Chapter 63: Escaping Death

  Just as Lin Yun felt his physical strength gradually failing him, a series of wolf howls kept coming from all around.

  Upon hearing the wolf's howl, Lin Yun's heart suddenly felt a thrill of excitement. However, it was unknown why the Man-Eating Ape Tribe and the Wolf Tribe had started fighting earlier, and they were at each other's throats.

  At this time, the wolf pack appeared and helped him a great deal. Otherwise, in this situation, he would have been exhausted to death sooner or later. In an instant, wave after wave of wolves rushed forward and directly clashed with the man-eating ape.

  The Man-Eating Ape King never expected that at this time, the wolf pack would come and not continue to surround humans, but instead organize the Man-Eating Apes to immediately disperse in all directions. In an instant, the Man-Eating Apes and the wolf pack engaged in a fierce battle once again, with the situation being extremely intense.

  The cannibal apes around him immediately disappeared, rushing towards the wolf pack. Lin Yun finally let out a sigh of relief, tightly gripping the purple sword in his hand as he quickly rushed towards the cannibal apes. This time, with the addition of the wolf pack to the battle, it was just the right opportunity to deal with the cannibal ape tribe once and for all. With Lingbo's subtle steps, Lin Yun's figure had already reached an extreme speed.

  Darting left and right, Lin Yun did his best to avoid the pack of wolves, his purple sword constantly slashing at the man-eating apes. With the protection of the Vajra shield, even if he was slapped by a palm, nothing would happen. As time passed, the wolf pack seemed to have realized that this human was helping their side, and for some reason, they didn't confront Lin Yun head-on anymore.

  Watching humans constantly killing their own kind, the Man-Eating Ape King was thoroughly enraged, waving its two fluffy big palms and slapping them towards humans fiercely. It's also a speechless matter to say that the Man-Eating Ape King's cultivation had already reached Pre-Heaven Third Level Spirit Beast, with extremely strong power, but its speed was incomparably slow. Not to mention those of the same level, even first-level experts far surpassed the Man-Eating Ape King in terms of speed.

  No matter whether it's the wolf pack or Lin Yun, their speed is many times faster than that of the man-eating apes. It's precisely because of this that in the battle between the two major races, the ones who end up suffering a loss are still the man-eating apes.

  Watching the Man-Eating Ape King charging towards him, Lin Yun didn't plan on confronting the Man-Eating Ape King head-on at all. The speed of Ling Bo's micro-steps was simply not something that the Man-Eating Ape King could compare to.

  Killed countless man-eating apes, Lin Yun also felt that he was indeed a bit tired. He withdrew from the battle between the two major races and turned around to leave quickly. The man-eating ape tribe wanted to chase him, but they were powerless. After all, all of the man-eating apes were trapped by the wolf pack and couldn't escape for the time being.

  On a remote boulder, Lin Yun sat on top of it, quietly cultivating himself. The battle just now, although not thrilling, was completely a narrow escape from death. If the wolf pack hadn't suddenly appeared at the last moment, he might have been swallowed alive by the man-eating ape.

  The battle just now, although it was thrilling, but had to admit that a warrior can only improve his strength at the fastest speed in a life-and-death battle. Just one battle, and the second move of Jian Chi Jing was promoted to Da Cheng. Next, after his cultivation breaks through Chi Xing Jing, he can continue to cultivate Jian Chi Jing's upper realm, Jian Cheng Jing.

  This time, after fighting with the man-eating ape, not only did he raise the second move of Sword Red Mirror to Great Perfection, but also cultivated the Inner Heart Method within the Scarlet Star Realm to Great Perfection. Under this situation, he can soon continue to cultivate the Orange Star Boundary.

  Without continuing to linger, Lin Yun found a giant tree that pierced the sky, and just as he landed on a thick branch, his soul quickly entered the Purple Elegy Sword.

  Inside the Sword Prison

  "Sir, what are your instructions? Just give me the order. As long as I, Ice and Fire, can do it, even if it means going up a knife mountain or down a sea of fire, I will definitely try my best to accomplish it."

  Can't help but admit, Ice Fire Giant Python this flattering, even Lin Yun, also stared at him fiercely. Of course, he knew what it meant for Ice Fire Giant Python to keep flattering himself.

  "Alright, stop flattering me, I have some questions for you now."

  "Hey, adults can ask me anything, as long as I know it, I'll definitely tell you everything."

  "Have you always lived in the Heavenly Punishment Forest?"

  "That's right, I was born in the Heavenly Punishment Forest."

  "Alright, now I'll ask you, about the Heavenly Punishment Forest."

  "Sir, what would you like to know?"

  What do you want to know?

  "Tell me about what's going on inside the Heavenly Punishment Forest. We've always been wandering around the outer layers, and have never entered the interior of the Heavenly Punishment Forest before."

  As for the Heavenly Punishment Forest, Lin Yun was very curious. After all, the Heavenly Punishment Forest was famous throughout the entire continent and was the lair of spiritual beasts. Generally, warriors who wanted to obtain their innate martial techniques would enter the Heavenly Punishment Forest. However, no matter who it was, they would usually only obtain their innate martial techniques at the outer edges of the forest and not dare to venture into its interior. This was because there were rumors that the interior of the Heavenly Punishment Forest had powerful spiritual beasts, such as the Extraordinary Spiritual Beast.

  "Actually, it's like this, sir. To be honest with you, the entire Heavenly Punishment Forest is divided into three major parts. The outermost part is where the Post-Heavenly Spiritual Beasts and Pre-Heavenly Spiritual Beasts gather, while the second part is the stronghold of the Transcendent Spiritual Beasts. As for the third part, it's a legendary place, said to be the lair of the Void Spiritual Beasts. However, I don't know if there really are any Void Spiritual Beasts in the innermost layer of the Heavenly Punishment Forest."

  Three parts?

  As for the Tianfa Forest having a Devouring Spirit Beast, Lin Yun didn't feel any surprise at all. As for whether or not there was a Void Spirit Beast, according to what Binghuo Jitian said, it's still an unknown number whether or not there is one in the Tianfa Forest. After all, Void Spirit Beasts are the strongest existences in this world and are rarely seen under normal circumstances.

  "Continue."

  "What's going on?"

  "I want to know if there are any treasures in the Heavenly Punishment Forest?"

  "Treasure?" He lowered his head and began to ponder, while Lin Yun didn't urge him. The Ice Fire Giant Python thought for a long time, seemingly having thought of something. The Ice Fire Giant Python said: "Right, sir, the Heavenly Punishment Forest has always had a legend, that is, in the deepest part of the Heavenly Punishment Forest, which is also the Void Territory, there is a legendary treasure."

  Legendary treasure?

  As for the treasure mentioned by the Ice and Fire Giant Python, Lin Yun was very interested and asked: "What is this treasure in the Void Territory?"

  Void Border, the deepest part of the Heavenly Punishment Forest.

  The Heavenly Punishment Forest is divided into three parts. The first part is the Pre-Heavenly Boundary, the second part is the Transcendent Boundary, and the third part is the Void Boundary. As for whether there are Void Spiritual Beasts in the Void Boundary, no one knows. Even if there are treasures in the Void Boundary, it's unlikely that anyone would dare to enter easily.

  "But this is unknown, however, according to legend, this treasure lies in the very center of the Void Realm, a place called the Boundary Within the Boundary."

  Boundary within boundary?

  Next, Lin Yun casually asked some questions about the Heavenly Punishment Forest, and then left the Sword Prison to continue practicing the inner skill and sword moves of the Sword Remnant Chapter for a while before getting up and leaving the mountain cave.

  Returning to the battlefield of yesterday, I found that the ground was littered with the corpses of man-eating apes and wolf packs. Upon closer inspection, there were nearly a hundred corpses of both species combined on the ground. Although this number may not seem significant for the two major tribes, at this rate, they will eventually be wiped out.

  Don't stay here for another minute, after all, the corpse of the man-eating ape is too smelly, it's unbearable. At this time, a loud roar echoed through the entire Tianfa Forest. Next, Lin Yun saw several black and gray shadows flashing by quickly, and was shocked in his heart. Lin Yun didn't stay any longer either, and followed the black shadows to leave quickly.

  The black shadow was indeed a pack of wolves. According to Lin Yun's speculation, the place where the wolf pack went might be where they discovered the Man-Eating Ape Tribe. After all, the two major tribes had been at war for so long that it seemed like only one side could emerge victorious. If it were any other two major tribes, he wouldn't have bothered to intervene, but among the warring tribes was the Man-Eating Ape Tribe, a tribe with a deep grudge against him.

  The current situation is that even if he doesn't look for trouble with the man-eating ape tribe, it's believed that the man-eating ape tribe won't let him off either. As for what reason, it's believed to be because that night, he killed nearly two hundred of the man-eating apes. The king of the man-eating apes will definitely kill him. If that's the case, then it's just right to take this opportunity to borrow the wolf pack and wipe out the man-eating ape tribe in one go. This way, when he enters the Heavenly Punishment Forest later on, he can also save some trouble.

  The number of man-eating apes is simply too many, let alone that among the man-eating apes, there is also a congenital third-level spiritual beast. If every time entering the Heavenly Punishment Forest is entangled by the man-eating apes, it would be very depressing.

  Following the wolf pack all the way down, they arrived at a huge valley in front of them. The entire valley was surrounded by swamps, with only the eastern entrance being flat and accessible. At the eastern entrance of the valley, there were densely packed wolves, each staring with evil eyes, fixedly gazing at the entrance in front of them. And at the very front of the densely packed wolf pack, there was a nearly four-meter-long pure black wolf, which was the king of the wolf pack and also a congenital third-level spiritual beast.

  Looking at the dense pack of wolves not far away, Lin Yun swept his eyes over them and already had a rough estimate in his mind - tens of thousands of wolves. What a terrifying wolf pack! He was very clear that even if he had reached the level of an entry-level warrior now, if he were to encounter this pack of wolves, there would only be one outcome: death. After all, the wolf pack was too numerous and wouldn't engage in single combat with him; as long as they gang up on him, Lin Yun believed that their power would be enough to overwhelm any other spirit beast of the same level.

  At this moment, a group of man-eating apes slowly walked out from the depths of the vast mountain valley. The one walking at the forefront was none other than the leader of the man-eating ape tribe, the Man-Eating Ape King, who was also a congenital third-level spiritual beast.
