Chapter 1999 - 458: Failed Attempt at Murder?

The dark octopus wouldn't just let him go for not moving, so it brewed its emotions for a moment and extended its long tentacle to attack him.

"Oh my god!"

Lei Ming shouted, unable to contain his fear any longer, and ran for his life with all his might.

Seeing this, Lin Yifan quickly flew over and lifted Lei Ming into the air, fleeing away from the sea.

Several groups of people were not far behind Lei Ming, so when they saw the long black tentacle attacking them, they couldn't care about anything else. They immediately dropped the spirit beasts they had just hunted and the corpses of spirit beasts and ran for their lives.

Everyone was in a great escape, but unfortunately, those cultivators of lower realms were too slow and got caught and sucked by the black tentacle, and were instantly delivered into the mouth of the dark octopus.

Those spirit beasts and corpses were not exempt either and were eaten completely.

The dark octopus couldn't go ashore, so after eating this small bite, it sank into the sea, disappearing with reluctance.

After surviving the ordeal, Lei Ming sincerely thanked, "Yifan, thank you."

"No need to be polite. If it weren't for you, I might also have ended up as a meal for the dark octopus." Lin Yifan replied.

"Speaking of which, why is there such a huge creature in the Sea of Death?" Lei Ming wondered, still feeling uneasy as he looked toward the Sea of Death.

"I'm not sure either, maybe the survival environment in the sea is good." Lin Yifan replied.

...

Seeing that Lei Ming and the man attacked by the dark octopus were acquaintances, several groups of people approached, making a big scene as if they had another agenda.

"Are you the man who was just swallowed by the Hornwood Flood Dragon?"

"That's right, what's up?" Lin Yifan countered, having already guessed why these people had come.

"Did you kill the Hornwood Flood Dragon?"

"No! The Hornwood Flood Dragon was killed by the dark octopus." Lin Yifan replied.

"Then how come you managed to escape?"

"I just escaped when the Hornwood Flood Dragon's stomach was bitten open." Lin Yifan answered.

"You're lying. The dark octopus has no teeth; how could it bite open? And how could a cultivator like you from the Great Immortal Realm survive in the stomach of a Mysterious Immortal First Realm Hornwood Flood Dragon for dozens of minutes?"

"Big brother, I have my magical treasures, so don't worry about it."

"Liar! Lying from beginning to end. Tell us, are the Constellation Beads in your possession?"

"Are you crazy? I've already said that I didn't kill the Hornwood Flood Dragon. If you want the Constellation Beads, go after the dark octopus." Lin Yifan replied.

"Damn it, it seems you're refusing good wine only to drink the penalty wine."

"What do you want?" Lin Yifan immediately becomes alert, preparing to fight.

"Either hand over the Constellation Beads, or give up your life, it's your choice."

"Damn it, thinking I'm a sick cat? Lei Little Brother, bring out the weapon and let them taste the devastating power!" Lin Yifan shouted.

Without hesitation, Lei Ming immediately took out the secret weapon to confront the group.

Staring at the shiny secret weapon in Lei Ming's hand, the groups couldn't help but gulp and tremble, backing away continuously.

They just witnessed the power of the secret weapon, a thing that could even repel the dark octopus; it must be incredibly formidable.

"So, plotting something?"

"Big brother, aren't you getting it the wrong way? You're the ones trying to plot against us, right?" Lin Yifan asked with a smile.

"No one's plotting against you, we just thought you'd be untrustworthy, so we wanted to scare you a bit."

"Untrustworthy? I think you're the most untrustworthy!" Lin Yifan replied, "Lei Little Brother, attack and let this bunch of bastards taste our might."

When the enemy is afraid, you must push forward; that's the only way to intimidate them.

"No no no! Brother, we were wrong, we're leaving, we're leaving!"

The groups dared not oppose Lei Ming and Lin Yifan, as life was more important than the Constellation Beads.

If they got the Hornwood Beads but couldn't enjoy them, it would be defeat; why would they want such defeat?

"Smart choice, or I really would've wanted to kill you."

Lin Yifan vented his anger in front of these people, threatening them.

The effect was good, and these groups immediately left sheepishly, not daring to look back.

After watching the groups leave, Lin Yifan turned around and told Lei Ming to pack up and leave.

As he stepped past Lei Ming and walked a few steps, Lei Ming remained motionless, still holding the pretending stance.

"Hey! They've all left, why are you still posing?"

"Whew!"

Lei Ming exhaled deeply and wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, explaining softly, "Brother Lin, you don't know, the cultivation power inside the secret weapon has been completely used up and can't be mobilized for attack anymore."

"Oh no, why didn't you say it earlier?"

"I wanted to, but it was so dangerous just now, so tense, how could I dare speak?" Lei Ming answered, aggrieved.

Lin Yifan felt there was some sense to it.

If he had revealed it, wouldn't that have exposed their shortcomings?

"Then let's leave quickly, it would be bad if they come back."

"Okay!"

The pair immediately agreed and left.

As they moved away, a pair of dark, deep eyes appeared at the end of the Sea of Death.

They stared fixedly at Lin Yifan, never leaving.

The end of the Realm of Longevity is a terrifying place, and today Lin Yifan realized what a forbidden zone really is.

This place is a lethal area and can be termed a burial ground, humans shouldn't tread here lightly.

The unfortunate part is, today he didn't find the magic spell in the Sea of Death, so he doesn't know the depth of the Sea of Death or its connection with Snow Moon Lake.

The groups that left were not content to let Lin Yifan and Lei Ming leave, so after entering the forest, they changed direction to secretly pursue Lin Yifan and Lei Ming.

In the dead of night, while resting in the forest, Lin Yifan and Lei Ming were suddenly attacked.

After a wave of hidden weapon attacks, the groups hurriedly emerged from the darkness, heading towards where Lin Yifan and Lei Ming lay sleeping.

When they reached the sleeping spot of Lin Yifan and Lei Ming, they found that lying under the blanket were logs, not people.

"Damn!"

They felt something was wrong, believing they had been tricked.

Actually, it wasn't their fault, for the campfire had gone out and only the charcoal was burning, making it so dark that they couldn't see Lin Yifan and Lei Ming, only knew that they slept by the black fire.

"Clap clap clap!"

In the darkness, rhythmic clapping sounded, exceptionally clear and eerie.
