As the Universe Turns - Chapter 342
Chapter 342 Chase After
“In that case, little friend is obsessed and will not regret it. He insists that the ten of us make a move on you …”
Xuan Yunzi’s eyes turned much colder. One of them was dressed in a blood-colored robe while the other was shrouded in a black mist. His murderous aura became even more intense.
The two of them were also extraordinary people. They similarly possessed a solid Dao Harmonization cultivation. The old man in blood clothes was called Xue Yanzi. He cultivated a bloodthirsty evil technique, and everyone was afraid. The person hiding in the black mist also cultivated an evil technique, called Ghost God Shocking.
The three of them had the highest cultivation among the Ten Fire Elders of Devil Flame Religion. Their identities were only inferior to Sect Leader Luan Shili. The other seven had slightly lower cultivation. Although they were both Ten Fire Elders, their current identities were clearly a bit lower.
Facing the pressure of the ten experts, a layer of cold sweat gradually condensed on Xiao Chen’s back. Previously, he had intended to stop and see how strong the other party’s cultivation was, but at this moment, there was only one thought in his heart: escape! He fled to an uninhabited place and comprehended the second level of the Undying Concept!
Thinking of this, the Ling Xian Step beneath his feet instantly spread out. In the blink of an eye, his figure disappeared into the forest. However, no matter how fast he was, how could he escape the divine senses of three Dao Harmonization Realm experts? Moreover, he still had the Life and Death Zhui Ming Talisman on him.
In an instant, the ten people behind all caught up like lightning. The curse incantation in Xiao Chen’s mouth made him float like a swift swallow. Anyone who encountered a mountain rock blocking his path would cross over in an instant.
The Ten Fire Elders saw that his cultivation was only at the late stage of Void Refinement, yet his speed was actually so fast. As such, they assumed that his possession of magic treasures would definitely not be an ordinary item. For a moment, everyone’s killing intent surged and they vowed to seize the treasures.
When it was dark, Xiao Chen was still fleeing. However, for some reason, a dark wind suddenly blew out from several kilometers around him. No matter how fast he moved, the dark wind still surrounded him. He was shocked. He turned around and saw that it was the person hiding in the black mist. He had lifted a flag and covered his head.
The ghost mist on the banner occasionally revealed some terrifying faces, and sometimes it was surrounded by ghosts. It howled like ten thousand ghosts. Obviously, it was an evil object refined from countless living souls. When it was dark, it would be able to display its maximum power.
As soon as the banner arrived, Xiao Chen’s entire body was enveloped by a dark wind. What was even more terrifying was that the ghost mist on the banner seemed to have instantly turned into an ancient evil ghost that opened its bloody mouth and devoured him.
In a hurry, his palm was lucky, and two Heart Execution Flames flew out. With a’chi ‘sound, the ghost that had turned into a mist immediately let out a shrill howl and retreated into the flag.
The expression of the ghosts and gods couldn’t help but change. This “Evil Ghost Banner” was refined from countless souls. It was unknown how many souls he would feed each year to feed the Evil Ghost in the banner. However, this Evil Ghost hadn’t appeared yet today, so how could the two fires of this junior be sent back?
“It must be some sort of magic treasure, chase!”
He did not believe that a young junior at the Void Refining Realm would have such great ability to repel the evil spirits in his banner. This was to determine that the other party must have used some formidable magic treasure to exclusively defeat his evil spirit banner.
“Young man, don’t run anymore!”
Another purple-clothed old man caught up. This purple-clothed old man’s name was Xiang San. Although he did not have a cultivation at the Void Refining Dao Combination Realm, his cultivation at the peak Void God Refining Realm could not be underestimated.
He stretched out his hand and a purple light shrouded his sleeve. He actually wanted to imprison Xiao Chen with his Nascent Soul. However, how could he have expected that Xiao Chen’s White Nascent Soul would not be imprisoned by any Nascent Soul Laws in the world?
Sure enough, once his Nascent Soul power was released, the purple light clearly shrouded Xiao Chen’s body, but in an instant, it was like a rock sinking into the sea, and his strength dissipated completely.
Just as he was startled, killing intent suddenly appeared in Xiao Chen’s eyes. He turned around and struck out with his palm. This palm was still the control of life and death within the remnant of the Book of Heaven. Under his control, the control of life and death was like countless strands. In an instant, it merged into Xiang San’s divine soul and took his life. Before he could react, his eyes had completely darkened and there was no trace of life left.
In order to prevent the nine people behind him from seeing the clues of controlling life and death, Xiao Chen executed the Life and Death Control, and at the same time, a Heart Execution Flame flew out from his palm, instantly burning Xiang San’s corpse to ashes. In the eyes of the nine people behind him, it was like Xiang San had died in a strange black profound flame, without even a chance to resist.
“Xiang San!”
Seeing that Xiang San was clearly on the verge of using Nascent Soul power to imprison this person, but he suddenly died from the other party’s strange fire, the few people behind him were all shocked. Before they could react, Xiao Chen had already used the darkness to cast his Instant Step Cosmos, and in an instant, he had already fled a thousand miles away.
“He escaped!”
The three Dao Harmonization Realm elders stopped at the same time. With their divine sense and the sensation of the Life and Death Zhui Ming Talisman, they naturally knew that the other party was already a thousand miles away. However, what kind of divine ability could allow a small Divine Refinement and Void Return Realm cultivator to instantly flee a thousand miles away? Could it be that the long lost immortal’s ability to “shrink to an inch”? Or was this person possessing some sort of powerful teleportation magic treasure?
“Be careful, this person may not be an ordinary Divine Refinement Realm junior …”
At this moment, the three of them finally became serious. At first, the three of them were only worried that the other party would risk their lives to destroy all the treasures. If that was the case, they would definitely be punished when they returned. But now, it was different. If the other party had escaped a thousand miles in an instant, it would still be reasonable. What about the death of Xiang San?
The rest of them couldn’t see it, but how could the three of them not see it? Xiang San did not die from the black profound fire. The purpose of the black profound fire was obviously to conceal his true killing methods. However, what kind of killing methods could cause Xiang San’s peak Void Return Realm cultivation to instantly die without even the ability to resist?
“Chase, we can’t let him escape the Cloud Kingdom!”
The three of them shared the same thoughts. No matter what, they had to capture this person this time, not only for those magic treasures, but also for the cultivation technique that this person possessed. Therefore, they could not allow him to escape the Cloud Kingdom. Otherwise, such a piece of beautiful jade would become the possession of the other sects of the Life and Death Alliance.
…
After a night of fleeing, Xiao Chen felt somewhat exhausted. Just as noon arrived this day, the powerful auras of three Dao Harmonization Realm elders came from behind a mountain peak he had just passed.
He hadn’t expected that these people would catch up so quickly. It wasn’t impossible for him to use the Instant Step Cosmos again at this moment. However, this way, his True Essence would be almost exhausted. If he were to be caught up again, it would be terrible.
Just as he was pondering, the nine people behind him had already chased after him. This time, the three Void Refining and Dao Harmonization Realm elders were determined to capture him alive. Xue Yanzi did not hesitate at all. He did not know what incantation he chanted and pointed at the sky. Blood mist instantly filled the area of several tens of kilometers, instantly imprisoning Xiao Chen.
“Shit …”
Xiao Chen smelled a pungent smell of blood. He immediately knew that being trapped within the restriction was not a Nascent Soul restriction, but some sort of magical restriction. It would not be easy for him to break through the restriction.
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh!”
Suddenly, a few sharp sword Qi slashed up from behind. Xiao Chen Ling Xian Step unleashed his Sword Qi and instantly dodged. However, he was trapped by this restriction. His eyes were covered in a mess of blood. He couldn’t see clearly from a distance of ten feet. Even his divine sense was blocked by the restriction. How could he escape this time?
If he also broke through to the Void Refining and Dao Harmonization Realm, killing the three Void Refining and Dao Harmonization Realm elders would be as easy as crushing an ant. As long as he broke through to the Void Refining and Dao Harmonization Realm, then unless he was a profound realm cultivator who comprehended the Heavenly Dao Concept, no matter how deep his cultivation was, he would be unable to resist controlling life and death in the Void Refining and Dao Harmonization Realm.
