Chapter 924: Chapter 924: The Movements of the Demon Horde Chapter 924: Chapter 924: The Movements of the Demon Horde Fang Lin frowned. This tall man was a martial artist at the Spirit Bone Realm, and even if this wasn't his often-used Nine Palace Bag, he shouldn't be this poor.
Immediately, Fang Lin took a good look at everything within the Nine Palace Bag, not overlooking any of the pills.
“Hmm? The message in this Jade Slip!” While inspecting a piece of Jade Slip, Fang Lin was instantly captivated by the message within.
This Jade Slip contained information about another Inheritor of the Supreme Shrine, not the youth in white but someone Fang Lin had never seen before.
This person was nameless and had made an appearance over a hundred years ago, exceptionally impressive, yet disappeared as suddenly as a ephemeral flower, never to be seen again by anyone.
Moreover, this person was above the fifth layer of the Spirit Bone Realm a hundred years ago, so if he hadn't fallen, it's very likely that by now, he could have stepped into an even higher level.
Though the information was scarce, it was immensely valuable; at least, aside from the youth in white and the tall man, Fang Lin now knew of the existence of a fourth Inheritor of the Supreme Shrine.
And the tall man had probably long viewed the person in this Jade Slip as a target, wishing to find them.
Of the twelve inheritors of the Supreme Shrine, aside from Fang Lin, only the youth in white and the tall man were known so far, and the person in this Jade Slip, though the fourth one, was still uncertain to be alive.
As for other inheritors of the Supreme Shrine, perhaps some had not yet emerged, and some may have already fallen, it's hard to say.
Being the owner of the Supreme Shrine, Fang Lin's entanglements with other inheritors of the Supreme Shrine would probably take a long time to unravel.
After going through everything in the Nine Palace Bag, Fang Lin sorted everything out, putting the Thousand-Year Corpse Ginseng back into the Nine Palace Bag, and then left the Supreme Shrine.
No sooner had he appeared than Fang Lin was startled to find himself surrounded by a large group of Demon Beasts.
The sudden appearance of a person completely baffled the Demon Beasts, who were all astounded and turned their shocked gazes towards Fang Lin.
“Uh, my apologies.” Fang Lin said awkwardly, but then the Demon Beasts became enraged.
Roar!!!
Continuous roars sounded as the Demon Beasts launched an attack on Fang Lin.
“I said I was sorry, and you still want to eat me, that's really unreasonable,” Fang Lin muttered. The Mysterious Sea Dragon Spear appeared in his hands, and he certainly didn't hold back, engaging in fierce combat amongst the group of beasts.
Fortunately, although there were many Demon Beasts, most were at the Second or Third Transformation Realm. Having stepped into the Spirit Vein, Fang Lin saw these levels of Demon Beasts as no threat at all.
As the Mysterious Sea Dragon Spear swung through the air, its breath swept across, and even without being struck by the spear, they would be slain by its fierce aura.
This was a massacre. The Demon Beasts suffered heavy casualties and quickly realized Fang Lin's formidable power, turning to flee in panic.
Fang Lin did not chase after them. After repelling the group of beasts, he was ready to leave the area.
Roar!
But immediately afterward, an extremely dense Demon Qi hit him head-on. Fang Lin's gaze sharpened as he saw a hideous Ape Monkey appear a hundred paces ahead, staring intently at Fang Lin with a pair of blood-red eyes.
Without a doubt, this was a Demon King!
Behind the Ape Monkey were four other Ape Monkeys in their Four Transformations Realm, equivalent to Spirit Vein warriors of the Human Clan.
Upon seeing the Demon King, Fang Lin did not hesitate to use the Nine Heavens Step Skill and immediately fled, without any intention of entanglement.
What a joke, a Demon King was equivalent to a powerhouse at the Spirit Bone level–Fang Lin's current strength was no match for a Demon King, and his only option was to run.
Boom!!!
Out of nowhere, a silver claw fell from the sky, heading straight for Fang Lin, accompanied by an overwhelming surge of Demon Qi that seemed poised to crush him into dust.
Fang Lin's expression changed dramatically as he pushed his speed to the limit, flying forward with extreme velocity.
Even so, Fang Lin only just managed to dodge the colossal silver claw descending from the heavens, but was still struck by the Demon Qi. A tightness gripped his chest, and blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.
Without looking back, Fang Lin's face was a mask of solemnity; he knew who was making the move.
Above in the sky, a Silver Fox watched Fang Lin with a mocking gaze.
This Silver Fox was the same one that had appeared in Hundred Beast Mountain. Although its form was different, its aura and appearance were exactly the same.
However, it was clear that the Silver Fox present here was merely an avatar, with an aura corresponding to that of a top-tier Demon King.
Of course, to Fang Lin, it made no difference whether it was a Demon King or a top-tier Demon King; either way, they were beyond his ability to contend with.
The Silver Fox had obviously recognized Fang Lin and thus attacked him. Moreover, it seemed to have no intention of letting Fang Lin escape easily.
A long howl came from the Silver Fox, eerie and somewhat intimidating, prompting various sounds from Demon Beasts from all directions, seemingly in response to the Silver Fox's howl.
Soon after, a scene of thousands of beasts stampeding unfolded.
It appeared that the Demon Beasts were subdued by the Silver Fox; at its call, they gathered, all converging on this location.
This threw the entire mountainous region into disarray.
The Martial Artists in the area seeking the Phoenix Spirit Jade Branch were caught off guard, many of them not reacting in time and being swept into the fray with the hoard of beasts, forced into fierce combat.
Fang Lin faced the most tragic fate, with a large number of Demon Beasts targeting him specifically, forcing him into battle with various beasts as he tried to flee.
“Damn it! Has the Silver Fox gone mad? Or does it really intend to annihilate all the Martial Artists gathered here?” Fang Lin gripped the Mysterious Sea Dragon Spear, his face grim as he fought incessantly, his footsteps never ceasing.
The Silver Fox struck again, still aiming for Fang Lin.
Seeing this, Fang Lin knew that if he held anything back now, he might very well lose his life right there.
He immediately slapped his Nine Palace Bag; the Ancient Lamp of Flame God was taken out and his blood dripped into it, transforming into lamp oil.
Instantly, fierce flames rose up to the sky, enveloping a vast number of pursuing Demon Beasts in a sea of fire.
The Silver Fox also seemed wary of the flames from the Ancient Lamp of Flame God and immediately halted, no longer pursuing Fang Lin.
Fang Lin let out a breath of relief and quickly shook off the pursuit of the horde of beasts.
Meanwhile, across the land, the slaughter raged on. Although the Demon Beasts were numerous, the Martial Artists who came here were all from the Upper Three Countries; there were no weaklings among them. They were strong and initially might have been at a disadvantage due to the overwhelming numbers of beasts, but soon they routed the attacking beasts.
The sudden assault from the Demon Beasts left many puzzled, with some sensing an anomaly, believing the Demon Beasts were attempting to drive the Martial Artists away because the Phoenix Spirit Jade Branch was about to appear.
Yet others suspected that someone was behind this, with great schemes at play.
Atop a certain peak, stood a figure, gaunt and shrouded in a black robe, with a wide-brimmed hat on his head, revealing only a pair of eyes that exuded a chilling and serene air.
