Chapter 869: The Land of the Unknown!
Today, although Su Yi and his companions managed to escape from the powerful force at Sacred Mountain, their survival was unexpected and fortunate. Compared to the might of Sacred Mountain, their escape seemed nearly impossible.
The Divine Sword School and other forces like it, with thousands of years of heritage, cannot shake Sacred Mountain’s position, let alone a handful of young people. Over millennia, countless outstanding individuals have risen from these forces, yet Sacred Mountain has remained unshakable.
Many reluctantly agreed with this view. Despite Su Yi’s and his group’s extraordinary abilities, Sacred Mountain remains Sacred Mountain.
“But this time is different,” someone argued. “Su Yi, Xu Chen, and their companions are incredibly strong, with unparalleled talents. Even Nan Ruyu suffered a miserable defeat. And in front of Elder Saint Fire, they managed to escape safely. Besides, there’s even a possibility they have a baby Divine Bird Phoenix with them!”
A few believed that Su Yi and his group, given time, might rise to challenge Sacred Mountain. After all, many miraculous things had occurred. These believers were confident it wouldn’t be long before Su Yi retaliated.
However, others remained skeptical. “It’s hard to say. I heard that Su Yi and Xu Chen couldn’t escape far. The Sacred Mountain’s forces are scouring the area. They are severely injured, and if caught, it will be the end for them!”
Amidst cautious whispers, powerful individuals from Sacred Mountain hunted for Su Yi and his allies. Should they be captured, their fate would be sealed.
While discussions raged, exceptional prodigies earned nicknames. Among them, Su Yi, Xu Chen, and Flame Scale gained the most recognition. Unbeknownst to Su Yi, his name had already spread across the Central Region.

That night, under the bright moon, the moonlight bathed the city of the Central Region in a silvery glow.
In the City Master’s mansion, Wang Quande, Kuang Guilan, Ouyang Yuanfeng, and others gathered in a side hall, their expressions grim.
“I can’t believe that kid escaped—it’s infuriating!” Kuang Guilan seethed, clenching her fists. The stronger Su Yi became, the slimmer her chances of exacting revenge.
Ouyang Yuanfeng added solemnly, “Those people are a threat to Sacred Mountain. Though they escaped with external help, Elder Saint Fire heavily injured them, collapsing the space channel. If they survived, they couldn’t have gone far. Hopefully, Sacred Mountain’s forces will find them soon.”
Wang Quande muttered bitterly, “It’s maddening. Such a pity… luck wasn’t on my side.”
His gaze flickered as he reflected on the opportunities he had missed. Su Yi had possessed countless treasures, and Wang Quande lamented not taking advantage earlier. Now, the thought of Su Yi’s potential haunted him.
“That boy is too dangerous. If he doesn’t die, I’ll never let him go,” Wang Quande vowed.

When Su Yi regained consciousness, familiar voices greeted him.
“Boss, you’re awake! Finally!”
The cheerful, youthful voice chirped in his ears. Opening his eyes, Su Yi saw Su Xiaoshuai, the colorful bird, staring at him.
“I’m alive…” Su Yi murmured, realizing his survival. He lay on the ground, with Su Xiaoshuai’s figure above him and a cloudless blue sky stretching endlessly. The sound of waves suggested they were near the sea.
A sharp wave of pain jolted through his body, reminding him of his injuries. His muscles, bones, and internal organs screamed in agony. The Void God Sea within him was dry, leaving him without strength.
“Boss, I’m so glad you’re okay!” Su Xiaoshuai exclaimed, his tension giving way to relief.
After an hour, Su Yi mustered enough energy to begin activating the Supreme Chaotic Yuan Technique. Slowly, vitality returned to his depleted Void God Sea, spreading through his meridians and nourishing his shattered body.
The process was excruciating—his cells and muscles, like parched sponges, hungrily absorbed the energy. The pain was unbearable, but Su Yi persisted. Gradually, he regained enough strength to sit up, despite the sharp ache in his body.
His clothes were in tatters, barely covering him. Scars and dried blood marked his body, evidence of his miraculous self-healing. The Indestructible Vajra Body had worked tirelessly, ensuring his survival.
“Boss, how are you now?” Su Xiaoshuai asked nervously, his gaze fixed on Su Yi.
“I’m fine. How about the others?” Su Yi asked, scanning the surroundings for Xi Wuqing, Xu Chen, and the rest of his companions.
