Chapter 758: Chapter: Return to the Spirit Profound Realm
Hearing Zhang Dao Xuan’s words, Lin Yi nodded slightly, “Based on my senses, that seems to be the case. Also, don’t call me senior, my name is Long Ao; you can call me Brother Long.”
After all, the Zhang Dao Xuan before him was the original form of his own master, and the minimal respect due to him should be maintained.
“Alright then, I won’t be polite, Brother Long. What should we do to get out of here?” Zhang Dao Xuan asked straightforwardly, addressing him as Brother Long, and then inquiring about their exit strategy.
Though he was known as a Dan God in the Spirit Profound Realm and received respect from many, in this Demon race’s world, he was like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.
He could only rely on the Long Ao before him to have any chance of surviving.
“Why should we leave, since they don’t want us to go, let’s just stay here,” Lin Yi said with a faint smile, unwilling to be completely led by the nose.
He once thought that the yellow humanoid demon had other means, which was why he had been so vigilant. Now, it seemed he could relax because if that humanoid demon had powerful means to annihilate them, there would be no need to block the exit like this.
Blocking the exit just proved that the humanoid demon was not confident it could kill him instantly; hence, it blocked the exit to trap him here, unable to leave.
Zhang Dao Xuan also understood instantly, “Brother Long’s words have awakened one like me from a dream. Its blocking the exit signifies its lack of strength to kill us.”
A look of admiration appeared on his face; Brother Long was indeed powerful to force an unseen enemy to resort to such tactics.
Being chased nearly to his death in the Demon world after being discovered, and now following Brother Long, he hadn’t seen a single demon beast.
“Indeed, let’s go, Brother Zhang. Where did you find that Demonic Light Grass? We have nothing else to do; we might as well gather some spoils of war,” Lin Yi said with a nod, then suggested.
He was not going to let the humanoid demon maintain control. Although he could keep following the guidance of the fixed fruit line allowing the humanoid demon to shut down many exits of the Dark Abyss, it was not very meaningful.
Perhaps closing the outposts that branched out from the Dark Abyss might change the surrounding environment, but it was a temporary solution, not a cure.
What made the Demon race formidable and terrifying was the Demon Domain behind them, containing an endless number of demon beasts. Even if the Human race temporarily seized some territory, they couldn’t hold it forever.
Instead of wasting time playing the door-blocking game with this humanoid demon, it was better to take this opportunity to loot some spoils of war and kill more demon beasts, allowing the Primordial Chaos Energy to absorb and increase his own strength.”
“Do you recognize me?” Zhang Dao Xuan, surprised, asked.
In his knowledge, the person before him was definitely at the Immortal level. Among those demon beasts that chased him, most exhibited the strength of the Tribulation Transcendence Realm, with one immensely powerful being, similar to a Mahayana Cultivator and infinitely close to a True Immortal.
Even if a Mahayana Cultivator came, they wouldn’t be able to effortlessly annihilate his pursuers as Long Ao had, not to mention the invisible enemy.
Although he couldn’t sense the presence of this enemy at all, Long Ao had no need to deceive him, as a demon beast couldn’t possibly pretend to be a Human Cultivator to trick him. They could easily kill him without wasting time.
“Some things we can talk about after we get out,” Lin Yi said with a mysterious smile, and then he led Zhang Dao Xuan towards the location of the Demonic Light Grass.
Full of questions, Zhang Dao Xuan wondered about his rescue. He hadn’t told anyone about his visit to the Demon world, yet this Brother Long seemed to have entered specifically to rescue him.
He didn’t have many friends in the Spirit Profound Realm, let alone a life-and-death ally. To have an Immortal-like powerful cultivator come to his rescue was not something anyone could manage.
Under Zhang Dao Xuan’s guidance, Lin Yi channelled the Primordial Chaos Energy, constantly traversing through the Demon Domain. Even though the laws of this Demon Domain were somewhat unique, the birth of all things couldn’t happen without Primordial Chaos Energy.
Even though this place was filled with Demonic Qi, it too originated from Primordial Chaos Energy. Chaos is the void and represents the possibility of generating all things.
Even if this world was artificially created, it couldn’t exist without the role of Primordial Chaos Energy, the basic substance that makes up the world.
As he journeyed, Lin Yi continuously exterminated the demon beasts he encountered. In his perception, these demon beasts were like mass-produced biological weapons with little Spiritual Wisdom, relying on devouring other demon beasts to enhance their strength.
After a successful devouring, some characteristics of the devoured demon beast would emerge on their body, leading to the strange and grotesque appearances of the demon beasts, much like the one near the True Immortal level, which was essentially a Stitched Monster.
That’s why, upon seeing the yellow humanoid demon, Lin Yi became vigilant. In a world full of weird and bizarre demon beasts, the sudden appearance of a humanoid entity – even if it wasn’t the ruler of this world – was undoubtedly tied to the Demon Domain.
Therefore, he showed no mercy in exterminating these demon beasts. If given the chance to escape from the Dark Abyss, it was unknown how many from the Human race would die or be devoured by them.
