Chapter 208
After being carefully verified and confirmed as true by Shen Yan, this peculiar battle report quickly made its way to the desk of the leader of the Blood Lotus Sect.
Within the heartland fully controlled and cleansed of all Demonic Sect forces by the Blood Lotus Sect, the mysterious disappearance of three hundred followers caused frowns.
Among the upper echelons of the Blood Lotus Sect, the spread of this battle report sparked a ripple of unease.
Some attempted to dispatch forces to uncover the truth behind this incident.
The name Li Muyang, along with this peculiar battle report, appeared in the sight of the high-ranking members of the Blood Lotus Sect.
Some also recognized the significance of the Martial God Tyrant Body.
If this trend continued, Li Muyang, who had fled into the deep mountains, would face relentless pursuit by the Blood Lotus Sect until he had nowhere to hide.
But just as the troops preparing to join the hunt were about to set out, the long-planned total assault by the Demon Refining Sect reached this land.
Millions of mortal soldiers, driven by the powers of the Demonic Sect, poured into this land, divided into six routes to enter this forbidden zone for cultivators.
The vast land, bathed in sunlight, was submerged by a dark tide of people.The endless banners and figures crisscrossed, stretching to the horizon.
The overwhelming numerical advantage brought great pressure to the uprising Blood Lotus Sect.
The followers of the Blood Lotus Sect, who had been searching the mountains to hunt down Demonic Sect cultivators, gradually withdrew.
The wilderness and forests that had hidden dozens of Demonic Sect disciples suddenly became empty and silent, no longer roamed by humans with red headbands and weapons in search.
In the continuous drizzle over this land, Li Muyang lay silently on the edge of a cliff, overlooking the dark forests below.
Half a day earlier, a ragged Demonic Sect disciple had fled into this area and entered his line of sight.
But Li Muyang did not reveal himself. Instead, he lay in wait in the shadows, silently watching the other leave.
He had been hiding in these forests for five days, and the search and pursuit by the Blood Lotus Sect initially caused him some trouble.
But as those followers of the Blood Lotus Sect gradually left, the forest became quiet once again.
Li Muyang estimated the days and the counterattack from the Demonic Sect to be about due.
He vaguely guessed the reason why the pursuers from the Blood Lotus Sect had withdrawn, but without concrete information, Li Muyang remained cautious and did not rashly show himself.
He lay in hiding within the mountain forest for two days. During this time, he saw several Demonic Sect cultivators crossing the forest and fleeing eastward, but Li Muyang did not move.
On the cliff where he was hiding, there was a narrow and concealed cave.
The place was extremely steep, so steep that even warriors who had tempered their bodies would find it difficult to climb.
Moreover, it offered a wide view, allowing one to see several li away to the official road.
If the Blood Lotus Sect made any new moves, Li Muyang, lying in wait here, would be able to detect them very quickly.
He was waiting for the progress of the battle.
The best outcome would be for the Demon Refining Sect to dispatch a large army, easily crushing the Blood Lotus Sect’s uprising like crushing dry weeds and smashing rotten wood.
This would allow him to leave this place with ease and return to the sect.
Of course, if the Demon Refining Sect and the Blood Lotus Sect were locked in a protracted and bitter struggle and unable to overcome each other, Li Muyang could also take the opportunity to slip away quietly amidst the chaos.
For now, all he needed was patience.
After closing his eyes, Li Muyang entered the system within the cave on the cliff.
A loading progress bar appeared in his field of vision.
This new game appeared yesterday.
In the previous days, Li Muyang had been playing and interacting closely with Xiao Yecao in the fourth stage of 《Deadly Weed》.
He played the game to pass the time while in hiding.
However, the appearance of the new game shifted Li Muyang’s attention.
【Fun Mini-Game–《Endless Evolution》Loaded Successfully】
When the new game’s progress bar reached 100%, the game icon appeared in the system’s list.
《Beginner Tutorial–The Mystery of Loushan City》(Closed)
《Deadly Weed》(4/5)
《Three Kingdoms: Demon Subduing Record》(Closed)
《Legend of Sword and Fairy》(Closed)
《The Call of the Mountains》(Closed)
《Endless Evolution》(New)
Looking at the new game in the list, Li Muyang was somewhat puzzled.
“Fun mini-game?”
What kind of new game type was this?
Like Tetris?
Did the system create a fun mini-game for him to pass the time because it saw him bored?
Li Muyang was curious and clicked to enter.
He saw the scroll in his field of vision begin to flow, eventually transforming into a vast forest under a continuous drizzle.
In this vast forest with incessant rain, insects chirped, birds flew, and wild beasts roamed.
But this time, there was no familiar opening CG or narrative text.
After entering the game, the system directly jumped to the character selection interface.
However, this time the character selection was different from usual.
What appeared in Li Muyang’s vision were three animals of different shapes.
【Emerald Blade Mantis: An elegant hunter in the forest, an expert at catching flying insects, its emerald-green blade-like arms can slice through formidable enemies, and its light body can fly for short distances】(Evolution Potential 120%)
【Ghost-Faced Mandrill: A legendary spirit-eating demon that wanders the forest alone, robust and strong, its howling seems to bewilder the mind, and it is known to eat humans】(Evolution Potential 70%)
【Lord of Mount Wu: A fierce beast that roams the wilderness, known in legends as the king of all beasts, has lived for a certain number of years, possesses divine powers, can command ghosts, and eats humans】(Evolution Potential 30%)
The three animals in the field of vision, on the far left was an emerald blade mantis standing on a leaf, looking incredibly agile.
In the middle was a ghost-faced mandrill sheltering from the rain on a tree, its robust and strong figure almost as tall as an adult’s chest. Its face, smeared with oil paint-like patterns, made one’s brows furrow.
On the far right was a fierce and intimidating spotted tiger.
Looking at the three animals in his field of vision, Li Muyang pondered for a moment and chose the first one, the emerald blade mantis.
This game was called Endless Evolution, and the three animals had different evolutionary potentials…
Was it the type of game where you devour things to level up?
Evolving from an egg into a kun?
Like those crappy browser game ads from his previous life?
Li Muyang found it somewhat interesting, so he chose the emerald blade mantis with the highest evolutionary potential.
Then, the image of the emerald blade mantis zoomed in quickly in his field of vision, and the other two beasts disappeared.
Li Muyang, from a third-person perspective, looked down at the mantis on the leaf and began to control the mantis to leap.
Attack, jump, and even fly short distances.
After Li Muyang got familiar with the controls, a devouring target popped up in his field of vision.
【Please kill the winged moth to obtain Evolution Points】
Seeing the target indicator that appeared in his field of vision, Li Muyang realized.
“So it really is an evolution game.”
He controlled the mantis to fly out and quickly found the moth designated by the system in a dry tree hollow.
After a simple battle, Li Muyang defeated the moth, and the emerald blade mantis gained 3% Evolution Points.
