Beauty and the Bodyguard

Of course, even so, the spiritual bird's speed was not much slower. After all, even if it only used 10% of its speed, it was already much faster than before. In less than an hour, the area that the man and the bird had explored was much larger than the previous two days combined.

"Stop! There seems to be something in front!" The ghastly thing suddenly said.

"Really?" Lin Yi was shocked and quickly made the spirit Bird stop. He was excited and nervous at the same time. After two days of silence and boredom, the initial fear had been replaced by excitement. He couldn't wait to see something.

"Of course it's true, but we're too far away now. Even with my divine sense, I can only vaguely sense the existence of something, and I'm sure it's alive. I just don't know if it's a spirit beast or a human cultivator." The ghastly thing muttered.

"Ah? How can there be human cultivators in this place?" Lin Yi blinked-subconsciously, he knew that if there was anything in this place, it'd be a spirit beast, like the flood Dragon he was talking about. Why would a human practitioner appear here ...?

"Woof! What position do you have to say that, kid? aren't you a living human cultivator yourself?" The ghastly thing snorted and pouted.""Although I've said that it's hard to find a freak with all five attributes like you, there are always people better than you, so it's not strange for one or two to appear."

"Alright, it's not impossible. Then, senior, hurry up and investigate carefully. Is it a spirit beast or a human cultivator?" Lin Yi said with a bitter smile.

"That's easy. Ask the spiritual bird to move forward a little bit more, but don't get too close. It's best if I can detect it and it can't detect me." The demonic thing ordered. He was very confident in his divine sense. Even if the other party was really a flood Dragon, it was impossible for him to sense further than him, so it was not difficult to do this as long as he controlled the distance.

"Alright," he said. Lin Yi ordered the bird to continue moving forward, but at a much slower speed this time. It was practically just moving forward bit by bit, or else the other party would notice it.

After a while, Lin Yi and the spirit Bird, who weren't too nervous at first, were scared by the strange atmosphere. Whether it was humans or spirit beasts, they were all the same-they were most afraid of the unknown. If it was a Dragon in front of them, they wouldn't be so nervous.

A moment later, the thing let out a soft sound. Lin Yi tensed up and asked,""What's wrong?"

"This is so strange. Why does this aura feel so familiar?" The ghastly thing muttered in surprise.

"Familiar? Could it really be that wyrmdragon?" Lin Yi couldn't help but guess. He thought that the aura that this thing was familiar with could only be from the same race as the flood Dragon. He thought that the so-called witness reports were all wrong about the killing intent of the five elements, but he didn't expect it to be true.

"I'm not sure," The demonic thing paused for a moment and said,"this feeling doesn't seem to be as simple as being of the same race. However, I can be sure that the other party is indeed a Dragon. However, I don't know if he is a flood Dragon or not."

"How could this be? Senior, you should be able to see it clearly with your divine sense, right?" Lin Yi asked curiously. In theory, divine sense should be able to sense things much more clearly than normal five senses. It was normal that he couldn't tell other things, but he should be able to tell with one look if the person was a Dragon or not.

"You're thinking too lightly, kid. When West Mountain old sect was chasing you, I could block his divine sense. If I were to do the same to other existences, they would naturally have a way to block my divine sense perception. It's just that it's extremely difficult and not so easy." The ghastly thing said with a bitter smile.

"In that case, senior, your divine sense has been blocked by it. Could it have already noticed?" Lin Yi was taken aback-it wasn't good news to be discovered before he even had a clear idea of the enemy's background.

"No, but after reaching a certain level, whether it's you human cultivators or US spirit beasts, we will habitually release a spirit sense barrier to prevent others from spying on us. If this spirit sense barrier is high enough, even with my ability, it will be difficult to penetrate it from a long distance. At most, I can only sense a general aura, but it's difficult to know the specific situation inside, unless I directly break the other party's spirit sense barrier. However, this would alert the enemy. " The thing explained.

"So that's how it is. What do we do now?" Lin Yi asked. From the tone of this thing, he could tell that it wasn't a simple person. It might be a top-tier spirit beast. Provoking this kind of existence in a place like this was asking for trouble. They might not even be able to escape.

"If you have the guts, then continue walking forward. I'm quite interested in this fellow. However, I have to say the ugly words first. Even if this fellow is of the dragon clan, it's hard to say whether it will buy my words or not. I may not be able to protect you, so you have to think carefully before you speak. If it's safe, then just go back the way you came. After all, it can't detect us now." The damn thing said calmly, leaving the choice to Lin Yi.

Curiosity killed both the cat and the human-Lin Yi knew this very well. He decided after a moment, "Let's continue forward and see. If I don't figure out what the other party is, I can't stay in this place at ease. After all, impetuous cultivation is the most taboo. If I don't solve this problem, I'll have to give up on this rare cultivation land. So no matter what, I have to try."

"Hehe, it's good that you have this awareness. I thought you would be a coward. Oh, no, you should be an ostrich that hides its head in the sand!" The demonic thing laughed.

"Ostriches ..." Lin Yi was speechless. He couldn't help but curse in his heart. This bastard went to the common world and didn't find the king of spirit beasts bloodline, but he learned a bunch of new words. He was in this state, but he still had the heart to learn these things. He was disabled but determined.

After making his decision, Lin Yi continued to move forward with the spirit Bird, still at the same slow speed. He had made up his mind to find out who the enemy was, but the best situation was to not let them know. After all, this was the only way to ensure safety.

"There's no need to be so nervous. Since the other party has a divine sense protection, we can naturally use it on our side as well. Unless its primordial spirit is stronger than mine, we'll definitely be the first to see its face. As long as we get close enough, its divine sense protection will be ineffective on me. I have a way to break through the divine sense protection without anyone noticing, provided that the distance can't be too far. " The ghostly thing was very confident in this. After all, this was his specialty. (To be continued.) "If you like this work, you're welcome to come to Qidian.com to give your recommendation and monthly vote.
