After the middle-aged man with the command medallion left, Tianxiong Lie waved his hand and said, "Carefully search the area for any signs of his escape."
After losing track of Jianchen, Tianxiong Lie's group could only rely on the traces left behind by Jianchen, increasing the difficulty of their search.
In a dense forest in the outskirts of the Magical Beast Mountain Range, Jianchen's face was pale as he sat under a large tree. Using the tip of the Light Wind Sword, he carefully removed the rocks that had pierced into his body. The bright red blood had already dyed his clothes red.
When the tip of the Light Wind Sword pierced into his flesh, a wave of unbearable pain surged through his body. Again and again, the pain assaulted Jianchen's nerves and brain. The pain caused Jianchen's forehead to be covered in a thin layer of sweat.
When the last rock was removed from his body, Jianchen finally let out a soft groan. His entire body was powerless as he leaned against the tree trunk behind him, gasping for breath.
After resting for a while, Jianchen concentrated on listening for any movement in his surroundings. After confirming that it was safe, he immediately sat down cross-legged. Immediately, a layer of faint white light appeared and wrapped around Jianchen's body. Moreover, the white light continued to grow thicker and thicker. After a few breaths, it had formed a dazzling milky white light. Jianchen's entire body was submerged in this milky white light. From the outside, one could only faintly see a blurry figure.
The milky white light lasted for half an hour before gradually dissipating. When the light disappeared, Jianchen's figure could be seen again. But at this moment, the paleness on his face had disappeared and returned to normal. The wounds on his body had also completely disappeared and there wasn't even a single scar where he had been injured.
Jian Chen didn't wake up and continued to sit cross-legged on the ground to recover his Saint Force. He had been through so many battles, and then he had to flee with all his might. His Saint Force had been greatly depleted, and at this moment, the Saint Force in his body was almost completely depleted. In this Magical Beast Mountain Range, where Magical Beasts roamed about, and where Tianxiong Lie and the others could find him at any time, Jian Chen could only maintain his peak condition in order to face the dangers that could occur at any time.
Unknowingly, time quickly passed by and Jianchen had already been sitting cross-legged on the ground for three hours. During this time, his body didn't move at all and he didn't even open his eyes. It was as if he was an old monk who had completely lost his perception of the outside world.
At this moment, behind Jianchen, a python about a foot thick slithered out of the tree and silently approached Jianchen. Its thick body slithered around the tree trunk and very quickly arrived in front of Jianchen. Its small head slowly extended towards Jianchen.
When the python's head was less than three meters away from Jianchen, the cross-legged Jianchen suddenly opened his eyes. With a flash of cold light, the silver-white Light Wind Sword appeared in his right hand and transformed into a blurry sword shadow that shot out with lightning speed.
"Pu!"
The sharp tip of the Light Wind Sword accurately pierced through the python's heart. The Sword Qi contained within the sword instantly crushed the python's heart.
Jianchen didn't even look at the python as he put away the Light Wind Sword and once again sat cross-legged under the tree and closed his eyes to continue his recovery. Although he looked like an old monk in meditation, Jianchen was always vigilant towards his surroundings. In the Magical Beast Mountain Range where Magical Beasts could appear at any time, Jianchen didn't dare to forget himself and focus on recovering his Saint Force.
As for the python, its body, which was about forty to fifty feet long, could no longer cling to the tree trunk. Its entire body fell powerlessly to the ground, making a clumsy sound. It struggled slightly for a while, and then stopped moving.
After another two hours, Jianchen finally opened his eyes and stood up from the ground. He took out a new set of clothes from his spatial belt and changed into them. Looking at the gray sky that was about to turn dark, he pondered for a moment before leaving the area.
Jianchen carefully wandered around the area, looking for the people from the Tianxiong clan. At this time, he had already recovered from his injuries and his Saint Force had also been restored to its peak. Adding on the complicated terrain of the Magical Beast Mountain Range, Jianchen was confident that if he were to meet Tianxiong Lie again, he would be able to easily escape.
At this moment, a few voices vaguely rang out from up ahead. Jian Chen's interest was piqued when he heard the voices. He looked around before leaping up, silently landing on a large tree. He hid among the lush leaves.
Not long after, a few people in white robes slowly walked over from the front.
"This really is a tough job. So many of us have to enter the Mountain Range of Magical Beasts to search for a single person. And we don't even have a portrait of this person. How are we supposed to find him?" A young man dressed in a white robe grumbled.
"That's right. We don't even know what the person looks like. Even if we were to meet him, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to recognize him." The one speaking was a middle-aged man with a full chin beard.
"Hey, brothers, do you know why the family head wants us to find this person?" A person asked doubtfully.
"It's said that the young master, Tianxiong Kang, was killed by this person. Tianxiong Kang is our family head's only son. Now that his only son is dead, how can the family head not be angry?"
"Of course. This time, the family head is determined to catch this murderer. I heard that he has already sent three hundred people into the Magical Beast Mountain Range. Moreover, among these three hundred people, even the weakest has the strength of a Great Saint. As for Saint Masters, there are more than thirty of them."
"The family has already sent so many people into the Magical Beast Mountain Range. Do you think they will be able to catch this murderer? After all, the Magical Beast Mountain Range is extremely large. Perhaps that person has already escaped without a trace."
"That's not necessarily true. According to reliable sources, the murderer has already been heavily injured by our family head. In this area where Magical Beasts roam, he won't be able to escape far."
….
The few people chatted leisurely as they slowly walked over. Looking at their leisurely appearance, it was as if they were taking a stroll. It was as if they didn't take their mission seriously.
Just as the few of them arrived in front of a large tree, the branches and leaves above suddenly swayed, and a figure sprang out, holding a slender silver-white long sword, and stabbed straight at one of the people in the middle.
"Pu!"
Just as they raised their heads, the long sword pierced straight through one of them's glabella from above.
