Chapter 1207: Sudden Appearance of Strong Apostles
If the Water Demon Support Willow had enough Marsh Crocodiles to feed on, it would continue to grow and eventually be able to build a construct for the human-form Marsh Crocodiles to live in.
Wendy’s Favored Believer had opened the path to the rest of Lin Yuan’s journey in the marsh world.
Two mighty waves of energy fluctuations hit him before Lin Yuan could swim back to the surface.
The unprepared Lin Yuan choked and swallowed two mouthfuls of water.
The water did not taste strange but had the faint taste of mud and flesh-eating bacteria. It was not detrimental to humans.

Instead, it was actually rather nutritious. It was healthier to drink the marsh water than mountain spring water.
However, when Lin Yuan remembered the blood that had contaminated the water not long ago, he could not help but feel bile rise up his throat.
But before he could think any further, he sensed two waves of concentrated faith aura.
Lin Yuan inhaled sharply.
Just as Lin Yuan was climbing out of the water, another intense wave of faith power hit him. This wave was much stronger than the previous ones, and it was as though the source of the wave flower fluctuations was coming closer.
It was almost as though two Apostles were swimming toward him while fighting.
A thunderous bellow also accompanied the third wave of faith power. “White Speak! You’re the one who brought your son to my territory. Why would I lay a hand on him?”

The woman’s voice was sharp and shrill, but Lin Yuan could discern a tinge of anxiousness and fear. Clearly, the woman was no match for White Speak.
An arrogant male voice soon followed. “Scorpion Red, my son was right there. But I can’t see him anymore. Even if you didn’t send anyone to touch my son, it should be you who takes responsibility when the son of one of the lifeforms that live in your territory goes missing!”

Another powerful wave of energy crashed through the marsh.
By this time, Lin Yuan was already back on land.
The Kill Food Sky Butterfly had arrived at the edge of the marsh when it sensed the first wave of energy.
It said anxiously, “Lin Yuan, this energy fluctuation is clearly beyond Creation Breed. We can’t stay in this territory!”
The Kill Food Sky Butterfly’s expression was solemn, and it completely disregarded the fact that they were not alone.
Lin Yuan was Purple Afterglow’s contractor. If Lin Yuan died, Purple Afterglow would soon follow. Even if it cost the Kill Food Sky Butterfly its life, it would protect Lin Yuan’s life.
The energy fluctuations were much stronger than the Kill Food Sky Butterfly.
Although the Kill Food Sky Butterfly had one of the three most elite bloodlines of butterfly-species feys, it had only recently evolved to Creation Breed.
Due to its unhealed injury, it could not even reach Sovereign grade.
It knew that it was powerless against this threat.
Lin Yuan gnashed his teeth as the gears in his head started to turn.
While Lin Yuan was thinking, all the Medusa Snake Demons’ faces fell. Amongst all the Medusa Snake Demons, Scale Concubine had been with Lin Yuan for the longest.
The other Medusa Snake Demons had only been at the territory for a few days, and this was the first time they were meeting.
Their time at the territory was the happiest they had ever been while living in the dangerous marsh world. They did not have to worry about lacking food, and they could even build a beautiful structure if they wanted,
Moreover, there were two adolescent Apostles in the territory. One of the Apostles had even accepted some of them as believers and Favored Believers.
But so soon after, they felt a sense of belonging to this place. It was going to be destroyed.
The Medusa Snake Demons looked at Lin Yuan with hope and silently pleaded for him to take them with him when he escaped.
After thinking for a moment, a determined look came over Lin Yuan’s face.
He raised his hand and summoned Liu Yanshan.
The Invisible Demon also solidified its body and stood resolutely next to Lin Yuan as it looked toward the direction where the waves of faith power were coming from.
The waves of faith power shocked the Invisible Demon.
The Invisible Demon did not encourage Lin Yuan to flee. Instead, it said frankly, “Lord Dictator, the source is too far away for me to sense how strong the entity is. However, one of the Apostle’s faith power is at least below-average level.”
The Invisible Demon’s words made Lin Yuan aware that one of the approaching Apostles had unlocked its source sacred body.
Another wave of energy fluctuation more powerful than that of a Creation Breed fey was released. This indicated that the Apostle was at least Class 12.
Morbius’ grade was not high enough for Lin Yuan to use True Data to check on lifeforms above Creation Breed.
As such, Lin Yuan did not use True Data to check on the approaching Apostles.
After he tried to check on the feys that pulled the Moon Empress’ fey carriage, Lin Yuan discovered that targets beyond the grade that Morbius could check on would sense that they were being checked on if Lin Yuan persisted with using True Data.
Nonetheless, Lin Yuan had no intention of running.
He had laid the foundation for his plans in the marsh world.
The collaboration of the three Apostles would be able to form a perfect system.
If he ran now, all his efforts would have been for naught, and Endless Summer’s Barren River Orchid Bud would be damaged.
Endless Summer was not in the marsh world. But even if it were, it would not be able to retract the Barren River Orchid Bud fast enough to save it.
Even if Lin Yuan wanted to flee with all the lifeforms, the Jeweled Cave Golden Toad did not have enough space to take all of them, and he would have no choice but to reveal the existence of the Spirit Lock spatial zone.
He might be able to do it if he abandoned the 35 Spirit Craftsmen.
Lin Yuan touched the Extreme Token on his chest and calmed himself.
He said to the Kill Food Sky Butterfly, “Kill Food Sky Butterfly, lead the Medusa Snake Demons, Rising Lizard, Wendy, and the White Evil Marsh Crocodile toward the inner area of the territory. I’ll stay here with the Invisible Demon.”
At that moment, he realized the White Evil Marsh Crocodile had disappeared.
