I Don't Want to Get Hurt, So I'll Max Out My Defense-Chapter 960 - 961: Return to the Immortal Spirit Continent
Chapter 960: Chapter 961: Return to the Immortal Spirit Continent
“Quick, get in!”
“We’re free at last!”
The spatial portal opened, and two men along with a dog eagerly entered and disappeared from sight.
The passageway was the same as when they had arrived, the interior dominated by void turbulence, separated by an invisible force, forming a stable path for them to tread.
“Even a Saint Realm powerhouse couldn’t survive in the depths of this void, could they?”
Li Xiaobai glanced at the void turbulence just inches away, thinking involuntarily.
...
“Woof, kid, we definitely need to settle this account!”
Ergouzi spoke, recalling how it had been deceived within the Buddha Country realm, stripped of even its undergarments; first by Li Xiaobai, then Liu Jinshui, and now even the Buddhist Sect was involved. Serving as a Buddhist had brought it nothing but frustration and no benefits at all.
“Don’t worry, we’ll settle the scores one by one; no one will get away!”
“This time, let’s start by cleaning up those Central Origin Realm forces stationed in the Immortal Spirit Continent and collect some interest,” Xiaobai said calmly. Having witnessed the dangers of the Buddha Country, he was confident, possessing the Divine Artifact altar that could send him back there at any time.
What they didn’t know was that at this very moment, inside the Buddhist Pagoda, two old men slyly made their way to the Five-colored Small Altar.
“Eh, old rascal, come take a look. What kind of altar is this, and where does this spatial channel lead?”
Yitilou waved frantically at Yan Zuzi, excited as if he had discovered a new continent. These young people did indeed have a way out.
“Hiss!”
“This is the Five-colored Altar, the key to communicating between two realms. These juniors actually have access to one; no wonder they don’t seem panicky at all. If I am not wrong, the other end of this channel leads to the Earth Spirit Realm!”
Yan Zuzi exclaimed, his eyes gleaming, breath turning somewhat rapid.
A small pile of top-grade Immortal Stones remained within the crack, rapidly depleting to maintain the opening of the channel. Once the Immortal Stones were exhausted, the channel would close automatically.
“Earth Spirit Realm?”
“That barbaric place?”
“Does this mean we can really get out?”
Upon hearing this, Yitilou also grew excited. As long as he could leave the Buddhist Pagoda and regain his freedom, it did not matter where the place was.
“Yes, but the spatial barriers in the Earth Spirit Realm are quite weak; we probably won’t be able to practice comfortably there. If we go, we might have to seal our cultivation levels,” Yan Zuzi pondered for a moment and analyzed.
“Then let’s seal it. It’s still better than staying in this godforsaken place. We’ve been sealed for hundreds of years. A little more time doesn’t matter. Let’s hurry and slip through while the channel is still open!”

Yitilou was impatient.
“Old Lou, you’re right. We’re gonna be free at last!”
…
Meanwhile, on the Immortal Spirit Continent.
In the borderlands, deep within a battlefield, in a certain jungle.
A group of cultivators was bound hand and foot, with a few opulently dressed young men following haughtily behind, their cronies mercilessly whipping the captives.
“Hurry up, move faster! I want to see what this Flesh Mountain you speak of is all about!”
A young man in red spoke. His name was Yan Que, and he was an Inner Sect Disciple of the Great Flame Dynasty. He had followed King Weiwu to the Lower Realm to pioneer new territories, and in this time, he had gained quite a few achievements.
“Prince Yan, you think too highly of them. What could these savages from the Barbaric Lands know? Flesh Mountain is nothing more than slightly larger ants, it’s absurd they regard it as taboo and fear to touch it,” another young man in white robes scoffed coldly. His disdain clear in his voice, he hailed from the Eastern Continent, a core disciple of a mid-sized sect with a cultivation level of Human Immortal Realm, in this continent where Half-step Human Immortals were revered. This barbaric land was like their backyard to be whimsically manipulated and dominated.
“As far as I’m concerned, only their women have any use, knowing how to please us. The rest are worthless.”
“Hehe, indeed, Miss Yang Huan, this young master respects you and offers you a chance. Should you become this young master’s woman, imagine the benefits. I hear your father is the Chief City Lord here, and with the backing of our Great Flame Dynasty, he could rest easy. Why would you not wish for such a thing?”
Yan Que said indifferently to a female cultivator among the slaves.
“In your dreams!”
“You think this lady would submit to cultured scum like you? Bah!”
“Wait until you see the true terror deep in the frontier, then you will understand the might of the Immortal Spirit Continent!”
A pale-faced female cultivator glared and spat, her face full of anger, not giving face to anyone.
“Sharp-tongued, but as this young master is idle today, I don’t mind playing with you to show you the vast gap between heaven and earth.”
Coldness flickered in Yan Que’s eyes; he did not erupt immediately. He wanted to utterly crush this woman’s defiance and persistence in front of her.
But it was at that moment that a servant suddenly exclaimed, pointing in one direction, “Young master, there’s a disturbance over there!”
“Hmm?”
Yan Que and his people looked in the direction the servant was pointing and saw a small mound not far away suddenly crack open, revealing a Five-colored Altar with a dazzling, brilliant light emanating from it.
A wild wind howled across the wasteland, and the Spiritual Power in the space gathered toward the Five-colored Altar, swirling into a high-energy Spiritual Power Vortex. The sky instantly darkened, with lightning flashing and thunder booming above, a heart-palpitating essence diffusing out from the vast vortex.
Seeing this scene, everyone at the scene shuddered.
“What… what is this thing? It faintly permeates with Immortal Yuan Power!”
The young man in white robes appeared nervous. The situation was too eerie, and anyone could tell that something was about to emerge from that vortex!
“This is a Five-colored Altar!”
“There’s actually a Five-colored Altar here, someone is communicating through a space channel!”
“There are only five altars in total, why is there an extra one here? Who is controlling it?”
Yan Que was also somewhat dumbfounded. There were supposed to be only five Five-colored Altars, one in each direction – east, south, west, north, and center – now firmly controlled by the various forces of the Central Origin Realm. Why was there an extra one in this frontier? And why did it activate at this exact critical moment? Which powerful elder was trying to cross over?
“Brother Yan, shall we withdraw now and return another day?”
The young man in white robes felt somewhat uneasy.
“Well said, the identity of the newcomers is unknown, and the sudden appearance of an extra altar must be reported to the Prince early!”
Yan Que nodded. They were only at the Human Immortal Realm, and in the Immortal Spirit Continent, this Barbaric Land, they could do as they pleased, but if they encountered an equally skilled expert from the Central Origin Realm, they were nothing.
“Bullies and cowards, we won’t go with you!”
“Tuck your tail and run!”
Yang Huan angrily rebuked them. Rather than being humiliated by these pompous princely heirs, she would rather face a quick death under the palm of a powerful elder.
“Exactly, death comes to all, and being struck dead by a powerful being is still honorable. We accept our fate!”
“After a hundred and eighty years, when we are reincarnated, I’ll be a brave man again!”
The other bound cultivators also roared angrily, ready to face death.
“A bunch of swine dares to resist!”
“This young master is an Inner Sect Disciple of the Great Flame Dynasty, backed by the colossal Sword Sect. Even if an elder descends, they would show some degree of respect. What are you things to act so brazenly before me!”
“Ah Cai, except for this woman named Yang Huan, kill all the others! These barbarians from this tiny land dare to defy our Central Origin Realm, utterly ignorant!”
Yan Que’s tone was icy as he pointed coldly at the prisoners before him.
But before the servants could act, everyone heard several carefree voices.
“Woof! I’m free now!”
“Immortal Spirit Continent, Ol’Fatty is back!”
