Comprehension Ability: Creating and teaching the Dao in various worlds

Chapter 716: Chapter 16: Generous Bounty (Please Subscribe)_2

But the risk of such behavior was encountering the Myriad Tribes’ Powerhouses prematurely.

Shooting the leading bird exposes oneself too early and is very likely to be targeted by ill-intentioned people.

“At the Witch Emperor Peak Realm, my true combat power should be no weaker than the Witch Emperor,” Lin Yuan was confident.

Compared to native powerhouses, Lin Yuan, as an outsider, had a broader perspective and a more profound mastery and application of power, vastly outstripping the local Witch Emperors.

Over the years, Lin Yuan had utilized his Against-Heaven’s Understanding to create various techniques and combat methods, bringing his killing tactics to an astonishing level.

“The upcoming Witch Emperor Realm… by deduction, is a critical phase related to unlocking all my potential once stepping into the Witch Ancestor Realm,” Lin Yuan thought silently.

…

In the beginning of his cultivation, Lin Yuan had started calculating the path beyond the Witch Ancestor Realm due to his Against-Heaven’s Understanding, aware of the importance of the Witch Emperor Realm.

Indeed, starting from the Witch Emperor Realm, Lin Yuan had gradually discarded the original cultivation system of this world and began creating a cultivation method completely suited to himself and adaptable to this world.

“Still, I need to reference a large number of cultivation methods from this world, otherwise stepping into the Witch Emperor could waste a lot of time,” Lin Yuan thought.

The Martial Path Evolutionary Path was also developed by observing and integrating various other evolutionary paths.

While Lin Yuan was deep in thought.

A voice suddenly came.

“My lord.”

“Come in,” Lin Yuan glanced at the door.

Soon.

A skinny man walked in.

This skinny man, named Zha Ran Gu, was the controller of the Luochuan gathering area, a Witch King Level powerhouse.

Twelve years ago, as Lin Yuan stepped into the Witch Emperor Realm, he conveniently subdued Zha Ran Gu, becoming the true master of this large gathering area.

Of course, Lin Yuan’s identity was unknown to outsiders, all maneuvers remained clandestine.

“Master,” Zha Ran Gu was respectfully poised.

Only he knew how terrifying Lin Yuan’s strength truly was.

When Lin Yuan first appeared before him and expressed his desire to take over the gathering area, Zha Ran Gu was skeptical, but everything that happened afterwards still made him tremble with fear.

The strength Lin Yuan displayed had far surpassed that of a Witch King, and many years ago, Zha Ran Gu had fortuitously seen a Witch Emperor-level powerhouse, but even that seemed inferior to Lin Yuan.

“Did you find out what I asked you to investigate?” Lin Yuan asked with a calm tone.

Since he was in hiding in the Luochuan gathering area, the entire area must be under his control, which was why Lin Yuan had subdued Zha Ran Gu.

After becoming the true master of the Luochuan gathering area, at least during the Witch Emperor stage, the cultivation resources were somewhat alleviated.

But that was just an alleviation; stepping into the Witch Emperor Realm would require a vast amount of resources that the Luochuan gathering area could not provide.

Thus, not long ago, Lin Yuan had Zha Ran Gu keep an eye on the surrounding information.

“My lord, the whereabouts of the Yunshan Eighteen Robbers have been confirmed,” Zha Ran Gu spoke softly. Sёarᴄh the nôvel_Fire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

The Yunshan Eighteen Robbers, notorious as eighteen utterly vile Witch Kings.

These eighteen Witch Kings, all at the peak of Witch King level, were nefarious and carried many bounties and warrants on their heads.

Adding up the bounties, each Witch King could fetch over two million witch crystals, making up nearly forty million witch crystals in total—a tremendous price.

Lin Yuan needed a massive amount of resources for cultivation, but how to obtain them?

The quickest method was raiding, but that bore great risks and was too high-profile.

Thus, accepting the bounties from the ancient country and hunting down those high-bounty fugitives seemed like the safest method Lin Yuan could think of.

Firstly, killing these desperadoes wouldn’t lead to future accountability, and by responding to the ancient country’s warrants, his identity would definitely be kept confidential.

In such a scenario, earning a sizable bounty perfectly matched Lin Yuan’s expectations.

This didn’t even include the personal wealth carried by the Yunshan Eighteen Robbers themselves.

“I understand,” Lin Yuan nodded.

The Yunshan Eighteen Robbers, having recently perpetrated a major crime, were pursued by Witch Emperor-level powerhouses and had since fled to nearby areas.

As the kingpin of the Luochuan gathering place, having operated here for many years, Zha Ran Gu had quickly pinpointed the general area where the Yunshan Eighteen Robbers were likely hiding.

“My lord, if you intend to handle the Yunshan Eighteen Robbers, please be extremely cautious; they have trained in a combined attack technique that even Witch Emperors have to avoid…”

Zha Ran Gu cautioned softly.

The bounty on the Yunshan Eighteen Robbers, nearly forty million witch crystals, was a fortune even Witch Emperors coveted deeply.

Yet, over the years, the Yunshan Eighteen Robbers had roamed freely, pursued by many Witch Emperors, all of whom returned empty-handed.

Even a few Witch Emperors had been injured by these eighteen robbers, suffering considerable losses.

Zha Ran Gu revered Lin Yuan’s power, but faced with such fierce foes as the Yunshan Eighteen Robbers, abundant caution was never excessive.

…

Dongyuan City.

This was the closest city to the Luochuan gathering area and was a rare large city.

On its bustling and lively streets, Lin Yuan walked leisurely, his appearance and physique significantly altered.

Since he planned to kill the Yunshan Eighteen Robbers, Lin Yuan naturally had accepted the bounty in advance.

If he killed first and then accepted the bounty, disputes might arise.

Xueyu Tavern.

This was an official reward issuing point established by the Xueyu Ancient Country.

It was specifically used to pursue those utterly evil criminals, and anyone could also issue a bounty targeting someone here.

When Lin Yuan entered Xueyu Tavern, someone promptly appeared to serve him.

“Are you here to accept a bounty, or to issue one?” The person serving Lin Yuan was a hunchbacked old man who watched Lin Yuan with a deep, steady gaze.
