Chapter 276: Relentless Pursuit

Sha Hao waited for the white eagle to land on his shoulder. He saw that the white eagle had a burnt claw and sparse feathers on its tail. It was obvious that it had suffered a lot in the chase with Yuan Ming's winged bird.

Sha Hao had no time to comfort the white eagle. He raised his hand and a fiery red flying boat appeared in front of him. The boat was shaped like a swimming fish and was about two feet long. There were two green round wheels at the tail, standing on both sides.

Sha Hao jumped onto the strange-shaped flying boat. The fiery red flying boat immediately burst into a dazzling red light. The green round wheel at the stern also whirred and spun rapidly, shooting out two thick green light beams backwards. The red light and green light intertwined, as if wind and fire complemented each other, and the spiritual power fluctuations increased greatly.

The fiery red flying boat flew into the air like a gust of wind and lightning, and its speed was far faster than the white jade shuttle. The distance between the two quickly closed.

"Thunderstorm!" Yuan Ming looked at the winged bird walking side by side, took out a purple spiritual fruit and threw it over. Thunderstorm caught the spiritual fruit in mid-air and swallowed it, making a joyful cry.

He threw another storage ring into Thunderstorm's mouth, and a soul crow flew out of his sleeve, surrounded by a magical power, and also sank into Thunderstorm's body.

"Go." Yuan Ming ordered.

Thunderstorm spread its wings and rushed into the sky, turned around and flew back, spitting out a purple lightning at Sha Hao and the fiery red flying boat.

Sha Hao was not in a hurry, raised his hand and cast a spell, and a layer of crystal clear red light shield suddenly appeared around the fiery red flying boat.

The purple lightning hit it, making a loud thunder-like sound, but the red light shield only trembled and stabilized.

Seeing that the attack failed, Thunderstorm made a sharp cry, spread its wings and pounced on Sha Hao, with a trace of lightning on his claws, as if he wanted to use his claws to get back the ground just now.

Seeing the thunderstorm rushing closer and closer to him, Sha Hao's eyes flashed with joy.

He had long seen that this winged bird was extraordinary, and had asked the white eagle to catch it before.

If the thunderstorm had been launching lightning attacks from a distance, he might not have been able to catch it with its lightning-fast speed. Now that the winged bird was approaching by itself, he had too many ways to subdue it.

While thinking, Sha Hao pointed at his eyebrows, and a powerful soul wave spread out, covering the thunderstorm.

However, at this moment, Yuan Ming's soul crow controlled the magic power and activated the talismans stored in the storage ring.

There was a wave in front of the thunderstorm, and more than ten talismans appeared out of thin air.

And the thunderstorm turned and flew towards Yuan Ming again.

These talismans were of different colors, and each of them burst out with quite powerful magic power fluctuations, all of which were medium-grade talismans.

Sha Hao's expression changed drastically and he hurriedly controlled the red flying boat to dodge to the side, and the flying boat immediately appeared with a red light shield.

However, it was too late. A green light flashed in front of Lei Yu, and all the talismans were activated.

Boom!

Lightning, fireballs, wind dragons, rain swords and other spells fell from the sky and hit the red flying boat. The power of the spells poured down and submerged the red flying boat.

Although the red light shield of the flying boat was strong, it could not withstand the combined attack of more than ten medium-grade talismans. After a few flashes, it collapsed.

There was a continuous crackling sound. The huge flying boat ignited a fireball and turned into fragments, falling downwards.

Yuan Ming took advantage of the fall of Sha Hao's flying boat and controlled the white jade shuttle to continue flying forward.

Soon, Lei Yu flew back, holding a storage ring in his claws, and spit out a soul crow.

Thanks to the fact that there is no shortage of spirit stones now, Yuan Ming purchased a lot of talismans. This tactic of using soul crows in conjunction with spirit beasts to cast spells at a long distance is extremely concealed. Yuan Ming has used it many times before and it has worked every time.

As a soul cultivator, Sha Hao would naturally rely on his transformed soul to control his magic power from a distance, but he didn't expect to use it in this way, and was caught off guard.

The burning red flying boat exploded, and the hot flames engulfed everything within a dozen feet. Sha Hao had nothing to rely on and fell from the sky.

The white eagle accelerated from top to bottom to catch up with Sha Hao, and circled to catch the falling Sha Hao.

Both the eagle and the man were seriously injured. Many feathers on the wings of the white eagle were burned, and its claws were burned black. Sha Hao's clothes were torn and looked very embarrassed.

"Chase!" Sha Hao patted the white eagle under him and took out a pill for the white eagle to take.

The white eagle was in high spirits, flapped its wings and moved forward, chasing Yuan Ming.

However, the white eagle was seriously injured, and its flying speed was far slower than the red flying boat, and much slower than the white jade shuttle. It was soon left behind for a long distance.

But Sha Hao did not give up, and still chased after him.

Yuan Ming saw that Sha Hao's ghost was still lingering, and his heart sank.

After a fierce battle, he actually had very little mana left. Now he was controlling the white jade shuttle, and even with the spiritual stones, he couldn't last too long.

Yuan Ming's eyes flashed, and he reached out to the spirit beast bag where the Qingyun crane was stored.

This crane didn't fly fast, but it was good to buy some time to recover its mana.

"Ga ga..." Lei Yu's cry came from the side, and conveyed the idea of ​​being willing to give Yuan Ming a ride.

Although Lei Yu was only a first-level upper-level, his intelligence was comparable to that of a second-level spirit beast, and he could have a simple communication with Yuan Ming.

Yuan Ming hesitated. Lei Yu was only two years old and his body was only a few feet long. He had never thought of riding this bird. He had always planned to wait until it advanced to the second level before considering making this bird his mount. Now it was too early.

However, Sha Hao was pressing behind him, and it wouldn't take long for him to catch up.

"Then I'll trouble you." Yuan Ming jumped to Lei Yu's back and put away the shuttle at the same time.

Lei Yu's body sank, but soon stabilized, and with a sharp cry that pierced the sky, his wings flashed with lightning and he shot forward with a whoosh.

This speed was much faster than the white jade shuttle, and everything around him quickly retreated.

Yuan Ming was surprised and delighted. He knew that Lei Yu could fly fast, but he didn't expect that he could fly so fast.

Lei Yu intended to show off in front of Yuan Ming. The lightning on his wings became brighter, and his speed increased a lot. He soon disappeared at the end of his sight, leaving Sha Hao behind completely.

Seeing this, Yuan Ming finally let go of his worries. He sat cross-legged on Lei Yu's back, took out a recovery pill and swallowed it. At the same time, he took out two wood-attribute medium-grade spirit stones and held them in his hands to absorb the spiritual power.

His mana recovered quickly, and he planned his next move.

There was no reply to the message to Xi Ying, and it was obvious that Xi Ying was thousands of miles away.

Sha Hao was led here by himself again. As long as Xu Tian's luck was not bad, it should be no problem to escape the trial place safely.

Shengye Sect lost so many disciples this time, and Lu Shen also died here. They would never give up. Sha Hao's figure and appearance had been exposed, and it was probably impossible for him to show off again.

Yuan Ming's only worry was whether Sha Hao would expose his identity as a soul cultivator. The Central Plains cultivation world was even more hostile to soul cultivators, and almost everyone wanted to kill them. If Sha Hao was caught and his identity as a soul cultivator was publicized, he would also suffer.

Although Lei Yu flew fast, he had not grown up after all. The battle with the White Eagle had just consumed a lot of energy. In less than a quarter of an hour, he began to lose strength and his speed slowed down significantly.

Yuan Ming did not force Lei Yu, put him into the spirit beast bag to rest, and summoned the Qingyun Crane to continue on his way.

Not long after flying, he suddenly changed color and turned to look behind him.

A white dot appeared in the sky behind him and quickly caught up. It was Sha Hao.

"So fast?" Yuan Ming was surprised.

The winged bird flew very fast. It had just left Sha Hao behind by at least dozens of miles. During this period, it changed direction many times, far exceeding the range of Sha Hao's consciousness. How did Sha Hao catch up?

But it was useless to think too much now. Yuan Ming immediately put away the Qingyun Crane and replaced it with the white jade shuttle to speed up.

His mana had recovered 20% to 30%, and he used all his strength to drive the white jade shuttle, and soon got rid of Sha Hao again.

After all this, Yuan Ming's mana was almost gone, so he had to summon the Qingyun Crane again to take over, and he sat cross-legged on the crane's back to recover his mana.

With the previous experience, Yuan Ming summoned water to wash all parts of his body, then took out the gray cloak and put it on, and also cast a spell to hide the breath on the Qingyun Crane under him, eliminating all possible chances of being tracked.

But half a quarter of an hour later, Sha Hao caught up again.

Yuan Ming secretly exclaimed that it was weird, and once again used the white jade shuttle to escape, using his spiritual sense to carefully explore all parts of his body.

Sha Hao caught up with him twice accurately, so there must be a way to lock his position.

In the world of immortal cultivation, there is a secret method of using mana or spiritual sense to mark the enemy. Could it be that in the previous fight, Sha Hao unknowingly used this method?

However, Yuan Ming explored three times in succession, but still found nothing.

He checked his clothes, white jade shuttle and other items, and even checked Lei Yu, Hua Zhi and King Kong in the spirit beast bag, but he also found no clues.

Yuan Ming had no choice but to run for his life.

In this way, the two chased and fled in Yunluo Mountains, playing hide-and-seek.

The speed of the white eagle spirit beast was not as fast as Yuan Ming's white jade shuttle, and it was thrown away every time it approached. However, this person was like a piece of sticky candy. No matter what means Yuan Ming used to hide his tracks, it was ineffective.

As long as Yuan Ming did not use the white jade shuttle to travel, Sha Hao would catch up quickly.

Half a day later.

Yuan Ming once again threw Sha Hao away, his face gloomy.

I don't know what method Sha Hao used, but he actually increased the speed of the white eagle spirit beast a lot. Although it was still not as good as the white jade shuttle, it took him faster and faster each time.

Yuan Ming had no choice but to take pills continuously, and his dantian was already aching from the overload of mana again and again.

Lei Yu's physical strength and demonic power were too much, and he has not recovered yet. He could not take him away again, and the long-term overdraft was too much for his weak body.

"I can't go on like this, otherwise I will be caught up by Sha Hao before I escape from Yunluo Mountain Range!" Yuan Ming calculated a countermeasure and looked down.

His eyes suddenly lit up, and he flew down and soon landed in front of a valley.

This valley was in the shape of a gourd mouth. The further you go in, the narrower the space. The valley was full of trees, covering the sky and the sun. It was obvious that it was a good place to hide.

Yuan Ming went in and his figure quickly disappeared.

Not long after, Sha Hao flew over on a white eagle and landed in front of the valley.

"Humph, fight with me? Let's see where you can run!" He put away the white eagle, looked inside, and pointed at his brow, and blood suddenly appeared.
