Chapter 1375: Understanding Strength

~7 min read 1,211 words

His invisibility technique is quite mysterious, appearing and disappearing without trace!

Ye Liuyun silently praised it in his heart.

Ye Liuyun knew he possessed Spatial Power.

However, his invisibility did not cause any spatial fluctuations.

So Ye Liuyun confirmed that his invisibility ability was a special technique.

Moreover, it was completely different from the Shadow Concealment Secret Technique.

However, he also felt that all invisibility methods have drawbacks.

Namely, once someone sees through it, it actually becomes easy to suffer a loss.

Xie Tianhong's avatar last time was struck by Ye Liuyun's blade precisely for this reason.

Thinking this, Ye Liuyun's Divine Sense detected Xie Tianhong approaching again from that direction, so he pretended to run a bit more before stopping.

Upon seeing him stop, Xie Tianhong came over and kept a certain distance, no longer approaching him.

Ye Liuyun walked back, and he followed him back.

Only when Ye Liuyun returned to the original spot did he run over and meet up with Ye Liuyun.

"Did you shake off your Snow Eagle?"

Ye Liuyun pretended to ask.

"No way?"

"That Snow Eagle didn't come after me! I wanted to ask you—I saw it flying toward you!"

Xie Tianhong's acting expression was spot on.

"Ah?"

"No way?"

"I didn't see it either!"

Ye Liuyun said in surprise.

"Forget it, wherever it went—just as long as we're fine!"

Xie Tianhong waved his hand, saying nonchalantly.

"Exactly! But if we encounter high-level ferocious beasts in the future, we'll be in danger—they usually spot us first!"

Ye Liuyun sighed.

"That's also a problem!"

Xie Tianhong also began to ponder.

"He can find an excuse this time, but what about later!"

"If Ye Liuyun encounters danger, he still must go rescue Ye Liuyun."

"I've come up with something—I have a treasure that can prevent ferocious beasts from detecting us with their Divine Sense!"

Xie Tianhong said proactively.

"Oh?"

"What treasure? Bring it out quickly to have a look!"

Ye Liuyun also became interested.

Xie Tianhong immediately took out a brown umbrella from his Storage Ring.

"This umbrella, although a Venerable-rank treasure, has no defensive function."

Its purpose is to counter Divine Sense detection! And it can shield both of us!"

Xie Tianhong introduced it to Ye Liuyun.

"This thing is truly practical!"

Ye Liuyun also praised it.

"Yeah."

"As long as the ferocious beasts don't see us, they won't detect us!"

Xie Tianhong said, opening the treasure umbrella to cover them both.

This slowed their travel speed a bit, but made them much safer.

However, Ye Liuyun did not want him to be that safe.

He still wanted to learn more about Xie Tianhong's methods.

This treasure umbrella can shield against external Divine Sense probing them, but it does not block internal Divine Sense from projecting outward.

Ye Liuyun could use his Divine Sense to guide ferocious beasts, luring them to attack.

Even ferocious beasts of Heavenly Sovereign first and second level cannot discern Xie Tianhong's strength; this time Ye Liuyun plans to find him a stronger opponent.

Soon, Ye Liuyun discovered they had entered the territory of a pack of snow wolves.

In a distant valley, Ye Liuyun's Divine Sense detected over two hundred snow wolves of varying levels resting there.

They had just hunted a few woolly mammoths, eaten their fill, and were now resting.

Ye Liuyun used his Divine Sense to attract the attention of a Heavenly Sovereign second-level alpha wolf.

That wolf warily looked around, but found that the source of the Divine Sense was actually nothing.

Although it felt doubtful, the wolf pack had just eaten its fill, so it lacked the energy to investigate further.

Seeing that plan fail, Ye Liuyun tried another method.

Near that wolf, there was also a female wolf guarding several wolf pups as they slept.

Ye Liuyun used his Divine Sense to attack a wolf pup, startling it so that it yelped and leapt up, then spun in place, wailing incessantly.

The alpha wolf could no longer remain indifferent; it immediately used its body to block the pup, shielding it from Ye Liuyun's Divine Sense attack, and then probed again for the source of the Divine Sense, still detecting nothing.

But it could clearly sense that the source of the Divine Sense was moving.

The wolf pack was also roused from sleep, their ears all pricked up, extending their Divine Sense to probe the surroundings.

With a low growl from the lead wolf, over a dozen Earth Sovereign-level snow wolves rushed out of the canyon, encircling the direction of Ye Liuyun and his companions.

Soon, Xie Tianhong also noticed those snow wolves coming to investigate.

"Just a pack of low-level snow wolves!"

Ye Liuyun said indifferently.

Xie Tianhong also didn't pay much attention.

Dealing with these snow wolves was indeed not too troublesome for the two of them.

The snow wolves that came out to scout, upon discovering them, did not attack immediately but first sounded a warning to inform the Wolf King, then tailed them nearby, conducting surveillance.

"Oh no! This seems to be a wolf pack preparing to surround us!"

Xie Tianhong also sensed something was off.

Ye Liuyun also said solemnly: "It's possible; otherwise they would have already launched an attack!"

"Let's hurry and leave!"

Xie Tianhong proposed to speed up their escape from here.

But since they had already been targeted by the wolf pack, they couldn't just shake them off.

Ye Liuyun's Divine Sense had already detected that the Wolf King was leading the wolf pack in pursuit.

"You go first, I'll block those intercepting wolves so they don't keep following us!"

Ye Liuyun said, drawing his blade and charging at a snow wolf.

"Brother Ye..."

Seeing Ye Liuyun already rush out, Xie Tianhong shouted once and then did not insist further.

He knew they had now been locked on by the wolf pack and likely could not escape.

If they were to fight, he also did not want Ye Liuyun to discover his strength.

It would be better to separate from Ye Liuyun; he would first kill the Wolf King and some higher-level snow wolves, then return to find Ye Liuyun.

Thinking this, he also distanced himself from Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun's attacks on the wolf pack could only handle a few at a time, and snow wolves were still tailing Xie Tianhong.

They all felt that the treasure umbrella could shield against Divine Sense detection, so they focused their efforts on Xie Tianhong.

The direction the Wolf King was rushing toward was also Xie Tianhong.

As for dealing with Ye Liuyun, they adopted a divide-and-conquer tactic, only a few Earth Sovereign-level snow wolves rushing over to engage him.

Those few snow wolves tasked with restraining Ye Liuyun were also intentionally separating him from Xie Tianhong, leading him farther away.

Seeing the Wolf King running toward Xie Tianhong, Ye Liuyun instead ceased pursuing those few snow wolves, keeping his distance from Xie Tianhong and observing his battle from afar.

Those snow wolves that had been restraining Ye Liuyun, seeing he made no movement, did not leave; they simply surrounded him, not rushing to attack.

When Xie Tianhong realized his Divine Sense could no longer detect Ye Liuyun, he immediately stopped and waited for the wolf pack to arrive.
