Chapter 532: Past Life Extra Story Seven_2
Yingbao carefully accepted each of them and concentrated on absorbing their power.
Eventually, one day, Yingbao overheard the cultivators who used to bleed her discussing the upcoming selection competition hosted by the Chen Family every three years. The chosen ones would have the honor to join the Wuji Sect.
Yingbao knew that the previous competition held by the Chen Family, lasting for several days, had resulted in the absence of any Chen Family members in the cave.
This was an opportunity.
After once again being bled, Yingbao feigned unconsciousness to lower the Chen family’s guard.
At night, she overheard the guards had fallen asleep. She undid the Binding Soul Lock, even collecting the Xuanite cages into her Divine Mansion.
She then opened all the cages containing the demonic beasts and gave them some high-level Spiritual Medicine to recover their Spiritual Power.
Of course, she did not leave the Xuanite cages behind either, collecting them all into her Divine Mansion.
If she failed this time, she might never escape again. Therefore, she had resolved to succeed or perish trying.
Step by step, she walked towards the mouth of the cave, her heart pounding wildly.
Over twenty demonic beasts quietly followed behind her without making a single sound.
Getting to the iron gate, Yingbao hit the lock with a streak of flame, gradually melting the thick Xuanite lock.
She didn’t know how high her cultivation base was, but the fire she launched into the guard room instantly turned four guards into ashes.
These guards were all at the Foundation Establishment stage.
The passageway of the cave was long, and there were two more locked Xuanite gates.
Yingbao destroyed all the iron doors to allow the giant demonic beasts to exit easily.
Arriving at the last Xuanite door, the guards outside sighted Yingbao once she had melted the lock. He frantically sounded an alarm but was immediately turned into ashes by her flame.
Yingbao covered the exit as the demon beasts squeezed out of the cave. Only when they had all exited did she mount a gigantic beast and rush outwards.
This place was supposed to be the restricted area of the Chen Family, and in the chaos, Yingbao couldn’t identify which direction to escape to.
A bird-like demonic beast soared into the sky and guided Yingbao the way to escape.
In no time, many cultivators from the Chen Family arrived. Most were at the Foundation Establishment stage, but there were a few Core Formation agents.
However, at this moment, Yingbao regarded them as insignificant as ants.
She released a net of flames, and the cultivators of the Foundation Establishment stage fell like burning butterflies.
Naked, Yingbao rode on the back of the demon beast, her long hair rippling like seaweed, her body encircled by flames.
Seeing her, the cultivators thought she must be some terrifying spirit.
“Not good! This woman is at the Nascent Soul stage, quickly call the ancestor!” someone shouted in alarm.
Yingbao merely cast them a cold look, unfazed.
The gigantic beast hopped and darted away, quickly escaping the premises of the Chen Family territory.
Standing tall above the Chen Family estate, Yingbao let loose a streak of flame with a flick of her hand.
The flames, like slithering snakes, leapt towards the buildings and people, swallowing each and every one of them.
As long as she survived, the flames would surely burn them all to nothingness.
Yingbao let out a triumphant howl, rallying the demon beasts towards the city gate.
“You fiend! Where do you think you’re going!” A golden light descended from the sky, shooting towards Yingbao.
Yingbao drew her sword and swung at the attack.
But her sword shattered, crumbling like tofu.
Yingbao spat out a mouthful of blood, hastily throwing out a gigantic Xuanite cage.
The demonic beast she sat on roared, carrying her into a frenzied run.
Beasts continually fell around her, but other beasts filled in, ferociously guarding Yingbao in their midst.
They quickly arrived at the city gate, where many cultivators were stationed.
One of them brought forward a woman and a man, shouting at Yingbao, “Surrender, or they die!”
Yingbao’s eyes narrowed. Upon recognizing who they were, she laughed loudly.
Fire engulfed her body, and she suddenly charged towards the city gate.
Wherever her flames passed by, everything was reduced to ashes, including the Xuanite city gate.
One beast after another stampeded out, scattering in every direction.
When the cultivators pursued, most of the demonic beasts had already disappeared.
It turned out that Yingbao had given some of the beasts Escape Talismans, allowing them to escape the vicinity of the Vermilion Bird City as quickly as possible. She and the beast carrying her had used a long-distance Escape Talisman, instantly appearing in a forest.
Currently, she was seriously injured, lying on the back of the demon beast, unable to move.
The previous attack had shattered her internal organs. If not for her unique constitution, she would likely have died already.
Perhaps the high-level cultivator assumed the same, thus he didn’t continue to pursue her. After all, she appeared to be a child of around ten, who due to years of torture, looked as frail as an eight- or nine-year-old.
After an indeterminate amount of time, Yingbao woke to find herself nestled in the soft belly of the demon beast.
