The four of them no longer destroyed the grass, but focused on escaping!
Without using a single sword or a single technique, this was the ability to quickly pass through the waves of grass that were pressing in from all directions!
The distribution of the Killer Grass was irregular. They had to pass through the grass waves at a distance of about ten feet. They had to be faster than the grass waves, without touching or violently opening a path. They were like butterflies flying through flowers. Under such pressure, the joking competition between the four of them in the void of the universe seemed like a game. Only now did each of them show their true skills!
There was never a straight line. It was always in a kind of micro-adjustment during the escape. It was like an irregular zigzag line that was controlled within ten feet. It tested the four of them's fine control ability to the greatest limit!
Under such circumstances, the difference between them was slowly becoming clear!
As a Swordsman who spent almost his entire life on swordsmanship and running, Lou Xiaoyi's Tila was useless here. To him, a slight push from the stars was enough for him to dash hundreds or thousands of miles away.
Qing Xuan's Penetrating the Rainbow and Yin-Yang Tiangang Steps were equally awkward. Within ten feet, there was no rainbow. There was no space to form a rainbow here. It was more like a fart. Yin-Yang Tiangang Steps was used for defense, its speed was limited.
Harelip's secret escape technique was to measure the space between his fingers and palms. However, before he could measure the space, he had to change direction when he encountered the Killer Grass below. Hence, he gave up on using it.
Needless to say, Slug's Ziwei Navigation relied heavily on the Base Star. There were more than a trillion Killer Grass around here. The positioning of the stars had been distorted countless times here. How could he still have the merit of navigating?
The four of them chose the same method at the same time. It was the most basic, the simplest, and the most instinctive movement of a cultivator. It was not only them, all the cultivators who entered the Path of Fragrant Grass had chosen this basic movement without exception!
It was not only a competition of the depth of the mana, but it was also more inclined towards the burst of pulses. Most importantly, the perfect combination of the spiritual power and the mana was always in a kind of change. It was not a big angle deviation, but a small angle left and right …
Running like this, Slug was at the front, Harelip was almost neck to neck with him, and Lou Xiaoyi and Qing Xuan were following closely behind.
It did not mean that the one who was at the front was the strongest. On the contrary, it was precisely because the slug's speed was the slowest in this environment that he could only be at the front. If it were Lou Xiaoyi or Qing Xuan leading the way, it would not take long for the people behind to be unable to catch up. Unless you started to break the killer grass, then the grass wave would track you down. Getting rid of it would be a joke!
The slug couldn't complain anymore. Right now, other than using everything he had to get away from the waves of grass as quickly as possible, everything else he did would just be humiliating himself. He had thought that after hundreds of years of cultivation, even if he did not dare to claim that he was the best of the four, he was still one of the stronger two. Other than the freakish One Ear, he was confident that he could beat the other two!
But now, from the looks of it, he was only on par with his old friend, Harelip. One of his ears was so powerful that it made others despair. Mourning Clothes usually kept a low profile and did not reveal his strength, but when he saw the real thing, he immediately exposed his deep foundation!
What he didn't know was that the other two actually had the time to interact with each other!
"If we stir up all the killer grass in the Fragrant Grass Path, how many of us do you think will be able to get out alive?" Lou Xiaoyi was very curious about this.
Qing Xuan was disdainful. "Lie down on the ground! Don't move or run! How many of us do you think will die? Moreover, the Fragrant Grass Path covers a huge area, comparable to a part of the universe. How long would it take for you to run a full circle? Under this kind of environment and speed, it would take at least three to five years!
Come on, can you not always look at cultivation from the perspective of Xuanyuan's fighting style? Cultivation is actually more about other aspects, the pursuit of Dao! It is not about the satisfaction of killing!
Killing is just a means, not the goal!
You have to thank me. If it was someone else, I would be too lazy to say these things! "
Lou Xiaoyi chuckled. How could he not understand these things? He was just extremely bored.
"Waiting in this kind of place is like playing hide-and-seek! I hope that the Dao will collapse soon. I don't like this place. When I was young, I went into the water to fish, and the shadow left behind was being entangled by countless aquatic plants! "
Qing Xuan felt the same, but the killer grass here was even more terrifying. It was fat and wide like a human body, limitless in length, without a root or a top. If you cut it, the broken part would be the root and the top!
"I estimate that if more than a thousand of them are entangled, we will be wrapped up like rice dumplings! We won't be able to break free! This is the limit! "
Lou Xiaoyi nodded. The thousand stalks on top of the straw were dynamic bundles. Based on their speed of killing and the density of the sea of grass, once they were wrapped up by a thousand stalks of grass, it didn't mean that they couldn't cut through a thousand stalks at the same time. Instead, when they cut through a thousand stalks, more would surround them.
The mana of a cultivator was ultimately limited, but the sea of grass here was limitless. They wouldn't really die. In the end, the cultivators who were wrapped up would be entangled to death. The barbs on the grass would pierce into their bodies and suck them dry. No, there wouldn't even be a dry person left, even their hair would be sucked dry!
This was how the killer grass killed people. Although the power of a single stalk of grass was limited, they had the advantage of being endless! Enough ants could bite an elephant to death!
As they ran, the waves of the sea of grass gradually decreased. The peak of the waves still couldn't catch up with the four of them. In fact, this also meant that this was the limit of the sensing speed of the killer grass!
Lou Xiaoyi and Qing Xuan understood that this result meant that they could fight and run in a fierce battle at the same time, and they might still have some energy left! However, this might not be the case for Slug and Harelip. Wandering on the edge of danger depended on whether the direction of escape was correct, the way the opponent blocked them, whether they were injured, and whether others secretly attacked them!
Slug and Harelip also understood this point, so they were a little depressed!
Before they came, they knew from the elders that the distance between the killer grass was only a few feet. For top Yuanying like them, it was nothing. However, now that the distance between the killer grass had shrunk to ten feet, the difficulty had increased by more than a few times!
This made the two of them have to consider too many factors in their actions. They couldn't be as unscrupulous and unrestrained as they had imagined!
Ten days later, the waves of grass behind them finally calmed down. The four of them didn't get separated because the two guys behind them were unexpectedly strong. This was just a run without an opponent. If they were in a battle and had an opponent to fight, how could they advance and retreat as they wished? At that time, it was almost inevitable that they would run away!
Only after experiencing all this did they completely understand why the elders didn't recommend them to form a big team. In this place, no matter how big the team was, it would be torn apart by the sea of grass. No matter how many people there were, could they be more numerous than the killer grass?
