After confirming his exposure, Cihang didn't even have time to recover his cultivation. After trapping Huoyi, he directly fled.
With a congenital spiritual treasure in hand, Cihang wasn't afraid of Huoyi, who had just entered the Golden Immortal realm.
The real trouble was the Taiyi Demon King behind him.
The Glazed Pure Vase could help him fight above his level, but against a Taiyi Golden Immortal, he only had a chance to escape.
Cihang directly swallowed a drop of Purple Bamboo Spiritual Liquid to recover his cultivation. Although this would waste most of the spiritual energy, he couldn't afford to care.
At a time like this, he had to maintain his peak cultivation as much as possible.
Cihang knew that this period wouldn't be smooth sailing, but he hadn't expected it to be so troublesome.
The problems on Kunlun weren't resolved yet, and he had already provoked the Demon Race.
Although the Demon Race hadn't reached its peak yet, its domineering aura was already evident.
He didn't dwell on why he was discovered even though he had destroyed the aura of the great battle.
Ultimately, it was because his luck was too poor at the moment, and he had underestimated the impact of luck backlash.
This time it was Huoyi, who had just entered the Golden Immortal realm. Perhaps next time it would be a mid-stage or even late-stage Golden Immortal.
Compared to the rogue cultivators of Kunlun, these demons were more troublesome.
Despite the trouble, Cihang had no intention of letting Huoyi go.
The reason was the same as before.
As his cultivation recovered, Cihang diverted some of his attention to activate the Glazed Pure Vase, completely refining it with the Three Lights Divine Water.
The moment Huoyi's primordial spirit dissipated, Cihang used a divine soul secret technique to read his memories.
He also wanted to know how he had been exposed.
Furthermore, only by knowing the enemy's background could he better deal with them.
However, as he read the memories, Cihang's expression kept changing, filled with both relief and worry.
That Chiyan was the most beloved offspring of the Demon King Chiyu, and he carried a primordial spirit imprint of Chiyu.
Once Chiyan encountered a fatal danger, this primordial spirit imprint would be activated.
Because Chiyan was refined by the Three Lights Divine Water, Chiyu's strand of primordial spirit was dissolved by the Moonlight Divine Water before it could manifest.
But even so, Chiyu still captured a trace of his aura.
It was with this trace of aura that Huoyi was able to find him.
At this moment, Cihang couldn't help but feel a little fortunate.
If he had directly killed Chiyan, he would have had to face the primordial spirit of a Taiyi Golden Immortal.
Now, although the other party had a trace of his aura, the spiritual treasure had the ability to conceal his aura, so they didn't discover the existence of the spiritual treasure.
Otherwise, it wouldn't have been Huoyi who came, but Chiyu himself.
But now that Huoyi was dead, the next demon cultivator to come would definitely be stronger.
Given the Demon Race's dominance, they probably wouldn't stop until he was dead.
Chiyu held a not-low position in the Demon Race; he was already a Taiyi Demon King, and behind him was the Demon God Bifang.
Thinking of this, Cihang couldn't help but get a headache.
"It's clearly no longer suitable to return to the South Sea at this moment. Those demons of Chiyu's lineage won't let me leave either."
Cihang's escape light didn't stop, and he was contemplating a solution.
It was indeed not suitable for him to kill any more demons.
Currently, only Chiyu resented him, but if he continued to kill them, other demons might also take action.
The Demon Race was powerful now, and even the Three Pure Ones had to avoid their edge, let alone him.
"It seems I still have to bide my time!"
Cihang's escape light suddenly flashed, and he headed straight for Buzhou Mountain.
Although Buzhou Mountain was a gathering place for countless demons, it was also the ancestral land of the Witch Race.
It was the center of the Great Desolation and the pillar of heaven and earth. Neither of the two races aiming to dominate the Great Desolation could give it up.
For him, only the Witch Race's territory was the safest.
As long as he could delay for a while, he could seize the opportunity to escape.
It was also fortunate that he was currently in the center of the Great Desolation, not too far from Buzhou Mountain.
Cihang immediately accelerated his escape light, heading straight for Buzhou Mountain.
He was not yet out of danger and dared not be careless in the slightest.
On the other side, not long after Cihang left, a powerful cultivator descended upon a nameless peak.
"Huoyi's aura dissipated here.
What impressive skills, to actually have Huoyi fall into your hands."
"But my Crimson Firebird clan isn't so easily killed."
Although Chiyu was smiling, his smile was chillingly sinister.
"Boom!"
As Chiyu left, a streak of fire shattered the barren mountain where Cihang had been.
Chiyu's direction of departure was the same as Cihang's.
Although Cihang didn't know that danger was imminent, he was actively preparing.
He hadn't had time to examine the spiritual treasures of those demon races before, but now he began to sort through them, looking for anything useful.
The Glazed Pure Vase was good, but a congenital spiritual treasure was too conspicuous.
In the end, Cihang selected only three spiritual treasures: the Crimson Feather Umbrella, the Fire Spirit Pearl, and the Void-Escaping Shuttle.
Especially the Void-Escaping Shuttle, it was actually a top-grade Houtian spiritual treasure, a life-saving magical artifact that Chiyu had bestowed upon Chiyan.
It was a pity that Chiyan hadn't used it, but now it was helping him, Cihang.
Cihang immediately began to refine the Void-Escaping Shuttle.
With the Purple Bamboo Spiritual Liquid replenishing his magic power, and the Void-Escaping Shuttle being only a Houtian spiritual treasure, Cihang quickly refined it and made it his own.
Although he hadn't completely refined it, controlling the Void-Escaping Shuttle allowed Cihang's speed to more than double.
Next, Cihang recognized the other two spiritual treasures as his own.
He didn't even let go of the other spiritual treasures, refining them with a special technique.
Just as Cihang relaxed, a powerful aura locked onto him.
"Not good!"
Cihang immediately used the Void-Escaping Shuttle at full power to flee.
It was actually Chiyu himself who had made a move.
"Void-Escaping Shuttle, brat, you deserve to die."
With a furious roar, a giant fiery palm slammed down towards Cihang.
"Crimson Feather Umbrella!"
"Bang!"
Cihang instantly endured immense pressure, his face turning deathly pale, a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth.
However, Cihang didn't fight back. Instead, he used the force of that palm strike to speed forward.
His methods were not weak, but they were difficult to resist against a Taiyi Golden Immortal.
The only way forward was to quickly enter the Witch Race territory.
"You still want to escape in front of me? Wishful thinking. Burning Heaven Fire Feathers!"
Chiyu let out a cold laugh and suddenly unleashed a sky full of fiery feathers that pursued Cihang.
"Explode!"
Cihang threw out several spiritual artifacts, self-destructing their origins.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
The power of the spiritual artifacts self-destructing blocked swathes of fire feathers and also halted Chiyu's pursuit.
"Explode, explode, explode!"
Seeing that this method was effective, Cihang continuously threw out spiritual artifacts.
These were all obtained from those demon races, and now they were being put to good use.
"Brat, you're seeking death!"
Cihang's actions completely enraged Chiyu. He ignored the impact of the spiritual treasures and summoned a jade seal, smashing it down towards Cihang.
"Bang, bang, bang!"
Cihang was also greatly alarmed and threw out dozens more spiritual artifacts to self-destruct.
At the same time, he summoned the Glazed Pure Vase to defend himself.
"Boom, boom, boom."
The Glazed Pure Vase withstood the attacks.
But the price was that Cihang's white daoist robe was already stained with blood.
Despite this, Cihang remained calm, controlling his escape light while fighting and fleeing.
The Three Lights Divine Water of the sun, moon, and stars were all unleashed, forcing even Chiyu to deal with them cautiously.
The Willow Branch continuously shed Life Essence, restoring Cihang's injuries and magic power.
