Chapter 19 Taking advantage of the situation
When Lin Mu arrived at the Beast Taming Palace, many children from aristocratic families had already gathered here.
Looking around, they were all descendants of major aristocratic families. There were about thirty people, and all of them looked nervous. It was obvious that they also knew that they had been abandoned by their families.
After a while, he saw the area where the Lin family's children were. As Zhao Fang said, there were seven people in total, six collateral children and Lin Zhaojun.
"Look, that trash is here." A sideline disciple said with flashing eyes.
Lin Zhaojun smiled sinisterly, facing Lin Mu from a distance, and made a gesture of slitting his throat with his palm on his neck.
The children of other aristocratic families were also extremely surprised when they saw Lin Mu.
"Why is Lin Mu here? Isn't he a direct descendant of the Lin family?"
"They must have been given up by the Lin family. It's really sad that a direct descendant of the family has been reduced to this."
"You deserve it. If it were me, as a direct descendant, enjoying so many resources, even if I don't become a warrior, I would at least be a peak warrior."
"Hey, it's useless to say so much. When we come here, everyone's fate is the same. Life and death are determined by destiny."
Lin Zhaojun's movements were clearly seen in Lin Mu's eyes. There was no joy or anger on his face, but murderous intent surged in his heart. Although he had expected that the other party had no good intentions in participating in the demon trial experiment, such blatant behavior still aroused his anger.
"A man should act violently. Blindly tolerating is the behavior of a coward. When you should be violent, you should be violent!"
While Lin Mu was thinking, a young disciple wearing the robe of the Beast Taming Palace came out of the palace and looked at the people outside with the indifference of looking at a dead person: "The time is up, all come with me."
No matter how you heard these words, it sounded like someone was going to the execution ground. Some timid children from aristocratic families were so frightened that their legs became weak and they collapsed on the ground, seemingly unconscious.
The disciple of the Beast Taming Palace sneered when he saw this. He had long been accustomed to this kind of thing and waved his hand.
Immediately, other disciples from the Beast Taming Palace walked out quickly. Without saying a word, they picked up the two arms of this young man and dragged him roughly into the Beast Taming Palace.
"My name is Zhou Qingfeng, the top disciple of the Beast Taming Palace. I will be responsible for this demon trial supervision operation."
The young disciple said with a cold voice: "When you get here, don't play any tricks on me, like that person just now. I don't care whether you are really scared or pretending to be faint. As long as you still have breath, you have to test the demon for me."
Lin Mu's eyes were slightly solemn, not because of Zhou Qingfeng's words, but because of the opponent's strength.
Although his cultivation level is not high, his soul perception is very strong, and he can clearly sense that Zhou Qingfeng's aura is strong, and he is probably a ninth-level warrior.
The Beast Taming Palace was built on the mountains and was very large. After walking for more than a quarter of an hour, everyone followed Zhou Qingfeng to the depths of the Beast Taming Palace.
Ahead is a large iron door, and behind the door is the famous Monster Raising Cave of the Beast Taming Palace.
"The demon trial lasts for three days. After three days, whether you are dead or alive, you will receive generous rewards from my Beast Taming Palace." Zhou Qingfeng said lightly: "Of course, if you die, the rewards will be given to the family behind you. As long as you are alive, , you can enjoy your rewards.”
When entering the gate, Lin Zhaojun sneaked up to Zhou Qingfeng and quietly took out a small bag.
Zhou Qingfeng was a little impatient at first, but when Lin Zhaojun opened the kit and let him see what was inside, his expression immediately softened.
Then, Lin Zhaojun said something in Zhou Qingfeng's ear. During this period, Zhou Qingfeng looked at Lin Mu from a distance and nodded.
After making a secret deal with Zhou Qingfeng, Lin Zhaojun did not hide his intentions. In order to vent his inner joy, when he passed by Lin Mu, he paused and said with a sinister smile: "Lin Mu, I have got through Zhou Qingfeng. No matter what I do next in the Demon Raising Cave, he will turn a blind eye and you just wait to die!"
"Based on you? I'm afraid you can't come up with anything that can impress Zhou Qingfeng," Lin Mu said coldly.
"That's right." Lin Zhaojun was unscrupulous. In his eyes, Lin Mu was already a dead man. "That piece of spiritual stone was given to me by the second master personally. It is equivalent to the money to buy your life."
Spiritual stone!
Lin Mu was shocked. This was an extremely precious cultivation treasure. It was rumored that practicing with spiritual stones would be a hundred times more effective than inhaling it yourself.
The effect is astonishing and the value is also high. A spiritual stone costs ten thousand gold coins to buy, and one gold coin is equivalent to one hundred copper coins.
This piece of spiritual stone is equivalent to a million copper coins. No wonder Zhou Qingfeng, a ninth-level warrior, would be moved to buy it.
Lin Zheng, you are really willing to spend a lot of money to kill me!
In the past, he was just disgusted with Lin Zheng, but now he had overwhelming hatred.
"Then we'll see."
At this point, Lin Mu knew that nothing he said would help. From now on, it was destined that only one of him and Lin Zhaojun would be able to walk out of the Demon Raising Hall.
"I'm not suitable to fight with them now. I should leave as soon as possible while there are many people around and they don't dare to take action yet."
Lin Zhaojun and six of his disciples were all in the third or fourth level of cultivation. He was not afraid of them individually, but together they were no match for him.
Therefore, the top priority is to hunt monsters and improve their cultivation.
There are many passages in the Demon Raising Cave.
The light here is dark and there are many plants, which is very suitable for monsters to survive.
Half an hour later.
In a three-meter-wide passage, an injured mouse lay quietly on the ground, with blood flowing out and the smell spreading everywhere.
Not long after, a huge figure appeared silently.
This was a giant gray-furred wolf, nearly two meters long and as high as an adult's waist. It had a faint green light in its eyes and kept approaching the mouse.
Just when the giant wolf opened its ferocious mouth and was about to bite off the hare's neck, a black shadow rushed out with lightning speed and hit the giant wolf's head hard with its fist.
"boom!"
The body of the giant wolf flew backwards, and the black shadow landed on the ground. It was a fourteen-year-old boy, Lin Mu.
"Using rats as bait really works."
Lin Mu grinned, but when his eyes fell on the giant wolf, his heart palpitated again, "Is this a monster? It's a little monster with such a huge body. When it reaches adulthood, it will be nothing."
In addition, in the depths of his pupils, there was a cold light with a deeper meaning flashing across his eyes.
In a corner, two figures lurked. Seeing Lin Mu approaching the wild wolf, a cruel smile appeared on his face: "The opportunity has come."
Little did they know that their whereabouts had already been exposed.
Lin Mu has fused the remnant soul of Wu Qingyun, and his perception is far beyond that of ordinary people. Now he pretends not to know, but he is just following the plan.
Sure enough, when Lin Mu crouched down and prepared to deliver a fatal blow to the giant wolf, a violent fist attack struck him.
Boom! When the fist came, Lin Mu was well prepared and used his back shoulder to block it. At the same time, he used the force to retreat and fell several meters away. He seemed to be seriously injured and unconscious.
"It hurts me so much." While pretending to be unconscious, Lin Mu was screaming in pain inside. Although he had dissipated most of the force of the punch, he didn't dare to completely dodge it in order to look good. His shoulders were probably swollen.
"But it's worth it to trap these two thieves to death." Lin Mu hated this kind of person who wanted to secretly attack and kill him.
