The Great Wild God - Chapter 119

Chapter 119 Cat Catches Mouse
(It’s all an occupational disease. Today, my back hurts all day. It’s like a thorn in my flesh-the rules of the game of “cat and mouse” are set by Supreme Elder Qing Yangzi. Everyone has to show some face to Qing Yangzi.

Since Su Qingfeng, Su Lingyin, and the others all believed that he was no match for Lou Shiyi and that he should do everything in his power to avoid Lou Shiyi’s pursuit in the next three months, and Su Qingfeng even gave him the Cloud Evasion Technique, Chen Xun could never cause any unhappiness with Su Qingfeng, Su Lingyin, and the others.

This way, Chen Xun wouldn’t be able to openly enter the Wilderness with Brother Tie Xintong, Zhou Zhi, Zuoqiu, Gu Jianfeng, and the others, and fight with Lou Shiyi and the other disciples of Ghost Faction, Ming Dao and Ming Jian.

However, Lou Yiyi couldn’t let it go easily. After three months, she would clear up her past grudges and shake hands with him. There was vengeance, vengeance, vengeance. Everything had to wait until they entered the wilderness.

Chen Xun brought Ah Qing into the wilderness two days earlier.

With the Black Leopard’s lifespan of three to five hundred years, Ah Qing was still a cub, but it was time to learn how to hunt.

Chen Xun brought Ah Qing with him this time, thinking that since he had died in battle, it was time for Ah Qing to return to the Wilderness.

Chen Xun squatted on the top of a three to five hundred meter tall stone ridge, and the heavens and earth were plain white.

Although it could not be compared to the once-a-decade cold wave, the lake wasteland was frozen in the coldest season of the year.

Large areas of dense hilly forests were covered in snow.

His field of vision was blocked by the boundless snowstorm. No matter how strong Chen Xun’s eyesight was, he couldn’t see very far. He took out the Soul Chasing Seal, and his Spiritual Sense suddenly enlarged through it. The movements within twenty li of Shi Ling were within his grasp.

The disciples of the two sects would not officially enter the wasteland until two days later. However, from time to time, three or five rogue cultivators would pass by on both sides of the stone ridge and trek towards the northern Jade Pillar Peak.

In such a cold season, the number of prey around Jade Pillar Peak had decreased. Tens of thousands of green wolves had to expand their hunting range in order to survive the bitter winter.

Rogue cultivators all hoped that they would be able to encounter a single Green Wolf or a small-scale pack of wolves and reap a harvest in advance.

Blue Wolf could barely be considered a wild mutant. The news from Mystical Frost Sect was unknown. The Azure Water College offered ten talisman coins for each Blue Wolf’s skull.

As long as he hunted for the Green Wolf, he could exchange his skull for the Profound Armament Treasure Armor and Secret Art Pills that he didn’t dare to imagine in the past.

Apart from the skull, the green wolf’s flesh and blood could strengthen one’s qi and blood. Its muscles, bones, and fur were all materials for refining weapons and armor. Its organs and blood could also be used to refine spirit pills. It could be said that its entire body was a treasure.

If he could kill a giant golden wolf, then the harvest would be even greater.

The rogue cultivators who set out ahead of schedule were all filled with confidence. They thought that after this bitter winter, they would be able to earn a lot of money, and they would be able to cultivate for the next few years.

Chen Xun wasn’t in a hurry to reach Jade Pillar Peak, so he found a cliff cave in the stone ridge to hide and cultivate the Cloud Escape Technique.

After nightfall, Yue Zhao Cang Ling heard several swan roars coming from the depths of the forest.

Chen Xun wasn’t in a hurry to reveal himself. He waited until Zong Ya, Gu Jianfeng, Tie Xintong, Zhou Zhi, and the others climbed up from the stone cave in the north before jumping down from the cave and asking, “How was your journey?”

Gu Jianfeng smiled and said, “There are two people who are blind. They are both called Big Brother Tie. Big Brother Zhou has taught us a lesson.” “We’re just afraid that we’ll miss out on the fork of the road with you.”

Although hundreds of rogue cultivators had entered the Lake Wasteland in the past two to three years, they were extremely vigilant and did not communicate much with each other.

Up to today, the nine races of the Northern Mountain hadn’t even marked out the terrain of the wilderness south of Yuzhu Peak.

Chen Xun was also afraid that Zong Ya and the others would take a turn.

It would be difficult for Chen Xun to reunite with Zong Ya and the others if he wanted to avoid Lou Yiyi’s pursuit after entering the Jade Pillar Peak competition area.

This time, thousands of rogue cultivators gathered at Tianma Lake, and the nine races of the Northern Mountains didn’t need to send people into the wilderness to obtain great benefits. Therefore, apart from Gu Jianfeng, Zong Ya, and Gu Yuan, no other disciples of the nine races of the Northern Mountain had entered the Wilderness, and Zuoqiu had stayed in the Northern Mountain City.

“It’s said that the challenge is between you and Lou Shiyi, but there are dozens of late Greensun Realm disciples that Ghost Faction has entered the Wilderness this time. It seems like they won’t let it go!” Gu Jianfeng frowned and told him what had happened in Beishan City a day or two after Chen Xun left.

Chen Xun nodded. He was not surprised by this and asked, “Is there any news about Lou Shiyi?”

The Gui Xi Tribe would not go against Qing Yangzi’s will. On the surface, they would not let Lou Yiyi lead dozens of disciples to surround and kill him. However, it would be extremely difficult for the Gui Xi Tribe to send out so many disciples and sneak into other loose cultivators to send messages to Lou Yiyi. He wanted to hide within a thousand kilometers of Jade Pillar Peak.

Therefore, he also needed the help of Gu Jianfeng and Zong Ya in this cat-mouse chase, so that he wouldn’t be completely passive.

“I heard from Qianlan that Lou Shiyi entered the Wilderness long ago and did not act with the other disciples of the Academy. Now, no one knows his whereabouts,” Gu Jianfeng said. “The spirit birds in front of Qing Yangzi did not follow Lou Shiyi into the Wilderness. I heard people in the Academy say that Lou Shiyi will tame a spirit bird as a mount when he enters the Wilderness this time …”

Jade Pillar Peak’s radius of a thousand kilometers didn’t sound too big, but the person hiding within was as small as a grain of sand.

Lou Yiyi had yet to enter the Reincarnation Realm, so even if Qing Yangzi had given him a few magical artifacts, finding Chen Xun in the mountains of the Thousand Miles Forest would not be an easy task.

If Lou Yiyi had a spirit bird riding on it, coupled with nearly a hundred disciples of Ghost Xi cooperating in the search on the ground, it would be difficult for Chen Xun to hide it completely within three months.

Qing Yangzi didn’t directly give Lou Shiyi a spirit bird. Apart from Qing Yangzi needing some face, Qing Yangzi could also treat this battle as a trial against Lou Shiyi.

Chen Xun smiled and said, “Three months is still a long time. Lou Shiyi wants to capture and tame a spirit bird first and then chase after me. It seems like we still have a few days to live comfortably.”

‘”Although the Academy has agreed that you and Lou Shiyi cannot leave the Jade Pillar Peak for a thousand kilometers, it is different from the trial of the newly promoted disciples last time. You don’t have any signs on you. If you really want to go out of the agreed area and hide, how would the Academy know?” Tie Xinmei asked.

“I am a guest of the Su Wu Commandant’s Manor. Before I left, I handed over the guest’s seal,” Chen Xun said. “I refined the guest’s seal with a drop of blood. It contains a strand of my divine soul aura. The Academy should have an extremely powerful magical artifact that can sense the location of me and the other Academy disciples within a radius of a thousand kilometers.”

Even the Soul Pursuing Seal could amplify one’s spiritual sense and sense a weak aura twenty kilometers away. The Su Clan had been established in the Azure Water Clan for a thousand years. Who knew how powerful a magical artifact they held in their hands?

Tie Xinmei smacked her lips. Based on the wisp of remnant soul aura attached to the guest imprint, she could track the location thousands of kilometers away. How powerful was this magical artifact?

But thinking about how powerful the Su Clan was, Tie Xinmei knew that Chen Xun’s speculation was very likely the truth. She sighed with emotion, “Once you become a disciple or a guest minister of the Academy, wouldn’t it be impossible for you to leave the Academy for life?”

Tie Xintong was more familiar with the methods of the sect and said with a trace of disdain, “How could there be anything cheap in the world? It’s also possible that not only the Su Clan, but all the sects in the world should be like this. It’s impossible for these forces to invest a large amount of resources to nurture a disciple and tolerate his betrayal from the sect. Naturally, there will be some methods to restrain him.”

Chen Xun thought to himself, Rogue Cultivator Guest Qing might be a little better, but he only needed to attach the Divine Soul Qi to the Guest Qing Seal. As long as he retrieved or destroyed the Guest Qing Seal, he would be able to evade the pursuit. The restrictions on the disciples of the Academy were even stricter. Unless they were strong enough to resist the Su Clan alone, there should be no possibility of betraying the Academy.

Chen Xun didn’t think about things that were too far away. He said, “As long as no one tells Lou Shiyi where I am this time, it’s fine if they deliberately let the water go.”

When Chen Xun was about to let Zong Ya and the others enter the cave, his heart suddenly trembled. He took out the Soul Chasing Seal and saw that a few people had already touched the mountain depression to the north.

Chen Xun had just taken out his saber when Lou Yao and the Meng brothers rushed over from the mountain depression.

Tie Xintong took out her two halberds and glared at him angrily. “What do you mean?” She shouted.

No one told them about their meeting. The only possibility was that Lou Yao and the others followed behind them along the way.

“Don’t be so nervous,” Lou Yao stared at Chen Xun’s face and smiled sinisterly. “Ancestor Qingyang said that you are suitable for barbarians, so we won’t attack you. Gui Xi won’t surround you with Ling Wugu. However, we have to be on guard against you guys being disrespectful …”

“Do you mean to stay behind us forever?” Chen Xun asked with a serious face.

“If you have the ability to drive us away, everything is easy to say!” Lou Yao smiled coldly.

Whether it was Chen Xun attacking Lou Yao first or Zong Ya and the others attacking the disciples of the Academy, they would be the terrible consequences of their undertaking to tear up the agreement.

There were only thirty to fifty Purple-clothed disciples in the Academy. The Nine Tribulations Residual Sun Sword that Lou Yao had bestowed on him by Su Fuchen was extremely extraordinary among the Purple-clothed disciples of the Academy.

The Meng brothers were fine. Apart from the Meng brothers, the other four people who followed behind the line were all Xuanyi disciples of the Su Wu Commandant’s Manor, and their strength was only inferior to the purple-clothed disciples of the inner court.

Even if they didn’t care about the consequences of breaking the agreement and hitting Qing Yangzi in the face, Chen Xun and the others would still have a very limited chance of winning if they fought against Lou Yao.

When Zong Ya and the others entered the Wilderness, Chen Xun originally hoped that they would be able to transmit information and not fall into a complete passive position. He never expected that Ghost Faction would be sinister and let Lou Yao and the others follow him, wanting to cripple his move.

Lou Yao was still unable to order the Xuan Yi disciples of the Su Wu Lieutenant’s Manor to follow suit. It seemed that Su Quan also hoped that he would be killed by Lou Shiyi this time.

“Then why don’t you guys stay outside and guard?” Chen Xun said coldly. He first entered the cave with Zong Ya, Gu Jianfeng, Tie Xintong, Tie Xinmei, and Zhou Zhi.

Chen Xun then used a huge rock to seal the entrance of the cave, leaving Lou Yao and the others in the snowy and windy valley.
