Campfire.
Four Earth Demons at the Longevity First Level Foundation Establishnt Realm sat around the fire, the crackling flas making a rhythmic sound. To them, Immortal Sect disciples treated them as training targets.
anwhile, they needed to collect elixirs from those Immortal Sect disciples.
Suddenly.
One of the Foundation Establishnt Earth Demons twitched its nose slightly, its expression shifting. "Do you sll sothing strange?"
The other three Earth Demons looked puzzled, "Nope."
These three Earth Demons were weaker and had less sensitivity to slls compared to the first one.
The Earth Demon pondered for a mont before standing up to trace the faint scent. The sll felt sowhat familiar, yet it remained faint due to the distance.
Lin Fan crouched quietly nearby, watching. Behind him lay two corpses, motionless.
As for these two Earth Demons who had turned into corpses, they’d really been scared to death.
They’d suffered an unspeakable horror before their demise, their wide-open eyes carrying an unyielding expression, as though they wouldn’t rest in peace.
"Huh? What’s up with that Earth Demon? Could it be that Fate is helping pick my next target?" Lin Fan stared at the distant Earth Demon.
But upon seeing the Earth Demon’s apparent level of strength.
He imdiately shook his head in refusal.
That Earth Demon seed tough—definitely not sothing he could finish off in one move. If one move couldn’t do it, it would attract more Earth Demons—a hassle, a colossal hassle.
At this mont.
He noted the odd behavior of the Earth Demon. One mont it was enjoying the fire, and now it was casually wandering around.
Suddenly.
A terrifying thought struck him.
Innate Divine Ability: Living Creature Sense.
Earth Demons possess the Innate Divine Ability of Living Creature Sense; while weak, lesser Earth Demons may not have formidable abilities, but this Foundation Establishnt Earth Demon certainly had detected sothing.
Just as he was about to retreat.
The Earth Demon’s gaze locked onto Lin Fan’s hiding spot. Then the Earth Demon let out a furious roar, alerting the rest, who all turned their attention toward Lin Fan.
"Shit! I’ve been discovered!"
Lin Fan felt that he could engage in an earth-shattering battle with this group of Earth Demons.
But what he felt and what was real were two entirely different things.
Retreat!
Whoosh!
Lin Fan darted out of his hiding spot, grabbing the two Earth Demon corpses behind him and hurling them toward the pack. He shouted, "You Earth Demons, pay attention! Grandpa’s a bit tied up today; let’s play properly next ti!"
As the words fell.
Lin Fan sprinted into the distance. Clashing head-on was out of the question—he’d likely die here. Since he’d been found, running was the only option.
Far behind, the Earth Demons lowered their heads to look at the two corpses, roared in fury, and chased after Lin Fan in rage.
Lin Fan cursed internally. Damn it, this sucks.
He had completely forgotten that Earth Demons possess the Living Creature Sense Innate Divine Ability. Add to that, audaciously thinking he could sway the Earth Demons by wiggling his hips—if the Earth Demon had been sneakier, pretending not to notice and striking when close, wouldn’t his backside be completely ruined?
Gradually.
The Earth Demon group beca fragnted. The four Longevity First Level Foundation Establishnt Earth Demons outran the Transcendent Realm Earth Demons, leaving the slower ones behind.
Lin Fan looked back helplessly. These four Earth Demons were clearly fixated on him.
"Can you stop chasing? It’s totally a misunderstanding! I swear I have no improper intentions towards you!" Lin Fan shouted as he glanced back.
Was this necessary?
He’d just accidentally killed their two small fry. He’d already explained it was a misunderstanding, couldn’t they just let it go?
"Damn Immortal Sect disciple."
The Earth Demon’s mindset wasn’t great; hearing Lin Fan’s comnts only added fuel to the fire. Was this guy even human? He kills two of their comrades and dares call it a misunderstanding?
These Immortal Sect disciples had truly beco too arrogant.
They treated the Earth Demon Plains like a backyard garden, coming and going as they pleased.
Lin Fan kept running, pondering the question in his mind.
To fight or not?
He strongly wanted to kill these four Earth Demons.
The strongest Earth Demon among them had far richer mana than Lin Fan.
[Earth Demon: Longevity First Level Foundation Establishnt Realm Earth Demon.]
[Possible Drops: tal Spirit Root, Water Spirit Root, Living Creature Sense, Quick Recovery, 80 Years of Mana, Pure Yang Pill, Damaged Demon Worm Inner Armor, Sound-breaking Demon Saber Technique.]
This was the most resource-laden Earth Demon Lin Fan had ever encountered.
If he could kill it, it would surely drop valuable items.
But what were his chances of winning?
This question stumped Lin Fan.
Fuck it! I’ll take the risk. There might be a chance to counter-attack. Without risking it, I’d get nothing good. Getting chased by Earth Demons like this was no way to live. Even if I explored deeper into the Earth Demon Plains, the sa situation would arise.
I, Lin Fan, never rely on favors; my principle has always been to rely on my own effort to earn everything I desire.
No more running.
After making up his mind.
Lin Fan stopped in his tracks, locking eyes with the four Earth Demons. A brutal battle was about to unfold.
He was already prepared.
If things went south, he wouldn’t hesitate to run—he’d flee at once without any delay.
Seeing Lin Fan stop fleeing, the chasing Earth Demons were intrigued. What trick could this Immortal Sect disciple be plotting?
"Stay alert. Immortal Sect disciples are deceitful. If he suddenly stopped running, he must be up to sothing. Don’t fall for it," said the strongest Earth Demon, whose analysis felt on point. If the opponent had been fleeing all along, why stop now?
What hidden trap might be lurking in this scenario?
"I’ll go break his neck!" One Earth Demon couldn’t hold back and stepped forward, but was stopped by the strongest Earth Demon. "Don’t act recklessly. Let’s see what he’s planning."
Lin Fan took a deep breath, already geared up for combat but was surprised that the four Earth Demons hadn’t attacked yet. It was curious indeed.
Fine, let’s take a breather.
Everyone can rest for a mont.
Lin Fan then wielded the Green Toad Saber, pointing it at the four Earth Demons before him, provoking, "Co on! All four of you co at ! Let’s see if I can slice you all down!"
The other three Earth Demons couldn’t tolerate him.
But the strongest Earth Demon held them back. The longer it thought, the more suspicious it beca—this Immortal Sect disciple must have so sche.
Scanning the surroundings.
It was eerily quiet yet seemingly safe.
But the safer it seed, the more suspicious it beca.
Lin Fan had no clue what the strongest Earth Demon was thinking. If he had, he might’ve been speechless. By that logic, he shouldn’t have run in the first place.
Instead, he should’ve fought them head-on to prove there was no hidden plot.
He analyzed the current situation, strategizing the optimal way to engage. Those three weaker Earth Demons weren’t worth worrying about; the only troubleso one was the one with eighty years of mana.
A showdown with that one would likely turn into an endurance battle.
