But it only left a few faint white marks on the surface of the skin, unable to break through the defense.
The hardness of the sheep-headed monsterās body was even harder than that of the spiritual creature, the Rock Flood Dragon!
It opened its blood-filled mouth, instantly forming a huge black vortex inside.
This created a strong suction force, making it difficult for Lou Yiās clone to break free.
āWhoosh!ā
Immediately, the sheep-headed monsterās thick white tail pierced towards Lou Yiās clone like a swimming dragon!
After delivering that strike, Lou Yiās cloneās aura had dropped to the bottom.
Despite desperately dodging, part of its body was still grazed, and half its shoulder was scraped off!
His arm and part of his flesh finally fell into the mouth of the sheep-headed monster.
The sheep-headed monster devoured the cloneās flesh without hesitation, then its eyes lit up: "Good stuff!
Strange, this flesh and that human kidās blood seem very similar, originating from the same source..."
Its eyes flashed with a bright light, and it tightly sensed the aura of Lou Yiās clone and the main body, then grinned widely, laughing uncontrollably: "I see, youāre the same person!"
Its expression became even more fervent: "What a powerful bloodline talent...
Not yet condensed a Golden Core, but can fly without external help, and can form a Dharma body...
If I completely devour you, I will surely restore the glory of my ancient ancestors!"
Up ahead, Lou Yiās clone barely escaped the sheep-headed monsterās fatal blow, covered in blood, struggling to reunite with the main body.
Upon hearing this, both the main body and the clone frowned.
āIt actually saw through it?ā
This way, the sheep-headed monster would definitely focus all its attention on the main body, making his situation even more difficult.
Lou Yi flew rapidly while bitterly pondering a countermeasure in his heart.
At the same time, he used his divination talent to seek a path to survival.
āThe path of survival is south!ā
Without a second thought, Lou Yi resolutely headed in that direction.
Behind him, the sheep-headed monster and its minions relentlessly pursued.
"You canāt escape, I must eat you, obediently merge with me!" the sheep-headed monster screeched.
"You repeating machine, canāt you come up with something else?" Lou Yi said helplessly, cursing.
āWhat is a repeating machine?ā the sheep-headed monster was stunned, not understanding Lou Yiās meaning.
Of course, its speed in chasing Lou Yi did not decrease at all.
Several great demons revealed their true forms, shaking the surroundings with their movements, creating a grand spectacle.
Such a commotion startled many human cultivators in the Shisu District along the way.
However, when they saw the lineup of monsters chasing Lou Yi, they broke into a cold sweat, hurriedly dodging to the side, fearing to be caught in it.
"What did this person do to cause so many monsters to hunt him down?"
"These monsters are too arrogant, we need to quickly notify the Trench Patrol Guest!"
"Wait a minute, that sheep-headed humanoid seems to be from the Jingsu District.
Itās said to have royal blood, its strength no less than a regular Trench Patrol Guest!"
"Hiss..."
Although they saw Lou Yi being hunted by monsters, the monsters were too powerful, and the cultivators of Shisu District didnāt know Lou Yi, so naturally, they wouldnāt risk blocking for him.
Lou Yi had no choice but to continue escaping in the direction indicated by divination.
Initially, he would occasionally shoot a fierce wave of Gang Qi behind him to try to delay them.
But the sheep-headed monster merely opened its mouth, swallowing all of Lou Yiās Gang Qi attacks, an extreme display of arrogance.
āPure energy attacks are useless against it.ā Lou Yi thought helplessly, giving up on this method.
His main combat power was in Gang Qi and melee combat, so it was naturally impossible to engage in close combat with the sheep-headed monster at this time.
Although he had an embryo of a Treasure Artifact, relying solely on the Qi Cultivation Levelās cultivation was not enough to harm the sheep-headed monster.
"Boss, this human seems to be escaping towards the direction of the Xinsu District!" the black monkey on the sheep-headed monsterās shoulder analyzed.
"Oh, then heās doomed!
Passing through the boundary of the two major districts, thereās the Fogless District, wide open, and he will have nowhere to hide!" the sheep-headed monster laughed heartily.
The pursuit continued, and after several near-death experiences, Lou Yi finally succeeded in stepping into the boundary between the Shisu District and the Xinsu District.
The surrounding gray fog grew less, and the omnipresent sulfur smell also began to fade.
Soon, Lou Yi arrived at the Fogless District, where the terrain was clear and the view unobstructed.
āIs hope here?ā Lou Yi was puzzled, finding this place even harder to hide in.
Suddenly, Lou Yiās expression changed, and he looked up at the gray sky without a sun, moon, or stars.
A feeling of immense threat, enough to make his heart race, continuously emanated from the skies above.
He instinctively activated his Disguise Talent, and the threat gradually diminished, though a stubborn trace still lingered around him.
āIs this... the lightning about to strike at any moment?ā
āMy clone has been storing Belief Power all along, and just now it mobilized a large amount of Belief Power, becoming even more closely linked...
Plus, the cooldown period since the last Heavenly Tribulation has passed, so the heavens want to impose divine punishment on my clone?ā
Lou Yi carefully sensed, and could still feel strands of Belief Power continuously entering the cloneās body.
Previously, in other areas of the abyss, not a bit of Belief Power could be received.
"Red Hero... I beg you, protect my grandson so he can pass the Scholarās exam..."
"The demon has vanished, hasnāt come to attack the city for a long time, all thanks to Red Hero bringing us this peace... Remember, even if I die, you must properly worship Lord Red Hero!"
The voices came indistinctly from within the Belief Power, sounding somewhat unclear, as if the signal was bad.
The Fogless District, rumored to possibly belong to the main world, acts as a buffer zone between the main world and the abyss.
Now it seems, this rumor must be true.
Thinking of this, Lou Yi felt invigorated.
He thought for a moment, stopped fleeing, and instead stood quietly in place, waiting for the demons pursuing him from behind.
"What are you doing?" A cold voice suddenly came from his chest, "Are you going to give up?"
Lou Yi was startled, since Master Han Yue Old Moon hadnāt spoken for a long time, he nearly forgot there was someone else on his body.
"No, you hide for a while, things might get dangerous soon."
He took out the Silver Needle Magical Artifact from his chest, and āwhooshā sent it deep into the ground beside him.
In just a few moments, the Goat-headed Demon and other demons chased over.
Seeing Lou Yi standing motionless on the spot, they were all stunned, then broke into wild laughter.
"This kid finally canāt take it anymore, heās given up!"
"Hahaha, if I were him, I would have given up long ago.
Since Iām going to die anyway, might as well make it quick, save myself from further torture!"
The Goat-headed Demon was even more excited, eyes gleaming: "Human, have you finally come to your senses?
Join with me and become part of the powerful Goat-head Clan, surely you will reach the peak of the world!"
Lou Yi was somewhat speechless, having listened to the Goat-headed Demonās mindless chatter so long his ears nearly grew calluses.
He asked, "Previously, Lu Yun, Zhou Nan, was it you who sent them to deal with me?"
"Oh, thatās simple." The Goat-headed Demon said smugly, "You humans are all a bunch obsessed with greed and profit.
All I have to do is offer a bit of benefit, and countless people will willingly serve me!"
"How do you know that eating me will surely bring you benefits?" Lou Yi asked curiously.
"I possess the bloodline of the gluttonous beast, capable of devouring all things, naturally I can sense which bloodlines are beneficial to me..." The Goat-headed Demon spoke impatiently.
It was ready to pounce, directly swallowing Lou Yi whole.
Neither it nor the surrounding demons noticed the changes occurring in the sky above the Fogless District.
āWham!ā
A dazzling purple lightning suddenly illuminated the sky.
Then.
āBoom-boom-boom!ā
Thunder erupted.
The sound of thunder started off low, but grew increasingly loud, deafening.
"Whatās going on, why is there suddenly thunder?" The White Pig Demon among the group inquired curiously.
"Iāve been in the abyss for so many years, and have never seen lightning, is something happening today?" Another double-headed Hyena Demon muttered, puzzled.
While the demons were taken aback, Lou Yiās clone, with its crippled limbs, was rapidly charging toward them!
"Is this guy coming to get himself killed?" A demonās eyes flashed with malice.
Seeing Lou Yiās cloneās unusual actions, the Goat-headed Demon grew cautious, and slowed down.
"What the hell, bad news, whatās that!!" The black monkey perched on the Goat-headed Demonās shoulder watched in horror above.
There a large mass of purple light was gathering.
āCrack!ā
Just as it finished speaking, a jagged black-purple lightning bolt fell straight down from the sky, fiercely striking towards these demons!
The heavenly lightning carried an indescribable majestic power, seemingly determined to obliterate everything in sight!
