Blood mist churned, and all was deathly silent.
Inside the camp, more than seven hundred prodigies from the various races of the Pan-Spirit Alliance sat cross-legged, most of them making use of every spare moment to recover their Source Energy or treat the wounds left by the blood mist's corrosive effects.
Twenty-three days.
Twenty-three days had passed since the Yuan Race and the Shi Race left the Blood Mist Layer.
Centered on the camp, fifteen elite teams of around fifty people each spread out in every direction like probing feelers.
Their mission was clear: they were setting up Relay Devices in an attempt to extend their perception again in this godforsaken place, where the rules were suppressed so severely.
At the same time, they were searching for and hunting Large Blood Mist Beasts in the early Star Domain Rank.
Lin Yi and Edith had carefully deliberated over the team formations before settling on them.
Fifty prodigies were enough to grind down an early Star Domain Rank Mist Beast without injury, even under the severe suppression of the blood mist.
It wasn't efficient, but it was reliable.
They were using numbers and teamwork to offset the environmental suppression and the gap in realms.
As for Lin Yi himself, he had left the main group with his clone and was acting alone.
He wasn't challenging any Giant Blood Mist Beasts. Instead, he was targeting early Star Domain Rank Blood Mist Beasts.
His clone prowled farther out in the darkness like the keenest of hunters, using its advantage in Space-Time Rules to avoid danger in advance and lock onto targets.
Whenever it found suitable prey, Lin Yi's main body would use the coordinates anchored by his clone to make a short-range Space Shuttle, then strike with the force of thunder.
