Comprehension Ability: Creating and teaching the Dao in various worlds

Chapter 719: Chapter 18 Supreme Weapons? (Seeking Subscriptions)

“This compass?”

Lin Yuan’s expression revealed a hint of surprise.

In the Two-dimensional World, any supernatural power would be diminished, leaving only the purest physical form.

But this bronze compass emitted a certain mysterious aura to Lin Yuan.

This barely detectable feeling of surpassing the suppression of the Two-dimensional World made Lin Yuan slightly more solemn.

As far as he knew, so far, no level of life or treasure had been able to withstand the dimensional suppression.

Ultimate existences.

“How do I use it?”

Lin Yuan keenly noticed the fresh blood remaining on the bronze compass.

“Is it with fresh blood?”

Lin Yuan speculated in his heart.

“I’ll study it slowly when I get back.”

Lin Yuan pocketed the bronze compass, checked the bodies of Yunshan’s eighteen thieves several times to ensure nothing was overlooked, and then left with their vital organs.

To claim the bounty for the Yunshan eighteen thieves, one must prove that they had indeed killed the other party.

And here, the proof generally consisted of the opponent’s vital organs.

Although Lin Yuan reaped great benefits from the bodies of the Yunshan eighteen thieves, he did not forget the bounty witch crystals on them.

These were handed out for free, naturally not to be wasted.

…

Dongyuan City.

Xueyu Tavern.

The hunchbacked old man was dozing off; as a peak powerhouse from the Ancient Capital of Xueyu Ancient Country, to avoid the enticements of many powers, he specially took the job as the tavern keeper in Xueyu Tavern of Dongyuan City.

Although Dongyuan City was a large city, it was far from the capital and the convergence of powers.

Here, there weren’t as many troubles, and the hunched old man had already decided to retire in this place.

He was already very old, his vitality waning, and no longer suited to compete with those peak-power Witch Emperors in their prime.

“Due to the Yunshan eighteen thieves moving to the surroundings, a large number of powerhouses from the Ancient Country have already gradually converged here.”

The hunched old man shook his head slightly, feeling quite helpless.

The bounty alone for the Yunshan eighteen thieves reached sixty million witch crystals.

Plus their original possessions and the accumulations over many years,

even peak Witch Emperors were extremely eager.

However, peak Witch Emperors were ultimately a minority; most of those who came to hunt the Yunshan eighteen thieves were teams formed by many strong individuals.

“Hm?”

“That young man is here again?”

The hunched old man’s gaze shifted and saw Lin Yuan entering the tavern again.

The hunched old man had a deep impression of Lin Yuan.

First, because Lin Yuan dared to accept the bounty for the Yunshan eighteen on his own.

Second, because Lin Yuan was not any of the strong individuals the hunched old man knew.

Third, because the time Lin Yuan had been away was too short, less than a day.

…

Inside a private room of the tavern.

Lin Yuan sat opposite the hunched old man.

“How is it? Are you planning to give up on the bounty mission?” the old man asked without any hint of mockery.

The Yunshan eighteen thieves were powerful and possessed numerous trump cards; even in his peak period, he wasn’t sure of defeating them, let alone Lin Yuan, who seemed very young?

The hunched old man speculated that Lin Yuan must be a scion out for experience from some major family?

On a whim, he wanted to take on the bounty for the Yunshan eighteen, but after a day’s journey, he found he couldn’t even trace the Yunshan eighteen.

So he returned to the tavern intending to give up the quest.

“No, I’m here to claim the bounty,” Lin Yuan said.

“To claim the bounty?”

The hunched old man looked at Lin Yuan, not reacting for a moment.

Claim the bounty for the Yunshan eighteen thieves?

“This is their skulls.”

Lin Yuan opened the bag he carried, and eighteen skulls rolled out.

The ‘proof’ of killing the Yunshan eighteen thieves required vital organs like skulls, not just any body part.

Only such vital organs like skulls could be recognized by Xueyu Tavern.

Lin Yuan had, of course, figured all this out before accepting the bounty, so there wouldn’t be any issues at this time.

As for how to substantiate that these skulls came from the Yunshan eighteen, Xueyu Tavern had its own methods to verify this.

“Skulls?”

The hunched old man’s expression became grave.

Although he was not sure at the moment if these eighteen skulls belonged to the Yunshan eighteen,

with his insight, he could directly judge whether these eighteen skulls came from powerhouses close to the level of a Witch Emperor.

Witch King, Witch Emperor, and even Witch Emperor, showed great difference in the degree to which they fortified their bodies, which affected the hardness and texture of their bones.

This was evident to anyone with a bit of experience.

“Please, wait a moment.”

The hunched old man’s tone changed immediately.

He swiftly called his subordinates to take the eighteen skulls out.

A moment later,

the hunched old man walked into the private room quickly and spoke with a bit of respect, “My lord, the skulls have been confirmed to belong to the Yunshan eighteen.”

“Hmm.” Lin Yuan nodded.

The reputation of Xueyu Tavern was indeed reliable.

Lin Yuan chose to accept the bounty at Xueyu Tavern precisely because of its ‘leniency.’

Anybody could post and accept bounty missions at Xueyu Tavern without declaring their identity.

Though Xueyu Tavern originated from Xueyu Ancient Country, over the long years, it had already become independent, serving all witches or stronger beings from all twelve ancient nations.

“This is Blood Rain Tea, which only the imperial clan members of Xueyu Ancient Country can enjoy,” the hunched old man waved his hand, and immediately a cup of tea was brought forward.

The tea was the color of blood red; Lin Yuan was not planning to drink it, but casually glanced at it and noticed mysterious auras flowing within.

“This tea?”

Lin Yuan’s brow twitched.

The mysterious fluctuation in the tea gave him a similar feeling to the bronze compass, though far less intense and mysterious.

Had he not just encountered the bronze compass, Lin Yuan would probably have just thought the tea unique, not considering a direction of breaking free from the dimensional suppression of the Two-dimensional World.
