Chapter 193: Karma
The three of them walked away, and Xuan Kun started hunting again.
In a lush green forest, Xuan Kun killed a sixth-level monster with one sword, and collected his monster pill and monster materials.
In the distance, a seventh-level monster passed by. Seeing this scene, Xuan Kun's face showed confusion.
He muttered to himself, "What's going on recently? There seems to be an increase in the number of Jindan-stage demonic beasts. Is another beast tide coming?"
Xuan Kun immediately shook his head and said again, "That's not right! Remember, it hasn't even been a year since the demon beast tide retreated. They shouldn't appear again."
Xuan Kun still remembered that when he had just broken through to the late Jindan stage, as soon as he came out of retreat, he encountered a tide of monsters coming, and the Monster Hunting Great Wall recruited Jindan monks to join the battle.
He managed to escape, but on the battlefield, the dead and wounded monks and monsters filled the land outside the Great Wall. The scene was a sea of blood and corpses.
If I enter the tide of monsters, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on for long and will die among countless monsters.
His body disappeared in the forest and turned into a stream of light rushing into the air. Xuan Kun had already reached the peak of the Jindan realm. In this monster land where there were no eighth-level transformed monsters, as long as he was not besieged, there was obviously no danger.
Looking down from a high vantage point at the earth below, he swept his Nascent Soul consciousness across the area and suddenly discovered that within the range of his consciousness, there were more than a dozen fifth to seventh level Jindan demon beasts. This number was really too many.
Xuan Kun couldn't help but feel a little scared, thinking to himself, "I remember that ten days ago, the density of demon beasts here shouldn't be this great. Within my spiritual sense range, there should only be a few Jindan demon beasts. It's only been less than ten days, how could there be such a huge change?"
Xuan Kun stood in the air and looked towards the east, where there was a vast land that was beyond the reach of the eyes. Going eastward, crossing the territory of monsters and beasts, it was the land of the monster clan.
Xuan Kun murmured, "The demon tribe? Could it be that the demon beasts from the demon tribe have strayed over and entered the demon beast territory, causing the demon beast population here to increase?"
Xuan Kun already knew the reason and couldn't help but understand why Shan Mingze and the others encountered the rioting group of monkey monsters. Although it seemed to have some relationship with Du Yuqi, it was more due to the addition of new monsters.
The attack on the monkey monster's living territory caused the monkey monsters to riot and chase after Lin Lingqi and the other two. However, the sixth and seventh level monkey monsters did not appear, obviously defending their own territory, otherwise the four of them might not have survived.
After thinking clearly about the reasons, Xuan Kun began to back down.
"It's better to go back during this period. I'm not afraid of the large number of monsters, but I'm afraid of encountering a transformed monster."
Xuan Kun was about to fly back to the Monster Hunting Wall when he suddenly saw a white light flying rapidly from the east.
His face changed and he cried out inwardly, "Oh no! Speak of the devil, here comes the devil."
At the same time, golden lightning flashed around his body, turning into a golden lightning that shot towards the west. His speed reached his limit and was still as fast as that of a Nascent Soul cultivator.
But he felt that the white figure behind him was moving faster, and under Xuan Kun's spiritual sense, it was getting closer to Xuan Kun little by little.
Xuan Kun was suddenly frightened, but his mind was extremely calm and normal as he was thinking.
"Oh no! That one behind us must be a transformed giant demon. I'm afraid it's not even an eighth-level demon, but perhaps a ninth-level one."
Xuan Kun felt that the person behind him was getting closer and closer, so fast that even his Nascent Soul consciousness could not capture it.
"I can't escape. Maybe the other party isn't coming for me. If I don't run, I won't die."
Xuan Kun understood that he had no chance of escaping, so he stopped in the air and waited for the other party to arrive.
The figure behind him also arrived in an instant and stopped directly in front of Xuan Kun.
This is a beautiful woman in her twenties, wearing a white dress, with white hair moving in the wind and the ends of her hair having colorful colors.
When Xuan Kun saw this person and felt the demonic aura emanating from her, it was obvious that she had reached the late Nascent Soul stage.
I couldn't help but sweat profusely, "No way! This is actually a tenth-level shapeshifting demon. Why am I so unlucky!"
He quickly bowed and said respectfully, "Greetings, Senior. I am traveling here and it is truly my honor to meet you. I wonder if you have any instructions for me."
The woman in the white dress couldn't help but laugh when she heard this. She said, "Whether it's sightseeing or killing monsters to get the elixir, we both know it."
Hearing this, Xuan Kun was ashamed and cursed inwardly, "You are a demon! How dare I say kill demons! Otherwise, you will slap me to death right here!"
Xuan Kun remained silent, preparing his words.
The woman in white spoke again, "Kill the monster to get the pill. It's not a monster from our race anyway. It's just a low-level monster beast, just like the low-level cultivators and mortals of your race, just ants."
Xuan Kun agreed with this. After all, cultivating immortals is all about seizing that ray of hope. Among mortals, a single success is achieved at the cost of countless sacrifices. For a cultivator, even more so would be the cost of countless sacrifices.
Xuan Kun was not a saintly person, but at this moment he still sighed, "Yes, yes, you are strong, you are right."
Just like the truth, the truth is in your hands, everything you say is right, if I dare to refute it, I will surely be met with bang bang bang.
Xuan Kun quickly agreed, "Senior is right. This is the path to immortality."
The woman in the white dress nodded and laughed, "Haha, I think you look familiar, but I can't quite place it."
After hearing this, Xuan Kun looked at the man with a hint of doubt in his eyes and spoke.
"This must be the first time I've met Senior, so how can we say we're familiar? Maybe it's because I look ordinary!"
After hearing this, the woman in the white dress did not respond. Instead, she thought for a while, smiled on her beautiful face, and spoke again.
"I remember now. You and I are destined to meet. Three years ago, when I came here to pick someone up, I sensed your presence, but it suddenly disappeared that time. I guess you had some secret way to hide away, or the presence you left behind hasn't dissipated yet, so I sensed it."
After he reminded him, Xuan Kun suddenly remembered that it was this person who scared him so much three years ago that he hid underground and dared not come out for a whole month.
I only dared to emerge from underground when it saw it. I thought it was an eighth-level transformed monster, but I didn't expect it to be a tenth-level transformed monster. I was so unlucky that I escaped it three years ago.
Today, we met again and were even recognized. This is karma! It's not that there is no retribution, it's just that the time has not come yet.
"It was this big monster three years ago. Is this karma coming? I'm afraid I can't escape it this time. But I can't admit it, otherwise I might be killed and the treasure taken away."
Although Xuan Kun had a lot of thoughts in his mind, his face was extremely calm. He showed a puzzled look, pretended to think, and then explained.
"I did come here to hunt monsters three years ago. I guess, as the senior said, these are probably some spiritual marks I left behind!"
