Chapter 475: Chapter 246: Dayong Qingzhou, Cruel Slaughter and Pursuit

After another hour of flying, Han Yi finally slowed down as the lingering fear gradually subsided.

At this moment, he found himself in a vast expanse of mountains and forests. After flying higher into the sky, he figured out that he had fled to the east after escaping the cave.

Since he still wasn’t sure of his exact location, he released his Immortal Boat and sailed eastward.

The Nine Orifices Immortal Boat had disappeared after Han Yi was trapped in the All Heavens True Form Diagram. It must have been left in the spiritual space of that spiritual treasure.

What he was using now was a medium-grade Treasure Immortal Boat, which he obtained from Tuoba Tu. Han Yi couldn’t name the boat, but it was entirely black with a flood dragon coiled around its body, looking extremely majestic.

This Immortal Boat belonged to the Daqin Immortal Country, and its grade was equivalent to a medium-grade artifact level, similar to a Heavenly Immortal Level Boat.

After flying for three days and crossing endless forests and dangerous mountains, Han Yi finally spotted an Immortal City.

He also had a guess about where he was at this moment.

The cave where Star River Monarch intended to seize his body must be at the core of the Tanggu Mountain Range, which was located southeast of Chi Xiao Sword Sect and on the border between Qianzhou and Qingzhou, as well as between Daqian and Dayong.

“That is to say, my current location should be the newly-formed Immortal Country of Dayong,” Han Yi thought to himself.

Of the three major Immortal Countries in the Yu Heng World, Dayong was the youngest, having been established for only a few thousand years. The current Dayong Emperor was the second ruler of the Immortal Country and could be considered rather young among the three major Immortal Countries.

Although Dayong Immortal Country was said to occupy two of the Nine States in Yu Heng World, Yong State and Qing State, in reality, Yong State was its founding state, and only less than half of Qing State was in a buffer chaos zone.

The chaotic zone was intricate, with many holy lands and even Daqin and Daqian Immortal Countries’ influence in the background. Even Dayong had to turn a blind eye.

This chaotic zone was adjacent to the Tanggu Mountain Range, stretching in a narrow strip northward along the mountain range to the Evil Mountain Range, which marked the border between Daqin and Daqian.

Han Yi paused midair and looked back. After hesitating, he shook his head.

Returning the way he came was impossible.

If the weird existence in the cave was still there, going back would be like returning to a wolf’s den. He couldn’t possibly withstand the creature capable of devouring Nascent Souls.

To be on the safe side, the best course of action should be to follow the Tanggu Mountain Range northward, then turn back east and cross the relatively safe areas of the Evil Mountain Range to reach the vicinity of Yuan Lao Mountain and Chi Xiao Sword Sect.

With his current strength, he could travel safely anywhere in the world as long as he didn’t encounter Monarch Level cultivators, especially if they weren’t demonic or robbing cultivators, who often took action without reason.

However, this area was the most chaotic area in Qingzhou, so Han Yi couldn’t afford to be careless.

After deciding upon the plan, Han Yi disguised himself as a middle-aged man and continued sailing north. Along the way, he encountered several Immortal Cities but did not pay them any attention, making no stops as he proceeded north.

Seven days later.

As usual, Han Yi was traveling north when he passed by an Immortal City of about the same size as Mengshan City.

However, much to Han Yi’s annoyance, a shimmering barrier had already appeared in the sky above the city, indicating that the city protection array had been activated.

Outside the city, more than a dozen Immortal Boats were suspended in the air, with cultivators constantly taking off from the boats and launching frenzied attacks on the city protection array. Spiritual talismans flickered, and thunder roared endlessly.

These Immortal Boats didn’t look like robbing or demonic cultivators but instead had a certain order. The cultivators on the boats wore unified robes, which undoubtedly belonged to a sect or power instead of just ordinary robbing cultivators.

Han Yi slightly adjusted the direction of his Immortal Boat, deviating from the original path to keep a distance from the city, and continued heading north.

In Qingzhou, every Immortal City was affiliated with a power—either a cultivation family or a sect. Conflicts and even destruction of cities and sects were common among these Immortal Cities.

Here, even regular sects could don the guise of robbing cultivators.

Having no interest in these matters, all Han Yi wanted at this moment was to return to Xuandan Sect as quickly as possible.

However.

Just because he didn’t want to cause trouble didn’t mean others felt the same way.

Two Immortal Boats approached swiftly, and Han Yi was surprised to see that their speed was even faster than his own. Before the boats arrived, an arrogant voice shouted,

“It’s the Black Flood Dragon Immortal Boat from Daqin. The guy on that boat must be a fat sheep.”

“We must slaughter him. Don’t let him escape.”

Han Yi stopped his Immortal Boat and looked back, only to see two Immortal Boats speeding from the sides. On them, more than a dozen cultivators wore unified robes, but their expressions and actions revealed their true nature as robbing cultivators.

Essentially, these cultivators were nothing more than robbing cultivators dressed as members of a sect.

With an emotionless face, Han Yi watched the approaching Immortal Boats and the cultivators on them filled with murderous intent. This sight stirred up his own desire to kill.

From the moment he left Guanxuan Academy, to investigating the Shu Du incident, facing the demon cave, and finally Star River Monarch’s seizure attempt, as well as the mysterious existence in the cave, the dangers he had faced in this short period had left Han Yi deeply shaken.

He was not angry, but he had the urge to kill..
