Chapter 491: The Troublesome Black Magic

I know who you are.

Lu Xun said in a low voice.

Since you know, you should know what to do, right?

The witch slowly bent down, her emerald pupils glimmering with a cold light in the gloom, like a wandering will-o'-the-wisp in the wilderness, silently locking onto Lu Xun.

Of course.

As soon as Lu Xun's words fell, his whole body instantly distanced.

In the blink of an eye, he had already appeared a thousand li away.

Perhaps Lu Xun disappeared too quickly, for the witch couldn't help but stare for a moment.

Heh, interesting.

She wasn't the slightest bit anxious.

All I saw was her taking out a black magic wand and lightly tapping it toward the direction Lu Xun had vanished.

Boom.

From her mouth, she softly uttered a single word.

In fact, before revealing herself, she had already silently placed a curse on Lu Xun.

Now, all that's needed is to detonate the curse, and Lu Xun will lose all ability to move.

Huh?

A few seconds later, the witch's calm gaze vanished.

Because.... the curse she placed had no effect, like a mud ox entering the sea, leaving no trace.

This is impossible!

Even if an Eastern cultivator possessed a Glazed Pure Body, it would be impossible to ignore her curse.

The Glazed Pure Body itself also depends on one's realm.

Even a Glazed Holy Body depends on the realm.

For example, a Fifth Realm cultivator with a Glazed Holy Body can be immune to Fifth Realm-level curses and has great resistance to Sixth Realm-level curses.

Yet it cannot completely ignore curses of Seventh Realm or higher.

She is a Ninth Realm cultivator.

Even if Lu Xun truly possessed a Glazed Pure Body, her curse could not possibly have no effect.

This curse is not an ordinary curse, but top-tier black magic.

But the fact is exactly that.

Thus, after the witch deliberately verified it and found it indeed ineffective, her expression changed.

She lightly waved the wand in her hand, murmured an incantation, and her whole person vanished from the spot.

Even though the curse was ineffective, having been targeted by her, Lu Xun did not think of fleeing.

Why can't the Heavenly Dao Talisman be used?

On the other side, after Lu Xun repeatedly used the Instant Character Technique to increase distance, he prepared to use the Heavenly Dao Talisman.

Upon using it, Lu Xun's gaze narrowed.

Because,

the Heavenly Dao Talisman could not be activated.

There's a problem.

This situation reminded Lu Xun of when Chi Sha Yao Huang first attacked; Chi Sha Yao Huang also used some means to prevent Lu Xun from using the Heavenly Dao Talisman.

But that time, the Spirit Realm they were in was far smaller than it is now.

Let's try running farther away.

Lu Xun continued to flee.

Facing a Ninth Realm cultivator, Lu Xun dared not be careless, especially since it was a Ninth Realm from Lan Xing.

This witch's appearance was beyond Lu Xun's expectations.

Originally,

Lu Xun was in hiding.

But he hadn't expected that, because of his action coming to seek the Star Gate, it would inadvertently expose himself.

In this world, after all, nothing can go entirely according to Lu Xun's plans.

Especially as Lu Xun's strength grows stronger and he enters the sight of more and more powerful beings.

She didn't catch up, did she?

While fleeing, Lu Xun constantly used the Heavenly Dao Eye to observe, yet he found no trace of the witch.

This made him feel somewhat strange.

This witch, she's not pursuing?

As for the witch's curse, Lu Xun had indeed felt it.

His Chaos Divine Body originally could devour through Chaos Cells.

Now, with the Glazed Body, he is even more unafraid of such curse attacks.

Any curse entering Lu Xun's body is directly purified, having no effect.

Lu Xun naturally hopes the witch does not come after him.

However, if the witch were to just give up like that, Lu Xun would think it unlikely.

Thus, Lu Xun faintly feels uneasy.

Still not working.

After flying another distance, Lu Xun found that the Heavenly Dao Talisman still could not be used.

Seeing the witch not giving chase, Lu Xun took out the flying boat and continued to escape accurately.

As long as the flying boat's speed increases, it is naturally faster than the Instant Character Technique.

In the dim starry sky, when the spirit patterns on the flying boat were activated, the light they emitted shone on Lu Xun, imprinting his shadow.

And just then.

Lu Xun's shadow solidified rapidly, as if it had become a living creature.

"Something's not right!"

Fortunately, Lu Xun noticed, put away the flying boat, activated an Instant Character Technique, and escaped from there.

"Heh."

Just as Lu Xun had escaped, his shadow completely turned into the witch's likeness.

Seeing Lu Xun distance himself, the witch did not panic at all.

In her deep eyes burned black flames, which constantly flickered, imprinting Lu Xun's appearance.

No matter how far Lu Xun fled, the Lu Xun within the flames remained consistently clear.

Then she took a light step toward Lu Xun.

With that step, the distance between her and Lu Xun was directly halved.

With the second step, the distance between her and Lu Xun was halved again.

"How can she be so fast!!!"

As Lu Xun noticed this, his face changed.

The witch came too fast.

This speed is even more exaggerated than his fully mastered Instant Character Technique after achieving great accomplishment.

While she was taking her steps, Lu Xun had already fled tens of thousands of li.

As a result, with just one step, she directly crossed a distance of over ten thousand li.

She is a magician, but she does not possess divine abilities like Shrink Ground to an Inch.

Even with Shrink Ground to an Inch, in the Spirit Realm where the heaven-earth strength is decent, it is difficult to achieve such an effect.

Third step, fourth step, fifth step.

After five steps, the distance between the witch and Lu Xun had narrowed to a point visible to the naked eye.

Even though Lu Xun was still fleeing, the relative distance between the witch and Lu Xun seemed to be locked.

Each step could halve the distance.

At this rate, only a dozen or so steps are needed.

Then the witch could come to Lu Xun's side.

"No wonder the Nine Realms of the West are unwilling to provoke her!"

At this moment, Lu Xun experienced how troublesome the witch was.
