Bing State, Wilderness.

Lin Batian’s words made Xiao Lingyue take another look at him. She didn’t know Lin Batian, even though she used to be the saint of the Spiritual Moon Sect. But she still didn’t pay much attention to the affairs of the Qing State.

"Are you here for that Aurora falcon?"

"Of course! You stole my grandson’s beast pet. How can I not come? Do you know how much a fourth-order Aurora falcon is worth?"

Lin Batian stated matter-of-factly that it is very expensive to cultivate a fourth-order spirit pet. It takes at least a hundred years or more and requires constant investment. It’s even more expensive than cultivating a Nascent Soul disciple.

"Taoist friend, I am willing to pay a high price to buy that Aurora falcon."

Xiao Lingyue said that she was genuinely surprised now. A golden core cultivator not only brought several Nascent Soul disciples, but also had Soul Changing as a backer. The background really matters in this world.

"You can’t afford it."

"I’m willing to exchange it for the Divine Phoenix Demon Bone."

"Divine Phoenix Demon Bone, have you been to the Ancient Phoenix Secret Realm?"

"Yes, I recently came out of the Ancient Phoenix Secret Realm. What do you think?"

"I…"

"Friend Lin, the Taoist"

The anxious Spiritual Moon Sect’s Soul Changing cultivator watched as Lin Batian was being bought off. How could she not be anxious? She couldn’t defeat two Soul Changing cultivators, even if Lin Batian didn’t lay a hand on her, she might not be able to catch Xiao Lingyue either.

"Cough cough, I apologize, I am not a greedy person. Besides, this beast pet is not mine, it belongs to my grandson. Our Lin family is known for being open-minded. As the ancestor, how could I covet the money of the younger generation?"

Lin Batian said firmly. The Divine Phoenix Demon Bone is indeed a treasure, but it doesn’t have any use for him right now. He’s not tempted.

"That Taoist friend stepped aside to watch the battle, waiting for me and my master to resolve our grievances before discussing further."

"Okay, you guys continue. I’m sorry, as an outsider, it’s not convenient for me to interfere with your Spiritual Moon Sect’s matters."

Lin Batian smiled and then retreated to the side.

The Soul Changing cultivator of the Spiritual Moon Sect was speechless. Lin Batian changed his attitude too quickly. Just a moment ago, he was saying that he would join forces to deal with Xiao Lingyue. And Xiao Lingyue was so foolish, not caring that there was an unfamiliar Soul Changing cultivator nearby. Wasn’t she afraid of being used as bait?

But Xiao Lingyue didn’t care about that. She drew her sword and said. Master, I’ve come to seek your guidance.

After saying that, she attacked the Spiritual Moon Sect’s Soul Changing cultivator with her sword. Both of them were from the same sect, inheriting the same teachings, and their techniques were similar. It was difficult to distinguish who had the upper hand.

"The Spiritual Moon Sect is not good."

Lin Batian watched their battle and noticed numerous flaws. Moreover, their attacks were weak. He really couldn’t help but be unimpressed.

"Xiao Lingyue just broke through to Soul Changing a few years ago, so it’s understandable that she can’t fully utilize her Soul Changing techniques. But this Soul Changing cultivator from the Spiritual Moon Sect seems older in age, yet so weak."

Lin Batian watched the two people fight and became more and more disgusted. Xiao Lingyue’s master is not young anymore, but his attack power is really weak, and she doesn’t know why.

The Soul Changing cultivator of the Spiritual Moon Sect naturally had their own difficulties. The Spiritual Moon Sect is flourishing in the deep central region under Xu Mingyue’s leadership, and the sect has a tradition of arranging marriages for its disciples. It can be said that friends and relatives are scattered throughout the central region. With so many relatives and friends, there are fewer fights and battles. After she advanced to Soul Changing, she rarely fought with others. She hadn’t fought with anyone for hundreds of years and lost her fierceness from her youth.

"Dharma body, go."

The Soul Changing cultivator of the Spiritual Moon Sect gritted their teeth and displayed the Soul Changing Dharma Appearance. Although she hadn’t been active for many years, her cultivation foundation was there, and she was determined to overpower others.

Faced with her master’s Soul Changing Dharma Appearance, Xiao Lingyue frowned. The Soul Changing Dharma Appearance is the basic ability of Soul Changing, but she doesn’t know it yet because she recently broke through to Soul Changing and didn’t have time to condense her Soul Changing Dharma Appearance.

"Frozen for a thousand miles."

Xiao Lingyue also used her trump card, even though she didn’t have the Soul Changing Dharma Appearance, she still had other opposing methods.

Xiao Lingyue cast a large spell, and suddenly snowflakes floated within a radius of a hundred miles. These delicate snowflakes concealed lethality, and the ground began to freeze inch by inch, as if entering a world of ice and snow.

"Something seems wrong. This is not the movement that can be caused by an Ice Spiritual Root."

There was no ice around Lin Batian, and the cold air moved away from him automatically. Lin Batian reached out his hand and grabbed a handful of snowflakes, smelling them with his nose.

At this moment, a sudden change happened on the field. Xiao Lingyue created an ice dragon on the frozen landscape, fighting against the dharma body of a cultivator from the Spiritual Moon Sect. The ice dragon was shattered several times but quickly reformed. Both sides engaged in a battle of attrition, waiting to see who would give in first.

"Taoist Friend Lin, I am willing to return Aurora falcon. Please help me fend off the enemy."

"If I don’t take action, you must return it as well."

Lin Batian said calmly. This woman must be confused. Is she the one who can determine if she want to return it or not?

"I am willing to give the Divine Phoenix Demon Bone as a gift."

"Killing you, it will be mine too."

"You…"

"Stop talking and start fighting. Finish it quickly."

Lin Batian was getting impatient, being indecisive and clueless.

"Bold human, dare to act recklessly on our demon territory."

The fight between the two was still undecided when a furious roar sounded. Lin Batian turned around and saw a ferocious beast, resembling a lion, appear.

This place was deep in the Wilderness, and the intense battle of the two Soul Changing beings frightened countless beasts. Xiao Lingyue’s powerful spell also affected many other beasts. The demons hiding here could no longer tolerate it and called forth the fifth-order Demon King to intervene.

"Beast with blue eyes and green hair"

Both the Soul Changing cultivator from Spiritual Moon Sect and Xiao Lingyue were shocked. They recognized the identity of this ferocious beast, which could reign as a king among the demons. It was either a divine or exotic beast with formidable strength, surpassing others of the same level. This Blue-eyed Green-haired Beast was already in the late stage of the fifth order and was more than capable of killing them.

"Hahaha, dear Taoist friend, don’t worry. You continue, and I’ll handle it."

Lin Batian laughed loudly, then took out the Slaying God Spear and charged directly at the Blue-eyed Green-haired Beast.

"Roar"

The Blue-eyed Green-haired Beast saw Lin Batian approaching and immediately roared in anger, releasing a sound wave from its mouth that headed straight for Lin Batian.

"Ribbit ribbit!"

Lin Batian quickly stabbed with his spear, dispersing the sound wave.

Frustrated that his attack was easily deflected, the Blue-eyed Green-haired Beast suddenly grew several hundred times in size, transforming into an immensely gigantic creature, and slapped a massive palm towards Lin Batian.

"Dharma body, appear!"

Lin Batian summoned his dharma body, which matched the size of the Blue-eyed Green-haired Beast. The spear in his hand was extremely agile, piercing the beast mercilessly with every strike, causing it to cry out in pain.

"Soul-devouring curse!"

Desperate, the Blue-eyed Green-haired Beast immediately unleashed its innate ability, the soul-devouring curse. A transparent beast head lunged towards Lin Batian, attempting to bite him.

This curse was fueled by the power of the soul, rendering spiritual energy almost ineffective against it. It specialized in attacking the enemy’s soul, causing countless demonic creatures in the Wilderness to suffer under its effects.

The Soul Changing cultivator from the Spiritual Moon Sect and Xiao Lingyue ignored each other’s fighting, constantly retreating, fearing being affected.

Lin Batian frowned, but he remained fearless. He put away his Slaying God Spear and made a hand gesture with his hands, causing a huge transparent shield to appear.

"Boom!"

The transparent beast’s head rammed into the transparent shield, biting repeatedly, but couldn’t harm it at all.

After a dozen rounds, the transparent shield and the transparent beast’s head disappeared at the same time, unable to harm each other.

The Blue-eyed Green-haired Beast widened his eyes in disbelief. He couldn’t understand why his special skills had no effect at all. This made him feel like giving up. He thought, "Let them fight, as long as they don’t bother me. Those monsters are not my kind, so it’s not my concern."

"Human, just you wait. I’ll go call my big brother."

The Blue-eyed Green-haired Beast shouted loudly, then quickly vanished in the blink of an eye, leaving Lin Batian unable to react to the speed.

"Wow, are the creatures in the Wilderness so sneaky?"

Lin Batian was astonished, he kind of missed the once mighty Heavenly Wolf King. Heavenly Wolf King was so tough and determined, willing to fight to the death even when severely injured. Unlike this guy who ran away before giving his all.

Lin Batian didn’t bother to chase after him. Despite the fact that the Blue-eyed Green-haired Beast was howling in pain just now, it was only superficial wounds, nothing serious. Besides, this place was the territory of the demonic beings. If a sixth or seventh rank demonic being showed up, he wouldn’t stand a chance.

"You guys carry on."

Lin Batian turned back and said to the two of them. Why did you stop fighting? Keep going!

At this point, the two of them didn’t have the intention to continue fighting. They both had the cultivation of Soul Changing, but their spiritual senses couldn’t see through Lin Batian’ true strength. Previously, they thought Lin Batian was just at the early stage of Soul Changing, at the same level as them, and at most slightly stronger in power.

But now that Lin Batian easily drove away the Blue-eyed Green-haired Beast, they realized their misjudgment. Even if they joined forces, they wouldn’t be a match.

"Respected Taoist Friend Lin, I admire your skills and talents. I am willing to return the Aurora falcon to you."

"Great, hand it over, please."

"Taoist Friend Lin, Lingyue has one more thing to ask."

"Quickly release your gas."

"Lingyue begged the Taoist friend to help me kill this person. Lingyue is willing to serve the Taoist friend with her body."

"Ah."

Lin Batian exclaimed and stared at Xiao Lingyue without stopping. Xiao Lingyue also took off the mask on her face, revealing her exquisite appearance.

Xiao Lingyue is confident in her own appearance. For hundreds of years, countless people have fallen for her beauty, including Duanmu Ling, the Chief of the Shenmu Sect Nascent Soul, who fell in love with her not long ago.

"Are you serious?"

"Yes, Lingyue believes that choosing a husband is like choosing a master. It should be someone strong to follow. The Taoist friend’s strength is unrivaled, Lingyue has never seen such power, and has already fallen in love. Please, Taoist friend, have pity on her."

"I know I’m impressive, but…"

"But what?"

"But I am not good with seduction."

Lin Batian felt lost. If he brought this woman back, Lin Die and Lin Ying would be furious. He was already at an age where he wanted to settle down and start a family. Compared to a woman, he chose his daughter.
