第三千八百五十七章 险阻重重

It took more than a day of freezing cold to form, not something that could be achieved in an instant. For ordinary cultivators, it was as difficult as climbing up to the sky. Of course, this applied only to ordinary cultivators; after all, along the way, there were nearly a hundred different demon tribes he had to pass through.

Not just ordinary cultivators, even old patriarchs at the Tribulation Transcending stage would not dare do such a thing.

As the saying goes, a hero can't stand up to too many people. Some of these demon tribes were weak, but there were also top-tier experts among them.

In short, passing through all those demon tribes was extremely dangerous from any angle." "Chapter

But Lin Xuan had no choice.

Besides, he didn’t care about it anyway.

Ever since his debut, he had already killed countless域外天魔 (Outsider Demons) in the Outer World.

Lin Xuan wouldn't be like ordinary cultivators who feared them as if they were tigers.

Dare to block my path?

Then I'll kill gods and demons alike!

While that was true, Lin Xuan wasn’t a rash and boastful person by nature.

Indeed, he didn’t fear the Outsider Demons, but it wouldn't be a good strategy to simply kill his way through. It would draw too much attention and waste too much time.

If he really attracted powerful Outsider Demons, wouldn't that just cause trouble for him?

While Lin Xuan wasn’t afraid, there was no need!

After careful consideration, disguising himself as an Outsider Demon and passing through their territories seemed the wisest choice.

It would save both time and effort. The time spent on this method was the most efficient among all options.

After much thought, Lin Xuan made his decision without hesitation.

But how could he disguise himself as an Outsider Demon?

Although they shared the same "Demon" character, these fellows were completely different from those in the Ancient Demon World.

The demon techniques that Lin Xuan knew would be of no use. To deceive them might just backfire.

What should he do then?

Though he had made a decision, his current situation was like trying to make a silk purse out of a sow's ear.

Headaches were the best description. But with Lin Xuan’s character, he wouldn’t give up so easily.

He couldn’t disguise himself as an Outsider Demon, but his concealment techniques weren’t something to be taken lightly either.

While concealing his aura would slow down his speed, it was relative. His strength was there, and even a slower speed in the eyes of ordinary cultivators seemed like instant teleportation.

Regardless, it was much faster than forcefully entering and being intercepted.

After much consideration, Lin Xuan decided to do this.

He then took a deep breath, his hands flipping through hand seals. As he moved, his figure became increasingly hazy until almost invisible.

Silently, he flew forward.

...

Time passed slowly.

Lin Xuan rushed along the path. For the first half month, everything went smoothly.

However, during one of his travels through a vast territory controlled by Outsider Demons, he triggered a禁制 (restraining technique).

The array was indeed unique; even Lin Xuan himself didn’t know how it had been discovered.

Facing the surging Outsider Demons, Lin Xuan couldn't help but feel ashamed and angry. He had no need to be lenient with these demon heads from beyond the heavens.

Lin Xuan revealed his true form and unleashed his divine power, killing those demons in a chaotic manner.

In this battle, over ten thousand demon heads fell under Lin Xuan’s hands, rivers of blood flowing.

Regardless of their cultivation level, almost no one could withstand even a single blow from him. He was invincible.

It could be said that he was imposing and awe-inspiring, but Outsider Demons who could stir the three realms to chaos weren’t all weaklings. Even though their cultivation levels were far inferior to Lin Xuan’s, some of their secret techniques were beyond imagination.

A Demon Elder at the Spirit Transformation stage actually planted a secret technique on him in his severely injured state.

...

As a result, even if Lin Xuan used concealment techniques now, they would be useless. This mental imprint was like a festering wound that could not be expelled by his domain; it would only weaken over time.

This vast territory of the demon tribes was indeed extremely wide and sparsely populated, making it impossible to cross in just a short while. In other words, Lin Xuan’s current goal was clearly attracting countless Outsider Demons, like moths drawn to a flame, continuously swarming towards him.

In less than a day, Lin Xuan engaged in three consecutive battles with the demons.

Although none of them posed any real threat, they were as annoying as flies.

...

At the same time, several million miles away from where Lin Xuan was located,

on top of an abandoned mountain stood a large stone temple. Several Tribulation Transcending level Outsider Demon Kings gathered together to discuss something.

"Brother Mi, the identity of that mysterious cultivator has been clarified. This is our clan’s heartland; how could he easily enter here and even dare to massacre Demon Copper City? When did such a powerful expert appear in Nailed Dragon Realm?" The one speaking had blue demon markings carved on his face, with an aura that fluctuated wildly, extremely bizarre.

"Brother Blue, your words have left me speechless. The people below have already done their best to investigate, but the information is limited. He appeared suddenly without any prior signs; who knows where he came from," said a bald demon with a third eye on his forehead, ugly beyond measure, yet spoke in a refined manner.

"Under these circumstances, it’s unlikely that experts from other small realms would specially come here. Unless he was originally from this realm, do you think Nailed Dragon Immortal is possible?"

At this moment, a pleasant voice entered their ears. The speaker wore large red robes and was a female Outsider Demon with some good looks.

However, her cheeks were densely covered in red scales, and when she opened her mouth, a thin snake tongue flickered unpredictably. She looked somewhat like a monster race, but the demon aura around her was pure to an extreme.

"Immortal Lady’s words have some merit. Nailed Dragon Immortal has such a reputation; if not for him, our clan wouldn’t have had so many powerful experts descend into this small realm back then. Even Voidness Senior would be stationed here to deal with Nailed Dragon. Who could have thought that despite his great reputation, he would disappear like a turtle hiding its head," Blue Immortal sighed, speaking with some disdain: "Now if he returns, there’s still a possibility."

"Have you already informed Voidness Senior?"

"Immortal Lady jests; these are just speculations. Voidness Senior is one of our most powerful leaders. If Nailed Dragon really returned here, informing him wouldn’t be inappropriate. But what if it wasn't? If he gets angry, who can bear his wrath before the truth is confirmed?" The Mi Immortal said dismissively.
