Both of them had more or less guessed each other's identities, but if her identity as the young master of the Sky Elixir sect were to be exposed, it'd create a huge gap between her and Lin Yi.
"Oh, hello." Naipao was a eunuch, and he had no interest in beauties. In his eyes, they were nothing but red skulls. Tian Chan was very pretty, but he only greeted her briefly before turning his attention to Lin Yi.
Tian Chan didn't show her strength, and Naipao didn't expect her to be a Sky class late phase peak. Since she was saved by Lin Yi, as far as Naipao was concerned, Tian Chan was only a small Mystic.
Zhang Naipao didn't talk much, and Tian Chan was happy to be at peace. She didn't want Lin Yi to see through her if she said too much.
"How about this, that spirit beast of yours can interact with other spirit beasts?" Naipao hesitated before turning to Lin Yi. "We can have it negotiate with the spirit beasts we meet on the way, and use both carrot and stick. If they let us pass, then we'll be fine, but if they attack me, I can reflect the damage, and use my Wasp Absorption Arts to suck their qi dry!"
"Oh? You can suck them? Oh, I forgot. Can't we just fight our way out? "Lin Yi thought of Naipao's Wasp Absorption Arts. It was a very powerful skill.
"Yes, but it's not realistic to fight all the way out. Spirit beasts obviously have more Zhen Qi than human cultivators. With my current strength, I can absorb a Yellow or Mystic Spirit Beast, but it's a bit difficult to absorb an Earth Spirit Beast. If I absorb a Heaven Spirit Beast, my body will explode and I will die. Just like the last time you almost made me explode and die!" Naipao shook his head. "Plus, even if it's a Golden or Mystic class, I can only suck two or three of them- I can't take it anymore!"
"That's true." Lin Yi nodded in understanding. "Oh right, why don't you absorb two spirit beasts and then use the Divine Thorns Art to injure a few more spirit beasts. Then, absorb again to heal your wounds. This way, you won't have to worry about your body exploding."
"That … is a good idea!" Naipao thought about it and agreed, "But, we need to be careful when we leave. A few beasts is fine, but if there's a bunch of them, I won't be able to handle them."
"We can only try our best to avoid it. After all, we don't have the final say in this matter …" Lin Yi shrugged.
"Then should we leave now?" Naipao asked.
"Works …" Lin Yi said as he carried Qiqi on his back. She wouldn't be of any help in the fight against the spirit beasts, whether she was awake or not. Carrying her wouldn't make a difference.
Tian Chan had been listening to the conversation between Lin Yi and Naipao the whole time, and when Naipao suggested leaving, Tian Chan questioned, "Doing that … I'm afraid we'll attract even more spirit beasts. The beasts here seem to be very united, and if we kill too many of them, we'll be surrounded by a horde of beasts. It'll be hard for us to leave then."
"But this is the only way. You're a girl, don't say anything." Naipao was naturally displeased at Tian Chan's rebuttal. In his eyes, Tian Chan was on the same level as Qiqi. If it weren't for the fact that she was Lin Yi's friend, he wouldn't even bother talking to her.
"Haha …" Tian Chan smiled and didn't say anything. Naipao was right- this was the only way, and it was the only way. Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to get to the portal smoothly!
It wasn't a long way, but from the looks of it, these spirit beasts were all very excited. They'd probably be surrounded as soon as they got out.
The sky was bright now, and Lin Yi carried Qiqi, Tian Chan, Naipao, and the pig out of the safe area, heading towards the portal. It was fine at first, but they didn't get far before two Yellow class spirit beasts locked onto them!
"Jiji! (I'm a Mystic late phase peak, I order you to leave!) " The Skybolt Pig barked twice at the two yellow-ranked spirit beasts. Although the two yellow-ranked spirit beasts were unwilling, they still obediently left.
Lin Yi just remembered that Skybolt pig was a Mystic late phase peak, and could suppress spirit beasts below that level.
Naipao was very tensered- these two spirit beasts were only Golden class, but they were different from humans. Some of them were already extremely strong when they were Golden class, but some of them weren't even that strong when they reached Sky class.
But, he didn't expect Lin Yi's spirit beasts to be able to suppress Yellow class spirit beasts. "I didn't think that this would make it so much easier for us to get to the portal. As long as we don't run into any Earth or Sky class spirit beasts, we'll be fine!"
Skybolt pig nodded his head proudly. In fact, he was just trying to give it a try. The order from the Five Evils Dragon was lifted, but he didn't know if the spiritual beasts would be suppressed immediately. Now, it seemed that it was feasible.
Tian Chan was a bit surprised as well, and she looked at Skybolt pig with praise.
With the Skybolt Pig, their journey was much smoother. Firstly, the Skybolt Pig could sense high-rank spirit beasts' auras, thus it could warn everyone from far away. As such, they could change their paths and not walk in a straight line. This way, they could avoid encountering high-rank spirit beasts as much as possible.
Some of the low class spirit beasts, on the other hand, didn't care about it at all, and used the suppression system to hide from high class spirit beasts. It was a smooth journey, but sometimes, when things went too smoothly, other people … Or more accurately, spirit beasts would be jealous of them!
Skybolt pig could hide from high class spirit beasts, and deal with low class spirit beasts, but all of this was noticed by the sound wave flying spirit beasts that were in charge of sending messages in the Five Malefic Barrens. They reported it to the Five Malefic Dragon immediately!
The Five Malefic Dragon heard the report, and it was a bit shocked! Before, it let the spirit beasts go back to their original state because it wanted Lin Yi and the others to stay here forever. But the Five Malefic Dragon was prideful, and it didn't want to kill a few human practitioners just because of it.
But now, the Five Malefic Dragon was a bit pissed off. These little guys were pretty smart, weren't they? But that didn't matter- the Five Malefic Dragon was going all out this time. It couldn't tolerate anything that wasn't under its control in its territory!
The Five Malefic Dragon wanted Lin Yi and the others to know that it was the king of this place, and that no matter how smart they were, it was useless!
