Dragon Monarch
Chapter 187 - Escape
Lin Yan instantly grabbed the Fairy Grass along with its roots. He understood that if he plucked herbs and left the roots, the efficacy of these herbs would definitely drop dramatically. But for Lin Yan who had learned about herbs in depth from his grandmother although perhaps his knowledge was not very deep in knowing all the functions and properties of herbs, he was, still, he must have understood how to remove herbs that he clearly knew the type.
Zhep!
After forcibly plucking the Fairy Grass, the building lost its light a little because all the buildings were indeed made to accelerate the growth of herbs.
The Ancient Golden Tiger that felt another sensation behind it when fighting the cultivators immediately turned its head towards the back.
“It's time! Attack together!”
Shouted a cultivator and swung his sword towards the Ancient Golden Tiger. The other cultivators did the same.
The sraing! The sraing! The sraing!
Srak! Srak!
Slash after slash hit the Ancient Golden Tiger's body which made it spray a lot of blood.
The Ancient Golden Tiger immediately went berserk and shook its claws here and there.
On the other hand, Lin Yan who turned his head slightly back was smiling widely as those cultivators helped him to keep the Ancient Golden Tiger from chasing after him.
Without wasting any time, Lin Yan instantly moved straight ahead to move away, while Gu Yin was right before him also moved at his full speed.
Jrezh!
From Lin Yan's back, growing six wings, it seemed to pierce through his clothes as it could already use a special trick of making his body's tissues grow cells then pass through his clothes, after which, after that, the body tissue that had pierced through his clothes immediately formed wings.
Zhep!
Lin Yan flapped his wings and grabbed Gu Yin who was right in front of him.
“Does it work?” Gu Yin asked as she hugged Lin Yan who caught her earlier.
“Yes, let's go as soon as possible. For a Heaven Realm level spirit beast to definitely be able to use the qi emanating from its spirit beast core to make it fly. We should get away as fast as possible!” Reply Lin Yan while enveloping his wings with qi then flapping them, he immediately shot into the air so as not to be seen by the Ancient Golden Tiger.
The Ancient Golden Tiger on the other hand was constantly raging. He had naturally noticed Lin Yan who was moving at an extremely high speed in the air. To a spirit beast like him, he had developed intelligence even though it was not at the level of a human. Even so, he had memorized Lin Yan who had wings. And it was a fortune to Lin Yan and Gu Yin as well.
Lin Yan who continued to fly had certainly predicted the properties of spirit beasts, so he would take the anticipation of not being recognized by those spirit beasts. He went to a quiet place, then told Gu Yin to change clothes as well as himself.
“Do you need to do this?” Gu Yin asked in astonishment.
“Yes. The spirit beasts were very easy to memorize someone whom he hated so much. Of course he has noticed us before, let's wear this robe as well, and no longer wear a bamboo hat.” said Lin Yan.
After finishing changing clothes, the two wore black robes that had veils to cover a little of their faces.
“Let's go, we have to rotate a little. Surely that spirit beast will also continue to search for us. The previous group of cultivators would definitely not be able to fight against the Ancient Golden Tiger.” Lin Yan immediately pulled Gu Yin and activated the King's Eye to avoid the other Trap Formations.
“Why is that Ancient Golden Tiger going after us? Is the herb you took before worth it?” Gu Yin asked for not paying attention to what herbs Lin Yan took.
“This is another Fairy Grass with an age of over 5,000 years. I did not expect that herbs like this would be hidden in the Sapphire Mountain Site.” Reply Lin Yan while taking out the Fairy Grass.
Gu Yin understood instantly, nor did he hesitate for Lin Yan to say that it was over 5,000 years old, as Lin Yan was a Herbalist expert. Also, he understood why the Ancient Golden Tiger was guarding him, it was to start a new evolution or increase his strength because Lin Yan also needed such herbs to increase his cultivation as well as body strength.
And all according to Lin Yan's prediction, the Ancient Golden Tiger had killed all the cultivators that confronted him in less than five minutes, after which, after that, The Ancient Golden Tiger chased towards the peak to find Lin Yan's whereabouts.
And this was the beginning for cultivators to work together against a single powerful spirit beast at the peak of Sapphire Mountain.
**
Time continued to pass, without feeling, already more than half a day the Sapphire Mountain Site was opened.
“If we move at this speed, it will take almost three hours to reach the top,” said Lin Yan.
“I heard the roar of spirit beasts before from time to time. It turns out that it is true that the spirit beast does not want to release the herbs you took before,” said Gu Yin.
“Of course it will be like that, no spirit beast is capable of resisting high-level herbs that can increase body strength to a new level,” replied Lin Yan.
“If we don't rotate a little, it is certain that we are chased by the Ancient Golden Tiger because the speed is very high. And he must also be heading to the top of Mount Sapphire. I am sure that this Sapphire Mountain also has very many such powerful spirit beasts, but being inside a Formation, I saw some extremely hidden Formations before, he said, and it cannot be opened if the Formation is not loosened. Which means, there is someone who manages this Sapphire Mountain,” said Lin Yan.
“Who has managed this place for a very long time? From what I know, the Mount Sapphire Site has been around for thousands of years from the information that has been circulating,” Gu Yin said.
“I also don't know, for sure, we better ignore it because it must be something very troublesome,” replied Lin Yan.
“Let's hurry to the top, I also heard that the Site is only open within three days. Which means, the ride up and down takes a maximum of two days and one day is the time to scramble for something in Safir Lake.” Continue Lin Yan while increasing his speed.
Gu Yin nodded slightly and did the same.
At that time, the Ancient Golden Tiger that Lin Yan had released from the Formation that locked him away was constantly tearing apart the cultivators he saw. No one could stop the spirit beast unless hundreds of cultivators cooperated to take it down.
Every time the Ancient Golden Tiger saw a cultivator, desperate cries rang out in less than a minute then vanished completely.
Lin Yan had already predicted this and did not care at all, the reason he rushed towards the peak was also to lend the hands of the other cultivators to take down the Ancient Golden Tiger.
