Dragon's Origin

Huff! Only after watching Master Qian's head turn into a ball of flames from a hundred meters away did Wang Sheng finally breathe a sigh of relief, his entire body relaxing from its tense state.

“If the instructors back on Earth knew that I used five shots within a hundred meters to kill a severely injured and crippled enemy, I don't know how they would scold me!” Wang Sheng said self-deprecatingly, panting as he put away the sniper rifle.

Despite being extremely exhausted, Wang Sheng didn't dare sit down. He was afraid that if he sat down, he wouldn't have the energy to stand up again, especially with Lin Ling on his back. Such a simple act of sitting wasn't so easy to accomplish.

Quickly swallowing three healing pills, Wang Sheng leaned against the crooked tree trunk, quietly waiting for the medicinal effects to circulate. Waves of medicinal energy surged into his body, and finally, after half an hour, Wang Sheng felt his spiritual energy flowing. The previous desperate fight had completely depleted the spiritual energy in Wang Sheng's body.

Now that there were no enemies and no immediate dangers, Wang Sheng forcibly rested for a full cycle, feeling much better. At least the burning pain in his internal organs was gone. The nourishing effect of the spiritual energy from the full cycle made Wang Sheng feel much more comfortable.

After two Seven-Character Incantations, Wang Sheng finally suppressed the injuries in his body. After using the Seven-Character Incantation on Lin Ling as well, Wang Sheng struggled to bandage himself, trying to ensure that the wounds wouldn't affect his movements as much as possible. Only after doing all this did Wang Sheng slowly move towards Master Qian's corpse.

Master Qian's head was completely charred, but undeniably, Master Qian's cultivation was truly powerful. Two armor-piercing incendiary rounds, which would have been enough to penetrate a car engine on Earth, didn't even pierce Master Qian's head. However, Master Qian didn't have a chance to play dead. Wang Sheng had never seen a master who could survive after having his head burned to a crisp.

Of the fifty-plus experts from the Glazed Pavilion who came out this time, except for the one chasing Ah Qi, the rest were completely annihilated. Wang Sheng was certain of this because all those who died were personally killed by Wang Sheng; not a single one survived.

Unfortunately, there wasn't enough time, and Wang Sheng didn't have the mood or energy to return along the way to collect the bodies. The spoils from those people were definitely out of reach. But Wang Sheng wouldn't let go of the things on Master Qian's body. As the Glazed Pavilion Master, he definitely had better items than others.

It took Wang Sheng five minutes to scavenge all the storage rings that Master Qian carried, and then he carried Lin Ling away immediately.

The previous battle involved many explosions, creating too much commotion, which might have attracted experts from various families. Staying here was not a good idea. If a Ninth Realm expert casually came along, Wang Sheng would have to surrender. Wang Sheng didn't want to give them such an opportunity.

In addition, Wang Sheng still wanted to go back and check on Ah Qi's situation. That stubborn woman was willing to die with him, which completely changed Wang Sheng's image of her. He wouldn't say anything else, but at least she could barely be considered one of his own.

The road back was very difficult for Wang Sheng. He now even hated himself for running so far during the guerrilla warfare with these experts, to the point that it would take him several hours to return.

Fortunately, after the spiritual energy began to flow, the spiritual energy in his body increased, and Wang Sheng felt better and better. He used the Seven-Character Incantation on himself and Lin Ling in turns. After two hours, Wang Sheng at least didn't have to worry about the effects of the wounds on his legs and abdomen.

Although he was still limping a bit, the wounds had begun to itch. Wang Sheng knew that this was a sign that the Seven-Character Incantation was stimulating his wounds to recover. New flesh could grow in a few hours, which others could never imagine. Unfortunately, Wang Sheng's current injuries were the lightest in terms of skin and flesh wounds. The real problems were the severe injuries to his internal organs and the fractures.

There was nothing he could do. He was facing fifty opponents, and they knew his strengths and weaknesses, controlling their strength at the peak of the Ninth Realm to fight him head-on. Even if Wang Sheng had three heads and six arms, it was impossible for him to be unscathed.

He couldn't blame Wang Sheng for telling everyone the secret of advancing to the Legendary Realm before launching the plan. On the one hand, the experts from the Eight Great Families, even in the Ninth Realm, were extremely powerful fighters. It was better to let them enter a realm they had never known and explore it on their own. On the other hand, Wang Sheng needed a group of Legendary Realm experts to fight those super demon beasts and break the formation on the Glacier Lake. Relying on Wang Sheng alone, plus Old Daoist Ling Xu, how long would they have to fight?

In addition, Wang Sheng had to keep that group of strongest experts away from the periphery of Lin Ling's sealing formation. Otherwise, who knew what those guys would do? Even if Song Yan was present, she might not be able to control the situation.

Furthermore, if Wang Sheng had revealed the matter of advancing to the Legendary Realm without everyone's knowledge at that time, whether he could safely break the seal would be another matter.

But this did increase the strength of the enemies. For example, now, when Wang Sheng encountered the experts from the Glazed Pavilion, he could only fight until he was exhausted and almost died on the spot. It was only because Wang Sheng was lucky, had rich combat experience, and was facing a group of Glazed Pavilion experts who were not combat personnel most of the time that he managed to win so narrowly. If it had been the professional combat experts from the Eight Great Families, the outcome would have been different.

The unexpected encounter with the Glazed Pavilion caught Wang Sheng off guard, but now he could only accept reality. He walked while healing, and after more than two hours, Wang Sheng finally carried Lin Ling to the place where he had separated from Ah Qi.

As expected, Ah Qi's figure was not here. Wang Sheng knew that although that woman was stubborn, she was also smart enough. In that situation, she would definitely escape. Even if she only led one expert away, she would have relieved some of the pressure on Wang Sheng and reduced his enemies.

Relying on his memory, Wang Sheng found Ah Qi's position at that time, and then began to observe the traces there. After a few minutes, Wang Sheng began to follow a route with not very clear traces, and tracked all the way down.

Wang Sheng observed the traces along the way very clearly and judged them very accurately. One was left by the experienced Ah Qi, and there were almost no traces, only occasionally showing a little bit. The other was very rough, simply a guiding light for Wang Sheng to find someone, and it was obvious that it was left by the Glazed Pavilion expert who was not familiar with life in the Thousand Absolutes Land and was chasing Ah Qi.

Tracking all the way, going out more than twenty miles, costing Wang Sheng two hours of time, Wang Sheng saw a stranger's body lying in a pool of blood.

Not far from the body of this stranger, Wang Sheng saw Ah Qi. She was sitting on the ground, leaning against the tree trunk, her eyes already beginning to lose their luster.
