The Path of Survivor begins with obtaining titles

Chapter 698: Chapter 349 Already Too Late_2
 

Seeing this scene, the three Integration Stage Fox Demons showed a look of horror on their faces, and they ran backward without hesitation.

As the late-stage Integration Fox Demon was running, it also turned its head to warn, “Fellow Daoist, please be merciful; this was our fault. We apologize to you. Do not take this to the extreme; otherwise, our Fox Tribe Demon Ancestor will not let you go…”

Lin Yi’s face was expressionless. In the Demon Tribe, where the weak are prey to the strong, you must never show weakness or subservience, or others will think you are easy to bully.

If this time he let the three Integration Stage Fox Demons go, although it wouldn’t fully offend the Fox Tribe, it would let others know that he had reservations, and as long as there is a Monster Ancestor to rely on, one would not dare to kill.

At this moment, the dragon in the sky, constructed from the Heavenly Yang Energy, suddenly began to condense into a beam of light, moving at an extremely fast speed, it pierced through the bodies of the three Integration Stage Fox Demons.

With eleven times the extra damage of the late-stage Integration strength, killing these great demons was as easy as killing a chicken.

Under this extra damage from the yang energy, the Yin Evil Qi within the three Fox Demons seemed to have been ignited, exploding instantly, and the three Fox Demons disappeared into ash.

However, the three Fox Demons had managed to escape with their Primordial Spirits just in time. Lin Yi gave a faint smile and did not move to kill them again, but instead wrapped the Primordial Spirits of these Fox Demons in Earthly Yin Energy and stored them inside a gourd.

At the same time, he took back all the Demon Tribe’s Storage Spiritual Artifacts.

Then, he used the Golden Human Energy to create a rebirth aura, and he performed a transcendence ritual on those Void Refinement Demonic Beasts, which hadn’t escaped with their Primordial Spirits.

After obtaining the cultivation of three kinds of energy, Lin Yi found the transcending abilities of the Golden Human Energy. The world is heartless, but humanity possesses affection. The transcendence effect of human energy is much stronger than that of a Rebirth Charm.

Of course, these Void Refinement Demonic Beasts had their Primordial Spirits annihilated, so the transcendence was just for show, merely to gain some Virtue Points.

If there was a chance to go to the Demon Clan’s territory, he wanted to see what effect the Golden Human Energy would have in transcending the demons, and whether it could restore reason to those naturally blood-thirsty beings.

Seeing the annihilation of both the Void Refinement and Integration Fox Demons, all the Monster Beasts that had accompanied the Fox Tribe knelt down on the ground, too terrified to entertain the thought of running away.

As for the Human Ascenders on the mountain, they were utterly shaken. The powerful Demon Tribe that had filled them with despair and even pushed them to consider suicide to avoid torture was so easily defeated by the Golden Serpent.

At this moment, they were also somewhat uneasy, afraid that the Golden Serpent with its fierce temperament would kill them on a whim.

“Thank you, senior, for the grace of saving us. We are willing to tell you everything we know,” said Chen Yuhuan, standing on top of the mountain, bowing to Lin Yi in the sky with cupped fists.

Seeing this, the other Human Ascenders also hastily bowed with cupped fists, saying the same words.

Lin Yi nodded slightly, and slowly flew above those Monster Beasts, “You have all seen today’s events. If other Demon Tribes ask, report the truth. Understand?”

“Yes, senior,” replied the kneeling Monster Beasts, sending Divine Intent, as those unable to project Divine Sense roared loudly.

“You may leave now,” Lin Yi said with a wave of his hand.

The Monster Beasts scattered and fled as if pardoned.

Afterward, Lin Yi slowly descended onto the mountain, looking at those Human Ascenders and said calmly, “Follow me and leave.”

“Yes, senior,” said several Human Ascenders, promptly speaking up.

Seeing these Ascenders with depleted Spiritual Power, Lin Yi released his Flying Sword, instructed them to stand on it, and then controlled the sword towards the direction of the Human race’s Spirit City.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

His purpose in coming to rescue these Human Ascenders was not to exchange pleasantries, but purely for rescue, and also to confirm whether any of his Cultivator friends from the Lower Realm were among them.

Now that he had saved Chen Yuhuan, it was a trip not made in vain.

On the way, Lin Yi spoke up, “Are the Ascenders in the Demon Tribe Area just you folks, or are there others?”

Chen Yuhuan bowed with folded hands, her face tinged with sadness as she replied, “Senior, there were originally three more with us, but during a pursuit, two were killed by Fox Demons while covering our escape, and their bodies were taken away.”

Lin Yi couldn’t help but take out the Storage Rings of those Integration Stage Fox Demons, and indeed, he found the bodies of two Immortal cultivators of Huashen, both men, and neither familiar faces from Heng Yuan World.

He continued to ask, “What about the other one?”

Chen Yuhuan spoke again, “The other one, like me, is from the same Cultivation World. His name is Jin Heng. Decades ago, we encountered an Ascender who had escaped from the Demon Clan Territory.”

“That person mentioned that in the Demon Clan Territory, there were other Ascenders, including a junior sister of Fellow Daoist Jin Heng named Xu Yu Rou. Hence, he left alone, venturing into the Demon Clan to gather intelligence. Unfortunately, according to what these Fox Demons said, he was gravely injured near the border, and his life hangs in the balance.”

Lin Yi’s expression remained calm, but his heart gave a sudden jolt; as he had guessed, both Master Golden Sword and Xu Yu Rou had ascended to this place, with some falling into the Demon Clan Territory.

However, he couldn’t immediately rush to the Demon Clan; he needed to plan, even though the amount of information about the Demon Clan within Tai Xuan Dao Palace was rather scant.

Moreover, the Dark Abyss seemed to possess its own intelligence, releasing more and more powerful members of the Demon Clan depending on the strength of those who enter.

This is why Human Cultivators can only act defensively and are unable to take the initiative to enter into the Demon Clan to search for the Dark Abyss; the more people who enter, the more Demons appear.

First, he needed to escort these Ascenders to a safe place, then he could contemplate entering the Demon Clan Territory.

When coming here, Lin Yi, in the form of a Jiao Dragon, flew to higher skies while also concealing his own aura. However, on the return journey, he didn’t hide anything.

The Fox Demons lying in ambush below, seeing Lin Yi escorting Human Ascenders who were flying on swords through the sky, heading in the direction of Spirit City, were all somewhat bewildered.

Where did this Long Ao come from, and why couldn’t they detect any aura from it?

Nevertheless, they didn’t dare to obstruct him. This Golden Serpent managed to take the Human Ascenders away amidst the tight siege by the Fox Clan; there were only two possibilities.

One, it received orders from their Demon Ancestor to come and take them away; the other, that it defeated all the Great Demons of the Fox Clan. Either possibility was beyond their ability to interfere with.

And the Human Ascenders had also realized that their destination was Spirit City, filling their hearts with confusion.

In the end, it was Chen Yuhuan who folded her hands in salute and asked, “Senior, are we heading to Spirit City?”

Lin Yi merely nodded slightly, without a word, which left the Ascenders somewhat puzzled—an individual of the Demon Tribe heading to Spirit City, what for? Were they going to be set free, or was he planning to boast his might in front of Spirit City?

However, given the identity of this Golden Serpent as a member of the Demon Tribe, it seemed impossible that he would just let them, members of the Human race, go freely. Wouldn’t that be an empty trip without any gain, also incurring the wrath of the powerful Fox Clan?

As for demonstrating his might with them, given the dominance displayed by this Serpent, he surely wouldn’t stoop to such action.

They had been constantly pursued since ascending and had no means at all to find out news about the Spirit Profound Realm or even seen the faces of other cultivators from the realm.

It seemed that they would only understand what this Golden Serpent intended to do once they reached Spirit City.

Traveling in the form of a Jiao Dragon, Lin Yi had taken more than twenty days to arrive using various techniques. Now, returning at a much slower pace, carrying a few people via Sword Control—despite the speed boost from his title, he was unable to use his other methods.

Thus, it took nearly two months before they reached Sword Edge Spirit City, which was still under attack by the Demon Tribe.

Lin Yi paid no attention to it, heading directly above Sword Edge Spirit City where he could traverse the City Protection Array at will.

However, just then, from within Sword Edge Spirit City, a striking woman suddenly flew out. Gazing at one person on the Flying Sword, she slowly said, “Yuhuan.”
