Reverse War Surpass Immortal

Chapter 73: This Isn't Over with You



"Quick, the guards who discovered Duan Gujin and Meng Yun immediately struck a huge bell drum placed beside them.

The boom, boom, boom resounded unceasingly in their ears, echoing through the heavens.

Upon hearing that massive bell drum sound, everyone inside and outside the cave knew something major had occurred.

Those previously controlled by Duan Gujin panicked, many choosing to flee.

They knew they were bound to die either way; they might as well try to escape and live another day if possible.

"Enemy attack!"

Quickly, the leader who had just stepped out of the secret chamber heard the bell drum and furrowed his brows tightly, his body flashed and he transformed into a streak of light, rushing out.

He found a local guard and inquired for details.

The guard told him that they had previously discovered two suspicious individuals and were now in pursuit of them.

"Suspicious individuals?"

The leader's brows tightened further as his heart suddenly began thudding violently.

"My precious ones!"

His complexion drastically changed, filled with horror; his body flashed and he transformed into a streak of light, rushing rapidly towards where he was keeping the Cannibal Wolves.

When he saw all the Cannibal Wolves lying motionless on the ground, his mind immediately cursed, fearing the worst had happened.

"Hope they are unharmed!"

Holding onto the last shred of hope, the leader leaped down into the pit.

When he saw that all the Cannibal Wolves were dead, his face turned ashen, and he slumped to the ground, paralyzed.

He muttered to himself: "It's over! I'm finished this time!"

His mind quickly flashed through the hardships of training the Cannibal Wolves, feeling the past times were akin to hell on earth.

To cultivate the strongest Cannibal Wolves, he refined many Elixir Pills.

Each time he refined elixirs, there was no guarantee of success.

If it were a success, that wouldn't be a big problem.

But he was no genius alchemist; in refining these elixirs, he faced life-threatening dangers.

Several times, he was blown away, and he still bears many scars from Pill Furnace explosions on his body.

The success he achieved was by no means easy!

He refined Elixir Pills for the Cannibal Wolves to devour and was raising them; once this was exposed, he became the public enemy of all alchemists in Qiankun Country and even had a hefty bounty on his head.

His entire family was killed by alchemists from Qiankun Country; his heart was filled with deep hatred for all the alchemists in Qiankun Country, and he sought revenge.

For an alchemist like him, seeking revenge meant on one hand raising his own Cultivation, and on the other, refining Poison Pills that other alchemists couldn't resist, or leveraging external forces to deal with all the alchemists in Qiankun Country.

So, he chose to raise a large group of Cannibal Wolves, intending to turn them into deadly weapons, invulnerable to all poisons, with skin as hard as steel.

He hid in this cave and used poisoning to coerce many people into working for him.

He had finally achieved success in his Cultivation today, which is why he decided to come out of seclusion.

And his Cannibal Wolves had grown strong; given time, they would become the untouchable, steel-skinned murderous weapons he envisioned.

Just when he was full of confidence and ambition, he would never have imagined that the Cannibal Wolves he painstakingly cultivated were now all dead.

His heart was filled with immense grief and sorrow to the point of nearly shedding tears.

After a while, he finally came to his senses: "Who did this?"

He immediately rushed out and captured a local guard to inquire in detail.

After a while, he learned that someone had infiltrated the cave.

"Chase them!"

The leader transformed into a streak of light and darted out with extreme speed.

However, what he didn't expect was that shortly after exiting the cave, he felt a wave of dizziness and lightheadedness. His face slightly changed, and he realized he had been poisoned.

"When did I get poisoned?"

He quickly took out some Detoxification Elixirs from his storage ring and swallowed them hurriedly, circulating his Primordial Power to detoxify swiftly.

As time ticked by, in less than 15 minutes, he confirmed that he had neutralized the poison he had been afflicted with.

"What a pity!"

By now, the leader knew that the enemies who had sneaked into the cave must have probably escaped.

He understood that no matter how hard he tried, it would be difficult to catch up with the enemy that infiltrated the cave.

"Could it be that the person who ambushed this place was an alchemist from Qiankun Country?"

The leader's mind was racing; after some thought, he felt it was highly likely that an alchemist from Qiankun Country had infiltrated this place.

"Only an alchemist from Qiankun Country would know that I keep a large pack of Cannibal Wolves, and only they would think to eliminate the pack I've cultivated!"

After pondering for a while, the leader became increasingly convinced that the enemy who had just appeared must have been sent by Qiankun Country, specifically targeting his Cannibal Wolves.

"This place is no longer safe! Where there is life, there is hope!"

With a flash in his eyes, the leader decided to make a hasty retreat from here.

He rushed back to the cave and put all the bodies of the Cannibal Wolves into his storage ring.

Although the Cannibal Wolves were dead, their corpses still had some uses to him.

Soon, he arrived at the secret chamber where he kept various materials.

When he saw the completely empty secret chamber, he was utterly dumbfounded.

"Damn it all!"

The leader was stricken by grief and anger, he tasted sweetness in his throat and a mouthful of hot blood sprayed out.

"How I hate this!"

The immense frustration in the leader's heart was overwhelming; he couldn't believe that all the materials he had painstakingly collected had vanished.

"Star Pill Association! I, Ling Tianfeng, will never let this go!"

The leader, Ling Tianfeng, immediately thought that this was most likely the doing of the most famous Alchemy Guild in Qiankun Country, the Star Pill Association.

After all, his family was also annihilated by the Star Pill Association.

He and the Star Pill Association had a deep-seated hatred!

Ling Tianfeng's mind was spinning fast. He immediately realized that the Star Pill Association's people must have discovered this cave, and had infiltrated to eliminate his Cannibal Wolves and had also plundered him.

His losses were now truly grievous!

"I should leave this place!"

Ling Tianfeng knew he should not stay for long, fearing that the Star Pill Association might already be watching this place.

After escaping the cave, Duan Gujin had not returned; he was clear in his mind that with his current strength, he was no match for the Cannibal Wolf leader.

"When will that Corpse-eating Poison Father appear?"

Duan Gujin didn't ponder over this issue for too long. That Corpse-eating Poison Father wouldn't show up just yet anyway.

After returning to the Capital City of Gulai City, he bid Meng Yun farewell.

The moment they entered the city gates, they were spotted by the subordinates of Cao Wentian.

Upon hearing the news, Cao Wentian murmured, "What a pair of adulterous lovers! Actually taking time off to go out and live a life of pleasure!"

Cao Wentian immediately summoned his subordinates and asked them to come up with ideas.

The subordinate promptly advised Cao Wentian to hire a highly-priced assassin.

"The last assassin was too weak. I believe there must be someone protecting Duan Gujin! So, we need a top-tier expert!"

Cao Wentian furrowed his brows and pondered for a while, and felt that his subordinate's suggestion made a lot of sense.

All the people he had previously sent had not returned; there was no sign of them alive or dead.

If it weren't for the reputation of that assassin organization, he would certainly think that the assassin organization had scammed him for money.

But now he seriously considered another possibility: it's very likely that the assassins from the assassin organization had been killed by the expert protecting Duan Gujin.

If that was truly the case, then he would have to send an even stronger assassin to deal with the expert protecting Duan Gujin.

"Duan Gujin must die!"

A cold gleam flashed in Cao Wentian's eyes.

But to hire an even stronger assassin to do his bidding, he would need to pay a huge sum of money.

And so, he had no choice but to sell some of his family assets.

"The moment my father ascends the throne, then I will have endless family wealth. The assets I am losing now are worth it!"

This time, Cao Wentian spent nearly two-thirds of his family wealth, selling it for nearly five million Gold Coins, and he hired a highly skilled assassin to serve him.

Meanwhile, Duan Gujin was preparing to make good use of the materials he found in the cave to refine Elixir Pills that could enhance his Cultivation.

"Finally, I have gathered all the materials!"

Duan Gujin exhaled a breath of turbid air. He put the materials he had found in the secret chamber of the cave into the Pill Furnace and began to refine.

The Elixir Pills he was now refining were highly toxic; although consuming them would enhance his Cultivation, they required a certain amount of time to detoxify.

Despite such severe negative effects of these Elixir Pills, he knew it was the best option for himself.
