NOVPUBThe two of them were simply no match for Lin Jing.
If it weren’t for the fact that Lin Jing had previously tried to avoid causing too much commotion, he would have taken action earlier and resolved the issue with them.
As for why there were other people following behind Lin Jing and his group, we have to start from the beginning, right after several of them escaped from the Changyun Clan…
After leaving the Changyun Clan, they had intended to depart as quickly as possible, and then use the Teleportation Array in Ninghai City to transmit to another sea city before leaving the Demonic Beasts’ Inner Sea.
Although their plan was sound,
plans could never keep up with the changes.
Both Changyun Yuanshuang and Changyun Yuanlei had left, even taking Lin Jue with them as they escaped from the Changyun Clan.
The Changyun Clan quickly responded.
Once the Changyun Clan had reacted, they immediately began sending out people to scout the nearby seas for their whereabouts.
At the same time, they also thought of the Teleportation Array in Ninghai City, worrying that the group might use it to escape from Ninghai.
There were already people from the Changyun Clan in Ninghai City.
So once they learned that Changyun Yuanshuang and the other two had fled, they immediately notified their clanspeople in Ninghai City.
They set up a guard directly at the Teleportation Plaza, waiting for their arrival. However, when the group rushed there, they discovered the members of the Changyun Clan guarding the Teleportation Plaza first.
The group could have used their Cultivation Technique to disguise themselves,
but Changyun Yuanlei and Yan Wanfei’s Cultivation was too weak, and even with the disguise, they couldn’t evade the scrutiny of the Changyun Clan.
Even Changyun Yuanshuang was at risk of being discovered.
Therefore, in order to be cautious, the group quickly left Ninghai City before the Changyun Clan became aware of them.
After leaving Ninghai City, the group immediately decided to abandon the use of the Teleportation Array and instead chose to directly board the Flying Boat to leave.
Although they managed to get away this time, the people from the Changyun Clan would certainly not let them escape so easily.
Subsequently,
the group continued to flee amidst the pursuit and blockade of the Changyun Clan’s forces, constantly changing their route in an attempt to shake off the entanglement of the Changyun Clan.
During this time, they had two encounters with a team led by the elder Changyun Yuanshuang, aimed at capturing them and taking them back.
The leaders of the Changyun Clan’s task force sent to capture them all possessed Cultivation at the Dao Integration Stage, which was even higher than Lin Jing’s.
Fortunately, the members of the Changyun Clan had no intention of harming them but simply wanted to take them back.
Thus,
during the negotiation with Changyun Yuanshuang, Lin Jing took the opportunity to launch a surprise attack using the Great Dream Ancient Mirror to immobilize the person.
Afterward, they quickly fled the scene.
The Great Dream Ancient Mirror was indeed a rare Daoist Treasure. With Lin Jing’s current Solidifying Body stage of Cultivation, activating the Great Dream Ancient Mirror could trap even a Dao Integration Stage Cultivator in an illusion, unable to escape the dream realm.
With the help of the Great Dream Ancient Mirror, the group twice turned peril into safety.
Besides the Changyun Clan, after the group had been on the run for a while, they discovered that another power was also searching for them.
This power was different from the Changyun Clan.
When the people from this power encountered them, they did not hesitate at all and launched an attack on them directly.
Luckily, at the beginning, this power was unclear about the combat strength on Lin Jing’s side, so the people they sent in pursuit were no match for Lin Jing.
Lin Jing easily resolved them.
However, as Lin Jing dealt with those they had sent, it seemed that the power also realized something was wrong.
So,
they sent out two more individuals to continue the pursuit, but this time the individuals sent were of a higher tier in Cultivation.
The two Solidifying Body Cultivators chasing behind Lin Jing were those sent by that mysterious power.
And most crucially,
for some unknown reason, that power seemed to be able to easily locate Lin Jing and his group.
Thus,
there followed the conversation between Lin Jing and Lu Youjiu mentioned above.
...
After flying for a while and finding the right moment, Lin Jing left the Flying Boat.
The others continued piloting the Flying Boat forward.
As soon as Lin Jing stepped out of the Flying Boat and exposed some of his aura, he was immediately met with the same fate as the previous two.
Suddenly,
the Demonic Beasts in the sea, sensing his aura, all charged at Lin Jing with bloodshot eyes.
It seemed that due to this sea region’s characteristics, these Demonic Beasts would only attack foreign Cultivators, while they did not engage each other.
The sea Demonic Beasts that attacked Lin Jing were stronger than those that had attacked the previous two Cultivators, with several of the strongest nearing Divinity Transformation.
Apart from those Demonic Beasts that lunged at Lin Jing, there were more than a dozen others hiding within the sea, controlling various Spells to launch attacks on Lin Jing.
However,
although these Demonic Beasts were somewhat stronger, they were still no match for Lin Jing.
Lin Jing simply activated the Five Elements Divine Art, and immediately countless strands of Five-Colored Aurora rose around him.
Once the Five-Colored Aurora appeared, it quickly struck at the Demonic Beasts assaulting Lin Jing.
"Pft"
"Pft"
"Pft..."
The Five-Colored Aurora passed through their bodies, tearing them apart before they plummeted into the sea below.
Suddenly,
the sea’s surface was dyed a bright red with blood, and a dense stench of blood filled the air.
With Lin Jing’s move, tranquility returned to the sea area, leaving behind only the crimson surface and the strong scent of blood.
Thereafter, Lin Jing extended his Divine Sense over the sea.
Having scanned the sea and ensured there were no more Demonic Beasts in the vicinity, Lin Jing then directly entered the System Space right there.
