Lin Shen smiled. “It’s over.”

...

In other words, he admitted it.

“Who was the assassin?”

“I’m not sure.”

“The Martial Enforcement Hall didn’t catch the assassin?”

“I heard they’re still investigating!”

“In that case, we haven’t found the person yet.” Yang Zhongyi frowned. “Lin, why don’t you stay in the academy for the time being?”

Those who dared to assassinate Lin Shen were definitely Bright Aperture Stage cultivators.

The thought of being targeted by a Bright Aperture Stage assassin sent a chill down one’s spine!

“Don’t worry. I know what I’m doing.”

Seeing that Yang Zhongyi and Su Nian were about to say something else, Lin Shen cut them off.

What a joke. Others might not know, but how could he not know? The so-called “assassin” had long been beheaded. It was impossible for him to assassinate Lin Shen again.

“Have you all heard about Master Leng?” Lin Shen changed the topic.

As expected, Yang Zhongyi and Su Nian were immediately distracted.

“I heard a little.” Su Nian sighed. “I didn’t expect Master Leng to secretly refine Blood Spirit Pills. What a surprise.”

Among the three people present, Su Nian was undoubtedly the one who could understand the situation of Leng Guangting the most.

There were many similarities between the Su family and the Leng family.

A hundred years ago, they were both among the eighteen influential families.

A hundred years later, they had both fallen into the ranks of the declining old families.

However, unlike the Leng family, the Su family had long given up on returning to the eighteen influential families because of an incident a few years ago, so they didn’t have a deep obsession like Leng Guangting, which led them astray.

Yang Zhongyi also sighed.

After the news of Leng Guangting spread, it caused a stir in the academy.

No one expected that this tutor, who usually kept a low profile, would actually do so many evil things in secret.

The day after the disciple rank challenge.

Lin Shen arrived at the Merit Hall.

Behind the counter in the Mission Hall, Jiao Yu was on duty. When she saw Lin Shen, a bright smile immediately bloomed on her face.

“Senior Brother Lin, are you here to accept missions?”

Lin Shen smiled at the girl and nodded. Then, he slowly patrolled the shelves.

With a glance, he was surprised to find that there were fewer missions related to the Dragon Abyss Mountain Range. It seemed that there were less than half of what it was before.

Out of curiosity, Lin Shen came to the counter and asked Jiao Yu.

Jiao Yu explained,

“That is the aftereffect of the war between Dragonside City and the three demonic tribes.

“In that war, almost 70 to 80% of the spiritual beasts in the periphery of the Dragon Abyss Mountain Range were killed. They still haven’t recovered, so most of the related missions are gone.

“However, Senior Brother Lin, don’t worry. It should gradually recover in about six months.”

Jiao Yu said with certainty.

There were a huge number of spiritual beasts, and low-level spiritual beasts were as hard to kill as weeds.

Usually, after killing a bunch of them, a new batch would appear before long.

Due to the unique geographical environment, the spiritual essence in the Dragon Abyss Mountain Range was richer than in other places, which was very beneficial to the growth of spiritual beasts.

Therefore, every year, countless spiritual beasts migrated to the Dragon Abyss Mountain Range and fought with other spiritual beasts for territory.

Every year, more spiritual beasts die in territorial battles than at the hands of human cultivators.

Therefore, although there were only a few spiritual beasts in the periphery of the Dragon Abyss Mountain Range now, it wouldn’t be long before they returned to the situation where there were too many beasts.

After hearing Jiao Yu’s words, Lin Shen finally understood. Then, he fell into deep thought.

If all the spiritual beasts in the Dragon Abyss Mountain Range were killed, he wouldn’t be able to trigger Testify by Killing. Where should he go now?

Seeing Lin Shen’s distress, Jiao Yu thought for a moment and said,

“Senior Brother Lin, if you don’t know what mission to accept, I have a suggestion.”

Lin Shen looked up in surprise and asked curiously, “What suggestion?”

Jiao Yu took out a piece of parchment and handed it to Lin Shen.

“Senior Brother Lin, you can take a look at this.”

Lin Shen took it, and his eyes gradually lit up.

On the parchment was a quest.

According to the description, there was a creature called the Iron Bone Fish in a lake to the west of Dragonside City.

This creature was shaped like a carp, and its bones were black. It was very suitable for forging into a weapon.

A small amount of black iron bones could increase the success rate of forging enchanted armaments by 20%. Its value was apparent.

The mission was to collect this black iron bone. The reward was two medium merits for every half a kilo.

Lin Shen didn’t really care about merits.

This Iron Bone Fish wasn’t considered a spiritual beast and was almost not threatening.

The meat of the Iron Bone Fish was delicious. Moreover, eating it could increase the physical strength of the spiritual beasts, so it was extremely popular among them.

As long as there were Iron Bone Fish in the lake, there would definitely be one or more demon tribes around.

This parchment made many lakes with Iron Bone Fish.

In other words, as long as Lin Shen went near these lakes, he would definitely encounter a large number of demons.

Lin Shen immediately smiled and nodded at Jiao Yu. “Thank you for your suggestion, Junior Sister. This mission suits me very well!”

“I’m glad to help!” Jiao Yu smiled and helped Lin Shen register.

While Jiao Yu was registering, Lin Shen feigned a casual tone, “By the way, I heard from someone a few days ago that there seems to be a more powerful Dharma treasure above the Nine Yang Talisman Sword. Have you heard of it, Junior Sister?”

Jiao Yu didn’t suspect anything and casually replied, “Senior Brother, you’re talking about the Pure Yang Talisman sword, right?”

Lin Shen’s heart skipped a beat as she pretended to be puzzled. “Pure Yang Talisman Sword?”

“The Pure Yang Talisman Sword is also an enchanted armament, but its quality is far above the Nine Yang Talisman Sword. It’s said that it’s only slightly inferior to profound armaments. It’s roughly equivalent to the difference between an enchanted armament and a talisman weapon.”

The quality was above that of a superior-grade enchanted armament, but it hadn’t reached the level of a profound armament. What was that?

A supreme-grade enchanted armament?

Lin Shen muttered to himself, but his expression remained unchanged as he continued to ask,

“Why haven’t I seen a pure Yang talisman sword in the Merit Hall?”

“That’s because the Merit Hall can only exchange for superior-grade enchanted armaments and below. Therefore, pure Yang Talisman Swords are not included in the exchange.”

Seeing that Lin Shen seemed to be very interested, Jiao Yu said a few more words.

“However, I heard that in the past, there were upper house disciples who spent a large number of merit points to exchange for multiple Nine Yang Talisman Swords. Then, they obtained the refinement method from the tutor. They refined and fused the Nine Yang Talisman Swords step by step. After wiping away the impurities, the sword returned to the Pure Yang stage and finally became the Pure Yang Talisman Sword!

“With that pure Yang talisman sword, that upper house disciple is said to have become the leader of the ten upper house disciples!”

Lin Shen no longer cared about the last sentence.

He already knew in his heart that the sword in the storage ring was likely a pure Yang talisman sword.

As a tutor, it wasn’t difficult for Leng Guangting to refine such a Pure Yang sword.

At the thought that it was a powerful enchanted armament second only to profound armaments, Lin Shen was pleasantly surprised.

The Ink Peak inkstone and the Pure Yang Talisman Sword were two treasures that complemented each other.. It greatly increased his combat strength!
