Just like that, the entire city was left with only the Evil Demon's howls. Some sat in the streets, some on rooftops, some inside rooms, and others, like Ye Lin, sat atop the city walls.
Just like that, they quietly listened to the Evil Demon's howls.
Time passed bit by bit.
Thirty hours vanished in the blink of an eye.
Daylight arrived once more.
The Evil Demon vanished as well.
Daytime was when they could act. Though Evil Demons could still appear during the day, at the very least, cultivators' six senses would not be blocked.
Even if they encountered an Evil Demon, they had the strength to fight.
And a chance to escape.
"Thirty-two Primordial Unity Golden Immortals died in a single night. A bunch of fools who overestimated themselves—did they really think they could defy heaven and change their fate here?"
At that moment, a middle-aged man sitting not far from Ye Lin rose atop the city wall. Gazing into the distance, his face was full of rueful sighs.
Every Primordial Unity Golden Immortal who came here sought to defy heaven and change their fate, to step into the Great Luo realm in one stroke.
But while those four words, defy heaven and change fate, were easy enough to say, putting them into practice was far, far from easy.
Ye Lin slowly stood. As he watched sunlight blanket the earth once again, he too set off, his figure swiftly leaving this so-called safe zone.
"This sunlight is not the light of a real sun. It is a special radiance emitted by a magic artifact."
Walking through the sky, Ye Lin stretched out a hand and looked at the light falling upon it, his brow faintly furrowing.
This light was completely different from the sunlight he had encountered before.
