All of them had experienced a series of battles, and their qi was consumed to varying degrees. Taking advantage of the fact that the fog array barrier had not been opened, they sat cross-legged on the ground, holding high grade spirit stones in their hands to restore the qi in their bodies. However, Sixth Brother Lei and Lu Bi were already dead in the eyes of the cultivators, and could not show their true faces in front of others. Moreover, Lu Ping also had to bear the blame of killing the Green Sea Snake. It was unknown when this matter would be spread to the Green Sea Snakes.
As Lu Ping moved his qi, he used his divine sense to pay attention to the condition of his body. The qi in his blood vessels was mixed with a trace of black, which was the Yuan Burst Pill that Lu Ping had previously modified using the Ten Thousand Poison Serum. The original medicinal effect of this pill was even stronger than now. After Lu Ping's modification, although the toxins were suppressed, it also made the toxins hidden deeper, and it was much more difficult to completely remove it than before.
This Yuan Burst Pill could only last for a month. If Lu Ping could not rush out of the Western Wilderness within a month and get rid of the pursuit of the Pegasus clan, then the poison pill would backfire, and Lu Ping's strength would inevitably be greatly reduced.
At this time, the Heavenly Pegasus cultivators in the river source area should have already realized that Ma Chenxi's disappearance was not something they could escape from!
The qi in Lu Ping's body was like a raging river flowing in his blood vessels. Lu Ping could clearly sense that every time the qi flowed in his body, there would be traces of invisible black impurities discharged from his body. These black impurities were the toxins contained in the Yuan Burst Pill, but this process seemed to be extremely slow.
In the land of the river source, Ma Chenxi still did not have a path. At this time, he had already realized that something was wrong. Thinking of the situation at that time, Ma Zhongshan increasingly felt that the appearance of Sixth Brother Lei was a bait: Could it be that someone really set up a trap to kill the Fourth Young Master? If that was the case, then the appearance of Sixth Brother Lei just now meant that the Fourth Young Master had already …
Ma Zhongshan did not dare to continue thinking about it. If that was the case, Ma Zhongshan knew very well what it meant to the Tenma people, and he knew even more clearly what it meant to him.
No, he had to think of a way to shirk responsibility. Even if he didn't have any responsibility in the first place, he couldn't become a target or a scapegoat when the clan leader was furious or when he failed to find the culprit.
The other party had deliberately planned to murder the Fourth Young Master and had obviously made preparations to deal with the aftermath. Now that Sixth Brother Lei had fallen, this matter was even more unclear.
"Ma Zhongshan, be careful!"
An exclamation awakened Ma Zhongshan from the previous scene. The moment Ma Zhongshan raised his head, he saw Xie Tianyang suddenly thrust a long, thin, iron needle-like flying sword towards Ma Zhongshan's head in an unexpected way.
Ma Zhongshan sucked in a breath of cold air and hurriedly summoned his magic treasures to defend himself. Fortunately, Xie Tianyang was only one person, while Ma Zhongshan was surrounded by almost all of the Tenma people who entered the river source. A few of the Tenma people's cultivators worked together to save Ma Zhongshan from Xie Tianyang's sneak attack.
Ma Zhongshan, who had entered the state of being impervious to cold and heat, didn't know how many years it had been since he tasted bone-piercing cold.
After unleashing one attack, Xie Tianyang rapidly broke free from the encirclement of the Heavenly Pegasus Clan cultivators. Although the Heavenly Pegasus Clan cultivators had numbers on their side, they were helpless against Xie Tianyang's actions. For the sake of the Wyrm Blood Stone in Ma Zhongshan's possession, Xie Tianyang had utilized various methods to kill off two Heavenly Pegasus Clan cultivators and badly wound four others.
Ma Zhongshan had also thought about entering the fog array, but after entering the fog array, the Tenma people's only advantage in numbers would be lost. Ma Zhongshan didn't have the confidence to protect the Dragon Blood Stone by himself in the fog array.
However, Xie Tianyang's attack, which was the closest to success in the past two days, not only didn't make Ma Zhongshan scared, but it made him even more determined to protect the Dragon Blood Stone in his hand.
Now that Ma Chenxi hadn't appeared, it was very likely that she had been killed. Ma Zhongshan, who strongly advocated not to help Ma Chenxi, was the perfect scapegoat.
If Ma Zhongshan wanted to live, the only way was to bring the Dragon Blood Stone out. Xie Tianyang's almost unscrupulous sneak attack made Ma Zhongshan realize the value of the Dragon Blood Stone in his hand. This stone in his hand meant that the Tenma people would have another person like Patriarch Ma Zhen. As long as he brought the Dragon Blood Stone out, he would be the hero of the Tenma people. The Tenma people wouldn't come back empty-handed this time. Even if the Patriarch hated him, he wouldn't kill him in front of everyone.
Ma Zhongshan couldn't help but cheer up. The most important thing now was to raise the morale of the surrounding cultivators and win their hearts. After all, in the past two days, rather than protecting the Dragon Blood Stone in Ma Chenxi's hand, it was better to say that they were protecting his life. No matter what, they couldn't let Xie Tianyang's sneak attack scatter their hearts.
Layers of halos peeled off from the fog barrier not far from Lu Ping. Lu Ping knew that the reopening of the river source was imminent. The roar of spells constantly rang in his ears. Some cultivators couldn't wait any longer and wanted to forcefully break through the barrier.
Five days later, it was finally time for the mist array's barrier to open. Lu Ping braced himself and his eyes glowed with a green light, ready to strike. His divine sense was already like a flood, pressing against the mist array's barrier. He was waiting for the barrier to open so that he could escape as soon as possible. He couldn't afford to attract the attention of the Heavenly Pegasus cultivators who had already gathered outside the mist array.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
There were already impatient cultivators who broke through the weakening barrier and rushed out. Lu Ping didn't do that because he didn't want to attract the attention of the cultivators of the Tenma people too early.
At this moment, Lu Ping seemed to suddenly remember something. He stretched out his hand and wiped his face. A ripple-like fluctuation spread out and Lu Ping suddenly appeared with another face.
Bo!
A soft sound rang out. Lu Ping's spirit was roused. Samling and Sixth Brother Lei had already been taken into the Golden House. His divine sense suddenly felt relaxed and immediately rushed out of the fog barrier like a flood.
Hmm?
Lu Ping frowned slightly, but he didn't slow down. The boat turned into a blue light and rushed out.
Why weren't there any cultivators of the Tenma people? Strange, even the Koi clan didn't appear?
This was different from the scene that Lu Ping had imagined of the Tenma people coming out in full force to find the murderer who killed Ma Chenxi. When Lu Ping rushed out of the fog barrier, not only did his divine sense not detect the cultivators of the Tenma people, but even the cultivators of the Koi clan didn't appear.
How was this possible?
Lu Ping was shocked and uncertain, but the light under his feet didn't slow down or increase. There were still more than ten cultivators who rushed out with him. Lu Ping followed these people's light and flew towards the east.
Something was wrong!
When Lu Ping's divine sense circled around his surroundings, he seemed to find something wrong. His heart trembled. The situation around him was very strange. There was someone hiding. However, the other party's ability to hide was very brilliant. If it wasn't for the fact that Lu Ping had a divine sense that was stronger than that of an early Dharma adept, he definitely wouldn't have found out.
However, even if Lu Ping found something strange, he only found some clues. He didn't find the cultivator who was hiding!
What a brilliant concealment technique.
Lu Ping felt a chill in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it on his face. He just followed behind a few cultivators who were also heading east. His whole body was secretly on guard. If anything went wrong, he would run with all his might.
At this moment, a strong sound of wind whistling came from the fog barrier behind Lu Ping. It was the sound of a cultivator who was using his full speed to escape.
When cultivators were flying, they would usually use their spiritual power to reduce the sound of this kind of whistling. Otherwise, every cultivator flying would be like swaggering through the streets.
But now, someone had actually rushed out of the fog barrier like this. It must be because they were in a hurry and couldn't care less about many taboos. Or perhaps they had some other purpose and wanted to attract attention.
Indeed, the sound of the whistling could be heard, and many cultivators looked behind them curiously. Lu Ping's heart skipped a beat, and he also slowed down and looked behind him. At this time, if he flew away without looking back, it would definitely arouse suspicion. Lu Ping was afraid of the person hiding. Although he had changed his appearance, if the person hiding was really a Dharma adept, it was hard to say whether the technique would work.
Ma Zhongshan flew out of the fog barrier in a hurry. The moment he saw the outside world, he could not help but let out a long sigh of relief, as if he felt that he was safe.
In the end, Ma Zhongshan still escaped into the fog barrier under Xie Tianyang's endless attacks. However, Xie Tianyang did not know how, but he was still able to find traces of Ma Zhongshan in the fog barrier and chase after him. Fortunately, there were many spaces in the fog barrier that were not fixed. As long as Ma Zhongshan felt that something was wrong, he could jump, and Xie Tianyang would be able to find him for a period of time.
Just like that, Ma Zhongshan managed to survive Xie Tianyang's pursuit.
However, after Ma Zhongshan rushed out of the fog barrier, his expression changed immediately. The reason why he made such a loud whistling sound while flying was to attract the attention of the Tenma people who came to help. However, it was different from the many Tenma people who came to help him. There was not a single person outside the river source. Only a few dozen cultivators who came from the river source were hurriedly leaving.
How could this be!
Ma Zhongshan's face suddenly flashed with panic, and at the same time, there was a sound behind him that was even louder than his previous whistle.
That was the sound of a sword!
Ma Zhongshan's face showed a fierce expression. He turned around and used the treasure in his hand to block with all his might!
Ding!
Ma Zhongshan was sent flying by the sword light that flew out of the fog barrier, and he spat out a mouthful of blood in mid-air.
The sword light disappeared, and Xie Tianyang strode out of the fog barrier!
"Kid, how dare you!"
An angry shout came from the void. Ma Zhongshan's face was full of joy, and he did not care about his internal injuries as he shouted, "Elder Ma Li, the Stone of Dragon Blood!"
A door flashed, and an old man with white hair and beard suddenly appeared behind Ma Zhongshan.
Xie Tianyang was about to chase after him and finish him off with a sword, but when he saw the old man suddenly appear, he gasped and stopped immediately. At the same time, a treasure that could not be seen clearly rose from behind Xie Tianyang, and a purple light firmly protected it. Both of his eyes were shining, and no one knew what he was thinking.
To be called an elder among the Tenma people, one had to be a mid Dharma adept!
Who would dare to watch this show?
The surrounding adepts who had slowed down to watch the show immediately dispersed. Lu Ping suddenly understood. How could the Tenma people be indifferent to the death of the chief's son? They just sent someone more powerful.
However, Lu Ping did not dare to slow down. Who knew if there were more Dharma adepts of the Tenma people hiding in the surroundings? Now that the old man's attention was attracted by the Stone of Dragon Blood, if he did not leave now, when would he?
It was just a pity that Xie Tianyang would not be able to escape from the pursuit of a mid Dharma adept of the Tenma people.
