Wanting to Live Well but Surpassing the Protagonist – 48 Hell Difficulty
“The humans have all been eaten. It’s so boring. Why do we have to stay here instead of going elsewhere to find more humans to eat? I heard that the immortal body hasn’t been found yet. I also want to taste the blood and flesh of immortals.” Near the exit of the secret realm, several Nascent Soul Stage monsters were bored and started to chat.
“Lord Mofeng told us to guard here, so we guard here. Why are there so many questions?”
“I do know the reason. I heard that a Foundation Establishment human used a Divine-level magic weapon and directly killed more than 200,000 small demons, and even dozens of Great demons. It was very strange. We are guarding here to completely block his escape route and not give him any chance to escape.”
“A Divine-level magic weapon? Foundation Establishment? Is it true or fake? Are you sure he won’t be backlashed by the magic weapon and be sucked dry?”
“Everyone present at the time said so, so it shouldn’t be fake. Otherwise, why do you think two Crystal Transformations and one Foundation Establishment could escape the encirclement of hundreds of thousands of monsters?”
“That’s true.”
As they were talking, a loud bang suddenly came from afar.
The monsters all used their eyesight to the extreme and saw a human cultivator flying in the distance, his whole body emitting a golden light, like an immortal.
Perhaps because they were too far apart, they couldn’t sense his cultivation, but just looking at the holy light emitted from his body, it was very likely that he was a saint who was about to transcend the tribulation and ascend.
“How could a human saint appear here!?”
“When did he break in!?”
They could see that a group of monsters were flying in from the west. The human cultivator simply made a void palm print, and directly killed that group of monsters, leaving no trace of them.
Moreover, after he killed that group of monsters, he began to fly towards this side, scaring all the monsters near the exit into a panic.
Just when the monster was panicking, afraid, and running around, two large and one small, very inconspicuous weak monster were sneaking towards the exit.
Needless to say, these three weaklings were Ye Yong and the others.
I bet you’re thinking, “How is it possible for them to see projection technology, a high-tech product from another world, no matter how high their cultivation base is?” What’s the key? It’s not that expensive! Like the ‘ Pathfinder’ and the ‘monster’ that were killed on the road, they are all customized. For only 500 reversal points, you can play lifelike projections from all angles and without dead ends.
Although it has no real effect and is only a visual effect, it can still scare a group of monsters who have never seen the world.
In addition, Ye Yong also made some protective preparations, such as each person carrying a defensive item that can withstand attacks from the mid-level Shen. This is the most expensive reversal point, costing a total of 120,000, which can withstand three attacks respectively .
Ye Yong has always been very careful and cautious. In addition to the defensive items, he also bought a mid-level defensive formation in case of emergencies.
Just as he thought, all the monsters were fooled by the projection technology. Including Qin Shimeng and Liang Xiaorou who were following him. If Ye Yong hadn’t pulled them forward, they would have been stunned.
The surrounding monsters were so frightened that they fled in all directions. Ye Yong took them to the exit very smoothly. Ye Yong had just taken out the item to ignore the ban and open the exit when a small monster fire suddenly fell from the sky , enough to destroy the three of them.
Qin Shimeng reacted very quickly. She immediately rushed up and used a defensive item to block the attack.
Ye Yong was not idle either. He set up the formation on the spot that could withstand the mid-level god because the item to unblock would take some time to take effect.
The ban-lifting item began to glow and operate. Suddenly, a demon wind carrying the breath of death fell down.
The defensive magic formation sold by the system can not only defend against physical attacks but also against spiritual attacks.
I can feel the breath of death through the formation… Mid-level God? No, it’s the late stage!?
Ye Yong’s heart skipped a beat at that moment. He never expected that one of the two late-stage 神魔 beast would be guarding here.
Without thinking, Liang Xiaorou and Qin Shimeng jumped up as if by conditioned reflex, intending to block the demon wind for Ye Yong.
However, the late-stage Shen Yaofeng apparently exceeded the load of the formation and the item. The formation instantly shattered, and the energy released by the item to protect the body also dissipated immediately. The two of them vomited a few mouthfuls of blood, and even the effect of the disguise item disappeared. They turned back into human bodies and fell heavily to the ground. Only a faint breath indicated that they were still alive.
After the attack passed through the formation, Qin Shimeng and Liang Xiaorou had triple resistance, and Ye Yong was not injured, but seeing them lying in a pool of blood, his heart felt like it was being cut by a knife, more painful and uncomfortable than if he had been injured himself. Everything happened too fast, completely shattering his expectations. Ye Yong immediately put away the ban-lifting item, picked up the two blood-soaked people, and flew away at high speed on the Liuguang Needle.
“Oh?” A slightly surprised voice came from behind a cloud in the sky. It was obvious that it did not expect this outcome. The speed of the Liuguang Needle was too fast, so fast that its naked eye could not catch up.
And Ye Yong, who was far away, looked back at the place where the demon wind came from for a moment, his eyes filled with intense killing intent and anger.

“Cough cough cough!” Qin Shimeng opened her eyes. She wanted to sit up, but found that her whole body was weak, but there was no pain.
She looked around. This was an unfamiliar cave.
“You’re awake.” Ye Yong, who had finished setting up the blindfold outside the cave, came to her and sat down, gently stroking her face. “How do you feel?”
“Weak.”
“It’s normal to be weak because you lost a lot of blood.”
“You… saved me again.” Qin Shimeng felt much calmer as she felt Ye Yong’s caress.
“You saved me.”
Maybe the late-stage Demon King didn’t use all its strength, maybe the quality of the items sold by the system was too good, maybe the female protagonist’s halo took effect, or maybe it was all three. Qin Shimeng and Liang Xiaorou still had a breath left after withstanding that attack. If it were a supporting character, it would be considered a blessing from heaven if they could keep their bodies intact.
Qin Shimeng has the blood of the ice phoenix in her body, so she can be reborn once through Nirvana. Liang Xiaorou is really close to dying. If Ye Yong hadn’t spent tens of thousands of reversal points to buy a ninth-grade pill , I’m afraid that the only female protagonist left would be Qin Shimeng, and her cultivation base would be gone, and she would need to start over.
“I’m sorry for making you take such a risk for my stupid plan.” Ye Yong looked at Liang Xiaorou, who was still in a coma, and couldn’t help but sigh.
Obviously, they didn’t have much strength on the previous journey, but at that critical moment, they made such a dangerous move to protect him. Ye Yong really didn’t know what to say.
“Your plan is not stupid. On the contrary, it’s very clever and effective. At least we didn’t find out until we were close to the exit that the other party attacked us.” Qin Shimeng reached out weakly and touched Ye Yong’s face . “Don’t forget that you are still in the Foundation Establishment stage. You are the only one in the world who can escape from the late-stage God.”
“You flatter me.” Now Ye Yong only has 180,000 reversal points. The previous action cost him 200,000 and ended in failure. With 180,000 reversal points, how many times can he escape from the god?
“Please don’t be self-effacing. You’ve done very well.” Qin Shimeng’s favorability rating increased by 5 points at this time. This rich woman now gives more than 4,000 reversal points for 1 point of favorability, and immediately earns more than 20,000, but it’s still not enough.
Ye Yong sighed secretly.
I knew I shouldn’t have had the idea of saving as much as I could. If I had bought a defensive item for the late-stage God directly, none of this would have happened. It’s a pity that there are not so many things I should have known earlier. And the monsters are also more cautious than he thought. Maybe because the protagonist is not there, the debuff of lowering intelligence is not applied, so they are just playing at their usual level.
Ye Yong admitted that the plug-in gave him convenience. He didn’t have to work as hard as the protagonist to run around looking for resources, but relatively speaking, he didn’t have the protagonist’s various BUFFs. For example, if the faces a world of medium difficulty after the intelligence is reduced, then he faces a world of high protagonist difficulty in its original flavor. No, it should be said that the current encounter is a hellish difficulty. Otherwise, how could it be so outrageous to encounter the god stage at the Foundation Establishment stage?
Ye Yong’s head started to ache again.
