Chapter 587 - 419: Crossing Boundaries to Escape
"Peh, the cultivators of the Xuanxian Continent are truly full of malice. They’re even more wicked than Earthlings. It’s one thing they couldn’t accept defeat, but to think that a powerful Divinity Transformation practitioner would resort to this trick to want me dead. And to think they still call themselves cultivators. Are they all cultivating the Dao of Heartlessness? Not a hint of righteousness or morality in them."
Li Yi always thought Earthlings were bad, but he never expected the cultivators of the Xuanxian Continent to be just as bad.
They even tampered with a Low Grade Treasure.
If he accidentally fell into the trap, he might really be killed by the Luminous Mirror controlled by a wisp of Primordial Spirit Power from Taixian Weng, as Sword Coin’s residual thought had mentioned. By then, not only would he lose his life, but he would also have to return the things.
The thought alone was nauseating.
"You don’t have the right to criticize others either. You’re not simple. You gambled your assets and heavily fleeced those cultivators. How could they let you go? I estimate they will find an opportunity to kill you tonight. If you don’t run, you’ll definitely die a horrible death staying at the Golden Academy," the residual thought in the Sword Coin said again.
"I knew they’d eventually make a move against me, but to act today... Are they not even planning to pretend?" Li Yi frowned.
He didn’t argue with this statement because he had already sensed more than one killing intent with a soul premonition when he left the Magic Battle Platform.
"You may look safe now, but in reality, you are like a turtle in a jar, making it hard to escape. Once you leave the boundaries of the Golden Academy, your death would only come quicker," the residual thought in the Sword Coin said with a cold laugh. "Playing clever tricks and gaining benefits will lead to heavy losses. It may have been satisfying when you schemed against them, but you can’t afford the backlash afterward."
"And you don’t have any backing at the Golden Academy. If you can take advantage to flee to Beihuai City and find Merchant Lord Xiu Xiang, you can still save your life. But the path from the Golden Academy to Beihuai City is impossible for you to cross. Even if you bought a Thunderbolt Fighter, it wouldn’t help. Don’t underestimate the means of Divinity Transformation cultivators."
Li Yi’s eyes shifted slightly: "I know I can’t escape, so I never planned to leave the Golden Academy. I’m thinking of leaving by crossing realms, heading to the End of Dharma Cultivation World. They can cultivate immortals, and I can cultivate too. Someday when I’ve achieved cultivation, I’ll come back to settle the score."
