The Path of Survivor begins with obtaining titles

Chapter 711: Chapter 355: Found Master Golden Sword_2
 

This time, the Teleportation Effect was triggered, and Lin Yi’s figure disappeared from the side of the Demon Tribe, reappearing on the side of the Demon race. He quickly regained his composure, and looking at the distinguished mountain wall behind him, a smile appeared on his face. This ability to instantly teleport was indeed very useful.

He looked up at the sky. The territory of the Demon race was shrouded in dimness, and around there lingered some blood-red mist, giving off an apocalyptic vibe, which was quite oppressive. It wasn’t just the demons from the Dark Abyss who came out that would feel it—if the humans stayed here for too long, they’d go mad from the oppression.

Moreover, the books in the Tai Xuan Dao Palace recorded that this blood-red mist in the territory of the Demon race was actually Demonic Qi. Staying here too long, even if one didn’t breathe, the Demonic Qi would gradually invade the body, causing Cultivators to turn demon. This was also why humans could not invade the territory of the Demon race on a large scale.

Unless the Dark Abyss in this region was eliminated, there would be no way for this dim territory to return to a state of blue skies and white clouds.

There was also a Human race Spirit City in the Demon Clan region that had been conquered. It was said that, within a few days of the conquest, the area was enveloped in blood-red mist, and the sky darkened, presumably due to the expansion of the Dark Abyss there.

This Human race Spirit City was situated midway between the Spirit City of Demon Purging and the Demon Slaying Spirit City, once a bulwark against the Demon race but later overrun, leaving the three great Spirit Cities face to face with the threat of the Demon race.

While at the Tai Xuan Dao Palace, Lin Yi discovered that the black-armored guard who appeared in the crisis scene of the Lower Realm ascension was Elder Xu Fenghai from the Demon Slaying Spirit City, with Fusion cultivation levels, initiating his path with a saber, and brutally overpowering.

The Overlord Clone had also arrived at this Demon Slaying Spirit City, and honestly, this clone was quite headstrong. During the demon-slaying, Overlord displayed such an overwhelming momentum that completely outshone Elder Xu Fenghai’s, overshadowing the aura of this Fusion-level Elder.

Additionally, the way Overlord Clone conducted himself on a daily basis was quite unlike Xu Fenghai’s cold-hearted nature, which earned him the respect and admiration of many Cultivators.

However, since the Overlord Clone had pledged allegiance to another Elder, Xu Fenghai, even if extremely irritated internally, could not do anything to Overlord.

Considering the distance from that conquered Human race Spirit City, it would be unlikely for Master Golden Sword to have entered the city; rather, he must still be on the fringes of the Demon Clan region. Otherwise, the Minor Blessing State’s divinations would have targeted the Demon Slaying Spirit City.

After some thought, Lin Yi again used the Minor Blessing State to check the direction of Master Golden Sword and confirmed that he was still alive, so he quickly set off in that direction.

He did not fly with Sword Control through the territory of the Demon race; doing so would undoubtedly make him a moving target. Even with the title of Emperor of Survival, it could attract the attack of the surrounding Demon race.

While moving swiftly, he also saw many Demon Beasts, exactly like the ones he encountered during his trials in the Tai Xuan Tower—red-eyed, odd-shaped, and thoroughly horrific.

Some were crawling on the ground, others flying in the sky. Combined with the dusky sky and the surrounding blood-red aura, it was like a vision of hell itself.

Passing by the Demon race without attracting their attacks, Lin Yi couldn’t help but smile. It seemed that the diminished Presence of the Emperor of Survival title was effective against these lesser-mentality demons.

The Emperor of Survival title had a 65% reduction in Presence, and the attribute-less Golden Human Infant allowed him to use Spiritual Power without any Five Elements aura. The Demon race hunted Human Ascenders by sensing the Five Elements Spiritual Power.

In the territory of the Demon race, one couldn’t avoid using Spiritual Power; otherwise, the Demonic Qi would keep entering the body until one became a creature that was neither human nor ghost.

Lin Yi had previously tried to absorb the Demonic Qi with the Golden Human Infant’s body, but with no effect. He had to use a Spiritual Power Shield to keep the Demonic Qi at bay.

Either the Golden Human Infant could only absorb Five Elements Spiritual Power, or its realm was too low to absorb the mysterious Demonic Qi that was beyond the Five Elements Spiritual Power.

If he had come with his original body, possibly the three Auras of Creation could have absorbed this Demonic Qi. However, there was also a chance, like before in the Fox Tribe Cave Mansion of Big Monster City, that the low-level Yin Evil Qi of the Fox Clan was so beneath the three auras that they wouldn’t bother with it at all.

As time passed, Lin Yi gradually penetrated deeper into the demon race territory. Every so often, he used his Minor Blessing State to confirm Master Golden Sword’s location.

He realized that the direction of Master Golden Sword hadn’t changed at all, which brought a grave expression to his face. If the location remained the same, there were only two possibilities, one was waiting for death, and the other was hiding somewhere, evading the enemy’s pursuit.

The defense points between the Demon Tribe and the demon race were deeper than the location of Big Monster City because Big Monster City used to be the Spirit City of the human race, and the original territory of the Demon Tribe was located even deeper.

However, he couldn’t travel by Sword Control at the moment. Otherwise, it would attract the demon race’s encirclement, and his speed would only slow down. He hoped that Master Golden Sword could hold on until he arrived.

Some time after entering the demon race territory, Lin Yi changed his identity once and discovered that through the Eye of Emptiness, he could see the cause and effect lines connecting him to Master Golden Sword, which meant they weren’t far apart.

Afterward, he transformed back into the identity of Hua Tuo and used various speed techniques to move swiftly. After several months, he felt the presence of a battle ahead and couldn’t help but be invigorated. Concealing his essence, he stealthily made his way there.

Following the trail of energy, Lin Yi quietly approached a valley. In the valleys of both the Demon and Demon races, most were full of birdsong and fragrant flowers, but this piece of demon race territory was growing plants infused with Demonic Qi, which also had a violent temperament.

Even the animals living here would gradually turn into demon beasts under the influence of Demonic Qi. However, compared to the demons of the Dark Abyss, these could only be considered the most rudimentary.

At this moment, he also sensed the familiar aura of Master Golden Sword, that hint of golden sword light was very conspicuous.

But aside from the demon race, there were also members of the Demon Tribe present; it seemed they were specifically there to pursue Master Golden Sword, no wonder he was having such difficulty moving forward.

From the aura of his swordsmanship, it was clear that Master Golden Sword had suffered severe injuries, and even if he wasn’t at the end of his rope yet, he probably wouldn’t last much longer.

Moreover, in the territory of the demon race, where Demonic Qi prevailed, it was impossible to replenish Spiritual Energy by absorbing external Spiritual Qi, one could only rely on Spirit Stones or Pills.

What’s more, under relentless pursuit, the consumption of Spiritual Power was extremely rapid. Replenishing it through Spirit Stones would waste a lot of time, while taking Pills was the best choice, but it also required time to recuperate.

Beyond Master Golden Sword, Lin Yi also sensed another presence from the human race, a woman. It couldn’t possibly be Xu Yu Rou; it must be another Ascender from the Cultivation World who was also gravely injured and was using some measures to withstand attacks.

“Today, this place will be your graveyard. Escaping from the clutches of our Demon Tribe is impossible. We will hang your heads in front of the Spirit City of the human race, and as for the woman you saved from the demon race, she will become a plaything for our Demon Tribe, hahaha…”

Hearing these words, Lin Yi didn’t need to look to know that it must be the Fox Clan. Only a sinister and venomous Demon Tribe would engage in such despicable acts.

In the valley, Jin Heng was using his Golden Sword Technique to fend off the attacks from both the Demon and Demon Tribe, while saying to the woman beside him, “Hua Guang fellow cultivator, you should run first.”

“Golden Sword fellow cultivator, had it not been for your help before, I wouldn’t have been able to survive until now. How could I merely survive ignobly now…”

“Alas, to die alongside a fellow cultivator is also worthwhile. It’s just a pity that I haven’t found Fellow Feather and have no face to meet my disciples.”n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Outside the valley, Lin Yi wasted no time and donned various titles that increased damage, aiming to exert his maximum strength.
