Chapter 760: Chapter 402: Escape! Encirclement from All Sides Chapter 760: Chapter 402: Escape! Encirclement from All Sides Li Yuan had been wandering in the Outer Realm and Inner Domain previously, encountering only Flying Heaven Level ferocious beasts.
But Semi-Divine Level beasts normally appear in forbidden regions, only occasionally venturing out to the edges.
The Inner Domain? You would hardly see any Semi-Divine Level beasts.
“These Semi-Divine Level beasts, their Life Breath isn't particularly strong; Inquiry shows they are level 40, 41.” Li Yuan had already deployed Divine Palace Exploration to confirm the Life Level of these emerging beasts.
“[…Slaying them will yield Spirituality Nourishment].”
“It seems they are real living creatures, not puppets like the Flying Heaven Level beasts,” Li Yuan thought, many ideas flashing through his mind: “But it's uncertain whether the Spirituality Nourishment received from killing them is as much as from slaying a normal Semi-Divine expert.”
Since the Soul Will had not broken through, Li Yuan's Spiritual Awakening Level had always been capped at 80%. Even if he killed a Demigod, it would only remind him to obtain Spirituality Nourishment without showing the exact amount.
“If the chance arises, there may be an opportunity for a slaughter,” Li Yuan thought to himself: “By then, when my Soul undergoes Metamorphosis to reach the Void God Realm and my Spiritual Awakening Level limit reaches 85% or even 90%, I can directly surge to the limit.”
Even if reaching the limit of Spiritual Awakening, one could continuously accumulate Spirituality Nourishment.
“However.”
“To suddenly come across more than ten Semi-Divine Level beasts, could this indeed be the Blood Disaster referred to by Jiang Xuan and the others?” Li Yuan was inwardly astonished.
Blood Disaster sweeps across the entire Abyss Demon Blood Den.
“Sixteen Semi-Divine Level beasts?”
“With so many, it must be a Blood Disaster burst, but it hasn't even been twenty occurrences since the last one, could it come this quickly?” Jiang Xuan, Xu Guo, and the rest wore changing expressions.

They were not that afraid of the dozen or so Semi-Divine Level beasts, after all, they had the highly skilled Li Yuan with them.
With Li Yuan's displayed strength, slaying these Semi-Divine Level beasts shouldn't be hard.
But the true terror of Blood Disaster lies in the 'Blood Demons', capable of causing any Flying Heaven Level to lose their will to resist.
“Brother Xu, it must be the Blood Disaster burst; we need to escape the Inner Domain quickly,” Jiang Xuan hurriedly transmitted: “From the forbidden lands to the Inner Domain, then to the Outer Realm, the danger decreases gradually… Only by fleeing to the Outer Realm can we have a greater hope of survival.”
“I know you have great strength, but based on the intelligence we've acquired, killing these Semi-Divine Level beasts, the more you kill, the more it will attract other Semi-Divine Level beasts to besiege us, and if we provoke a Blood Demon, it's all over,” Jiang Xuan's voice was urgent.
She was worried Li Yuan would take action directly.
Xu Guo and several Armored Warriors couldn't help but look towards Li Yuan, waiting for his command.
Though subordinates of Jiang Xuan, at such life-and-death moments, they tend to follow the strongest.
Of course, if the strongest one made a 'suicidal move', that would be the exception.
“Let's go,” said Li Yuan.
Boom!
The Void Warship immediately moved, Xu Guo controlling the warship, its speed began to surge, quickly fleeing toward the other end of the gorge.
At this moment, the sixteen Semi-Divine Level beasts, emerging from the cave, had already sensed Li Yuan, Jiang Xuan, and their Life Breath… In their perception, these were Blood Feast.
Their mission was to kill all this Blood Feast.
“Boom!”
“Boom!”
“Boom!” The sixteen Semi-Divine Level beasts, with their towering and fierce might, more horrifying than the hundreds of Flying Heaven Level beasts before, turned into streaks of light, chasing like lightning.
Among these Semi-Divine Level beasts, there were two that resembled bats, exceptionally swift, their surfaces diffusely emitting a blue glow, dazzling to the eye.
“Not good.”
“There are two Wind System beasts faster than our warship,” Xu Guo's face changed, saying, “Brother Xu, Your Highness, I am not adept at controlling the warship.”
Li Yuan frowned slightly.
This Void Warship, if at full speed, would be faster than the flight of a Semi-Divine expert… Alas, Xu Guo did not cultivate the True Meaning of Wind.
“If I were to control the ship, I should be able to shake them off, but I would need some time to refine the warship's core,” Li Yuan thought to himself.
Even with his strength, he couldn't instantly refine a Semi Divine Artifact.
“Roar~” “Roar~” The two bat-like beasts quickly closed in.
Jiang Xuan and others became even more anxious.
“Prepare to retract the warship, don't resist,” Li Yuan's voice echoed in their minds.
Swoosh! With a wave of his hand, another long shuttle appeared next to the original warship, its surface emitting a hazy glow, resembling nebulae.
A Divine Artifact–Nebula Extreme Sky Shuttle!
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Xu Guo, a Semi-Divine, reacted swiftly, collected his own warship into the Storage Magical Treasure with a wave of his hand, and promptly felt an invisible force enveloping him.
He, along with Jiang Xuan and several Armored Warriors, were brought into the Nebula Extreme Sky Shuttle by Li Yuan.
Swoosh!
The speed of the Nebula Extreme Sky Shuttle was astonishing, like a bolt of lightning, far surpassing the flight speed of the two Wind System beasts and leaving them far behind.
“This!”
“Such tremendous speed.”
“What kind of warship is this?” Jiang Xuan and Xu Guo were both shocked. They could still observe the outside from inside the warship and naturally noticed the terrifying speed of the long shuttle, more than twice as fast as their own warships.
Twice the speed? Absolutely frightening!
A Semi-Divine Peak expert's flight speed was merely so.
“My warship,” Li Yuan said indifferently.
“`
In fact, with Li Yuan's current understanding of the Wind Law and the Mysteries of Space, if he were to operate at full strength, the velocity of the Nebula Extreme Sky Shuttle could be increased by more than fifty percent.
After all, the theoretical 'extreme speed' of the Nebula Extreme Sky Shuttle surpasses even the Pseudo-God Peak. Right now, Li Yuan has only tapped into a small portion of its might.
Whoosh!
Under Li Yuan's full control, the Nebula Extreme Sky Shuttle, less than twenty meters in length, darted away like an agile fish, swiftly evading the pursuit of more than ten Semi-Divine Level Ferocious Beasts.
In the deepest reaches of the Abyss Demon Blood Den, within the forbidden area.
Two powerful consciousnesses were exchanging thoughts.
“How effective is the Blood Calamity?” inquired a consciousness from the forbidden area.
“Very effective. It was indeed a wise decision to deploy a large number of our offspring to the Inner Domain and Outer Realm. The slaughter efficacy has immediately increased,” the consciousness from the earth responded. “At this rate, we can exterminate all the Blood Feasts within a day.”
“Leave some behind. Keep to the previous ratio, one percent,” suggested the consciousness from the forbidden area. “If we exterminate them all, I fear no one will be willing to enter again.”
“I understand,” replied the earth consciousness.
Suddenly.
“Huh! Interesting!” The earth consciousness exclaimed in surprise.
“What's the matter?”
“My offspring have found something interesting–a warship capable of reaching the Semi-Divine Peak Level,” the earth consciousness replied. “It must be a formidable Divine Artifact… The worth of an artifact depends on how well it's utilized. It appears we have a capable Flying Heaven Level being here; uncertain if it's operated by a demigod.”
“Oh?” The consciousness from the forbidden area was also curious. “From what you're implying, seize it with full effort?”
“According to the master's command, life–imbued with the essence of heaven and earth–the more formidable the Flying Heaven Level being, the more essence their Soul Spirit and flesh hold… to kill them would be greatly beneficial.”
“Besides, such a formidable artifact is worth perhaps hundreds of Fangshen Crystals… Accumulating bit by bit, our master would be pleased as well,” replied the earth consciousness.
Both consciousnesses, secretly collected treasures from the Trialists they killed, though they usually did it inconspicuously.
“I have instructed my offspring to attack from all directions. They cannot escape,” declared the earth consciousness confidently. “First, we'll annihilate them before going after other Blood Feasts.”
In a dim canyon.
After evading another group of ferocious beasts, the Nebula Extreme Sky Shuttle slowed down and landed among a cluster of towering trees, concealing their tracks.
“The Blood Calamity has erupted.”
“Everywhere is unsafe,” remarked Xu Guo. “Whether moving forward or backward, we might encounter other hordes of ferocious beasts. It's better to stay put.”
“How fortunate we have Master Xu Yuan,” Xu Guo said with eyes full of admiration.
The armored warriors felt the same way.
“It's a small matter,” Li Yuan responded calmly.
“What a pity, this Blood Calamity… who knows how many Trialists will perish because of it, the survivors are probably less than one in a hundred,” Jiang Xuan murmured softly, disliking the act of slaughter deep in her bones.
However, she quickly recovered and looked at Li Yuan, “Brother Xu, you've saved me once again.”
“I'm also saving myself,” Li Yuan said with a smile, then his tone shifted, “There are ten days left until the end of the trial. Will this Blood Calamity continue throughout?”
Li Yuan estimated that if it persisted, like a tidal wave, the hordes of ferocious beasts would probably wipe out all Trialists in the Abyss Demon Blood Den… After all, this was the lair of the beasts, they were very familiar with the terrain.
With the invisible Origin Power Array enveloping them, Trialists could hardly move mountains, even Li Yuan found it difficult.
One could only proceed through fixed canyon passages.
But what about the beasts? They could carve passages through the mountains, obviously taking advantage of the terrain.
“It usually lasts one or two days,” Jiang Xuan replied helplessly. “Actually, people have always suspected that the entire Abyss Demon Blood Den is secretly controlled by an unseen force… Many suspect it to be the upper echelons of Abyss Country.”
“The high ranks of Abyss Country?” Li Yuan was surprised.
“Yes,” Xu Guo also added, “although it has never been proven, it is also the origin of the word 'Abyssal Demon' in the name of the Blood Den.”
Li Yuan fell silent.
It sounded like many citizens of Abyss Country had a lot of complaints about the Abyss Demon Blood Den.
Regrettably, with great power concentrated among a few, it's destined that the higher-ups of Abyss Country wouldn't pay much attention to the thoughts of the common folk.
As Li Yuan knew, in the Divine Realm, some mighty Heavenly Divine beings ruling over vast starry territories with millions of Life Planets under their command, all were in total slavery… regularly sacrificing a large number of Life Planets.
Even labeled as 'Demon Gods'!!
Yet, those Heavenly Divine beings continued to live freely and at ease, all relying on their formidable power… The rule of Abyss Country was already comparatively peaceful.
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, several hours had elapsed.
The canyon was very quiet.
“Hmm?” Li Yuan suddenly had a premonition, and instantly sensed large numbers of figures emerging in the passages on both sides of the canyon, all moving at an astonishing speed.
