Chapter 343 - To The Immortals League (1/2)
Out of the city, it was just plains and not a single mountain or river. Xiao Chen chased for hundreds of miles to the west. Under the twilight, Xiao Chen saw a big mountain appearing in front of him, and a black spot as well. It was Ling Ruoxu who was moving at the maximum speed on his sword.
Coincidentally, the last time he and Luo Shangyan were being pursued by the Ling family, it was also when the twilight was bleak. The difference was that this time, he was the pursuer.
“Old b*stard! Don’t think of escaping!”
Xiao Chen bellowed and pushed the sword flying technique to its limit. Ling Ruoxu noticed that he had caught up, so without thinking, he threw a few seal talisman directly to the back. Flames shot up to the sky, and there were endless loud booms. A large forest underneath was instantly destroyed.
Xiao Chen avoided the seal talisman attack and sneered. “I, Xiao Chen, have been pursued every day since I entered the Violet Manor. I didn’t imagine that there’ll be a day when I am the pursuer! Die, old b*stard!” Then he slashed him with his blade, blood-red blade radiance looked more dazzling than the sunset glow.
Ling Ruoxu hastily avoided, although his current cultivation was slightly higher than Xiao Chen, he would not badger with him at this moment. He had to rush to the Immortals’ League as soon as possible and publicized Xiao Chen’s evil deeds to the world. The world’s Orthodox Path would sanction this wicked being! Thinking about this, he speeded up and rushed to the front like a bolt of lightning.
Xiao Chen also speeded up, and the two were like chasing the wind and running after the lightning. This continued till the next morning. There were several times along the way whereby Xiao Chen almost got him. But at every critical moment, Ling Ruoxu would always take a pill and then escape again.
However, Xiao Chen did not have much Energy Pill. After a night of chasing, he was feeling the depletion in his True Energy. Now he finally understood how much bitter hatred his pursuers were feeling when he was fleeing and taking Energy Pill at the same time.
“Old b*stard! I’ll see how many pills you have!”
Ling Ruoxu turned over and saw that he was already panting. He sneered and said, “My Energy Pill is enough to support me to the Immortals’ League. The Orthodox Path people of the five continents have already gathered in Tianyuan City. Ahaha! Kiddo, you shall wait to be drawn and quartered!” Then he ran forward again.
Xiao Chen finally stopped, he panted and panted as he watched Ling Ruoxu’s figure getting smaller and smaller which finally turned into a black spot and disappeared. He knew that Ling Ruoxu was not bluffing. The different sects of the Orthodox Path had already gathered and Muxue was still locked in the Immortals’ League Immortal’s Prison. With Muxue’s temper, he was afraid that she would die for him. He immediately yelled, “Guifeng!”
“Here!”
A thirty-foot-tall devil shadow appeared out of thin air, with a huge blade, riding a magical ride, his eyes were red and bloody, and the armor emitted rolls of black Qi, he looked terrifying.
“Go get that old b*stard in front and smash him into pieces!”
“Yes, master! Master, come up!” After that, Guifeng stretched out his big hand and took Xiao Chen onto the horseback. The devil ride soared, and its four hooves were like on fire as it ran forward chasing after Ling Ruoxu.
“Da-da! Da-da! Da-da!”
Even in midair, the sound of horseshoes could be heard. Ling Ruoxu was fleeing with all his might when he heard the sound and at the same time, felt an extremely petrifying aura nearing him. He turned and saw a thirty-foot-tall shadow. He was instantly petrified. He cried, “What! What the hell is this!”
“The general is here, hand over your life now!”
Guifeng shouted and slashed with his blade. A 100-foot long black radiance soared out of his blade as if it was tearing open space. Ling Ruoxu was caught unguarded, he was immediately thrown out by the force and vomited blood.
“Very good! General, kill him for me!”
“Yes, master!” Guifeng shouted and attacked again at Ling Ruoxu. This attack shook heaven and earth, and it was meant to take Ling Ruoxu’s head off. Ling Ruoxu was already shitting in his pants. He cast an incantation in a hurry, “Blood a Thousand Miles!” “Shoosh!” He turned into a blood radiance disappeared in front of Xiao Chen.
It was the blood escaping technique of the Blood Yin Incantation of Ling family. By sacrificing half of his life force, he could escape thousands of miles away. Xiao Chen looked at the direction in which he disappeared, he said in a low voice, “Go!”
After chasing for 2 hours, they finally caught up with Ling Ruoxu’s that old b*stard again. But the speed of Guifeng had slowed down a lot. Presumably, the General of Soul had some restrictions on it. Every time it came out, it could not be too long, and the energy consumption could not be too large.
Hearing the sound of the hooves that followed, the last line of defense in Ling Ruoxu’s heart was almost collapsed. The sound of the horse was getting closer and closer, just like a reminder from the underworld, but he could not perform the blood escaping technique once more.
“Hand over your life!”
Guifeng yelled and another attack went, this attack was magnificent, even the hills below it started to shake. Ling Ruoxu was horror-stricken. At this moment, there was to go in heavens or earth, he could only pray to heaven, “This person had wiped out my Ling family! God, please open your eyes! Protect me, Ling Ruoxu from this death roll!”
As his voice fell, a sacred thunder came from the nine heavens above. As a bolt of lightning flashed, with a loud bang, Guifeng’s blade was hit out of its intended direction. The big blade went at a hill below and soon smashed it into pieces.
Ling Ruoxu escaped from death. He hurriedly read out an incantation and once again turned into a flash and fled. Xiao Chen glared, he pointed two fingers to the sky, “Bloody God! When my Three Pure Sect was slaughtered by the Ling Family, why did you not open your eyes! Ah…!” After a long scream, he pointed in front and said, “Go get him!”
He would kill Ling Ruoxu today definitely, even if that old b*stard did not personally participate in the slaughter of the Three Pure Sect. But if he did not make the order, even if Ling Yuanshan had a hundred courageous hearts, he would not dare not go to the Human World!
After running for a moment, one could hear a horse neighing. The magic ride stood up on its hind legs. Guifeng’s chest moved up and down. He was in shortness of breath, presumably because he had to defend the immortal lightning from heaven just now.
Xiao Chen calmed down, guessing that the General of Soul’s life force had an end too. He could not let his Soul power overdraft. He said, “General, go back to rest; I will chase that old b*stard!”
“Then, I will take leave first!” With a “Whoosh”, Guifeng disappeared into thin air.
Xiao Chen stepped on his flying sword and went after Ling Ruoxu again. After two hours running and chasing, it was noon. A big city appeared in front of Ling Ruoxu and he was overjoyed. It was Tianyuan City.
However, although it was noon, Tianyuan City was covered with strange gloomy clouds that blocked the sun. Especially in the west, the clouds were black and thick, and it was like a huge black hole that can swallow all things. It was in the direction of the Immortals’ League.
The Tianyuan City of today seemed to be expecting something huge. The whole city had layers of restriction set up by the Immortals’ League and the Daoist League of the Five Continents together. The cultivators could not fly or ride on their swords in the city. The secluded seniors from all over the five continents were also slowly making their way to the city.
Ling Ruoxu landed outside of the gate of the east city. He disregarded the two teams of city guards stopping him and desperately rushed into the city. Because sword riding was not allowed in the city, Xiao Chen landed as well. With the Blood Lotus Demon Blade in hand, he rushed into the city. The two teams of city guards were stunned when they saw him coming with an aggressive, murderous aura and they shouted, “Who are you! Stop right there!” As they spoke, they closed up the city gate.
