Chapter 104: Face-to-Face, Goodbye Bai Ruoxue

You quickly turned around, only to see several Immortal Slaves at the ninth level of Tribulation Crossing attacking you.

You were shocked and somewhat puzzled.

You remembered that in the previous simulations, there was no mention of any ninth-level Tribulation Crossing experts at this branch of the Immortal Arrival Sect.

Could it be that these ninth-level Tribulation Crossing Immortal Slaves had been hiding all along, only to reveal themselves at this critical moment?

Suddenly, it dawned on you that this might indeed be the case.

After all, Shen Wutian, the founder of the Immortal Arrival Sect, although hiding at the headquarters, still had tasks to complete for the great powers of the Immortal Realm.

He certainly couldn't let this important branch fall, so it made sense to leave some ninth-level Tribulation Crossing experts to guard it.

You sighed softly, "I was careless."

You felt a bit regretful; all the plans and preparations you made were now in vain, and you wouldn't get to eat that dragon meat.

Understanding your predicament, you didn't think further.

You quickly used your one-time talent: Face-to-Face, and silently chanted Bai Ruoxue's name in your heart.

You felt a tremor all over, and your figure instantly disappeared from the spot.

This made everyone at the Immortal Arrival Sect frown, and Shen Wuyou immediately headed to the headquarters to report the situation to Shen Wutian.

You were unaware of the reactions at the Immortal Arrival Sect.

Because you had already appeared in front of Bai Ruoxue.

However, it seemed your timing was off.

At this moment, you saw Bai Ruoxue in front of you swinging her sword in a fierce slash.

Behind you, a Fire Phoenix was spewing flames.

Anyone with a brain could tell that Bai Ruoxue was in a fierce battle with the Fire Phoenix.

You had appeared right in the middle of their battle, and both attacks were perfectly aimed at you.

"WTF," you cursed instinctively.

Was this going to be the end for you?

With a loud "bang," you were hit by both attacks.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, you used Divine Dao to convert all your spiritual energy into primordial energy, enhancing your physical defense. The two attacks didn't kill you.

But taking both attacks head-on still left you covered in blood.

At this moment, Bai Ruoxue also realized what had happened.

If you had been a Chosen with great talent but weak strength, things might have turned out differently.

In the end, you were left alone.

You thought that since you had already left the Southern Regions, you could just lay low and develop without relying on anyone.

A month later, your injuries were fully healed.

You recovered so quickly because, although the injuries seemed severe, they were all physical.

You practiced Martial Dao, so your body was inherently strong, and with the recovery power of the Yimu Divine Body, you healed quite rapidly.

Once fully recovered, you began to consider your next steps.

Ultimately, you decided that besides cultivating, you also needed to explore the outside world more.

Having finally left the Southern Regions, you felt it was time to understand the overall situation of the Nine Mystic Realm.

If possible, you wanted to see the other regions.

Especially, you wanted to know which regions the gaps in the sealing formation of the Southern Regions connected to.

In the thirty-first year, you traveled through the Eastern Regions, killing many demonic beasts.

In the thirty-fifth year, your Martial Dao cultivation broke through to the seventh layer of the Transcendent Realm.

In five years, you hunted numerous demonic beasts, using your Gluttonous Beast Physique to devour them, which allowed you to advance by one layer in your Martial Dao cultivation.

Actually, this speed wasn't faster than when you were in the Southern Regions.

After all, in the Southern Regions, you had obtained a lot of resources by robbing the Immortal Arrival Sect.

However, this speed wasn't slow either, and you were quite satisfied.

In the forty-second year, your Martial Dao cultivation broke through to the eighth layer of the Transcendent Realm.

By this time, you had traveled through half of the Eastern Regions.

You witnessed the prosperity of the Eastern Regions, where almost everyone knew about cultivation.

Every few years, the major sects would open their doors to recruit disciples.

It could be said that as long as one had a bit of talent, almost everyone had the opportunity to enter the path of cultivation.

Seeing this, you felt sorry for the people of the Southern Regions.

In the Southern Regions, not to mention everyone cultivating, even inquiring about cultivators would get you killed by the Immortal Slaves of the Immortal Arrival Sect.

The comparison was truly stark!
