He forgot about everything; the thought of retreat didn’t even come to mind as he knew if he dared to retreat, then he would have to bear the full-powered attack of Shen Yuan.
Gritting his teeth, he utilized his ultimate technique while burning his blood essence to power it. “DIE!!”
He pushed forward while the dual-dagger wielder also moved. His forehead was filled with sweat, he knew he would die if he dared to fight Shen Yuan alone, so without looking for a perfect ambush, he attacked Shen Yuan with his full-powered attack.
Shen Yuan looked at them appreciatively, “Good thought process, too bad everything is meaningless in front of absolute strength.”
The intensity of thunder in his sword increased as he infused a large amount of thunder Qi into it. Without using any technique, he swung his sword down slowly.
The greatsword-wielding cultivator gritted his teeth and met his sword head-on. Boom! His sword shook on contact before he coughed out a mouthful of blood from the damage.
Shen Yuan’s eyes flashed as he used Heavenly Thunder Palm to attack the dagger wielder head-on.
The dagger wielder was not that lucky, as he tried to trade damage for damage. Just as his dagger neared Shen Yuan’s heart, his palm connected with his chest. The dagger wielder’s eyes widened in horror as he felt an intense thunderbolt surge from his chest and leave from behind him.
The greatsword wielder blasted back from the impact, while the dagger wielder died on the spot. The survivor coughed out multiple mouthfuls of blood before looking at his companion’s dead body in horror.
He pointed his trembling finger towards Shen Yuan, “Y-y-you…w-will pay for this!”
Shen Yuan glanced at him, but before he could move to finish him off, the cultivator destroyed his own token. Light flashed where he was, and his body disappeared at once.
“Tsk, these tokens are troublesome.” He frowned slightly while looking at the spot where the man was lying. He fell into deep thought, thinking about ways to make the people stay.
Yue Lan had multiple solutions for it, but she decided to stay silent so Shen Yuan could figure it out on his own.
Xueyan jumped down from his shoulder and enlarged gradually before reaching the size of a 5-meter massive beast. Shen Yuan looked at her with curiosity, wondering what she wanted to do.
Xueyan didn’t keep him in suspense and swept the corpse of the dagger wielder into her mouth in one bite. The corpse became smaller while approaching her mouth before finally disappearing.
Shen Yuan’s eyes twitched, he knew she would eventually eat humans to strengthen herself, but he didn’t expect the day to come so soon.
Xueyan spat something out, and it landed in front of Shen Yuan. He looked at it and realized it was a spatial ring.
He used his water Qi to clean the ring before picking it up and scanning it with his consciousness. Upon closer inspection, he felt a seal on it, which was likely from the dagger wielder. He used a little more force to break the seal and gain access to it.
“Hmm… what a beggar.” He shook his head with disappointment and threw the ring inside his inventory. There were only a few pills and spirit stones for cultivation, and the rest of the treasures were of too low quality to enter his eyes.
Xueyan decreased her size and jumped back on his shoulder. He helplessly shook his head. “So, where should we head next?”
Xueyan continued pointing in the same direction. Shen Yuan curiously asked, “Huh? I thought you wanted to deal with them here only? Is there something deeper ahead?”
Xueyan nodded her head and sat down leisurely. Shen Yuan didn’t waste time and walked deeper into the forest.
“The space here seems more solid than the outside world’s. I might not even be able to teleport here for 100 meters, I need to be careful.” He closely felt the dense spatial fabric all around him.
It was multiple levels denser than the spatial fabric of the outside world, but he could still use his Spatial law to a limited level.
Soon after, they met another group of disciples, but they were from an Imperial Level power from the outside world instead of the Demonic Sect.
Shen Yuan stepped out from the trees, and the three disciples quickly looked at him. The three of them looked at him disdainfully once they assessed his cultivation base. But Shen Yuan didn’t waste his time, he destroyed their badges and sent them out.
“That’s another three…” he thought while taking out his token and looking at the number displayed on it—[5]
“Will something happen if I collect a certain number of points? And how do they even get the badges once they are destroyed inside?” He wondered while walking straight ahead.
Xueyan regretfully glanced back, looking at the clean group since she didn’t get to eat anything.
“Don’t worry, Xueyan, there will soon be food for you to eat.” He gently consoled her while listening to the rough breathing of a Beast Lord from afar.
‘Let’s see how I fare against a Beast Lord.’ His face lit up with a smile as he increased his pace.
Xueyan also looked ahead with excitement clear in her eyes. After passing a few bushes, they came in front of a massive beast with two elephant heads and a giant wolf’s body.
Shen Yuan paused, he had never seen such a beast before. “Is this a specialty of this Mystique Realm or a species from the outside world?”
He questioned seemingly to the air but didn’t get any response. Shaking his head, he flexed his sword.
“Come, let’s see what you are made of.” His body radiated intense battle intent as he could feel that the beast in front of him was one of the strongest opponents he had gotten to face up to now.
The Beast Lord was at the eighth level of the Dao Core Forming Realm, nearly at the peak of the stage.
It would have been an overlord in the entire Mystique Realm. The Beast Lord opened its eyes and looked at the intruder in his place.
HUMM
A low rumbling echoed from its mouth, its eyes flashed red as it looked at him. It slowly stood up and stared at Shen Yuan with a chilling gaze.
If any other disciple was here, he would have straight up fled since the beast had a special bloodline as well. It was one of the rare few with a Royal Grade bloodline here. In the outside world, it would have reached the Mortal Tribulation Realm, but in this Mystique Realm, it would eternally be limited to the Dao Core Forming Realm.
But it was a good thing that the beast had yet to reach that level. Otherwise, the old beasts that had reached this level would continue their accumulation and become stronger and stronger without breaking through.
Such beasts had the battle power of the Mortal Tribulation Realm while being in the Dao Core Forming Realm. But such beasts were rare even inside the Mystique Realm.
He didn’t pause for long and filled his sword with thunder Qi while using his Primordial Vessel Art to fortify the Qi.
