As the Universe Turns - Chapter 472
Chapter 472 Fugitive
When he returned to the outside world, it was already completely dark. However, tonight, the moon was bright, and the mountains were still filled with a gloomy atmosphere. However, Xiao Chen had just emerged from the Twelve-fingered Heart Demon. Even though he was currently in the forbidden area of Tomb of Gods and Demons, could there be anything more terrifying than the Twelve-fingered Heart Demon nearby?
Moreover, his cultivation had increased dramatically. Therefore, he did not feel any fear at this moment. He only thought that a month had passed since everyone had dispersed. He had to find Luo Die as soon as possible. He knew that Pili Zidian would definitely kill Luo Die.
Previously, when he was with the twelve-fingered Heart Demon, he sat on a piece of armor. Because he had entered a mysterious realm without himself, he had indeed gradually forgotten about Luo Die and the others. However, now that he had come out of the illusion, his memories had been completely restored to before he entered. Instead, he had been inside for sixty years. At this moment, he felt as if he had just been dreaming.
The night was dark. Xiao Chen walked forward to the edge of a cliff and looked into the distance. His divine sense extended a hundred miles away. Now that his cultivation had greatly increased, his divine sense had naturally sharpened by countless times.
…
At this moment, in a mountain range, one could only see a figure flying like flying. He didn’t even care about the restrictions here, he just ran away. Obviously, this person was being chased by someone, and he was already in a panic.
The moonlight gradually became clear. It turned out to be a woman dressed in a light purple robe. However, looking at her sweating and raining down, her clothes were already soaked. She was none other than Luo Die.
“Shit …”
As she ran, she did not know where she had run to, but there seemed to be no way to go. There was a terrifying restriction aura faintly penetrating from there. If she forcefully broke through, she might fall into some dangerous places and alert some ancient exotic beasts.
“What should we do …”
Luo Die was already panicking and her face was extremely pale. If Xiao Chen was by her side at this moment, she would definitely not be in such a panic, but right now, she was the only one left. How could she escape the pursuit of that person?
If not for the two Life and Death Blood Talismans that Xiao Chen had given her in Yang Valley and the three Ghost Talismans that he had given her afterwards, she might have died in that person’s hands by now.
Right now, she only had the last two Ghost Talismans in her hand. Once she used them up, she could only wait for death. Unless she found the Ghost Daoist and the others, she would not be able to flip through the boundless mountains. The transmission jade letter had also failed. How could she find the Ghost Daoist and the others?
“Fiendish fiendish fiendish fiendish!”
At this moment, a gust of dark wind suddenly penetrated from behind her. Luo Die was suddenly shocked. Just as she was about to flee, a figure behind her caught up in an instant.
Luo Die’s expression changed drastically. Without hesitation, she condensed her finger and a black ghost talisman flew out. Ghosts roared endlessly in all directions. The talisman grew larger and larger in mid-air, and it seemed to have the power to transform into a black mist that enveloped that person.
“Boom!”
With a loud explosion, the vegetation, flowers, and stones within the radius of the person instantly turned into powder. The person was also trapped in a black mist, unable to get out. Taking advantage of this moment, Luo Die unleashed her divine magic and disappeared into the vast night.
After a long time, the power of the Ghost Talisman dissipated, and the black mist gradually dispersed. Under the moonlight, that person was Pili Zidian.
His eyes were fierce as he looked in the direction Luo Die had escaped from. His fingers clicked and he said in a deep voice, “Ghost Daoist, Ghost Daoist, you really can cause trouble for me. You should have arrived long ago, right? Haha … But I want to see how many talismans you’ve given them!” As soon as he finished speaking, his body moved and instantly disappeared.
…
By midnight, the night was even colder. Luo Die had fled all the way to an unknown location. Over the past half a month, she had been running away in these mountains. Occasionally, she would have fallen into danger. If not for her illusion, she would have died under the claws of those exotic beasts even if she hadn’t died at Pili Zidian’s hands. Or perhaps, she would have been devoured by Gas of Gods and Demons here.
She did not have Xiao Chen’s abilities. She was not unafraid of Gas of Gods and Demons. She could not use Gas of Gods and Demons to deal with Pili Zidian, nor could she use the Death Qi to conceal her aura and let those Death Ghost Eyes deal with Pili Zidian. She could only use illusions to constantly escape and search for others.
I don’t know where this place is anymore, but a precipice suddenly appeared in front of me. Luo Die’s heart was shocked. This time, there is no way to escape, what should I do …
At this moment, Pili Zidian caught up with him again. Luo Die was so frightened that his face turned pale. He waved his hand and the last ghost talisman flew out. It turned into a black mist and enveloped Pili Zidian.
However, just as she was about to flee, a figure behind her pushed her back. That person was actually Pili Zidian.
“You …”
Luo Die was suddenly shocked and looked at the black mist not far away. It turned out that there was only an avatar of Pili Zidian inside.
“What? Are there no more talismans …”
Pili Zidian smiled gloomily and slowly approached her.
Luo Die panicked. Her heart pounced and she continued to retreat. However, she didn’t take a few steps back when she suddenly felt a chill on her back. She had already retreated onto the stone wall, and there was no way to retreat anymore.
“You … what do you want?”
Luo Die’s face was deathly pale, and even her voice trembled. She clearly understood why Pili Zidian had to kill her, because Pili Zidian knew her identity in the Immortal Alliance, and Pili Zidian was the mole of the Immortal Alliance! There was only one of the two.
“You and that brat are very smart, but … unfortunately, none of you will be able to escape this time.”
Pili Zidian smiled sinisterly as he walked closer and closer. Luo Die held his breath and looked at him in horror. His cold body couldn’t help but tremble slightly.
The more she acted like this, the more Pili Zidian refused to move his gaze away from her. He smiled coldly, “What? Are you still counting on that kid to save you? To tell you the truth …”
At this point, his gaze suddenly turned cold and he said gloomily, “If it weren’t for the Ghost Daoist obstruction, I would have crushed that brat into pieces long ago …”
Hearing this, Luo Die felt a chill run down her spine. Her hands were tightly clutching the rock behind her, and she didn’t dare to move a single bit.
Pili Zidian walked in front of her and suddenly smiled sinisterly, “But it’s a pity that I killed you just like that …” At the end of his sentence, his gaze gradually turned to look at her soaked body.
Being stared at by him with such malicious intentions, Luo Die was immediately shocked, “You … what do you want to do?”
“What are you doing?”
Pili Zidian smiled sinisterly. “Three hundred years ago, I wanted Ji Wuyan and I to cultivate the Great Art of Yin-Yang Harmony. We only need to succeed to break through Tomb of Gods and Demons’s restrictions. But who knows, she hates me. What kind of good thing is she? She is nothing more than a crippled flower defeating a willow …”
