Chapter 112: Enormous Boundary Power!
"Xiao Ling, at what level can I fly?" Lin Tian looked at the Sword Saint flying away with his sword and said enviously, "Master, using Wind System 5th Level Magic Flight Technique, you can already fly now, but it's relatively slow. Also, when your strength reaches the Golden Elixir Period High Master level, you'll also be able to fly!"
"Jīn dān qī a, zěn me kàn zěn me yǎo yuǎn!" Lín Tiān cóng shí tou nà miàn chū lái, fēi sù de xiàng zhe shān dǐng pǎo qù. Yǒu Xiǎo Líng de zhǐ diǎn, Lín Tiān hěn kuài de jìn dào le nà huǒ xì jù lóng Sī Nuò Kè de lóng xué zhōng! "Cāo, jù lóng xǐ huān jīn bì, zhè jué duì bù jiǎ a!" Dāng Lín Tiān kàn dào nà duī mǎn yī dì de jīn bì shí, jīng yà de dào.
Gold coins, magic wands, treasure swords, magic cores... The treasures are really too numerous to count! And in the corner, that giant egg that's almost half a person tall also shocked Lin Tian, "A dragon is indeed a dragon, even its eggs are so big!" Lin Tian muttered to himself, "Xiao Ling, can this thing be stored in the Star Ring space? Can it still be taken out after being stored? And how much realm power will it take?"
"Master, it will cost 50 units of dimensional energy to store it away, but you can take it out!" Xiao Ling said. "50 units of dimensional energy, that's barely acceptable, alright, store it away!" Lin Tian said, and then Xiao Ling stored the giant egg into the Star Ring space. "Xiao Ling, which things in this cave won't lose value if we store them in the Star Ring space?" Lin Tian asked.
"Master, you'd better pick up that magic core in the corner first, you've made a big profit this time!" Xiao Ling said. "Magic core?" Lin Tian's heart was delighted, he hadn't even noticed the magic core yet, it was just that the gold coins on the ground were too dazzling, and the magic wand and treasure sword Kai Jia had also caught his eye!
Arriving at the corner, Lin Tian took a deep breath and saw a large pile of magic cores, estimated to be around one or two hundred, "Xiao Ling, absorb, absorb all of them!" Lin Tian excitedly shouted. These magic cores were not smaller than the six-level magic core that Berni had taken out back then, while the largest ones were as big as fists and emitted a faint energy aura.
"Alright, master. There are 62 level-6 magic cores, 33 level-7 magic cores, 21 level-8 magic cores, and 10 level-9 magic cores, totaling 126 cores. They can be converted into a total of 65,000 units of boundary energy! Absorption will begin in two minutes!" Xiao Ling said.
Lin Tian was stunned and muttered: "Xiao Ling, say it again, how much dimensional energy can be converted?"
"Sixty-five thousand volts, sir!"
"Hahaha, 650,000 vitality points! If I absorb them all, it's worth dying for! Xiao Ling, I love you so much! Plundering the Dragon's Den is indeed the best way to get rich! Lin Tian laughed maniacally, his eyes shining as he looked at the equipment: "Xiao Ling, these things must be very valuable, right? When we sell them and exchange them for magic cores, it'll be a huge profit! Haha, this world is just too wonderful!"
Two minutes passed quickly, and all the magic cores had been converted into boundary power. The dozens of precious-looking magic wands, swords, and armor on the ground had also entered the Star Ring space. Lin Tian reluctantly looked at the pile of gold coins and the several treasures that he didn't have time to collect, turned around and quickly exited the dragon cave, then cast flying magic on himself, used Lingbo Micro Steps, and quickly drilled into the dense forest.
Very soon, a shouting voice came from below: "Quickly, we must take away the dragon egg before the giant dragon returns! If possible, take all the treasures in the dragon cave!" Responding to him was a welcoming voice. More than a dozen warriors and magicians rushed into the dragon cave quickly!
"Ah, who is it? Who has stolen all the treasures here!" A thunderous roar echoed inside the Dragon Cave. Lin Tian had already left for one or two kilometers, but he could still hear it clearly! "We ordinary people are really happy today, really happy!" Lin Tian descended from the mountain, humming a tune as he quickly fled away!
He didn't take the main road, but instead treaded lightly and swiftly through the dense forest. Lin Tian wasn't stupid enough to walk on the main road; those who entered the Dragon's Lair were mostly Swordsmen or Demon Mages, and being chased by them would be disastrous. Although he could directly enter the Star Ring space, unless absolutely necessary, Lin Tian didn't want to rely too heavily on it for escape.
Otherwise, you may gradually lose your courage in the face of strong opponents!
Half an hour later, Lin Tian had advanced forty kilometers into the dense forest! "It should be impossible to find me now!" Lin Tian chuckled lightly and flew onto a massive branch of a giant tree using his flying technique. "That huge dragon better hurry up, don't make me wait too long, or else I'll have a taste of dragon eggs!" Lin Tian muttered to himself.
Twenty minutes later, a dull "boom" sound came from afar. The distance the sound traveled was extremely far, probably over 200 kilometers. Yet, Lin Tian could still hear a relatively loud sound even from 200 kilometers away, and the ground even trembled slightly! "What happened?" Lin Tian stood up, looking in the direction of the sound, but it was impossible to see anything at such a great distance.
"Master, if Xiaoling's guess is correct, that giant dragon is probably already dead!" Xiaoling said in Lin Tian's mind. "Dead? You mean the explosion..."
"That must be the giant dragon self-destructing! It's all because the news of the dragon egg in the dragon's den got out, and this place is too close to Leiyun City!" Xiaoling said. Lin Tian nodded slightly, how could a powerful giant dragon be allowed to exist here?! "Xiaoling, that giant dragon seems to be male, why would it lay eggs?" Lin Tian asked doubtfully.
"Master, you're really stupid. The dragon egg in that cave just means it was laid by that giant dragon? That's his child, but he's only the father. Now you know, right!" Xiaoling said disdainfully. "Uh, so there's another mother dragon, then where is that mother dragon?"
"Master, Xiaoling is not omnipotent!"
Lin Tian let out a soft sigh, thought for a moment, and headed in the direction of the explosion. Two hours later, he had arrived at the location of the blast, which was in a forest. However, within a radius of ten kilometers from that spot, a massive crater had appeared, with its center reaching depths of tens of meters!
Lin Tian's arrival didn't attract much attention, as many people were drawn in by the massive explosion. Seeing the enormous crater, Lin Tian took a deep breath and thought to himself, "Little Spirit, do you think those two Law Sages and that Sword Sage are dead?"
"It's possible that one or two of them died, but it's more likely that none of them did," said Xiao Ling. "Of course, they must have been injured!" Lin Tianqi asked: "Xiao Ling, didn't you say their strengths were evenly matched? How could the giant dragon be forced to self-destruct so quickly?"
"Clumsy master, don't you know there's a word called ambush? Would the people of the Thunder Cloud Empire make a move if they weren't confident in taking down that giant dragon?" said Xiao Lingdao.
Lin Tian was speechless, and since he had obtained so many realm powers, his excitement had caused his IQ to drop significantly! Taking a deep breath, Lin Tian calmed himself down. "Getting excited over just tens of thousands of realm powers is really not worthy of me!" Lin Tian muttered to himself in self-derision.
With this calm, Lin Tian's thinking suddenly became much sharper! "Xiao Ling, did the three holy-level powerhouses on that mountain back then detect my aura?" Lin Tian asked. "No, Master, the first to discover you was that strongest giant dragon, and it immediately sealed your aura, so your aura wasn't detected by those three holy-level powerhouses!" Xiao Ling said.
Lin Tian nodded: "In other words, as long as I don't take out that dragon egg, I estimate no one can find me. Ah, the dragon egg, if sold to the Lei Yun Empire, it's estimated to be worth a lot of magic cores. However, since my boundary power is not lacking at the moment, I won't do such a thing for now. Taking someone else's treasure and then selling their child, that's too unscrupulous!"
Not far from the giant pit, there was a big road. Lin Tian arrived at the side of the road and happened to meet a merchant group heading to Leiyun City. After performing two small magic tricks, Lin Tian blended in with the merchant group and sat in a horse carriage. A magician was a powerful figure, after all, and his status wasn't comparable to that of an ordinary small merchant!
In the carriage, apart from him, there was an old man and a fifteen or sixteen year-old girl with big eyes that sparkled like water, very lovely! "Respected magician sir, my name is Yasha, this is my grandfather!" The girl said with sparkling eyes.
"My name is Lin Tian, Yasha you can just call me by my name!" Lin Tian said. "Good day, old man!" "Hello, Mr. Lin Tian!" The old man was a bit reserved, from their clothes, Lin Tian could tell that they were not well off, Yasha's clothes were clean but very simple!
"Old man, no need to call me sir, it's fate that we've met. I can tell that you seem to have something difficult to say, why not speak out? If it's not a big deal, Lin Tian might be able to help a bit!" Lin Tian said. "This..." The old man looked at Lin Tian and then at Yasha, gritted his teeth and respectfully said: "I just hope that little Sasha can enter the Hans Magic Academy to study, so she can have a good life in the future!"
Lin Tian nodded and said, "This is a good thing, what's the problem?" The old man said, "It's just that Xiaosa's talent is only D-level, barely meeting the requirements for learning magic. If you want to enter Hans Magic Academy, it will take a lot of gold coins!"
"Grandpa, let me say it!" Yasha said. "Sigh, okay, you go ahead and say it."
"In our village, the only relatively wealthy person, who is also the owner of this merchant group, promised to give me the gold coins for my education if I marry his son. I want to learn well and make Grandpa live a good life in the future!" Yasha said softly, with tears shining in her big eyes. "But little Sasha, Par's son is an idiot who doesn't understand anything!" The old man hugged Yasha and wept.
What a sad thing it is that there's no place in the world where sorrow doesn't exist! Lin Tian secretly sighed and said, "Don't worry, Yasha, I'll take care of your tuition!"
"But, Yasha has already promised Pani, otherwise we wouldn't be on this carriage!" The old man said. "A small merchant's owner, if he listens then it's fine, but if not, I will naturally make him listen!" Lin Tian coldly said, using coercive means to force a young girl into marrying his own idiot son, probably not a good person!
The caravan's speed wasn't very fast, and the distance they covered in half a day was something Lin Tian could have easily traversed in an hour if he had gone all out. However, there were two reasons why Lin Tian didn't do so: firstly, he wasn't in a hurry at the moment; secondly, if he were to travel at such a fast speed, he might arouse suspicion from those searching for the Dragon's Den everywhere!
In the late afternoon, the merchant group stopped beside a road with a small stream running through it. Lin Tian, the old man and Yasha got off the carriage. A middle-aged fat man walked over: "Respected magician sir, are you satisfied?" The fat man said, his eyes constantly glancing at Yasha, a thread of lust flashing in his eyes!
Lin Tian saw it with his own eyes, but in his heart, he was clear that this fat man's son was an idiot. If Yasha really married him, her clean body would probably be taken by the fat man in the end. On the night of the wedding, the one who got into bed wouldn't be the groom, but the groom's father!
"Are you Pani?" Lin Tian said calmly. "Yes, I am Pani, the owner of this merchant group!" Pani seemed to have detected the impoliteness in Lin Tian's words and his tone also became impolite, thinking to himself that he was just a low-level magician, and if they were to fight, there were several mid-level swordsmen in his own merchant group who wouldn't be afraid of him!
"You're actually going to force Yasha to marry that idiot son of yours?!" Lin Tian said coldly. Pani sneered, "What's with the 'force'? This is all voluntary on Yasha's part, it's just a fair trade!" "Fair trade?" Lin Tian laughed coldly, "Yasha and her grandfather are blind to this, do you think I am too? Are you really going to let her learn magic? If so, won't you be worried that one day she'll become skilled and take revenge?!"
Pani's face changed, and he said viciously: "You little brat, don't interfere in other people's business. Even if you are a magician, our caravan of over 20 people is not something you can handle!" Along with his voice, four warriors carrying large swords surrounded Lin Tian! "Get out if you don't want to die, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless!" Lin Tian swept a glance at the four men and said in a cold voice.
"Kill him, he's a magician, he must have some valuable things on him!" Pani shouted loudly. The four swordsmen simultaneously let out a loud roar and charged at Lin Tian with their giant swords, causing Yasha behind him to turn pale and scream in fright!
"How dare you!" Lin Tianru waved his hand like a fly swatter, and the four swordsmen's advancing bodies came to an abrupt halt, each with a water arrow having pierced a hole in their chest! They were dead, and the rest of the merchant group was frightened pale and retreating backward, while that fat guy Pani had his legs weakened to the point where he couldn't even retreat!
"Don't kill me! Don't kill me! Yasha is yours, yes, Yasha is yours to enjoy, don't kill me!" The fat man cried out as he fell to the ground.
