The Path of Survivor begins with obtaining titles

Chapter 695: 348 Chapter Quickly Retreat
 

In order to reach his destination as quickly as possible, Lin Yi used all his speed-enhancing methods — title effects and the Wind-Thunder Divine Jutsu — maintaining his velocity at the limit.

After flying for about ten days, he felt the presence of a Refining Void Monster Beast in the forest below. Using the Eye of Emptiness to take a closer look, he discovered it was a Fox Demon.

It seems that the Fox Clan had stationed Monster Beasts to guard the route to the human Spirit City, intent on a ruthless extermination.

According to the position provided by the Golden Peng Monster Ancestor, it appeared that the human Ascenders had no intention of approaching the Spirit City, most likely having guessed the trap set by the Monster Beasts.

The strength of human Ascenders all lies within the Deification Realm, and the relentless pursuit had made it impossible for them to cultivate in peace. To advance from Deification to Refining Void usually requires at least a thousand years, even with an excellent cultivation environment.

If Master Golden Sword of Liu Yun Sect had successfully reached Deification and ascended during the day, he would have only been ascended for a few hundred years by now.

It was unknown how many of his old friends from the Heng Yuan World who practiced cultivation had managed to ascend, and safely arrived in the Spirit Profound Realm through the turbulent space of the Ascension Tunnel.

The odds of survival were high if they arrived in the Demon Tribe Territory, but if they were unfortunate enough to land in the Demon race or Insect Race territory, then their chances were slim.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

The Refining Void Fox Clan member below, seeing Lin Yi in the form of a Golden Jiao Dragon flying by, changed expression and reached out with a message, “Fellow Daoist Long Ao, why do you come from the direction of the human Spirit City to this region? What business do you have here?”

“The affairs of this seat are not of your concern,” Lin Yi replied indifferently, continuing to fly straight ahead. Without the help of a teleportation array, it would take some years for the information from that Fox Tribe Demon Ancestor to reach here.

Hearing Lin Yi’s haughty response, the Fox Clansman of the Refining Void Realm’s expression darkened, but he did not step forward to stop him. Back at the Spirit Demon-Slaying City, this Jiao Dragon had been able to withstand attacks from their Fox Clan’s Integration Stage demons — he, a mere practitioner of the Refining Void Realm, was no match.

Watching Lin Yi’s departing silhouette, he looked towards the direction of the Spirit City. Could it be that this Golden Serpent was returning to the human race to rescue these human Ascenders? His expression changing drastically, he quickly sent a message to the back.

Lin Yi, using the Eye of Emptiness, saw the message within the Talisman template flying perhaps even faster than himself and therefore used the Heavenly Yang Energy to incinerate it immediately.

He could naturally guess the content and feared that, if it reached the Fox Demon hunting the human Ascenders, they might hasten their effort to finish the hunt quickly.

Afterward, he flew up even higher into the sky, covering his body with the energies of heaven, earth, and man to shield himself from others’ probes as he prepared to arrive at his destination undetected.

It had taken Lin Yi less than ten days to travel from Big Monster City to the human Spirit Demon-Slaying City, but reaching the position given by Golden Peng Demon Ancestor took nearly twenty days —he had entered deep into the true territory of the Demon Tribe.

Perhaps the human Ascenders were being forced step by step deeper into the heart of Demon Tribe Territory.

The locations of the two overrun human Spirit Cities were simply the Demon Tribe’s front-line defense; the true Demon Tribe Territory was deeper within the forest.

Upon reaching the approximate location, Lin Yi saw several Transformed Monster Beasts lying in ambush in the forest, likely to prevent any human Ascenders from escaping the encirclement.

Continuing forward for another two days, he saw a large contingent of the Demon Tribe encircling a small mountain. Among these beings, he sensed the presence of three Great Demons of the Integration Stage, clearly indicating the Fox Clan’s determination to capture the human Ascenders and guard against any cultivator rescue attempts.

After all, each Ascender was of the Deification Realm. Even hundreds of Deification Realm beings combined were no match for a single Great Demon of the Integration Stage.

The purpose of these Great Demons was to prevent other human races from mounting a rescue.

In addition, there were more than ten Void Refinement Monster Beasts; it seemed that the Fox Clan really was resolute this time.

Above in the skies, there were also Bird Demonic Beasts on guard.

The human Ascenders had been fleeing for many years, but now they had been accurately found, likely because one of the Ascenders had faced the Tribulation of Ascension, which revealed their location.

The phenomena produced during Crossing Tribulation were too conspicuous to be hidden by ordinary means. Even from a great distance, it could be detected.

On that small mountain, Lin Yi sensed a familiar presence. If not mistaken, it should be Sage Yu Huan who had now reached Divinity and should be addressed as a True Sovereign.

The real name of Yu Huan was Chen Huanyu, which was just a reversal of his Daoist name and given name.

Besides the presence of Chen Huanyu, he could not feel others. Could it be that Master Golden Sword and his disciple Xu Yu Rou had not ascended, or had they been swept to the Demon race or elsewhere by the turbulent space?

If they had been killed by the Fox Clan, with the Fox Clan’s cunning and venomous nature, they would undoubtedly parade their corpses in front of the human Spirit City. If caught by the turbulent space to the human territory, he would know through Tai Xuan Dao Palace.

On the mountain, he sensed six presences, only one of which was familiar. It seemed that in the past several hundred years, cultivators at the Deification level from the five other cultivation worlds connected to Qinglian Spirit City had ascended as well.

He also sensed the presence of a Formation on the mountain — many offensive and Defensive Arrays had been set up.
