Beauty and the Bodyguard

However, the three levels weren't just because of the environment-he'd refined the Wandu golden core fruit into a Supreme-grade golden core, and used it with his training. Even so, it was enough to shock people.

Golden core full phase was only one step away from nascent soul, and he'd just finished using up all his golden cores. Lin Yi could choose to continue practitioning here, but this wasn't the same as all the breakthroughs he'd made before-it wasn't something that could be done just by doing it.

He was the strongest golden core stage practitioner who had broken through perfectly, and his strength was strong enough. In addition, he was in a unique training environment, so although Lin Yi's inhuman breakthrough was unexpected, it was still within reason. It wasn't as ridiculous as it seemed.

But forming a nascent soul was different-strength, luck, state of mind, and pills were all indispensable. Only when one was fully prepared would there be a chance of success. Lin Yi had just broken through, and even if he didn't need to stabilize his strength because of the five elements killing intent, he still didn't have everything ready.

It wasn't that he couldn't stay here and continue practitioning, but it wasn't as cost-effective as before. Lin Yi knew that practitioning wasn't the way to go-he had to relax a little to get twice the results with half the effort. Plus, there were only two months left before the deadline, and there wasn't much time left after the long journey.

After giving the bird an order, Lin Yi used his pure Qi to cover both of them. He couldn't do this when he first came in, but now that he'd gotten three levels stronger, it was a piece of cake.

The spirit Bird carried Lin Yi and immediately rushed into the five poisons swamp at the top. Although the mud resistance was very strong, with Lin Yi's Qi opening the way, plus the spirit bird's improvement in the past three months, it didn't look like it was struggling at all. With this momentum, it wouldn't be difficult to fly out of the five poisons swamp.

What was worth mentioning was that the dragon-like killing intent didn't seem to care about Lin Yi and the spiritual bird at all. Even when it accidentally touched them, there was no reaction at all. It was clear that they really treated Lin Yi's Qi as their own.

The man and bird travelled through the five poisons swamp for about an hour, and Lin Yi could clearly feel the resistance above him getting weaker and weaker. He perked up-it seemed like they were going to see the light again. The mysterious space below was bright and well-lit, but the feeling couldn't be compared to the feeling on the ground. Only when they were back on the ground could they truly experience what it meant to breathe freely again-it was a human's natural instinct.

Finally, just as he was about to rush out of the five poisons swamp, the voice of the ghostly thing suddenly rang in his mind."Stop!"

"What's wrong, senior?" Lin Yi didn't know the reason, but he still stopped the spirit Bird and looked around vigilantly, thinking that he was being watched. The Jade didn't alert him at all, however. Could it be that the old sect of West Mountain was still up there? it'd been three months, but that couldn't be ...

No matter how much the old sect master of West Mountain hated him, as a Big Shot of evil cultivators during the opening period and the second-in-command of the West Mountain evil sect, he couldn't be so bored as to keep guarding this five poisons swamp, right?

Anyone with a normal mind would have thought that they were already dead. Could it be that the evil cultivators not only had abnormal skills, but also had abnormal brains?

"There's someone up there. " The ghastly thing said in a deep voice.

"What? There was really someone guarding it? It can't be that old monster from West Mountain sect, right?" Lin Yi was surprised. The mud of the five poisons swamp could block out divine sense, so he couldn't feel anything outside even though he was very close to the ground. He asked,"Senior, is your divine sense not affected by this swamp?"

"Of course, it is affected, but it is only weakened a lot. It is not as bad as you, who can't sense it at all and become a living blind." The ghastly thing laughed.

"Ugh ..." It was Lin Yi's turn to be envious. They were both using divine sense, but he was able to cut it off just like that. He couldn't sense anything at all in the five poisons swamp, but the thing was only weakened. It was really frustrating.

"Hehe, you don't have to look like that. If you want to break through the mud barrier, the strength of your spiritual sense must reach an amazing level. Only a few high-level spirit beasts and a small number of top human masters can do it. Your level is still too low. You haven't even learned the most basic spiritual sense techniques. You're still far from this step." The ghastly thing explained with a smile.

"So that's how it is. No wonder I was detected by the Vermillion bird's divine sense in the southern island's dense forest. At that time, for safety reasons, I clearly smeared mud on my body. I thought that the mud had been on my body for too long and could no longer block the perception of divine sense after getting rid of it." Lin Yi said with a bitter smile.

"There is indeed such a situation, but even if the mud isn't destroyed, you can't escape the Vermillion bird's perception. Although I've always disliked this guy, I have to say that although this guy is inferior to me in every aspect, it's not inferior to me in the area of divine sense, which I'm best at." The ghastly thing sighed.

Lin Yi nodded. He wasn't surprised at all. After all, the Vermilion Bird was one of the top-tier beings in the spirit beast clan. If he didn't have this level of strength, how could he control those powerful and unruly spirit beasts?

"Senior, what's the situation up there?" Lin Yi pointed at the top of his head and asked. What he wanted to know the most right now was whether the person guarding there was the old sect master of West Mountain.

"Listen to it yourself." The ghastly thing scoffed.

"Ugh, if I could hear it, I wouldn't need to ask you ..." Lin Yi was speechless.

"Hehe, of course you can't hear it on your own, but with me here, you can hear it if I want you to." The demonic thing smiled profoundly. He didn't know what kind of magical method he used, but Lin Yi actually heard the movement above!

"Awesome! It's simply a divine skill!" Lin Yi's eyes lit up as he complimented her. He asked curiously,"Senior, how did you do it?"

"It's very simple, I used my spirit sense to connect with your spirit sense, so now you and I are sharing spirit sense. " The ghastly thing explained in a casual manner. (To be continued.)
