Chapter 629

Ye Lin knew he had fallen into a trap; the several black-clad people who appeared here were of unknown origin, but since they could sneak into the forest of Paolong Sacred Land, could they be outside cultivators?

However, what Ye Lin did not know was that Paolong Sacred Land, which could be counted among the top powers in Zhong Tian Zhi Yu, how could it possibly be entered so casually by outsiders?

But given the current situation, Ye Lin dared not think too much; the Core Formation Cultivators who came to surround him numbered four, and he did not know how long they had been hiding in the dark, nor whether there were any others.

Speaking frankly, Ye Lin's own magical power intensity actually could already match that of a somewhat weaker Golden Core Cultivator, but no matter what he was merely a Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator; facing the siege of four Core Formation Stage Cultivators, being able to not be defeated instantly was already quite impressive.

Moreover, he fought while retreating, not choosing to fight to the death with them, and several times escaped their encirclement; this shows Ye Lin was not the type to fight to the bitter end, and he understood to adapt to changing battle circumstances, which is why he was not taken down by their combined attack.

But seeing Ye Lin so slippery, the hidden black-clad cultivators' expressions instantly turned ugly: "Hurry up and kill him!!"

Upon seeing that this group no longer held back, attacking fast and fiercely, clearly intending to keep him here, Ye Lin secretly thought: Not good.

"Lead!"

Only to see several spells come flying, the air heated up a bit, sweeping across half the sky, flying to just above Ye Lin's head, about to fall! Ye Lin turned his hand and made a sword flourish, his magical power flowing accordingly, actually forming a yin-yang fish pattern before him!

Immediately after, all the incoming falling spells were drawn onto Ye Lin's sword blade!

"Go!"

"What?!"

Those who came to pursue him did not expect Ye Lin to have this trick; he actually absorbed the spells they cast, condensed and reflected them, and with a single sword strike sent those spells back, striking the foremost pursuer!

"Ahhh!"

That person let out a miserable cry, struck down to the ground by his own side's spell.

Ye Lin continued to retreat, not wanting to fight to the death with them, for in that moment he realized that these people's strength was only at the Core Formation level, impossible to have penetrated this deep, so they were not intruders by accident....

"That is a premeditated, organized infiltration; it couldn't be just these few people."

Ye Lin was quite cautious; even if he didn't react at first, seeing these people's movements he knew they meant no good, surely plotting something big.

Since they dared to do this in Paolong Sacred Land, it couldn't be just these few people! There must be stronger cultivators; even if he were very capable, if he were pursued he might not necessarily survive.

Thinking this, Ye Lin made a decisive decision, immediately activating his cultivation method!

"Boom!"

In an instant, Ye Lin's magical power was consumed like a tide, replaced by his speed increasing to the level of the Explosive Hair Technique, and in a puff he ran several hundred meters!

"Chase! Can't let him return alive!"

The three black-clad people instantly panicked; if he succeeded in escaping, when the people of Paolong Sacred Land came to investigate, everything would be ruined.

By then, even if they could escape, would the superiors not reduce them to ashes?

Thinking this, the three immediately gave chase, and in order to avoid making a big deal, they hurriedly notified others to come over.

"Zhao Elder, something's happened! A disciple of Paolong Sacred Land came over and discovered us!"

"What? You bunch of wastes! Where are the people?!"

"Over here...."

"Bite him to death, absolutely don't let him escape your sight; I'll immediately bring people over to surround him!"

"Yes!"

Seeing Ye Lin run faster and faster, the three also gritted their teeth, disregarding consumption, immediately activating their spells to burst with extreme speed and give chase.

In the pursuit and escape, the black-clad people saw Ye Lin's speed not decreasing, gritted their teeth: "Quick, use the Blood Escape Technique to chase!"

"No need, look, this direction is exactly where Zhao Elder and the others are coming from, right?"

"Oh, then keep a close watch on him!"

The black-clad people noticed that Ye Lin's escape direction happened to be the same as the direction others were coming to surround from, so they stopped pursuing and instead locked onto his footsteps and followed.

Ye Lin also sensed something was off, looked around: "Wrong, I'm about to reach the Outer Gate any moment, why are these people still chasing?"

There are only two reasons they'd still dare to chase: one, they deliberately let him return; but they're already almost at the Outer Gate entrance, so why are they still chasing?

Two, there is an ambush ahead!

Ye Lin's mind turned quickly this time, instantly thinking of something: "Could there be a traitor in the Outer Gate?!"

Thinking this, Ye Lin had just turned to change direction and run when he felt a terrifying aura approaching!

"Not good, a Nascent Soul Cultivator!"

"Kid, you can't run...."

Before the leading black-clad cultivator could even surround him, Ye Lin's pupils contracted and he instantly took out a talisman and stuck it on himself!

"Wanli Transmission Talisman?!"

Ye Lin instantly vanished from the spot; the group of black-clad people who had come to surround him looked at the three who had been chasing, glaring at them:

"You bunch of wastes!"

"Zhao Elder, spare my life, spare my life!!"

"Spare us, Zhao Elder, we also didn't know that guy would run over there; we hadn't heard of any mission from the Outer Gate heading our way. Moreover, this kid knows how to break the Illusion Formation, so we couldn't...."

"Smack!"

The Nascent Soul Cultivator known as Zhao Elder, furious and flustered, slapped the three people in front of him into a mist of blood!

The surrounding black-clad people fell silent like cicadas in winter, not daring to speak.

"Find him! That kid used the Wanli Transmission Talisman, he's definitely still in this forest; a group guards the entrance, the rest follow me in pursuit!"

"Yes!"

The black-clad people split up to act, while Ye Lin, having fled to a distance, without hesitation picked up a Supreme Spirit Stone to absorb spiritual energy and restore his magical power!

"Damn it, is there really a traitor?" Ye Lin gritted his teeth.

"But who exactly is it?"

These people are organized, and have been lurking in the forest for so long; what exactly do they intend to do?

Ye Lin, while restoring his magical power, did not linger for a moment, directly choosing to continue fleeing. The best course now must be to first escape the Nascent Soul Cultivator's pursuit, but the Outer Gate is currently inaccessible, and he might also be watched by a traitor, so he can only first find a place to hide and then decide.

"First, go to Long Qi Cheng!"

Thinking back to where this group had appeared before, what's the deal with that scorched earth?

"Is the Quhuo Pill related to this place?"

Ye Lin, after all, has only been cultivating for a short time; although he knows some things are related, he doesn't understand the specifics.

But now a Nascent Soul Cultivator is chasing him from behind, and only two Wanli Transmission Talismans remain; he must find a way to flee quickly, then later ask someone to gather information....

"But now who can I trust?"

Ye Lin gritted his teeth; glancing at the Outer Gate, he thought perhaps everyone there were ghosts, and since he couldn't return, it was hard to tell.

Moreover, he doesn't even know what this group wants, so naturally he can't guess who the ghost is!

For his own safety, Ye Lin decided he still needed to investigate this matter thoroughly, after all he's already gotten involved.
