The Path of Survivor begins with obtaining titles

Chapter 672: Chapter 336: I, Long Ao – Part 2
 

Although there appeared no crisis warning within his title “Predict Crisis,” facing the threat of a Great Demon of the Integration Stage was still considered a crisis, one capable of activating this effect.

However, once the effect was stimulated, a pop-up message appeared before his eyes, “Due to the minor degree of crisis, the effect of [Unstoppable Advance] is reduced. Every five steps taken will grant added damage accumulation.”

Lin Yi could not help but give a wry smile, this title really was exceptionally rigorous. The reason he had sent the Fox Demon flying hundreds of meters away was precisely to utilize this distance to stack damage.

Now that damage could only be stacked every five steps, he estimated he could move at most a hundred steps forward before the Great Demon of the Integration Stage would launch an attack.

Looking at the Integration Stage Fox Demon hundreds of meters away, Lin Yi did not waste the opportunity, but landed and started walking step by step towards the demon, “To insult a member of the Dragon Clan in such a way is punishable by law, yet in sparing your life by only erasing your cultivation levels, I have shown mercy. Instead of gratitude, you seek retribution. Come, then.”

“When I reach this Fox Demon, I shall exterminate it. If you can stop me and make me step back even once, what’s wrong with kneeling down and apologizing? However, if you can’t stop me, this day next year will be the sacrificial day for this demon.”

The surrounding Human race and Demon Tribe, hearing Lin Yi’s words, felt their hearts shake violently. They could not have imagined that this Golden Serpent would be so domineering, emanating only Void Refinement Demonic Energy but daring to challenge a Great Demon of the Integration Stage.

And to declare that he would kneel and apologize if forced to step back—where did this Golden Serpent get such confidence?

Of course, from this Golden Serpent’s every action, one could tell its extraordinary origins. Such domineering confidence could not be cultivated casually.

The Serpent Clan’s demons, observing the Golden Serpent’s domineering manner, all revealed surprised expressions. Though belonging to one of the five great powerful Demon Tribes, they themselves would not dare to challenge the Fox Clan in such a way.

Both Demons and Humans, upon hearing these words, felt a glimmer of hope kindle within them, hoping that when they faced harm, an elder of their clan would descend from the heavens and protect them in the same way.

“What insolence from such a small eel, to behave so arrogantly. Even if you possess the golden bloodline, such provocation against our Fox Demon will earn you a lesson. Face your death,” the Integration Stage Fox Demon sneered at Lin Yi, becoming even more infuriated as he steadily approached.

It was, after all, a Great Demon of the Integration Stage, having cultivated for several thousands, almost ten thousand years, now being provoked by a Jiao Dragon exuding merely Void Refinement Demonic Energy—utterly intolerable.

If it were to back down now, one could imagine it becoming the laughingstock of the entire Spirit Profound Realm, with even the Fox Clan suffering from repercussions.

Accompanying its words, the Integration Stage Fox Demon released a fire spell. Above it in the sky, countless green flames materialized, hurtling fiercely towards Lin Yi.

A faint smile appeared on Lin Yi’s face. So this was the legendary Fox Fire. Most Fox Demons lived around graves, absorbing Yin Ghost Energy to refine what they call Netherworld Fire.

Regrettably, this Netherworld Fire was little more than an advanced form of Ghost Fire. Previously, the Chilly Flame formed in his body as a counter-effect to the Red Lotus fire could barely be considered as true Netherworld Fire.

Of course, even ordinary flames could be incredibly powerful below the Body Fusion Realm.

Upon seeing the Fox Fire incoming, Lin Yi showed no fear, nor did he retreat one step, still advancing. As of now, he had moved forward a hundred steps.

The Predicament Title was linked with the level of the Path of Survivor Title. Under the current Emperor of Survival Title, the additional damage he could inflict had reached 140%. Upon activation, it doubled, making it 280%, and now with twenty more layers of damage accumulated, it was almost 3000% damage—that is, thirty-fold.

Even if the three strands of energy within him, used separately, could only manifest the strength of Void Refinement, this represented over thirty Void Refinement Cultivators. The Integration Stage Fox Demon before him, being at the early realm, might be hard-pressed against thirty ordinary Void Refinement Cultivators, but he was no ordinary Void Refinement Cultivator.

Although he could not fuse the three strands of energy, he could use them at the same time, allowing him to reach strength close to the Body Fusion Realm. Thirty Cultivators near the Body Fusion stage would pose a challenge not only to those at the early stage, but even to those at the later stages of Integration.

Unfortunately, if his three strands of breath had reached the strength of the Void Refinement stage, he wouldn’t have needed any additional damaging effects to fight against someone in the late Fusion stage.

Of course, he hadn’t played all his cards, to deal with this sinister Fox Fire, the Yang Energy from his Upper Field of Elixir would suffice.

At that moment, facing the oncoming Fox Fire, Lin Yi erupted with a powerful breath, casually waving his hand and sending a spell of Demon Energy, forged from masculine vigor, flying towards the Fox Fire.

The Fox Fire, reminiscent of heavenly fire descending, flickered wildly upon encountering the spell of Demon Energy as if it had met its nemesis, and quickly extinguished.

The seemingly formidable Fox Fire spell turned out to be so easily defeated.

A gasp spread across the battlefield, as everyone found it hard to believe that the Fox Fire from the Great Demon of the Integration Stage had been so casually dealt with by the Golden Serpent.

From the potency of this spell of Demon Energy, it must have been at least at the level of damage of the Body Fusion Realm. Could it be that this Golden Serpent had concealed his realm? But there was no need for that. The only possibility was that this Golden Serpent could exert strength beyond his own realm.

Lin Yi’s face revealed a faint smile, “Is that all? The reason I took action is because I’m confident in seeking justice for the descendants of the Dragon Clan. What about you? You seek justice for your clan’s younger generation, yet you are so overconfident.”

“I will kill you…” The Integration Stage Fox Demon was enraged by Lin Yi’s words, losing all the deliberate elegance usually maintained by a fox demon.

At this point, several Great Demons of the Integration Stage stepped forward without hesitation to intervene, “Fellow Daoist Bai, please restrain yourself. Our Demon Tribe must not slaughter one another and become a laughingstock to the Human race.”

“Not slaughter one another? When that demon struck my clan’s younger generation, causing their Cultivation levels to plummet, damaging their foundation, thus forever cutting their path to Cultivation, I must avenge this today,” the Integration Stage Fox Demon said coldly, looking unapologetically at Lin Yi.

Its heart was also filled with shock, the Fox Fire it had just cast was its full strength move, yet unexpectedly, the Golden Serpent had blocked it with such ease.

“If you of the Fox Clan had killed off one of my Dragon Clan cleanly due to a disparity in strength, that would have been acceptable. But to dare to humiliate the scions of my clan like this, according to the law, you should be executed. If you wish for vengeance, come then. Let’s see whether I slay your clan’s younger generation first, or you slay me,” Lin Yi said indifferently, continuing to walk forward.

After all, with every few steps he took, he could stack up more damage. Not to stack would be a waste, just in case other old timers from the Fox Clan showed up.

A displeased expression appeared on the faces of the several Great Demons of the Integration Stage, “Fellow Daoist Bai, must you insist on a fight to the death? Fellow Daoist Long isn’t wrong; it was your Fox Clan that insulted first. He spared the life of your clan’s younger generation, indeed showing mercy. If you wish to kill Fellow Daoist Long, think carefully. Do not bring disaster upon your Fox Clan.”

Did this guy really need to speak so plainly? This Golden Serpent was extraordinary, most certainly a True Dragon Descendant from the Immortal Realm, likely sent down for trials. With such a background, if they were to kill Long Ao, the consequences could be easily imagined. Should the true dragons above become enraged, not just the Fox Clan, but the entire Demon Tribe might be implicated.

Suddenly, the several Great Demons of the Integration Stage fell silent, as if listening to something. After a brief pause, the Integration Stage Fox Demon from the Fox Clan cast a resentful glance at Lin Yi, “Since the elder has spoken, let us stop here.”

Lin Yi’s expression remained indifferent as he spoke, “Oh, let’s stop here? You speak as if you’re sparing me. But I will not stop here. Even if you take that fox demon away, the moment I reach the very spot where that fox demon stood, I will head to your Fox Clan to carry out my execution.”

At this time, it was even more necessary to not show weakness, but to exhibit the might of a True Dragon Descendant.

Suddenly, a voice came from the sky, “Fellow Daoist Long, may I ask you to show some leniency on behalf of the Golden Peng Clan? In due time, the fox that insulted your Dragon Clan will come to apologize in person.”

This voice was not a mental transmission, it could be heard by the entire Fox Clan and even by the humans within Spirit City.

Lin Yi knew it was very likely the voice of a Great Tribulation Demon, and naturally he saw no reason to persist, so he halted his steps and gave a cupped fist salutation, “Since a senior from the Golden Peng Clan has spoken, I shall comply.”
