Chapter 166 Undercurrent
The main bounty list is not made public, and the only people who can take on the bounty are their own people.
Among those who can see the information on the main list, the lowest level of cultivation is at the Jindan stage, which is not comparable to those fake and shoddy so-called "bounty hunters" on Earth.
……
In just two or three days, the atmosphere in the entire Earth Federation suddenly became depressing.
All the cultivators felt that something big might have happened up there, and even the most ordinary cultivator in the Qi training stage felt that something was wrong.
Because I don't know which media reported it.
The owner of the Haidu branch of the Chiyan Cultivation Hall was originally elusive, but he suddenly reappeared in the past few days and frequently went shopping and played chess with an old man in the Qi training stage, and they almost never left his side.
There is also a secret place in Haidu, which has been very lively recently.
The reason for the excitement was that, originally, that was a secret realm that all geniuses in the Qi training stage could enter to train, but the Chiyan Cultivation Hall suddenly banned others from entering, and even other geniuses inside the Chiyan Cultivation Hall were stopped.
The third major event was that Changlin City, a remote city that was originally ordinary and even unknown, was suddenly upgraded to a municipality and was heavily protected.
With a series of federal policies being issued, countless businessmen who had smelled business opportunities began to purchase land and establish businesses in Changlin City.
These three things made direct headlines and remained at the top.
Some people with a keen sense of smell have discovered that these three headlines are all related to Liang Xiao, who has been making headlines on the Internet recently.
On this day, many unfamiliar young geniuses suddenly appeared out of nowhere and challenged others everywhere.
After these young geniuses challenged others and won, they all clamored to challenge Liang Xiao and asked Liang Xiao to come out and fight.
The result was that the federal army directly surrounded and suppressed these young people.
This leaves countless people feeling baffled.
Because those young geniuses are very powerful, they are at least in the Jindan stage, and some have even reached the Yuanying stage.
But even if the federal army is equipped with super-technological weapons, it can only kill those in the Jindan stage without using its trump cards.
There is nothing we can do about those young geniuses, because they all have powerful trump cards.
But what is strange is that the Federation has never sent out real strong men to encircle and suppress those young geniuses who are challenging everywhere. It seems that it is just showing an attitude.
Therefore, after several days of encirclement and suppression, the federal army not only caused some trouble to those young geniuses, but also failed to kill a single person.
Many major forces have sensed something unusual and have begun to become cautious in their words and actions.
Only the Daluo Academy and the Chiyan Cultivation Hall, two of the world's top forces, continue to do their own thing, and even seem to be deliberately high-profile, attracting some people's attention.
But no matter how deliberately high-profile they were, all the major forces with a keen sense of smell could see that the two top forces were actually very restrained. They only sent their own geniuses to fight against those unfamiliar geniuses, but also never sent out real strong men.
The two top forces seem to be stalling for time.
For a time, the world was undercurrent surging. While it was extremely lively, it also gave people a strange sense of quietness and depression.
Like a storm is coming.
……
"Rumble--"
Above the Atlantic Ocean, after a devastating explosion, a woman flew out from the bottom of the sea.
The aura belonging to the early stage of Nascent Soul was released, causing the deep-sea beasts in the entire sea area to dive down one after another, not daring to make any provocative moves.
The woman was wearing a long green dress and holding a giant three-meter-long sickle. She glanced at the distant sea with cold eyes.
She is Yun Ling, a former student of the Keluo branch, who has now entered the main campus of the Daluo Academy. This time she came out to carry out a mission to strangle the genius of the cultivation world who had sneaked into the earth.
"These people all thought I was my junior Liang Xiao. Sure enough, the dream I had was not a real dream. My junior Liang Xiao had indeed controlled my body and used this sickle move."
Yun Ling was thinking about this in his mind, and suddenly swung a sickle forward.
"Wow—"
The sea seemed to be cut in half. Tens of thousands of meters away, at a depth of thousands of meters on the seabed, a giant deep-sea beast was chopped to pieces. The next moment, a figure flew into the sky.
"Liang Xiao, you finally stopped hiding?" The man sneered, with thirty-six sword beams surrounding him, shooting towards Yun Ling as fast as lightning.
"Yeah, I won't hide anymore!"
Yun Ling went forward without fear.
"Boom boom boom..."
The war broke out instantly. Both of them were in the early Nascent Soul stage, but the power they unleashed was infinitely close to the peak of the Nascent Soul stage.
For a moment, there were huge waves and the sea water overturned.
The battle lasted for more than an hour.
When everything calmed down, Yun Ling carried a corpse and flew towards the west without slowing down.
Although she killed an unparalleled genius, she couldn't feel happy at all.
Because this is the seventh genius she has met during this period, and each of these geniuses is not much weaker than her.
If it weren't for her strong physique and her own mutated true energy, she would have died many times over.
"What did Junior Brother Liang Xiao do to me in the first place? Why do I feel that I am becoming more and more proficient in this sickle technique? If I were not conscious, I would have suspected that I was possessed by someone else..."
While hurrying on the road, Yun Ling was sensing her own situation with uncertainty.
She always felt that her body was changing in a certain direction. Not only her body, but even her soul consciousness was undergoing some changes.
This change includes the impression of Liang Xiao.
Because as the changes became more profound, Liang Xiao's image would spontaneously appear in her mind.
Whenever she visualized Liang Xiao's image, her cultivation speed increased dramatically, and even her combat effectiveness suddenly soared. She became more and more proficient in the sickle techniques that she had seen in her dreams, as if it was some kind of inheritance rooted deep in her soul.
To the point that she simply spent a huge amount of money to customize a sickle-shaped weapon.
Out of trust in Liang Xiao, she did not resist this change.
Because the general school attached great importance to Liang Xiao during this period, even the entire federation suddenly attached great importance to Liang Xiao.
She felt that she could completely trust Liang Xiao and completely allow this strange change to occur.
Of course, there is another reason, which is that she can hardly resist the temptation of rapid improvement in strength.
Even if Liang Xiao really did something to him, as long as he was still free, there would be no problem.
"Anyway..."
Yun Ling felt that, given the level of importance that Daluo Academy and the entire Federation attached to Liang Xiao, if Liang Xiao really had a problem, it would be better to just give up and destroy him directly.
"Is this the price I paid for cheating him out of so much spiritual water?"
However, such a price is not unaffordable, and it is probably what countless people dream of.
Yun Ling shook her head, suppressed these thoughts, and continued to move at a steady pace, transforming into a stream of light and shooting towards the coastline ahead.
There, the eighth enemy was waiting for her.
Because of her incredibly powerful sickle technique, all those people mistook her for Liang Xiao, so she will continue to play the role for a while.
She was very curious. What would those people think if they knew the truth?
"Ok?"
Suddenly she seemed to sense something, and when she looked up, she found that two suns appeared in the sky again.
"It's the same day again..."
Yun Ling was confused and uncertain: "It seems that the attitude of the Federation has changed since the double sun fell on the same day, and judging from the attitude of the Federation towards Junior Brother Liang Xiao..."
She suddenly wondered whether this horrifying phenomenon of two suns in the same sky had anything to do with Liang Xiao?
