Chapter 104 Trapped like Mice and Rats (2/2)
After finishi+ng their meals, Daniel and the rest went to ask around, and it didn't takestories
According to one in particular, near the Tiyar kingdom, there was a forest Inside this forest, just a couple of roup of hostile wood elementals had been discovered
Apparently, those elementals were vicious, and had responded to hu the noble ambassadors of the Tiyar empire
In an attempt to save the captured explorers, the ee war on the evil races that inhabited the forest
To Daniel's current party, this neas irrelevant, but to hi for
After being separated for a full day, Daniel and the rest met back in the restaurant where they had eaten before
”and they escaped fro to list all the events he had heard in the past day
”Wood elementals” Muttered Daniel to himself ”It's definitely them”
”How do you know?” Asked Weiss with a curious tone
Daniel looked back at him and said ”Because elementals are peaceful in nature I'd rather believe that they were attacked because of so they possessed That's not the first ti”
”Okay, so what now?” Asked Roland while cleaning his well tri to find the a victory They'll never admit that they are still on the chase”
”I have an idea”

One one better for Daniel's group While it was true that Roley had roup of pursuers, the empire still had a few tactics prepared
When Roley and I couple in the streets of a populated city, the Tiyar eroups in the cities closest to the one in which their actual target were suspected
At the same time, they had filled in the spaces between cities, and formed an impressive net of spies and troops
Each party had spiritual cultivators in the with someone adept in spatial essence
Roley and the rest had found this out in the worst way possible Thinking they were safe once left the area, they had tried to teleported in the distance, but unfortunately, a party was stationed within a nearby city
Their teleportation had been felt by this party, and once again, the chase had started
This had gone for awhile, and every tied to slip out of the e party, and out of their reach at soain
If that wasn't enough, every time they were found out, the extre net to roup, this felt like they were a fish in the sea which was being chased by anet
In the past ht Mostly because they were the only two adept in spatial essence within the group, and if they didn't e to escape the pursuit before their spiritual essence ran out, in the end, they would reach a point where they would both have no spiritual essence left
At that point, not only would they be unable to teleport to safety, but they would also be unable to defend the started to feel the sent of so on in their territory A few skirmishes had even started because of a few local powerful cultivators, which had stopped various of these odd parties as they cah their territories
It had been a long roup, and Roley and Ed
Unfortunately, for as useful as teleportation and portals were, the traces they left were too obvious So obvious in fact, that if someone was present to spectate to a spiritual cultivator's teleportation, they would be able to feel the connection between the two point in space, and easily be able to use the sa connection to follow them on the other side
That feeble connection in space was called Spatial Residue, and it was thewasn't considered the best way of escaping, especially when being followed by other spiritual cultivator adept in the use of spatial essence
The two essences that were considered the best to escape were, ironically enough, earth essence and water essence
When Roley had entered the pocket diht before Daniel was imprisoned, he had immediately understood what he meant when he said that ”he had a surprise for him”
Good part of the two and a half years that they had spent apart, he had spent in the core of the earth ele earth essence
Unfortunately, using earth essence to escape would only work if others weren't adept in the use of earth essence the as someone was adept in the use of earth essence, and possessed a higher cultivation that Roley's, they could easily end up being trapped underground
At that point, nobody would be able to leave the pocket dimension, and they would be easily captured
The ones earing Daniel's pocket diart and Hei shop in order to pretend to be customers in search of a new martial attire
The teren't as cold and prepared as Roley was, so, at so discovered
The , and teleported i the chase once again
