Above the Bewildering Sea, Yi Tian was quickly flying in a certain direction with Zi Yuan. His speed far exceeded that of an ordinary early stage Yuanying cultivator. Even a mid stage Yuanying cultivator like He Tianxiong, who wasn't good at flying, couldn't catch up.
However, accidents were bound to happen. The Rogue Cultivator Alliance's Elder Kongming Zi was only at the early stage of Yuanying, but he was an expert at tracking. Moreover, he cultivated a special escape technique that allowed him to become one with the sword.
After receiving He Tianxiong's verbal promise, Kongming Zi wouldn't let go of the prey in front of him. His body flashed and he turned into a ray of sword light as he chased after Yi Tian at an unimaginable speed.
Yi Tian, who was rushing in front, suddenly frowned. He released his Divine Sense to check the situation around him. Not long after, he discovered that the pursuers behind him had suddenly split into two, and one of them had suddenly increased its speed and was flying towards him.
At this rate, it would take less than a quarter of an hour for them to catch up to him. Since the other party dared to make the first move, it must be because he knew he had someone with him.
Seeing Yi Tian like this, Zi Yuan knew that the situation wasn't good, so she asked, "Senior Yi, how is it? Are you in trouble?"
Yi Tian solemnly replied, "The people behind us are starting to encircle and intercept us again. One of them is extremely fast. I think he's either a sword cultivator or knows a special escape technique."
Zi Yuan's expression became ugly and she hurriedly asked, "Then can we escape?"
Yi Tian coldly snorted and said disdainfully, "Even so, it's just a temporary measure. I'm afraid it won't last long. Let me use some of my methods to let him know that there is always someone stronger."
After he finished speaking, the spirit qi in his body instantly turned green and red, and his speed suddenly increased by seventy to eighty percent. Although he didn't increase his speed as much as the pursuer behind him, he could maintain a stable speed.
The consumption of spirit force in his body greatly increased, and with the addition of someone, his consumption was 30% higher than usual.
Ziyuan, who was being held in his arms, also felt her vision blur. The whistling wind in front of her became even stronger. If it weren't for Yi Tian's protective shield, she would have been blinded by the wind at this time.
Kongming Zi, who was chasing from behind, also had a look of amazement on his face. Using the Man and Sword as One technique could temporarily increase one's speed, but after all, it was still considered a secret technique and could not be maintained for long.
His Divine Sense sensed that the other party seemed to have suddenly increased their speed. Their speed didn't seem to be slow either. The most frightening thing was that after chasing for nearly a quarter of an hour, the speed of the two people in front didn't show any signs of slowing down.
Kongming Zi estimated that his Man and Sword Becoming One Technique would only last for an hour at most. Even if he chased after them, he would have used up most of his spiritual energy, and it would be useless for him to entangle them.
Then, he slowed down slightly and sent a message to He Tianxiong, who was behind him.
At this time, Yi Tian found that he was only one or two hundred nautical miles away from the people behind him. However, the other party was obviously unable to keep up and began to slow down. As for the other pursuer, he had already left the range of his Divine Sense. In such a situation, he had to adjust his strategy.
He took out a large number of spirit stones and held them in his hand to quickly replenish his spiritual energy. Those spirit stones were originally shining with light, but in less than three breaths of time, they turned into ordinary stones.
This was the first time that Zi Yuan had seen someone absorb spirit stones like this. She saw one waste spirit stone after another fall from Yi Tian's hand. In less than a quarter of an hour, he had consumed tens of thousands of spirit stones.
However, the effect was obvious. The speed of the two of them didn't slow down at all, and they gradually left Kongming Zi behind. When the distance between the two sides was three hundred kilometers, he suddenly discovered that Kongming Zi was once again chasing in his direction.
It seemed that the other party was also afraid of losing him, so he didn't care so much and urged the secret technique to continue chasing. In this way, Yi Tian was secretly happy. The range of this person's Divine Sense was about three hundred kilometers, which was one of the stronger Divine Senses among the early Yuanying cultivators. However, it was still quite lacking compared to his Divine Sense, which had a range of five hundred kilometers.
The other party's weakness was his own strength. As long as he used this point to get rid of the other party, it wouldn't be difficult. Moreover, the other pursuer was already out of the range of his Divine Sense. It seemed that he had long been left behind.
After ridiculing in his heart, Yi Tian didn't slow down. He then took out a map of the Bewildering Sea Area and scanned it with his Divine Sense to confirm his approximate location.
After coming out of Neon Island, he didn't look at the direction. At that time, he only thought of escaping. Fortunately, when he looked at it now, he realized that the direction he was heading towards was not much different from the way he came from.
However, the tail behind him was also annoying. He couldn't shake it off several times and always maintained a range of about three hundred kilometers. Once there was a sign of distance, the other party would suddenly accelerate and maintain the edge of the range that his Divine Sense could detect.
After running all the way, Zi Yuan, who was in his arms, fell asleep. However, Yi Tian knew that she was temporarily in a meditative state to maintain the spiritual power in her body in case of an emergency.
After staying like this for a day and a night, Yi Tian was still unable to get rid of the other party. However, he continued to maintain the supply of spiritual power along the way, and he was always in a 70% full state of spiritual energy.
While flying, Zi Yuan's eyes suddenly opened. She reached out and took out a communication jade tablet. Then, she immersed her Divine Sense into it and read the message above. In less than three breaths, she said to Yi Tian with a happy face, "Aunt Lan is here to pick me up. Let's go and meet her now."
Hearing this news, Yi Tian heaved a sigh of relief as if a heavy burden had been lifted from his shoulders, "Tell me the exact location, we'll head over right away."
After ten breaths, he saw the light that was originally flying straight suddenly change direction and fly in that direction.
Kongming Zi, who was chasing behind, suddenly discovered that the other party had changed their route. He was slightly puzzled, and then anxiously took out the communication jade tablet and sent a message to He Tianxiong. The sudden change was definitely not a good thing. The worst possibility was that the other party's reinforcements had arrived, or that they wanted to rely on the terrain to hide.
If it was the latter, it would just take a little more time. However, if reinforcements came, then this time, it would be like drawing water with a bamboo basket. Kongming Zi had put in a lot of effort in this chase, but in the end, he didn't get anything, so he was unwilling.
Sure enough, an hour later, Kongming Zi discovered that the other party had actually flown three hundred kilometers away and stopped moving. Based on his experience in the martial arts world, he hurriedly spread out his Divine Sense to investigate. After three breaths, Kongming Zi felt cold sweat on his forehead. In the air in front of him was the Cloud Battleship of Heaven's Will City. There were only three City Lords who could pilot this kind of battleship, but no matter which one it was, he definitely wouldn't be able to get away with it.
Originally, this matter was just for the sake of He Tianxiong. There was no need to directly fall out with Heaven's Will City and even involve the Rogue Cultivator Alliance. Then, Kongming Zi decisively turned around and left to discuss with He Tianxiong.
