Chapter 361: 361, 【Scatter My Ashes】 (Seeking monthly votes at the end of the month!)
The Demon Sect was located in the Eastern Region, quite a distance away from the Southern Territory, where the Uncold Forest was.
After leaving the large area of the Eastern Region, one would have to pass through three smaller areas to reach the border of the Southern Territory.
The seven paper cranes flew relatively quickly. After leaving the Eastern Region, Lu Xun suddenly changed direction, deviating from the guidance on the map.
“Huh, why is the Purple Palace taking a detour?” Mo Guanji and co. wondered in their hearts.
But they didn’t think too much about it, after all, we have a map, and the Purple Palace doesn’t!
The navigation function was exclusive to players. Even if the Purple Palace was impressive, it was ultimately just an NPC without this function.
Therefore, in their eyes, occasionally taking a detour was normal.
Moreover, for them, no matter where Lu Xun went, they just had to follow him faithfully.
A mature player should understand the importance of humbling themselves, building favorability with NPCs, reaping great benefits. And then, they can show off in front of other players!
“NPCs are just data, there’s no shame in kneeling to data.” The suck-ups reasoned.
Lu Xun didn’t care about what the Sword-Serving Children were thinking at this moment.
The reason he suddenly took a detour was that not long after leaving the Eastern Region, he sensed the presence of the Foreign Race nearby!
“A disgusting aura.” Lu Xun’s eyes were slightly cold as he muttered to himself.
…
…
Ever since he swallowed the Dao Bead, Lu Xun gained 1 point of Primordial Power.
As his personal strength increased, his range of sensing the Foreign Race was also expanding.
Especially when his Spiritual Power reached 4 points, his senses became incredibly sharp.
“There are a total of 9 of them, the weakest being level 26, the highest at level 39.” Lu Xun told himself.
—— They can be killed!
Since they can be killed, he didn’t mind spending some time to detour and kill these “monsters”.
Meanwhile, he also wanted to test the current capability of his six Sword-Serving Children.
The paper cranes quickly flew in the sky, going higher and higher.
Soon, they encountered the nine men flying on their artifacts mid-air.
Seeing these nine red-named guys, Li Zuole and co. were almost drooling.
“Foreign Race! It’s the Foreign Race!” they shouted in their hearts.
Ever since the Contribution Points Mall and the Faction Contribution Points Rankings were opened, players dreamt of killing more Foreign Races.
Exchanging items was secondary. Mainly, they wanted to rank high and show off.
We are all educated people, is it a crime to want to show off?
If it wasn’t for the fact that Lu Xun was sitting on the paper crane without making a move, they were afraid of upsetting Lu Xun. And with these red-named monsters’ high levels, they seemed unlikely to win. Otherwise, they might already be shouting and charging to kill the monsters.
The 39-level Foreign Race man at the front saluted Lu Xun in a friendly manner and guided his artifact to change direction and fly past them.
Although Heavenly Dust Continent was boundless, it was common for cultivators to come across other cultivators in the sky. Just like with cars, as long as one party makes way, it’s fine.
Foreign Races now behave more discreetly than before, refraining from causing unnecessary troubles and appearing polite and well-mannered on the surface.
However, what they didn’t expect was that when they turned to try and fly past, the man at the leader of the other group, who wore a bamboo hat, maneuvered his paper crane to block them again.
The wind picked up and gently lifted a corner of the veil from under the bamboo hat, revealing his chin and lips.
His lips moved slightly, and although his tone was calm, his words were startling to the Foreign Race.
What he said was:
“This road is closed.”
Your journey ends here.
…
…
Hearing Lu Xun’s words, not only were the enemies shocked, even his allies were surprised.
“Holy shit! Can the Purple Palace discern the identity of the Foreign Race?” That thought crossed their minds.
But they quickly felt that it made sense.
After all, the Purple Palace is the World Protagonist, it wouldn’t be strange for him to have this ability.
Moreover, the one who originally led all the players to trigger the mainline task of the Foreign Invasion was actually him, the Purple Palace!
Just as the Foreign Races were surprised, Lu Xun made his move.
