198 The Support Team
Zhou Yun was holding the hilt of the Fire Dragon Sword in his hand. The Fire Dragon Sword was vibrating slightly in its scabbard.
Zhou Yun looked at the Yueshan rhinoceros in front of him, which looked like a real mountain. He didn’t dare to relax for even a moment!
“Roar!” The Yueshan rhinoceros raised its huge hoof, and its heavenly pillar-like hoof slammed down from the sky!
The huge hoof covered Zhou Yun and even the entire mountaintop. Zhou Yun had no way to avoid it!
“You want to stomp me to death? Aren’t you afraid of running into a nail?” Zhou Yun heaved a sigh of relief. If the Yueshan rhinoceros were to use its fearsome horn in this state, he might only be able to escape.
But he didn’t think that the Yueshan rhinoceros would underestimate its enemy and look down on a mere foundation establishment stage cultivator like him!
“In that case, I’ll shine again. The last sword of the 13 swords of the Divine Gate. Dao Questioning Sword!” Zhou Yun raised his head and looked at the huge attack that seemed as if the sky was falling and the world was collapsing!
He held the Fire Dragon Sword tightly. In the next moment, a gust of wind appeared beside Zhou Yun.
“Whoosh!” The breeze blew away countless fallen leaves, which met the huge hoof that was bigger than the top of a mountain!
“Roar!” The Yueshan rhinoceros let out a deafening cry. Immediately after, its body seemed to have lost all its strength. After being blown by a gust of wind that swept up the fallen leaves, it fell heavily to the other side.
Zhou Yun slowly sheathed his Fire Dragon Sword.
“Swish!” Just as the sound of the sword sheath closing rang out, the Yueshan rhinoceros, which was larger than a mountain, was instantly turned into countless pieces of meat.
“Splash!” Blood gushed out from the body of the Yueshan rhinoceros like a waterfall.
Zhou Yun was shocked and quickly jumped to the other side. He stepped on the Fire Dragon Sword and barely avoided being drenched in the Yueshan rhinoceros’ blood.
“Divine Gate token!” Zhou Yun took out his Divine Gate token and golden light burst out from it.
He seemed to see a child dragging an adult’s shoulder and trying to walk with difficulty.
With great difficulty, the golden light slowly enveloped and devoured the body of the Yueshan rhinoceros. It was different from the previous time when he could absorb it casually and recover the corpse in a breath. This time, the golden light from the Divine Gate token had used up a full 15 minutes before it managed to retrieve the carcass of the gigantic Yueshan rhinoceros!
“Buzz!” The Divine Gate token collected the entire corpse of the Yueshan rhinoceros, and not even a drop of blood was wasted. Only then did it let out a tired sound.
Zhou Yun received the Divine Gate token that fell from the sky.
“This time, I’ve actually gained a whole 300 points. As expected, late-stage golden core demonic beasts have more points than early-stage golden core demonic beasts.” Zhou Yun nodded his head. The demonic beasts at the early-stage golden core stage were worth 50 points. The mid-stage golden core was 100 points. As for the late-stage golden core, it was a total of 300 points!
“However, this is only a small part. The real majority of the points are still here!” Zhou Yun climbed over the mountain and finally saw what he wanted to see on a plain.
A large herd of Yueshan rhinoceros cubs!
“Just now, I killed nearly a hundred Yueshan rhinoceros. I didn’t expect them to be protecting as many as 500 cubs!” Zhou Yun looked over and saw that there were at least 500 of these Yueshan rhinoceroses!
“If a baby rhinoceros is twice the points of an adult, then one would be 100 points. 500 of them… 50,000 points!” After Zhou Yun finished his calculations, his breathing became unstable!
“In the last few days, I killed a total of three groups of the golden core stage with their young. Including the number of cubs hunted and captured, my points have actually reached 200,000!” Zhou Yun’s mouth was about to split open from his smile.
Now, it seemed that a mere 10,000 points were nothing. Now, he was someone with 200,000 points!
“However, it seems that the time is almost up. I’ve been in the mountains for seven days. It is time to return to the Zhen Xin Sect. I wonder how the other disciples of the Divine Gate are doing.” Zhou Yun shook his head and casually took out the Divine Gate token.
Very quickly, the Divine Gate’s token once again shot out a golden light, absorbing the Yueshan rhinoceros cubs into it. It was only when all the Yueshan rhinoceros cubs had been absorbed that the Divine Gate’s token returned to Zhou Yun’s hand.
“I’ve almost killed all the demonic beasts around the Zhen Xin Sect. The disciples of the Divine Gate should be doing nothing in the Zhen Xin Sect. ” Zhou Yun thought that his actions might have reduced the chances of the disciples of the Divine Gate killing demonic beasts to earn points.
He thought for a while, should he drive a group of foundation establishment demonic beasts to the Zhen Xin Sect on his way back?
After all, renting a demonic beast mount wasn’t cheap. Not everyone could jump levels and kill demonic beasts as he did.
“Forget it. I still don’t really understand the Divine Gate yet, so it’s better if I don’t do anything that’s too out of line or will easily attract attention.” Zhou Yun shook his head. He decided to go back to the Zhen Xin Sect.
“Little Qing, help me hide my information and take me back to the Zhen Xin Sect.” Zhou Yun said to the green ribbon on his wrist.
However, Little Qing did not respond to him.
“Little Qing?” Zhou Yun was puzzled. He stretched out his other hand and touched the green ribbon. After some time, the ribbon slowly shook.
“Wuu?” Little Qing made a sound that was filled with sleepiness. It seemed to have fallen asleep just now.
“I can’t believe you can fall asleep in such a battle. I can only say that it’s fitting for a demonic beast of the incarnation stage.” Zhou Yun did not know whether to laugh or cry.
Then, Little Qing turned into a whirlwind and flew toward the Zhen Xin Sect with Zhou Yun.
With Little Qing’s incarnation stage cultivation base, it would only take a few breaths for Zhou Yun to cover the distance he had traveled. Soon, Zhou Yun’s eyes lit up. He appeared in the Zhen Xin Sect.
Furthermore, none of the disciples of the Divine Gate had noticed him!
“Wuu.” Little Qing seemed to be very tired and sleepy. After a slight stutter, it continued to sleep.
“Little Qing is indeed growing. It really loves sleeping.” Zhou Yun could not help but shake his head at the thought of the terrifying realm that Little Qing would reach when it reached maturity. This was the power of bloodline demonic beasts. As long as they grew, they could reach a realm that ordinary cultivators could not reach in their entire lives.
“However, this is good too. Let me see what the disciples of the Divine Gate are like when they’re on a mission.” Zhou Yun slowly walked out from a remote corner. Not long after, he bumped into a smiling Divine Gate disciple who was on patrol.
“You are the missing disciple? You’re finally not lost.” The disciple of the Divine Gate laughed. He started a conversation with Zhou Yun affectionately. He was the kind disciple who had avoided Zhou Yun when he had accepted the mission!
Zhou Yun suddenly felt a very strong sense of separation.
The disciples of the Divine Gate were so different when they were outside the Holy Land!
“Right, you should quickly follow me. Today should be the day that the support team of the Divine Gate will arrive.” The friendly disciple seemed to be in a good mood. He called Zhou Yun and walked towards the empty land of the Zhen Xin Sect.
“The support team?” Zhou Yun asked, puzzled.
