Chapter 588: Swift Pursuit
Once the Thunder Eagle died, the surrounding Shaman Domain instantly boiled over. Little Wei Yuan felt at least four or five immense spiritual senses sweep over, and two were rapidly approaching.
The Shaman Domain's heaven and earth also reacted; Little Wei Yuan's body grew heavier and heavier, and his speed slowed accordingly. He stowed away the spray-tubes, retracting them entirely into the Shaman tribe's husk, which caused the pressure to lighten slightly.
Countless hostile intents rose from all directions—some from armies, some from powerful Shamans, and others from distant altars. In this instant, there was no telling how many Shamans had been mobilized to search for Little Wei Yuan.
After a moment of thought, Little Wei Yuan released his Dharma Form Warrior of Wisdom, then handed over all the captured Shaman tribesmen to it. The Dharma Form Warrior, carrying the two spray-tubes and the group of Shaman tribesmen, flew higher and higher, directly into the clouds, before activating a breath-concealing Daoist technique and flying toward the Azure Void.
Little Wei Yuan, meanwhile, flew at a low-to-mid altitude, heading toward the desolate, high-altitude, frigid mountain region north of the Azure Void, slightly diverging from the Dharma Form's path.
Despite the obstruction of the heaven and earth's power, Little Wei Yuan possessed the Sniper Feather wings and carried the aura of a Spirit Shaman, so the heaven and earth's power was not particularly strong, and his speed remained extremely fast.
Since he had already alerted the entire Lei Ze tribe, Little Wei Yuan simply stopped hiding and pushed his speed to the maximum. Even with the Shaman Domain's heaven and earth obstructing him, Little Wei Yuan was still faster than the Thunder Eagle.
As long as his speed was fast enough, the enemy would have no chance to surround and kill him, and they would only have one chance to intercept him.
A pair of blood-colored eyes suddenly opened in the sky, locking onto Little Wei Yuan, and roared: "How dare you kill an Elder of my Lei Ze tribe! No matter who you are, stop immediately and accept your death, and you might die a less painful one!"
Little Wei Yuan ignored it entirely and continued to charge forward at full speed.
Once the blood-colored eyes formed, they could not move. Watching Little Wei Yuan's figure recede into the distance, they could only roar in vain. At this moment, a thick bolt of blood-colored lightning suddenly descended from the sky, striking Little Wei Yuan directly!
Little Wei Yuan's body sank, but he immediately resumed flying; his speed had only slowed slightly, and he gradually picked it back up.
That Nether Shaman had attacked from an extreme distance by borrowing the power of sacrifice; after one strike, it had no strength left and could only watch helplessly as Little Wei Yuan moved further away.
A moment later, a giant hand suddenly descended above Little Wei Yuan's head, swatting down at him like a fly. Another Nether Shaman!
Little Wei Yuan let out a loud shout, wielding the Brutal, and suddenly turned upward, crashing into the giant blood-colored hand at full speed, passing through the palm in the blink of an eye. The blood-colored hand suddenly exploded; in this head-on, long-distance exchange, Little Wei Yuan had the slight upper hand.
These two Nether Shamans were too far away, and the power they could transmit was very limited, resulting in Little Wei Yuan breaking through them one by one. The Lei Ze tribe had a total of five Nether Shamans; Little Wei Yuan had killed one—though it was the weakest one—and broken through the interception of two others, and he was now about to break out of the encirclement.
Just then, a chain suddenly extended from the sky, actually forcing the invisible causal chain on Little Wei Yuan's feet to manifest! This chain latched directly onto the Causal Chain, instantly pulling it taut! Little Wei Yuan's figure stalled, and after a brief suspension in the air, he immediately accelerated, yet his speed was dragged down to only thirty percent of its original state by the chain.
The Causal Chain on Little Wei Yuan's feet had formed due to the refining of eight hundred thousand Shaman troops, and now that it was locked by the Shaman tribe, it contained the Heavenly Dao.
Little Wei Yuan only felt the chain to be incomparably heavy, as if he were dragging a small mountain while moving with difficulty. Yet Little Wei Yuan continued to fly with all his might, causing the invisible chain to emit constant wails.
At this speed, many immense auras were gradually closing in. And in front of him, a military aura like a sheer cliff suddenly rose!
The military aura was like layered mountain ranges, both perilous and strange; there was only one Shaman unit in the Western Region with such a military aura, and that was the Lei Ze tribe's Flying Eagle Cavalry.
Sure enough, a black cloud appeared ahead; as it moved closer, it became clear that it was hundreds of giant eagles, each carrying an archer who had already aimed at Little Wei Yuan. Little Wei Yuan calculated the distance of the pursuers in an instant and brazenly charged into the Flying Eagle formation!
In the blink of an eye, a rain of blood fell from the sky, black feathers flew in chaos, and one flying eagle after another was cut down by Little Wei Yuan, plummeting toward the earth. In the blink of an eye, hundreds of black eagles had fallen!
At this moment, a smear of blood-red suddenly generated from the Causal Chain, rushing directly into Little Wei Yuan's body along the chain, and a rain of blood actually began to fall within the Human World Fireworks!
Mortals immediately rushed to the nearest buildings to hide, while the Immortal Plants opened barriers of various sizes to block the blood rain. However, the city was now too large, and the Immortal Plants had omissions in protecting only the central city; the overseas islands could no longer be protected.
The blood rain generated above every mortal's head; the mortals in the central city were still relatively fine, as the vast majority were sheltered by the Immortal Plants, and only a few hundred mortals were drenched by the blood rain, turning into nothingness, their spirituality dissipating.
However, the thousands of mortals working on the isolated island that had just begun large-scale construction could not escape the calamity, and almost all of them dissipated in the blood rain, with only a few finding places to hide and thus luckily escaping the disaster.
At this time, the shadow in the moon had just swallowed the Thunder Eagle's soul and was sleeping. The young girl Yin-Yang walked out from the formation where she had been hiding; she was extremely furious, reaching out to pull a sword aura from the Laurel Immortal Tree, and slashed it out with a wave of her hand. That scarlet sword aura instantly transformed into a thousand-foot giant sword, disappearing beyond the firmament.
The blood light had originally been pouring into Little Wei Yuan's body along the chain, but then countless scarlet sword auras surged out from within Little Wei Yuan, flowing against the current, crushing the blood energy to pieces all the way, and then disappearing into the void along the chain.
A roar mixed with pain and fear came faintly from afar, and no more blood energy attacked along the chain; it merely dragged down Little Wei Yuan's speed.
Little Wei Yuan suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, which turned into jade beads as soon as it left his body. Little Wei Yuan then waved a sheet of True Fire, burning all the spat-out blood to nothing. The blood curse just now had consumed a massive amount of sacrificial power; with Little Wei Yuan's current cultivation, it was still difficult to resist. It was just unclear how many Shamans on the altar would survive after the young girl Yin-Yang's furious long-distance counterattack.
A large group of flying eagles chased from behind; their speed was a fraction faster than Little Wei Yuan's, gradually closing the distance. As the distance between the two sides narrowed, countless Shaman curses were thrown at Little Wei Yuan.
Little Wei Yuan's face sank, and he suddenly turned back, his left hand wielding the Scarlet Night Immortal-Slaying Sword and his right hand the Brutal, cutting down over a hundred flying eagles in the blink of an eye; the riders on the eagles' backs who tried to take off and flee were also killed by Little Wei Yuan in passing. But Little Wei Yuan also added over a dozen wounds to his body.
Read it one by one, without missing a single word!
Seeing the Flying Eagle Cavalry formation fall into chaos, Little Wei Yuan stopped and continued flying east. The Flying Eagle Cavalry followed closely behind. The Flying Eagle Cavalry riders had to be at least Dao Foundation nobles, but the flying eagles themselves all had the strength of Great Shamans; the wounds Little Wei Yuan received were all pecks and scratches, and the Shaman riders could not yet harm his Dharma Body.
Therefore, when Little Wei Yuan turned back to counterattack, he killed as many flying eagles as possible.
A single flying eagle was slightly slower than Little Wei Yuan, but when a large group of flying eagles formed a formation, with the addition of military aura, their speed greatly increased, actually becoming a fraction faster than Little Wei Yuan.
After they reorganized their formation, they quickly caught up to Little Wei Yuan again. Little Wei Yuan turned back to fight, scattering the formation before continuing east. Just like this, thousands of Flying Eagle Cavalry pursued closely behind, and Little Wei Yuan turned back to counter-kill from time to time. Every time he counter-killed, Little Wei Yuan would add some wounds to his body.
Just like this, when the Azure Void was in sight, Little Wei Yuan was already covered in wounds. The Flying Eagle Cavalry was still in close pursuit; just then, they saw a batch of silver light spots appear on the horizon, moving with extraordinary speed!
These were the missiles Little Wei Yuan had summoned.
In the blink of an eye, balls of fire exploded in the air, and countless flying eagles fell to the ground.
