Chapter 542: Dark Omen Valley (2)

(Unedited)

…

Darkness everywhere and the smell of sulfur is in the air, along with the dreary environment a thick poisonous miasma covered the whole valley. The vegetation that grew in this place is filled with poison and dark Qi. For thousands of years, this place has been visited by those who dare to venture but not everyone would come back.

And those who have a chance to come back would return with rare diseases and would carry plague towards their villages and towns. Hence this place is one of the most dreaded places near the border of the kingdom of Yi towards the edge of the boundary to the Daemon forest.

This place is called the Dark Omen Valley.

Dangerous as it may, many still would dare venture in this place for the purpose of getting rare medicinal and poisonous herbs.

Most of the people that would dare enter this place are poison master and cultivators that cultivate dark Qi.

In the Blood Moon Sect, there is a pavilion in the sect that focuses on cultivating darkness Qi. Although they do not practice dark magic, they are able to use Yin Qi for their cultivation. And most of the cultivators that practice such a cultivation method are weak looking men and women with icy temperament.

Right at this moment, Shin Jiao is currently walking with Qinyon Jing who is wearing a traditional light gray nun's robe.

She is leading him inside a temple. Before he could even enter he already felt the darkness Qi inside the temple and the thick dark Qi enveloping the whole temple.

Shin Jiao scanned the area and he saw the same young man who was granted the same reward as him and the siblings. Shin Jiao remembers that his name is Luji Lao.

Luji Lao is currently inside a room and talking with another young man who seems to be angry at him. Luji Lao seems to cower as the one who seems to be bullying him. The bully suddenly grabs the corner of Luji Lao's robe and lifted him up with ease.

A look of desperation can be seen in Luji Lao's eyes as he hesitantly took out a spatial pouch and handed it to the bully. Upon seeing the pouch, the bully smile and immediately took it, then threw Luji Lao with ease to the side like he is nothing.

"Haha… it seems that you are this sensible." The bully said as he weighs the pouch in his hand with a wide grin on his face.

Shin Jiao didn't want to interfere with this but it seems that the woman beside him already noticed the commotion.

"Don't mind them. This thing will give them experience." She said with a smile.

"It's either that or it will drive them into further desperation and then to destruction." Shin Jiao said with a meaningful smile.

Qinyon Jing frowns at what Shin Jiao said. She actually didn't agree with his words.

"I guess senior don't agree with my words… however, let me prove you wrong." Shin Jiao said as he pointed towards the area where Luji Lao and the bully were.

Then suddenly, her eyes went wide in disbelief. That is because the bully who is holding the pouch suddenly collapses to the ground. And Luji Jiao is now taking out a sword from his spatial tool.

"You have pushed me too far… you have humiliated me, and beaten me up… but that's fine with me. However, I already told you that my brother needed that money. And still, you insist to take it… you can bully me, but you cannot take what is for my family!" Luji Lao said with reddened eyes as he takes his step towards the bully.

However, before he could walk closer, a figure suddenly appears in front of him, it was Qinyon Jing. She glared angrily at Luji Lao.

"It's not worth it… but I hope that the teachers in here would not neglect such a thing from happening again." Suddenly Shin Jiao said as he appears beside Luji Lao while holding his hand which is already shaking in anger and fear.

Shin Jiao then walked towards the bully and suddenly in front of Qinyon Jing began to pummel the young man into a pulp.

Bam! Bam! Bam!

"Stop! What are you doing?" she suddenly asked in anger.

"Oh… I thought you said that bullying others will give them experience. Then if I do this, it will give this guy experience, right?"

"You…" Qinyon Jing was dumbfounded and could not react.

She is actually angry because that young man is a relative of one of the elders of the sect. She knew that once this thing will spread, it would spell trouble for her grandfather.

"See… if you have stopped it at the beginning. The problem would have already been solved. But no… you just have to make it worst."

The reason why Shin Jiao did this is to get on the good books of that young man. This is because when that young man uses the poison on the pouch he immediately noticed the same traces of minute poison powder on one of the strips of cloth he found on the road.

It was a paralysis powder and is very effective.

And true to his conjecture the young man is now looking at Shin Jiao with admiration as he is able to go against one of the heads of the sect and a powerful master of array formation at that.

Qinyon Jing didn't want to bother with Shin Jiao and just angrily walked towards the place where she was assigned to lead him.

Shin Jiao didn't bother with anything anymore and just walked behind her in silence.

When the two of them enter a large and spacious room, Qinyon Jing suddenly turns around and with a quick movement began to attack Shin Jiao.

She didn't want to attack him as she didn't want to show to others that she is bullying a junior. However, she led him to a place where there are an array formation and a protective array. In this place, she can teach that smug young man a lesson.

However, how can she know that Shin Jiao is already expecting such a thing from happening?

And so with a simple shift of his body, she missed him by a hair's breadth. But she didn't stop there as her fingers suddenly turn into claws and swipe sideways towards Shin Jiao's body. But he already predicted such a movement and so with a simple wave of his hand parry's the arm of Qinyon Jing.

He even counters by slicing a portion of the sleeves of her robe. And his nail even scratched her milky white skin underneath.

"If you attack, expect someone to fight back." Shin Jiao said with a smile.

"You!..." Qinyon Jing immediately became angry.

And she began throwing hundreds of strikes at Shin Jiao, but none of them hit him. He easily dodges her strike as he is able to follow her movement. If his physique is not in the nascent realm, then he is sure that he would have already been hit many times over.

However, with his eyes speed, he is able to catch her movements as if she is moving in slow motion.

The smile on Shin Jiao's face immediately made Qinyon Jing angry. She is a world nascent realm expert, how can she not hit a mere nascent realm ant? With that anger, she suddenly lost control of her cultivation level and her Qi suddenly erupted out of her body.

"…" Shin Jiao immediately turned serious.

"Miss Jing… is you can't control yourself. I will really fight back with all I have. I may not be able to defeat you… but having the both of us suffer would not be that hard for me." Shin Jiao suddenly said in a serious tone.

His words made Qinyon Jing smirked.

She suddenly concentrated the Qi in both of her hands. Though she is angry she still can control the amount of Qi she is using, because if she uses too much, this whole temple will explode into pieces.

But before she can act, Shin Jiao immediately waves his hand and hit his chest. And with that, black metallic armor suddenly covered his body from head to toe.

This made Qinyon Jing a bit taken aback. And before she knew it, Shin Jiao has already turned into a man covered in black metal armor. But what surprises her is that it seems that he can move freely while wearing such a cumbersome thing.

"You… you're not a cultivator, right? You are a magus warrior!…" she exclaimed as she suddenly retracted her Qi.

"Well, I told you… I am unable to defeat you through the normal process… but with this exoskeleton, I may have a chance."

"Humph…" she harrumphs and suddenly turns around.

As if nothing has happened, the two left the huge room and walked towards another path.

Shin Jiao didn't want to bother with her anymore and just decided to follow her quietly.

And soon they arrive at their destination.

It was a portal with many students lining up.

Qinyon Jing didn't say anything and just turn around and left. Shin Jiao didn't bother with her and just shook his head with a smile. He knew that he has offended a powerful cultivator, but he didn't care. He will just find that young man named Luji Lao and then ask him about the paralysis poison he used.

When he turns around to go back, he immediately saw Luji Lao appearing from the corner. It seems that he was following them in secret.

Seeing the young man, Shin Jiao felt that his luck is really good today.

With a smile, he walked towards him.

"Senior Ji… I… I want to thank you for the things you did before. You have helped me twice already."

"Ah… no worries."

"If senior wanted something, and if I can give it, then all you have to do is ask." Luji Lao said with a bright expression on his handsome face.

"Hmmm… alright… I just want to ask you a question." Shin Jiao said and then take a glance at the pouch on his side.

"Can you tell me where you got the paralysis poison that was smeared on the surface that thing?"

Shin Jiao's question suddenly stunned the young man.
