Chapter 177: Escape
"Fellow Daoist Li, you've made me wait so hard this time!" Somewhere in the Bottle Sea, six late-stage Transcendent cultivators were flying their swords and escaping quickly. While escaping, some of them did not forget to complain to the people next to them.
Li Lian looked back at the dark mass behind him, almost all of which were flying monsters in the late stage of Transcendent. He felt a little scared and sighed that he was unlucky!
He had been sent by the sect to manage the store in the Third Heaven for several months. He broke through the late stage of Transcendent two months ago. In the Third Heaven, except for the people stationed in the Middle Earth on the Third Heaven Island, he was basically the most powerful person.
After breaking through the late stage of Transcendent, he received many invitations for adventures, two of which made him very tempted. One was from the Jubao Pavilion inviting him to seek the Seven Dragon Pill, and the other was from two late-stage Transcendent cultivators from the Wuxiang Pavilion, who invited him to go out to sea to hunt the Iron-backed Kun in the Questioning Heart Realm during the winter break. After thinking for a long time, he decided to choose the more challenging latter.
The Ironback Kun has a low mentality and prefers to float on the sea surface and not move during the winter break. This is a good opportunity to hunt it. He and two late-stage Transcendental Masters from Wuxiang Pavilion, plus three other casual cultivators in the late-stage Transcendental Master, a total of six people, found a Questioning Heart Realm Ironback Kun and fought repeatedly. They could have trapped and killed the Ironback Kun with their swords, but because of his negligence, the Ironback Kun escaped from the siege.
The six people then chased the Ironback Kun for hundreds of miles. Suddenly, an island appeared in front of them. The island was several miles in radius and no one had ever seen it. It stands to reason that there should be no other islands in the Sea in the Bottle except the Three Heavens. At this time, some of the six people speculated that this island might be the legendary Hidden Spirit Island!
The legend of the Hidden Spirit Island has been circulating in the Three Heavens for a long time. It is said that there is a mysterious island somewhere in the Sea in the Bottle. No one knows where this mysterious island is located. According to rumors, those who have seen this island only caught a glimpse of it, and then the mysterious island disappeared, like a mirage.
Therefore, no one has ever really landed on the mysterious island, and every time someone sees the mysterious island, the location is different. Over time, it is called the Hidden Spirit Island, which can be called a strange story in the sea in a bottle.
When the six people encountered this strange island, they naturally wanted to go there to investigate, maybe there would be a great opportunity, but as soon as the six people approached the Hidden Spirit Island, countless flying monsters flew out of it and chased them, scaring the six people to death, and they turned around and fled without saying a word!
…
When Duan Qing saw that the Seven Star Array shield suddenly disappeared, he knew that someone had escaped from the battle, but he did not follow, but locked his eyes on Mo Gen, secretly rejoicing in his heart, it would be best if there was an accident, otherwise it would be difficult for him to find an opportunity to attack!
Although the strength of the golden armored dragon did surprise him, it never left the Seven Dragon Pill from beginning to end, and he was far away from it, so he thought it would not pose a threat to his safety.
The old man surnamed Xia and the weak middle-aged man were frightened by the golden-armored dragon and were ready to flee. However, before they could escape from the deep pit, they saw the golden-armored dragon swung its claws at them again. Almost instantly, two golden auras exploded behind them again.
The weak middle-aged man seemed to have noticed it in advance. When the golden-armored dragon just swung its claws, he placed the flying sword behind him. With a pinch of the formula, the flying sword suddenly exploded. The shock wave offset most of the golden aura, leaving two deep scars on his back that could be seen to the bone, and he escaped from the deep pit.
The old man surnamed Xia was not so lucky. He did not have time to perform the body protection spell again, and was directly torn into a blood mist by the golden aura, and exploded in the water!
Mo Gen originally held a glimmer of hope in his heart and did not escape immediately, but seeing that the old man Xia was killed by the golden-armored dragon, the last glimmer of hope was shattered. He felt cold in his heart and fled behind the weak middle-aged man.
Seeing this, Duan Qing hurriedly followed Mo Gen silently for several feet. When he was about to leave, he looked back and found that there was no one beside the deep pit. The woman surnamed Shui had disappeared without a trace.
At this time, everyone was only concerned with escaping and had no time to care about other things. Duan Qing felt that this was a good opportunity to take action. He secretly took out Ju Qing and used the sword control technique to attack Mo Gen's back.
But Mo Gen had expected it. He turned around and hit the broad sword body of Ju Qing with a sword!
Mo Gen looked at Duan Qing with a smile, hum! I have noticed that your behavior is weird! You have been hanging behind grandpa to launch a sneak attack? Grandpa can go from an ordinary mortal in March City to a mortal monk today. How can you, a yellow-haired boy from Jinxuan Sect, know what he has experienced!
But his smile suddenly froze on his face. The flying sword he hit suddenly split into three. The middle one was knocked away by him, and the remaining two small flying swords arrived at his chest in the blink of an eye, and passed through his chest at the same time. After a circle, they re-formed a broad giant green with the flying sword that was knocked away.
Mo Gen, die!
Duan Qing recalled the giant green, and when he crossed with Mo Gen's body, he stretched out his hand to pull off his storage bracelet and hid it in his arms. Then he performed the sword control technique, and the giant green took Duan Qing up at a high speed and soon caught up with the people above.
When Duan Qing and everyone else surfaced almost at the same time, a whistling sound came from the sky in the distance. He turned his head and looked, and immediately cursed his bad luck! How come we ran into a group of flying monsters again, and the momentum of the flying monsters this time was far better than the group of winged snakes we encountered last time.
Hmm? Li Lian! In a breath, the several people being chased by the monsters came closer to Duan Qing and others. Duan Qing immediately recognized that one of them was Li Lian from Dashifeng. The two looked at each other, and he dived underwater again without saying a word.
What you fear is what you get! I can actually meet this person in this ghost place. I hope he doesn’t recognize him!
The weak middle-aged man who surfaced with Duan Qing, as well as the five people including the monk surnamed Liu, originally wanted to escape from the water and fly away on swords, but seeing the overwhelming flying monsters, and with Duan Qing leading the way, they all retreated underwater.
Li Lian had not seen Duan Qing many times in Jinxuan Sect. When he saw Duan Qing, he just felt familiar, but he did not recognize him immediately. When Duan Qing was guilty and saw him immediately dived underwater, he suddenly woke up and was ecstatic!
More than a month ago, news came from the sect that Yanfeng Duan Qing killed two fellow disciples and rebelled against Jinxuan Sect. Anyone who captured Duan Qing alive would be given a magic weapon by the sect!
Magic weapon! That's a magic weapon! The flying sword he is using now is just a top-grade magic weapon. He dare not even think about magic weapons. The value of the worst magic weapon is more than 100,000 spirit stones!
Almost without much consideration, Li Lian immediately separated from the six people, plunged into the water, and chased Duan Qing. There are many monsters in the sea. Although it is risky to enter the water, for the sake of magic weapons, you can't care so much!
Seeing this, the other five people thought that Li Lian was taking a risky move to avoid the flying monsters that were chasing him from behind, and they couldn't help but secretly curse him for being stupid. No one followed Li Lian.
Although the flying monsters behind were terrifying, they couldn't catch up with a few people. As long as they could escape back to the third heaven, those flying monsters would not be a big deal.
But once they entered the sea, it would be different. You must know that the sea is the world of monsters. Although it is the winter break and the monsters are not active, it is better to be safe than sorry. If you really encounter a powerful monster, it is hard to say whether you can escape. After all, even if you fly a sword, your speed in the water will be greatly reduced!
What's more important is that among the monsters chasing everyone, there are still a few dragon beasts! Although the flying speed of the dragon beast is average, if it is in the water, its speed will definitely crush the cultivators of the same realm!
