Chapter 83 (continued)
Astral Realm beings?
We can't beat them.
Divine Miracle Core?
We can't beat them.
The mastermind and the remnants of cults?
My goodness, please don't let them target me!
As for when this Divine Miracle will be erased... even if the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up. Wang Ruika can't worry about that; he just needs to take care of himself.
Everyone else was heading towards the inner city, but Li Yang had had enough of staying there.
After a week, she successfully advanced to the Third Grade Realm and accumulated a considerable amount of lifespan. Her courtyard was now fully planted...
But that's far from enough.
Li Yang was right; after advancing to the Third Grade Realm, her need for lifespan increased.
In 100 years, you can only increase your Physique Points by a maximum of two or three points, and that's assuming no unexpected events occur.
As she advanced to the Third Grade Realm, the lifespan she gained from killing the Star Plant was drastically reduced.
Originally, killing Third Grade Star Plant would grant 100 years of lifespan, but now it's only 30 years.
The situation is even worse for the Second Grade Realm Star Plant, whose value has plummeted to the level of ten years.
So even though there are already more than 50 Star Plant (a mix of second and Third Grade) planted in the yard, Li Yang's daily lifespan income is only... less than 1500 years.
What could you accomplish in 1500?
It can't even fill half of a Star Aperture!
What distressed Li Yang even more was that her supplies were severely insufficient, making it difficult to expand the planting scale at present.
She needs the Star Recovery Pill!
Li Yang decided to go out and see if she could find that Brother Shock.
After spending a week in this small courtyard, Li Yang was certain of at least one thing: her position was very special, and she had most likely gotten separated from the main group.
The advantage is that neither those who wanted to ambush her nor the remnants of the Descending Star Cult could find her.
The downside is that Li Yang can't find anyone else.
While it was still light and the Star Plant in the courtyard were not yet ripe, Li Yang said, "Second Brother, you go ahead with your work, I'll go take a look."
After so many days, Little Ox still wasn't used to being called "Second Brother." His ears twitched, and he quickly replied, "Okay..."
Li Yang then instructed him, "If I'm not back by dark, you'll direct Star Plant to protect the courtyard."
The Little Ox's heart tightened, and it said, "I understand."
Li Yang softened her voice again and said, "If I encounter any of your people, I will bring them back with me."
The Little Ox's eyes lit up, and he immediately said, "Thank you, big... big brother."
The "adult" became the "emperor".
Li Yang was too lazy to correct him anymore.
Li Yang, transformed into Little Ox and carrying Lianxin on her back, finally walked out of the house.
Now that she's reached the Third Grade Realm, she's quite confident.
Even if they encounter an ambush, they can easily escape.
After walking for more than an hour, Li Yang didn't sense a single human, but he did sense some Astral Realm beings recuperating.
She became increasingly certain of what she had in mind.
That large horde of the Astral Realm creatures that night were heading straight for her.
Is someone secretly directing these Astral Realm beings?
Li Yang wasn't flustered. Even if someone was secretly directing things, that person's power was limited; otherwise, he could have commanded all the Astral Realm beings.
The occasional appearance of the Astral Realm creatures has actually made hunting and breeding easier for Li Yang.
Nearly another hour passed, and Li Yang was unsure if she was heading in the right direction. She had marked the path along the way to avoid getting lost.
Whenever he senses Astral Realm being, Li Yang will observe its species.
If it's a berserk Star Plant, just kill it.
If it's Star Beast, first determine if it belongs to the Plow Ox Clan; if not, simply bypass it.
She simply couldn't be bothered to waste her energy on the Star Beast!
Moreover, Li Yang has not encountered another mentally sound Star Beast since then.
I wonder how the Little Ox's family is doing.
If they hide like Little Ox, they'll be quite difficult to find, but the advantage is that there won't be much danger.
Around 3 PM, Li Yang got a little tired and thought about going back first and exploring in a different direction tomorrow...
Lianxin suddenly spoke up, "Fellow Daoist, there are humans."
Li Yang's spirits lifted.
Finally, I've seen a "living person"!
Lianxin reported the details to her, "Three people, the highest being at the Third Grade Realm Fifth Stage."
Upon hearing this, Li Yang immediately sensed danger.
These people are definitely not ordinary Divine Miracle seekers; they are very likely here to ambush the Agronomy Department.
Li Yang herself had spent some time in the Divine Miracle, and she knew very well that even if she was at the Peak Second Grade Realm when she entered, no matter how hard she cultivated, it would be impossible to reach the Third Grade Fifth Stage in such a short time.
The most likely explanation is that... they were originally at the Third Grade Fifth Stage, and deliberately suppressed their cultivation level before entering.
Who would suppress their cultivation level to enter?
Even the remnants of the Descending Star Cult couldn't do this; it could only be an assassin arranged by the person behind the scenes.
Lianxin added, "They seem to be in an ambush..."
Li Yang suddenly felt a pang of anxiety.
She currently resembles Little Ox and has just arrived, so it's impossible that she was the one they were ambushing.
So...
These three people are ambushing students from the Agronomy Department!
Who is it?
Li Yang gripped Shadow Moon tightly, ready to save the person at any moment.
To Li Yang's surprise, the person walking confidently down the street was the very person she had been searching for.
Jiang Yuqing thought he had lost track of the group, but he didn't expect that after the group realized he was being followed, they specifically left three people behind to ambush and kill him.
Jiang Yuqing were somewhat famous, but these vicious mercenaries didn't care about that.
So what if he's Heavenly Chosen of the Jiang Family?
They slaughtered countless Heavenly Chosen in the Astral Realm!
The three were very cautious, wanting to see if Jiang Yuqing had any companions.
If so, then ambush them together.
Jiang Yuqing. Even though he was relatively cautious, he still underestimated the evil in human nature.
He was so focused on finding Li Yang that he never imagined he was being watched.
The three rushed out from the shadows and unleashed a barrage of Star Skill at Jiang Yuqing...
They were all melee-type Star Wielders, with extremely fast attacks. Combined with their superior cultivation level, they could kill Jiang Yuqing in no time.
In that split second, Jiang Yuqing instantly appeared a meter away, dodging their fatal blow.
Cold sweat trickled down Jiang Yuqing, and the million-dollar "Teleportation" Star Curse in his hand had already turned into a wisp of smoke.
That was so close!
I almost lost my life!
If Li Yang hadn't reminded him in his Spirit Sea, Jiang Yuqing wouldn't have had time to use the Star Curse!
[Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points increased by 1000 points.]
After understanding the three people's cultivation levels, Li Yang knew that he could not kill them instantly.
Since an instant kill is impossible, Jiang Yuqing will have to rely on himself to survive.
Therefore, she quickly established Spirit Connection with Jiang Yuqing and conveyed the message to him in detail.
It was precisely because of this that Jiang Yuqing was able to unleash the Teleportation Star Curse in the face of the three's thunderous attack.
Li Yang quickly asked again, "Can you escape?"
Jiang Yuqing: "I still have a Star Curse Teleportation Spell, but it only covers a meter. I can't escape!"
"Since we can't escape," Li Yang said, "Then let's kill them."
[Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points increased by 1000 points.]
Jiang Yuqing's voice trembled even in the Spirit Sea: "I'm just an alchemist, I..."
"You hold them off from the front, I'll make my move from behind."
[Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points increased by 1000 points.]
Their exchange was incredibly rapid; in reality, less than a second had passed before Jiang Yuqing turned and ran.
The three men who were trying to ambush Jiang Yuqing realized they had been discovered, so they stopped hiding and jumped out one by one to rush towards Jiang Yuqing.
"Kill him!" a deep male voice commanded.
Just then, a small "Astral Realm creature" suddenly made its move.
The three men completely disregarded him. The leader frowned and said, "Where did this Plow Ox Clan come from? You're asking for death!"
After saying that, he slapped the Little Ox with his palm.
Unexpectedly, this seemingly frail Little Ox unleashed a Star Combat Department Burst-Speed Combo, striking directly at his vital points.
He quickly turned around to fight back, only to find that he couldn't stop them at all.
With a soft "plop".
Shadow Moon pierced his ribs.
Then several more flashes of cold light appeared; he sensed the presence of death.
Li Yang wouldn't hold back; her attacks were all deadly.
She is now at the Third Grade Realm, although she is still far from her expected level, but with her extremely high Spirit Points, she is capable of killing the person in front of her.
In addition, the Star Combat Department Burst-Speed Combo are best used to catch opponents off guard. Caught off guard, the opponent dies on the spot after Li Yang's fierce attack.
Jiang Yuqing was stunned.
[Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points increased by 1000 points.]
He couldn't even figure out what he was shocked about.
On one hand, Li Yang acted ruthlessly and decisively, sending the person away on the spot; on the other hand, could this adorable Little Ox be Li Yang? What the heck!
[Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points increased by 1000 points.]
Sure enough, his Shock Points just kept rising whenever he saw Li Yang!
The other two stopped chasing Jiang Yuqing and quickly turned around to counterattack, intending to work together to kill the Plow Ox Clan.
In their eyes, the Plow Ox Clan was an extremely weak race.
Their entire Realm Domain was destroyed, and the survivors were barely clinging to life. No one knew where this Little Ox got the courage to declare war on them.
Although one of them fell, the two survivors assumed it was due to carelessness, that he had been ambushed and killed by the Plow Ox Clan.
If they face it head-on, they can easily take down this Little Ox.
Jiang Yuqing realized what was happening and quickly threw a ball of fire at them.
