In front of the distant Evil Spirit Divine Realm passage, several Heaven Monarch-level Evil Spirit Race experts patrolled the area, remaining extremely vigilant.
Ever since the Divine Spirit Race was rescued and the Elders were assassinated, the Evil Spirit Divine Realm had not relaxed its vigilance. Numerous guards were stationed, especially around the passage.
There were several Heaven Monarchs outside, and many more inside, including a God Monarch.
Originally, there were only a few passages to the Evil Spirit Divine Realm, so assigning a God Monarch to each passage was no problem. However, it exhausted the Evil Spirit Race members, who had to stay constantly alert and monitor their surroundings.
This situation caused them great distress, but they had no choice but to endure it. Unless the elders issued a relaxation order, they had to remain vigilant at all times.
If they were found slacking, they would be severely punished!
"Damn it, when will this patrolling end? This high-intensity patrolling every day is too tiring."
"Right, but we have no choice. We must continue patrolling. If anyone sneaks through, we're done for."
"I wonder where those guys are hiding. We've been searching for so long and still haven't found them. I suspect they broke through the space and escaped without needing to use the passage."
"Whatever the case, we must thoroughly search the entire Evil Spirit Divine Realm. We won't stop until we are sure they have escaped by breaking through the space."
"Searching the entire Evil Spirit Divine Realm? That would take hundreds, if not thousands, of years. The Divine Realm is too vast. Guarding the passage is one thing, but searching inch by inch is too difficult."
"But we have no choice. It shouldn't take that long, maybe several decades, since the elders are also involved, and they are very fast."
They were all dissatisfied, but they had to follow orders. To completely end this, they had to search the entire Evil Spirit Divine Realm, proving that the intruders had escaped by breaking through space before they could stop.
Breaking through the passage required great power or a starry sky beast, otherwise, it was difficult to bypass the passage and break through the Divine Realm space.
However, starry sky beasts were not omnipotent and couldn't easily traverse all Divine Realms. Navigating the Evil Spirit Divine Realm, for example, required great cultivation.
If a starry sky beast was involved, they could find traces of it. These traces wouldn't disappear quickly but would take a long time to recover.
A starry sky beast essentially dug a passage through the void. Even if the passage were filled, traces would remain. If they found traces of a starry sky beast, their search would end.
If not, they would keep searching until the area was thoroughly checked.
In such a situation, how could they not go crazy?
"Wait, there's something!"
At this moment, they noticed a figure appearing in their line of sight. When they saw clearly, it was a human cultivator flying towards them.
"A human cultivator? How dare he fly over here?"
They frowned, then flew out, shouting at Yi Tianyun, "Cultivator, leave if you don't want to die! Stay away from here!"
They didn't bother much, as their main task was to guard the entrance, not kill passing cultivators. Leaving their posts without permission would get them punished.
However, no matter how they shouted, the human cultivator continued flying towards them.
"Is this kid not afraid of death, or whose slave is he?" a guard frowned.
"Who cares whose slave he is. If he keeps coming, we'll catch him!" another guard said.
As the cultivator approached, they surrounded him, intending to capture him.
Just as they closed in, a cold silver light swept around, slicing them in half, and killing them instantly!
"This... this power!"
The remaining guards, seeing this, crushed their communication jade tokens to call for support.
The cultivator approached at a steady pace, smiling, "That's right, call for reinforcements. I want to see how many strong ones will come."
The audacious cultivator was Yi Tianyun. He didn't teleport in or sneak in with an Evil Spirit Puppet; he charged in openly!
He wanted this effect, to kill as many as came, to gain experience and assess the strength of the Evil Spirit Divine Realm. He wanted to see if the strongest among them could suppress him, allowing for a comprehensive judgment.
If they were too weak, he wouldn't mind destroying the Evil Spirit Divine Realm right now!
"Who are you? This is the Evil Spirit Divine Realm!" they emphasized where they were, as even experts from a third-grade Divine Realm wouldn't dare provoke the Evil Spirit Divine Realm, hoping to deter him.
"I came specifically for the Evil Spirit Divine Realm!"
Yi Tianyun sneered, gripping the Star Divine Spear, transforming into a red streak that pierced through them, turning them to ashes.
"What happened!?"
A God Monarch flew over, sensing the shattered jade token, rushing to support. As he tried to see what was happening, a figure appeared before him. Before he could react, he felt a cold sensation in his chest.
Only then did he see Yi Tianyun, but it was too late to resist. The Star Divine Spear had pierced his chest, killing the Evil Spirit God Monarch instantly!
The God Monarch only learned of the intruder's presence as he died, unable to even serve as cannon fodder.
"With the 'Evil Spirit Race Slayer' title, their defense is too weak, easily pierced." Yi Tianyun felt elated. Adding fifteen times damage effortlessly was extremely satisfying. He could kill second and third-level God Monarchs with one shot, as easy as drinking water.
"The general is dead, the general is dead!"
The guards at the end of the passage screamed, seeing their general slain, and crushed their emergency jade tokens, calling for all nearby support.
"Hurry, close the passage! Don't let him through!"
They quickly tried to close the passage, but they were too slow. In a blink, Yi Tianyun was upon them.
"What, not welcoming guests?" Yi Tianyun smiled gently, looking amiable.
To them, it was terrifying. Their general was killed in one strike; what kind of monster had invaded!?
