Chapter 137: Onto the Path (1)

When he got home, Lin Shen was surprised to find that Ai wasn’t there.

“Where did the little guy go?”

Lin Shen glanced at the empty cans on the coffee table in the living room.

Now that he didn’t have to worry about money, Ai’s food had also become much better.

The canned cat food that she was eating had been changed to an even more expensive brand, “Wu Yuan ”. The market price was 5,000 spirit coins per can, which far exceeded the price of spirit beast meat.

However, correspondingly, even for Ascension Stage spiritual beasts, this kind of canned cat food had a certain effect on increasing their cultivation efficiency.

After sitting in the living room for a while, Lin Shen heard a slight movement on the balcony. He turned around and saw Ai jumping onto the balcony.

…..

The little guy quickly realized that there was someone in the living room. When she looked up and saw that it was Lin Shen, she immediately shouted in surprise,

“Lin Shen, you’re back!”

Lin Shen smiled and rubbed Ai’s head.

“Where have you been?”

“I went to see General.” Ai raised her head and said, “But he seemed to be busy with something. He didn’t have time to play with me, so 1 came back.”

After a pause, Ai said excitedly,

“Lin Shen, are you bringing me out of the city again this time?”

The last time they came back from outside the city, Lin Shen had changed the brand of canned cat food for her. He had even bought a lot of cans in one go, allowing her to live a blissful life of eating canned cat food whenever she wanted.

Ai felt like she was in paradise. She was simply too happy.

Therefore, when it came to going out to train, she was even more enthusiastic than Lin Shen.

“That’s right. Get ready. We’ll leave in a moment.”

“Really? That’s great!”

Ai was overjoyed.

“There’s no need to prepare. Let’s set off now!”

Looking at Ai’s eager expression, Lin Shen couldn’t help but laugh.

This little guy was really easy to understand.

Hence, the man and cat left the house and rushed out of the city.

Compared to the first time he came to the Dragon Abyss Mountain Range, Lin Shen had improved significantly.

Not only did his cultivation increase, but he also had two powerful martial techniques that surpassed Perfection.

Therefore, he was no longer satisfied with the outermost area of the Dragon Abyss Mountain Range. Instead, he tried to explore deeper.

Naturally, the spiritual beasts they encountered along the way were even more ferocious and fierce. There were almost no spiritual beasts below the Ascension Stage, and there were even late-stage Ascension Stage ones.

However, Lin Shen wasn’t afraid at all.

With his current strength, as long as he didn’t encounter an Enlightening Stage spiritual beast, his life wouldn’t be in danger.

There was no need to worry too much about this.

Enlightening Stage spiritual beasts were only one step away from manifestation and were very powerful. Most of them were the backbone of a certain demon tribe and wouldn’t wander outside.

Ordinary cultivators might not be able to find it even if they deliberately searched, let alone encounter them by chance.

If someone really ran into such a beast, he had to be really unlucky.

After Lin Shen broke through to Level 6 of the Long Breath Stage, his clones’ zero consumption distance had increased to about 400 meters.

A single clone could maintain a distance of about 2,000 meters from Lin Shen for about five minutes.

However, after the distance was extended to 3,000 meters, the duration of its existence would drop sharply to about a minute.

This was also why Lin Shen didn’t summon his Testify by Killing clones to hunt spiritual beasts together.

There was no need for his main body and clone to search for spiritual beasts at the same time when they were only 400 meters apart. This would instead expose the secret of his clone.

He might have been accidentally discovered by some cultivator who happened to pass by.

As for sending the clone to a further distance, Lin Shen decisively gave up on this idea, considering that he had to continuously consume his stamina and that the duration was very short.

At the end of the day, although the consumption of the clones was much lower than before, it was still far from being able to move around at ease.

Lin Shen estimated that he would only be able to do that when he became a true cultivator master.

Thump!

The spiritual beast’s huge body fell far away and hit a tree trunk more than 20 meters away.

The force directly broke the thick tree trunk at the waist, and the spiritual beast let out a miserable cry and fell heavily to the ground.

Before it could get up, several sharp sword lights tore through the air and attacked. They hit the spiritual beast’s forehead, neck, and back almost at the same time!

The miserable howls stopped abruptly.

The spiritual beast died in the blink of an eye!

After confirming that the spiritual beast had indeed lost its vitality, the three people who surrounded it heaved a sigh of relief.

“Damn it, this late-phase Ascension Stage spiritual beast is really difficult to deal with. The three of us are at the fifth or sixth level of the Long Breath Stage, and we almost couldn’t kill this beast!”

“Be content. The white-eyed spirit tiger isn’t an ordinary spiritual beast. This kind of spiritual beast has a strange bloodline and is generally stronger than spiritual beasts of the same level. It’s already a big deal that we can kill it.”

“Let’s not talk about this anymore. Skin it and extract the bones. A late-stage Ascension Stage white-eyed spirit tiger has many good treasures on it!”

At the mention of this, the three of them immediately perked up.

Killing a white-eyed spirit tiger would give one a minor merit reward.

As for this tiger, it win at the late phase of the Ascension Stage. The reward was even higher, and it had three minor merits.

Excluding the tiger spine that needed to be submitted as proof of the mission, the remaining flesh, bones, and blood would also give them dozens of merit points.

Even if the three of them split it equally, it was still a considerable amount.

The three of them began to dissect the tiger’s corpse.

“I have to exchange for a storage bag when I go back this time. Otherwise, I’ll have to dissect the corpse on the spot every time. It’s a waste of time!”

“A storage bag costs three minor merits. I can’t bear to spend that much money. With these merits, I’d rather exchange for a few Prime Pills to increase my cultivation.”

The three of them made small talk as they busied themselves..
