Tang Yin had reached the periphery of the Middle Ring, he was certain he was far away from those powerful Demonic Beasts. He was almost near the 100-foot tree which would signal the exit of the Middle Ring.
'I hear people' Tang Yin came to an immediate halt once he heard faint voices from up ahead. Mortals would not dare enter the Middle Ring; this meant these people were cultivators.
After brief contemplation, Tang Yin decided to skirt around these cultivators. The world was based on the law of the jungle. If the cultivators were stronger than Tang Yin, it would be hard to avoid trouble if he went towards them.
The voices became louder, one of the voices was very familiar to Tang Yin. 'Shan Yu', it was the voice that belonged to Shan Yu. Tang Yin immediately came to another halt, his eyes shone with a cold light, and he swiftly moved towards the direction of Shan Yu.
Tang Yin stood atop a tree in a discreet manner, below him were Shan Yu and his 3 followers. Killing Intent shone within Tang Yin's eyes, he had not forgotten the hell Shan Yu had put him through for many years in the Shan Family.
"Boss Yu, according to the map the elder gave us, the den of a Low Tier, Rank 1 Demonic Beast is 1000 yards to the left" one of Shan Yu's followers stated as he viewed the map in his hands.
"Is it really a good idea to hunt a Low Tier, Rank 1 Demonic Beast? Boss Yu, you're only in the 3rd stage of the Spirit Channelling Realm." A timid-looking youth lightly asked while covered in sweat. He was only in the 1st stage and his Martial Spirit was a needle, the Demonic Beast Mountain was very dangerous for people like him.
"Shan Mo, are you doubting my abilities? Did you forget my Martial Spirit is a Tier 8 Supreme Bear?" Shan Yu questioned the timid youth with an intimidating voice. The timid youth did not dare to offend Shan Yu; thus, he kept quiet while shrinking back.
Tang Yin had heard their whole conversion from atop the tree branch, the Abyssal Sword took form in his right hand silently. He had decided to strike.
Swoosh, Shan Yu had wanted to say something, but his words got stuck in his throat after seeing 2 of his follower's heads flying into the air. They didn't even have time to let out screams of pain.
The timid youth beside Shan Yu let out a shrill scream of pain, averting Shan Yu's attention towards him. What he saw left his throat as dry as a desert. Tang Yin slowly and casually pulled out his Abyssal Sword from the timid youth's heart. Plop, the timid youth fell over dead with a thud.
Shan Yu was rooted to the ground, he had never seen anyone die before, seeing his 3 followers die within the blink of an eye had left in dumbfounded. He didn't even have the courage to activate his Martial Spirit.
"It's you!!" Once Shan Yu got a clear look at Tang Yin's face, he fell to the ground while desperately crawling back. His mind had almost broken down once he saw Tang Yin slowly walking over with the Abyssal Sword in hand.
"Oh, you still remember me?" Tang Yin let out a cold sneer, he raised the Abyssal Sword towards Shan Yu. "Wait, if you kill me the Shan Family won't let you go!" Shan Yu tried to threaten Tang Yin with the Shan Family; however, Tang Yin did not care, he already had a grudge against the Shan Family for what they did to his father.
Tang Yin slashed at Shan Yu's legs, Shan Yu's legs fell to the ground instantly dying the grass red. "AH", Shan Yu screamed in pain and terror. Tang Yin had cut off both of Shan Yu's legs, he had crippled him.
"Wait, don't kill me please, I'll give you everything I have, don't kill me!" Shan Yu shouted in desperation after he saw Tang Yin lifting his Abyssal Sword once more. "Take out everything you have, if I like something, I might spare your life." Tang Yin said slowly, he stopped raising his sword and pointed it towards Shan Yu's neck.
A hint of hope had appeared in Shan Yu's despairing heart. His face was covered in snot and tears from the pain of having his legs chopped off. Despite this, for a chance to live, he quickly took off his peculiar silver ring and presented it to Tang Yin with both hands.
"Do you think a mere ring is enough to save your puny little life?" Tang Yin laughed coldly while drawing his Abyssal Sword closer to Shan Yu's neck.
"Wait, don't kill me, this is my storage ring, it has everything I own inside it." Shan Yu desperately explained in a hurry, afraid Tang Yin would kill him before he had a chance to explain himself.
"A storage ring?" Tang Yin asked in a skeptical tone, he had never heard of a storage ring before. "A s-storage ring is a ring with a spatial dimension inside of it, this dimension can be used to store anything that is none living." Shan Yu explained hurriedly while stuttering, he looked pathetic.
"Take out everything inside of your storage ring." Tang Yin's interest had been piqued; such a convenient item had caught his attention, and he wanted it.
Shan Yu didn't dare delay. Tang Yin saw numerous items appearing before him on the ground, these items included clothes, food, a strange stone and a jade box.
