“Hmph, do you think you’re safe with the protection of a human Golden Immortal?” A Golden Immortal said disdainfully.
The four Beast Spirit prodigies suspected that there was a trap. After all, from the actions of this strongest prodigy of the human race in the Strange Beast Gate and the Realm Sea Peak palace, he did not seem to be a fool. Otherwise, he would not have risen so quickly and obtained a Great Dao treasure.
“No matter what his goal is, when the defense line is broken through, it will be the time he dies!” Ling Guan said coldly, but his eyes looked at the Great Dao treasure armor on Shen Ping’s body. A hint of greed appeared in the depths of his eyes. If he could obtain such a treasure, even if he had to contribute it, he would obtain a huge return. He would no longer have any worries about his future cultivation.
The other three Beast Spirit prodigies thought the same. No one would not be tempted by a Great Dao treasure. Not to mention them, even Immortal Kings and Immortal Venerables were the same.
Greed was the nature of intelligent living beings. Moreover, this was a supreme treasure of the Great Dao, a treasure that could be said to have reached the heavens in a single step. Wasn’t cultivating painstakingly to climb the Great Dao and pursue eternal life? Now, the shortcut was right in front of them.
When benefits far exceeded risk, no matter how firm one’s willpower was, it was difficult to resist temptation.
It was not only the four Beast Spirit prodigies. The other Golden Immortals wished they could rush over and s.n.a.t.c.h that Great Dao treasure. For a high-grade immortal treasure, Golden Immortals would kill wantonly and fight for it.
In fact, even the Golden Immortals on the human side were a little tempted and wondered if they should take advantage of the situation. However, they quickly dispelled such thoughts. This was because this path was blocked. Even if they were lucky enough to obtain a Great Dao treasure, it was impossible for them to obtain it. Instead, they would lose their lives because of it. Venerable Sovereigns of various races were paying attention to such a treasure at all times.
A few days later, the Golden Immortals of the foreign races attacked the Immortal Array Puppet even harder. It could even be said that they spared no expense. In the human defense palace, Golden Immortal Li said slowly, “Shen Ping, it seems that your first plan has worked. At this rate, the Immortal Array Puppet will collapse in another year at most. However, the most important thing is the second step. If those Golden Immortals don’t act alone, it will be very difficult for you to kill them.”
Shen Ping smiled and said, “Senior Li, I believe that such an opportunity will come sooner or later. However, I still have to ask you to do your best to disturb the Golden Immortals of the foreign races.”
“Don’t worry about that. Although fifty of us can’t fight the other party head-on, we still have the ability to hara.s.s them.”
In the blink of an eye, eight months pa.s.sed. The cracks in the Immortal Array Puppet Spirit Formation kept expanding.
“Hurry, the defense line is about to break!”
“As long as you can get rid of the prodigies of the human Beast Spirits, you will all be recognized by the higher-ups of the clan!”
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The Golden Immortals of the foreign races went all out. The humans were also doing their best to maintain the array formation, but half a month later, the defense line completely collapsed.
“Hahaha, kill!”
The moment the Immortal Array Puppet broke open a huge crack, the power of the array quickly decreased and finally shattered like a mountain.
“Retreat!” Golden Immortal Li directly ordered the other Golden Immortals to protect Shen Ping and retreat in the direction of Gray Stone City. However, this protection was tight on the outside and loose on the inside.
The Golden Immortals of the alien followed closely behind. In just a few seconds, they caught up to the human Golden Immortals. Then, the two sides began to fight in the starry sea. In less than five minutes, the Golden Immortals of the alien races realized that the human race had split into two teams. One stayed behind to defend, while the other quickly evacuated with Shen Ping.
“Chase after him!”
Be it Ling Guan or the other Beast Spirit prodigies, they chased after him at this moment. They did not care about the human Golden Immortals who stayed or even arranged for the other Golden Immortals. All the Golden Immortals chased after him.
The Devil Clan, the Spirit Race, the Flame Race, and the other four races no longer had their previous cooperation and full strength. They were completely like a mob. They were focused on catching up to Shen Ping and dealing with him so that they could obtain the first credit. They were afraid that they would fall behind and be s.n.a.t.c.hed by the Golden Immortals of the other races.
Golden Immortal Li originally had a whole lot of plans to disrupt the camp of the Golden Immortals of the foreign races. When he saw the situation, he immediately knew that he did not have to worry. He only had to arrange for the other Golden Immortals to be separated in a hierarchical order and create the illusion of abandoning the carriage to protect the commander.
Therefore, every ten minutes, some Golden Immortals of the human race would stay behind to resist the Golden Immortals of the foreign races. Although the Golden Immortals of the foreign races did not want to fight the remaining Golden Immortals, it was inevitable that they would delay some time by blocking them. Gradually, the camp of the Golden Immortals of the foreign races became chaotic.
An hour later, there were only a hundred people left chasing after Shen Ping.
Golden Immortal Li changed directions and fled into the depths of the sea of stars. There was a large amount of spatial turbulence there. Although it did not cause any harm to Golden Immortals, it could slow down the speed of the Golden Immortals behind.
“Hmph, you’re courting death!”
Ling Guan and the other Golden Immortals naturally saw through Golden Immortal Li’s goal. They could not help but sneer in their hearts. If they went to Gray Stone City and relied on the Immortal Array in the residence, the humans could still resist for a long time. Or they could head to the Black Mist Direlands, Golden Immortals like them could not do anything and the other party had a chance to escape, but if they went deep into the sea of stars, that place would undoubtedly be a dead end.
“The Great Dao treasure must be mine!”
Joy appeared on the faces of every Golden Immortal. This was because in their opinion, Shen Ping was already a fish on the chopping board. As long as they did not chase after him alone, there would be no danger.
Besides, Golden Immortal Li of the human race would definitely stay with Shen Ping the entire time. Golden Immortals of the foreign races would not be stupid enough to chase after him alone as Golden Immortal Li’s combat strength was extraordinary.
Swoosh! Swoosh! In just two minutes, they had chased all the way to the depths of the sea of stars. A large amount of spatial turbulence swept towards them like arrows. If they were at the Mahayana Realm and Tribulation Transcendence Realm, they would have to deal with this spatial turbulence with all their might. However, Golden Immortals like them would be fine even if they relied on their bodies to resist. Of course, no one would do this. After all, spatial turbulence was still relatively dangerous. If they accidentally encountered the turbulence mixed with vortexes, they might be swept to other worlds.
There were still five Golden Immortals left on the humans’ side. Golden Immortal Li continued to follow the plan. He brought Shen Ping deeper and continued to run. The remaining four blocked the rear.
Another ten minutes pa.s.sed. There were only more than 40 Golden Immortals of the foreign races left chasing after them. When they saw that only Golden Immortal Li was left, they were all excited. It could be said that as long as they caught up and surrounded him, they could completely deal with this strongest Beast Spirit prodigy of the human race.
“Shen Ping, I can at most stop more than ten Golden Immortals later and slow them down. However, these Golden Immortals will still chase after you in the end. Are you sure you can shake them off and lure one or two to chase you?” Golden Immortal Li kept dodging the spatial turbulence as he asked via voice transmission.
Shen Ping smiled and said, “Senior Li, don’t worry. If I didn’t have some means, how could I dare to go to the Canglan Demon World alone?”
Golden Immortal Li nodded and was no longer worried. In any case, no matter what the final situation was, Shen Ping had a life-saving treasure bestowed by the Venerable Sovereign. He would definitely be fine.
As the spatial turbulence gradually increased, Golden Immortal Li turned around and looked at the Golden Immortals of the foreign races who were chasing after him. “Shen Ping, let’s part ways here. You have to be careful.”
He turned around and rushed towards Ling Guan and the other 40-odd Golden Immortals. If he was in the Immortal Dao territory, a Golden Immortal like him naturally did not dare to do so. After all, even the strongest Golden Immortal would have the possibility of dying when facing so many enemies of the same level. However, this was the lower realm. If he was in a desperate situation, he could directly erupt with his strongest combat strength and be rejected by the rules of the Immortal Dao territory.
“Haha, Fellow Daoist Li, you can’t stop us!”
The fifteen Golden Immortals were entangled by Golden Immortal Li. No matter how anxious they were, they could only watch as the rest continued to pursue.
“Everyone, be on your guard. This fellow has a method to conceal his aura. Moreover, his escape ability is top-notch. We can’t let him escape!”
Hearing the reminder of the Demon Race’s Beast Spirit genius, the other Golden Immortals nodded on the surface, but in fact, they were only slightly more careful. Instead, they became wary of each other. After all, they had become compet.i.tors, especially the Golden Immortals of different races..
