Watching Zhao Jiudou fly away, Lin Bailin felt a bit hesitant. From Zhao Jiudou's appearance, the credibility of this information seed low. Most likely, he held a grudge against Lin Bailin and used false news to mock and embarrass him, trying to make him look bad.
Lin Bailin wanted to ignore it, but the matter of the sand monster's lair was of great importance. Even if the information was unreliable, it couldn't be easily dismissed. The Cultivation World's general attitude towards such matters was to consider them true unless proven false, rather than the other way around.
If he were to inform others about it now, they would probably be wasting their ti coming here. Falsely reporting military information might be a small matter, but it could cause unnecessary delays for everyone. Moreover, if he disturbed others' search for the sand monster's lair, it would be detrintal to the overall situation.
After giving it so thought, Lin Bailin decided to investigate the matter himself first. If he truly found the sand monster's lair, then he would inform others.
Taking action on his decision, Lin Bailin imdiately used the Earth Escape Spell to burrow into the ground from his current location. Just as his body had vanished into the earth, Zhao Jiudou's body descended from the sky.
Zhao Jiudou hadn't actually flown far away; he rely pretended to leave but had been secretly observing the situation from the shadows. As soon as he saw Lin Bailin burrowing underground, he quickly returned to his original position.
A sinister expression appeared on Zhao Jiudou's face, and he stomped heavily on the ground, causing a powerful shockwave to travel directly towards the depths.
anwhile, Lin Bailin diligently searched the surroundings as he delved deeper into the underground. Before long, a violent tremor reached him from above.
Lin Bailin was puzzled. Who could be using the earthshaking technique on the surface, and why now?
After the tremors subsided, there were no new disturbances on the surface. Lin Bailin hesitated for a mont but decided to continue his thorough search of the area before returning to the surface.
As he ventured deeper, he soon discovered a clue to the sand monster's lair—a wide underground passage that revealed itself to his senses. Given its depth and construction, it was undoubtedly built by the sand monsters to access their lair.
Lin Bailin wasted no ti and imdiately activated the specially prepared ssaging talisman. The talisman turned into a stream of light, piercing through the layers of soil and stones, flying toward the surface.
Knowing how formidable the sand monsters were, Lin Bailin was cautious and didn't want to venture further alone. He was even reluctant to linger in the area.
Lin Bailin was preparing to return to the surface and gather reinforcents before re-entering the lair. Suddenly, he sensed a strange and sudden attack in his divine consciousness.
His Earth Escape Spell was interrupted, and the thick rocks surrounding him fiercely pressed against his body. Struggling with all his might, he managed to break free and rushed into the nearby passage, finding temporary shelter.
But he was not safe yet. A Second Rank sand monster, proficient in earth-based spells, had ambushed him. It chased after him and joined in the siege.
Lin Bailin now understood the purpose behind Zhao Jiudou's earlier earthshaking technique. It was to alert the sand monsters hidden underground, allowing them to discover Lin Bailin and ambush him in ti.
No need to ntion the expletives he had for Zhao Jiudou. The man was truly despicable, attacking his own comrade over a re verbal dispute.
Lin Bailin had no ti to dwell on his anger towards Zhao Jiudou, as he was now surrounded by enemies, and the situation had beco dire.
Caught in a perilous situation, Lin Bailin faced a double ambush by two Second Ranksand monsters. His first priority was to survive or escape from this danger before seeking revenge against Zhao Jiudou. On the ground, Zhao Jiudou remained vigilant, carefully monitoring the surroundings.
Seeing a communication flying talisman about to take flight from underground to the skies, Zhao Jiudou swiftly drew his sword. A flash of sword light shattered the talisman into pieces. Employing the Earth Escape Spell, Zhao Jiudou disappeared from the surface and concealed himself underground.
After Zhao Jiudou vanished, ng Zhang and Deep EarthSpirit General arrived at the scene. They had been observing the entire incident from the shadows. They witnessed Zhao Jiudou's actions, which were all noted by them. To continue scheming against Zhao Jiudou from the shadows, ng Zhang chose not to warn his old friend, Lin Bailin. Despite this, he silently wished for Lin Bailin's safety and hoped he could survive this ordeal.
As a young Foundation Building disciple of Forest Spring Watch, Lin Bailin had a promising future and garnered respect from the senior mbers of his sect. Surely, he possessed so life-saving ans, even if he might not be a match for the sand monsters. ng Zhang believed Lin Bailin should be able to avoid fatal danger.
Having seen through the true nature of Forest Spring Watch, ng Zhang felt at ease. Staying hidden and following Zhao Jiudou promised greater benefits and aligned with their own interests. Both ng Zhang and Deep EarthSpirit General also used the Earth Escape Spell to go underground. With Deep EarthSpirit General's exceptional talent in using the spell, they were not worried about losing track of Zhao Jiudou, even if they were so distance apart.
Though the sand monster dens varied significantly, there were commonalities among them. Zhao Jiudou, being a disciple of the Flying Swan Sect, possessed knowledge that many other cultivators did not. He had a deep understanding of the sand monster dens.
Skillfully avoiding the areas where the sand monsters gathered and eluding their guards' attention, Zhao Jiudou made his way directly to the core of the sand monster den. anwhile, Lin Bailin found himself struggling to deal with the two Second Ranksand monsters. Entering the den further alerted the guarding sand monsters, and a large number of them rushed into the passage, attempting to overwhelm him completely.
Exhausted, Lin Bailin used all his trump cards and desperately tried to break free from the encirclent. He knew that staying here would an certain death at the hands of the sand monsters. With a series of dark thunder explosions, he managed to create an opening amidst the sand monsters ahead.
Making a final desperate charge, Lin Bailin found the two Second Ranksand monsters persistently chasing after him, like festering sores he couldn't shake off. Additionally, another Second Ranksand monster with a large group of First Ranksand monsters was crazily heading their way.
To escape this dire situation, Lin Bailin took out a Thunderbolt Seed bestowed upon him by Guang ZhiDaoist Master, preparing to make his last stand. If he couldn't break through their ranks, he would be completely helpless.
