Chapter 632: Chapter 317: Tai Xuan Dao Palace
After arriving at the second city within the human race’s territory, Lin Yi did not leave the Transmission Hall but continued on to the next city. According to the route he had calculated, reaching Tai Xuan Spirit City required passing through four cities within the human race’s territory.
During the transfer, he once again presented Elder Peng’s token. Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed a Nascent Soul Cultivator responsible for checking qualifications in the Transmission Hall, who seemed to have an unusual expression.
He was not at all nervous. Apart from the Predict Crisis ability, according to the information he had gathered, while different forces existed within the cities of the human race, the teleportation arrays within the city were under the management of Tai Xuan Dao Palace.
It was possible that members of that organization had been implanted here, but they probably wouldn’t dare risk exposure by altering the direction of the teleportation. At most, they would send information back to members of their organization.
More importantly, with the Eye of Emptiness, he could see the deep control runes of the teleportation array. He could see the direction of teleportation from above.
Lin Yi memorized all the runes of the teleportation array he saw. With his expertise in formations, studying them for a while would reveal the method of control.
Today, when utilizing Predict Crisis, his inner thoughts were about the current teleportation route he was taking. Since the prediction indicated no danger, then there would be none.
Although during his ascension, Predict Crisis showed him a Fusion Cultivator dressed in black armor, a Huashen Ascender like himself was probably not someone he would dare to specifically come looking for.
Currently, the Human Clan of the Spirit Profound Realm, under the leadership of Tai Xuan Dao Palace, basically presented a united front against the demon crisis. Serious infighting could not occur; once it affected the overall situation of the human race against demons, Tai Xuan Dao Palace would mercilessly annihilate the culprits.
There was danger for a practitioner of Creation Arts like himself if exposed, and the same was true for the organization if it were revealed. They too would face reckoning by Tai Xuan Dao Palace.
However, Lin Yi did not have the leisure to report these people he had uncovered. He would wait until his strength reached the Body Fusion Realm, at which time, aside from Mahayana Cultivators who had undergone Crossing Tribulation, no one else would be a match for him.
Soon, he arrived at the fourth city within the human race’s territory, just one more transfer to go. As Lin Yi stepped out of the teleportation array, he heard a Huashen Cultivator guarding the array announcing the rules for teleporting to Tai Xuan Divine City.
Everyone must go through a detection formation to determine if they were human or demon. At the same time, they needed to prepare their Identity Jade for verification.
Lin Yi was not surprised. After all, Tai Xuan Divine City was the most central region for the human race and represented the last hope of humanity. It was only natural that they’d be cautious and not randomly teleport people in.
Just then, a group of Cultivators dressed in armor, with a gourd emblem on their chests, walked out of the Transmission Hall.
If not mistaken, these were likely the Spirit City Guards of Tai Xuan Divine City, for the gourd is seen by Cultivators as a symbol of the Way.
Lin Yi instantly understood their ploy — to create a semblance of coincidence and then test his strength at this location. As soon as he presented Elder Peng’s token, it would give them a pretext to speak. The authority represented by the token, and the killing intent it exuded, could not be ignored by anyone.
After pondering, he did not choose to avoid it. The identity of Invincible East was not the kind to shy away from trouble at its sight. Rather than wasting time wandering around the city, it was better to break this scheme directly.
Of course, he could choose to fly to Tai Xuan Divine City controlling a sword, yet teleportation was instantaneous while sword flight might take an entire day to reach the destination in the vast Spirit Profound Realm.
In the Heng Yuan World, one could visit many Sects within a day.
After deciding, Lin Yi took out Elder Peng’s bestowed token and said to a Huashen Cultivator guarding the teleportation array, “Fellow Daoist, I wish to go to Tai Xuan Divine City. Please arrange it for me.”
The Huashen Cultivator frowned slightly and was about to say something, but when he saw Elder Peng’s token, his face abruptly changed, and he hurriedly responded, “Fellow Daoist, since you possess Elder Peng’s token, of course you can. I will arrange it for you immediately.”
From the reactions of Disciples in the different city Transmission Halls upon seeing the token, they all addressed him as Elder Peng. It seems it was not only representing an Elder of Qinglian Spirit City, but perhaps he was also an Elder of Tai Xuan Dao Palace.
The armored Guards saw this and couldn’t help but feel a sense of secret delight, quickly stepping forward. A Void Refinement Cultivator among them spoke, “May I ask if you are the Ascender from Qinglian Spirit City coming to Tai Xuan Divine City for the Dao Palace’s test? We are the Spirit City Guards responsible for testing the strength of Ascenders. We received a message that you obtained Elder Peng’s bestowed token and are coming to Tai Xuan Divine City on your own. We didn’t expect to meet you here.”
Lin Yi nodded lightly, “Oh, that is quite the coincidence indeed.”
“Since it’s such a coincidence, how about we test you here in Green Sun City while you wait for the teleportation array? That way you won’t have to waste time going through the test again when you arrive at Tai Xuan Divine City,” the Void Refinement Cultivator suggested with a kindly smile.
“No need. Since I am almost at Tai Xuan Divine City, I will go to the Dao Palace for the test myself,” Lin Yi waved his hand and said. From this dialogue, it was clear that the opposing organization to the Creation Method had indeed infiltrated Tai Xuan Divine City.
