Chapter 436: 436. [The High Priest’s Avatar]
The paper crane flew away from West State and arrived at the area of the Lost Forest.

For this location, Mao Nanbei still had lingering fears.

Earlier, she and Lu Xun had been ambushed by Yin Tian here. She had almost lost her life.

“Little Junior Brother, look over there! That’s where I was covering for you!” Mao Nanbei pointed at a nearby spot, bragging to Lu Xun.

“I remember, there might still be a deep pit I made on the ground.” Lu Xun replied with a faint smile.

Back then, he had held Mao Nanbei as they fell from the sky, landing directly on his back. With his sturdy physique comparable to a Spirit Sword, he had eventually made a large pit on the ground.

The paper crane flew over that spot, Lu Xun glanced down and saw that the large pit was still there.

It had rained yesterday, and the pit had gathered quite a bit of rainwater.

Viewed from above, the pit appeared slightly human-shaped, especially the legs—it was too obvious.

Mao Nanbei was about to make some remarks pointing at the deep pit, but Lu Xun covered her eyes, saying, “Fourth Senior Sister, there’s nothing to see, stop moving, your hair is getting in my mouth.”

What does a kid have to do with looking at legs?

The second senior sister sat in front, with her fingers hidden in the wide sleeves of her daoist robe moving slightly from time to time.

Every time she moved her fingers, Sword Qi would appear in the distance, followed by the death of a member of the Foreign Race.

Within the Lost Forest, there were many high-level members of the Foreign Race, none of whom had escaped the second senior sister’s detection.

“Little Junior Brother, what are these Foreign Race thinking? With this level of strength, do they aim to take revenge for that Yi Xuan?” Mao Nanbei sat on Lu Xun’s shoulder, swinging her little feet as she spoke.

Simply put, Mao Nanbei’s meaning was: “Just this?”

Lu Xun shook his head and said, “These might just be their eyes and ears.”

With the Second Senior Sister and ‘The Sword Qi is Near’ by his side, even if the Foreign Race had lost their minds, they wouldn’t just send a handful of people for retaliation.

What’s the difference between this and delivering takeout?

Therefore, Lu Xun didn’t let his guard down, and neither did Gu Xiaoman.

The paper crane stopped in the center of the Lost Forest.

The Second Senior Sister spoke up, “Be…careful.”

Lu Xun stared straight ahead, a prompt popped up in front of his eyes.

“[Ding! Key Foreign Race figure ‘High Priest’ (Clone), has arrived at this location!]”

“They’ve actually sent the High Priest straightaway!” Lu Xun was shocked.

As the paper crane came to a halt, a ripple appeared in the sky ahead.

After the ripple dispersed, a slight distortion occurred in the air, as if space had been disrupted.

The next moment, a little boy who was even shorter than Mao Nanbei appeared in mid-air. He was chubby cheeked with an especially large head.

On his large head was a particularly big felt hat, making his head look even bigger.

As for his eyes, they were not clear like a child’s, but rather murky, like those of an old man’s.

This was the High Priest of the Foreign Race!

In the previous life, players tend to affectionately call him ‘Big Head Kid’, or ‘Big Head Son’

The High Priest hovered in the air and spoke with his juvenile but slightly hoarse voice, “Hey, there are still so many people in the Lost Forest. Why haven’t you continued to kill them?”

Gu Xiaoman, seated at the front of the paper crane, looking at this foreigner who looks like a boy but possesses unfathomable strength, calmly responded, “It’s…a formation.”

A very exaggerated expression appeared on the High Priest’s face, reminiscent of an over-the-top clown. He opened his mouth wide and said,

“As expected from the second disciple of the master, your eyesight is truly sharp, you actually saw through it!”

After saying that, he extended his plump right hand, laid it flat, and said, “Then you all can die sooner.”

The moment his words fell, he clenched his spread out fingers into a fist, and the Foreign Race members scattered in the Lost Forest turned into pools of blood one after another.

His first action upon appearing was to kill his own people!

At this moment, a surge of red light erupted from the location of each high-level member of the Foreign Race!

This surging red light intertwined in the sky before condensing to form a particularly malicious array.

The array seemed very profound. For some reason, it was filled with a strong smell of blood.

Even though only over ten people had died in the Lost Forest, the strong smell of blood within the array was as if thousands had died here.

The High Priest, standing at the center of the grand formation, had a hint of red light surfacing in his pupils with two blood moons appearing in his eyes!

“So these members of the Foreign Race aren’t spies, but part of the grand formation.” Lu Xun thought to himself.

It’s the usual ruthless way of the Foreign Race, being merciless to their enemies and even harsher to their own kind.

The High Priest, without batting an eye, used more than ten high-level members of the Foreign Race, like offerings, to “worship the heavens”.

Following the formation of the grand formation, the High Priest’s aura soared higher with each moment. Other than the blood moons appearing in his eyes, a bloody mark also surfaced on his forehead.

He took a deep breath, seeming to enjoy the strong smell of blood surrounding him to its fullest, his face revealing a smile of enjoyment.

As for Lu Xun and the others, they all felt a clear discomfort, with their circulation of spiritual power stagnating.

Their consciousness even seemed to blur somewhat!

Gu Xiaoman sitting on the paper crane, raised her right hand, forming one seal after another, and calmly said, “Calm!”

A refreshing aura spread out from her body, and instantly Lu Xun and Mao Nanbei’s discomfort vanished without a trace.

The very next moment, the wooden hairpin, within the black strands of her Second Senior Sister, flew in front of her.

Her long black hair cascaded over her shoulders and the cool Taoist nun, with her hair spread out, raised her hand and the wooden hairpin transformed into a wooden sword, landing in her palm.

With a light tip of her feet, she flew off the paper crane, raising her sword to meet the High Priest.

She could sense that this Foreigner, wearing a felt hat, had strength comparable to the Second Priest before the blood moon was condensed.

After the successful condensation of the blood moon, his strength was much stronger than that of the previous Second Priest!

This was one of the reasons the Second Priest feared the High Priest.

He couldn’t help it, he couldn’t beat even a single clone of the High Priest, there being too great a power gap between them.

“He’s very close to the ninth stage, even possessing some power of the ninth stage.” Gu Xiaoman speculated in her heart.

From the perspective of realm, this clone was a notch above Gu Xiaoman.

The High Priest’s original body of the Foreign Race was indeed a terrifying ninth level Foreigner in truth!

When Lu Xun played “Heavenly Dust” in his previous life, the presence of the High Priest on the battlefield would heavily tip the scales in favor of one side.

No matter how many players charged forward, it didn’t help, his presence truly was irresistible.

Therefore, while the players cried out “Big Head Son”, they were also scared to death.

If the Second Priest caused fear among the players, then the High Priest induced despair!

This was a level ninety plus Boss!

Back then, when Lu Xun had a deep feud with the Second Priest and encountered him thrice while playing the game, he only met with the High Priest once.

During that battle, the players were about to win when the High Priest suddenly appeared and threw the players into chaos, slaughtering indiscriminately from the moment he entered the battlefield.

He killed players madly, harvesting life relentlessly. The players were no match for him.

You throw skill at him, but it doesn’t drain his health, so what’s the point in fighting?

And the High Priest, too, was only a clone that time.

However, the Second Senior Sister is not a dumb player after all, she’s a Great Cultivator at the peak of the eighth stage.

With “Sound of Slow motion” in her grip, the power of “One Sword” made the clouds in the sky disappear instantly.

The Sword Qi pressed forward, and the High Priest raised his right hand, directly clenching his fist to withstand it.

The Sword Qi was shattered by his fist. He slightly adjusted the felt hat on his head, then rapidly flew towards the Second Senior Sister.

When his fist clashed with the wooden sword, the surge of violent and overwhelming energy spread out in all directions, causing many trees within Lost Forest to be uprooted and flung everywhere!

Gu Xiaoman leveraged the force to fly backwards, discharging all the strength of the High Priest in the process.

After moving to a suitable position, Gu Xiao Man’s eyebrows slightly creased, then she swiftly turned around and swung her sword.

“Boom——!”

A violent gale swept across. The second senior sister’s hasty strike almost severely damaged herself.

A distortion appeared in space, revealing an identical figure right in front of everyone.

Don’t forget, the Second Priest only has one fully-formed clone, but the High Priest has more than one!

At this moment, another clone of the High Priest suddenly appeared in the air!
