The person is gone.
Not invisible.
All known invisibility techniques can't escape divine awareness.
And in the blink of an eye, a lively figure vanished without a trace right before his eyes.
How strange, did he encounter a ghost!
Even if he did encounter a ghost, he should have sensed it with his divine awareness.
Who can explain where that guy went?
Wujian landed on his feet and hurriedly searched around, but after a moment, he found nothing. He walked back to where Bai Xian had disappeared and spat in anger.
Ah, spit!
This was the first time he had such a strong urge to kill, but before he could satisfy his desire, something strange happened, and it was his own fault for feeling frustrated!
A bunch of disciples from the Immortal Sect, either scheming against each other or being treacherous and vicious, always harming others for their own benefit, treating life as a game.
Do they really think I'm easy to bully?
The first time I couldn't win, I endured it; the second time I could win, I still endured it; but if it keeps happening, I'll really become a fool!
Want to play tricks on me?
I've been reading military strategy since I was a child and never lose when it comes to scheming.
Want to compare poetry and talent?
Don't make me laugh, I'm a teacher by profession, this is my bread and butter.
Want to compare cultivation?
I may not be a cultivator, but I have a righteous spirit that sweeps away evil. It's just that my conscience hasn't been lost, and I always have compassion, so I treat others as I would treat myself and do good for heaven and earth!
However, today I really want to kill!
Wujian was furious and helpless, but suddenly his expression changed, and he rushed up into the sky. But he was still a step too late, a sword light suddenly burst out from the ground, like a ghost, completely unexpected.
"Boom—"
He hadn't risen more than a few dozen feet when he was struck by a sword. The explosion shattered his protective spiritual energy. Unable to withstand it, he was thrown back into the air. In a panic, he didn't show weakness and swung his magic sword down in anger.
Another "Boom," and a flash of light.
A figure suddenly emerged from the ground and then sank back down. The power of the magic sword was undiminished, plowing a several-zhang-long, over-a-foot-deep trench in the ground.
At this moment, Wujian did two somersaults in mid-air and staggered to the ground. He hadn't even stood up when he fell to the ground with a "thud." His shoes were shattered, his bare feet were bruised and bloody, and his clothes and undergarments were torn, making him look quite wretched. He had just suffered a loss and didn't dare to be careless, so he jumped up quickly, gritting his teeth and groaning in pain.
If not for his strong bones, his feet would have been crippled. Even with a stroke of luck, the pain was almost unbearable!
That damned Bai Xian, he actually became a mole.
"Come out!"
Wujian, unable to contain his anger, swung his magic sword wildly. "Ah... I look down on all of you Immortal Sect disciples, who claim to be cultivators but are actually scoundrels! I don't harm others unless they harm me, but if they do, I'll make the sky fall and the earth crack! Come out..."
In the valley, someone was going crazy.
The hard ground was split by the magic sword, sending stones flying, and the "bang, bang" sounds echoed continuously. He continued to search frantically, but his divine awareness couldn't penetrate the ground, and he still couldn't find Bai Xian. No matter how much he roared, it was all in vain.
Wujian raged for a moment and had to stop, limping.
There was no way!
Although he was different from before, he still couldn't fly or burrow into the ground. If he wanted to survive in the world of immortals, he would have to be more careful in the future.
Sigh, those who suffer often remain, let it be for now...
Just then, a figure suddenly appeared dozens of feet away, staggering and spitting out a mouthful of blood, glancing back in panic, and then running away. Who else could it be but Bai Xian? He must have run out of power while hiding underground and was forced to show himself, but he didn't dare to stay and fled along the path he came.
Wujian was about to give up when his eyes lit up, and he shouted, "Stop..."
No one stopped, and they ran even faster!
Wujian jumped up to chase, wincing in pain, remembering his bare feet and the unbearable pain. But he couldn't care less, gritting his teeth and chasing after.
I've always been the one being chased, but today it's my turn to chase.
It's not easy, let me see how I can eliminate evil and protect the righteous!
And I don't protect the way of immortals or humans, only the righteous path of the world!
While chasing, Wujian glanced at his left hand, where the blackened Xuanjin lay quietly in the Kuibone ring. A young dragon was still sleeping soundly.
Sigh, a child without a mother...
In a moment, the cliff opening was in sight. Bai Xian ran very fast, his figure flashing a few times before disappearing.
Wujian followed closely, not letting up. In a breath, he returned to the canyon he had come from.
A figure was gradually disappearing a hundred feet away.
Hmm, I thought only I was good at running, but it turns out anyone can be good at it when it comes to escaping!
Wujian aimed and cast a spell, his figure flashing, and he was already dozens of feet away. Another flash, and he was right behind Bai Xian.
The Flash Escape Technique, truly remarkable!
Without a word, he extended his right arm, the sword light flickering, and then raised both hands, a black sword light roaring down.
Bai Xian had already sensed it, but he didn't turn back or block it. Instead, he suddenly lunged forward, disappearing into the ground. Then stones shattered, dust flew, and a roar echoed, "Hey! Rat, don't run, let's fight three hundred rounds!"
The person seemed to forget his own panic when he was running, now acting with righteous indignation. However, with his bare feet and half-torn clothes, he looked more ridiculous than intimidating.
"Bang, bang, bang—"
Seeing Bai Xian use the same trick again, Wujian became even more furious. After roaring, he pointed his arm, and the magic sword flew out, piercing the hard ground. The ground shook, stones flew, and craters exploded, but there was no sign of his opponent.
Plowing the ground with a sword was a kind of innovation. In no time, the area within a dozen feet was covered in overturned soil and broken stones.
Wujian angrily put away his magic sword, helpless. His divine awareness and magic sword couldn't function well underground. He could see the guy hiding, but he had no way to deal with it.
After a few breaths, a figure appeared again a hundred feet away, staggering and spitting out more blood, then fleeing like a frightened bird.
It was Bai Xian, who seemed to be injured and couldn't stay underground any longer, so he had to show himself.
Wujian jumped up and shouted, "Stop, I won't kill you..."
He might as well not have shouted, as Bai Xian ran even faster, almost risking his life.
Perhaps Bai Xian thought he had just heard a funny joke. I won't kill you? There are no children here, who are you trying to fool! Staying means certain death, running means a chance to live!
Seeing no one paying attention, Wujian started to chase.
Thus, in the canyon leading to Longxi, two figures were chasing each other. Sometimes one would flash and disappear, sometimes one would burrow into the ground, sometimes one would jump and roar, and sometimes one would be forced to show up and continue running...
After two or three hours.
At the end of the canyon, a thousand-foot-high mountain blocked the way. A river about a dozen feet wide flowed slowly around the mountain. On the riverbank, two figures faced each other, both exhausted but unwilling to back down.
Bai Xian looked at the river behind him, took off his mask, revealing a black face with a beard. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, looked at the figure in green clothes dozens of feet away, and panted heavily, "We are both disciples of the Immortal Sect, why must we fight to the death? Leave a way out, and we can meet again. I admit my mistake and am willing to accept punishment..."
Dozens of feet away, Wujian stood with his legs apart. His feet were bare, his sleeves rolled up, and he was panting. The slowly flowing river added to the scene, making him look like a fisherman. He ignored Bai Xian's plea, only resting and looking around.
Using the Flash Escape Technique repeatedly was very draining. The chase had exhausted him. Fortunately, the river blocked the way, hah!
The canyon he had come from ended here, with a large river blocking the path, and no way to go around.
And that slowly flowing, murky river, was it Longxi?
I remember: a river ten thousand feet wide, winding nine times; clouds rise from it, and the weather is unpredictable; immortals and mortals cannot cross, and dragons rise and soar. The map describes it as mysterious, but in reality, it seems quite ordinary.
However, on the other side of the river, the cliffs tower. Should he cross the river and climb over, or trace the river upstream to pass through Longxi and reach the next destination?
There were no boats nearby, should he swim across?
Or should he ride the wind and step on the waves, which would be quite graceful. But stepping on waves for dozens of feet might be manageable, but crossing a ten-thousand-foot-wide river would be quite challenging!
Moreover, why didn't Bai Xian run anymore? Was he blocked by the river and had to surrender...
Bai Xian took out a few items and said in a flattering tone, "Five spirit stones, three spirit herbs, all for Senior Brother He, how about that?"
In the Immortal Sect, losing money to avoid disaster is a rule. Since he couldn't gain an advantage, he had to accept his loss.
Wujian looked back from a distance, bared his teeth at Bai Xian, and still said nothing, only taking a few steps forward barefoot.
Bai Xian's expression changed, and he quickly said, "Senior Brother He, don't be angry! I'll add two more spirit stones, ten talismans, three bottles of pills..."
Wujian ignored him, only pacing slowly.
Bai Xian said urgently, "I've given everything I have, what more does Senior Brother He want? If you bully me too much, I'll only die to prove my resolve!" His eyes were wide, his expression angry, as if ready to make a last stand!
Wujian paused, slightly surprised, then shrugged indifferently, crossed his arms, and lifted his chin, "No one wants your junk, I only want one thing..."
Junk? This is my hundred-year savings!
Bai Xian asked in confusion, "What?"
Wujian smiled, unhurriedly, "Heh heh! Are you bullying me for my lack of knowledge, or hiding it on purpose?" He didn't let Bai Xian argue, and continued, "The world has escape techniques, and the Five Elements can be transformed into powers. Why not trade your earth-burrowing technique for your life?"
"Five Elements Escape Technique? That's the power of the elders, how could I know it?"
"I don't care, I want your earth-burrowing technique!"
Bai Xian's face twitched, and he remained silent...
