NOVEL NEXT Chapter 917: Luoshen Mountain
After winning the ambush against the Demon Prison World, the Wanling Realm army hasn't encountered any major battles.
After suffering defeat, the Demon Prison World army has not engaged in a direct confrontation with the Wanling Realm.
The battles between the two realms have mostly been small-scale skirmishes.
Both sides have had their victories and losses.
During this time, Lin Yi, as the Child of the World, naturally had many attacks, and each time he struck, he would kill experts from the Demon Prison World, returning laden with battle merits.
Lin Yi displayed his talents, rampaging through the Tianxuan Ancient Star, making the experts of the Demon Prison World tremble with fear!
However, during this period, Lin Yi's movements were closely watched by the Devil God's Son and the Demon Prison World Envoy.
During this time, the Devil God's Son wanted to make a move several times, but was always stopped by the Demon Prison World Envoy.
"Why don't you let me take action and kill this boy to avenge my grievances?"
The Devil God's Son was very dissatisfied with the Demon Prison World Envoy's obstruction.
If it weren't for the other's constant obstruction, he would've already made a move to take Lin Yi's head and wash away the shame of the past.
The Demon Prison World Envoy's expression was very indifferent, saying, "Even if Your Highness the Devil God's Son fights with abandon, do you have a guaranteed victory?"
"Be honest, what are the odds of winning?"
When asked this by the Demon Prison World Envoy, the Devil God's Son pondered, "Although he doesn't have divine blood, his combat power is unexpectedly strong..."
"Even if I give it my all, it would be a sixty-forty split at best!"
Unexpectedly, the Demon Prison World Envoy just smiled and shook his head, saying, "Sixty-forty is assuming Lin Yi has no hidden means."
"As the Child of the World, who knows if this person has trump cards?"
"That means, at best, both sides would suffer great losses."
Although the Devil God's Son looked displeased, he didn't argue.
Lin Yi had indeed fought with him, and indeed, Lin Yi was undoubtedly a formidable enemy!
He truly didn't have a guarantee of victory!
"In that case, let the people from the other three great worlds take action instead!"
The Demon Prison World Envoy's eyes suddenly flashed with a glint of light, saying, "Messages from Luoshen Mountain indicate new discoveries; it seems the relics of the Ancient God are about to emerge—at such a critical time, there must be no mistakes."
Luoshen Mountain!
At the sound of these three words, the Devil God's Son's eyes also lit up. While the Boundary War is important, Luoshen Mountain is of paramount importance!
Legend has it that Luoshen Mountain is the Land of Fallen Gods, holding the relics of the Ancient God, and it's no small matter.
Compared to the opportunities at Luoshen Mountain, killing Lin Yi and avenging past shames doesn't seem as important.
"The armies of the Heavenly Witch World, Mysterious Corpse World, and Battle Beast World have all gone to Luoshen Mountain to find the entrance to the Ancient God's relics."
"How could my Demon Prison World lag behind in this matter?"
The Demon Prison World Envoy said.
The Devil God's Son nodded, "Then we'll have to let this boy off easy."
Although he was very unhappy about it, once he obtained the Ancient God's relics, he would surely reach a new height, and then, killing Lin Yi would be as easy as turning a hand.
"Let's go, leave a small force here to draw the Wanling Realm people out, while the main army proceeds immediately to the Divine Burial Mountain!"
The Devil God's Son said harshly.
The Demon Prison World Envoy smiled and said, "That suits me well."
After finishing, the two turned and left the place.
...
However, the strong of the Wanling Realm were by no means fools. It was impossible for them not to notice the movements of the Demon Prison World army, being held here by the enemy's small forces.
The enemy had only left for two days before being discovered by the scouts of the Wanling Realm army.
"Reporting to the Boundary Envoy and the Child of the World."
A scout came before Lin Yi and the Primordial Spirit Envoy, knelt to the ground, and reported, "The Demon Prison World army has left this place for a place called Luoshen Mountain."
Upon hearing this, an expression of sudden clarity appeared on Lin Yi's face, "No wonder we've been encountering small skirmishes these days; it turns out the main force has sneaked away."
After injuring that Devil God's Son in front of the two armies, Lin Yi thought that the Devil God's Son would definitely seize the opportunity for revenge, yet unexpectedly, this person could endure so well, with no sign of them for several days.
It seems he underestimated the Devil God's Son, as this guy really knows how to bide his time.
But for the opponent to suppress their plans for so long, it's certain they're up to no good.
"Luoshen Mountain?"
Upon hearing this name, the Primordial Spirit Envoy couldn't help but frown, apparently knowing something about the place.
"Problematic?"
Lin Yi noticed the anomaly and immediately inquired.
The Primordial Spirit Envoy nodded slightly, saying, "Previously the Moon God should have told you that this Ancient Star battlefield is actually a burial place of gods, right?"
"The Moon God did indeed mention it."
Lin Yi nodded, then a light flashed in his eyes, "Could it be that this Luoshen Mountain is the place the Moon God referred to as the Ancient God's Land of Fallen?"
"Exactly."
"It's precisely this Luoshen Mountain."
The Primordial Spirit Envoy nodded, "The Boundary Envoys of Canglan World and Water Element Realm have also sent messages that there are relics of the Ancient God about to emerge from Luoshen Mountain!"
"The armies of the Heavenly Witch World, Mysterious Corpse World, and Battle Beast World have gathered near Luoshen Mountain and sealed off the entire place."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yi's expression changed immediately, "Doesn't that mean the Ancient God relics are about to fall into the hands of the enemy?"
"That's not necessarily the case."
The Primordial Spirit Envoy shook his head, "Luoshen Mountain has an Ancient Prohibition, only allowing Saints under a hundred years old to enter."
"There aren't many people in the armies of various worlds who meet this condition."
"The experts of Canglan World and Water Element Realm have already found another entrance to Luoshen Mountain."
"We can enter the depths of Luoshen Mountain from the entrance guarded by both realms."
Saints under a hundred years old?
Reaching the level of a Saint usually means being over a hundred years old; successfully becoming a Saint under a hundred would absolutely qualify as a supreme Heavenly Pride.
Thus, not everyone can enter Luoshen Mountain; only Saints under a hundred years old can step foot!
The Boundary Envoys of each world have all exceeded a hundred years of age, which means all the Boundary Envoys will be excluded from entering Luoshen Mountain.
Furthermore, at least eight to nine out of ten people will be filtered out, with no qualification to touch the Ancient God relics.
But this is a good thing for Lin Yi and the Wanling Realm.
If it came down to comparing the combat power of each world's armies, the Wanling Realm would definitely not be considered strong. Even the Demon Prison World, which previously ambushed the Wanling Realm, has a much stronger army than Wanling Realm.
Moreover, the Wanling Realm consists of only three great worlds, yet they are to match an opponent's four worlds?
The total troop strength gap between the two great camps would only be greater.
But now, Luoshen Mountain strictly limits the cultivation and age of those who can enter. The two great camps are comparing the Saint-level combat power under a hundred years old, essentially the strength of new generation's Heavenly Pride Saints, allowing Wanling Realm to compete!
At least, the gap isn't that large anymore!
Lin Yi is still confident in his own strength.
