Chapter 511: Chapter 379: Ling Jiao Valley, Three-headed Demon Snake, and the Grand Array Trapping the Enemy

After several rounds of teleportation, Lin Chang’sheng had already used up over half his Primordial Power.

However, the ten-plus Integration Stage powerhouses behind them were relentless, hot on their heels.

An Integration-stage powerhouse’s Divine Sense could cover a range of twenty thousand miles.

Lin Chang’sheng’s teleportation could only cover a thousand miles at most each time; shaking off these Integration experts was easier said than done.

"Up ahead is Ling Jiao Valley—maybe we can hide there!"

Wang Huisheng said as he gazed at the undulating mountain range ahead.

At this point, they had no alternatives left. If they kept fleeing without a plan, they’d just be running straight to their deaths. Might as well try their luck in Ling Jiao Valley.

It was said that, back in the day, a powerful Tribulation Crossing expert had perished here, entombing himself underground with an ancient Spirit Wood Coffin.

Countless cultivators scoured the valley searching for this Tribulation expert’s Spirit Coffin, but none ever found it.

And in their search for the Spirit Coffin, not a few cultivators were killed by a formidable Spirit Beast guarding the area.

This Spirit Beast was rumored to have been the contracted beast of the fallen cultivator.

Before his death, the cultivator broke his bond with the Spirit Beast, pain of backlash be damned.

As a result, the Spirit Beast survived even after the cultivator’s demise.

Rumor had it that the Spirit Beast also developed intelligence, sharing a deep bond with its former master.

Even after the cultivator died, the Spirit Beast remained, vigilantly guarding his Spirit Coffin amid the mountains.

That’s why, later on, the place was named the Ling Jiu Mountain Range.

With such a powerful Spirit Beast present, most cultivators were too afraid to trespass, and the Demon Beasts here only grew in number and strength.

Some Divinity Transformation and Void Refining cultivators only dared hunt Demon Beasts near the outskirts—none would go in too deep.

Otherwise, if they ran into the Spirit Beast guarding the Spirit Coffin, death would be the only outcome.

"Going to the Ling Jiu Mountain Range? Isn’t that a death sentence?"

Zhang Haoran’s heart jumped at Wang Huisheng’s suggestion.

He’d heard tales of the Ling Jiu Mountain Range as well.

The Fierce Beasts inside were insanely strong, not to mention the terrifying Spirit Beast. There was no way they could survive in there.

"Unless you have a better idea?"

Wang Huisheng shot back.

That shut Zhang Haoran right up. Truth be told, they had no better options left.

When Wang Huisheng pitched this plan to Lin Chang’sheng, Lin agreed without hesitation.

Dangerous as the Ling Jiu Mountain Range was, staying here or running blindly would just get them all killed.

The dozens of Integration-stage experts weren’t about to show them any mercy.

"Go!"

Lin Chang’sheng led the charge toward the Ling Jiu Mountain Range.

The rest had no choice but to quickly follow.

If they left Lin Chang’sheng’s side, their deaths would only come faster.

Lin Chang’sheng’s group had barely just left.

The dozen-odd Integration experts arrived right after.

"They’ve headed toward the Ling Jiu Mountain Range—what should we do?"

One Integration expert’s face dropped when he saw which way Lin Chang’sheng’s group had fled.

There was a monstrous Spirit Beast deep in those mountains. Without Mahayana cultivation, if you ran into it, even they were as good as dead.

"What else can we do? If we don’t kill that brat, going back means death for us too! Keep after them!"

The Integration expert in the black mask gave the command.

This man seemed to be the highest-ranking among the Integration experts.

The others, hearing the black-masked man’s words, didn’t dare object.

They steeled themselves and chased into the Ling Jiu Mountain Range at full speed.

Hopefully, they’d catch Lin Chang’sheng and his group before they reached the inner depths.

If they went deep into Ling Jiu Mountain Range, their own lives were in jeopardy too.

Roaaar—

Howl—

The Demon Beasts inside Ling Jiu Mountain Range were everywhere. As soon as Lin Chang’sheng and company entered, they heard countless Demon Beasts roaring through the mountains.

A few wild raptors even swooped in to attack, but unfortunately their cultivation wasn’t high. With a sweep of Lin Chang’sheng and Wang Huisheng’s Blade Aura and Sword Qi, they were dead meat.

"We’re almost to the heart of Ling Jiu Mountain Range—better not fly through the air anymore!"

Wang Huisheng suggested cautiously.

Flying overhead made them a clear target for Demon Beasts on the ground.

If they got hemmed in by both the Integration experts and the mountain Demon Beasts, they’d be in deep trouble.

Lin Chang’sheng agreed, and the group landed and began darting through the forest on foot.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—

Moments later, the Integration experts closed in behind them.

"These little bastards are slippery! Think hiding in the Ling Jiu Mountain Range will save you?"

The black-masked Integration expert cursed, but he didn’t dare fly in the open either, simply following Lin Chang’sheng’s tracks as best he could.

...

Ling Jiu Mountain Range.

Miles beneath the ground, a massive Spirit Wood Ancient Coffin lay peacefully within a grand stone chamber.

The Great Hall was built on a vast scale; massive Coiled Dragon Stone Pillars held up the ceiling, and hundreds of Luminous Beads cast the stone chamber in daylight brilliance.

Rivers of dense Spiritual Energy constantly poured out from the Ancient Coffin, proof the Spirit Wood was anything but ordinary.

Not far from the coffin was a huge deep pool. Thanks to the rich Spiritual Energy, the spring had become a Spiritual Spring.

On the bank of that spring, a monstrous beast lay quietly.

This Demon Beast’s Qilin Armor was as tough as iron, thick as Dragon Scales.

It was, without a doubt, a colossal beast on the verge of becoming a Dragon Python.

It had three heads—and each head was a different color, making it look doubly bizarre.

One was blazing red, seemingly able to spew flames; another was deep blue, radiating waves of freezing ice.
