Lin Yang and Chen Feng traveled eastward, having heard of a mysterious spirit mine in an ancient mountain range that frequently produced precious spirit crystals. For them, who desperately needed cultivation resources, this was undoubtedly a huge temptation. After discussing it, the two decided to head to that mountain range to explore.
After several days of trekking, they finally arrived at the mountain range. The spiritual energy within the range was so rich it was intoxicating, and low-level demonic beasts could be seen roaming through the forest from time to time. Lin Yang and Chen Feng proceeded cautiously, wary of any movements around them.
Suddenly, the sounds of fierce fighting erupted ahead. The two exchanged a glance and stealthily approached. They saw a group of cultivators locked in a fierce battle with a colossal demonic beast. The beast resembled a rhinoceros, its body covered in thick, yellowish-brown scales, and its single horn gleamed with a metallic sheen. Each of its impacts caused the ground to tremble. Although the cultivators outnumbered the beast, they were being forced into a retreat.
Lin Yang's heart stirred; he felt this was a good opportunity to acquire cultivation resources. He said to Chen Feng, "Brother Chen, we can take this opportunity to trade with these cultivators, helping them slay demonic beasts and obtain spirit crystals." Chen Feng hesitated, "These demonic beasts are powerful; if we rashly participate, it might be dangerous." Lin Yang smiled confidently, "Don't worry, I have a plan."
Lin Yang took out some specially made talismans from the space within the coin's storage. These talismans were crafted using materials from the coin's storage and possessed powerful offensive capabilities. He said to Chen Feng, "Use these talismans to attack the demonic beast and attract its attention. I'll take the opportunity to find its weaknesses."
Chen Feng took the talisman and charged towards the demonic beast. He seized the opportunity and threw the talisman at the beast. The talisman instantly erupted with powerful light, striking the beast. The beast, in pain, angrily turned and pounced on Chen Feng. Lin Yang then took the opportunity to circle around behind the beast, observing its weaknesses.
After a fierce battle, Lin Yang discovered that the monster's abdomen was relatively weakly defended. Although it was covered with scales, there were gaps between them. He seized the opportunity and used a spell he had learned from Chen Feng, sending a sharp blade of spiritual energy piercing towards the monster's abdomen. The monster let out a miserable cry and collapsed to the ground.
Seeing the demonic beast slain, the cultivators gathered around. They looked at Lin Yang and Chen Feng gratefully, saying, "Thank you both so much for your help. If it weren't for you, we would all be dead today." Lin Yang smiled and said, "We're all in the cultivation world, so helping each other is only right. However, we've also expended a lot of energy. Could you share some spirit crystals as a reward?"
The cultivators discussed it briefly and agreed to Lin Yang's request. They took spirit crystals from the demonic beasts and shared some with Lin Yang and Chen Feng. Lin Yang looked at the spirit crystals in his hand, his heart filled with joy. This was not only a gain in cultivation resources, but also an important step in establishing himself in the cultivation world.
However, just as they were about to leave, a sinister laugh suddenly came from afar. "Hmph, do you think you can take the spirit crystal safely after killing this monster?" A group of men in black surrounded them from all directions. The leader of the men in black exuded a powerful aura, clearly indicating that his cultivation level was not low.
Lin Yang's heart tightened; he knew a fierce battle was about to begin. He quickly surveyed his surroundings, searching for possible escape routes, while simultaneously gripping his sword tightly, preparing to confront the men in black. The men in black surrounded them, and the atmosphere instantly became tense; a life-or-death struggle was about to unfold.
