After Lord Zhongling landed in another World Sky, he immediately thought of a way to escape in his Divine Decree.
At first, he had assumed that Zhang Yan had been able to track him down with the help of sword light. But now that he thought about it, he realized that wasn't right. Zhang Yan's speed was simply too fast. If a cultivator's clone was outside, and they weren't in the same world, then it would be impossible for them to know what was going on with their clone. Even he himself didn't have the ability to do so, so there was no reason for Zhang Yan to be able to track him down so quickly. And yet, Zhang Yan had been able to accurately track him down every single time.
Although he could not figure out what method it was, cultivators relied on sensing the Qi activity to find others. It was not a bad idea to hide the Qi activity as much as possible. But before that, he needed to clean up the surrounding sword light.
With that in mind, his four eyes seemed to have exchanged positions with each other. In an instant, some kind of change occurred in the space around him, as if it had been wrongly severed. Although the sword light spun around him, it was in a different world and could not touch him no matter what.
After temporarily solving this matter, he immediately lowered his Qi activity to the lowest. Then, he swallowed a great medicine and condensed his Dharmakaya. He strived to recover some strength before Zhang Yan came again.
At this moment, Zhang Yan was already coming to where Lord Zhongling was. But he suddenly realized that the person's presence had become much weaker, as if he could disappear at any time. After thinking for a while, he understood that the person had also realized the problem and had begun to consciously conceal his presence.
But as long as the Qi activity was not completely concealed, it did not make much difference to him. With a thought, he had already escaped through the void. As soon as he stepped on the ground, he waved his sleeve at a certain world. Billions of lightning flashed between heaven and earth.
Lord Zhongling did not choose to stay and fight. The moment he appeared, he shifted his mana, released the Xuan Kong, and escaped in time.
Seeing this, Zhang Yan's eyes flashed. With a thought, a dozen sword lights chased after him.
After Lord Zhongling came out from another world, he directly used the first divine power to isolate the sword lights. Then, he shook his hand and threw out countless formation flags. Then, he escaped into it.
The best way to conceal one's aura was to use a restriction array. In fact, it was more convenient to use a spiritual boat. However, he never used any spiritual boat except his physical body when traveling between realms. Besides, he had to bear great pressure when traveling between realms, and the spiritual boat couldn't bear it. Therefore, it was useless to take it out since it would only restrict him.
After he did so, the sword lights that were circling outside suddenly separated. One part stayed, and the other part flew away.
On the other side, Zhang Yan was searching with the Star Gazing Plate. But this did not go smoothly. Because he was blocked by the restrictive formation, he could not know the specific location of Lord Zhongling from here.
However, this didn't mean that he couldn't find this person. After waiting for a long time, a beam of sword light flew over from afar and entered his body. He smiled faintly and said, "The Realm of Peace, the Realm of Pure Truth."
As soon as he spoke, he saw a flash of light, and he was already in the Ten Thousand Empty Ring. After passing through several times, he came to another World Sky. Here, he still could not sense the existence of the target, but he could clearly see that the sword light that was separated from before was circling around a spell formation. Obviously, Lord Zhongling was hiding in it at the moment.
He stepped out, broke through the void, and appeared above the formation. He raised his sleeve and pressed down. In an instant, the Qi surged, and a huge hand appeared in the sky and slammed down.
After this period of rest, Lord Zhongling had more or less recovered his previous strength. Looking at the gradually enlarging shadow above him, he raised his head and blew out a mouthful of white gas. When it rose high into the sky, it turned into clouds and gathered in one place. It stretched across the sky and temporarily stopped the giant hand.
Zhang Yan did not stop. With a change of his mind, countless sword lights rotated in the sky and gathered like a galaxy. Then, they poured down like a rainstorm, and the restrictive formation below was smashed into pieces in an instant.
Lord Zhongling used the same trick again. His four eyes crossed, and the space was suddenly separated. The sword lights passed through his body and did not cause any damage. But this situation did not last for long. After a breath, his dharmakaya was split by the sword lights that came after.
Speaking of which, he had only used a trick to distort the space. But Zhang Yan could even calculate the root of a cultivator, let alone this kind of change.
Lord Zhongling hurriedly gathered his Dharmakaya, but at this moment, he felt his Divine Will sink, and he once again felt that his Shadow of the Future was under threat. He could not help but feel surprised, and at the same time a little panicked. Originally, he thought that Zhang Yan should have used up a lot of his energy to hunt him down, and he would not use this method again, but he did not expect that he could still use it.
This kind of battle was not his forte. The reason why he dared to make a move earlier was because he was relying on his strategy. Although his magic power had recovered, the Divine Decree consumed his Origin Energy. This was not something that could be replenished in a short period of time. Compared to the beginning, he was actually much weaker. If he was slightly careless, he would die.
Thinking of this, he did not dare to take any risks. He hurriedly took the root of the fruit and escaped. Although he felt that the root of the fruit had been calculated by the opponent, he had bought some time. He used his mana, opened the mysterious hole, and let himself fall into it, just like Just Now. Just as he disappeared, another sword light flashed in it.
Zhang Yan took out the astrolabe and looked at it. Just like the last time, he did not find the person. Then, he could only wait for the sword light clone to return to get specific information.
But he was not in a hurry. After obtaining the secret method of raising this fish, he understood that if Mo Yu Fish Scale Feathers were fully grown, he would have thirty-six feathers on him. Then, no matter how much his strength increased, it would not exceed this number.
This kind of fish was raised in the Xuanming Pool because it was useful to the disciples of the Great Underworld Patriarch. Since the rest of the fish only had a few feathers left, it was impossible for Lord Zhongling to maintain the original number. It would be good if more than half of them were left.
And where the feather was cast, it could only stay there. Even the original owner could not get it back. This also meant that the boundaries that Lord Zhongling could go to were fixed. As long as he could find them one by one and leave a sword light clone in each location, he would be able to know where Lord Zhongling went no matter where he went.
After waiting for a while, a sword light came over and merged into his body in the blink of an eye. He smiled slightly, got up, and flew into the Ten Thousand Empty Ring. Not long after, he landed in another unfamiliar space. His eyes turned, and he used the sword light to find the whereabouts of his target.
Lord Zhongling sensed that he was chasing and did not dare to meet him face to face. Without hesitation, he used the mysterious cave to escape. The many sword lights that had been following him, after splitting off one of them to stay in this space, the rest also went into the mysterious cave.
Seeing him leave, Zhang Yan put his hands behind his back and waited patiently. This time, not long after, a sword light flew out from the ring. When it entered his body, he immediately knew where Lord Zhongling had escaped to. He turned around and returned to the ring. In almost a breath's time, he had caught up. However, the result this time was the same as the last time. Lord Zhongling felt that he had no chance of winning, so he fled first again.
Zhang Yan did not give up. Since he had met him, he did not plan to let this person go. Moreover, this demonic fish was too cunning. If he did not find a way to get rid of it, he might not have such a good chance in the future.
In the following days, Lord Zhongling repeatedly escaped in different spaces. Every time, he would leave behind a few doppelgangers to slow down Zhang Yan. If he lost too much mana, he would consume great medicine to refine it. It was obvious that he was preparing for a long battle of attrition.
This strategy was not considered brilliant, but it was one of the more correct choices at the moment. If Zhang Yan continued to chase after him like this, then in the course of the battle and pursuit, his transcendence energy would continue to be consumed. If he gave up halfway, even if he successfully got rid of this enemy, he could find a chance to regain his face in the future. However, if Zhang Yan did not stop, then sooner or later, his transcendence energy would be exhausted, and then he could counterattack.
Soon, more than 30 days had passed. The battle was still going on, and it seemed that it was far from the end.
Zhang Yan's mana was now bottomless. Even though he had been chasing Lord Zhongling for days, his Qi dynamic did not weaken at all. However, his arrangement was about to be completed.
This time, he followed Lord Zhongling to a total of 21 worlds. Lord Zhongling basically revolved around these worlds. If five worlds, including Jueyuan Heaven, were added, there would be about 26 worlds. But considering that this person might leave one or two escape routes for him, and that the world that secretly cooperated with Yang Yougong might also leave some scales behind, the number should be around 30, no more.
Furthermore, he also noticed that Lord Zhongling was actually unable to repeatedly travel to the same world within a short period of time. There would be at least a period of time between each trip. This meant that his Realm Disappearing Technique was not flawless. There were many limitations, and the more he was pressured, the more he would be exposed.
Now, he had left sword light doppelgangers in all 21 worlds. No matter where Lord Zhongling appeared, he could rush over at once. In Lord Zhongling's opinion, perhaps the longer the battle dragged on, the more advantageous it would be for him, but it was the same for him. This was because he was the one who had the initiative, and he could decide whether to advance or retreat, instead of being forced to deal with the enemy passively.
As he pondered, he did not stop and stepped into another world. However, when he looked around, he was surprised to find that this was Ye Haitian. Lord Zhongling had never been here before. With a thought, he immediately understood that as he chased the demonic fish faster and faster, it finally had to use its original hidden escape route.
He thought to himself, "If I put it in Ye Haitian, it will be a good idea."
Ye Haitian's Heavenly Lord Ao Shao was a fourth tribulation cultivator, and few dared to cause trouble here. As a demonic fish, Lord Zhongling could hide his identity better here. However, since it could be a escape route, there might be some powerful arrangement here. He had to be careful when he came down. After sensing for a while, he found that the sword light that chased this world was hovering above a world. He knew that it was that place. He crashed into it, broke through the void, and appeared directly where the sword light landed.
