Chapter 1987: Fleeing Far Away

~12 min read 2,298 words

However, he gritted his teeth and, after risking sending out his spiritual body along with his golden body, naturally made a prompt decision to use this talisman.

Sure enough, the incarnations of the Holy Ancestors, such as Xue Guang, did not see through it in time, allowing him to deceive them and pass this hurdle.

Of course, by doing this, not only did he have to take a certain risk, but the situation of his spiritual body and his second Nascent Soul naturally became even more perilous.

Fortunately, that spiritual body was transformed from a Spirit Immortal, and Qu'er, who controlled this spiritual body, was also transformed from a heaven and earth spirit object. As long as she could seize the opportunity to reveal her original form and hide, she should be able to deceive the enemy's eyes and ears.

As for the second Nascent Soul, he gave it another Taiyi Transformation Cleansing Talisman. Moreover, because the demonic infant had cultivated a secret technique from demonic cultivation methods, it could transform the demonic Qi in its body into wings, thereby also cultivating that Blood Shadow Escape technique.

With these two backup plans, it was naturally not impossible for the demonic infant to escape. After all, once Xue Guang and the others discovered that what they were chasing was not his true body, they likely would not entangle themselves further.

This was also the reason why, as soon as he felt the timing was about right, he immediately revealed his identity again and began a slaughter of some demons!

Calculating now, the news of his true body appearing should have already reached the ears of Xue Guang and the others. He naturally did not want to be entangled by them again, which was why he had to truly abandon Tianyuan City and seek another place to escape.

Thinking this way in his heart, Han Li did not hesitate any longer. He directly urged his escape light, turned around, and flew into the sky in another direction.

Within the next two months, Han Li began to drift erratically, darting here and there.

At first, this indeed made it impossible for Xue Guang, who was chasing behind, to catch up. He could only rely on reports from demons who frequently discovered Han Li's traces in various places to hurriedly rush over to pursue him.

Such actions naturally made it impossible to truly grasp Han Li's whereabouts.

By the time they rushed to the vicinity, Han Li had long since vanished.

What was even stranger was that the woman suspected to be Yuan Sha did not appear together with Xue Guang's three incarnations, and her whereabouts were unknown.

Han Li was naturally happy to see this kind of thing. If it weren't for the fact that his magic power was low, he would even have wanted to use this golden opportunity to severely injure Xue Guang's incarnations.

But under the current circumstances, he could only helplessly continue to flee for his life.

After Xue Guang's three incarnations saw that multiple pursuits were ineffective, they gritted their teeth and actually brought in a large number of men, setting up eyes and ears everywhere in the controlled territory like spreading a net.

In addition, this demon could utilize the various teleportation arrays already controlled by the demon army, so he was able to tightly follow Han Li's trail without letting go.

Han Li felt a chill in his heart and dared not relax at all.

Often, as soon as he had slightly recovered three or four parts of his spiritual power, he would not dare to stay in the same place for even a fraction of a moment and would flee ten thousand miles away.

Just like this, there were several times he was almost blocked by Xue Guang and the others again.

Fortunately, relying on a trace of premonition in the dark, whenever he felt uneasy, he would rather stop immediately to meditate and recover his magic power, and would immediately flee ten thousand miles away, which allowed him to escape several more disasters.

After several times in a row, Han Li naturally became increasingly cautious. The human strongholds he originally intended to go to, including the Holy Emperor City and the four great True Spirit families, had to be abandoned, and he had to go far away elsewhere.

The number of demons in other directions indeed decreased significantly, and the time it took for Xue Guang and the three to track him down also began to grow longer.

This made Han Li feel much more relaxed, and his time for meditation and rest also increased, with the magic power in his body gradually becoming abundant.

But unfortunately, good times did not last long. Three months later, Han Li suddenly realized that among the pursuers behind him, there was unexpectedly the woman suspected to be Yuan Sha's incarnation. Moreover, as soon as she appeared, she joined Xue Guang's three incarnations in tightly pursuing him, not giving him any chance to rest or catch his breath.

Often, just as he had finished meditating and resting for no more than two or three hours, this demoness would definitely appear with Xue Guang's three incarnations to track him down.

However, fortunately, there were not many other demons in the vicinity, so Han Li could naturally still leave calmly.

But in the following month, no matter how Han Li changed his location and direction, the four demons would always appear behind him like maggots on a tarsal bone.

This shocked Han Li, and he finally realized something was wrong.

The four demons actually seemed to have a way to track his approximate position. Although it was clearly not very precise, it was enough to make it impossible for him to shake off the pursuit.

Clearly, this method of tracking him was something the demoness possessed, and it was also something newly obtained. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to escape by shedding his skin like a cicada earlier.

With a chill in his heart, Han Li tried several times to cast spells and devise plans, but none could change the result of being positioned from afar by the enemy. He became even more afraid to flee toward places with many demons and simply plunged into wherever it was desolate.

In this way, even though he could not shake off Xue Guang and the others for a moment, the manpower the four demons could utilize became increasingly scarce.

Just like this, as the two sides fled and pursued, time passed day by day, and they gradually arrived at the edge of the human territory.

Because this area was close to the savage world, ancient beasts could often break through the barriers and rush in, so there were no human cities established here. It could be considered the most desolate area in the human territory.

Without human strongholds, there would naturally be no other demon armies stationed in this place.

And with Han Li's escape speed, the other high-tier demons who could still follow the four demons at this moment were naturally few and far between. Moreover, they were only able to reach this place because they were collected by Xue Guang into that huge jade plate.

Han Li's face was gloomy as he turned into a green rainbow and flew forward rapidly.

At this moment, with the magic power in his body, it was really not suitable to support him in transforming into a giant roc to travel rapidly, so he could only adopt ordinary escape light to fly forward.

It had been more than half a year since he fled. Although he could not let the four demons behind him truly catch up because he constantly changed his escape direction, such a long pursuit made even his heart, firm as iron, feel extremely exhausted.

However, the more this was the case, the more Han Li would not impulsively turn around and fight the enemy to the death. Instead, he steeled his heart and planned to continue this stalemate with the four demons.

He did not believe that the four demons really intended to chase him to the ends of the earth.

After all, the four demons were chasing him so desperately, and their consumption of magic power should be no less than his. They would likewise not have much time to recover their magic power.

In the high sky ten million miles away from Han Li, two groups of white light, transformed from a stone hall and a giant plate, were flying through the air.

And in the space where the jade plate was located, Xue Guang's three incarnations stood side by side on the crystal wall, discussing something with Yuan Sha, who was appearing above.

"So, Fellow Daoist Yuan Sha still doesn't want to come into the Qiankun Plate. Fellow Daoist should be very clear that if we continue to chase like this while controlling our own treasures, the magic power consumed will be quite significant. I came in a hurry, and I didn't carry many pills to recover magic power. Although I asked for some from my subordinates earlier, after such a long flight, there are very few left. If we continue to chase, we can only rely on the bit-by-bit support of our true body's magic power. I cannot guarantee that I will persist longer than that human brat in front! That brat doesn't know how many pills to recover magic power he carries with him; until now, there is no sign that his magic power is completely exhausted. Fellow Daoist wouldn't carry too many pills either, right? In this way, we can only ride the same treasure to take turns resting." The Xue Guang incarnation in the middle was persuading Yuan Sha.

"Taking turns to rest, I naturally won't object. But why don't the three of you come to sit in the Stone Demon Hall? Why must you insist on going to your Qiankun Plate?" The blue-robed woman narrowed her eyes and said, unmoved.

"Hmph, Fellow Daoist is asking knowing the answer. The Blood Light Great Method we three cultivate and the natural protective stone Qi of the Stone Demon clan are mutually exclusive and repulsive. Meditating and resting in your Stone Demon Hall has no effect at all. Naturally, it is more secure for Fellow Daoist Yuan Sha to come to the Qiankun Plate." The Xue Guang incarnation shook his head and refused flatly.

"Is that so! But I am more worried that if I go to your Qiankun Plate, if you mobilize the Qiankun supernatural powers, my life will be in danger. The Blood Light Great Method is best at devouring others' essence blood and magic power. This kind of thing, you, Xue Guang, haven't not done before." Yuan Sha sneered and pointed out bluntly.

"Fellow Daoist Yuan Sha is really too suspicious. Both you and I are only incarnations here. If I did that, if your true body knew, how could you let Xue rest?" Another Xue Guang incarnation sighed and said.

"Hehe, that's hard to say. Even if what you say has some truth, I will never take this risk. Perhaps the essence blood and magic power of one of my incarnations won't make you move your heart, but if you add the Chaos Two Qi and the Demon-Suppressing Lock in that brat Han's hands, I'm afraid even I would be moved." Yuan Sha's mouth twitched, and she revealed a trace of mockery.

"What Chaos Two Qi, Demon-Suppressing Lock! Xue doesn't know what you are talking about?" Xue Guang's three incarnations changed color simultaneously. After looking at each other, the middle incarnation shook his head and denied it.

"Xue Guang, why do you still have to play these little tricks. I saw the situation of that brat collecting the Chaos Two Qi and the Demon-Suppressing Lock in the Yellow Springs Earth Fire with my own eyes. I have long heard that the Demon-Suppressing Lock treasure is very likely to have fallen into your hands. It seems this rumor is true. I don't know how you did it, but you actually let this treasure fall into the hands of a human junior. This time, you let three incarnations descend to the human world together, also for the Chaos Two Qi, right?" The woman raised her eyebrows suddenly and sneered.

"Since you saw it with your own eyes, Xue won't hide it from you either. What do you want? Are you going to notify Liu Ji and the others?" Xue Guang's middle incarnation's face turned gloomy, and his voice also turned cold.

"This Chaos Two Qi is so important to our Holy Ancestor existence, how could I let others come to share a cup! My condition is very simple. The Demon-Suppressing Lock and half of the Chaos Two Qi can be given to you, but the remaining Chaos Two Qi and this human brat himself, along with other heavy treasures on him, must be given to me." After Yuan Sha's eyes flashed, she slowly stated her conditions.

"Your appetite is really not small. Not to mention other conditions, my Ziyan Cauldron also fell into that brat's hands. I must take this treasure back." Xue Guang's middle incarnation's pupils shrank, and after a long while, he snorted coldly in response.

"The Ziyan Cauldron was collected by that brat Han? This is really beyond my expectations. Since that's the case, I have no objection to returning this treasure to its original owner." Yuan Sha was slightly startled and revealed a look of surprise.

"Good, then it's settled. The two of us can be considered officially allied. Should we disclose the method of tracking this brat?" Another Xue Guang incarnation's eyes rolled slightly, and he asked suddenly.
