Chapter 1357: Chapter 552: The Unlucky Kuanglei True Person [Seeking Guaranteed Monthly Tickets, Seeking Subscriptions]

After Zhou Chun employed the "Misdirection" strategy, he didn’t actually leave the Black Mist Marsh.

He was very aware of one thing: if after preparing several countermeasures, Kuanglei True Person could still track him down, then no matter where he tried to flee, he wouldn’t be able to escape.

After all, the escape speed between a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator and a Golden Core Stage Cultivator was far too different. Even with the advantage of being prepared, he couldn’t outrun his pursuer.

However, he wasn’t about to just accept his fate and do nothing.

In fact, although Zhou Chun didn’t leave Black Mist Marsh, he merged with the Golden Armor Turtle Bearer Stone and slipped deep underground beneath one of the large islands within Black Mist Marsh, hiding thousands of feet underground.

At such a deep underground level, even if Kuanglei True Person came chasing, he might not be able to find Zhou Chun’s precise hiding spot. Using the talents of the Golden Armor Turtle Bearer Stone, Zhou Chun still had a chance to maneuver around him.

Of course, if it really came to that, he would be in a dire nine-deaths situation.

But ultimately, the course of events proved that his actions were not wrong.

In fact, this aligns quite well with the laws of the Cultivation World.

As long as one is not greedy and is not blinded by greed, it’s not easy to get hurt or endanger oneself.

The purpose of Zhou Chun coming here for revenge was very clear; it was just to exact revenge and vent his grievances, to clear his mind!

In the past, without the strength, he could only endure in silence, not daring to seek revenge.

Now that he has the strength, and with encountering Wang Jun again in recent years, naturally, there was no need to endure any longer.

As a Cultivator, although one doesn’t always need to act on the urge for revenge, it doesn’t make sense to always be a coward.

One must live, but cannot just live for the sake of living, which is too tiring and meaningless!

Since it was solely for revenge, Zhou Chun naturally wouldn’t risk putting himself in danger for gains that are unnecessary.

Even if he got hold of Wang Jun’s few dharma treasures, he couldn’t exchange them for something useful nor did he have the capability to refine more dharma treasures for use. Why would he risk his life for them!

Furthermore, by not taking these dharma treasures, if Kuanglei True Person did eventually find the Zhou Family, Zhou Chun would still have a reason to ask the Moon Wheel Sect or Tianjing True Person for help in mediation, framing the matter as a grudge between peers.

After all, Wang Jun attacked him first back then, and it stands to reason that he would seek revenge now.

However, if he even took those dharma treasures given to Wang Jun by Kuanglei True Person, it would easily turn the situation into one of him killing for loot.

At that point, whether it be the Moon Wheel Sect or Tianjing True Person, it would be challenging to justify providing shelter for him!

Although the Cultivation World operates under survival of the fittest and the strong prevailing over the weak, it doesn’t mean reason is useless.

The strong won’t reason with the weak, but they will certainly reason with those of equal strength!

Thus, Zhou Chun must leave himself a way out and not live shortsightedly for immediate gains.

After hiding deep underground for a period, Zhou Chun suddenly felt a strong tremor, as if an earthquake had occurred. freeweɓnovel.cøm

Through the Golden Armor Turtle Bearer Stone’s senses, he quickly confirmed that indeed a strong seismic activity was happening a distance away!

This immediately sparked Zhou Chun’s curiosity.

He had a hunch in his heart that this tremor must be related to Kuanglei True Person.

But what left him puzzled was, who was Kuanglei True Person’s opponent?

Was there actually a strong individual in Black Mist Marsh capable of confronting Kuanglei True Person?

All of a sudden, Zhou Chun’s heart was filled with intense curiosity, just like a monkey trying to catch a cat, eager to know the identity of the person battling against Kuanglei True Person.

But reason told him, this was absolutely not the time to go out and watch the commotion, risking exposure to Kuanglei True Person.

Thus, he was forced to suppress his curiosity and quietly wait deep underground for the outcome.

After waiting for a while, until the tremors ceased, Zhou Chun then had the Golden Armor Turtle Bearer Stone go in the direction of the source to investigate.

Previously, the Golden Armor Turtle Bearer Stone didn’t appear during the battle with Wang Jun, so even if Kuanglei True Person discovered it, he wouldn’t associate it with Zhou Chun.

Having waited nearly two hours underground, Zhou Chun finally saw the Golden Armor Turtle Bearer Stone return.

"What? You said you sensed the aura of a Fifth-Order Demon Beast at the source of that tremor!"

In the underground cave, Zhou Chun looked at the returning Golden Armor Turtle Bearer Stone, shocked by what it reported.

A Fifth-Order Demon King existed within Black Mist Marsh!

Thinking about this, Zhou Chun couldn’t help but feel an overwhelming sense of dread.

If he had known this earlier, he certainly wouldn’t have dared to ambush Wang Jun here.

"No, wait, if there really was a Fifth-Order Demon King in Black Mist Marsh, why would it allow so many cultivators to hunt beasts and harvest spiritual medicine inside? Why hasn’t there been any word about it?"

Zhou Chun looked up at the ceiling of the cave, his face showing doubt, feeling that things weren’t so simple.

The Black Mist Marsh is located within the human territories of the Great Zhou Kingdom. If there was a Fifth-Order Demon King inside, even a Fifth-Grade High-Level Monster King would likely have been besieged by those Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators of the Great Zhou Kingdom.

Even if a Fifth-Order Demon King came from outside, it shouldn’t be able to hide itself without leaving the slightest trace.

After all, the demand for spirit veins by a Fifth-Order Demon King is enormous, and there are very limited places within Black Mist Marsh that could house such a powerful existence.
