As soon as Yi Tian entered the Infernal Infernal Sea of Flames, he discovered that he was being watched. This was the first time someone had dared to mess with him ever since he had reached the Grand Ascension Stage.
After chatting with the three pursuers, Yi Tian was surprised to discover that they were following him because he had similarities with them.
Speaking of which, Yi Tian had thought it was nonsense at first. Who would believe that a Grand Ascension Stage cultivator would have similarities with a Severed Soul Stage cultivator?
After that, Yi Tian quietly returned and directly captured the leader, then brought him to an uninhabited area to search his soul to find out the reason. However, the results gave him a huge shock. It turned out that the three pursuers were just lackeys on the stage, and there was a late-Body Integration Stage cultivator behind them.
After thinking about it carefully, he realized that there were very few late-Body Integration Stage cultivators in the Devil Realm. Aside from the One-eyed Devil Clan's One-eyed Devil Clan, no one in the other seven major clans could reach this stage. Even someone as powerful as the Infernal Infernal Devil Emperor had only reached the bottleneck of the late-Body Integration Stage. In all honesty, the Infernal Infernal Devil Emperor was only at the pinnacle of the mid-Body Integration Stage.
Speaking of which, the only late-Body Integration Stage cultivators who could reach that level were the clones of the two Grand Ascension Stage cultivators. Thinking back, Great Heavenly Demon Dugu Jimo's clone had been destroyed when the Ning Ruilin self-detonated. Thus, Devil Sage Bao Di's clone should be the only late-Body Integration Stage cultivator left in the Devil Realm.
However, if that was the case, didn't that mean that Devil Sage Bao Di had already sensed his movements? With that thought, Yi Tian couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine. Fortunately, his expression returned to normal after three breaths of time. In his mind, he analyzed the situation when he had met Martial Uncle Wu Xiang in the depths of the Taiqing Pavilion in the Spirit Realm.
In Yi Tian's judgment at that time, there was no reason for him not to recognize his clone in the Devil Realm. Furthermore, since Devil Sage Bao Di knew that he had reached the Grand Ascension Stage, he definitely wouldn't have sent his clone to provoke him.
However, he had no idea who this late-Body Integration cultivator was. After thinking about it, Yi Tian hurriedly took out a communication jade slip and briefly explained what he had encountered. Then, he recorded the characteristics of the other two before sending it out.
Since there was a change in the situation here, it was necessary to inform Du Tong. Since he had been in the Devil World for a long time, he would naturally have a different view on this matter.
In less than an hour, a ray of light flashed across the sky and flew toward Yi Tian. When the ray of light stopped in front of him, Yi Tian reached out and received it. It was Single Eye's reply. Yi Tian picked up the communication jade talisman and glanced at it. He saw a long string of messages written on it. During this period of time, Du Tong was also very surprised by the information he had received. His reply also stated that there were no other late-Body Integration cultivators in the Elder Devil Realm aside from himself.
However, Du Tong also mentioned his concerns. For someone to reach such a cultivation base, he definitely wasn't a nobody. The most likely possibility was that he was a clone of a Grand Ascension Stage cultivator. However, if that was the case, Devil Sage Bao Di had sent a clone to infiltrate the Infernal Prison Imperial Capital, so it wouldn't be difficult for him to find Du Tong.
If that was the case, why hadn't he attacked him yet? However, Du Tong also had some doubts at the end of the communication jade slip. The current situation seemed to be very unclear, so he felt that it was best to act according to plan. However, everyone had to be more cautious than before. The best result would be to ferret out that late-Body Integration cultivator.
In this regard, Du Tong also expressed his opinion. Two of the three pursuers had escaped, so he would be the one to deal with them.
Seeing this, Yi Tian's face didn't show any joy at all. He had no interest in tracking down these two 'lackeys'. However, the identity of the person behind them did make him somewhat apprehensive.
Setting these matters aside, he still had to continue with the schedule of the Joust for a Spouse Convention. With that thought, the corner of Yi Tian's mouth twitched slightly, and his figure disappeared on the spot.
Using the map given by the Infernal Prison Devil Emperor, Yi Tian effortlessly found several large gathering points of the Infernal Prison Tinder Essence, and easily collected a lot of precious materials again.
At the same time, he spread out his divine sense along the way, clearly exploring the area within a radius of three thousand kilometers. Yi Tian adhered to the principle of non-aggression towards the cultivators around him, and avoided them as much as possible.
Two days later, Yi Tian finished his work and hurried toward the entrance of the secret realm. After flying for several thousand kilometers, his divine sense quickly found the location of the entrance.
However, at this moment, there seemed to be a large amount of spiritual pressure gathering there. Needless to say, something must have happened. Moreover, after Yi Tian's divine sense probed, he found that the three Heavenly Demons were currently amidst the gathering of spiritual pressure. Dugu Canglang, who was originally in the late Demigod Stage, had a long-term increase in his spiritual pressure, and now, he was in the early Demigod Stage.
Unexpectedly, he chose to advance to the Demigod Stage in the Infernal Prison Sea of Flames. In this way, after his strength increased, he naturally wouldn't let others have an easy time.
As for Dugu Canglang, he didn't appear at the entrance. Presumably, he should have returned after taking care of the two Demigod Stage cultivators. However, he didn't know what had happened. After thinking about it, Yi Tian's expression couldn't help but become a little gloomy. It was as if this Joust for a Spouse Convention wasn't going smoothly, and everything wasn't going in his favor.
After ten breaths, when he entered the area within a thousand kilometers of the entrance, he was naturally noticed by the demigod cultivators. Soon, when he arrived at the entrance, he saw the three Heavenly Demons and several other Demigod Stage cultivators setting up defenses at the entrance, blocking the other cultivators outside.
After landing, many cultivators seemed to be arguing with Dugu Canglang. After Yi Tian's divine sense swept past, he found that the Heavenly Demons had set up a checkpoint here. Anyone who wanted to leave had to hand over a tenth of the Infernal Prison Fire Velvet Essence in their Manna Bottle.
However, the three leaders of the Heavenly Fiend Race didn't seem to care at all. Dugu Canglang, on the other hand, looked as if it was only natural.
A few cultivators who were anxious to leave had no choice but to hand over their Manna Bottles and let the Heavenly Demons take a tenth of it as a toll. Then, with a dejected expression, he took the Heina Bottle and left the place.
As for the people in the air, they were watching the situation below. They seemed to be very angry at the Heavenly Demons' actions, but they were powerless and didn't have a way to deal with it.
He looked around and saw that everyone wanted to wait and see if Dugu Canglang had arrived in time. Yi Tian thought about it and didn't say anything. He directly descended and arrived before the checkpoint set up by the Heavenly Devil Clan cultivators before slowly walking forward with large strides.
His actions naturally attracted the attention of everyone present. Many of them had worried expressions on their faces, and some of them even had playful expressions on their faces. They wanted to see if the person in front of them would yield to the Heavenly Demons' tyranny.
When Dugu Canglang saw him, his expression changed. Among the contestants, he was the one who was most unwilling to face him.
However, he didn't want to lose face in front of everyone. Otherwise, it would be very difficult for him to establish himself in the Demonic Realm.
Seeing him approach, Dugu Canglang could only brace himself and ask, "Rogue Cultivator Yi Er, do you want to return to the Infernal Prison Imperial Palace?"
Pausing abruptly, Yi Tian looked up and gently lifted his cloak, revealing the face of the Sky Demon Race's true form.
Speaking of which, the characteristics of the Heavenly Demons were very obvious. At least, outsiders could tell at a glance. Dugu Canglang's expression changed slightly. To put it bluntly, he had long wanted to find out who this' Yi Er 'in front of him was. After seeing his true appearance for the first time today, Dugu Canglang was slightly stunned. He didn't expect him to be a cultivator of the same race. But why would he participate in the competition with the Rogue Cultivator Alliance's quota?
Although he thought about it, Dugu Canglang smiled warmly and said, "So it's a cultivator of the same race. I didn't expect you to participate with this identity. It must be the elders' idea."
"If you have any questions, find time to ask Dugu Yaoxiang," Yi Tian replied indifferently.
Dugu Canglang's face twitched when he heard Dugu Yaoxiang's name. He clearly knew the question behind it. Although the Heavenly Demons wanted to keep the Infernal Prison Devils and the other major races in check, there were different opinions within the clan on how to deal with it.
For example, Dugu Yaoxiang's strategy was different from Great Heavenly Demon Dugu Jimo's. After all, the former had personally experienced the invasion of the Spirit Realm and had a different view of what the clan wanted to do.
Dugu Canglang naturally made some connections when he heard this, and Yi Tian naturally wanted to stir up the situation. He had already expected Dugu Yaoxiang's name. With his friendship with him, as long as Dugu Canglang had a grudge against him, Dugu Yaoxiang would definitely make a big fuss about it. In any case, it would be a waste if he didn't use this opportunity. Moreover, with him stirring up the situation, it would make the situation even more confusing.
It was impossible that Dugu Yaoxiang didn't have any prejudice against Great Heavenly Demon Dugu Jimo back then. Dugu Yaoxiang remembered that he had been treated as a sacrificial pawn and left behind to resist the Spirit Realm's encirclement when the Demon Race's army retreated.
After Dugu Yaoxiang let him return to the Demon Race, he would naturally be on guard against Great Heavenly Demon Dugu Jimo. However, after the Spirit Realm's invasion, the Heavenly Demon Race's talents had withered. Although they still had two Grand Ascension Stage cultivators, they only had Dugu Yaoxiang as their Body Integration Stage cultivator. They couldn't have Grand Ascension Stage cultivators repeatedly appear in the Demon Realm, so the Heavenly Demon Race still had a lot of things that required Dugu Yaoxiang's participation. His position would gradually stabilize again, at least until a second Body Integration Stage cultivator appeared in the Heavenly Demon Race.
After hearing his words, Dugu Canglang's face clearly trembled a few times. Although he really wanted to stop the person in front of him, his rationality told him not to. Moreover, the two bodyguards beside him also turned their heads slightly when they heard Dugu Yaoxiang's name. They solemnly looked at him and then lowered their heads to whisper a few words to Dugu Canglang.
After three breaths, Dugu Canglang sighed and moved aside, "Fellow Yi Er, please leave first."
"There's something that I don't know if I should say or not." Yi Tian didn't move directly, but opened his mouth and said lightly.
Hearing this, Dugu Canglang's face also showed a little strange, but a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes. He politely replied, "What other advice does clan brother have?"
"There are four or five powerful people behind. They're not people you can deal with now." Yi Tian said lightly.
Hearing this, the corner of Dugu Canglang's eyes twitched slightly. He naturally knew what this meant. However, it didn't seem to be in line with his character to admit defeat. Therefore, even though he repeatedly said yes, he didn't have the slightest intention of removing this checkpoint.
When Yi Tian saw this, he didn't say anything else and walked straight towards the entrance. In any case, he was just giving him advice out of goodwill. At the same time, he also wanted to prevent Dugu Canglang from messing up this' marriage by joust '. After all, with his character, if it weren't for Great Sky Demon Dugu Jimo, he would have killed Dugu Canglang in front of him long ago. Why would he be so careful?
After saying that, Yi Tian didn't say anything else. He put on the breath concealing cloak again and walked straight forward. He went through the passage and returned to the main hall of the Flaming Prison Royal Dynasty.
When he came to the outside world, there were already a group of people waiting for him. Especially Concubine Yan, after knowing his whereabouts, also sent her confidant to wait outside. After leaving the 'Flaming Prison Fire Sea' secret realm, the cultivators of the Flaming Prison Royal Family came up to ask for the Heina Bottle containing the 'Flaming Prison Tinder Essence'. Yi Tian didn't waste time. After handing over his share, he found an empty place for the candidates to rest and sat down cross-legged to wait.
After a short while, in the next two hours, people came back from the entrance of the passage one after another. They also handed over the Heina Bottle in their hands in front of many members of the royal family after going out. At this time, it was absolutely impossible to fake it.
Yi Tian saw a large number of people come out. The last few people were Dugu Canglang and the others. The last one was unsurprisingly Dugu Canglang's original body.
However, after counting the people, there were more than a hundred people who went in and only ninety or so came out. At least ten people were left in the 'Flaming Prison Fire Sea' forever, including the three people who were chasing him.
While the counting process was in full swing, Yi Tian quietly looked at Dugu Canglang. At this time, Dugu Canglang walked towards him and sat down cross-legged in the empty space about ten feet away. Then he transmitted his voice in his ear, "There might be trouble this time."
