Chapter 5342: Catch Up

ers to find the Jieying Fruit, but Lu Xiaoteng believed they should also have other arrangements, maybe just not as effective as Xue Fuyou.Several people had been through life and death, it was imposs...www.52bqg.info, the only path to immortality!

As for when the Fulong Army could arrive as reinforcements, it depended on how the battle here went. It would take a considerable amount of time for the Fulong Three Sages to completely stabilize the situation. However, this had little to do with the Elder in Hiding. If the reinforcements didn't arrive and they couldn't defeat Lu Xia Tian, that would be a loss for the Fulong Three Sages. The Elder in Hiding had already completed his mission by sealing Lu Xia Tian’s spatial treasure and keeping him from completely escaping.

The old man, Kong Yin, followed Lu Xiaoteng all the way, thinking he could catch up with him in a short time. When he got to the back, he was also quite surprised.

Since the mastery of spatial law power, Old Man Kongyin rarely encountered anyone who could match him in speed. Now, chasing all the way, he still couldn't catch up to Lu Xia Tian, which inevitably made him feel surprised.

“So that’s how it is, this cunning fellow.” After careful contemplation in the empty void, Elder Kongyin discovered the secret within a short time. The other party had also cultivated the laws of space, and while their skill was not something Elder Kongyin paid much attention to, combining Lu Xiaitian's unique formations laid along the way, which incorporated a touch of spatial power, indeed played the role of a well-calculated ruse.

When ordinary people were pursued by powerful enemies, they would try every means to erase their tracks. But Lu Xia Tian did the opposite. He deliberately left his scent behind and used formations to disperse several layers of qi with varying strengths.

>Because every breath was real, Kong Yin Old Man was momentarily puzzled.

"Going against the grain, the methods are indeed ingenious and clever, but at the same time, setting up formations in different directions, each place or more or less leaves a portion of divine consciousness."

That means these divine souls are scattered all over the Demonic Abyss, and the chance of gathering them back later is extremely slim. Even if your primordial spirit is stronger than an immortal emperor, there will eventually come a time when you can't hold on any longer.

There's no good way to counter Lu Xia Tian's escape methods. He doesn't have the Changlong Bell, and even if he did, he couldn't unleash its true power.

However, even with Kongyin Elder's spiritual sensitivity to the fluctuations of spatial power being somewhat misled, it would be nearly impossible for Lu Xia Tian to completely shake him off.

Unless the other party's primordial spirit is strong enough to not fear this kind of consumption, and they are not the Heavenly Emperor, how could they so casually expend their divine consciousness.

"I guess he was backed into a corner. But you can run for a while, but you can't hide forever. This True Dragon is probably really at the end of its rope."

Kong Yin Lao Ren smiled faintly, and with a flick of his finger, he dispelled the simple formation before him. He continued to chase forward.

Lu Xia Tian's face was as dark as water, his brows furrowed the entire way. With his current abilities, it was almost impossible for him to shake off Kong Yin Elder and Fu Long Three Saints on his own.

For the time being, he was unable to disperse his divine sense everywhere simultaneously, leaving only one or a few places with interference formations. Even with his powerful primordial spirit, it was merely a temporary solution that could not quench his thirst. His primordial spirit would eventually collapse under the strain.

Now he had two paths before him. One was to retreat back into the Sea of Thunder, which was his original plan.

He had already been trapped in the Thunder Sea once, unable to move under the watchful eyes of the Three Saints of Fulong and the Elder Kongyin. The arrival of the Fulong Army would be a deadly threat to him. This is why Lu Xia Tian dared to leave the Thunder Sea, attempting to take advantage of the Fulong Army entering the cave half-way through, striking them by surprise. He aimed to disrupt the entire situation, causing conflict between the demons in the Demon-Slaying Abyss and the Fulong Army. With a combined assault, they would inevitably destroy the Fulong Army.

This plan is not wrong, just some things are taken for granted. Or underestimate the combat power of the Fúlóng Army. With the Three Saints of Fúlóng in charge, although Ye Chong mobilized the opponent and stirred up the Fúlóng Army formations on both sides of the cave, causing some damage, it was still acceptable to the entire Fúlóng Army. Now only Kong Yǐn Elder is chasing after, the Three Saints of Fúlóng are temporarily staying to stabilize the situation, and the Fúlóng Army will most likely survive this crisis.

At this point, if he returned to the Sea of Thunder, he would most likely face a similar situation as before. And after being tricked once, it was impossible for the Three Holy Dragons of Fuling to repeat their scheme.

At this point, returning to the Sea of Thunder would only make the situation worse than before, and there might not even be a chance to escape afterwards.

After much deliberation, Lu Xia Tian decided to give up on this idea.

Besides the Lei Hai he had previously inhabited, there was nowhere else that could even offer him temporary shelter. Lu Xia Tian moved around aimlessly without a clue as to where to go. To seek help from the Di Ji Luofu Palace That was obviously unrealistic. While the Di Ji Luofu Palace, if willing to intervene, could indeed resolve the crisis instantly, he had just taken the Lei Po Zhi Tong from them. Both sides had even fought before. The other party would be insane to help him now. As for the Nine-turn Dragon Seal Dharma King mentioned by Yan Ji, he was also completely missing. There was no way to borrow his power either.

As Lu Xia Tian fled at high speed, his mind raced through every dangerous place he had experienced in the depths of the Demon Realm. The ancient Buddha's secret realm where the Nine Turns Dragon Seal Dharma King resided, or even the mysterious snowstorm-ridden land from before, were all places that could help him escape pursuers. However, they were simply too far away. The powerful enemy was like a sword hanging over his head, and there was no time for him to reach those distant locations now.

Even getting out of the Demonic Abyss might not be possible if they are stopped by the opponent.

The Demonic Pool of Annihilation! A thought suddenly flashed through Lu Xia Tian's mind, this place was so dangerous that even an Immortal Monarch could be swallowed whole.

Lu Xiaoteng had previously gained some insights from the aura of Miefa Devil Pool, which led to an improvement in his strength. However, at that time, he also kept a safe distance from the Miefa Devil Pool as much as possible and did not dare to venture any further.

To get rid of Old Man Kongming and the Three Saints of Fufeng, this distance is far from enough.

As he ventured closer to the Devourer's Pit, even he feared being consumed by its aura of destruction. The sheer danger was palpable, sending shivers down his spine.

Besides the Hellfire Pit, he was truly cornered at this point with nowhere left to go.

“Enough, if I'm going to die, I will. If the other party truly dares to come after me, even if I perish within the Demonic Law Pool, I will drag Elder Kongyin and the Three Saints of Fulong down with me!”

>

Lu Xiaitian gritted his teeth afterward, with a resolute look in his eyes. As he sped through the void, he suddenly changed direction and headed straight for the location of the former Demon-Extermination Pool.

The whereabouts of the aged man behind were unknown. Sensing Lu Xia Tian's aura, he simply followed suit, leaving marks along the way for the Three Saints of Fu Long to converge.

He has already done what he needed to do, I presume the Three Saints of Fulong won't dawdle too long.

What's going on Old man Kongyin chased after him all the way, but suddenly lost his perception of Lu Xiaottian. It was as if the other party had vanished from this space in an instant.

This was no ordinary surprise. The Old Man of Void searched his surroundings repeatedly with his divine sense, but afterward, his brows furrowed in worry as he still couldn't detect Lu XiaTian's aura.

On the contrary, I felt a terrifying aura of death. This aura made Elder Kongyin feel a severe threat, more dangerous than fighting against a peer of equal strength.

Even a reclusive elder would rather face a demon lord or a ghost lord than willingly approach such a perilous place. The other party would make him feel ancient, an utter sense of desolation emanating from his very soul. Though he had lost track of Lu Xiaoteng's presence, relying on the experience accumulated over his long life, he could judge that Lu Xiaoteng was desperate and had no choice but to hide in this deathly still dangerous place. This made things rather tricky.

Kongyin Elder had lived for too long, already past his prime. Compared to other beings of the same level, he possessed an air of weariness, a natural instinct that resisted this deathly atmosphere. This would affect his state of mind.

"Eastern Saint of the Dan, this is courting death." Elder Kongyin's face flickered with uncertainty. This was even more troublesome than when the other party hid within the Sea of Thunder.

Having already come this far, it felt a little too disheartening to just give up. The old man hesitated for a moment before gritting his teeth and continuing forward.

As expected, after walking for a while, Kongyin Elder sensed Lu Xiaoteng's presence. “Oriental Dan Saint, with your strength, you certainly can't survive in this place for too long. The True Dragon Clan was born from war, so why not end your life in a dignified manner, unleashing all your power to have a hearty battle with me.”

The old man in hiding shouted, his voice reverberating and traveling far.

"I've already had a battle with Fu Xiao and slain the demonic dragon celestial lord. I'm quite satisfied for now and have no desire to fight further. If you're itching for a fight, feel free to come after me."

Under normal circumstances, I would still fear you somewhat. However, you are quite old now, having lived for so long. You must be more afraid of the aura of death within the Demon Slayer Pit.

If you value your life, I advise you to leave as soon as possible. In this place, facing me, your chances of winning are very low.

“You impudent brat, I want to see how capable you really are.” The old man Kongyin was enraged upon hearing this. He had been looked down upon by Lu Xiaotien. He knew that what Lu Xiaotien said was indeed true. Although his cultivation was slightly higher than Lu Xiaotien’s, he was like the setting sun, while Lu Xiaotien was like a rising sun. His momentum and life force were far beyond his reach.

In this place thick with the breath of death, the constraint on the old man Kongyin was indeed much greater than that on Lu Xiaoteng.

Although Kong Yin knew that Lu Xiaotian was using a tactic of provoking anger, the old man was still angered. Even after stepping down from his position as Immortal Lord, he had never been treated with such disdain.

And he wasn't planning to stay in this strange place forever. He would just wait and see how things developed, then slip away when the situation became unfavorable.

Thinking to himself that if he were careful, there would be no danger to his life, the old man, Kong Yin, cautiously continued to approach the Annihilation Devil Pool.

In the distant, gray mist, a figure flickered in and out of sight. It was Lu Xiaitian standing with his hands behind his back, and the other party was just waiting for him there.

"Bold!" The Elder Kongyin's face darkened, thinking that Lu Xiaoteng was continuing to provoke him.

“You’re eager for battle, and if I don’t fulfill your wish, wouldn’t that be a disservice to your determination” Lu Xia Tian chuckled upon hearing this.

In fact, he didn't really want to provoke Kongyin Elder. If circumstances allowed, he would rather run far away from this monster as much as possible.

This Nether Demon Pool was not an ordinary danger. Even though Lu Xia Tian had experience cultivating near the Nether Demon Pool before, he was unwilling to get any closer at this time. Otherwise, he would face unpredictable risks.

I originally thought that setting up a trap would make the old man, Kongyin, hesitate. However, it had the opposite effect. Perhaps this monster overestimates his own magical powers and doesn't consider this danger serious at all.

Lu Xiaitian narrowed his eyes. If the old man was going to make a move now, he could only accept it. Going forward was too dangerous; even if he ended up dying in the Demonic Slayer Pool, he would drag the other party down with him.

The Empty-Concealed Elder stared intently at Lu Xiaottian, not rushing to make a move. Instead, he repeatedly observed the surroundings.

From Lu Xia Tian's emergence from the Thunder Sea, defeating the Dragon Army, slaying the Devil Dragon Celestial Venerable, to his escape to this place, every action of his is unexpected.

He seemed to be dancing on the edge of a knife, yet he calculated the reactions of him and the three holy dragons with perfect accuracy. He didn't dare underestimate this young man in the slightest.

Especially in such dangerous places, the slightest carelessness could easily lead to disaster.

Lu Xia Tian stood motionless across from his opponent. Neither side made a move, and at this moment, the distance into the Magic Pool of Annihilation was far greater than the last time. Lu Xia Tian was still fully adapting to the changes within. The old man Kong Yin was apparently doing the same.

"Very well, then let this old man see what you have up your sleeve." Before the words left his mouth, Kongyin Elder raised his hand and suddenly several palm shadows struck towards Lu Xiaitian in quick succession.

The shadow gives a very strange feeling, as if it were far away and yet right in front of you. It seems to be able to switch between these distances at will.

"Phantom Void Palm" Lu Xia Tian thought of all the rumors surrounding the old man Kongyin.

The palm strike before him was exactly the opponent's signature move from their famous battle. The intricacies of it were impossible to grasp without experiencing it firsthand.

Lu Xia Tian felt that no matter which direction he fled, he couldn't escape these palm shadows. They appeared to be only seven, but each one was erratic in its distance, coming and going unpredictably. If his judgment was even slightly off, he would be hit consecutively.

Though they had just begun to fight, the techniques used by Elder Kongyin were already extraordinary.

The old man's current tactic isn't to simply overpower Lu Xia Tian with brute force, but rather to gain an advantage through combat techniques and cultivation realm.

In this strange and dangerous environment, the old man couldn't help but reserve some strength to deal with any possible contingencies.

What truly threatened him was not Lu Xia Tian, but the eerie presence of the Devil-Exterminating Abyss.

Lu Xia Tian calmed down and closed his eyes directly. The opponent's Phantom Void Palm fluctuated unpredictably, with his own eyesight he couldn't tell the difference at all.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Unless there was a previous Eye of the Thunder Spirit, this kind of technique would be nowhere to hide in front of him. However, this hypothesis does not exist. At this time, if Lu Xia Tian wanted to break through the other party's methods, he could only rely on himself.

A wisp of law power emanated from Lu Xiaoteng's body, interweaving into a domain of the Five Elements. Lu Xiaoteng's divine sense, relying on law power, could also spread farther.

Seven palm shadows came at him in an orderly and well-coordinated manner. Lu Xia Tian unleashed a palm strike, the Demon Gang Dragon Seal! Bang bang bang.... A series of rapid and intense collisions echoed. The opponent's palm shadows were shattered, and Lu Xia Tian's figure swayed back and forth. In the first exchange, the old man Kong Yin unsurprisingly had the upper hand.

>of him, they were just two nascent soul early stage cultivators, and a ten-rank monster. Moreover, the opponent had escaped from the jaws of the demon python, he must have suffered significant losses....
