Chapter 42 - Escape (1/2)

The two Shui Tu Clan Qi Practitioners are back on me again!

Zhong Yue looked toward them, and he couldn't help but ground his teeth as he dashed forward even with increased fervor. In these ten days, he had lived his life embroiled in hardship as he had to tame and absorb the excess beast god essence while shaking off the pursuit of the two Shui Tu Clan Qi Practitioners.

Although he was moving with the speed of a Xiang Dragon, it was impossible to maintain this speed for a prolonged period; it would not take long for the two Shui Tu Clan Qi Practitioners to catch up with him.

Moreover, the most dangerous part is not the two Shui Tu Clan Qi Practitioner, but the essence of the Beast God released by the Beast God's inner core. This forced him to keep on visualizing the Sui Sovereign without a break, or else this change would become irreversible.

This is even more insufferable than the time he jumped and climbed up the cliffs. He had to keep on training, avoid the pursuit, and even keep on visualizing during his sleep. All of these imposed a significant burden on his body and perseverance!

He could persist for the first two days, but he was on the verge of breaking down on the third day. As a result, he could not control himself and slept in a cave while disregarding the thoughts of visualizing and his two Shui Tu Clan pursuers.

Luckily, he had Xin Huo's guidance. Xin Huo woke him up from his sleep and kept on badgering him not to forget to visualize. With his guidance, Zhong Yue managed to prevent himself from really turning into a Xiang Dragon and also continue to evade his pursuers.

After these ten added days of suffering, Zhong Yue could enter the state of "subconscious visualization."

This so-called state of "subconscious visualization" is where one would subconsciously visualize without the intention of doing so, which is also the level achieved by Li Xiuniang.

However, Li Xiuniang only achieved this state after years and years of practice, but Zhong Yue had forcibly reached this level through ten days of hardship.

However, in order to maintain the visualization even during sleep, one would have to have achieved the state of "unconscious visualization," of which the difficulty cannot be overstated.

The state of "unconscious visualization" was much more complicated than the state of "subconscious visualization." Even after constantly being reminded by Xin Huo, Zhong Yue could only intermittently enter the state of "unconscious visualizing," but he could only maintain the state for a brief period as he would naturally stop visualizing when he entered deep sleep.

These over ten days were a total nightmare for him, but he managed to keep it up with his strong will. Besides, his psyche prowess had increased rapidly under the pressure and stress!

Now, his psyche ocean had expanded to almost three thousand mus, and he had purified his psyche immeasurably!

These two Shui Tu Clan Qi Practitioners are really annoying!

Zhong Yue clenched his teeth as he thought. Currently, as he improved, the rate at which he absorbed the essence that was leaked from the Beast God's inner core in his inner mind approached the rate of discharge!

At this rate, after a few days, he would finally be able to absorb the remaining essence and become a human again!

The two Qi Practitioners split up?

Zhong Yue sensed that the two Qi Practitioners had split, one continued to pursue him while the other one moved further and further away toward another direction.

Strange, why did they split?

Zhong Yue squinted, and he felt very curious, These two have been chasing after me for a long time, it would be even harder to catch me with only one person… Not good, there's water vapor in front… I see!

As he continued running, a vast river with ravaging currents appeared.

The river was wide, and the water inside was like a torrential current!

The river flowed from one place and along the hill where Zhong Yue was standing now to the other side. This meant that the other Shui Tu Clan Qi Practitioner did not go away but instead, planned to intercept Zhong Yue at the other side of the river!

On the other hand, the other one would continue to chase after him from the back in order to corner him at the river!

Zhong Yue squinted and looked at the downstream of the river and saw tribes after tribes with many boats docked at the side.

Not good ... this is the Wei River and the Shui Tu Clan's territory! There should be more Qi Practitioners over here. If I am cornered here today, there might be no more chance of escape anymore!

Zhong Yue lamented, Downstream is the direction of the Shui Tu Clan's tribe whereas upstream and my back has two Shui Tu Clan Qi Practitioners chasing me. The only way for me to escape is to fight my way through the opposite before the two Qi Practitioners corner me!

On top of the vigorous waves of the Wei River, a Qi Practitioner dashed toward Zhong Yue while surfing the waves of the Wei River!

At the same moment, the Qi Practitioner behind Zhong Yue also increased his speed and approached quickly.

Zhong Yue did not hesitate, and he dashed across the river toward the opposite. The Xiang Dragon speed was naturally fast, and he threaded on the water while sprinting!

"Wei River is the main base of us Shui Tu Clan. You are still thinking of escaping after stepping into this place?"

A burst of laughter could be heard, and the Qi Practitioner on the river sped quickly toward Zhong Yue while splitting the strong waves apart! He then said: "We, the Shui Tu Clan are the king of this river!"

Zhong Yue gritted his teeth and unleashed all his strength to run even faster. At that moment, his speed had once again broken through the sound barrier, but the waves grew even more tumultuous. As Zhong Yue reached the center of the river, the Qi Practitioner was already in front of him!
