Chapter 756: Chapter 556: The First Battle Back in Western Hong

Shen Yi sat cross-legged atop Withered Island.

Once nurturing the Town Stone relying on his own accumulation, now after advancing to the Unity Realm Stage, he had managed to heal several Sub-hall Masters using the breath of heaven and earth from the entirety of the Nanyang Treasure Land. The efficiency had increased manifold.

In just over a dozen days, even An Yi, whose cultivation was the highest, saw the cracks in his stony form considerably restored.

Shen Yi did not grow careless because of his breakthrough in level.

Western Hong was not like the south; aside from being extremely dangerous, it also involved the forces of Eastern Hong and Northern Hong, making it utterly chaotic.

He would have to continue hiding his identity for the time being.

There were many things that were more convenient to be executed by a few Sub-hall Masters than by him personally.

After breaking through to Union Dao, Shen Yi had gained a clearer understanding of the powers of several Sub-hall Masters.

Let’s skip over Wu Jun and Yu Lan from White Jade Capital for now.

For a cultivator, anchoring a Dao Soldier deepens control over the He Dao Bao Di with each artifact, and the process of anchoring four consecutive Dao Soldiers marks the journey from the early to Perfection Earth Realm.

Ke Shisan had barely crossed the threshold, even less so compared to the early Earth Realm... because the former Sect Master of the Wanxiang Pavilion was probably the lower limit of the early Earth Realm, and in the Wanxiang Pavilion, Ke Shisan was clearly outclassed.

The bloodlines of the brothers Yue Tianji were much purer, and both were top Great Demons just below Union Dao.

Now transformed into Town Stones, they had stepped into the Mid Stage of the Earth Realm, slightly inferior to An Yi, but the gap was not wide. Relying on the Divine Skills of the Disaster Qilin, if they were to face each other, the odds of winning might be even higher.

Little Tiger Demon, as the Sub-hall Master with the highest cultivation, was not far from the Late Earth Realm.

You should know, having four soldiers to command is rare across all of Hongze; three Dao Soldiers is the norm for most Sect heirs.

Thus, the Late Earth Realm is actually the upper limit for most cultivators in the Union Dao Realm.

But Shen Yi never forgot the bout between An Yi and the chieftain of the Frost Tiger Clan; after the Fierce Tiger chieftain was momentarily disturbed and wounded due to a sneak attack, when he had collected his senses, he almost shattered An Yi’s stony body with a single palm.

Honestly, that he managed to escape successfully was more because the chieftain hesitated from the start to kill Little Tiger Demon, being indecisive and then forcefully retracting his power, plus his unfamiliarity with the Ten Thousand Demon Hall.

Such a Great Demon was at least at the Perfection Earth Realm... or even higher.

Shen Yi was not unduly modest; with five Dao Soldiers anchored, unique in all of Hongze, his cultivation was above the Perfection Earth Realm; in terms of boundary alone, unless it was someone from the Heaven Realm, it was impossible for anyone to surpass him.

But cultivation is just cultivation; when boundary could not be overwhelmingly imposed, techniques had to be compared.

Shen Yi, having no Daoist Technique to use and possessing only one Union Dao Realm level Magic Treasure, the Gold Bracelet, which he had taken from the Frost Tiger, relied solely on two techniques of the Mountain Cultivation Technique, plus five Dao Soldiers—his foundation was hardly rich.

How could he dare to claim victory against these Great Demons?

"Sigh."

Shen Yi regulated his breath; the Town Stones of the four Sub-hall Masters were nearly fully mended, the rest should heal on their own.

He opened his eyes, stood up, and looked in the direction of the Ban Shan Sect.

Just then, his black robe’s hem fluttered slightly and a hint of an indistinctly murderous aura came wrapped in the damp wind, brushing against his hair.

"Sit back down."

An emotionless command sounded.

Clouds churned in the sky, revealing several figures standing with folded arms, all with tiger heads and human bodies, around ten or so, their demeanor indicating high positions, evidently having considerable status within their clan.

At the front were two elderly Tiger Demons, one in a black robe and the other in a white robe, appearing like messengers of death.

The previous words had indeed come from the black-robed Tiger Demon.

"Before that Glazed Green Phoenix arrives, you cannot go anywhere," the white-robed Tiger Demon shook his head, stretching out a tiger claw downwards with a cold expression, "Or, you could admit to the crimes you have committed, call An Yi, and maybe keep an intact corpse."

It was well known that the Frost Tiger Clan held such a esteemed position in Western Hong because the clan housed three Great Demons comparable to those in Union Dao.

"Don’t try to argue, the chieftain has investigated your identity."

The white-robed Tiger Demon shook his head, his tiger palm suddenly pressing down, aiming to suppress the young man in the black robe back down. His eyes twinkled, and a killing intent curled at the corner of his mouth, his voice cold, "A distinguished guest from the Seven Sons of South Hong."

These Southern Barbarians, aiming to gain a foothold in Western Hong, tried to step on a stepping stone first.

But they clearly stepped on the wrong person.

The Frost Tiger Clan, commanding respect in this aquatic and terrestrial territory of Western Hong, even eligible to participate in the selection of the Crown Prince at the Dragon Palace, even the Dragon Consort from Mount Yu sought to win them over; they are a legitimate Great Demon power!

The south is stretching its hands too far, not afraid of getting their fingers chopped off.

"..."

Before he could finish, the corner of his mouth which had just been raised suddenly dropped, and that hand capable of moving mountains inexplicably froze in mid-air.

Shen Yi stood serenely, looking into the distance, unable to spot the chieftain of the Frost Tiger Clan. Upon hearing the words about the Seven Sons of South Hong, he directed his gaze back to the clouds.

The demonic power that could have demolished the entire Withered Island inexplicably dispersed before him.

Forget about pressing him back down, they couldn’t even get close to him.

Instead, under Shen Yi’s casual glance, the many Tiger Demons in the clouds suddenly felt their hearts beat violently as if they were about to burst within their bodies!
