Chapter 720: Chapter 631: Direct Capture, Peril on All Sides (Combined Chapter) _2
The human-shaped sword continued to fly towards Lou Yun, accelerating once again.
In an instant, it reached a terrifying twenty times the speed of sound, with no intention of stopping until he was slain.
“Not good!”
Lu Yun’s expression changed dramatically as he swiftly retreated, but how could his speed match that of the human-shaped sword?
Without a doubt, the magic curtain guarding the Spirit Platform was easily penetrated by the human-shaped sword, which then pierced through Lu Yun’s defensive spiritual artifact, protective spirit essence, and even his body.
With a ’bang,’ the body of this master at the peak of the Fourth Layer of the Spirit Platform shattered, and Lou Yi proudly killed him on the spot!
“The Fourth Layer of the Spirit Platform is nothing special after all.”
Having single-handedly killed someone at the Fourth Layer of the Spirit Platform, Lou Yi’s confidence soared, knowing that his strength had ascended another level.
If he were to return to the main world now, he would be a true giant, invincible without a Golden Core.
He gathered his thoughts and helped his teammates to kill and clear out the remaining cultivators in Lu Yun’s team.
“Spare us! We have never targeted you; it was all Lu Yun’s idea!”
“We are fellow members of the Human Race. Why must we fight against each other?”
The cultivators in Lu Yun’s team scrambled to flee, but were relentlessly pursued by Lin Xuan and others, finding no suitable escape.
Thus, they began to beg for mercy, hoping the opponents would soften.
“Fellow Daoist Liu, do you remember me? We entered the Abyss together.” A young-looking Water Element cultivator, dressed in a sky-blue Daoist robe with Two Layers of the Spirit Platform cultivation, spoke.
Lou Yi remembered him as the highest-cultivated newcomer who volunteered to join Lu Yun’s team.
“Fellow Daoist Liu, I just joined his team and have no deep ties with him.
If you spare me, I can join your team!” The young male cultivator quickly said, eyes full of the desire to live.
Lou Yi hesitated slightly, then shook his head: “Sorry.”
Transforming his fist into a claw, five dark red blades tore through the sky, killing the newcomer on the spot.
He dared not gamble on human nature, nor wanted to leave himself or his teammates with potential threats.
Many times, a person’s fate is determined when choosing sides, with no right or wrong, just destiny.
With Lou Yi’s addition, and the Golden Evil Child possessing Fourth Layer of the Spirit Platform cultivation, they quickly defeated all these cultivators, at most at the peak of the Third Level of the Spirit Platform.
Lou Yi gained over five thousand points of energy.
Additionally, they divided among the team the various magic treasures, talismans, elixirs, and cultivation materials from these cultivators.
“Indeed, wealth doesn’t come without daring, and fortune favors the bold.” After tallying the gains, everyone in the team wore satisfied smiles.
“We should leave now, but to which district should we head?” the yellow-faced man, Qin Dong, asked.
Lin Xuan suggested, “Chen Cheng from Xinsu District is a righteous person and well-related to us. Can we seek him out?”
Elder Gui shook his head: “Xinsu District is too close to Shisu District; we should find a further district.”
“In Weisu District, I have a distant cousin there, who is also Xuan’er’s distant uncle. We can go to him,” said Ding Shiniang after pondering.
“I have an elder in my clan who’s been in Fangsu District for over a hundred years, experienced, and can save us many detours,” He Shu-li offered another suggestion.
“What about heading to Xusu District? Although we have no acquaintances there,
its abundance of Heaven and Earth Wonders ranks among the top in all Human Race districts,” Qin Dong proposed a different opinion.
Finally, everyone looked at Lou Yi.
This mysterious and powerful martial artist in their eyes, they wanted to hear his thoughts.
Lou Yi had a sudden impulse and immediately used his fortune-telling talent.
“My intuition tells me that there are opportunities for breakthroughs in Fangsu District,” Lou Yi stated slowly.
This was certainly true.
But more importantly, he had just calculated that there might be members of the Corpse-Driving Sect in Fangsu District.
“Well, then we’ll go to Fangsu District!” Lin Xuan, who greatly trusted Lou Yi, immediately exclaimed.
“Fangsu District lies to the north. To get there, we must cross seven other districts, including those guarded by the Demon Clan,” Elder Gui hesitated for a moment.
But since Lou Yi mentioned that there were breakthrough opportunities there, he didn’t oppose.
Once the decision was made, they quickly took action and immediately set off north.
Before departing, Lou Yi activated his division talent again, tearing off an arm.
It transformed into a nude male figure exactly like him.
“Clone, you must constantly absorb belief power in this Fogless District to strengthen yourself.
Once you’ve gained enough self-defense ability, come find us,” Lou Yi instructed.
“No problem, master,” Lou Yi’s clone nodded with a smile.
Lou Yi chose to leave his clone behind to absorb as much belief power as possible and recover combat strength quickly.
Otherwise, accompanying them through other areas of the Abyss would yield no belief power.
Once the clone returns to peak state, it could battle against the Fifth Layer of the Spirit Platform, one of Lou Yi’s crucial trump cards.
…
At this moment, outside a concealed cave countless miles away from Shisu District, a group of cultivators surrounded it with hostile expressions.
“Kuang Xiao, hand over that Corpse-Driving Sect fellow quickly!”
“Fellow Daoists, Fellow Daoist Bi has never offended you, so why force us?” Inside the encirclement, an elderly man with a black soft-capped headdress and a gaunt appearance advised.
“Enough nonsense, just hand him over!” A purple-robed cultivator with a scar on his left cheek sneered,
“We suspect he has colluded with the Demon Clan, harming our Human Race’s interests, so we must capture him for questioning. Are you shielding him?”
