Chapter 735: Leaving the Central Domain
"Whoosh whoosh~"
In the desolate mountains, a azure-purple escape light flew at high speed, reaching a velocity comparable to nascent soul stage cultivators, touching the significant threshold of six thousand miles per hour.
"Now, it should be temporarily safe, right?"
Liu Yu thought to himself as he flew. After using the sword of ruin, he had no time to clear his aura and hurriedly sought to buy himself a little more time to escape.
Even if he cleared the remaining spiritual treasure's aura, collecting the aura he had left behind would still allow the two great holy lands to use secret techniques to track him.
As the saying goes, "more debts, no worries." Since clearing his aura wouldn’t improve his situation, Liu Yu simply decided not to waste that time.
Regardless of whether the spiritual treasure was exposed or not, he could no longer stay in the Central Domain.
Sending a mid-stage nascent soul cultivator to deal with a junior golden core cultivator, the Primordial Demon Sect or Dao One Holy Land must have thought it was a sure thing.
Now that the nascent soul elder they sent suddenly died, even if they realized the importance of his presence and sent new pursuers, it would take some time.
"It’s best if I can reach the location of the ancient teleportation array in this time; otherwise, I fear the worst."
Liu Yu smiled wryly, contemplating silently.
Although he had plenty of time and enough spiritual stones to create another spiritual power mark to activate the sword of ruin, the power of the Primordial Spirit couldn’t just be restored at will.
He had no strength left to use the sword of ruin again; forcing its use would only lead to the collapse of his Primordial Spirit.
Racing against time, Liu Yu had no opportunity to stop and quietly recover his Primordial Spirit power.
His current cultivation level was too low; the kind of attack that had just approached the fifth stage could only be sustained once with his current Primordial Spirit strength.
During this period of no restored Primordial Spirit power, he couldn’t even casually use his spiritual consciousness techniques.
"This time it's a mid-stage nascent soul; I fear the next pursuer sent will likely be a great cultivator."
"If that’s the case, if I can’t feel the ancient teleportation array, it seems all my efforts will be in vain."
Liu Yu murmured to himself.
"There are three escape talismans left; that should be enough to get me to the East Continent."
"Unfortunately, the power of that strike was too great, destroying even the opponent's storage bracelet."
Thinking this way, he felt a bit regretful.
"Spiritual stones and precious high-grade spiritual talismans are only external possessions."
"As long as I can keep my life, consuming these is worth it."
"While there’s still green mountain, there’s no fear of firewood!"
With this thought, Liu Yu cleared his mind and concentrated on his journey, his gaze becoming resolute once again.
But every time he thought about the fourth-tier spiritual talismans he had painstakingly gathered, almost all consumed in this battle, his heart still ached subtly.
However, for the sake of safety, Liu Yu still had to consume the assets he had accumulated over the years and use the fourth-tier spiritual talismans to hurry.
"Whoosh whoosh~"
Rushing forward, ordinary cultivators only caught a glimpse as the azure-purple escape light had already passed by.
"I wonder how Zhuo Mengzhen and Zhang Yi are doing right now?"
"Compared to myself, they didn't leave any traces; they have attracted much less attention."
"But time waits for no one; whether they can arrive in time depends on their fortune."
Thinking of his concubine and disciple, Liu Yu shook his head slightly.
The oppressive sense brought by the two holy lands was too strong; he was currently struggling for his own safety and couldn’t pay attention to some things anymore.
...
In the East Continent, with the end of the border friction between humans and demons, the flames of war seemed distant.
