Six hours later, a red dot of light appeared several hundred meters above the Thousand Bat Mountain Range. It gradually grew bigger and bigger. Then, the red dot of light appeared about thirty meters above a large lake. The red dot of light was very large.
The red dot of light was actually a huge centipede that was forty to fifty meters long. The centipede was blood-red, and its tentacles were several meters long. It had over a thousand pairs of thin legs and four pairs of blood-red translucent wings.
On top of the giant centipede stood ten Immortal Cultivators. Most of the Immortal Cultivators wore blood-red Se robes with a flame pattern on them. A small portion of Immortal Cultivators wore black Se robes with ice-cold expressions.
On the head of the centipede stood a beautiful middle-aged woman wearing a pink dress. Next to her was a middle-aged man with a withered face and a dark expression.
The middle-aged woman looked down at the lake and frowned. She extended her left hand, which was covered in blood-red light, and made a grabbing motion.
"Sou, sou." Two pieces of the Blood-Red Flag flew from the ground and landed in the woman's hand.
The middle-aged woman frowned and muttered to herself, "Bloodflame Flag, it seems Hall Master Zhou and the others have been killed."
"Hmph, Protector Zhao, didn't you say that your Bloodflame Sect was very powerful? You actually let her escape again. If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have looked for your Bloodflame Sect. "The middle-aged man snorted and spoke with dissatisfaction.
"Fellow Daoist Mo, you should be clear that the Pure Palace is protecting the person you want. The Pure Palace is the number one sect of the Righteous Dao. To be able to make the Pure Palace protect the person you want, he definitely isn't an ordinary disciple. It isn't strange for Hallmaster Zhou to not be a match for him. Moreover, in the cultivation world of the Great Song, the number of people who would dare oppose the Pure Palace can be counted on one hand. If you were to find the other sects of the Ten Great Devil Sects, I'm afraid the price they would offer wouldn't be any lower than our Bloodflame Sect."
"Hmph, your Bloodflame Sect's price might not be high, but I don't see you putting in any effort. Those two Taiqing Palace Elders were still let off by you," sneered the middle-aged man.
"The Bloodflame Sect only agreed to help you kill one person, but we didn't agree to kill the Elders of the Taiqing Palace. Moreover, the two Elders of the Taiqing Palace escaped using secret techniques. We didn't let them go. We've already severely injured them. We've already given you Black Sorcerers a lot of face. If we kill the Elders of the Taiqing Palace and cause a war between the Righteous and Evil Paths, would you Black Sorcerers come all the way here to help us?"
"There were no outsiders at that time. If you killed them, who would know that the elders of the Taiqing Palace died at the hands of the Xueyan Sect?" The middle-aged man looked somewhat displeased.
"Alright, let's not talk about this now! You'd better cast a spell to find the location of the person you want! Otherwise, if the person escapes, don't blame the Bloodflame Sect for not helping. "The middle-aged woman's tone changed as she changed the topic.
The middle-aged man nodded. He flipped his hand and took out a palm-sized Black Se disk. He chanted an obscure incantation and the Black Se disk lit up with bursts of black light.
After a while, the middle-aged man stopped chanting and spat out a mouthful of essence blood into the Black Se disk. Immediately after, several spells flashed and disappeared into the Black Se disk.
The Black Se disk immediately trembled and dense Black Se runes surged out. After spinning in the air, they turned into a foot-long Black Se arrow. The arrowhead pointed in a certain direction and swayed from side to side from time to time.
The middle-aged man measured the length of the Black Se arrow and said, "Southeast, between three thousand and six thousand kilometers."
"Tsk tsk, your Sorcerer Race's Spirit Seeking Technique is truly exquisite. You can track the approximate location of the other party with just a drop of essence blood. Speaking of which, if you have a drop of essence blood, can you really track that person from ten thousand kilometers away?" The middle-aged woman clicked her tongue in wonder.
"Of course it can. However, the caster has to be at least at the Core Formation stage. In addition, the target's cultivation must be lower than the caster's. If the target's cultivation is higher than the caster's, then the caster will easily suffer a backlash. However, the interval between two uses must be over three days. Each use will consume a bit of the caster's essence blood. If it's not necessary, it's best not to use this technique." The middle-aged man nodded with a face full of pride.
"So you're saying that Fellow Mo won't be able to use this technique for the next three days?" The middle-aged woman's eyes flashed and she casually asked.
"In theory, yes. Alright, let's talk about this later! Let's hurry up and get moving! I can use the Spirit Seeking Technique to track her, and within a certain range, she can also use the Reverse Spirit Seeking Technique to know our approximate location. It's best to get rid of her as soon as possible so as to avoid any more trouble. "At the end, the middle-aged man's eyes flashed with a trace of coldness.
The middle-aged woman nodded and with a move, the giant centipede's four pairs of blood red wings lightly flapped and turned into a red light, quickly flying towards the southeast direction. In less than a breath's time, it disappeared into the horizon.
… ….
Wang Changsheng sat cross-legged in the cabin and listened to Wang Xuan's narration of his experience in the past year.
When Wang Changsheng participated in the sect's competition, Wang Xuan also saved up enough contribution points to exchange for two Foundation Establishment Pills. With the help of the two Foundation Establishment Pills, he successfully entered the Foundation Establishment Stage.
After Wang Xuan successfully entered the Foundation Establishment Stage, he went to the Green Wood Peak to look for Wang Changsheng, but in the end, he didn't find Wang Changsheng.
Different from Wang Changsheng, Wang Xuan wasn't able to become a disciple of a Core Formation Stage elder and was only an ordinary disciple. After entering the Foundation Establishment Stage, Wang Xuan left the sect to gain experience, half a year earlier than Wang Changsheng.
When Wang Xuan returned to the sect, Wang Changsheng had already left the sect, so Wang Changsheng didn't find Wang Xuan.
Not long after Wang Xuan returned to the sect, a late Core Formation Stage elder of the Thousand Sword Sect successfully entered the Nascent Soul Stage. After that, Wang Xuan was appointed by a deacon elder to follow two martial uncles to a certain place to pick up someone. The person they were going to pick up was the woman in palace attire.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Wang Xuan and the others met with the woman in palace attire, they were attacked. The two Core Formation Stage martial uncles stayed behind and let Li Yan and the others escort the woman back to the sect.
Not long after, they encountered a second wave of ambushes. Several of their fellow disciples died on the spot. Li Yan led ten of his fellow disciples and barely managed to open a path and escape with the woman in palace attire.
However, when they arrived at the Thousand Bat Mountain Range, the third wave of pursuers arrived. At that moment, the woman in palace attire discovered that something was amiss. She knew that someone was using a secret technique of the shaman race to determine her approximate location.
If it wasn't for Wang Changsheng's appearance, Wang Xuan and the others would have most likely met with disaster.
Wang Xuan seemed to have thought of something and casually asked, "Oh right, Brother Wang, I haven't seen you for a while. Where have you been?"
When Wang Changsheng heard this, he opened his mouth to answer.
At that moment, an ear-piercing shriek sounded.
When Wang Changsheng heard the shriek, he curiously looked towards the source of the shriek and discovered that it came from the woman in palace attire.
Wang Xuan and the others also looked curiously at the woman in palace attire.
The woman in palace attire was originally resting with her eyes closed. When the shriek sounded out, she opened her eyes and her expression greatly changed.
She touched her waist and a palm-sized white jade pendant appeared in her hand. The white jade pendant released bursts of white light and the shriek grew louder and louder.
The woman in palace attire solemnly said, "Not good, the enemy has caught up. This time, it should be a Core Formation cultivator."
"No way! Core Formation cultivator? Are you sure? "When the tall youth heard this, his expression changed and he spoke with disbelief.
"I'm sure. Furthermore, they are less than five hundred kilometers away from us. They will soon catch up." The woman in palace attire spoke with a nervous expression.
Hearing this, everyone's expression suddenly changed.
Wang Changsheng's eyes turned and he hastily said, "Brother Li, quickly descend to the ground."
The tall youth nodded and formed a seal with one hand. The speed of the golden boat doubled and it quickly descended.
Not long after, the golden light barrier on the surface of the golden boat suddenly disappeared and it slowly landed on a desolate plain. Wang Changsheng and the others walked out of the boat one after another.
"Quickly think of a way. They are about to catch up." The woman in palace attire hurriedly urged as the shriek from the white jade pendant became louder and louder.
The tall youth raised his brow and asked, "It seems that we can only escape through the earth. Do any of you know earth escape or earth escape techniques?"
Hearing this, Wang Xuan and the others looked at each other in dismay and no one answered.
"None of you know earth escape techniques?" When the tall youth saw this, his expression became unsightly.
Wang Changsheng said, "I don't know earth escape techniques, but I have earth escape talismans. I can escape a thousand meters underground."
"Earth escape talismans? How many are there? "The tall youth's face lit up with joy and he asked.
Wang Changsheng pondered for a moment and said, "Yes, there are only a hundred of them. If they were divided among six people, they wouldn't be able to escape a thousand kilometers."
The tall youth's eyes turned and he asked, "Hmm, how about this. Brother Wang, you take Fellow Daoist Wu and escape through the earth. We'll wait for you at the Tan Province Branch. What do you think?"
When Wang Changsheng heard this, he frowned. If no one could locate the woman's location, it wouldn't be a problem for Wang Changsheng to escape through the earth with her. However, there was a Core Formation cultivator that could locate her. If Wang Changsheng were to bring her along, it would be the same as being targeted by a Core Formation cultivator.
Just as Wang Changsheng was thinking about how to refuse, with a "pa" sound, the white jade pendant in the hand of the woman in the palace dress shattered.
"Not good, he's catching up." The woman's face changed drastically.
"Okay, I agree." Wang Changsheng's face changed. He knew that this was not the time to hesitate, so he agreed.
After speaking, he grabbed the woman's right hand with his right hand and took out an earth escape talisman with his left hand. He crushed it and a large PHSe talisman rushed out, drowning Wang Changsheng and the woman's figure. They disappeared into the ground.
When Wang Xuan and the other three saw this, they scattered and fled in different directions.
Not long after the four left, a giant centipede that was four to five hundred meters long appeared more than a thousand meters above the plain.
At this time, an inch-long black arrowhead was floating in front of the middle-aged man. The head of the arrowhead was facing down.
"Eh, he escaped through the ground." The middle-aged man exclaimed softly. His brows were tightly knitted, and his expression sank. He turned to the beautiful middle-aged woman beside him and asked, "Protector Zhao, do you know how to escape through the ground? It's fine if you have the earth escape talisman. "
"No, I don't have the earth escape talisman." The middle-aged beauty shook her head and turned to ask the disciples behind her, "Who knows the earth escape technique or the earth escape talisman? Come out."
Hearing this, three cultivators wearing blood-red robes immediately walked out.
"Those who have talismans, stand on the left and take out the talismans. Those who know the earth escape technique or the earth escape technique, stand on the right."
Two young men immediately stood on the right, and another young woman stood on the left, holding two H-shaped talismans in her hand.
Seeing this situation, the middle-aged beauty frowned.
"Forget it! Protector Zhao, if worst comes to worst, I'll cast the spell again in three days. Unless they can run ten thousand miles away in three days, they won't be able to escape from me. Of course, if you think they'll escape to somewhere, we can go there first and wait for them. "The middle-aged man waved his hand and said slowly.
"As far as I know, the Tai Qing Palace has a branch in Tan Zhou. At the very least, there is a Core Formation Stage cultivator overseeing it. I'm guessing they may have escaped there." The middle-aged woman pondered for a moment before speaking.
"Okay, then we'll go to the place you said and wait. If we don't see them, I'll cast the Spirit Search Technique again in three days." The middle-aged man said faintly.
"No problem, but Tan Zhou is the territory of the Taiqing Palace. When we get to Tan Zhou, we have to be careful. We can't swagger around like this." The middle-aged woman nodded, then thought of something and said.
"I'm not familiar with the situation in Great Song. As long as we can complete the task, you have the final say."
The middle-aged beauty heard this and nodded with satisfaction. She stomped on the giant centipede's head with her right foot. The giant centipede's four pairs of bloody wings flapped at the same time, turning into a red light and flying in a certain direction.
… …
At this time, Wang Changsheng and the woman appeared more than a hundred feet underground. They were using the power of the Earth Escape Talisman to quickly move forward. When they encountered a hard rock, they would go around it. When they couldn't go around it, they would retreat for a distance and change their direction.
Being underground, Wang Changsheng's Divine Sense was greatly restricted. At most, it could extend five or six hundred feet. The most troublesome thing was that he didn't know where he was now, so he could only blindly run.
Wang Changsheng didn't know that the other party didn't know the Earth Escape Technique or the Earth Escape Technique. Because he was afraid of being caught by the Core Formation Stage cultivator, Wang Changsheng used the power of the talisman to the extreme. In less than a quarter of an hour, he had to use another Earth Escape Talisman.
Wang Changsheng moved forward for nearly a thousand miles. The HSe light screen on the T-watch began to flicker. When the light became dim, he immediately made a gesture with one hand and rushed up with the woman.
The HSe light flashed, and with a "bang" sound, Wang Changsheng broke out of the ground with the woman and appeared in a certain dense forest.
As soon as he appeared on the ground, Wang Changsheng immediately released his Divine Sense and swept around. After he didn't find the breath of a cultivator, he was relieved.
"Are you done shitting?" A cold voice came from behind.
Wang Changsheng heard this and subconsciously turned his head to look. He saw the woman's cheeks were red and she was looking at him with a face full of anger.
Wang Changsheng smiled with an embarrassed expression and quickly let go of his hand.
"Do you know where this is?" The woman's face relaxed and she asked.
"I don't know. Wait, I'll go take a look." After saying this, Wang Changsheng took out a Flying Talisman and slapped it on his body. A pair of green wings suddenly grew out of his back. The green wings gently flapped and Wang Changsheng flew into the sky.
After a quarter of an hour, Wang Changsheng returned to the dense forest and slowly landed on the ground.
"How is it? Do you know where this is?" When the woman saw Wang Changsheng, she couldn't wait to ask.
"This is Muzhou's Gulin County. It's very far from Tan Zhou." Wang Changsheng truthfully replied.
"Very far? No matter how far it is, we still have to go! Doesn't your Taiqing Palace have a branch in Tan Zhou? Once we get there, we'll be safe. "The woman said disapprovingly.
"As for Mie, I want to ask, no matter how far it is, can the other party locate your approximate location?" Wang Changsheng lowered his voice and asked.
"That's not the case. Hmm, if I'm not mistaken, the person tracking me should be using our witch tribe's unique witch spirit technique. If it's a Core Formation stage cultivator, they can only track me for ten thousand miles at most. Moreover, every time they cast the technique, they will consume a lot of blood essence. If it's a Nascent Soul stage cultivator, they can only track me for twenty thousand miles at most. The amount of blood essence consumed is even more." The woman in the palace dress thought for a moment and said.
"If that's the case, I don't think we need to go to Tan Zhou." Wang Changsheng lowered his voice and said something that surprised the woman.
"What? Don't go to Tan Zhou? Then where are we going? Is there a safer place? "The woman's face changed and she said with a frown.
"You just said that even a Yuanying Stage cultivator can only track me for twenty thousand miles at most. That is to say, our safe range is twenty thousand miles away. If we go to Tan Zhou, it will only shorten the distance between us and the pursuer. Instead of that, we might as well go the opposite way and stay away from Tan Zhou. At most, we'll just walk a little more. As long as the other party can't locate you, I can definitely send you to the sect," Wang Changsheng said slowly, his words full of confidence.
Hearing this, the woman thought carefully and found that Wang Changsheng's words were very reasonable, so she nodded and agreed.
