The Path of Survivor begins with obtaining titles

Chapter 700: Chapter 350: Confrontation with Invincible East’s Clone_2
 

“Oh, Eastern Daoist Friend, let us see how resolute you are, and whether you are as invincible as your name suggests. If you satisfy me, I shall agree to your request,” Lin Yi said with hands behind his back, his tone light and breezy.

Invincible East nodded, “Then please forgive my offense.”

As her words ended, the aura around her grew increasingly powerful, and so too did Lin Yi’s.

At this spectacle, the Monster Beasts attacking below dared not linger any longer, scattering and retreating instantly, even without a command from the Void Refinement Leader.

The Void Refinement Demonic Beast of the Golden Peng Clan in charge of this assault quickly issued the order to retreat. The confrontation between two at the Refining Void Realm was not something they could resist.

Moreover, one of them was the Golden Serpent, who at the Refining Void Realm could wield the strength of the Body Fusion Realm; this time, even amidst the heavy encirclement of the Fox Clan, he managed to save the Human Ascenders, proving tremendously powerful.

The other was a Human Cultivator at the Refining Void Realm, and just by the name Invincible East, one could tell she was no ordinary person.

At this moment, the Fusion Cultivators guarding Sword Edge Spirit City also had to make an appearance, clasping their fists in salute, “Esteemed Daoist friends, may I request that you move the battlefield further away to prevent harm to the innocent people within Spirit City?”

Even though the City Protection Array of Spirit City was incredibly strong, the outcome of the clash between these two Refining Void experts was unpredictable.

The Golden Serpent had the strength to fight against the Fox Demon at the Fusion Realm a hundred years ago, and as for our Human race’s Invincible East, it was hard to imagine that she only ascended a mere six hundred years ago and advanced from Divinity Transformation to Refining Void.

Immortal cultivators at the Divinity Transformation have a lifespan of two thousand years. Many excellent Immortal cultivators of Huashen cultivate for seven or eight hundred years before advancing to Refining Void. Even with high talent and ample resources, it usually takes over seven hundred years.

To have advanced to the Refining Void in just over six hundred years, over nine realms, equates to breaking through a minor realm every seventy years or so, truly inconceivable.

Invincible East is a distinguished disciple of the Tai Xuan Dao Palace, held in high regard, while Long Ao, it is rumored, descended from the Immortal Realm. The Golden Serpent even received a Token from the Great Tribulation Expert and Supreme Elder Yang Tianhong. He could not possibly lend his aid to either side but could only watch from the sidelines, awaiting the outcome.

Lin Yi and Invincible East exchanged a glance and both nodded, “Very well, take these Ascenders into the city first. We shall return once we are done.”

The Fusion Cultivator agreed and led Chen Huanyu and the others towards the Spirit City.

“Sect Hierarch, Elder Long, Yu Huan requests that you limit the extent of your fight. I will wait in the city for your return,” Chen Huanyu said to the pair, clasping her fists in salute.

She had neither the means nor the strength to stop their clash.

“Long Daoist Friend, shall we move to that mountain over there?” Invincible East suggested, pointing to a distant mountain.

“Very well,” Lin Yi nodded and instantly transformed into a Golden Serpent, soaring towards the distant hills.

This mountain harbored a Fox Hill Base populated by Fox Demons, with numerous graves filled with Human Cultivators and members of the Demon Tribe. Some had died on the battlefield, while others, still living, were refined by the Fox Clan into the living dead, constantly providing Yin Evil Qi for their cultivation.

Lin Yi had perceived this through the Eye of Emptiness while traversing the sky; some Void Refinement Fox Demons were stationed here, and with their enchanting powers, even those at the Fusion Realm did not dare to enter rashly.

After reaching the hills, Lin Yi and Invincible East both disregarded the Yin Evil Qi radiating around them and stood firm, beginning to use their Divine Skills.

Invincible East had inherited a Yin Nascent Soul and possessed the power of Dark Elements. Lin Yi, having received the fortune of three types of energy, decided not to use the Heavenly Yang Energy but rather the Earthly Yin Energy, intending to see the outcome of its confrontation with the Yin Nascent Soul’s Dark Elements.

For a moment, an aura even darker and colder than the Yin Evil Qi of the Fox Hill Base enveloped the summit.

Invincible East wielded the Dark Elements of the Fire Attribute, containing the Red Lotus fire, which seemed like hellfire, emitting a chilling aura.

Lin Yi’s Earthly Yin Energy, being the ultimate in pure Yin Qi, emerged from within him, moving towards the flames.

After the two attack methods met, a powerful shockwave erupted. Under their control, the formidable might emitted by the two attacks almost entirely reached the base at Fox Hill below.

The foxes inside hadn’t had the chance to escape when they were instantly turned to ashes by the relentless flames and the might of the extreme Yin Qi, while the innocent human cultivators and members of the Demon Tribe remained unharmed.

As for the Void Refinement Fox Demons inside, they only managed to hold out for a moment before howling in unwillingness, perishing and dissipating into the path.

Lin Yi, who possessed the capability to exert the strength of the late stage of Body Fusion, while Dongfang Bubai had a Yin Nascent Soul and Dark Elements. Even if he couldn’t compare to his real body, he could at least exhibit strength close to that of Fusion.

On the city walls of Sword Edge Spirit City in the distance, many Guards were gathered, probing the situation of these mountains with their Divine Sense. They saw blinding flashes erupting from the mountaintops, followed by powerful auras reaching them.

Even though they were far away, they could feel the formidable power of the resistance forces, and the resulting shockwaves were even causing the nearby lands to tremble continuously.

Subsequently, Dongfang Bubai used the Power of Decay while Lin Yi countered with the Golden Human Energy, testing his three types of energies. After all, there was no better sparring tool than his own incarnation.

The battle lasted for several Hours, and the powerful fluctuations in auras prevented the nearby Demon Tribe from daring to approach and observe.

Chen Huanyu atop the city walls of Spirit City felt worried as she watched the constant flashes of light at the far distance. She did not want either side to get hurt.

She felt that the Golden Serpent was not a cold and heartless person, but like her own Hierarch, possessed a softer side and a heart that wished to protect others.

Other Ascenders hoped for the victory of Dongfang Bubai, as this meant a significant chance for them to remain among the human race.

Although the Golden Serpent was their lifesaver, the future was uncertain if they followed him to the Demon Tribe. Moreover, they definitely wouldn’t be as comfortable among the Demon Tribe as they were with the human race.

Lin Yi alternated between the three energies of Heaven, Earth, and Man in his tactics against Dongfang Bubai. The outcome goes without saying. Even if he kept his strength at the same level, the three energies were enough to overwhelm the Dark Elements.

Such was the result of a qualitative change; the energies of Heaven, Earth, and Man were of a higher tier compared to the Dark Elements within the Nascent Soul.

Finally, after several Hours of combat, the fight came to a halt. Lin Yi took the opportunity to conduct afterlife rituals for the innocent human cultivators and members of the Demon Tribe buried within Fox Hill, and in the end, he incinerated their bodies with the Heavenly Yang Energy.

Of course, he also conducted rituals for the deceased Fox Demons. Free Virtue Points not taken would be wasted.

Immediately after, they engaged in one final confrontation, unleashing immense power that turned the sky above the mountains dark.

Once everything had settled, Lin Yi and Dongfang Bubai returned to Sword Edge Spirit City together. By this time, the Demon Tribe below and the people of Sword Edge Spirit City could see that Dongfang Bubai appeared weakened, with a trace of fresh blood at the corner of his mouth. Long Ao wanted to offer support but was directly refused.

Besides Chen Huanyu, the hearts of other Ascenders sank. From the state of the two figures, even a fool could discern who had emerged victorious. Were they really going to the Demon Tribe now?

Upon approaching Spirit City, Chen Huanyu instructed the Void Refinement Golden Guard to open the Formation, and she immediately rushed out, arriving beside Dongfang Bubai to support him, channeling her own Spiritual Energy, “Sect Hierarch, are you alright?”

Lin Yi waved his hand with a smile, showing some respect, “Don’t worry. Your Hierarch has only drained his Spiritual Power and suffered some minor injuries, that’s all. An opponent who dares to fight me to the brink for his disciples, I wouldn’t wish to harm.”

“Thank you, senior, for your mercy,” Chen Huanyu quickly thanked with a bow.

“You simply took advantage of the powerful Bloodline of the Demon Tribe,” Dongfang Bubai said somewhat discontentedly.

Lin Yi smiled faintly, “Very well, after your Cultivation levels increase, we can battle again. Today’s fight with you has been most satisfying. These Human Ascenders are now yours to command; I’m heading back.”

With that, his figure flashed as he directly crossed the City Protection Array of Sword Edge Spirit City, entering it and leaving behind only a phrase, “Let me use the Teleportation Array of your Human Spirit City once more.”
