Chapter 785: Human Hell

Ye Liuyun says to Du Yan, "You keep watch first; I'll try to buy time and break through the First Realm, making some preparations for the upcoming battle."

"Alright!" Du Yan replies, and also alerts Li Sanniang and the others to guard against attacks.

But he is secretly astonished. "This kid, breaking through again? That speed is terrifying!"

A year ago, Ye Liuyun saw Du Yan at the Yin Yang Two Levels. Now he's aiming to break the Yin Yang Six Layers!

Moreover, he isn't inside a Sect with ample resources; all resources must be obtained by himself.

So advancing four realms in a year is, for a Martial Cultivator of the Yin-Yang Realm, absolutely lightning fast!

Du Yan can't help but admire Ye Liuyun's cultivation talent.

"If nothing goes wrong, this kid will surely become a legend!"

"What's up?" Li Sanniang and the others, hearing Du Yan muttering, can't help their curiosity.

"Your little handsome one is breaking through again!" Du Yan exclaims.

"Breaking through again? Tsk tsk! Impressive, it should be Yin Yang Six Layers now, right?" Li Sanniang clicks her tongue in admiration.

Bojiao and Tuozi also show surprised expressions. "That breakthrough speed is just too fast! Isn't he afraid his realm will be unstable?"

Du Yan scoffs, "Do you see him looking unstable? Since he started sailing with us, he's never idle; he always finds something to fight. How could his realm be unstable!"

"Exactly!" Bojiao nods in agreement.

Only Luo Yurou sighs softly, anxiously thinking, "The gap between me and him keeps widening!"

Since boarding the Warship and using the Food Star Beast's blood to boost her Bloodline Power, her cultivation speed has increased a lot.

Now she has broken through two levels, advancing to the Yin Yang First Realm.

She originally thought she was already fast enough, but compared with Ye Liuyun, she's still far slower.

Du Yan sees her thoughts but doesn't know how to advise her.

"Let's do it this way: give her a target to chase. Maybe over time she'll come to terms and voluntarily give up!"

Du Yan actually sees clearly that Luo Yurou and Ye Liuyun are simply not of the same kind.

The gap between them is too great; it's hard for them to be together!

Even if Ye Liuyun accepted her, Luo Yurou would become a burden to him.

So he thinks it's actually better for both that Luo Yurou doesn't make it clear to Ye Liuyun.

After conveying the task to everyone, Du Yan then focuses on sailing.

During this period Ye Liuyun will be cultivating, so they must stay on high alert, especially in this chaotic Demon Domain.

All of them know how chaotic this place is.

Though they now command a Super Warship that ordinary people wouldn't dare provoke, this chaotic Demon Domain still hosts many powerful forces, so they can't afford any carelessness.

Along the way, their Super Warship has attracted many greedy Demon Cultivators' eyes.

A Super Warship, whether in defense or offense, is like a moving fortress, and it's fast.

Therefore, scattered Demon Cultivators and weaker factions don't dare to cause trouble lightly.

Yet this region is exceptionally chaotic.

Demon Race or Demon Cultivators here rarely seek resources themselves; they survive by snatching others' resources.

Their sole principle is strength.

Battles are everywhere; shattered corpses litter the ground, and a whole intact body is hard to find.

Some Demon Cultivators refine by absorbing others' blood and sinews; the Demon Race even treats Human Martial Cultivators as food.

Cultivators twisted into grotesque shapes are common here.

Some Demon Cultivators are severely deformed, some are abnormally tall, some lack arms or legs; all are normal here.

Calling this place a human hell isn't an exaggeration.

Living in such an environment for long periods may warp humanity.

Boom!

While Du Yan is sailing, he suddenly sees Li Sanniang using the side ship's beam to blast a group of Demon Race, turning them into frothy fragments.

"Sanniang!" Du Yan guesses Li Sanniang is meddling again and shouts.

"Once I get here, I can't help but want to wipe out those Demon Race!" Li Sanniang says with vigor.

She saw several Demon Race fighting over a Human Demon Cultivator, tearing the person apart alive.

That Human Demon Cultivator was young, looking barely older than a little beggar.

"Don't meddle. We have business to attend to!" Du Yan warns Li Sanniang.

"Got it!" Li Sanniang replies, ceasing fire outward.

Ye Liuyun's Divine Sense also detects the Warship's energy fluctuations and perceives everything outside.

Even though he's battle‑hardened and iron‑blooded, the sight outside makes him gasp a cold breath.

"It's so bloody here! How can anyone want to come to a place like this and live with the Demon Race!" Ye Liuyun mutters.

He can't understand why anyone would be so reckless to die here.

"These Demon Cultivators can't fit among Human Martial Cultivators, get discriminated, so they come here to fight."

Qiong Qi says, explaining, "To them, this is heaven. No one despises them, they have no restraints. To seize resources, everything depends on their own strength!"

"I know the rules of martial cultivation. It's just that this soulless martial path is meaningless to pursue!" Ye Liuyun says slowly.

"The higher your cultivation, the colder the heights. Those strong ones are often solitary!" Qiong Qi, not sure if he's lamenting himself or others.

"Everyone's martial path is different; not all are like that. You were once solitary, and now you have me!" Ye Liuyun comforts him.

Qiong Qi pauses, then smiles knowingly.

He used to only think of himself; now he at least knows to look after Ye Liuyun. That's an unintended change.

Thinking about it, he finds Ye Liuyun's words have merit.

"Maybe what you say is also right, you can grow together with the people around you! At worst, just go a bit slower, it's also better than being alone!" Qiong Qi also realized he had been influenced quite a bit by Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun also nodded slightly, acknowledging this view.

"How do you plan to find your parents and aunt? Zhongyang Dalu is much larger than Cangyun Continent! Finding someone is like looking for a needle in a haystack! You have no clues at all!"
