Seeking the Tao in the Mortal World

Chapter 63: Master of the Stele

Ye Ling had led the beastkins in a circle.

In fact, she really wanted to leave and never come back.

She had been trapped in the beastkin refining array since she was young. After escaping while bearing the extreme pain, she made a blood oath and became someone else’s servant. She was forced to look at her master’s gloomy face, then she was ordered to kill people.

Finally, she met Qin Yi who was kind to her. He canceled the blood oath and told her stories everydays. However, just a few days after her good days, she was almost killed by Ming He’s array. Before her injury was healed, she had to fight to the death with the eagle beastkin and the wolf beastkin again. Her body was torn by the wolf’s teeth.

Qin Yi said she was very powerful, but she never felt that she was powerful because she was always being abused.

So when something happened, her first reaction was to run away.

These beastkin monsters couldn’t outrun her at all, so she could run to the sea of ??skeletons and find a hole to hide…

But Qin Yi was fighting a bloody battle…

The only one who was good to her was Qin Yi… the one who stood in front of such a terrifying Ming He and protected her behind him…

She didn’t even understand why Qin Yi dared to face the three-eyed wolf beastkin alone even though he was no match for it. But no matter what, since Qin Yi was fighting, she would not hide.

Not only she couldn’t hide, but she couldn’t run too fast, lest these beastkin monsters ran back after being shaken off by her. She had to make them feel like they could catch her… then she couldn’t run too far. She had to turn back so that she wouldn’t be too far away from Qin Yi.

Ye Ling was still very smart to be able to understand Qin Yi’s intention; not a stupid snake.

At best, she was a coward snake.

“Swoosh!” As an ice spear was about to shoot Ye Ling, she quickly turned and hid behind a rock.

The beastkins encircled her from left and right.

“A bunch of stupid pigs.” Ye Ling spread her wings and flew over their heads, returning to where she came from.

A mosquito bigger than a ball flew toward her. It had a mouthpart as thick and long as a chopstick…

Ye Ling felt disgusted when she saw it. She subconsciously spat out a ball of black fire, trying to burn this disgusting thing.

She didn’t know that whenever she wanted to fight, her eyes would instantly become very fierce. The mosquito flapped its wings to deflect the black fire. When it met Ye Ling’s eyes, it suddenly felt a little frightened and subconsciously moved out of the way. Ye Ling flew past it directly.

Mosquito was stunned for a moment, not knowing why it was afraid just now, so it chased after her again.

Flying Serpent, a master of fear and terror, an ominous general.

Ye Ling couldn’t unleash her true talent at all and lacked a good combat awareness. If it was another experienced Flying Serpent, it could kill the mosquito with just one glance.

A little girl was running around the hill with a group of weird beastkin creatures. Deep in the clouds, there was a skinny old man holding a mirror and looking at this scene. He whispered to himself, “Flying Serpent… what a godsend.”

The old man thought for a while and changed the scene to the Blood Lotus. The Blood Lotus had 4 petals, and the fifth petal was more than half grown.

“It’s about time.” He suddenly smiled and muttered something.

The peach on the giant tree flew up inexplicably in the skirmish of the beastkins, flying toward Ye Ling. The bloodlusted beastkins were stunned for a while, then they chased after it.

The old man looked at this scene with satisfaction and anticipation, “The blood and beastkin pellet of the Flying Serpent… I wonder how many surprises it can give me.”

As soon as he said that, he was shocked suddenly, “Who is it?”

There was a loud noise in front of the cave house. His protective array was blown apart. A graceful figure vaguely appeared in the smoke and dust, slowly walking into the cave, “The dragon protects the Blood Lotus, and the beastkins chase the Flying Serpent, but you have never thought that you are actually very fragile?”

“How bold!” The old man made a seal, and lightning flashed in an instant.

The shadow suddenly approached, and a hurricane rolled up. There was no longer any light in the cave house.

During the fierce confrontation, the mirror was knocked off the corner. Ye Ling’s running figure was still reflected in the mirror. She went past a dead tree. A leopard was chasing tightly behind her.

Suddenly, a mace extended from the dead tree and smashed the head of the leopard.

Ye Ling shouted, “Brother, above you!”

It was Qin Yi who had been waiting for an ambush. As soon as he attacked, he immediately found a huge mosquito charging toward him from the sky. Qin Yi threw out the mace at the mosquito.

The mosquito quickly got out of the way, and the mace soared into the sky. It showed a ferocious smile, thinking that this human being was stupid. This human’s meager spiritual force has not reached the cultivation to control a weapon. This mace will be out of control after being thrown. Does he really think he can smash me with this throw?

It continued to swoop down. With just a sting, it could suck this ignorant human being dry.

Suddenly, a strong wind assaulted from behind. It subconsciously dodged, but it failed. Half of its body was erased by the mace.

It didn’t understand how this mace turned back and hit it.

Ye Ling turned back and said with great joy, “Brother is so awesome! We have nothing to be afraid of the few remaining ones!”

Qin Yi also relaxed a little. He looked at the 3 beastkins that were chasing after them and thought: With Ye Ling’s strength, there is a chance of winning this battle.

Just as he was thinking so, he suddenly noticed smoke billowing from the side as if there were countless beastkins rushing toward them, and a peach from the sky quickly fell onto Ye Ling’s head.

“What the hell is going on!” Qin Yi hit a perfect home run. The peach was hit into the sky and flew to nowhere.

The scene suddenly became a little quiet.

The beastkins recovered some sanity after the peach went far away. At the same time, they felt a little confused.

Qin Yi was also confused. He just swung the mace subconsciously. He didn’t expect the peach, which was obviously controlled by someone, to be so easily hit away. Is this a joke?

The next moment, all eyes fell on Qin Yi.

“Human……”

“Human with tender skin and flesh…”

“It’s been a long time since I’ve eaten human flesh. It smells so good…”

Countless beastkins approached with drooling words, “He is mine. Don’t even think about it…”

Qin Yi couldn’t help but complain: “Didn’t you see the peach flying away? Go fight for it!?

A moment before, Ye Ling was their target. The next moment, he became the food that all beastkin sought after.

“Boom!”

Countless spells came from all directions. Ye Ling quickly transformed into her true form and flew away with Qin Yi on her back.

Qin Yi hugged Ye Ling’s snake body and turned to look at the vast army of beastkins, feeling very hopeless, “Even Ming He can’t help this situation!”

Liu Su’s voice came, “There is only one way. Lure them back to the beastkin refining array.”

Qin Yi was stunned, “But Ye Ling can’t enter the beastkin refining array.”

Liu Su said coldly, “The peach is gone. At least, it will not harm her mind. As for the beastkin refining effect in the array, she must endure it.”

Qin Yi shook his head and said to Ye Ling, “Go to the beastkin refining array. You don’t go into the array. Find a place to hide. I’ll go in and think of a solution.”

Ye Ling’s body trembled slightly, but she didn’t say anything and flew away silently.

Her speed was extremely fast. After a while, she saw the giant tree with the peach again. At this time, there were no beastkins surrounding it. She could clearly see a stele erected under the tree. Needless to say, there were various beastkin refining techniques.

She gritted her teeth and rushed forward, ignoring the obvious beastkin refining array patterns on the ground.

TL: The master of the beastkin refining array is dead, will it still work?
