As the Universe Turns - Chapter 557
Chapter 557 Narrow Path
Outside the cave, there was a gloomy breeze. In the boundless night, there was something terrifying hidden. Qianyu Nichang held his breath and slowly walked to Xiao Chen’s side. He whispered, “You’re inside, I’m going out to take a look …” As he spoke, he quietly went outside.
“Wait …”
Xiao Chen frowned. He looked at her and said, “There is no one outside. Unlock my acupoints first!”
Qianyu Nichang stopped and turned his head slightly, seemingly hesitating. If he were to unlock his acupoints now, he would definitely leave. After thinking for a while, he finally ignored him and left alone. In a moment, he disappeared.
“Qianyu Nichang!”
Xiao Chen shouted twice outside, but there was no response. Only cold winds blew in from outside.
After a while, there was still no movement outside, and Qianyu Nichang did not know where he went. Xiao Chen thought for a moment, and when she came back, he would definitely not be able to leave. At this moment, he could only try to see if he could break through the acupoints with the Yin Yang Profound Technique that Senior Monster had taught him back then.
Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated. The incantation of the Nine Yin Nine Yang Profound Technique silently circulated in his heart, transforming into two strands of True Qi, one Yin and one Yang, and slowly flowing through his body.
However, Qianyu Nichang’s methods of sealing acupoints were also extremely powerful. For a moment and a half, it would not be easy to break through the acupoints.
After half an incense stick of time passed, white gas slowly emerged from his back, and cold sweat covered his forehead. In the end, two golden lights flashed on his chest, and with two “chi chi” sounds, he rushed to open the acupoints.
“Hu …”
Xiao Chen let out a long breath and slowly withdrew his cultivation. This Nine Yin Nine Yang Profound Technique was extremely mysterious. Back then, Xiao Cangtian had taught it to him. Qianyu Nichang never expected that there was such a divine technique on his body that could break through her restrictive methods.
At this moment, there was no one outside the cave. Only cold winds blew through the forest, making rustling sounds.
Taking advantage of the fact that Qianyu Nichang had not returned yet, Xiao Chen did not hesitate any longer. He barely managed to circulate his strength, and with a flick of his body, he flew off into the distance.
A hundred kilometers away, the stars and moons in the sky were dim, and the surroundings were silent. The more Yin Qi they displayed, the more dense it became.
Xiao Chen’s face was pale. His injuries hadn’t healed yet, so he couldn’t use so much strength. He only saw a small jade bottle appear in his palm. There was also the last Hundred Flowers Pill inside, which could help him recover from his injuries.
After consuming the Hundred Flowers Pill, Xiao Chen circulated his cultivation technique on the spot, causing the medicinal effects to spread throughout his body. After about an incense stick of time, his face finally regained some color. Taking advantage of the fact that Qianyu Nichang had yet to catch up, he once again unleashed his movement technique and headed out of the mountain range.
Three days passed like this. Three days later, Xiao Chen had already arrived at an unknown location. However, he thought that the barrier in the depths of the forest had already been opened a few days ago. Those people outside must have already swarmed in.
Previously, he could rest assured that Hua Weiyang would search for the secret treasure alone because those people outside could not enter. But now that the people outside had entered, he had to find Hua Weiyang as soon as possible. If her identity was discovered by those people, there would definitely be danger.
At dusk on this day, Xiao Chen arrived outside a valley. At first glance, he heard the sounds of fighting inside. His divine sense penetrated into the valley, only to see corpses everywhere. A middle-aged man in black was being surrounded and killed by more than twenty people.
Among the twenty odd people, one Old man Zi Yi was already a Soul Formation cultivator, and his attacks were extremely fierce. As for the black-clothed middle-aged man, he was actually Motian Sect of Xie Tianluo.
Obviously, those twenty plus people were from the Supreme Origin Dao Sect. However, Xiao Chen didn’t understand why they surrounded and killed Xie Tianluo here. However, seeing that both sides didn’t have the slightest leeway to attack and that their moves were aimed at taking the lives of the other party, this matter was not simple at all.
At this moment, he hid in the shadows and carefully observed with his divine sense, so as not to be detected by the other party.
After a while, Xie Tianluo was clearly at a disadvantage. Suddenly, he waved his sleeve and took out a magic treasure. The magic treasure suddenly covered him and turned into a black mist and escaped.
“Master, he’s escaped … Do you want to chase him?”
“Wait …”
Old man Zi Yi raised his hand and looked in the direction where Xie Tianluo had disappeared into the black mist. He wasn’t in a hurry to chase after him, but instead, he sent his divine sense nearby.
Outside the valley, Xiao Chen held his breath and concentrated. He tried his best to conceal his aura to prevent the old man’s divine sense from discovering it. After a while, the old man did not notice anything strange and left with his men.
After the other party left for a while, Xiao Chen slowly appeared from the shadows and stared in the direction where the group of people had left. He thought to himself, “What are the plans of the Supreme Origin Dao Sect?”
However, at this moment, he couldn’t care less. He had to find Wei Yang as soon as possible. Just as he was about to leave, a sword light suddenly flew over from afar.
The sword light arrived at once, arriving at an extremely fast speed, stopping him in an instant.
White feathers flew in the air, and a woman who looked like a fairy from the Heavenly Palace slowly descended. It was none other than Qianyu Ni Shang.
“Senior Brother left without saying goodbye that night, but it made it easier for me to find him.”
Qianyu Ni Shang’s voice was faint. As she spoke, she landed lightly on a branch.
Xiao Chen said, “What, you still want to stop me? Forget it, my injuries haven’t healed yet. Your strength hasn’t recovered yet. Do you want to fight again today?”
The two of them looked at each other. Suddenly, Qianyu Ni Shang jumped down from the tree. With a flash of sword light, the two of them collided again.
However, Xiao Chen was injured at this moment, and Qianyu Nichang had exhausted too much that day in order to heal his injuries. He still hadn’t recovered yet, so the fight between the two of them wasn’t as intense as that day. Instead, it was as if they were breathing heavily. There was still room for them to move with each move.
After fighting for a while, a commotion came from outside the valley. At this moment, a large number of people suddenly flew over from afar, all of them from Tai Shi Dao Sect.
Leading the group were two old men. One of them was the Old man Zi Yi who had just left. The other was the red-clothed old man who was in the valley that day. There were about forty to fifty disciples behind him.
“Master … there she is!”
After seeing Qianyu Nichang, two disciples in Tai Shi Dao Sect immediately cried out in alarm. That day, in the valley, Qianyu Nichang injured the white-clothed man. They could clearly see her from behind. At this moment, they naturally recognized her with a single glance.
“Qianyu Nichang …”
When he saw the person who had seriously injured his disciple, Old man Zi Yi’s eyes instantly turned red. A murderous aura covered his body, and his expression became extremely terrifying.
“Senior Brother … Wait, that person is …”
The red-clothed old man’s gaze instantly focused on Xiao Chen. He suddenly remembered the divine sense that had caused him a heavy pressure in the valley that day. Could this young man in front of him be …
At this moment, the people who saw Tai Shi Dao Sect suddenly came. Inside the valley, Xiao Chen and Qianyu Nichang also stopped. However, at this moment, several figures suddenly flew over from the other side. They were Xia Guyun, Poria, and the others.
