"Fighting is strictly prohibited in Cloud Demon Town. Causing trouble here is nothing, aren't you just courting death?" Danchen said.

"Why?"

"Cloud Demon Town is a place where cultivators of both the righteous and demonic paths live together. If this rule didn't exist, wouldn't Cloud Demon Town have descended into complete chaos long ago? Therefore, over the years, any cultivator who has caused trouble here has never escaped death."

The influence of Cloud Demon Town cannot be underestimated. Even the Dan Sect, the premier sect in the realm of cultivation, would not dare to provoke them easily, which shows just how terrifying the forces behind Cloud Demon Town truly are.

This is precisely why neither righteous cultivators nor demonic practitioners are willing to provoke them.

"That makes sense. Then what do you suggest I do?" Lin Yanghao felt like a cooked duck about to fly away, his heart aching intensely.

"We can only look for another opportunity to make our move once we leave Cloud Demon Town," Danchen sighed and said.

"Does that mean I still have to go to the Demon Sealing Continent?" Lin Yanghao let out a wretched, mournful cry.

"What else did you expect?"

......

Time passed quickly, and the next day arrived. Both Lin Yanghao and Danchen successfully boarded the ship heading to the Demon Sealing Continent.

Danchen ended up sharing a cabin with Lin Yanghao.

"How about we make our move on this ship?" Since they had already left Cloud Demon Town, surely it would be fine to strike while on board, right?

"That is also out of the question," Danchen said with a smile, already anticipating the look of exasperation that would soon appear on Lin Yanghao's face.

"Are you playing with me? It's no good here, and it's no good there. Do we really have to wait until we reach their territory to strike?" Just as Danchen had predicted, Lin Yanghao was indeed rather furious.

"No, fighting is strictly prohibited on this ship as well. Anyone who causes trouble will be killed without mercy."

It was that same reason again. Lin Yanghao was driven to the verge of a breakdown, but he had no other choice.

"Rest assured, opportunities will definitely arise. When they return, they are bound to pass through the Demon Illusion Forest. That will be the prime moment for you to strike," Danchen said.

"That's a relief." Hearing Danchen say this, Lin Yanghao finally felt at ease.

"Although I am not skilled in combat, those few individuals are merely at the Soul Formation stage. Dealing with them shouldn't be a problem for me." In his heart, Danchen had already concluded that Lin Yanghao was no match for those people.

Aside from himself, there was no one else who could possibly help him.

That was why he spoke in such a manner.

"An insignificant matter like this doesn't warrant your personal intervention. I am fully capable of handling it by myself," Lin Yanghao said with absolute confidence. Following his previous battle with Ji Changhen, Lin Yanghao already had a preliminary understanding of his own strength.

Dealing with a few Soul Formation stage cultivators was an absolute breeze for him, and he was not exaggerating in the slightest.

"Treating good intentions like a donkey's liver! Don't come crying to me for help when the time comes." Danchen wore the exact same expression that Gushi had worn back then; how could he possibly believe a word Lin Yanghao was saying?

If Lin Yanghao had claimed he could fight someone at the Nascent Soul stage, he might have considered believing it.

Although cultivators capable of fighting across a realm boundary are rare, they do exist.

However, fighting across two entire realms was utterly impossible—it was practically unheard of.

And what about Lin Yanghao? He actually had the audacity to boast that he could single-handedly take on multiple Soul Formation stage cultivators. How could that possibly be true?

Danchen would never believe that even if it killed him.

"You'll find out the truth when the time comes." Lin Yanghao couldn't be bothered to explain it to him anyway, as it was impossible to make him understand. No matter how much he said, Danchen wouldn't believe a word.

"Then I shall wait and see." Danchen had already prepared himself to watch Lin Yanghao make a fool of himself, waiting to see him come crawling back to beg for assistance.

......

The journey was uneventful and calm. Lin Yanghao and Danchen successfully arrived at the legendary Demon Sealing Continent.

Although the Endless Sea was infested with countless pirates and bandits, not a single one of them was blind or bold enough to hijack a vessel belonging to Auburn.

As it turned out, not only was there a Void Integration stage expert holding down the fort on the ship, but the vessel also possessed formidable backing, supported directly by Cloud Demon Town itself.

That was why no pirates dared to attempt a robbery.

For many years, nothing had ever gone wrong.

"This Demon Sealing Continent doesn't seem all that extraordinary. It's no different from the Northern Domain," Lin Yanghao observed the surroundings of the Demon Sealing Continent, noting that it truly looked identical to the Northern and Southern Domains.

"What do you know? This is merely the outer perimeter of the Demon Sealing Continent. The further you go inside, the denser the demonic qi becomes," Danchen explained.

"So that's how it is."

"Look, the Succubus and the others are leaving. Let's hurry and follow them." Seeing that the Succubus group was departing, Lin Yanghao quickly grabbed Danchen and rushed to tail them. If they lost track of them now, he would truly have tears of regret.

"The friend trailing behind us has been following us this whole way. You might as well reveal yourself. What kind of hero hides and acts so stealthily?" Just as Lin Yanghao was continuing his pursuit, the Succubus and her companions suddenly stopped and shouted out.

"Damn it, we've been spotted," Lin Yanghao cursed under his breath.

He immediately stopped hiding and manifested his form.

Besides, it was already a good time to make a move.

"Kid, it's you!" the Succubus exclaimed in shock. How could she possibly fail to recognize Lin Yanghao? He was the one who had played them for fools back in the Thousand Saints Swamp!

"Of course it's your grandpa here! Succubus, release the person in your hand, and grandpa here will spare your life. What do you think?"

"Ignorant brat, how dare you spout such wild arrogance!" the Demon of Wind raged furiously.

"You came here specifically for this brat? Following us all the way to the Demon Sealing Continent is quite a feat, but is that the capital that gives you the right to run your mouth?" the Succubus mocked. In their eyes, Lin Yanghao's Core Formation stage cultivation was truly not worth mentioning.

Although they knew Lin Yanghao had a few crafty tricks up his sleeve, they hadn't taken him seriously at all.

"Why does nobody ever believe that I can beat you all to a pulp? Why are you all so arrogant?" Lin Yanghao was left speechless. Why was it that every single opponent he encountered looked down on him?

Yet without exception, they all ended up getting beaten into utter fools by him in the end.

"Brat, you're walking right into a trap of your own accord, so don't blame me for what happens next." The Succubus giggled, clearly having already prepared herself to harvest Lin Yanghao's vital essence.

"Whether I'm walking into a trap of my own accord, we'll only find out after we fight." Lin Yanghao had already repeated this phrase several times. Couldn't his opponents use their brains just a little bit?

Did they really not stop to think that he wouldn't come looking for them unless he was fully confident?

Did he look like someone entirely devoid of brains to them?

"Let me, the Demon of Wind, be the first to test your skills." The Demon of Wind let out a loud shout and was the first to charge at Lin Yanghao.

"You all might as well attack together. Otherwise, a puny little Demon of Wind isn't even enough for me to warm up with," Lin Yanghao provoked the Succubus, the Demon of Wind, and the others.

At the same time, he secretly channeled his Divine Strike Art, while reinforcing his body with a Protective Talisman and a Divine Power Talisman.

Otherwise, relying solely on his original strength, how could he possibly be a match for these several individuals?

"You go too far, brat!" The Demon of Wind was practically bursting with rage, wishing he could swallow Lin Yanghao whole right then and there.

"Demon of Wind, since he has already invited us, why should we let down his kind intentions? What are you standing around for? Let's attack together!" the Succubus said with a charming laugh.

Having suffered a loss last time, Lin Yanghao would certainly not allow himself to be affected by the Succubus's charm techniques again.
