This idea in Xiao Chen's mind was no longer crazy, but deranged. However, Xiao Chen was also helpless. He didn't want to fight to the death with a Dao Transformation Realm cultivator, but there was no other way. If he didn't do this, he and his mother wouldn't be able to survive.
As soon as he left the cave, Xiao Chen knew that the three Sky Wolf Guards chasing after him would be able to find that cave in a short amount of time. The reason why he was able to erase all of the traces around the cave was also because Xiao Chen guessed that the three Sky Wolf Guards would split up to chase after him, because this was the only choice.
Xiao Chen had already guessed all of this. At the same time, he also expected that one of the Sky Wolf Guards would definitely catch up to him. This was because a Dao Transformation Realm cultivator was clearly faster than him, not to mention that Xiao Chen was carrying his mother, Bai Ruyue.
They would be caught up sooner or later, so Xiao Chen used a trick to draw away the other two Sky Wolf Guards. This way, he only needed to face one Sky Wolf Guard, and the pressure instantly decreased by a lot.
However, this was only relative. If he wanted to truly escape, he had to find a way to get rid of this Sky Wolf Guard. Otherwise, he would catch up sooner or later. At the same time, even more Sky Wolf Guards would come after hearing the news.
He had to fight. If he didn't fight, he would die. So even though he knew this was a deranged idea, Xiao Chen had no other choice. Only by killing this Sky Wolf Guard would Xiao Chen and Bai Ruyue have enough time to escape.
His eyes were filled with determination. Even though he was facing a Dao Transformation Realm cultivator with his Dao Querying Realm cultivation, Xiao Chen was still fearless. He madly ran until he finally found a secret hiding place. Xiao Chen put down Bai Ruyue and deliberately said with a calm expression, "Mother, you must be tired after running for so long. Rest here for a bit. I'll go get some water. Mother, remember not to move."
He didn't tell Bai Ruyue that he was going to kill that Sky Wolf Guard. Telling her would only make her worry for nothing. However, Xiao Chen had clearly overlooked a problem. As the saying goes, no one knows a son better than his mother. Although Xiao Chen concealed it very well, Bai Ruyue still saw through his thoughts with a single glance.
Holding Xiao Chen's hand, Bai Ruyue gently said, "Chen 'er, do you really want to go?"
When Bai Ruyue said this, Xiao Chen naturally knew that she had seen through his thoughts. He no longer hid it and nodded solemnly. "We have to go. If we don't go, mother and I won't be able to escape. If that's the case, I'd rather take a gamble."
. "She clearly knew what Xiao Chen would face if he left. An enemy two realms higher than him. This was practically suicide. However, after hearing Xiao Chen's words, Bai Ruyue also knew that Xiao Chen had a reason not to go. If there was any other way, Xiao Chen definitely wouldn't face a Dao Transformation Realm cultivator head on.
Mother and son looked at each other. After a moment of silence, Bai Ruyue said, "Chen 'er, without you, mother definitely won't be able to survive. So, promise mother that you'll come back alive."
"Mother, don't worry. I won't die so easily. Mother, rest here now. Before I come back, mother must not move around." Xiao Chen replied.
With that, Xiao Chen didn't hesitate any longer. He didn't even wait for Bai Ruyue's reply. Xiao Chen resolutely turned around and left. Looking at Xiao Chen's departing figure, Bai Ruyue's eyes were already filled with tears.
Xiao Chen naturally wouldn't die so easily. Because if he died, then his mother would definitely have no chance of surviving. The best outcome would be her being captured by the Sky Wolf Guard again. However, without Xiao Chen, would Bai Ruyue continue to live? Obviously not. So, even if there was only a trace of hope, Xiao Chen would do his best.
He slowly walked to the path he had just taken. He had already observed that this was a very good place for an ambush. It was surrounded by dense forest and shrubs. Not only was it easy to hide, but it was also easy to set up a trap.
If he wanted to kill a Dao Transformation Realm expert, Xiao Chen naturally couldn't go head to head with him, let alone have a fair fight. Xiao Chen wanted to use underhanded means. It would be best if he could directly kill this Sky Wolf Guard. Even if he couldn't kill him, he had to heavily injure him. Only in this way would Xiao Chen have a chance of success.
Taking a deep breath, Xiao Chen carefully set up a trap in the surroundings. Against a Dao Transformation Realm cultivator, ordinary traps were naturally useless. So, Xiao Chen's traps were mostly talisman formations.
The only thing worth rejoicing over was that Lan Xieao had taught Xiao Chen how to set up a few talisman formations back in the Heavenly Chen Continent. However, these talisman formations were the most ordinary ones, so they weren't difficult to set up.
At this very moment, Xiao Chen had completely replaced the low level talismans with high level talismans. So, the might of these talisman formations had been forcefully raised by Xiao Chen by over three levels.
The might of a talisman formation mainly came from two things. The first was the talisman formation itself. The higher the level of the talisman formation, the greater its might would naturally be. The second was the talisman formation used to set up the talisman formation. The higher the level of the talisman formation, the greater the might of the talisman formation.
These two things were the main reasons that affected the might of a talisman formation. Xiao Chen wasn't a Talisman Formation Master, so the number of talisman formations he knew could be counted on one hand. Moreover, they were all the most rudimentary ones. However, the talismans Xiao Chen used to set up these talisman formations had all reached the Heaven Rank. As a result, their might naturally doubled.
After working for six to eight hours, Xiao Chen set up a total of four talisman formations here. These four talisman formations were actually a single formation, but Xiao Chen had set them up four times. As a result, when they were activated at the same time, the four layers of talisman formations would stack together and their might would increase by a lot.
He had completely used up all the offensive talismans he had on him. And this was only because of the Space Ring that Gu Qi had given him before. Otherwise, Xiao Chen really wouldn't have been able to set up these four formations.
His preparations were complete. After swallowing several healing pills, Xiao Chen hid himself in the nearby bushes. He did his best to hide his presence as he patiently waited for the Sky Wolf Guard to arrive.
He was not in a hurry, nor did he dare to relax in the slightest. Even his breathing had become much more subtle. Maintaining this tense state, Xiao Chen waited for over two hours before the Sky Wolf Guard finally appeared in his line of sight.
He didn't chase after Xiao Chen without thinking. On the contrary, this Sky Wolf Guard was extremely cautious along the way.
He followed the tracks that Xiao Chen left behind all the way here. As he watched the Sky Wolf Guard draw closer and closer, Xiao Chen's hands unconsciously clenched tightly. Whether or not he would succeed would depend on whether this Sky Wolf Guard would take the initiative to walk into the range of the talisman formation.
If he discovered that there were talisman formations in the surroundings ahead of time, then all his previous efforts would be wasted. Without the might of the talisman formation as a foundation, Xiao Chen wanting to kill a Dao Transformation Realm cultivator was simply a pipe dream.
"Hurry up and get in, hurry …" Xiao Chen's gaze was fixed on this Sky Wolf Guard. As he watched him walk step by step towards the range of the talisman formation, he secretly shouted in his heart.
