Chapter 784: Shedding the Pursuit

~6 min read 1,173 words

Wu Tian shook his head and said, "The chance is slim! Only our boss, Old Ghost and I can find this shortcut. Besides, it isn't fixed in one place, so it's not that easy to locate! Look here, there are more than one spatial corridors!"

Ye Liuyun used Divine Sense to probe and indeed discovered other spatial corridors.

"Do all these corridors lead to Zhongyang Dalu?" Ye Liuyun asked curiously.

"That's not necessarily so; there are corridors to all directions. We've tried most, but this one is the most time‑saving," Wu Tian said confidently.

Ye Liuyun nodded. If Wu Tian hadn't led the way, he couldn't have judged which corridor could transmit the farthest.

He estimated that people from Nether Hell, unfamiliar with this place, would also fail to find this corridor.

"Then thanks, Brother Wu! We'll part ways here!" Ye Liuyun thanked Wu Tian again and said goodbye.

"Take care! When you have time, come back to see our boss. I rarely hear her miss other men! Hahaha!" Wu Tian laughed, his words layered.

Ye Liuyun understood his meaning but dared not reply, pretending not to have heard.

"Alright, if I pass by again, I'll definitely come see you!"

After parting, Wu Tian headed straight back. Ye Liuyun also ordered Du Yan to steer the Warship directly into that spatial corridor.

Inside the Warship they felt nothing, as if they hadn't undergone spatial teleportation.

But when they exited the corridor, the extraneous space before them had returned to normal, with no chaotic spatial energy left.

Ye Liuyun was certain they had indeed left the triangular zone. The Nether Curse had quieted again. At least now they should be far from the Nether Ghost Ship behind them!

On the other Nether Ghost Ship, Ye Liuyun vanished again. When he reappeared, he was already three months' journey away from them.

Liao Ya was practically going crazy!

"That kid is so unorthodox! How did he move that fast? Did he use a Teleportation Array?"

Liao Ya was now helpless, able only to order the Skeleton Soldiers to continue the full‑speed chase.

Moreover, this time he dared not conceal anything and reported directly to Xiuluo.

Xiuluo was not in a hurry. He had already anticipated that, given the Warship's speed, catching Ye Liuyun would be difficult. Now he only hoped Ye Liuyun would stop at Zhongyang Dalu.

She also spoke to comfort Liao Ya: "There might be a spatial Teleportation Array there. No need to rush; after we get there, we'll look for it. Besides, he has the Nether Curse on him, he can't escape!"

"Got it!" Liao Ya, not scolded, felt a bit relieved and immediately went to make arrangements.

Ye Liuyun, however, reminded Du Yan: "Confirm our position, don't go the wrong way!"

"Hold on! I need to sail forward a bit, check the surrounding landmarks, then I'll know where we are."

Du Yan had just emerged from the spatial corridor and for a moment could not discern his current location.

So the Warship continued sailing along its original heading while scanning for coordinates.

Li Sanniang, Bojiao and others gathered to exchange resources.

Ye Liuyun also led his companions back to the Space World, first introducing them to the new residents here, then recounting his encounters in the Secret Realm, and finally allocating resources.

Everyone presented the resources they had obtained and let Ye Liuyun handle the distribution.

They had previously relied on Ye Liuyun's resources, so they behaved responsibly and didn't hide anything.

Yet they hadn't expected that Ye Liuyun's haul would still exceed theirs. In the end, they still benefited from Ye Liuyun's light.

Ye Liuyun had Wu Qingcheng store away the Foreign Tribe's Yuan Dan and Magic Power Stones, while the other resources were left for everyone to take as needed.

The Fifth‑Level Creation Exotic Scale Armor was taken by Qiong Qi, who said it was for the Skeleton Puppet to forge a set of armor to boost its defense.

So Ye Liuyun also gave Qiong Qi the previously collected Golden‑Wing Foreign Tribe scales, letting him forge several extra sets to distribute to the group.

"You still have this good stuff? Golden‑Wing Foreign Tribe! Rare indeed!" Qiong Qi recognized it at a glance.

"This set of scales is fine; I'll first craft one for myself, then make the rest for you all, no problem, right?"

It seemed Qiong Qi really liked the Golden‑Wing Foreign Tribe scales.

"As you wish!" Ye Liuyun was indifferent.

It's just a sturdier set of armor. At their cultivation level, having armor or not makes little difference.

The ferocious beasts' Yuan Dan, and several Monster Beasts, were also taken in abundance. Ye Liuyun didn't mind.

The Spirit Stones were freely available for anyone to take.

After receiving the resources, everyone returned to Xuan Kong Shi to cultivate.

"Shall I give you these Fire Spirit Stones as well?" Ye Liuyun's two flames had reached equilibrium, so he intended to give the remaining Fire Spirit Stones to Qiong Qi.

"No need, keep them! What if you find negative fire flame next time? Then you'd be short of these resources again! I've already gotten enough this time!"

Qiong Qi declined. He turned and entered Xuan Kong Shi, taking the divine artifact Broken Furnace to forge the armor.

Ye Liuyun had to collect those Fire Spirit Stones and set them aside for later use.

Afterwards he also entered Xuan Kong Shi, beginning to absorb the Magic Power Stones and the Foreign Tribe's Yuan Dan.

Two days later, Du Yan's Divine Sense Transmission Voice reached Ye Liuyun.

"Position confirmed. We've arrived at Chaotic Demon Domain. The journey saved us about three months of sailing time."

"Great! Finally we shook them off!" Ye Liuyun felt much relieved.

"Chaotic Demon Domain? Doesn't sound like a good place!" Thinking of the name, he felt the area might be unsafe.

"Indeed, this is the Demon Race's realm, a gathering of Demon Cultivators, extremely chaotic!" Du Yan replied.

"Is your daughter the one who disappeared here?"

Ye Liuyun suddenly recalled that Du Yan's daughter had been taken by a Demon Cultivator.

"I don't know if that Demon Cultivator who took my daughter is still around, or what state they're in now!"

Mentioning his daughter made Du Yan's emotions flare.

"First we'll investigate; if we can find her, we'll act together then!"

Since they've arrived here, Ye Liuyun naturally couldn't ignore it.

Though he has a contract with Du Yan. Even if Du Yan first escorts him to Zhongyang Dalu, Du Yan must honor the agreement.

But after all, he's not that heartless; he couldn't simply ignore Du Yan while only thinking of his own affairs.

They have gotten along very well with Du Yan and the others along the way, and regarding Du Yan's matters, he will absolutely not stand by and do nothing.

"Alright. Thanks!" Du Yan is also very grateful.

"Don't mention it! It's only natural!" Ye Liuyun says nothing more.

Whether we can help Du Yan is still uncertain; saying more now is useless.
