Chapter 205: Chapter 201: Heaven and Earth Net

Wang Wu hesitated for a few seconds, then silently took off his clothes, put away the Invisibility Cloak, and with a thought, his Qi Blood changed, transforming him from human form into bear form.

Then, he took out two Eighth-Grade Spiritual Qi Practice Pills, consuming 12,500 Points of Spiritual Qi, raising his Danger Perception from Level 16 to Level 17, resulting in an effect of 17+1.1+1.

He consumed another 5,000 Points of Spiritual Qi to elevate his Spirit Essence to Level 12.

Subsequently, he activated the Perception Demon Pill, instantly pushing his Danger Perception to Level 19.1.

From this point, with the stacking of the two major talents, the effect exploded instantly.

This time, when he closed his eyes, he could clearly sense that along the entire massive mountain contour, there was a thin layer of Spiritual Mist slithering like a spiritual snake.

However, this was not a real spiritual snake, but a type of surveillance array in operation.

Besides, every twelve seconds, he could perceive a very intense wave of Spiritual Qi, as if it were the scorching sun, randomly shining upon potential hiding places around the mountain.

The last irradiation was just three hundred meters away from Wang Wu.

At this moment, Wang Wu was genuinely shocked into a cold sweat, hastily retreating breathlessly ten miles backward, because he had indeed been lucky; in his previous human form, he would have definitely been exposed by this intense wave of Spiritual Qi.

What kind of Human Race Cultivator made such a big commotion at the boundary between Centipede Ridge and Heavenly Dao Mountain?

This surveillance array must cover at least five to six hundred miles around.

Like a giant radar, not even a mosquito could dream of flying past.

And since there’s one here, it’s not hard to guess that there will be others elsewhere.

In fact, he had already vaguely sensed that there were large radiation sources in both the north and south directions.

This meant the reconnaissance arrays had completely linked together, sealing off the entire Centipede Ridge area.

But could all of this be aimed at him?

Wang Wu’s heart skipped a beat.

He thought it unlikely; did he have such great prestige?

Moreover, six years had passed, and just maintaining this surveillance array annually must consume astronomical resources.

But thinking carefully, it could indeed be possible that he did have such significant prestige.

For no other reason, his ancestor once served as a Demon Emperor, renowned alongside Grandpa Tree, one of the Nine Great Heroes of the Wilderness; that was enough.

Perhaps even Lu Wuchen might have been alerted this time.

“Anticipate generously! If I were Lu Wuchen, I’d be on edge too!”

“That old guy always liked to smother the rising stars of the Demon Race! If I didn’t slip up, it’d be fine, but if this got leaked to Lv Dongyang, that’s different.”

Wang Wu couldn’t help but recall seeing Yuan Bupu, Tiger Vanguard, Little Wild Boar, and a silhouette of Old Niu on that high mountain a few days ago.

At the time, he was rather puzzled why they, as henchmen of Xiong Shiliu, would publicly occupy a mountain, living a life of revelry?

But now, he guessed at a truth that filled him with fear and despair!

Which is, was Xiong Shiliu exposed?

It was said it had the potential to become a future Demon Emperor, and if it wanted to advance further in the future, the best approach was to stay low, lay dormant, and grow in peace until one could break through to Second Grade, then return to Heavenly Dao Mountain, attempting to break through to First Grade under the protection of Mad Tiger King.

At that time, as long as it successfully broke through to First Grade, the Human Race’s blockade of the West Wilderness Demon Race by Lu Wuchen would also come to an end.

This would be the correct, sensible approach!

But now——

“Xiong Shiliu must have been either killed or voluntarily surrendered.”

“Or it might not even need to surrender; just by showing itself openly and occupying a mountain, putting itself under the Human Race’s nose, is almost akin to a warlord announcing retirement during the Republic era!”

At this moment, Wang Wu truly understood thoroughly.

He dared not be so pessimistic nor entertain such thoughts.

But how to explain the current reality?

How to explain Yuan Bupu?

He had to imagine the worst possible intent, with the most distressing possibilities!

Especially with Centipede Ridge being so thoroughly infiltrated, why would the Human Race Cultivators need to make such a big fuss?

Is there a necessity for it?

“Perhaps, maybe Lu Wuchen couldn’t find me, so they resorted to the dumbest method!”

“Besides, wait!”

Wang Wu suddenly thought of a suspicion that chilled him to the bone!

The reason Xiong Shiliu and the others got exposed possibly was due to him?

The Human Race Cultivators were seeking him, ultimately not finding him but finding Xiong Shiliu instead?

This forced them to occupy a mountain openly, declaring no ambitions?

Of course, it could also be that, during their time in the Black Forest, they encountered exceptionally talented rising stars of the Human Race, got severely beaten down, and became utterly disheartened?

But no matter what, Xiong Shiliu should have already lost!

Thinking to this point, Wang Wu realized he was facing the greatest crisis since his transmigration.

And his opponent was not only the Celestial Realm Great Cultivator Lu Wuchen but also the terrifying production force of the Human Race Cultivation Realm!

He previously thought it was unlikely the Human Race would pay such a high price to hunt him down relentlessly over time!

That was truly him being narrow-minded.

Because he didn’t represent just himself, but also his great-grandfather, one of the Nine Great Heroes of the Wilderness, the erstwhile West Wilderness Demon Emperor!

Just as terrifying as that Old Bear used to be, today, Lu Wuchen would employ the mightiest means, the most abundant resources, and the maximum manpower to suppress him!

Maybe even the battlefield at Great Snow Mountain would pause because of him!

Who knows how many human cultivators are being dispatched, setting Centipede Ridge as the boundary, and laying down a Heaven and Earth Net. A five-thousand-mile radius means nothing!

A hundred-year siege means nothing!

Even if it means searching every inch of land.

Even if it takes five hundred years!

Even if it consumes endless resources.

As long as Wang Wu can be killed! As long as the bloodline of the Barbaric Ancient Bear can be thoroughly severed.

Then it’s all worth it!

Truly!

At this moment, Wang Wu truly attained Great Enlightenment.

He fully realized the severity of the issue.

It’s quite possible that right now, there’s a large group of seasoned human cultivators starting from a certain corner, searching for him down to thirty thousand feet deep.

Hiding any deeper is useless!

In front of a specialized, large Insight Array, his chances of being discovered are extremely high.

“So what now?”

Wang Wu couldn’t help but panic inside; it was real panic!

However, he still tried to calm himself down. His greatest advantage now was that he had acquired the bloodline inheritance of the Bear Demon Emperor.

This not only made him realize the gravity of the situation but also further increased the ceiling of his Stealth Talent.

But, can a 17+2.2+2=21.2 Passive Concealment Level truly allow him to pass silently through the arrays on that mountain?

As everyone knows, in order to close the door and catch the dog, the door must be sturdy enough first.

And in the past six years, he has already missed the best opportunity to escape.

In six years, Lu Wuchen has had enough time to order massive human cultivators to lay a true Heaven and Earth Net around Centipede Ridge!

Does he intend to rely on his Talent to challenge the human race’s cultivation productivity?

How is this different from Don Quixote challenging windmills?

“No, I still have my advantage!”

Wang Wu suddenly raised his head, and his advantage was his Level 12 Spiritual Talent!

This might even be the true key to breaking the game this time.

Because, when combined with Danger Perception, Spiritual Talent can sense the operation and changes in Spiritual Qi more subtly, carefully, comprehensively, and sensitively.

“A five-thousand-mile area! Even with six years to deploy, it’s still impossible to cover every point, especially since not all Interception Arrays can be seamlessly integrated.”

“As long as they can’t be completely unified and linked, there will inevitably be gaps between the arrays!”

“And this is my opportunity!”

“But I must speed up because the human cultivators on the other side may be working overtime to build as well.”

“Once all the arrays are completely integrated, I’ll be finished!”

Thinking of this, Wang Wu no longer hesitated, clenching his teeth, and instead rushed toward the mountains ahead.

Even though this could illuminate him with the Reconnaissance Array, as long as he closes the distance, his Danger Perception plus Spiritual Talent can better sense the subtle changes in Spiritual Qi.

At this moment, Wang Wu did not hesitate to activate two Concealing Demon Pills, raising his Stealth Level to 21.2.

He was also ready to activate the Spiritual Energy Light Membrane at any time.

This time, the importance of mastering the Spiritual Energy Light Membrane became evident.

Even a Basic Invisibility Technique can cause even the top-grade Reconnaissance Array to stumble in this pitch-black night!

In short, it genuinely complements Wang Wu’s Passive Concealment exceptionally well.

Wherever the Spiritual Energy Light Membrane failed or was countered, his Passive Concealment instead could play a significant role.

The weaknesses of Passive Concealment could be perfectly compensated by the Spiritual Energy Light Membrane.

As Wang Wu gradually approached, his Danger Perception and Spiritual Talent capturing the changes in Spiritual Qi indeed became clearer, more delicate, precise, and real.

Previously, it felt like layers of Spiritual Mist changing endlessly.

Now, it had become clear enough to see strands of threads intertwining and intertwining, seemingly chaotic, but in fact, they seemed to follow another mysterious pattern.

Indeed, there’s a way!

Wang Wu was secretly delighted, but the next second, a powerful, concentrated beam of Spiritual Qi randomly shot over!

This was equivalent to a high-power, very long-wave radar, shooting far and fast, hitting hard and fast, throwing punches wildly, as long as it scanned over, regardless of how high the Concealment Level was, it would always leave some trace.

Because this kind of scanning can break the concealing effect.

In short, it’s like rogue firepower reconnaissance.

If Wang Wu relied solely on his Passive Concealment, he would truly be passive.

However, at this moment, the Spiritual Energy Light Membrane he had prepared in advance worked instantaneously, perfectly neutralizing this random high-power scanning.

Admittedly, in a while, the human race might deploy Arrays specifically capturing secondary reflected Spiritual Qi fluctuations nearby.

But that would indeed require more time.

Anyway, right now, Wang Wu’s Spiritual Talent plus Danger Perception hadn’t found such an array.

A few minutes later, as Wang Wu continued to approach, the changes in Spiritual Qi he captured became more precise, but the number of times he was scanned also continued to increase.

Yet each time, he neutralized it with the Spiritual Energy Light Membrane, which was genuinely useful.
