Chapter 69 - Survival by Death
"This …" Although Lei Yang was surprised, he was pleasantly surprised in his heart. The danger had temporarily been resolved by accident, and the feeling of pride and excitement in his heart, couldn't help but rise once again.
He had the feeling that this time's pursuit might be dangerous, but he was able to survive. This caused him to feel as if he had won a blessing in disguise.
"d.a.m.n it, what kind of monster is this, he's going to never end … …" As they walked forward, Shan Gui scolded them fiercely.
In fact, the hearts of Su Sheng Qin and his female cultivator companion from the Heaven Gate Sect were even more shocked.
Heaven Gate Sect was known for its speed. Although the two of them were only at the middle stage of the ninth level, their speed had long surpa.s.sed cultivators of the same level.
The freak they were chasing was actually not able to catch up to him with the help of their secret technique. They had no idea what kind of method he used to catch him, but in the blink of an eye, he appeared again in the distance. This was truly unbelievable.
"How did he do it?" Su Sheng Qin widened his eyes and asked his companion in a daze.
"Maybe he has some special magical equipment …?" The female cultivator was also stunned, feeling the same shock in her heart.
However, just like that, a day pa.s.sed in the blink of an eye.
Behind him, Shan Gui and the others... The three of them had long since felt a strong sense of grievance in their hearts as they pursued this day. Not only was this guy abnormally fast, even his luck seemed to be extremely good.
From the looks of it, his cultivation base was far below theirs, and yet he was just a young cultivator that they could not catch up to. The feeling of being able to see, but not being able to hit, and having all the strength in their body, but not being able to use, had thoroughly caused the three of them to feel extremely stifled.
In reality, as the three of them continued to cast their secret techniques, the backlash they suffered seemed to have reached the limit of their pursuit. As for the guy in front, he seemed to be fine and was still alive, running for his life.
This made them fall into a state of madness. In the end, they seemed to have forgotten their original intention to pursue him. They only wanted to catch up to him and burn his bones to ashes to vent the anger in their hearts.
Following the unceasing pursuit, Lei Yang had already gradually distanced himself far away from the mountain range, and gradually neared to the plains on the other side of the mountain range.
Lei Yang did not choose. He was clear that there was a strong sense of danger from the Maple Forest in front of him, but he had no choice but to continue onward.
He wondered if he could use this dense and vast maple forest to shake off the three powerful enemies behind him.
The three people behind him continued to chase him, causing the murderous aura to grow stronger and stronger. In fact, even the female Heaven Gate Sect Cultivator from the Righteous Dao Sect had lost the air of an Immortal, her eyes completely bloodshot and her expression vicious.
However, Shan Gui, who was chasing from behind, saw that Lei Yang was quickly approaching the vast expanse of Maple Forest, his eyes immediately filled with anxiety for the first time.
Originally, he wanted to rely on his cultivation to forcefully kill Lei Yang, but when the Maple Forest appeared, he became extremely anxious, not caring about the consequences of hurting his own foundation, he forcefully used a secret technique, causing his entire being to look like a sharp sword that cut through the void, instantly rus.h.i.+ng forward with an indescribable speed, chasing after them.
As he moved forward, he suddenly shouted, "Su Sheng Qin, hurry up and stop him. Don't let him into that forest."
Shan Gui thought about how, not long ago, he had just escaped from a place that looked like a land of demons, and it seemed like he had narrowly escaped death by running out of there. Even if it was for the Dragonheart Fruit, he was absolutely unwilling to step even half a step there again.
Although Su Sheng Qin didn't understand why Shan Gui was so anxious, a senior from the sect had told him before that in this secret realm, the plains were known as deathlands, and the danger level was far greater than the mountain ranges.
Seeing that Lei Yang was about to enter, they naturally did not want to follow him, so the two of them looked at each other and used their secret techniques, hoping to catch Lei Yang before he escaped into the Maple Forest!
The speed that the three of them exchanged didn't care about the cost as they got closer and closer to Lei Yang.
Shan Gui released an earth-shaking roar in his anxiety, causing the skeleton patterns all over his body to suddenly fly out of his body. The s.p.a.ce surrounding him made his surroundings look like an inescapable h.e.l.l.
As countless skeletal patterns flew out from his body, a black mist that was several times thicker than before began to swirl around him. It emanated a ghastly, ghastly aura that caused one's hair to stand on end.
Seemingly at the same time that Shan Gui took action, Heaven Gate Sect's Su Sheng Qin and his companion female cultivator, in a moment of desperation, both of them simultaneously formed hand seals at the same time.
The two of them were performing different hand signs. One of them was filled with masculine power while the other was filled with feminine power. Although there were big differences, it formed a very practiced fit.
With this combination, the two of them immediately formed an alliance, causing an illusionary mountain to appear between them.
The mountain was half bright and half dim, as if it represented the poles of both Yin and Yang. When it appeared, it emanated a shocking gravitational force.
There were two different types of power within the gravitational power. As they fused together, an enormous black hole formed in the middle of the mountain.
"Yin Yang Heaven Gate, return!" When Su Sheng Qin's finger landed, he released a light reprimand from his mouth. The black hole unexpectedly extended out without end and the terrifying suction force from it swept towards Lei Yang frantically.
"Ghost sect Tao technique!"
"The Dao of Yin and Yang in Heaven Gate Sect!"
The three of them hurriedly looked at each other. When they felt the powerful magic techniques from each other, their pupils violently contracted. The initial contempt was long gone, whether it was their eyes or the bottom of their hearts.
As a result, those who obtained the Dragonheart Fruit gained the initiative. Whether it was fighting or running away, they also gained the confidence to do so. But now, it seemed that both of them had underestimated each other's strength.
Just as Lei Yang was about to rush into the forest in the plains, he suddenly felt that the three people behind him had suddenly been stimulated and became unusually berserk.
At that instant, the danger that was not quite as strong as before suddenly soared crazily. In a split-second, it reached its peak, and it couldn't help but tense up all over his body, causing his hair to stand on end and all his cells to seem as if they were going to scream.
Following the devouring of the enormous skull pattern, the black hole of the Yin Yang Mountain approached at an extremely fast speed. Lei Yang could even feel that his own speed had started to slow down.
He knew that whether it was the giant mouth of the skeleton or the black hole with a powerful suction force, if he fell into any of them, he would die without a complete corpse, his soul dead.
However, at this moment, the two special abilities that were used previously were not effective at all. Feeling the danger getting stronger and stronger, and the strong suction force of the black hole pulling Lei Yang back, it was at this moment that Lei Yang panicked.
"Motherf * cker, are we really going to die here?" Lei Yang's heart was in turmoil, he cursed under his breath, his cultivation was circulating frantically, but he was still pushed back by the powerful suction.
As he laughed, he shook the storage ring in his hand, and a Dragonheart Fruit instantly appeared in his hand. Without any hesitation, he shoved this Dragonheart Fruit into his mouth.
The Dragonheart Fruit melted once it entered his mouth, and suddenly, an indescribably majestic force of Qi and blood spread out from Lei Yang's heart in an instant. In the blink of an eye, it had formed into a boundless sea of blood and Qi three meters around Lei Yang.
The vital energy and blood contained dense life force and did not have any offensive power, but in a short period of time, they seemed to have formed a vacuum within ten meters of Lei Yang, which was comparable to a strong defense.
It was also at this time that the boundless energy and blood dispersed, and the powerful suction force that Lei Yang felt had seemingly been cut off, instantly allowing him to regain his freedom.
At the same time, the b.u.t.terflies under his feet took steps forward, and that kind of special short distance teleportation finally happened again … Activate!
"No …." As the two powerful techniques failed, the black mist in the sky roiled, Shan Gui was the first to walk out, a roar of unwillingness coming out from his mouth.
Even though he was very powerful, he still showed a deep expression of exhaustion after this strike. It was clear that this technique consumed a great deal of energy.
However, he had no choice but to accept this reality. Looking at the blazing forest in front of him, Shan Gui felt that he could not muster up the courage to step in again.
At almost the same time, Su Sheng Qin and his companions also arrived with a loud bang. After stopping, the two of them looked at Feng Lin in front of them at the same time.
"You all … Do you see him? He … That was … Swallowing it?! " Su Sheng Qin's female cultivator companion immediately stopped and looked at Su Sheng Qin as if she had seen a ghost, and asked with uncertainty.
"What a troublesome freak!" But what a pity, even if he didn't explode from the dragon heart fruit's qi and blood, he probably wouldn't be able to walk out of this forest alive.
It's just that he wasted three rare and precious fruits for nothing. What a pity! " At this time, Shan Gui seemed to have thought of the previous scene, a look of heartache flashed past his eyes, as he helplessly said this, his tone filled with regret.
However, before he left, he warned the two: "Don't keep it in mind. Although the Dragonheart Fruit is rarely seen, it's more important that you don't want to provoke the life of the creatures in the forest.
As a fellow sect member, I am only kind enough to remind you to wait. However, whether or not you want to enter that place is not up to me to decide. "
They firmly believed that there must be some extremely dangerous place that even Shan Gui was not willing to enter.
