Exotic Battlefield: I Can Activate Dual Talents

Chapter 439 - 355: Shark, Corpse, and Dragon—The Longyuan Xiang Family

Why does this Star Soldier have so much Innate Qi?

Lu Lin scrutinized up and down, this Star Soldier is from the Gold Bull Clan. From a bloodline perspective, it’s quite close to the demon beast Copper-skinned Iron-boned Ox. Could this be the reason?

Lu Lin secretly noted this race, thinking of killing one from the Gold Bull Clan if he encounters them again, just to naturally find out.

Aside from this one Gold Bull Clan’s Star Soldier, there was another Demon Race’s Star Soldier that surprised Lu Lin.

Contrary to the Star Soldier from the Gold Bull Clan, this person didn’t have any Innate Qi at all.

However, Lu Lin appeared quite handsome and looked very young, having lived for no more than 30 years.

No matter how fiercely the Innate Qi dissipates, it’s impossible to have none at all.

The key is, this Star Soldier’s race is not far off from the Gold Bull Clan - the Copper Bull Clan. In terms of blood relation, they might be even closer to the Copper-skinned Iron-boned Ox.

But the ninth level Star Soldiers of the two races that rely on the Copper-skinned Iron-boned Ox bloodline showed such a huge difference in Innate Qi, causing Lu Lin to frown deeply.

With a thought, Lu Lin closed his eyes and entered the Star Power Domain.

His eyeball’s Star Power Domain could not only record Star Skills, but if a soul died within it, all of its life’s memories would be stored there.

Lu Lin thought, instead of slowly investigating on his own, it would be better to first review the memories of these two people and see if there are any discoveries.

However, after Lu Lin reviewed all these memories within the eyeball, he made a shocking discovery.

He had slain two Star Generals and ninety-two Star Soldiers, so logically, there should be ninety-four new recorded memories.

But he only found ninety-two copies.

Upon careful examination, it was the memories of the two Star Soldiers from the Gold Bull and Copper Bull Clans that hadn’t been stored.

Or rather, they hadn’t been drawn into the Star Power Domain at all.

Strange.

Indeed, strange.

Lu Lin opened his eyes, waved his hand to collect the processed corpses into his Storage Ring, and fell into contemplation.

What kind of person could be unable to be drawn into the Star Power Domain by Lu Lin?

He even recalled the process of the battle just now, yet found no unusual occurrences the whole time.

Then, where did the soul bodies of those two Gold Bull and Copper Bull Clan corpses go?

...

"Damn it!"

"Bloody bad luck!"

In a mountain over a hundred kilometers away from Between Beast and Mortal, a figure enveloped in dense black mist spit and cursed.

"What kind of world is this, that black shark devoured so many companions."

"Grew massively in power. All I want is to slowly recover and return to the Longyuan World. Why, during a rare outing, am I dragged into dealing with someone like Lu Lin?"

"I even lost my body because of this."

"What’s the big deal?"

Next to him, another figure made entirely of mist spoke, but his mist was not black but a fiery red.

"I haven’t even shouted yet, and here you are already screaming."

"Poor me, thirty years of bodily adjustments, all for nothing now."

"Red Dragon, stop wailing. That Gold Bull Clan body you scammed wasn’t without my help, so if it’s lost, it’s lost."

"What’s important is my Lifeless Body; the loss is immense this time."

The two human-shaped mists speaking were the God of Evil Corpse and the Red Dragon God.

These two were subordinates who followed the Saint to Tianyuan Continent years ago.

A century ago, the God of Evil Corpse first Awakened, and after understanding the situation of Tianyuan Continent, he decisively chose... to develop quietly and not to participate in the so-called Alliance of the Gods formed by Black Shark, Hei Si, Hei Ming, and the others.

Because he had once taken a glance at the edge of the Endless Sea, he saw that in the resurrected Ten Gods led by Black Shark, the other companions were only shells with their soul bodies inside.

It was clear those companions had been devoured by Black Shark, and their bodies were resources distributed to his Star Generals.

The body of E Shi had been smashed and shattered in the Great War of those years, completely wrecked.

After his soul’s revival, he was ready to find a suitable body to occupy and slowly adjust it to become the perfect host for the Evil Corpse.

Lifeless Body.

Lifeless Body, as the name implies, is a constitution with zero life energy.

This constitution is the minimum standard for Evil Corpse to possess.

However, after more than a century of effort, the Lifeless Body was finally achieved, but the God of Evil Corpse hadn’t anticipated that it would be all for naught in the blink of an eye.

His body was taken by Lu Lin, and only his soul could escape using Secret Methods right under Lu Lin’s eyes, leaving him furious.

The Red Dragon, beside him, was a companion who rallied to the God of Evil Corpse just a few years ago.

Upon the revival of his soul body, his first thought was also to find the Saint, hoping the Saint would lead everyone back to the Longyuan World.

But according to some statements of the Alien Race, when he reached the edge of the Endless Sea, he had the same findings as the God of Evil Corpse.

This frightened him greatly; not daring to make a fuss, he made a hastened escape.

Though the Tianyuan Continent is not small, it mainly consists of territories of exotic beasts and the Alien Race.

After much maneuvering, he encountered the God of Evil Corpse, who was hiding under an assumed name in the Copper Bull Clan, and with his help, Red Dragon also obtained a body of a promising Gold Bull Clan Alien Race and began adjusting it, aiming to transform it into a suitable Red Flame Body for himself.

Yet this time, when the God of Evil Corpse said his Lifeless Body was accomplished and they could take advantage of the situation when the Extraordinary Species was capturing Lu Lin, the two could seize the chance to absorb some Soul Power and strengthen themselves.

Who would’ve thought that they would die before achieving anything, capturing only seven or eight living souls, and then being caught by Lu Lin, with their soul bodies damaged, and their bodies adjusted over several years ending up in Lu Lin’s hands.

"Evil Corpse, honestly, I can’t swallow this anger."

"Just Lu Lin alone, even if he advances to the Star Dust Realm, so what? If you hadn’t held me back just now, I would have killed him right then."

"Hehe."

E Shi sneered but said nothing.

Just now, it wasn’t that he had pulled the Red Dragon away; it was clearly this cowardly, self-serving guy, seeing things go wrong, directly abandoning his flesh and escaping, pulling him along at the last moment.

E Shi, despite being reluctant to leave his freshly crafted Lifeless Body, hesitated for a moment but still fled.

Lifespan doesn’t hold much meaning for them. The two of them had already lived for tens of thousands of years on the Longyuan Continent, and if not for the Saint, they wouldn’t have come to this miserable place.

For them, a hundred years passes in the blink of an eye; sometimes a bit of caution can lead to a longer life.

"Birds of a feather flock together."

These two, neither the big brother nor the second brother, are anything but cowards afraid of death.

"What are you laughing at? Instead of wasting time, think about what we should do next."

The Red Dragon said discontentedly.

"It’s simple, that Lu Lin is incredibly powerful, his combat strength is extraordinary, and those in the Star Dust Realm of the Extraordinary Species are simply no match for him."

"In my view, it won’t be long before the Black Shark personally leads the so-called Gods to deal with Lu Lin."

"By then, no matter which side wins, we can benefit from it."

"If Lu Lin proves powerful, we’ll seize the opportunity to steal a couple of bodies."

"If Lu Lin is killed, we’ll go back with the Black Shark. I don’t believe it; we’ve been brothers for so many years, he can kill others, but can he kill us too?"

"Back in the day, the ’Shark, Corpse, Dragon’ swordsmen weren’t renowned for nothing."

"Bullshit Shark, Corpse, Dragon. You forgetful guy, have you forgotten how many good things the Black Shark took from us back then? In battle, this bastard even pushed me to the front, leaving my body shattered, while he’s now enjoying himself."

"I’m telling you, even if I die, I swear I won’t hang around with that Black Shark bastard again."

The Red Dragon spat loudly as he spoke, evidently reminded of past events.

"Oh? Do you still resent the Black Shark?"

"No kidding. I don’t just resent him; I hate him to death. If the Black Shark appeared before me now, I’d be eager to... huh?"

As the Red Dragon spoke, he suddenly sensed something was wrong.

The person who just asked seemed not to be that guy, E Shi.

Turning his head.

When the Red Dragon saw the person standing in front of him with a smiling face, he was instantly scared out of his wits, fleeing without saying a word.

"Damn, damn, damn..."

"How the hell did that Black Shark bastard suddenly appear here."

"I’m finished, I’m finished. Given his vindictive nature, who knows how he’s plotting against me now."

Bang.

While flying, the Red Dragon suddenly hit an invisible barrier, making a dull thud.

What the hell!

Upon sensing carefully, the Red Dragon’s face turned pale, and even the red mist forming his soul body paused for a moment.

That Black Shark bastard not only found them silently but also set up formations targeting soul power.

Back then, this guy was insidious, treacherous, and despicable. Who would’ve thought that he’d remain unchanged after all these years?

Realizing he couldn’t escape, the Red Dragon decided not to waste effort.

He turned around, spat at the Black Shark who stood steadily on the mountain, "Black Shark, what do you want."

"I’m telling you, I, the Red Dragon, stand tall and proud. If you want to kill or torture me, then make it clear. If I even frown, I’ll be your little brother."

Despite his tough words, the Red Dragon had other thoughts in his heart.

Anyway, I don’t have eyebrows now, so what am I afraid of?

"Hehe, Third Brother, all these years have passed, and you haven’t changed one bit, still goofy. In human terms, they’d say you’re adorably dumb."

"Come here, if I really wanted to do something to you, do you think you’d still have a chance to escape?"

"Second Brother, sit down too. Standing there all dark like that, trying to scare me?"

"B-brother, E Shi would not dare."

E Shi respectfully bowed to the Black Shark and sat down as instructed.

For a soul body like him, standing or sitting made little difference.

But since Black Shark spoke, he didn’t dare defy.

"You know, when you two fled to the Endless Sea, did you really think I wouldn’t know?"

"Second Brother, you even spent a hundred years crafting a Lifeless Body, for God’s sake... such a waste of effort."

"I even heard you married a woman, the daughter of the clan leader of the Copper Bull Clan, standing eight feet tall and weighing a thousand pounds. I wonder if you could handle that."

"And Third Brother, even more so..."

Black Shark shook his head, looking at the Red Dragon in the air like a fool, "Third Brother is such a fool. After all these years, you’re still playing this run-away game when you see me, is it fun?"

"Come on, Second Brother, Third Brother, have a seat."

"This time, capturing Lu Lin is a rare opportunity for us both."

"As long as we catch him, we can return to the Star King Realm. By then, a small place like the Tianyuan Continent could be wiped out effortlessly."

"Our real enemies aren’t the trash and weaklings of the Tianyuan Continent. The Xiang Family is our true life-and-death threat."

Red Dragon and E Shi, who were nonchalant just a moment ago, shuddered and grew serious upon hearing the mention of the Xiang Family.
