"It's alright. You don't have to worry about me. I have a map in my hands. We can return without flying spirit beasts." Lin Yi shook his head.
Apart from searching for the Life Mushroom, his other goal was to make a breakthrough. If he returned with flying spirit beasts, it would be ineffective.
"Then … Alright, Senior, we'll return first. If you need anything in the future, you can look for me at the Blue Cloud Pavilion. We'll definitely go through fire and water for you." Huang Xiaotao immediately whistled to the sky, summoning the spirit bird that was circling above her. Then, she supported Cong Zhima and was about to leave.
However, at this moment, Lin Yi suddenly extended his hand and stopped them. He said with a serious expression, "Wait!"
Huang Xiaotao and the young man were shocked and couldn't help but feel terrified. They thought that Lin Yi was going to change his mind and was going to take back the Myriad Golden Pill Fruit in their hands.
However, they heard Lin Yi say, "Someone is coming. Don't take off first. Run in this direction for a while before leaving. I'll stay here and cover for you."
The jade was already warning him, and Lin Yi could sense an extremely strong aura rapidly approaching them. If Huang Xiaotao were to take off now, she'd be too obvious a target, and it'd be easy for someone to target her.
Huang Xiaotao and the young man then realized that they had misunderstood Lin Yi and felt extremely guilty. However, when they saw Lin Yi's serious expression, they knew that the situation was urgent. They didn't say anything else and quickly left with the spirit bird after telling him to be careful.
After watching Huang Xiaotao and the young man leave, Lin Yi stayed where he was and continued to wait. Judging from the other party's obvious intentions, he had a hunch that the other party was also here for the Myriad Golden Pill Fruit.
Soon, a middle-aged man who maintained his appearance as if he was in his forties appeared above Lin Yi's head on a flying spirit beast. After looking at the situation on the ground, he immediately descended from the sky and landed in front of Lin Yi.
The middle-aged man looked at Lin Yi coldly and said playfully, "The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. He said playfully, "The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. I didn't expect a little sparrow like you to get ahead of me. What are you waiting for? Take it out quickly! "
"What is it?" Lin Yi pretended to be at a loss.
"Humph, a mere late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator dares to play tricks on me? Fine, then you don't have to take it. When you're dead, I'll personally search your body for it! "After the middle-aged man finished speaking, his aura skyrocketed. In an instant, it became even more horrifying and violent.
Lin Yi was instantly shocked. Judging from this aura, the strength of this middle-aged man in front of him was at least a Golden Core intermediate stage expert!
Lin Yi originally thought that those who came to Hucai Tian Wu Mountain for a trial mission would at most be experts at the peak of Foundation Establishment. It was unlikely that they would meet any Golden Core experts. After all, which Golden Core expert would lower himself to come to a place like this to collect spiritual herbs?
But he didn't expect … Now, not only did he encounter a Golden Core Stage expert, but he was also in the middle stage of the Golden Core Stage. This was an unprecedentedly strong enemy!
While Lin Yi was still in shock, the middle-aged man had already made his move. With a casual wave of his hand, a ferocious giant claw condensed from True Qi suddenly appeared above Lin Yi's head without warning.
If Lin Yi hadn't reacted fast enough and used all his strength to activate the Butterfly Subtle Steps, he would have escaped in the nick of time. Just this claw alone could seriously injure him, and it was not impossible for it to kill him in one blow!
A Golden Core intermediate stage expert was really not to be trifled with! Lin Yi's heart was in awe. However, before he could heave a sigh of relief, another two ferocious giant claws enveloped him, accompanied by the middle-aged man's sneer, "A mere late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, to be able to escape my claw, you're not bad. Unfortunately, you still can't escape death today!"
The two giant claws surrounded him from left and right, not giving Lin Yi a chance to react and dodge again. Even if he used the Butterfly Subtle Steps, he couldn't completely dodge this time. Blindly escaping would only lead to death. In desperation, Lin Yi had no choice but to brace himself and choose to face it head-on!
Twenty-eight styles of Raging Fire Eight Trigrams Palm! Choosing one of the ferocious giant claws, Lin Yi clenched his teeth and fiercely struck out with his palm. At the same time, his figure followed closely behind, ready to wait for an opportunity to break out. This was already the strongest martial art he had mastered at the moment. If even this couldn't break the opponent's giant claws, then it would really be dangerous today.
Boom! The Raging Fire Eight Trigrams Palm hit the giant claws head-on without any suspense. The incomparably brutal True Qi madly collided, instantly setting off a terrifying storm. The vegetation within a radius of a hundred feet was all flattened and swept up into the sky by the storm caused by the powerful True Qi. For a moment, the sky was covered, as if the end of the world had come.
"Hmm? Unexpectedly, the power is no less than that of the early-stage Gold Core. Kid, where did you come from? "The middle-aged man couldn't help but frown.
An ordinary late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator wouldn't even have a complete corpse, let alone contend with his giant claws. The kid in front of him was a complete anomaly.
However, even with the powerful power comparable to that of the early-stage Gold Core, compared to a real mid-stage Gold Core master, there was still a big gap. They were not on the same level at all.
Bang! Amidst the chaos, Lin Yi's figure flew out like an arrow, and he spat out a mouthful of dazzling and captivating red blood out of thin air. In a single move, he'd shockingly suffered a heavy internal injury.
The 28th move of the Raging Fire Eight Trigrams Palm was unable to block the opponent's savage giant claws in the end, and in the end, it was only able to offset a portion of the opponent's power. Although Lin Yi wasn't killed directly, his internal organs had already been shaken to the point of shifting, and his stomach was like a raging sea. His situation was worrying.
"Oh? You're actually not dead? Kid, you've really made me look at you in a new light. A mere late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator being able to hold on to this extent, you can be considered to be a rare genius figure. But unfortunately, I've never known how to cherish geniuses. What's even more embarrassing is that my greatest hobby is to strangle you so-called geniuses! "The middle-aged man laughed coldly without end.
As he spoke, the middle-aged man's expression abruptly became extremely ghastly and cruel, and out of thin air, another two savage giant claws struck out of thin air. This time, Lin Yi even faintly heard a roar that seemed to come from an ancient ferocious beast!
Lin Yi's expression changed greatly when he saw this, and he couldn't care about the sharp pain coming from his internal organs as he gritted his teeth and urged the Butterfly Subtle Steps with all his strength.
Bang! Grass and wood splattered as Lin Yi was once again scratched by the giant claws, and his entire body was sent flying by his True Qi once more. Moreover, his internal injuries that were already not light had worsened a step further.
"If this goes on, I'll undoubtedly die today!" Lin Yi knew in his heart that the current situation had already arrived at a moment of life and death. If he still didn't take out an effective countermeasure, then perhaps he would die miserably here in the next moment.
