There were two reasons why this person vomited blood again even though he was not hit by the attack.
The first reason was that the death energy had penetrated his lightning defense and hit his back, causing the death energy to seep into his body and affect it greatly. The death energy was an extreme attribute, and it was extremely fatal to all life in the Heavenly Star River. The slightest touch would injure one, so it was untouchable.
The second reason was that this person had a hidden injury on his back that had accumulated a long time ago, and it could not be cured. In other words, the death energy had merged with the hidden injury on his back, causing the injury to worsen, causing him to vomit blood.
This person was anxious. Although he was vomiting blood, he did not dare to slow down. He resisted the death energy with all his might, but he could not stop it from spreading into his body. He could only slow it down. To ensure that the death energy did not invade his organs, he could only do one thing.
Cut his flesh.
Bang!
Without hesitation, this person immediately mobilized the lightning energy and gathered it on his back. Under the powerful cutting and penetrating power of the lightning, the flesh on his back immediately exploded! It was as if he had been slashed countless times. The skin and flesh on his back were a mess, and the death energy that was still lingering on the surface of his body was forcibly expelled.
Flesh and blood splattered everywhere. This was no different from a hero cutting off his wrist. However, the distance between the two parties was quite far, and the chaotic space and the lightning energy in the air blocked his vision. As a result, Lu An could not clearly see what had happened. He only saw the lightning and blood erupting from the target's back, and the target's speed suddenly decreased.
Lu An frowned. Although he did not see what had happened, he could roughly guess. Decreasing speed was not a good thing. Even if the target increased his speed at full speed, Lu An still managed to pull back a certain distance.
Moreover, after his back exploded, even if the target recovered his speed at full speed, his speed would still decrease. Moreover, the eruption could not be sustained forever. After all, even the Four Times Green Lightning's eruption could not last as long as the Demon Gods, let alone someone who did not have an extreme attribute. The target's speed was not much faster than Lu An's, and if this continued, the target's eruption of power would be exhausted soon. After the eruption of power was exhausted, a strong sense of weakness would follow. At that time, he would not even be able to use his normal strength, let alone eruption of power. He would become very weak.
At that time, be it in terms of speed or strength, he would be inferior to Lu An, and there would be no possibility of escaping.
If not for the sudden injury this time, the other party might have pulled away in a spurt of energy and disappeared from Lu An's sight. Therefore, this injury was fatal. If the person chasing him was not Lu An, he would have been declared dead.
Lu An continued to chase, and the hearts of the fleeing people instantly turned cold. This person was not stupid. He immediately realized that he was at a great disadvantage. If this continued, he would not be able to escape from the hands of this Spirit Race person.
Because of this, the target suddenly gritted his teeth! He knew that this was a matter of life and death. He absolutely could not hesitate at this time. Otherwise, he would be dragged to his death by his own arbitrary decision. He had to decisively choose a path. Should he continue to run like this, or … should he strike again and force his opponent to retreat?
If he continued to run, he would have no chance, but if he defeated his opponent, he would still have a chance. However, the distance between the two sides was simply too great. It was impossible for any of his attacks to land on the Spirit Race individual, and it was even harder to force him back. After a moment of hesitation, the man gritted his teeth. No matter what, he had to try everything he could!
Hence …
Boom!!
The man immediately attacked, and countless streaks of lightning appeared! Each streak of lightning was about a hundred feet long, and they all shot towards a large area behind him!
The dazzling streaks of lightning quickly spread out in the air. They were like exploding fireworks as they surged towards Lu An, covering a large area in front of Lu An.
If Lu An went around it, the distance between them would definitely be widened, and he might even be out of sight. However … the fireworks were too scattered. Even a normal Spirit Race person would not be scared off by such a large amount of lightning. Thus, Lu An could not choose to go around it. He could only fly forward.
Whoosh!
Countless streaks of lightning flew towards Lu An. Very quickly, the two sides were less than a thousand feet apart. At that moment, a sudden change occurred!
Boom!!!
All of the streaks of lightning exploded at almost the same time!
The hundred feet of lightning exploded, and the area covered by the lightning was more than a thousand feet! The lightning that filled the sky exploded, immediately covering a huge area, as if forming a river of lightning!
However … the power of this river of lightning was too weak.
It seemed exaggerated, but even a single streak of lightning was not strong, not to mention the power of the lightning after the explosion. Lu An didn't even need to put up a defense and just charged over. In fact, in the plan of the escaping person, the lightning should have exploded after Lu An was engulfed. However, the distance was too far, and it was too difficult to calculate the time of the explosion. Thus, the power released by the lightning was wrong, causing it to explode prematurely.
After engulfing Lu An and then exploding, there was still some threat. After all, he had to bear the power of the explosion. However, now that the explosion had occurred, there was even less of a threat.
However …
Lu An knew that if he went through the river of lightning to chase after the target, the target would have no chance of escaping. Because of this, after Lu An charged directly into the lightning, he immediately stopped inside.
Lu An could not really catch the person. In his opinion, unless there was a Heavenly King Realm cultivator following him, no matter how strong the Heavenly King Realm cultivator was, it was impossible for him to not notice him. After all, the five of them were carrying out their mission through the teleportation formation. If there were other Heavenly Kings through the teleportation formation, it was impossible for him not to sense it.
Moreover, Lu An did not think that there would be a Heavenly King Realm cultivator following him. If there was really a Heavenly King Realm cultivator observing him, it would be useless no matter what he did.
Because of this, he dared to let the target leave.
In the lightning, his speed dropped sharply, and he almost completely stopped after rushing out of the river of lightning. The target in the distance was almost out of sight. Lu An put on a full show, pretending to be a little tired and panting on the spot, as if he did not continue to chase because of exhaustion.
Following that, not long after, Lu An took a short rest and set up a teleportation formation on the spot. The teleportation formation naturally led to the starting point of the previous star. Lu An entered it and prepared to report back.

On the previous star, in a place where the ground had exploded.
Under the huge rock, a blood-colored formation lit up, and a figure walked out. It was Lu An.
After Lu An walked out, the teleportation formation behind him closed. Wang Wei and the other three were all there. They also looked at Lu An and frowned slightly. Since the teleportation formation was closed, it meant that Lu An was the only one who had returned.
It was obvious that Lu An had not been able to catch the person.
"Where is he?" Wang Wei asked.
"He escaped." Lu An's voice was as cold as ever. He was panting as he said, "He has the thunder attribute. Coupled with his explosive power, he is faster than me."
"…"
After hearing Lu An's explanation, although the four of them did not relax, they did not say anything else. After all, if the enemy was of the thunder attribute, it was normal that Lu An could not catch up. In the same realm, extreme attributes could indeed crush non-extreme attributes. However, this was a battle situation. It was very difficult to catch the other party if he wanted to escape.
"We've been waiting for you for a while," Wang Wei said in a deep voice. "Since you're back, we'll interrogate you together."
As she spoke, Wang Wei turned to look at the four people who were tied up.
Four … seriously injured people.
Naturally, Lu An saw that the four of them were covered in blood. Each of them had serious wounds on their bodies that were still bleeding profusely. However, the death energy in their bodies was very thin. Wang Wei and the other three had probably forcefully pulled out the death energy in their bodies to prevent them from dying too quickly.
The four people who were captured were three men and one woman. This woman was the only woman among the six. At this moment, the eyes of the four people were filled with fear and despair. The four of them stared at the five Spirit Race people in front of them. Although they could not understand what the Spirit Race people were saying, every word seemed to cut into their bodies, making them feel that death was getting closer and closer.
"Interrogate them separately," Wang Wei ordered. Then, she looked at Lu An and said, "Look around and learn how we interrogate. In the future, you have to do this too."
