--- Outside of White Water City, Xiao Chen rushed madly towards Savage Forest. When he saw the weak and unconscious Bai in his arms, his heart ached.
The attack that Bai executed earlier was the sharpest attack of the Mysterious Nine Heavenly Revolution Transformation. It compressed all the Essence in its body into nine strands and then released them explosively. It was very taxing on the body.
When Xiao Chen was training in Savage Forest, he once met a Rank 4 Spirit Beast. At the critical moment, Bai used this move.
At that time, Xiao Chen understood the might of this move and the damage it did to the body. Hence, he scolded Bai harshly and warned it not to use it again. He did not expect it to use it today.
When Xiao Chen looked up, he saw Duanmuqing in the form of an Ice Phoenix in hot pursuit. In two different directions in the sky, a figure on a sword and a scarlet cloud attracted Xiao Chen's attention.
After hearing Fatso's introduction, Xiao Chen already guessed the identities of the two people chasing him. He smiled faintly, "The three geniuses of Dongming Province are working together to chase after me. They are overestimating me."
Xiao Chen executed the Azure Dragon Cloud Soaring Art that he comprehended to its limits. He leaped about on the ground. Looking from a distance, it looked like an Azure Dragon moving about in the air, creating shockwaves.
As long as he entered Savage Forest, Xiao Chen was confident of being able to shake off his pursuers. He had been cultivating in Savage Forest for more than a month and was very familiar with it.
"Boom!"
Just as Xiao Chen was about to step into the periphery of Savage Forest, Duanmuqing suddenly turned into a piece of ice and fell in front of Xiao Chen.
The ice melted on the ground like water. After that, it surged continuously. In an instant, it turned into a human figure. Duanmuqing's beautiful figure appeared in front of Xiao Chen.
Her white hair fluttered in the wind, and there was not a trace of fire in her eyes. She was like a goddess who had transcended the mortal world. Her cold voice slowly opened her mouth and said, "Hand over the sketch, and I won't make things difficult for you."
Xiao Chen did not answer her; he executed the Lightning Evasion to dodge. If he wanted to hand it over, Xiao Chen would have given it to her at Liushang Pavilion.
Now that they were already at the edge of Savage Forest, they had to fight for it. Although Xiao Chen did not know what this map was, seeing how nervous she was, it was definitely not an ordinary map.
Hua! Hua!
A river of blood descended from the sky. Shua, the river of blood landed on the ground. Hua Yunfei's figure appeared behind Duanmuqing.
Chi!
Chu Chaoyun, who was riding on his sword, quickly descended and landed firmly on the ground. The sword of light under his feet turned into a beam of light and flew into his forehead.
The three of them were not in a rush to chase after Xiao Chen. Hua Yunfei looked at the two of them and revealed a sinister smile, "Since Miss Duanmu did not manage to catch this brat, how about this?"
"The three of us will use our own abilities to chase after him. No matter who obtains the sketch, we will share it with the other party. What do you think?"
Chu Chaoyun's expressionless face did not reveal any expression. He said, "I agree. Our three clans came uninvited. These few days, Jiang Mingxun has been resisting the pressure and refusing to lead the way. He must be waiting for help."
"I heard that the Ji Clan of Nanling Province will be arriving soon. At that time, we will have another strong opponent. As long as we are ahead of the Jiang Clan and snatch the sketch, our three clans can ignore the Jiang Clan and work together to explore."
Duanmuqing's white hair slowly turned black. The otherworldly look in her eyes became much gentler. Her red lips parted slightly as she said, "Sure."
After the three of them spoke, they immediately flew into the depths of Savage Forest. They used their own methods and chased after Xiao Chen.
After the three of them left, Su Xiaoxiao slowly appeared while hugging her zither. She said softly, "It really is the Blue Dragon Cloud Soaring Art. I was not wrong the last time. The head of the four Holy Beasts, the Blue Dragon Martial Spirit, has reappeared in the world."
After she spoke, she did not enter Savage Forest. There was a look of contemplation in her eyes. After a while, she hugged her zither and quickly rushed towards White Water City.
Not long after Su Xiaoxiao left, the First Elder of the Jiang Clan, Jiang Yunze, led a group of cultivators from the Jiang Clan and rushed over. This group of cultivators were all Martial Masters, and there was a total of more than 200 of them.
Jiang Yunze looked at the Savage Forest in front of him and said, "Split into twenty teams. Each team has ten people. After you discover the target, make your move immediately. Ten Martial Masters against one Superior Grade Martial Disciple should be foolproof."
After he spoke, he took out a few portraits and handed them to the group, "Savage Forest is too big. With just the few of us, we might not be able to find him. If you meet cultivators who are out for experiential training, hand these portraits to them and ask for their assistance in the hunt."
In the periphery of Savage Forest, Xiao Chen was running very quickly. He extended out his Spiritual Sense and everything that happened within 800 meters of him was recorded in his mind.
The entire Savage Forest stretched for thousands of kilometers. Just the periphery alone was more than a thousand hectares. Furthermore, aside from Spirit Beasts, there were also many cultivators here for experiential training and hunting. Xiao Chen hiding in there was like a drop of water in the ocean.
"Hu Chi!"
A pack of gray wolves appeared in the range of Xiao Chen's Spiritual Sense. The gray wolves were Rank 3 Spirit Beasts that lived in packs. Every time they appeared, there would be at least twenty of them. Xiao Chen knew that they would not be easy to deal with, so he prepared to go around them.
Withdrawing his Spiritual Sense, Xiao Chen moved to the side. Just at this moment, there was the sound of footsteps. Xiao Chen's heart trembled. He did not know who it was, so he quickly hid in the bushes at the side.
"That brat really knows how to hide. After searching for so long, I have not even seen a shadow."
"I really don't know how this brat offended the Jiang Clan, to actually be wanted by the Jiang Clan, with a bounty of a thousand gold taels."
"I heard that this brat snatched away a treasure map from the Jiang Clan. It is the map of the ancient remnant of the human race that has been spreading like wildfire recently. Say, if we manage to get our hands on it, can we go and try our luck?"
"Ha ha, with your cultivation as a Medial Grade Martial Master, I advise you not to even think about it. That map is just a copy, the original is still in the hands of the Jiang Clan. The three powers of Dongming Province are all here. I'm afraid you will be killed before you even get close to the ancient remnant. We should just hand this map over to the Jiang Clan and earn some money. "
"That's true. No matter how tempting a treasure is, without a life to enjoy it, it is just empty talk. Let's keep searching, I clearly saw that brat running over here."
Xiao Chen, who was in the bushes, was astonished. The power of the Jiang Clan in this area was indeed horrifying. They actually managed to bribe the cultivators in the periphery of Savage Forest so quickly. This is going to be troublesome, I have to hurry over there.
A cultivator was holding a saber in his hand as he walked towards the bushes that Xiao Chen was in. The saber in his hand was continuously chopping away the thorns blocking his way.
I'm going to be discovered, I can't go on like this. Seeing that person getting closer, Xiao Chen thought to himself, I have to make the first move.
"Hua!"
Xiao Chen jumped out from the bushes and swung his saber. In the instant that person was shocked, he chopped him in half. After that, he quickly rushed towards the remaining five cultivators.
"Ninth Brother has been killed by him, quickly kill him!" When everyone saw that Xiao Chen had chopped Ninth Brother in half with one saber strike, they were all astonished. Ninth Brother was a Medial Grade Martial Master, yet he was actually killed by this person with one saber strike.
"Drawing the Saber!"
Xiao Chen executed the Rushing Thunder Saber Technique. The Lunar Shadow Saber gave off an electric glow, and the energy of the Rank 6 Demonic Core was released without holding anything back. The saber light flashed in the air, and another cultivator in front was chopped in half.
"Arclight Chop!"
"I'll kill you!" A cultivator at the side saw that another of his companions had been killed by Xiao Chen. Facing this flawless Arclight Chop, his eyes turned bloodshot. He held his saber and chopped at Xiao Chen without any care.
"Pu Chi!"
Once the Rushing Thunder Saber Technique was executed, one would not be able to retreat. Otherwise, one's aura would drop to an extreme, and one would not be able to execute the aura of the Rushing Thunder Chop for a short period of time.
Xiao Chen did not dodge this saber strike. The saber landed on Xiao Chen's chest, leaving a bloody wound. However, before this person could rejoice, he was chopped in half by the Arclight Chop.
"Rushing Heaven Chop!"
Holding the Lunar Shadow Saber, Xiao Chen soared into the sky and pierced through the chest of the person in front of him. The huge force instantly blasted that person's body into countless pieces of meat.
"Rushing Thunder Chop!"
A clap of thunder resounded in the sky. Xiao Chen carried the might of the heavenly thunder as he charged through the air. The person below raised his saber to block. "Bang!" The saber immediately shattered, and the Lunar Shadow Saber easily chopped his body in half from head to toe.
"Rushing Thunder Second Chain Chop!"
Xiao Chen turned around and swung his saber. The energy gathered by the first four saber strikes of the Rushing Thunder Chop was released explosively with this Rushing Thunder Second Chain Chop. The person who was about to sneak attack Xiao Chen from behind was crushed into powder by the huge force of this saber strike.
Looking at the corpses of the six people on the ground, Xiao Chen did not feel any unease in his heart. Since these people wanted to kill him and steal the map, they had to be prepared to be killed.
Taking out a Qi Returning Pill and placing it in his mouth, Xiao Chen looked at the wound on his chest and frowned slightly. If the Battle Armor had not been damaged by Tang Feng, this saber strike would not have been able to injure him.
After leaving Mohe City, Xiao Chen discovered that the Profound Ranked Battle Armor that Xiao Xiong gave him had already lost its spirituality due to Tang Feng's attack. It was now no different from a normal soft armor. In order to not affect his movements, Xiao Chen simply threw away the Battle Armor.
In the earlier battle, given Xiao Chen's strength, he could have easily dealt with this group of people. He would not have to exhaust much of his Essence to kill them easily.
Xiao Chen was afraid that if he dragged things out for too long, he would attract even more trouble. Thus, he used the Rushing Thunder Saber Technique, which consumed a lot of Essence, in order to deal with them in a short amount of time.
Taking out a Blood Replenishing Pill, Xiao Chen crushed it and applied it on their wounds. Then, he opened the bags on the backs of the six cultivators. These were all cultivators who had trained in Savage Forest for a long time.
There was a large amount of Spirit Beast Inner Cores and herbs in the bags. Xiao Chen counted them, there was a total of four Rank 3 Spirit Beast Inner Cores and five Rank 4 herbs. The rest were all cheap items, which Xiao Chen casually threw away.
They are still worth some silver taels. Xiao Chen revealed a smile on his face as he placed the Rank 3 Spirit Beast Inner Cores and Rank 4 herbs into his Universe Ring.
For the rest of the journey, Xiao Chen kept an eye out. He would rather expend his Essence quickly and extend his Spiritual Sense. As long as he met someone, he would immediately avoid them. It did not matter if they had ulterior motives or not, he would just go around them.
When it was close to dusk, Xiao Chen arrived at an extremely desolate area in the outskirts of Savage Forest. When he arrived here, Xiao Chen's tense expression finally relaxed and he withdrew his Spiritual Sense.
He took large strides towards the forestland in front of him. His figure walked in the forest at a very strange pace. After a while, Xiao Chen's figure suddenly disappeared into the forest like a ghost.
