Chapter 2074 - 2075: Seeking Credit and Rewards

In their eyes, Ling Zhenfei was already dead. Originally already injured, Ling Zhenfei was bleeding from his mouth and nose, lying motionless, seemingly dead.

A large part of them had not intended to kill Ling Zhenfei, merely planning to capture him for glory and reward.

However, some people outright killed him, rendering the chance for glory useless, so those people left.

Others who shouted to have him killed saw no issue when he was actually dead. Hearing that the restriction ahead had been lifted, they left as well.

A crowd surrounded and dispersed, leaving Ling Zhenfei injured all over at the scene.

A Ling Zhenfei deemed already dead.

Ling Zhenfei even felt he might die, so when the first person rushed in to attack him, he put a divine pill into his mouth.

This divine pill was the Second Life, a legendary pill said to grant a second life.

Once everyone had gone, lying on the ground, Ling Zhenfei felt a surge of warmth within his body.

This warmth flowed from his internal organs, spreading throughout his body, entering his mind.

His consciousness had already dispersed, but under the effects of the Second Life Elixir Pill, he suddenly opened his eyes.

Ling Zhenfei marveled at the world, delighted those people hadn't used weapons, thinking if his body had been severed, the elixir may not have been sufficient.

Ling Zhenfei felt his strength; under the divine pill's effect, he certainly still had some energy.

Thinking this, Ling Zhenfei knew he couldn't linger, he exerted the miraculous power of the Second Life Elixir Pill, crawling forward with all his might.

Their position was initially very isolated, and after crawling for a while, he crawled outside the canyon. Outside the South Gate lay countless corpses, as of now no one had cleaned up; Ling Zhenfei lying among them caused no dissonance at all.

Feeling tired, Ling Zhenfei lay down to rest amid the corpses, surrounded by both human cultivator corpses and foreign tribe cultivator corpses.

Ling Zhenfei found the situation truly laughable; how laughable it was — humans and foreign races fighting each other, ultimately perishing, him nearly dying among them.

Doesn't this precisely show humanity and foreign races both suffer losses?

Suddenly vibrations came from afar, only Ling Zhenfei lying on the ground could sense such tremors.

Ling Zhenfei paused, realizing the vibrations meant many people must have arrived.

Ling Zhenfei was astonished; now most cultivators were in the canyon, surely those approaching were foreign tribe cultivators.

Thinking this, Ling Zhenfei hurriedly crawled a bit to the side, reaching the outermost area, a place not easily discovered.

Ling Zhenfei concealed himself among the corpses, making him even less conspicuous.

Looking into the distance, Ling Zhenfei indeed saw a large group of foreign races returning.

Logically, humans had just broken open the canyon's three gates; those defending had suffered great losses.

Yet judging by the incoming foreign races' steady steps and orderly formation, they're clearly not simple folk.

Ling Zhenfei now understood the differences between foreign races and human cultivation.

Foreign tribe cultivators often focused on the Zhiyi, Dawen, and Heart Chasing realms.

Even in the Dawen Realm, they rarely store spiritual energy within themselves, unlike human cultivators who use it as potent attack force.

Foreign tribe cultivators refine their bodies with spiritual energy, either making them robust or enhancing particular skills.

This distinguishes the two types of cultivators.

It's precisely due to this that whenever the Foreign Land Space gate opens, only humans venture into it; foreign races seldom enter human lands.

Foreign races gathering resemble a formidable army; they never stand a chance singlehandedly against human cultivators.

The appearance of these foreign race armies shocked Ling Zhenfei, this army was truly well-trained. As they approached, Ling Zhenfei was even more surprised; these people looked almost human.

Why almost? From height to limbs, they were indistinguishable from humans.

The only difference lies in their faces, mostly almond-shaped with large eyes, fair skin so refined, yet their ears stood out.

Their ears were pointed.

Suddenly Ling Zhenfei understood; these were the elf tribe.

Ling Zhenfei had seen records of elves.

These elves carried bows and arrows, wore armor, and had daggers sheathed at their waists.

The army was divided into two kinds, archers, and those holding round shields and short swords.

In front of them were several people riding mounts leading the way.

These mounts were peculiar; none were horses but things Ling Zhenfei had never seen before.

Among them was an aged elf in the center, wearing a beautifully styled helmet, but his strength seemed deteriorated.

To the left was a female elf, beautifully attractive, by modern standards, certainly a beauty among beauties.

Tall and slender, long legs, exquisite curves highlighted by her tight armor, a devilish figure without exaggeration.

Standard almond-shaped face, small mouth, golden hair, large eyes, fair skin, only ears different from humans, yet her pointed elf ears looked even more appealing.

Ling Zhenfei was astounded, initially believing foreign races were beastly, no idea such beautiful elves existed.

Perhaps the elf tribe shared similarities, even male elves looked appealing, their figures remarkable, bound to enchant cultivators.

By now they were very close, the elderly elf gestured ahead, saying, "Everyone, slowly approach, make no sound."

Shield bearers led, archers followed, slowly entering.

Now all cultivators were within the canyon, none alert to the elves' arrival.

Ling Zhenfei had already crawled away, the elf soldiers passed closely by him.

Soon, the three mounted elves slowly passed them as well.

The front stopped, so did the mounts too, not far from Ling Zhenfei.

Ling Zhenfei was terrified, not expecting them so near.

Being close, he saw just how beautiful the female elf was; her figure was intensely attractive because she was foreign, truly impactful.
