Chapter 1280: Immediate Face-Slap
Chapter 1280: Immediate Face-Slap
After distributing the rewards, the Evil Spirit Domain Lord dismissed Yi Tianyun. Elder Tai Suo didn’t question Yi Tianyun about Ji Shuilian; here, the Evil Spirit Domain Lord’s word was final, so it was better to speak directly to him.
Once they were dismissed, the Evil Spirit Domain Lord’s face turned cold, a harsh expression forming on his features.
“Who exactly is this infiltrator? How could they possess such capabilities to escape from my Forbidden Black Curtain!” The Evil Spirit Domain Lord had erected a soundproof barrier around them, ensuring that only the elders could hear the conversation.
The Domain Lord didn’t hide the truth from the elders, as this was a serious matter that needed to be discussed with them. The rest of the race also needed to be reassured.
The elders were the key players, and discussing this with them was entirely appropriate.
“According to our information, the opponent is only at the Heaven Monarch level. This reminds me of the human who rescued the Divine Spirit Race earlier. It’s highly likely it’s the same person! Their escape ability is top-notch; they vanished from my seal in an instant!” Elder Tai Suo recalled the previous incident, suspecting it might be the same individual.
This time, despite his efforts, he couldn’t even catch a glimpse of the intruder before it was over. Unlike the Evil Spirit Domain Lord, who could traverse vast distances swiftly, they had to rely on teleportation arrays.
The Domain Lord could move so quickly because he controlled the core of the Evil Spirit Divine Realm. As the realm’s master, he had unparalleled speed.
If they were in a different divine realm, he wouldn’t be so formidable. If it had been anyone else, Yi Tianyun would have already destroyed a city and moved on to another.
The Evil Spirit Domain Lord raised his hand, and an image appeared in the void, showing the previous battle with Yi Tianyun. The image clearly displayed Yi Tianyun’s appearance, as the Domain Lord had projected his memory for them to see.
“He doesn’t seem to be the same person…” Elder Tai Suo shook his head, but after sensing the aura, he added, “The aura is quite similar. Could it be the same person?”
“It’s likely the same person, just with a different appearance to throw us off,” the Domain Lord said sternly. “It seems they came prepared, making them harder to track down. But I will investigate this thoroughly and find out the infiltrator’s background!”
“Anyone who can escape from me at a level below God Monarch must be using a powerful treasure, likely a Heaven Venerable treasure. But a Heaven Monarch can’t use a Heaven Venerable treasure unless their master channels their energy into them, allowing temporary control.”
No one below that level could use Heaven Venerable treasures, but nothing was absolute. A Heaven Venerable could channel energy into their disciple, allowing limited use. It wasn’t sustainable for frequent use but feasible for a few times.
However, this would be extremely risky. If captured, losing a Heaven Venerable treasure would be a devastating loss.
“Isn’t that too risky?” Elder Tai Suo asked.
“Do you think there’s any other treasure that can escape my Forbidden Black Curtain? Besides a Heaven Venerable treasure, I can’t think of anything that could break my seal!” The Domain Lord’s voice was harsh.
“That’s true. If so, that Heaven Venerable is very generous…” Elder Tai Suo said. “Or they might be extremely confident in their ability to escape, allowing such risks.”
Another elder suggested, “Or perhaps the infiltrator stumbled upon a Heaven Venerable treasure and some energy, enabling temporary use.”
“That’s also possible,” the Domain Lord said. “Regardless, we start by investigating the Heaven Venerables of the Third Grade Divine Realms! I want to see who dares to mess with our Evil Spirit Divine Realm!”
He slammed his hand on a nearby stone table, shattering it into dust.
“Yes! Anyone who invades our realm will face our wrath!” They all echoed, their eyes blazing with fury. They would go to any lengths to protect their realm.
Just as they were swearing to find the infiltrator’s origins, a message came through their communication jade slips.
“Reporting, elders, an infiltrator is slaughtering in Evil Bind City!”
“What!?”
They jumped up, immediately informing the Domain Lord, “Domain Lord, the infiltrator is back! They’re wreaking havoc in Evil Bind City, and if we don’t intervene, the city will be destroyed.”
A face slap, a heavy one! Just after claiming the infiltrator was dead, they returned, faster than expected, leaving everyone in disbelief.
“What’s going on? I checked every detail, every corner, and found no trace of him. How could he suddenly appear? Is his concealment ability beyond my detection range?”
The Evil Spirit Domain Lord didn’t waste time. He broke through the space and rushed to where Yi Tianyun was.
Yi Tianyun had learned his lesson this time. Before he could destroy half the city, he used the Teleportation Divine Stone to escape.
When the Evil Spirit Domain Lord arrived, Yi Tianyun was already gone, and there was no trace of his whereabouts!
“Damn it, he escaped again!” The Domain Lord was furious, feeling thoroughly played.
“Domain Lord, the infiltrator is now attacking another city…”
“As expected, that bastard! Arghhh!”
The Evil Spirit Domain Lord was losing his mind, teleporting once again to catch Yi Tianyun. But Yi Tianyun, having calculated the Domain Lord’s arrival time, would escape just as he was about to be caught.
He had plenty of Teleportation Divine Stones and wasn’t worried about wasting them. By exterminating a large number of Evil Spirit Race members, he quickly replenished his resources.
For him, it was a frenzy of experience points, earning wave after wave, making it easy to reach God Monarch level.
Returning to the days of rapid cultivation, the restrictions that slowed him down before were now gone. He could soar without worrying about tribulations, racing towards new heights.
“He escaped again, that bastard!” The Evil Spirit Domain Lord was enraged, his eyes flashing with dark light. “It seems I must use my ultimate move. If I don’t suppress him soon, my entire realm will be destroyed!”
Being taken down by one person was a disgrace, especially for the arrogant Evil Spirit Race.

Yi Tianyun continuously switched locations, each time traveling a significant distance. He targeted gatherings of Heaven Monarchs, exterminating large groups at once before immediately fleeing.
Initially, they had gathered for a meeting, but instead, he reaped the benefits, slaughtering hundreds, even thousands, of Heaven Monarchs. The experience points gained were explosive, making him grin from ear to ear.
“Keep upgrading for me!”
“Ding! Congratulations to the host ‘Yi Tianyun’ for successfully breaking through to the eighth level of the Heaven Monarch!”
“Ding! Congratulations to the host ‘Yi Tianyun’ for successfully breaking through to the ninth level of the Heaven Monarch!”
“Ding! Congratulations to the host ‘Yi Tianyun’ for successfully reaching the peak of the Heaven Monarch!”
After exterminating numerous Heaven Monarchs and many Evil Spirit Race members, he finally accumulated enough experience to level up consecutively, propelling him to the peak of the Heaven Monarch.
The speed of this progression was astounding. If others knew that cultivation could advance this rapidly, they would be utterly shocked.
What was typically an arduous process was, for him, an upgrade paradise. As long as he continued his rampage, the experience points would keep increasing, allowing easy level-ups.
“Ding! A special upgrade mission has been accepted: ‘Sprint to a New Realm’! Condense a third star to break through and earn 1,000 Compressed Crazy Points and 500 Compressed Proficiency! Additionally, you will receive the title ‘Supreme God Monarch’ (which can be skipped and directly broken through to God Monarch).
Yi Tianyun’s eyes lit up at this breakthrough mission to condense a third star.
“Condense a third star and earn such a title? This mission is a must!”
He knew this mission had to be completed without hesitation. In addition to the rewards, the benefits of condensing another star were well-known to him.
The title itself promised significant advantages, likely providing overwhelming suppression power when facing other God Monarchs.
Such an opportunity was not to be missed, offering benefits far beyond any equipment.
“That’s enough, time to move on!”
Yi Tianyun’s figure flashed and disappeared from sight, soon reappearing in another city to continue his assault.
The Evil Spirit Divine Realm had many cities, and he had only destroyed a small fraction of them. With his power alone, he could annihilate the entire realm.
The issue was the Evil Spirit Domain Lord’s intervention. He had to keep moving and attacking, confident as long as no Heaven Venerable arrived, he had nothing to fear.
“Bold brat, prepare to die!”
Two shadows appeared in the void, their hands raised to form an incredibly dense barrier, sealing the area with thick layers of restriction. Another Forbidden Black Curtain materialized outside this barrier!
Two overwhelming forces pressed down from above, making Yi Tianyun feel a chill.
“Two Heaven Venerables!”
Yi Tianyun’s eyes narrowed as he looked up. Besides the Evil Spirit Domain Lord, there was another equally handsome Evil Spirit Race member, presumably the previous Evil Spirit Domain Lord.
Both were Heaven Venerables, but the new arrival was at the late stage of the Lower Heaven Venerable level, stronger than the current Evil Spirit Domain Lord.
With two Heaven Venerables joining forces, they shattered the void with incredible speed to seal him off.
“Didn’t expect a brat to make me come out of seclusion,” said the former Evil Spirit Domain Lord, shaking his head in displeasure as he looked at Yi Tianyun.
“Master, I couldn’t seal him. Even using the Forbidden Black Curtain wasn’t enough. I had to ask for your help; otherwise, we couldn’t capture him. He has caused too much damage to our realm, so I had no choice but to disturb your seclusion,” the Evil Spirit Domain Lord said respectfully.
“Very well, I want to see if he can escape two Heaven Venerable treasures!” The former Evil Spirit Domain Lord, Heaven Venerable Fei Te, said coldly as he swiftly manipulated immense power to capture Yi Tianyun.
They didn’t want to kill him outright; they aimed to capture him and extract all information through soul searching, uncovering who sent him to wreak havoc in their territory.
Facing the combined suppression of two Heaven Venerable treasures, Yi Tianyun felt the pressure and immediately attempted to teleport away.
As expected, his teleportation failed, locking him firmly in place.
If two Heaven Venerable treasures couldn’t hold him, then they would be useless. Despite his recent breakthroughs, escape was impossible.
His spiritual sense was completely sealed off, unable to penetrate the Heaven Venerable treasures’ barriers. It wasn’t a matter of spiritual sense; his teleportation skill needed to be more advanced.
“Upgrade Teleportation!”
“Ding! Successfully deducted 3,000 points of Compressed Crazy Points. Teleportation upgraded to level eight!”
“Greatly enhanced penetration ability against barriers. Teleportation range is now three times the range of spiritual sense! Next level requires 8,000 points of Compressed Crazy Points!”
Having just upgraded it, it now required another upgrade, which cost a significant amount of madness value. However, he had earned enough from slaughtering the Evil Spirit Race members.
Without sufficient madness value, he wouldn’t have dared to act so boldly. If caught, it would have been disastrous.
“Go!”
Yi Tianyun’s eyes flashed as he disappeared, escaping their sight entirely without a trace.
As soon as he fled, the combined forces of the two Heaven Venerable treasures collided with nothing but each other, sealing nothing but empty space.
“Escaped?!” Heaven Venerable Fei Te frowned, surprised that even two Heaven Venerable treasures and their combined efforts couldn’t capture a mere Heaven Monarch!
The Evil Spirit Domain Lord was furious, unable to comprehend how the escape was possible.
“What’s going on? Could it be a mid-grade Heaven Venerable treasure or even a high-grade one? To escape our combined seal!” The Evil Spirit Domain Lord was exasperated. Despite their immense efforts, the target still slipped away.
Particularly frustrating was that Heaven Venerable Fei Te had come out of seclusion at great cost, only to be thwarted, making the whole ordeal deeply unsatisfying.
“Only a mid-grade Heaven Venerable treasure could break our seal,” Fei Te speculated. “Typically, mid-grade Heaven Venerables don’t appear in Third Grade Divine Realm; they usually stay in Fourth Grade Divine Realm. Could this be an agent from a Fourth Grade Divine Realm?”
Both fell silent, realizing that if the infiltrator had such powerful backing, they might have to abandon their pursuit.
