Chapter 375

A blue jeep sped alone along a road on the desolate earth.

Calling it a road, it was actually just a path haphazardly paved with a large amount of gravel and some asphalt; it could hardly be called flat, and could only barely allow a car to drive on it.

Occasionally, one or two trees would flash by on both sides of the road, but there were mostly withered yellow shrubs.

Wang Yu, sitting in the jeep, was also busy with something.

A yellow map had been opened and stuck to the car window beside him.

A horizontally placed mobile phone screen was playing hot news from Nanlazhou, from which the skilled explanation of a British woman could be heard from time to time.

On the passenger seat next to him, a bag of flour and a jar of honey were open, and a large lump of dough mixed from the two appeared in one of Wang Yu's palms.

As his five fingers moved flexibly, wisps of black Qi continuously seeped into it, causing the color of the dough to gradually become waxy yellow and shiny, and also somewhat flattened.

"Snap."

Wang Yu kept his eyes fixed on the phone screen playing the news, but his arm moved, sticking the entire piece of dough onto his face. His other hand also let go of the steering wheel, and his ten fingers kneaded his face simultaneously.

In the blink of an eye, a waxy yellow face with deep-set eye sockets and a high nose appeared over his original face.

Then, he muttered incantations, pinched seals with both hands simultaneously, and spat out the word "Condense."

Several pale white rune phantoms flashed and vanished on the new face, and the originally stiff and wooden-looking face suddenly became lifelike, with natural expressions.

This was exactly one of the many low-rank tricks, the "Face-Molding Technique," that the Yin Family Gang had collected for him. It could be used to mold a face directly from simple materials to change one's appearance and maintain it for a very long time.

Although this non-ranked trick could be easily seen through by a cultivator's divine sense, it was a miraculous face-changing skill to mortals.

In this way, he would not need to continuously consume mana to maintain that "Illusion Transformation Technique."

His current goal in driving forward was the "Hanke La" Great Desert, which was dozens of miles away; according to the driving time, he could arrive in less than two hours.

This desert was the second largest desert in the British Federation, covering nearly ten thousand square miles. Half belonged to the British Federation and half to Xierde. The border between the two countries was in the center of the desert, which was also the region with the most smuggling between the two countries.

After all, in such a desolate area, neither country could deploy too many patrol teams. The British Federation only symbolically set up a few border lines in the desert, and Xierde only set up two border stations in the desert, almost turning a blind eye to the smuggling teams.

The only thing that smugglers found troublesome was how to successfully traverse the desert without getting lost in the frequent sandstorms.

Even though there were some modern means to identify directions in the desert, if one were not led by an experienced local, it would still be an impossible task for an ordinary person to traverse such a large desert.

Even for him, relying solely on his own two legs to cross this desert would likely not be an easy task.

However, for him now, the most important thing was to rush into the desert before the people in the castle found him.

Only under the cover of such vast desert terrain, which would cause some modern tracking means to fail, could he possibly completely shake off the other party's tracking.

While thinking, Wang Yu reached out and grabbed a simply packaged sandwich from the bag at his feet, tore the bag open with his mouth, and began to eat it in large bites.

This physical body of his was simply too weak compared to the tempered body-refining flesh he had in the Cultivation World. When he had time later, he would have to strengthen his body as soon as possible so that he could use more means to protect himself.

Just as Wang Yu had swallowed a few mouthfuls of food and reached out with one hand into the void to grab a mass of clear water using the Water Gathering Technique, he suddenly changed his expression slightly and couldn't help but glance toward the direction of the castle.

Just a moment ago, how did he suddenly feel as if something in the dark had looked at him deeply?

If he were in the Cultivation World, he would have thought without hesitation that it was some cultivator using a soul secret technique to locate him.

But this was Blue Star!

Could it be that those British Federation people in the castle, besides some modern means, also had methods similar to soul secret techniques to track him?

Thinking of this, Wang Yu's vast divine sense immediately split into several strands of divine thought and began to check every inch of this physical body, but there was no discovery at all.

It seemed that saving Yin Qi was not going to be possible!

Wang Yu's expression sank slightly; he suddenly slammed on the brakes and reached out with one hand toward his forehead into the void.

"Pop."

A wisp of black Qi flew out from his forehead, and in the blink of an eye, it condensed into a white, bone-chilling bone banner several feet long in his hand.

He held the banner in one hand and shook it, closed his eyes slightly, pinched a seal with his other hand, and muttered incantations.

"Whoosh."

The pitch-black, shiny surface of the banner unfurled, and a large cloud of black mist flew out from it. In the blink of an eye, it submerged Wang Yu. At the same time, there was a continuous wailing sound in the mist, and dense shadows appeared and disappeared, one after another, drilling into his body.

He had actually summoned a large number of Yin spirits from the Yin Soul Banner and was using the Yin spirits to wash his physical body directly.

Although this method was violent and even harmful to the physical body, it was a common method used by demonic cultivators to destroy restrictions within the body.

"Pop."

A green "scale"-shaped mark appeared on one of his lower legs, and after being repeatedly struck by several shadows, it vanished into a wisp of green smoke.

Wang Yu was quick-handed and scooped it up with one hand. With black Qi swirling around his five fingers, he caught the green smoke in his palm and scanned it with his divine sense.

It contained no mana and no divine sense power, but it seemed to contain some kind of filthy power. How had this thing managed to evade his divine sense internal inspection earlier?

Wang Yu felt a slight chill in his heart, but immediately rubbed his hands together with black Qi rolling.

"Sizzle."

This wisp of green smoke was forcibly crushed and extinguished by the Yin Qi, turning into nothingness.

But at this moment, it seemed he had already exposed his location!

Wang Yu subconsciously looked up at the sky.

Except for the glaring sun, the sky was cloudless for ten thousand miles, and nothing could be seen.

……

"Ah, my eyes!"

In a white room beneath the castle, the middle-aged man in the tailcoat was kneeling halfway before a half-human-tall stone statue, screaming as he desperately pressed both palms against one of his eyes. A trickle of bright red blood was flowing from between his fingers, and dozens of blood-red crystal balls were placed on the nearby floor.

These crystal balls were arranged in the shape of an eye, surrounding the man in the tailcoat and the stone statue in the center. However, all the crystal balls had cracked open in the middle, slowly oozing bright red blood, filling the entire room with a thick, bloody stench.

The half-human-tall stone statue had the upper body of a naked woman and the lower body of a snake—a bizarre appearance. What made people feel even colder was that the woman's face had no features, but a huge eyeball was clearly carved on her abdomen, black and white, lifelike, as if it were a living thing.

"What happened? Did the divination fail?" the blonde woman standing to the side asked with a frown.
