Chapter 1123 Leaving the Sea of Mist

Hearing the nervously laughter followed by the old man, who had been quietly cultivating inside the Sea of Mist, bowing his head while explaining his situation, Xuan Hao could not help examining the old man more closely. Soon realizing that the old man was none other than the Earth Immortal Realm Experts who had managed to kill the Earth Immortal Realm Expert from the Blue Sea Empire before being besieged by a large number of Peak Soul Ascension Realm Experts on all sides.

To think he managed to escape in that kind of situation and even managed to begin the process of recovery after using so many forbidden techniques to forcibly increase his own strength…

Feeling a sense of admiration towards the old man as he thought about this while observing his condition through his divine sense, Xuan Hao didn't pay any more attention to the old man as he began making his way towards the wooden gate leading out of the Sea of Mist and back into the blue Sea Empire. Ignoring the earlier words of Chu Li in the process, as he had no intention of taking this person with him.

The reason for this was not just the fact that he was a part of the Blue Sea Empire, but also because he clearly had some enemies that wanted to secretly kill him off by sending him to a dangerous place like the Valley of Illusory Beasts… And considering the fact that he was still far from being able to meddle in the affairs of a giant power like the Blue Sea Empire, he decided that the best option would be to leave before he ended up getting caught in some kind of internal struggle taking place inside the Blue Sea Empire.

Swish-!

Given the difference in strength between himself and Chu Li now that he had broken through to the Late Stage of the Dao Domain Lord Realm, Chu Li didn't even have time to react before he disappeared through the wooden gate and appeared back in the small cave that the wooden gate was located inside of-

Whoosh~

And with another step, he directly used the Dao of Space to teleport away from the cave before any of the Earth Immortal Realm illusory beasts wandering around outside had the time to notice him. Not giving Chu Li any chance to catch up with him and possibly delaying him until the powerful experts of the Blue Sea Empire appeared.

Even if he didn't have any hostile relationship with the Blue Sea Empire and there was a good chance that he would still be able to leave if this happened, he wasn't one to take the chance. Especially after he witnessed how the group of Peak Soul Ascension Realm Experts from the blue Sea Empire had treated the Earth Immortal Realm Expert from the Blue Sea Empire…

"Wha- Senior!?"

At the same time inside the Sea of Mist, Chu Li could not help exclaiming to himself with a look of surprise plastered all over his face as he witnessed Xuan Hao leaving without responding to him.

Although he wanted to believe that it was because he hadn't heard him earlier, he understood that there was no chance of something like that being the case considering the senior's cultivation base. The most likely reason was that the senior didn't want to bother with him any longer and had decided to leave or had something important come up.

In the eyes of Chu Li, he felt that the last option was more likely as the senior didn't really seem like someone who would just ignore him and leave all of a sudden. After all, he had already put up with him for a few hours when he taught him about the Dao of Space and pointed him on the path to the Earth Immortal Realm.

"Senior…"

Even if this was the case, Chu Li could not help feeling a hint of sadness after Xuan Hao left. Not only because he might not encounter the senior in the future given the fact that he should be a wandering cultivator that just happened to be passing through the Blue Sea Empire, but also because he now had to find a way to survive the large number of Earth Immortal Realm illusory beasts lurking outside the Sea of Mist.

Confident as he might be in escaping from a single Earth Immortal Realm illusory beast that had just broken through to the realm with his current strength, there was no way he would be able to escape from the large number currently outside the entrance of the Sea of Mist.

"But… With such a large number of Illusory Beasts in the Earth Immortal Realm, the four armies are bound to make a move to calm down the situation. Even those old ancestors won't be able to sit still with such a large number of powerful illusory beasts running around inside the empire…" Muttering this to himself as he thought about the large number of illusory beasts just outside the Sea of Mist, Chu Li felt himself starting to relax again.

Even without the help of Xuan Hao, he should be able to just wait around for his seniors to start moving out and deal with the situation. After all, even if it would be hard to deal with so many illusory beasts in the Earth Immortal Realm, it was not impossible with the Blue Sea Empire's strength. Especially so if some of the ancestors above the Earth Immortal Realm appeared to take charge of the situation…

WHAT!? The large number of Earth Immortal Realm illusory beasts? Four armies? Old ancestors? What in the world happened outside the Sea of Mist?!

At the same time Chu Li was feeling himself relax after realizing he could just continue waiting around inside the Sea of Mist for his seniors to show up and clean up the mess, the old man sitting not too far away listening to what he said could not help feeling a shiver run down his spine upon hearing what Chu Li said.

Although the seniors and powerful experts from the Blue Sea Empire would help Chu Li get out of the current situation safely, the same could not be said for the old man, as he was currently wanted by the Blue Sea Empire for killing one of their Earth Immortal Realm Experts.

Given that over two years had already passed since then, his remnant aura had undoubtedly been recorded by the Blue Sea Empire's special artifacts and would be able to pick up on his presence the moment he got anywhere close to one of them.

The only positive thing about this was that these kinds of artifacts were rather hard to make and could only be found inside some of the larger cities of the Blue Sea Empire and along the border.

Of course, there were always exceptions to this and one of these exceptions just so happened to be the four armies, who were one of the few forces in the Blue Sea Empire that had these artifacts. The main reason for this being that it would normally be the people from the four armies who tracked down anyone wanted inside the Blue Sea Empire.

I… I have to get out of here before those people show up!

With this in mind, the old man who had just barely managed to recover a small part of his strength after two grueling years trying to mitigate and repair the damage that the different forbidden techniques and pills used had done to his body and soul, began making his way towards the wooden gate leading out of the Sea of Mist.

The danger posed by the large number of illusory beasts roaming around outside that Chu Li had mentioned was the least of his concern, as continuing to stay inside the Sea of Mist would undoubtedly get him killed when the people from the four armies appeared.

"You! Where are you going? It's dangerous outside there-"

"I understand, there are illusory beasts in the Earth Immortal Realm running rampant. Although my current state isn't too good, I'm still someone in the Earth Immortal Realm, you don't have to worry about me." Rumble~

As Chu Li spotted him and called out to him, the old man calmly responded as he used some the precious power, he had recovered to display his Earth Immortal Realm aura and suppress Chu Li. Understanding that if he didn't do this, there was a chance that Chu Li might grow suspicious of him or try to restrain him.

"I-I see, I didn't expect you to be a senior. Forgive me my rudeness."

Indeed, after feeling the might belonging to an Earth Immortal Realm Expert bearing down on him, Chu Li slightly bowed his head before retreating with a hint of fear in his eyes. Not having expected that the old man was actually someone in the Earth Immortal Realm.

"Then, I will take my leave."

Swish-!

Not intending to stay around for a second longer, as he felt the little power gathered over the past two years rapidly draining while he used his aura to suppress Chu Li, the old man wasted no time as he left the Sea of Mist.
