As the Universe Turns - Chapter 403
Chapter 403 Again In The Abyss
Xiao Chen went to the cave and took out the stove to start refining medicine. Luo Die continued to eat with her hands on her back as usual. She obediently sat aside and watched without disturbing him.
It continued until late at night. A gust of cold wind blew in from outside, causing the fire to gently shake. Up until now, Xiao Chen had already failed more than ten times. Every time he lost a drop of Jadeite Blood, there were not many medicinal ingredients and Jadeite Blood left. Luo Die sat beside him, her brows furrowed. She knew very well how difficult it was to refine this medicine, so she did not dare to disturb him.
After an unknown period of time, the wind outside became colder and colder, causing the furnace fire to shake. Luo Die stood up and looked outside. The trees were blown to the side by the wind and kept shaking. It was like a precursor to a rainstorm in summer. She muttered, “Strange, why is the wind so strong tonight?”
“Huh?”
Previously, Xiao Chen had been concentrating on refining medicine. Now that he heard her say this, he seemed to have finally sensed a trace of abnormality. His expression immediately froze, “Not good … Let’s go!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he rolled up his hand and put everything on the ground into his sleeve. In an instant, he pulled Luo Die and flew out.
Almost at the same time, countless strands of sword Qi suddenly slashed towards them from afar. Sword shadows filled the sky, enveloping the two of them in an instant, and there was nowhere to escape.
Xiao Chen raised his palm and used his Great Freedom Palm Technique to control the sword Qi in front of him to slash to the left and right. After a “boom” sound, more than a dozen figures were chopped away from the trees and vegetation.
“Let’s go.”
Xiao Chen’s eyes were cold. Without hesitation, he immediately pulled Luo Die forward at top speed. Seeing this, more than ten people in front of him immediately blocked it. However, they were shocked to the point that they vomited blood and flew backwards by his Withered Wood Dragon’s Roar.
“This way …”
In her panic, Luo Die discovered a deep and strange path. She didn’t know where it led to, but she wanted to temporarily escape the pursuit of the Immortal Alliance.
Xiao Chen didn’t hesitate any longer. With a single palm strike, he pushed back the seven or eight figures that had caught up with him and immediately pulled Luo Die into the path.
The trees in front of him were towering, and the mountain peaks were one after another. In the cold and mournful night, it was extremely strange. It was unknown where they were going.
At this moment, four Profound Comprehension Realm elders rushed over. When they saw the disadvantaged disciple lying on the ground, the red-clothed elder was instantly enraged. He said angrily, “I didn’t say that when Senior Yun Ya arrives, why are you greedy for merit and rashly advancing? Why are you startling me?”
The disciples immediately knelt on the ground, trembling and not daring to make a sound. The red-clothed old man was still furious. A few people had died in the deep valley. If they didn’t catch this person, they wouldn’t be able to return home.
At this time, an old man dressed in Qingyi walked up to him and said, “Senior Brother, don’t be angry. Senior Yun Ya is almost here. That person can’t escape.”
“Mm …”
The red-clothed old man clenched his fingers tightly. He no longer looked at the group of useless disciples below. Instead, he looked in the direction where Xiao Chen had fled. Tonight, the moon was bright, but there seemed to be layers of strange mist enveloping that place. It was pitch black, and he was actually unable to see anything clearly.
“There seems to be something strange over there” The expressions of the four Profound Comprehension Realm elders became solemn at this moment.
…
Moreover, Xiao Chen and Luo Die had escaped for three days and three nights in a row. They had already arrived at an unknown place this night. However, when they saw a thick layer of fog suddenly rise up around them and the sky darkened, their vision became increasingly blurry. At this moment, a terrifying aura suddenly came from behind them. It was definitely not comparable to when Wuji Shangren chased the two of them.
“Shit …”
Luo Die’s expression instantly changed. It was as if her face had lost its color. Xiao Chen could naturally feel the terrifying aura. The cultivations of the people who came were definitely not lower than Prince Yun Tianzi’s. Ning Mei asked, “Who’s here?”
“It’s Yun Yazi … Yun Tianzi’s senior brother.”
Luo Die’s expression was stunned. She didn’t expect that this person would actually come out of seclusion for Yun Tianzi after a hundred years of seclusion and comprehension of the Central Profound Realm. However, was it really to avenge her junior apprentice-brother or something else?
“Hahahaha … brat, you can’t escape!”
Right at this moment, Xiao Chen suddenly heard Prince Yun Tianzi’s gloomy laughter. Xiao Chen couldn’t help but frown. He formed a seal with his hands and immediately activated the Soul Forbidden Technique.
“Hehe … it’s useless. With your little bit of cultivation, you won’t be able to erase this old man’s divine sense. Once Senior Brother Yunya arrives, you will undoubtedly die. Yang Gu, you destroyed my fleshly body. Today, I will use your fleshly body as compensation. As for your primordial spirit, I swear that I will make your life worse than death. Hahaha …”
“Shut up!”
Xiao Chen pointed between his eyebrows and saw a flash of blood that forcefully suppressed Prince Yun’s consciousness.
“What should we do now …”
The aura behind it was getting closer and closer, causing the dense fog nearby to churn. Luo Die’s face was getting paler and paler. Yun Yazi’s cultivation of more than 600 years was still above Yun Tianzi’s. Even if he hadn’t reached the Central Profound Realm, it was still extremely terrifying. It was definitely not something she and Xiao Chen could handle.
“Let’s go.”
Xiao Chen glanced at the back. Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately took Luo Die and flew into the thick fog ahead. Yun Yazi’s cultivation was slightly higher than Prince Yun Tianzi’s. The Golden Crow’s foot had been exhausted too much last time, so it would probably be difficult to use it again.
After escaping for about two hours, for some reason, the fog in front of them seemed to be getting thicker and thicker. Xiao Chen and Luo Die walked through the fog, unable to distinguish between the east and the west. At this moment, a terrifying divine sense suddenly came from behind them, causing their hearts to tremble and they almost suffocated.
“Shit …”
Luo Die’s face was deathly pale, and his heart pounded. Xiao Chen forcefully calmed down and immediately took her away. He had practically used Ling Xianbu to his limit, but no matter where he ran and how fast he was, the divine sense behind him was locked onto him.
“Little friend, there’s no need for you to escape anymore. Return Junior Brother Poverty Dao’s primordial spirit. Poverty Dao will naturally let you live.”
At last, Yun Yazi’s voice came from behind. Hearing this voice, Luo Die was even more shocked, “What should we do? He has caught up …”
“There’s no need to be afraid. This is a thousand li sound transmission. His true body is at least several hundred li away from us.”
Xiao Chen’s expression was calm. As soon as he finished speaking, he once again unleashed the Ling Immortal Steps and escaped in another direction with Luo Die. However, a mere several hundred kilometers away, wouldn’t it be an instant for a cultivator at the Lower Profound Realm?
Sure enough, before the two of them could escape a thousand li, Yun Yazi’s aura quickly approached and was already less than a hundred li away.
“Little friend, stay.”
As soon as his voice fell, Yun Yazi pinched his fingers and an invisible palm pierced through the clouds, as if it had appeared from the void. It instantly enveloped Xiao Chen and Luo Die.
This was clearly the divine ability of a Lower Profound Realm cultivator. Even if it was a hundred miles away, it was still difficult to escape. However, the moment his palm covered it, Xiao Chen desperately used his Instant Step Cosmos again, instantly disappearing from the spot with the Fallen Butterfly.
“Huh?”
Behind him, Yun Yazi couldn’t help but let out a slightly surprised voice. He thought to himself, “What kind of cultivation technique is it to be able to escape from his Dragon Trapping Hand?”
But very quickly, he chased after her again. When Luo Die saw the tall figure behind her, her expression immediately changed, “He caught up!”
“I know.”
Xiao Chen forced himself to calm down and looked around. Although the fog was thick, he recognized that this was the place where he had chased the Jade Snow Beast last time. Not far ahead was the strange God Devil Abyss!
