Chapter 216: Chapter 13: Curse-Killing Skill, 100% Compatibility (Seeking Subscriptions)_2
 

This matter on Chikun Main Star is no secret. In the end, the fate of the last three Peak Masters, determined to come from the Different Species’ Curse-Killing Skill, slowly subsided.

“Curse-Killing Skill?”

A flicker stirred in Lin Yuan’s heart.

As the thirteenth Peak Master, he naturally knew of this bizarre and unpredictable method.

The Curse-Killing Skill is a special application of the law of cause and effect, more arcane than attacks on the soul.

Of course, the cost of using the Curse-Killing Skill is also enormous, and it only works if it spans at least two Great Realms.

And each deployment drains a hundred years of life span.

“The Different Species use the Curse-Killing Skill, for what purpose?”

Lin Yuan had a guess in his heart, but still asked.

“Others say, the Different Species saw the thirteenth Peak Master’s performance in the arena area, and this time the Curse-Killed ten Evolvers… they were looking for the thirteenth Peak Master…”

Fang Qing said in a hushed voice.

“That makes sense.”

Lin Yuan nodded.

At this moment, he was somewhat relieved that he had not exposed his identity.

If previously, due to the suppression by Heiyu Ao, Lin Yuan had revealed his identity in a moment of impatience,

even if he safely hid back on the Chikun Main Star, as long as the identity of “Lin Yuan” was exposed, it could allow the Different Species to track him down.

Having lived on Canglan Star for so many years, Lin Yuan could not guarantee he hadn’t left behind any “medium.”

If the Different Species found this “medium” and then employed the Curse-Killing Skill… Lin Yuan was not sure if he could survive.

Although as a junior disciple of the Chikun Star Lord, he might have means to block causality-killing techniques, but in case it didn’t work—

“Low profile.”

“Must keep a low profile…”

Lin Yuan thought to himself.

Luckily, he endured under the pressure from Heiyu Ao.

“That Tri-Eye Clan man…”

Lin Yuan felt that this Tri-Eye Clan man must have taken the disaster on himself instead.

Within the Seven Star Cave World, three red-embossed, over a hundred gold-banded, and over a million silver-banded.

The one who most resembled the thirteenth Peak Master, known for his rampage in the arena area, likely was this Tri-Eye Clan man.

After all, the other two red-embossed had too distinctive personal features. Yin Ling, the silver-haired woman, excels in spatial attacks, and the nearly three meters tall brute strength, excels in physical attacks.

They didn’t quite resemble the thirteenth Peak Master.

As for the below gold and silver-banded… the numbers were too vast, really hard to pinpoint.

Only this Tri-Eye Clan man who was red-embossed…

“Still don’t know if the thirteenth Peak Master has encountered a mishap or not…”

Fang Qing’s tone suddenly grew somber. The Different Species daring to employ a curse assassination surely was confident, a curse assassination spanning boundless distances required a huge sacrifice.

“Won’t we know by tomorrow?”

Lin Yuan offered comfort.

“That’s true.”

Fang Qing was momentarily stunned.

The thirteenth Peak Master challenges fellow Evolvers every morning and afternoon in the arena area.

If the thirteenth Peak Master is unharmed, he will definitely appear tomorrow.

“Hope nothing’s wrong.”

Fang Qing muttered quietly.

If the thirteenth Peak Master were to die at the hands of the Different Species like ten thousand years ago, who knows what kind of drastic actions the Chikun Star Lord would take.

…..

The next day.

Virtual World.

Arena area.

Inside a private box.

Several figures gathered here.

“Whether the Curse-Killing reached the thirteenth Peak Master or not, we will see now.”

These several figures were naturally disguised as the Different Species. The Virtual World’s network could not completely block the Different Species from entering.

Some adept at disguising could perfectly mimic the aura of the Human Race, and as long as the identity was correct, they could smoothly enter the Virtual World.

“If today, the thirteenth Peak Master does not show up, then it is highly probable he was cursed to death.”

The several figures exchanged glances, eagerly watching the arena below.

This time, to curse assassinate the thirteenth Peak Master, they had paid a much greater price than when they had assassinated that junior disciple of the Chikun Star Lord ten thousand years ago.

To assassinate that junior disciple, they had merely sacrificed some Sixth Rank powerhouses.

But this time, directly a Seventh Rank Peak Expert skilled in cursed methods had given up a millennium of life span.

One must know, a Seventh Rank Peak Expert skilled in cursed methods is even rarer than an Eighth Layer powerhouse.

If this expert hadn’t volunteered, they couldn’t have ordered such a sacrifice.

“Thirteenth Peak Master.”

“You must die.”

“If you don’t die, wouldn’t our sacrifice be in vain?”

The several Different Species thought rapidly, keeping their gazes fixed on the arena below.

Soon.

A figure appeared on the arena.

That was the thirteenth Peak Master’s opponent.

“By now, he should have not come, should have….”

Joy surged in the hearts of the several Different Species.

However, the next moment.

The figure of the thirteenth Peak Master appeared on the other side of the arena.

…..

Dead silence.

The box fell into dead silence.

Several Different Species looked grim, staring intently at the figure of the thirteenth Peak Master below.

“Was the curse wrong?”

“The thirteenth Peak Master is still alive?”

“It’s over…”

The several Different Species took a deep breath, their faces bitter.

“Let’s go.”

“There’s no need to look anymore.”

“Let’s go back and report.”

Several beings from different species disconnected from the Virtual World.

The moment they saw the silhouette of Shisan at the Peak Master, they realized that they could no longer stop the rise of Shisan at the Peak Master.

What could they use to stop him?

Attempt another cursed killing?

First off, whether they could find another Seventh Rank Peak expert willing to cooperate with them for another cursed killing is questionable.

Even if they could find one, what then?

How would they choose the target?

Their previously chosen ten evolvers

were most likely to be the targets of Shisan at the Peak Master.

Now that they had failed, they needed to select from an even larger base of evolvers.

The possibility of failing again in cursed killing was significantly higher than the first time.

….

Virtual World.

Personal space.

Lin Yuan’s eyes were slightly closed.

By challenging evolvers of various evolutionary paths repeatedly,

the perfection level of Lin Yuan’s Martial Path evolutionary path steadily improved.

“Is someone seeking to visit me?”

Lin Yuan glanced through the visitor list.

Ever since he was suppressed by Heiyu Ao,

very few had made special visits to him.

Even though Fang Qing appeared and resolved the trade cutoff situation of Canglan Star,

Lin Yuan, as a person, was still blacklisted by many forces.

Too arrogant, too controversial.

Offend Heiyu Ao today, who knows who he would offend tomorrow.

“Mr. Lin, I am Shi Cai, a director from Huiyin Group.”

A man with a hook-nosed face said with a smile.

“Hello.”

Lin Yuan nodded.

“We hope, Mr. Lin, that you could lead the way and help us contact Lord Fang Qing.”

The hook-nosed man stated his purpose.

“Rest assured, Mr. Lin, our Huiyin Group will certainly show our gratitude afterward.”

the hook-nosed man promised.

“No need.”

“I can’t agree to this.”

Lin Yuan shook his head in refusal.

So these people wanted to get to know Fang Qing through him?

“In that case,”

“I apologize for the disturbance.”

The hook-nosed man maintained his smile.

and immediately exited Lin Yuan’s personal space.

It was not until he returned to reality that a dark expression surfaced on the hook-nosed man’s face.

“Doesn’t he realize his current situation?”

“Still so arrogant.”

The hook-nosed man snorted coldly.

From his perspective, Lin Yuan was entirely relying on Lord Fang Qing to live comfortably.

Not taking advantage of the situation now, when Lord Fang Qing values personal connections, to network with other forces is a complete waste of resources.

“Just wait.”

“I’ll see what kind of fate you’ll face in the future.”

The hook-nosed man sat in his seat. Lord Fang Qing can protect you temporarily, but could he do so for a lifetime?

What will you use to face the Heiyu Family once you lose Lord Fang Qing’s protection in the future?

…

Central Continent Manor.

Underground training ground in the main building.

Lin Yuan was seated cross-legged.

In front of him, a crimson ‘stone’ was placed.

Under the Against-Heaven’s Understanding, he observed the inspiration emanating from the crimson ‘stone,’ combined with the gains from sparring with numerous evolvers,

quickly perfecting his Martial Path evolutionary path and enhancing the soul compatibility conversion efficiency.

Until he reached a certain threshold.

Time passed unknowingly.

An hour.

Ten hours.

Or maybe a day.

Lin Yuan quietly opened his eyes.

“I…”

Lin Yuan only felt, from his entire being, to be precise, from the depths of his soul, a sense of ‘perfection’ emerging.

“Soul compatibility…”

Lin Yuan immediately began to sense the level of his soul compatibility conversion.

A moment later.

A smile appeared on Lin Yuan’s face.

Because in this world, his soul compatibility conversion level,

had already reached—

One hundred percent.
