Soul Pursuit
"You finally admit it."
Zhongli Huatian smiled and followed Ning Qi.
His heart was filled with confidence. Ning Qi couldn't escape from him at all, so Zhongli Huatian didn't follow too closely. However, after Ning Qi left the inn, he disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
At the same time, Ning Qi was already rushing towards the city gate at lightning speed. Although he did not know why the Forbidden Dried Bones Land would delay their return to Dongxuan, Ning Qi just wanted to get away from Zhongli Huatian first.
"…"
Zhongli Huatian looked around but did not see any trace of Ning Qi.
Rolling his eyes speechlessly, Zhongli Huatian suddenly shouted in a low voice, "Bind!"
Just as Ning Qi was about to reach the city gate, a strand of black hair flew out of his body. In an instant, it transformed into a giant ape that was more than thirty meters tall. Immediately, the crowd on the street panicked. Some of the more knowledgeable locals of the capital retreated a hundred meters after seeing the giant black ape. Their faces were filled with fear.
The soldiers who were rushing over after noticing the commotion had the same reaction as the others when they saw the giant black ape. None of them dared to get close.
As soon as the giant black ape appeared, it reached out to grab Ning Qi.
Ning Qi felt a cold gust of wind behind him. He did not look back but took out the Dragon Slayer Saber and calmly slashed behind him. With this slash, Ning Qi was instantly revealed and left his invisible state.
Boom!
The sharp saber Qi directly slashed the giant black ape's arm, but it did not cause any damage. Instead, it penetrated through the ape's body.
"Is this giant ape formed from a Soul? Yes! Zhongli Huatian must have secretly planted a Soul Seed in my body! "
A cold light flashed in Ning Qi's eyes. This was the only explanation. Otherwise, how could the other party find Ning Qi who was already invisible?
At this moment, Ning Qi had already reached the city gate.
A soldier was about to stop Ning Qi, but he was suddenly slapped on the head from behind. The soldier turned around angrily, only to find his immediate superior standing behind him.
"Did you see the Demonic Ape?"
"Yes."
"Then you still dare to interfere in this matter? Whose Soul is the Demonic Ape? Have you forgotten? "
"Ah! It's that … "
"Do you understand now? It's best that we don't interfere in his affairs. Even if we have to help him, we shouldn't! They won't appreciate it! "
"Boss, I understand now."
The soldier had a look of enlightenment on his face. After that, everyone allowed Ning Qi to directly escape through the city gate. The black ape didn't dodge, either, and simply passed through the wall.
One man and one ape, one chasing, one fleeing. In the blink of an eye, Ning Qi had fled thousands of miles and entered a forest.
"You can't escape."
A soft whisper seemed to ring in his ear.
Ning Qi turned his head to look and discovered that Zhongli Huatian was only two feet away from him. Zhongli Huatian could suppress him at any time, but Ning Qi didn't understand why Zhongli Huatian didn't have any intention of making a move.
With a sigh, Ning Qi stopped and looked at Zhongli Huatian. At this moment, the giant black ape leaped up and stomped towards Zhongli Huatian. When it was about to step on Zhongli Huatian, its figure suddenly transformed and entered Zhongli Huatian's body.
"This is your divine soul?"
Ning Qi asked calmly.
"Yes."
Zhongli Huatian nodded.
"I didn't expect the divine soul to have such a wonderful use. I'm afraid that even the Dou Zuns of Dongxuan don't seem to understand this technique. Or do I have to be a peak Dou Zun like him to have such a technique?"
Ning Qi was secretly surprised.
"Give me the Demon Tone Bell."
Zhongli Huatian extended his hand and smiled.
"No."
Ning Qi refused.
"Are you really not afraid that I'll kill you?"
Zhongli Huatian was a little curious.
"If you wanted to kill me, you would have done so long ago. I'm curious, why didn't you just suppress me and interrogate me? Maybe I couldn't endure your interrogation and gave you the Demonic Tone Bell. Who knows, I might have given it to you."
Ning Qi smiled.
"If I attack you, the time it takes for me to become a Saint will be extended by over ten years. It's not worth it."
Zhongli Huatian said with a sincere face.
"If that's the case, let me go. I'll give you the Demon Tone Bell after I'm done playing with it. What do you think?"
Ning Qi smiled.
"It seems that you really know the origin of the Demon Tone Bell? If you tell me how you know, maybe I'll let you go. "
Zhongli Huatian smiled faintly.
"There's no need to let me go. I'll take my leave first."
Ning Qi smiled slightly and threw a strengthened version of the World Exterminating Dragon Slaying Bullet at Zhongli Huatian. The bullet exploded the moment it appeared.
Ning Qi had been prepared for this. In that instant, he had already flown several hundred meters away. Moreover, he had reverted to his original form and transformed into his Titan True Body that was six meters tall. The shockwaves of the incomparably violent explosion still fiercely struck Ning Qi's back and sent him flying.
The place where Zhongli Huatian had been standing was filled with dust. This dust formed a mushroom cloud the size of a small mountain.
"Hiss! I was almost blown to death … "
After being hit by the World Exterminating Dragon Slaying Bullet, Zhongli Huatian's 3.5 million HP was left with less than 200,000 HP. This was just the outer shockwave.
If Ning Qi was at the center, he would have been vaporized!
"Even if he's not dead, he should be seriously injured, right?"
Ning Qi thought to himself. Without stopping, he headed straight for the Ancient Barren Land. Since the Forbidden Land of Dried Bones did not send him back to Dongxuan at the appointed time, Ning Qi had enough time to pay a visit to the ruins of the War God Hall. Perhaps he could find a few more Bronze Puppets.
If Zhongli Huatian did not die and continued to chase after him, the messy forces in the Ancient Barren Land could provide Ning Qi with a better cover.
After all, the tentacles of the Heaven and Earth Pavilion had not reached here yet.
…
The mushroom cloud dissipated.
A huge pit that was three hundred feet long appeared on the ground. In the center of the pit stood a giant black ape. Upon closer inspection, one could see that the black ape was not a physical body. Zhongli Huatian stood in the center of the black ape's body. He seemed to be in a sorry state at the moment. His body was covered with wounds, and one could even see the white bones on his cheeks.
His originally ordinary face now looked like a demon that had descended into the world.
"Looks like I'll have to delay my Sainthood for more than ten years."
Zhongli Huatian's face was cold as he muttered to himself. Then, he kept the Devil Ape that was formed by his spirit back into his body and flew toward the direction where Ning Qi escaped.
