Chapter 221: In the World Wide Web, News Swells; Today I Realize I Am Me

Lin Yan’s concerns were not unfounded.

In the cyber era, a sudden change in a person’s temperament often warranted caution from their companions.

It was often a sign of viral infection, a curse, becoming an “electronic ghost.” Seeing Lin Hong willing to argue with her, Lin Yan breathed a sigh of relief.

Lin Hong returned to his usual indifference, throwing out an anti-gravity flying sword to stand on. Together, they flew away from the Black Dragon Stronghold.

Half an hour later.

“Here we are, Yellowstone Town.”

Lin Yan looked down from above, overlooking the settlement and commenting, “How dirty and backward these mortal towns are.” “The wind direction is just right, let’s begin.”

Lin Hong stated.

The two unfastened four metal canisters from their waists and threw them into the four corners of Yellowstone Town – east, south, west, and north.

Lin Yan lifted her wrist and tapped a few times on the smartwatch’s dial.

The metal canisters, receiving the signal, emitted a faint glow.

The lids opened, releasing dark smoke.

It was just dawn, and the Sangna Plains often had cloudy weather, making the murky morning an excellent camouflage.

This substance was called [Beast Attractant], a biological lure containing certain hormonal signals.

The wind was blowing from south to north today.

The townspeople of Yellowstone Town were waking up, starting fires for cooking. The cooking smoke mixed with the Beast Attractant, drifting toward the northern mountains.

After a long while, the ground began to tremble slightly.

As if something had awoken.

Lin Hong circled around Yellowstone Town, tossing down grains of “iron sand” – upon closer inspection, they were small metal spheres, each about the size of a mung bean.

Under the control of the Foundation Building cultivators, these metal spheres spread out, keeping a ten-meter distance from each other, encircling Yellowstone Town.

“Roar—I’

A deep roar came from afar.

From behind the undulating hills of the wilderness, a huge shadow emerged.

This was a bizarrely shaped ferocious beast.

It was as tall as a ten-story building, with a wolf-like head and a body as robust as a wild buffalo, with six thick limbs and razor-sharp claws.

Most notably, beneath its neck, at the chest, there was another gaping maw, with sharp and densely packed fangs, exuding a foul stench.

This ferocious beast was the target of the two Pseudo Core realm cultivators, a Desolate God.

“As long as we kill this Desolate God, our coming-of-age ceremony will be complete.”

Lin Yan narrowed her eyes.

This Desolate God was intentionally bred by her family on the Sangna Plains.

It was a ritual.

Whenever an important child was born in the family, a Desolate God would be sealed in a remote place.

When that child reached the Pseudo Core realm, they would hunt the Desolate God as their rite of passage.

After completing this ritual, they could return to their family to start advancing towards the Golden Core.

This Desolate God was sealed in the Sangna Plains the year Lin Yan was born.

Covered in thick mud and plants, its movement shook them off.

In the years on the Sangna Plains, it had been in a dormant state, covered by soil and growing plants.

Now forcefully awakened, it faced a fateful battle.

“After I complete my coming-of-age ceremony, we’ll go home.”

Lin Yan’s eyes flickered, “Then I’ll ask father’s permission for us to marry, alright?”

Lin Hong nodded slightly, “Alright.”

A smile appeared on Lin Yan’s face, but below them, there were noisy sounds.

The Desolate God’s movements were too significant, waking the townspeople of Yellowstone Town. They ran out to find such a colossal creature outside their town.

However, Lin Hong had already prepared. The mung bean-sized metal particles formed a vast electric net, covering the sky above Yellowstone Town.

For “New Humans,” the voltage of the net was not fatal, but if the townspeople tried to break through, they would be paralyzed by the electricity and fall to the ground.

[Thunder Dao Array Dragon Locking Formation]

The mortals below cried out in shock and agony. Lin Yan, finding it amusing, tapped her wristwatch a few times, increasing the current to make the screams louder.

She would not let these people escape.

The rites of passage for major families had their requirements.

The Desolate God had just awoken from its slumber and was not in peak condition. They were not allowed to hunt it at this time.

Sacrifices of living beings were necessary to fill the Desolate God’s deficit before the hunt could commence.

This was the etiquette of the cyber nobility.

Lin Yan was not worried about the Desolate God being too strong for her to handle.

Not to mention she was also a genius in her family, already in her twenties and had reached the Pseudo-Dan realm.

This time, leaving her family, she also had Lin Hong by her side.

Two Pseudo Core cultivators against one Desolate God was more than enough.

Lin Yan did not care about the lives of Yellowstone Town’s townspeople.

Merely mortals, barely adequate as fodder for feeding the Desolate God.

Under the lure of the pheromones, the blood-thirsty Desolate God inched closer to Yellowstone Town.

The townspeople became increasingly panicked, desperately crashing against the electric net, only to be knocked unconscious by the current.

Amidst the cries and screams, Lin Hong came up behind Lin Yan, gently wrapping his arms around her waist.

“Do you remember? I once said I wanted to be with you forever.”

Lin Hong whispered in her ear.

“Of course, I remember.’

Lin Yan smiled slightly, “Back then, we were only… Ah…’ She let out a small exclamation.

Because Lin Yan felt a soft, smooth touch on her neck..
