"You don't have to worry about me. Just guard this place well." Shen Luo replied to the Ghost General. A green light flashed on the surface of his body. He took a step forward and his figure disappeared into the void, disappearing without a trace.
This time, he used the Yi Wood Immortal Escape Art with all his strength. He escaped for more than a hundred miles before reappearing in a lush forest.
Shen Luo didn't stay there for long. He immediately used the Yi Wood Immortal Escape Art and continued to escape. At the same time, he took out the Qiankun Bag and the Ginkgo Spirit Fruit from the jade box.
"Shen Daoyou, why did you take me out of the box?" Ba She immediately noticed Shen Luo's actions from the Qiankun Bag and asked.
"It's nothing. That Nine-headed Bug has some tricks up his sleeve. I've fought with him once before, but it wasn't satisfying enough. This time, I want to see if he can surpass me in terms of escape techniques," Shen Luo said with a smile.
"Are you joking? The Nine-Headed Bug's abilities are not something you can imagine! Damn it! How could I believe a human cultivator like you? If you want to die, don't drag me down with you! " Ba She was stunned for a moment. When he saw that Shen Luo wasn't joking, he was flustered and exasperated. He almost cursed out loud.
"Don't worry. Since I promised to protect you, I won't let anything happen to you." Shen Luo didn't get angry. He used the Yi Wood Immortal Escape Art to advance and said indifferently.
"Are you stalling for time? I heard that you came here with Ao Lie from the West Sea Dragon Palace. Ao Lie and the Nine-Headed Bug fought and both of them were injured. Ao Lie is in the cave just now. Are you waiting for Ao Lie to recover? "Ba She reacted.
"You can know what you should know. Don't talk about what you shouldn't know. Since you're so free, tell me what happened. How did you end up like this? "Shen Luo replied in an indifferent tone.
"After leaving the Ginkgo Tree, we all fled separately. Although my Thunder Escape Technique is not as good as Shen Daoyou's Wind and Thunder Spiritual Wings, it is still faster than the others. We managed to escape far away and thought we were safe. However, the Nine-Headed Bug still managed to find me using the demonic imprint in the Ginkgo Tree. After a brief moment of silence, the Ba Serpent sighed and said, "I wasn't a match for him. My demonic body was severed by the Moon Soul Hook, and my storage Dharma treasure was also taken away. Fortunately, at the last moment, I used the Ba Serpent Clan's Splitting Divine Ability and hid my divine soul in a split body. Then, I used an escape technique to escape to where Shen Daoyou was."
Shen Luo carefully pondered over Ba She's words and verified it repeatedly. There was nothing illogical about it, so it shouldn't be a lie.
"You still haven't answered my previous question. How did you know that I was in that short mountain?" he asked.
"Ahem … Actually, when I was guarding the Ginkgo Tree, I secretly planted a demonic imprint in the Ginkgo Tree. I can use this imprint to sense the spirit fruit's location." Ba She coughed awkwardly.
Shen Luo rolled his eyes. It seemed that Ba She had been plotting for the Ginkgo Tree for a long time. However, this snake was truly useless. He had planted a mark in the spirit fruit, but he did not notice that the Nine-Headed Bug had used the same method.
"What about the others?" he asked after a moment of thought.
"Based on the location of the mark on the Ginkgo Tree, the spirit fruit the Sea Serpent plucked has already fallen into the Nine-Headed Bug's hands. You don't even have to ask to know what happened to him. As for the cultivators from Heshan Sect, I can't guess if they didn't obtain the Ginkgo Tree. However, with the Nine-Headed Bug's Blood Cloud Escape, they're probably done for as well," Ba She said.
"You said before that you could help me deal with the Nine-Headed Bug. Do you have any ideas?" Shen Luo was not particularly concerned about the Sea Serpent and the people from Heshan Sect. He had only asked casually, so he did not say anything about it. Instead, he changed the topic.
"I've been under the Nine-Headed Bug's command for almost a century, so I know the abilities he's skilled in and the treasures he has. More importantly, the Ginkgo Tree that the Nine-Headed Bug carries with him not only have his imprints, but mine as well. My cultivation has decreased drastically, so I can't sense the location of the imprints from thousands of kilometers away like the Nine-Headed Bug, but as long as the Ginkgo Tree comes within five hundred kilometers of me, I'll immediately sense it. With this ability, the Nine-Headed Bug won't be able to ambush us," Ba She said proudly.
"I see. It really is very useful. Sense the location of the imprints at all times. If anything happens, tell me at any time," Shen Luo smiled and said.
Ba She agreed and stopped talking to Shen Luo. He focused on using his technique to sense the location of the imprints.
Shen Luo continued forward. Fifteen minutes later, he placed the Heaven-Earth Pouch and the Ginkgo Tree into the empty jade box before changing directions.
A blood-red cloud surged several thousand kilometers away from him. It moved at a shocking speed.
Within the blood-red cloud, the Nine-Headed Bug had already returned to his human form. His expression was abnormally ugly.
He had already recovered six of the nine Ginkgo Tree, which could be considered as making up for some of his losses. However, the Ginkgo Tree had lost all its leaves from the Ba She, so its vitality was greatly damaged. Although he had a few secret techniques for nurturing spirit trees, he was not sure if they would be effective on the Ginkgo Tree.
"I was careless and actually let that bitch escape! Whatever, she's gone to that bastard surnamed Shen. I'll take care of her together! " The Nine-Headed Bug said viciously. With a wave of his sleeve, a green arcane treasure that resembled a compass appeared before him. The needle on the compass trembled gently and pointed straight ahead.
The Nine-Headed Bug nodded. Just as he was about to put the compass away so that he could focus on using his escape technique, the needle on the compass suddenly began to spin. In the end, he lost track of it.
"Huh? What's going on?" The Nine-Headed Bug was shocked. The blood-red light around him fluctuated, and he stopped. His two hands quickly formed seals towards the compass.
Seals after seals entered the compass. The needle on the compass glowed brightly with green light, but it continued to spin. It did not point in any direction.
The Nine-Headed Bug frowned, but he was not disappointed. He flipped his hand and took out a blood-red bead. It was the Blood Demon Bead.
He then took out a jade bottle and poured out a drop of fresh blood that glowed with blue light onto the Blood Demon Bead. His two hands quickly formed seals to activate the bead.
The fresh blood quickly seeped into the Blood Demon Bead. A blood-red cloud appeared within the Blood Demon Bead and spun quickly. Then, it turned into a blood-red arrow. It spun like the needle on the compass, as if it wanted to point in a certain direction.
Then, the blood-red arrow spun a few rounds, but it still looked lost and disorderly. It also could not sense the location of its target.
"The Ginkgo Tree is fine, but the Ba She is a living creature. How could its aura be completely isolated?" The Nine-Headed Bug's expression sank, but his eyes quickly became cold again.
"Don't think that you can escape from me just because you have one or two aura-isolating treasures. As long as it's in the Dreamy Cloud Swampland, there's no one that I can't find!" The Nine-Headed Bug coldly snorted. The blood-red cloud around him shone brightly. After a slight spin, dozens of blood-red lights shot out in all directions. In the blink of an eye, they disappeared into the horizon.
Within each of the blood-red lights, one could vaguely see hundreds of small blood-red hornets. Each of them was only an inch long, and the patterns on their bodies shone with a metallic luster. These blood-red hummingbirds flew extremely quickly. As they buzzed, they quickly disappeared into the horizon.
