I Can Travel between Two Worlds

Every so often, Lin Chen would stop briefly to rest.

Thus, after spending about a two-hour period, he managed to reach an underground refuge a thousand miles deep.

After hiding in this deep underground refuge, Lin Chen finally exhaled a sigh of relief.

The sense of safety returned...

"Even a Nascent Soul True Man couldn’t possibly find this deep underground..."

Lin Chen was very confident in this aspect.

But the problem now was that he didn’t know what was happening outside.

Hiding in the refuge naturally posed no life-threatening danger, but the feeling of being imprisoned in such a place was something Lin Chen never wanted to experience again.

"If it’s a year or so, it’s fine, but hiding for three to five years would be troublesome..."

Lin Chen touched his chin, pondering how to escape this place.

This time, he took a risk to kill the Ghost-Eyed Old Monster, even alarming the Nascent Soul Stage demon head.

The best course of action would naturally be to escape directly back to the Yanlai Realm.

"Traveling on the surface is definitely not an option... No matter how fast I am, I’ll be caught."

"It seems the only way is to escape underground."

Lin Chen opened his communication wristband, projecting a virtual screen in front of him.

On this screen, it recorded the positions of the eighty-two refuges Lin Chen had dug over the past year.

Each refuge was a hundred miles apart.

Underground, it’s very easy to lose one’s sense of direction.

But Lin Chen had installed a positioning system in each refuge, allowing him to precisely know the location of each refuge.

So, the next step was simple.

He just needed to use the Earth Escape Technique to constantly travel between the refuges.

However, the distance was quite far; from Lin Chen’s current position to the Yanlai Realm border, it was nearly eight thousand miles.

"Ah, it seems I’ll have to dig tunnels for quite a while again..."

"But it’s also good, to have the passageways between the underground refuges opened in advance. In the future, traveling between these places will be unnoticed and much safer..."

Lin Chen thought silently to himself.

Lin Chen didn’t need to dig through all the way when connecting the refuges.

He only needed to dig a small space every few thousand feet.

After all, with the Earth Escape Technique, he could traverse underground without fully digging through.

Most importantly, in this way, there were actually no roads between the refuges, with large amounts of soil separating them.

These were secret passages belonging solely to Lin Chen.

Thinking of this, Lin Chen hesitated no longer and began heading towards the next refuge.

After roughly the time of several dozen breaths, Lin Chen traveled a thousand or two feet underground, simultaneously clearing out a small box-like space and placed a locator within.

In this way, Lin Chen escaped the borders of the Purple Smoke Country.

...

At the same time, at the location where Lin Chen and Ghost-Eyed Old Monster just fought.

A mass of black mist descended from the sky.

Finally condensing slowly into a humanoid shape, landing on the ground.

The Blood Pupil Old Demon had arrived!

The Blood Pupil Old Demon was incredibly old, his body covered with age spots and wrinkles.

His hair was gray and almost gone. His entire figure was so withered and thin it appeared skeletal.

If one got close, a faint stench could be detected from him.

This is extremely rare among Cultivators.

For Cultivators, appearance reflects the heart, and they stay youthful forever, only when the heart ages would the appearance grow old.

But the Blood Pupil Old Demon, who had lived for thousands of years, was someone long overdue for death, thus he was so decrepit.

He stood at the scene of the battle and sniffed with his nose.

Then his eyes flared with rage.

"Demon-Suppressing Celestial Thunder! It’s that group of blind fools from the Demon-Suppressing Temple..."

The Blood Pupil Old Demon glanced around a few times, then frowned slightly.

"No, those one hundred and eight Martial Monks from the Demon-Suppressing Temple, and that brat named Li Tianhan... wouldn’t be able to contend against Ghost Eye!"

"Could it be that the abbot of the Demon-Suppressing Temple came?"

After some careful thought, the Blood Pupil Old Demon shook his head.

"Impossible, if a Nascent Soul True Man stepped in here, I would definitely be able to sense it..."

"So, who could it be?"

The Blood Pupil Old Demon stood still, then murmured softly:

"The Nether Ghosts have come, Night Parade of Hundred Demons... Ghost Souls of heaven and earth, heed my command..."

As the Blood Pupil Old Demon cast the Technique, ghost souls in the world began to gather again.

He seemed to hear the soft whispers of ghostly souls around him.

After listening for a moment, the Blood Pupil Old Demon’s face showed anger.

"Again... it’s the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect!?"

"Where did such a sect come from, to dare ruin my plans time and again!"

"Jade Belt City, it was them... Wild Wolf Sect, also them..."

"Now, Ghost Eye’s death is still their doing!"

Taking a deep breath, the Blood Pupil Old Demon calmed himself down.

He attempted to summon Ghost-Eyed Old Monster’s remnant soul.

But the remnant soul of Ghost-Eyed Old Monster had been devoured by the Jade Ghost, leaving no trace.

"Remnant soul extinguished, not entering the cycle of reincarnation... They’ve left no stone unturned!"

"A bunch of self-proclaimed Righteous folks... Since that’s how it is, don’t blame me, the patriarch, for being ruthless!"

The Blood Pupil Old Demon first performed a Secret Technique to capture the aura in the world.

After several attempts, he quickly locked onto "Xu Shi’s" aura and tracked it all the way for hundreds of miles, arriving near a refuge.

"Strange, the aura disappeared around here..."

"Where could he have run off to?"

The Blood Pupil Old Demon furrowed his brow, his Divine Sense at the Nascent Soul Stage spreading like a tide.

He scrutinized everything within a radius of hundreds of miles.

But still, nothing...

Absolutely no trace!

"Ha, so he actually ran off?"

"But well, the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect it is then... I’ll remember this!"

"When my Ghost-Exorcising Sect’s army sweeps across Qing State, that’s when you will meet your demise!"

The Blood Pupil Old Demon couldn’t swallow this anger, his eyes filled with malice.

Turning into a mass of black mist, he quickly returned to the Spirit Beast Sect.

On the same day.

In a grand hall, key figures of the Demon Path gathered.

Blood Pupil Old Demon sat in the high seat, his voice gloomy:

"No more waiting! Send down orders, suppress the entire sector of the Righteous Alliance..."

"Within half a year, I want the complete annihilation of the Purple Smoke Realm!"
