The noise was horrifying. It sounded like a sobbing baby in the pitch-black silence of the forest.

Lin Xun’s heart shuddered violently.

Before he could investigate, a gray blur swooped out of the darkness with a swoosh, moving at an inconceivable speed!

The gray silhouette suddenly revealed itself to be a little girl. She timidly stood there and softly asked, “Big Brother, are you lost? Why are you here alone?”

Lin Xun was terrified to find that the little girl looked strikingly similar to Xia Zhi. Her brows were perfectly drawn, and her little face was the pinnacle of beauty. It was beauty that could not exist in the mortal coil and made the surroundings appear dim in comparison.

The little girl softly asked, “Big Brother, why aren’t you talking?”

Her voice was clear, and there was a peaceful expression on her little face. Even her mannerisms and voice were exactly the same as Xia Zhi’s.

“I…”

Lin Xun was stunned.

“Don’t say anything, let me guess.”

A slight smile rose from the corners of the little girl’s mouth. It was a smile that would take anyone’s breath away.

She slowly stepped closer as she said, “It’s your first time coming to Mount Luohou, and you must have many questions, right?”

Lin Xun subconsciously nodded.

The little girl’s smile grew wider. “Big Brother, I can help you. As long as you listen to me, all of your questions will be answered.”

There was an unexplainable softness and illusory allure in her voice that made it impossible to resist.

Lin Xun looked hypnotized as if his mind was no longer his own.

Upon seeing this, the little girl quickened her footsteps. She stopped a step from Lin Xun, raised her little face, and softly said, “Big Brother, follow me. I will bring you to the answers you seek.”

As she spoke, she raised her little hand and reached toward Lin Xun’s wrist.

At this moment, a smile suddenly rose from the corners of Lin Xun’s mouth.

Bang!

He instantly moved and grabbed the little girl’s neck.

“Big Brother, what are you doing?”

The little girl was greatly alarmed. Gray light rose from her body and surged toward Lin Xun.

Faint blue divine light rose around Lin Xun, causing his aura to rise rapidly as the gray light was smashed apart and swallowed.

Smiling, Lin Xun asked, “What are you trying to do?”

The little girl’s face paled, realizing the situation was taking a turn for the worse. She displayed a pitiful look and said, “Big Brother, please let me off. I didn’t mean to do this. Please be merciful.”

“No can’t do.”

Lin Xun smiled and shook his head. “As far as I know, a wood charm spirit is a trickster that will never beg for forgiveness.”

“You…”

The little girl’s expression changed drastically as she released a piercing baby-like howl. The sound wave viciously thrust toward Lin Xun like a spinning drill.

Bzz!

Despite being on guard, Lin Xun felt a piercing pain in his ears as a strange, terrifying, and ice-cold power stabbed at his mind-sea spirit!

Charm spirit howl!

No matter how strong a person’s cultivation was, they would be seriously injured in an instant if their spirit was not strong enough.

The little girl smiled strangely. She was certain that the young man had been hit by her attack. The thought of soon consuming a spirit filled with such abundant vital energy caused a sinister and smug look to surge in her eyes.

However, they soon widened in shock.

The young man grinned as he looked at her, his clear black eyes frighteningly composed. There was no indication of him sustaining any injury.

Lin Xun chuckled and said, “Trying to hurt my spirit? Your cultivation isn’t strong enough. Do you have any other tricks? If not, let me send you on your way.”

The little girl’s expression changed drastically as she released another piercing howl.

This time, her appearance also changed. Her skin became pale green, her eyes became white, hollow, and vicious, and tiny sharp teeth sprung up in her mouth. It was an extremely terrifying appearance.

Lin Xun did not move. Stars swirled in his mind-sea, easily neutralizing the spirit attack.

“You…”

The monster shrieked, clearly realizing that it was fruitless as she struggled to escape.

Bang!

Lin Xun raised his hand and swung it downwards. Dreadful power spewed from his fingers as he firmly grabbed the monster’s head and squeezed.

Rumble~~

Faint blue divine light blazed as it instantly engulfed the monster. Lin Xun did not relax his grip no matter how it shrieked and wailed.

Moments later, the wailing abruptly stopped. A gleaming green skull-shaped crystal was left in Lin Xun’s hand.

Inside it, one could faintly see what seemed to be a frantically struggling spirit.

Lin Xun carefully turned it in his hand as admiration was revealed in his eyes.

A wood charm spirit!

It was a rare nature spirit that was deceitful and vicious by nature. It was adept at the art of transformation and possessed a secret art that could peer into a person’s heart. It loved to feast on spirits, and any place it appeared would soon become devoid of life and be avoided by the wildlife.

This explained why not even a worm could be found in the old and silent forest.

It was because this was the territory of a wood charm spirit!

Lin Xun had not been certain until he saw it take on Xia Zhi’s appearance and try to entice him.

Hence, he acted as if he had succumbed and swiftly captured it at the critical juncture!

“This is a great treasure to use in crafting a rune armament. During the spirit accumulation process, it can be used to bolster the success rate by roughly thirty percent!”

Lin Xun clicked his tongue in amazement.

He knew about wood charm spirits because he had seen one in the bestiary Mister Lu had shown him when he was younger.

There were four main types of spirit entities: earth spirits, charm spirits, sprites, and fairies. There were several subcategories in each branch.

The wood charm spirit belonged to the charm spirit category.

These spirit entities were excellent and invaluable materials for crafting rune armaments. However, they were also very difficult to catch.

This was because they were intelligent and cunning. They would avoid the strong, bully the weak, and immediately flee the moment they sensed danger.

If Lin Xun had not acted as if he had been charmed, it would have been impossible to catch the wood charm spirit.

He had no other option; these spirit entities were too quick, could easily hide in the forest, and were near impossible to track.

The wood charm spirit was also quite unlucky to have assumed Lin Xun was easy pickings due to his age and Spirit Sea cultivation.

It never expected that Lin Xun had already seen through everything and was unafraid of its charm spirit howl attack due to his strong spirit power and the Little Divine Meditation Art.

Even someone with a higher cultivation would have likely fallen to the wood charm spirit’s ruse and end up with their spirits devoured.

“A green-spotted leopard\'s monster core and a sealed wood charm spirit crystal. What an unexpected haul given it’s been less than four hours since I arrived in the Ancient Spirit World…”

Just as he was about to keep the crystal, the sound of rushing wind sounded far away.

A cultivator’s aura!

With his powerful spirit sense, Lin Xun instantly detected cultivators approaching from afar.

There are others here as well?

Lin Xun’s heart trembled in joy. This was great. He could learn about the Ancient Spirit World through them.

While Lin Xun was weighing his options, three figures appeared from the forest.

They were led by a young man wearing a yellow crown and dressed in a feather coat. He also wielded a golden spear and gave off an aura unique to the Spirit Sea stage.

He’s no ordinary person!

Lin Xun instantly sensed a frightening power hidden in the young man’s body. His powerful presence rivaled even the likes of the Marquis of Rising Sky.

The young man was followed by a girl wearing a purple dress and a gallant middle-aged man with sharp, eagle-like eyes.

They were clearly taken aback when they saw Lin Xun.

Upon seeing the object in Lin Xun’s hand, the girl could not help but excitedly blurt out, “Senior Brother Wei Jun, isn’t that a wood charm spirit crystal in his hand?”

The young man called Wei Jun acknowledged it as he quickly looked Lin Xun up and down. “Friend, I don’t care who you are. We discovered the wood charm spirit first so kindly hand it over.”

There was a compelling tone in his voice.

The joy in Lin Xun’s heart instantly disappeared as he smiled and said, “It belongs to you because you discovered it? If I say I fancy the young lady beside you, are you going to hand her over?”

“Impudent!”

The girl in a purple dress angrily shouted, “Do you know who we are?”

Lin Xun could not help but roll his eyes. “Do you guys know who I am?”

“You…”

The girl ground her teeth.

Wei Jun waved his hand and said, “Junior Sister Ren, allow me to handle this.”

Wei Jun indifferently gazed at Lin Xun and said, “Friend, I understand your unhappiness. How about this, I won’t make things difficult for you. Leave the crystal behind and we shall leave this matter be. Take it as a chance to make some friends. What do you think?”

Although there was no coercion, his tone was commanding and arrogant as if it was Lin Xun’s honor for him to have to say this.

“Sorry, I don’t plan on making friends with you people. If there’s nothing else, I shall take my leave.”

Lin Xun smiled dazzlingly, waved goodbye, and turned around to leave.

“Think you can leave without leaving the crystal behind? In your dreams!”

The girl in purple was enraged by Lin Xun’s rudeness. With a wave of her hand, red light rose like a cloud of fire and loomed over him.

The terrifying power instantly incinerated the nearby flora to ashes and even the air seemed to burn. It was horrifying.

Attacking to kill without warning!

This was true arrogance.

Lin Xun immediately stopped as his deep black eyes gleamed icily.
