Chapter 353: [274] Provoking Transcendent Beasts! But… Where’s My Cannon! (Asking for monthly tickets and recommendations)_1
 

Before Pei Jinye left the mountain range, he seemed to sense something and looked back.

All he saw within the eerie forest was an enormous creature, as tall as a giant mountain, with arcs of lightning similar to thunderbolts flickering all over its body.

“What kind of creature is this?”

As the nameless monster emerged, the fierce beasts around the deep pit were scared away, scattering in all directions.

Pei Jinye did not stop.

Dealing with such beings was difficult and thankless.

They could neither be devoured nor transformed into a Variant Blood Individual.

Fortunately, without turning his head, his figure flashed away, rocketing off into the distance.

A thunderous roar came from behind.

Pei Jinye heard it clearly, the beast’s language obviously saying—

“Fight! Come fight!”

“So, fierce beasts can also be battle crazed…”

But Pei Jinye had no intention whatsoever of engaging in combat with it.

In just a few breaths, Pei Jinye finally burst out of the mountain.

It was now deep into the night.

Pei Jinye was not sure if this place had been discovered by others, but he wanted to leave this troubled spot as soon as possible.

“Friend—” Suddenly, a figure shot out from the side, moving extremely quickly. His tone seemed amiable, but in reality, his sword slashed swiftly, aiming to severely injure Pei Jinye and then take him away for questioning.

Unfortunately for him, Pei Jinye was faster.

The light of the sword flashed and vanished.

The figure was bisected, their body splitting in two.

“Pfft!”

Blood sprayed as the two halves of the corpse flew outward.

Pei Jinye didn’t even spare a glance as he charged forward, but a group of armored people suddenly blocked his path.

“Friend, it’s just a little question, no need for such violence— Pfft!”

The leader didn’t even get to finish his sentence before Pei Jinye’s sword decapitated him.

A column of blood shot to the sky.

Pei Jinye said impatiently, “Get lost!”

The color drained from the faces of the people beside the leader, as they all stepped back, some reluctantly.

Almost instantly, Pei Jinye passed by them.

But before they could make a move, ice suddenly exploded under their feet and their faces turned pale with the urge to flee, but the air around them felt like a mire, preventing any struggle.

The instant casting of the Ice Surrounding Killing Technique almost instantly annihilated these men.

Pei Jinye bent down to pick up the spoils of battle, but found nothing of value apart from some common weapons.

“A bunch of paupers.”

Pei Jinye left promptly without hesitation.

At the foot of the mountain.

Under the pitch-black night, dozens of vehicle lights suddenly flared, fully exposing Pei Jinye’s figure.

A light laugh came through.

“Friend, don’t do anything rash now. If you make the slightest move, my men will act immediately. You wouldn’t want to end up as a pile of mush, would you?”

Pei Jinye’s vision was engulfed by the bright headlights, but he perceived that there were at least fifty people across from him… He didn’t know who they were, but they had managed to deploy two large cannons.

If he hadn’t devoured Gongsun Long’s memories, Pei Jinye might not have recognized that these were not ordinary cannons, but God Gate Cannons powered by elements, deadly upon contact for Transcendents below the Third Rank.

Even those below the Fifth Rank would be lucky to escape with their skins intact!

“There’s an Exotic Treasure that has descended into the mountain. Where did that ten-meter-tall behemoth go? Just tell me where it is and I’ll let you go,” said the handsome young man with a light laugh, clearly thinking he had the upper hand.

Pei Jinye’s mind stirred.

The Gigantic Blood Nightmare’s form had been spotted…

However, it was clear the other party did not connect him with the Gigantic Blood Nightmare; they probably just thought he was some hunter who had been lurking in the mountain.

“It went west,” Pei Jinye said solemnly.

As soon as the words left his mouth.

The ground in front of him was instantly pierced, leaving a fist-sized deep pit.

“Friend, lying is not a good habit,” the handsome young man said lightly. “I have people in the west too, but they told me… they found nothing.”

“Then it’s your problem, that big fellow is very strong, I guess he is at least Sixth Rank or Seventh Rank… I advise you not to trouble yourselves looking for him,” Pei Jinye said earnestly.

He didn’t care how much the other party believed him.

Inwardly, he clenched the Bloodthirsty Bead quickly recovering.

Gongsun Long, the old guy, was indeed very powerful.

Just to devour him, Pei Jinye’s Vitality Value had already dropped by over thirty points.

[Vitality Value: 59-91.3]

To ensure he was in peak condition,

Pei Jinye temporarily suppressed the killing intent in his heart.

The other side seemed somewhat uncertain about his words, with several people whispering to each other, apparently surprised by his mention of “Sixth Rank” and “Seventh Rank.”

…

“If it really is Sixth Rank, we stand no chance.”

“Just a fleeting glimpse earlier, that figure was too powerful… When did such a terrifying creature start residing here?”

Only the handsome young man spoke calmly, “If it’s really Sixth Rank, then the higher-ups would’ve already sent people here… I suspect this guy is deliberately deceiving us.”

Everyone’s gaze returned to Pei Jinye.

The handsome young man suddenly said, “You lead us there.”

“To seek death?” Pei Jinye said unpleasantly. “I just went to great lengths to escape. If you want to court death, I won’t stop you, but don’t involve me.”

“I’m ordering you, not giving you an option. Either lead us there, or I’ll kill you right now,” the handsome young man said coldly.

Pei Jinye narrowed his eyes, “Are you hell-bent on dying?”

The handsome young man still did not understand the meaning of Pei Jinye’s words, thinking he was only referring to the act of entering the mountain, he sneered, “You better worry about yourself. Once I find out you’re lying to me, I’ll kill you immediately.”

“Bringing two big cannons with you, you’re not afraid of being held accountable?” Pei Jinye probed.

“What a joke, who dares to trouble the Nangong Family!” one of the young men scoffed arrogantly, but before he could continue, his next words were cut off.

“Lead the way,” the handsome young man said indifferently.

A few weapon holders aimed their weapons at Pei Jinye, as if they would attack at the slightest provocation.

As the light shifted, Pei Jinye narrowed his eyes to look at the big cannon not far away.

He indeed wanted to run.

But the God Gate Cannon was continuously aimed at him.

So, he simply gave up that thought.

“I’ll take you there, but on one condition,” Pei Jinye said in a deep voice.

The handsome young man’s eyes narrowed, showing some impatience.

It was his companion who said sarcastically, “You’ve got demands? Let’s hear them?”

Pei Jinye’s gaze did not falter; he seemed genuinely afraid as he said, “I will only take you to the place of confrontation. As for finding that big fellow, I won’t go. You didn’t see how a fierce bird over ten meters long was crushed by his single hand. If you say he’s a Demon God, I’d believe it. To him, your cannons are just like toys.”

“Toys?”

“You know shit.”

Someone cursed.

The handsome young man had already stepped forward with his people.

“Let’s go,” he said coldly.

Pei Jinye watched him… Nangong Yan, a young elite of the Nangong Family.

In the past, he was known as one of the two great prodigies of Nagano alongside Gongsun Qianfeng.

But later, Nangong Yan left Nagano, and only returned earlier this year.

With many people from the Nangong Family holding high ranks in the Western Continent Military Department, it’s no wonder they could acquire such Elemental Cannons.

Pei Jinye turned around.

His gaze landed on the two big cannons.

Occasionally glancing at them.

Big deal with having a cannon, huh?

But the craftsmanship of these cannons… is indeed exquisite, worthy of being an official product.

During this time, Pei Jinye seemed to find no opportunity to make his move.

He led Nangong Yan and his group back into the mountains, passing the bodies they had seen earlier, which Nangong Yan didn’t even glance at.

However, as they ventured deeper into the mountains, the leveled mountainous ruins had accumulated numerous massive carcasses of fierce creatures…

It was like a pile of small hills, leaving onlookers agape.

“Second Brother, these… they couldn’t all have been killed by that big fellow, could they? It’s somewhat terrifying,” a young man whispered uncertainly to Nangong Yan.

Nangong Yan’s eyes narrowed, “There must be an Exotic Treasure that has descended. Find that big fellow and figure out a way to get the Exotic Treasure… and if we can capture and subdue it…”

The rest of his intentions were already clear.

The others were stunned for a moment, and the young man on the left swallowed nervously before stuttering, “Second Brother, is this… possible? I feel like that kid didn’t lie; we usually have trouble dealing with one fierce beast, and so many have died at once… Can we really handle it?”

“With two Elemental Cannons, even if we can’t kill him, we can badly wound him,” Nangong Yan’s light words were filled with murderous intent.

The two standing beside exchanged glances.

“Second Brother, I heard something happened to the Gongsun Family today… Gongsun Qianfeng was killed in Central State a few days ago, apparently having offended some important figure from Central State, with many casualties in the family.”

The man asked cautiously, “Perhaps it’s our Nangong Family’s chance this time.”

Nangong Yan’s handsome face remained impassive, his eyes calmly asking, “Is Gongsun Qianlong dead?”

“This…” The two young men exchanged looks, “It seems that we haven’t heard anything.”

“So he’s not dead yet…” Nangong Yan murmured with regret.

“Second Brother, this guy doesn’t seem worth mentioning,” someone said, not understanding.

“Not worth mentioning?” Nangong Yan reacted as if he had heard some ridiculous joke, but he did not explain anything.

The three brothers whispered among themselves, while Pei Jinye discreetly walked ahead, quietly releasing his Perceptual Power.

“Roar!”

A roar sounded, shaking the entire forest.

Thunderbolts filled the sky.

“Second Brother! It’s Thunderbolt again!” a young man exclaimed.

“Chase it!” Nangong Yan couldn’t hide his excitement, to have actually found it!

He turned to look at Pei Jinye.

This guy actually didn’t lie to him!

Pei Jinye withheld his gaze.

The Thunderbolt beast that shone with lightning all over did not leave, and from the roar… it seemed to be enraged by his previous retreat without a fight.

He secretly sent out a mark.

The Thunderbolt beast in the distance suddenly sensed something. Its massive body crushed the void, and the dust wave in the sky seemed to freeze suddenly. Following that, blinding Thunderbolt light accompanied by deafening thunderclaps rapidly approached from afar.

The creeping fierce beasts along the path had no time to dodge and were mercilessly crushed to death.

To the naked eye, a vast expanse of Thunderbolt light tinged with a dense blood-red hue.

“Holy shit!!!”

The people of the Nangong Family were stunned.

“Fire the cannon!” Nangong Yan’s scalp numbed as he bellowed urgently.

But a second later, there was no sound of cannons firing.

Nangong Yan suddenly turned around, his expression one of shock.

Where are my cannons???
