If he could clear the other party’s level and obtain the exclusive item after clearing it, even if the other party died in the level, he would not have nothing to gain.
Xiao Shi did not hesitate anymore. He immediately prepared to follow this official road to the other party’s checkpoint. But just as he had just taken a step forward, a barrier suddenly appeared in front of him, instantly pushing him far away, preventing him from entering the official road.
“Looks like I can’t enter the official road of others.” Xiao Shi felt deeply regretful about this.
Clearly, this was a form of protection for Martial Demon Realm cultivators like them. If there was no such protection, the advantage was too great for people who cleared the level quickly.
Since he could not enter the other party’s official road, Xiao Shi could only wait here for the other party to arrive.
At the same time, on the official road that was still a distance away from Xiao Shi,
“Phew!”
“Phew!”
A young man with black hair and a slightly gloomy aura was panting heavily. There were still some broken vines on his body. These vines had pierced deeply into his flesh. Fortunately, after the vines broke, they had already lost their previous effect.
The young man panted. As he pulled off the broken vines on his body, there was still lingering fear in his eyes. But soon, his lingering fears were replaced by ecstasy.
“Not a bad harvest!” The young man looked excitedly at the dark blue vine he had obtained after clearing the level. Although he could not see detailed information about items like Xiao Shi, the moment he successfully obtained this dark blue vine, he already knew the specific use of this dark blue vine.
As long as this dark blue vine pierced into the target’s flesh, it would quickly grow in the target’s body. Under such growth, the target’s movements will be greatly restricted. His speed would continuously decrease with time. Not only would his movement speed become extremely slow, but all his speed would also become extremely slow. In the end, they would become like puppets and their movements would be slow.
What excited and delighted the young man the most was that this dark blue vine was of an extremely high level. Even if the Sage’s flesh was pierced by this dark blue vine, they could not avoid the slowdown brought about by this dark blue vine.
Such a treasure was indescribably valuable to the young man. It gave him an incomparably huge confidence in his subsequent actions.
The young man brought the guards behind him and arrived at the intersection with another official road. From afar, he was already extremely vigilant as he stared at the intersection to prevent himself from being ambushed.
If the people on the other official road arrived here before him and ambushed him, he would definitely be very passive, so he had to be wary. As he observed, he realized that the intersection of the two official roads was calm. He did not notice anything unusual.
However, the young man was still worried about this. He thought for a moment. He quickly took out a clay statue from his bag. Under his kneading, the entire clay statue quickly transformed into its own appearance.
As the young man placed the clay statue on the ground, this clay statue immediately grew and expanded on its own. In an instant, it transformed into a body identical to the young man’s. It was not just their appearance and size. Even the aura he emitted was completely the same. Whether it was from the naked eye or from the soul, he could not detect any clues.
After doing all of this, the young man immediately controlled his clay figurine. He let this clay avatar walk at the front with a group of guards behind him as usual. He himself hid at the back.
In this way, if there was an ambush, the enemy’s attack would first attack his clay statue. Although his clay statue did not have any offensive power and was only a pure substitute, through this substitute, the young man could very well test it and turn passive into active.
As long as he sensed the enemy’s attack, he could immediately counterattack from the back. This allowed him to take the initiative very well. In a situation where both sides were at the first stage of the Martial Demon Realm, whoever could take the initiative would have the advantage.
Soon, the young man led the team to the intersection of the two official roads through the clay figurine. The surroundings were calm. Nothing happened.
“Looks like I was overthinking…” The young man heaved a sigh of relief.
Just as he was about to continue forward, he felt that something’s not right! He suddenly lowered his head as if he had noticed something. He realized that the ground under his feet was actually rippling like water, causing his entire feet to seem to be stuck to the ground and he could not lift them at all.
“I’ve been waiting for you for a long time.”
A low voice came from behind the young man, causing the hair on his back to instantly stand up, producing a strong stress reaction. When the other party’s voice sounded, he had already swept behind him with his spiritual sense.
However, he did not expect to not discover anything under his spiritual sense! Not only did he not sense the other party’s strength and cultivation, but he did not even see the other party’s appearance..
