Chapter 86: Brushing Merit Points

  Soon, the Vampire Queen summoned two of the lowest-level Flame Black Tigers.

  This time Lin Xi's battle wasn't as easy as before. However, the last two Flame Black Tigers still died under Lin Xi's hands.

  Next is the three-headed flame black tiger.

  When the number increased to four blazing black tigers, in Vampire Queen Camilla's eyes, there were already little stars.

  The queen, although cold and noble, will also be heartbroken for the strong, lowering her noble head.

  Lin Xi single-handedly took on four opponents, a scene that seemed as if the invincible Overlord had descended upon the mortal realm. For this queen among women, it was like a strong aphrodisiac, her body even feeling slightly hot and flushed.

  In the end, the number of fierce flame black tigers stabilized at five. The reason for the increase was not because Lin Xi's strength was so powerful, but because the vampire queen Camilla also joined the battle.

  Lin Xi let Camilla, the Vampire Queen, choose from the weakest Lianqi Realm's Blazing Black Tigers on the Hei Huo Mountains.

  Anyway, the task description is to kill a fierce beast in the Refining Qi realm, and the reward is 30 points of merit value. However, it did not mention that too weak fierce beasts are not allowed.

  Lin Xi was straightforward, borrowing those weakest Flame Black Tigers to brush up on his merit points. Although the stronger ones with a heavier aura of flame could also be defeated.

  But fighting would take time and consume a lot of energy, and the reward hadn't changed. Lin Xi naturally wouldn't do such a thing that wasn't worth it.

  "Master, someone is coming towards us."

  When the hunt was over, Queen Camilla suddenly stopped. Her gaze turned southward, and she clearly felt that three strong breaths were approaching here.

  "Oh?"

  Lin Xi blinked and didn't pay much attention. He continued to use the Fa Xian sword to cut open the body of Lie Yan Hei Hu, obtaining the Black Tiger's heart and beast dan within.

  "There are three people, and the aura on their bodies is very familiar. It's the aura of your Shenyue Sect disciples."

  Camila continued.

  Lin Xi's movements stopped, and he raised his head:

  "Are you talking about the aura of the Shén Xiāo Zōng's disciples?"

  "Yes. From the beginning, I felt their presence. However, I didn't pay attention to it at that time. But they seem to have been approaching us all along."

  Camilla said with a serious expression: "Their strength is very strong. Stronger than the black-robed cultivator who injured me back then!"

  As a vampire tribe, the Vampire Queen is extremely sensitive to human blood and smell.

  These things, Lin Xi couldn't feel, but Camilla could.

  Lin Xi's eyes narrowed slightly, and a series of thoughts flashed through his pupils:

  "South... isn't that the direction we came from? It seems the Long family has indeed made their move."

  Lin Xi grabbed Camilla's ankle and flew over in a straight line. Not a single detour was made.

  However, the other party obviously didn't have it that easy. Volcanoes, rock pools, and all sorts of lava creatures popping up everywhere clearly made them take a lot of detours and wasted a lot of time.

  Lin Xi and Camilla have already arrived at the Black Tiger Mountain Range, having killed a number of Blazing Black Tigers before Xian'er's late arrival.

  "Never mind them for now, they might be other Xian Dao disciples from Shen Xiao Sect who have received a different task. Let's ignore them for the time being and change our location. If they still come after us, then there must be a problem. At that time, we won't need to show mercy."

  Lin Xiwei thought for a moment and immediately came up with a plan.

  The task of obtaining dragon's blood grass, dragon's blood fruit and dragon bones may not have been received by him alone. The person who came might be from the Dragon World family, or it could be someone else.

  Lin Xi didn't intentionally imagine everyone as enemies. More importantly, every fierce beast here was a meritorious value, and if the other party wasn't from the Dragon Clan, once they clashed, they would inevitably fight for these meritorious values.

  Lin Xi bought three gas-increasing pills, and the lucky box was empty, a true one clear and two white. Such a good opportunity to earn merit points, how can it be missed.

  Lin Xi quickly checked his gains and now had 30 Flame Black Tiger hearts and 30 Light Black Beast Cores. These were the lowest-grade Refining Qi Realm fierce beast cores, but compared to the martial path's tenth-level fierce beasts, they were in a completely different league.

  According to the task reward rules, Lin Xi's contribution value here is 900.

  This is a huge fortune! For Lin Xi who has always been honest and upright, it's truly a staggering sum.

  "Let's go!"

  The two threw the corpse of Lieyan Black Tiger into the depths of Hei Hu Shan, and then directly borrowed the flight ability of the Blood Sucking Queen to fly over from high altitude.

  "Roar! ——"

  On the Hei Hu mountain range, a surge of energy was brewing. A black tiger with flames saw two people in the sky and let out a frantic roar. However, it had no way to do anything about it.

  There were several fierce black tigers, suddenly jumping up to several hundred feet high, tearing and scratching, spitting flames, but still couldn't reach the Blood Queen.

  Whether it's flying speed or flying height, the Vampire Queen is much stronger than other vampire witches.

  "Damn it! Let him get away again!"

  No sooner had the two men left than Cao Long, Cao Hu and Cao Bao, three brothers, appeared at the foot of Hei Hu Mountain. The three looked up at a black dot in the sky that quickly disappeared, but they were powerless to do anything about it.

  "Who can tell me why there is a blood-sucking queen beside this little guy?"

  Cao Jiao gazed up at the sky and said with a sigh of resentment.

  All three of them were formal disciples of the Shen Ying Sect, although they were only outer circle disciples, their vision and experience were not low. At a glance, it was clear that only the Vampire Queen could fly so high and so fast.

  "At this speed, we can't catch up with him!"

  Three people looked at the direction where Lin Xi disappeared, with a deep sense of powerlessness.

  The Hei Hu mountain range is extremely vast, and it's impossible to jump over it. If you want to go around it, you'll have to take a very long detour.

  "For now, let's put off the matter of revenge. Since we've arrived at Black Tiger Mountain Range, it wouldn't make sense to return empty-handed. Let's earn some merit points first."

  However, when the three of them hunted down the black tiger, they suddenly discovered that on the mountain range, the weaker black tigers had all disappeared. The remaining ones were all quite powerful Blazing Black Tigers, and they seemed to have been enraged by something earlier...

  …………

  Hei Hu mountain range used to be volcanic plain.

  On this plain, there are giant red volcanoes everywhere, one after another, straight into the sky, high and immeasurable.

  The most common fierce beast in the Volcanic Plains' Refining Qi Realm is the Volcanic Giant Python. They live in the volcanic mouths, are enormous, and feed on magma.

  Their bodies are all reddish-brown and extremely hard. Moreover, they have horns on their heads, to a certain extent, the volcano giant python is already very close to a dragon.

  Some of the powerful volcanic pythons, Lin Xi's law sword couldn't even scratch. These volcanic pythons, on the other hand, were as if they didn't exist. Some of the fierce volcanic pythons could even stir up scarlet flame storms between heaven and earth, filling the sky with scarlet mist.

  Those powerful volcanic pythons, Lin Xi didn't even dare to move.

  After killing five small and weakest volcanic pythons, Lin Xi took the inner dan and left with the blood-sucking queen.

  After the volcanic plateau, finally some normal scenery.

  The mountains and forests are like a carpet, unfolding piece by piece. Some deep green, nameless wild grasses grow all over the hills. Flying here, I finally got rid of that feeling of being in a hellish lava.

  "It's finally not so hot anymore."

  Lin Xi let out a breath of relief. This is what a normal space should look like.

  Peak after peak of mountains, although trees don't have as much space as they normally would, and aren't as lush, at least some trees can be seen.

  "Ah! ——"

  Suddenly, a scream came from afar.

  "What! There's someone here too!"

  Lin Xi was startled and looked in the direction where the voice came from.

  "Camilla, your sense of smell is different from ordinary people. Take a sniff, are you or aren't you a disciple of our Shen Xiao Sect?"

  Lin Xi turned his head and glanced at Camilla.

  If possible, Lin Xi did not want to meet other Tianya Sect disciples who were executing the Black Dragon Gate mission. Most of those who could take on this task were outer sect disciples. He and these named disciples had no common language.

  "No."

  Camilla had been frowning since just now, her eyes were full of doubts:

  "It doesn't seem like the aura of a Shen Xiao Sect disciple. Master, does the Black Dragon Gate that your Shen Xiao Sect cultivates also exist in other sects?"

  Camilla has some understanding of the Xian Dao world, but it's still far from being proficient.

  "Hei Long Zhi Men" is the elder's trial of the Shen Xiao Sect. In theory, only members of the Shen Xiao Sect can use "Hei Long Zhi Men" to enter the Black Dragon Space.

  "I'm not clear."

  Lin Xi shook her head:

  "The task of this door, logically, can only be accepted and completed by the disciples of this door. The number of disciples in our Shen Xiao Sect is over 10,000, and the task of the Time-Space Door is simply not enough to go around. How could we possibly let the Time-Space Door fall into the hands of outsiders? Logically, only people from our Shen Xiao Sect should be able to enter this Black Dragon Space. However, this isn't necessarily the case."

  "What did you say?"

  Camila was stunned.

  Lin Xi's eyes gleamed with thought as he recalled the contents of "The Great World of Xian Dao", and he opened his mouth to say:

  "There are as many dimensions and planes in the universe as there are grains of sand in the Ganges River. The probability of discovering the same dimension or plane is extremely low. But a low probability doesn't mean it can't be discovered. Some very valuable dimensions or planes may be simultaneously discovered by two powerful Xian Dao practitioners from different sects. — I suspect that other forces may also have inadvertently discovered the Black Dragon Space and come here to obtain something."

  "That's a bit of trouble."

  Camilla furrowed her brow, she hadn't forgotten that there were still three disciples of the Shen Xiao Sect following behind her.

  "Hmm! It's not necessarily that troublesome."

  Lin Xi smiled and waved his hand:

  "All of this is just my speculation. What's going on will be clear once you take a look. We'll see what happens then and act accordingly."

  The Vampire Queen nodded and grabbed Lin Xi, dashing towards the source of the scream like lightning.

  In just an instant, the two of them discovered the source of the scream.

  A group of female demons with eagle wings were besieging a group of people. These people wore uniforms, all sky-blue robes, with star and constellation signs on their chests.
