Chapter 49: Escape
Xiao Lin's mind was spinning rapidly. He knew very well that it was a dream to kill three high-level Qi-refining cultivators by himself. After the three people appeared, he actually had the idea of retreating, but he knew that it was impossible to leave safely. At least one or two of them had to be severely injured to have some hope.
The enchanting woman in front of him had the lowest cultivation among the three and was also the best target. The reason why he did not use the Shining Shield to block the attack of the silver hairpin was to catch her off guard and severely injure her. Of course, it would be best if he could kill her.
As the enchanting woman's spell became more and more urgent, Xiao Lin's eyes flashed with cold light, and then he quickly shot at the enchanting woman. At the same time, two mini fireballs condensed in the palms of his hands, flashing with orange-red halos.
The enchanting woman saw Xiao Lin shooting towards her, and a hint of disdain appeared in her eyes. The silk scarf floating above her head turned and blocked her chest. At the same time, with her cold snort, a ball of mud suddenly appeared under Xiao Lin's feet, and the mud bound his feet in an instant, making him unable to move at all.
"Basic earth spell mud binding?" Xiao Lin's face showed horror, while the enchanting woman's face bloomed with a smile.
"Haha, dying under my sister's silver hairpin is also a worthy death for you."
But immediately afterwards, the smile on the enchanting woman's face suddenly froze, and a series of fireballs about a foot in size suddenly emerged from Xiao Lin's hand, forming a string and shooting towards her.
The enchanting woman immediately seemed to have seen a ghost, and exclaimed: "Great Perfection Fireball Spell, you actually practiced this basic spell to Great Perfection." However, it was definitely too late to dodge at this moment, so she could only bite the bullet and hope that the intermediate-level defensive magic weapon Panyunpa in front of her could block this attack for her.
Xiao Lin's face was as gloomy as water, and a subtle whirlwind flashed above his feet. These whirlwinds were like drills, tearing the soil that bound his feet apart in the blink of an eye, and he regained his freedom.
Almost without thinking, a green talisman flew out of his storage bag and burned in mid-air. Immediately afterwards, a black cloud of three feet in size appeared above the dark man and the scholar monk, and dozens of green lightning bolts as thick as a baby's arm shot out from the black cloud.
This immediately made the two of them flustered. They didn't seem to expect that the boy in front of them would actually activate the talisman in his hand. However, if this level of talisman was cast unexpectedly, it would indeed be possible to seriously injure the two of them. However, before they prepared to kill Xiao Lin, they had carefully studied the power of the primary attack spell of the Great Perfection level.
A trace of pain flashed across the scholar's face. He slapped the bag on his waist, and a yellow talisman flew out of it. This talisman flashed with a hazy green light and burned three feet above the two people's heads. Immediately afterwards, a five-foot-sized green giant shield appeared above the two people's heads.
Dozens of green lightning bolts as thick as thumbs all attacked the green giant shield, crackling and flashing with lightning, and the momentum was extremely scary.
However, Xiao Lin had no time to appreciate these. After throwing out the talisman, his face was covered with cold light, and his eyes were full of murderous intent. Even the enchanting woman was frightened by the murderous intent in his eyes. The sound of wind whistling came from Xiao Lin's feet, and his body suddenly turned into a green shadow like lightning, shooting towards the enchanting woman.
At the same time, two fireballs the size of a human head appeared on his palms again. The fireballs were purple-red and exuded an amazing hot breath.
"Boom boom boom" Several fireballs hit the silk handkerchief and exploded one after another. Although the silk handkerchief was a mid-level defensive magic weapon, under the bombardment of several great perfection-level fireballs, the yellow light was dim, and it turned into a palm-sized silk handkerchief again and fell to the ground.
The enchanting woman's face turned pale when she saw this scene. The two purple-red fireballs were getting bigger and bigger in her eyes. Almost without thinking, she slapped the storage bag on her waist. A faint green light just flashed from the storage bag. I don’t know what kind of magic weapon it is.
Suddenly, a lightning bolt fell from the sky and struck the enchanting woman's head directly. This time, her hair exploded and her face was charred. Her consciousness suddenly stopped. It was Xiao Lin's Great Perfection Level Thunder Zombie Technique.
The dark-skinned man and the scholar monk who saw this scene from afar couldn't help but change their faces. They each exclaimed, and ignored the fact that they were still trapped in the small thunderstorm technique. They attacked Xiao Lin almost at the same time. The dark-skinned man swung a huge axe, which was about ten feet long and flew towards Xiao Lin.
The scholar monk's hand flashed with green light, and a fist-sized green lightning ball was thrown over by him. Seeing the green lightning ball, Xiao Lin's face turned pale. If he really killed the enchanting woman in front of him, he would not be able to avoid the attack of the dark-skinned man and the scholar monk. If he dodged, although he could temporarily guarantee his safety, the final result would most likely be death in the hands of the three people.
His thoughts turned several times in an instant, and a look of determination appeared in Xiao Lin's eyes. He completely ignored the giant axe attack launched by the dark-skinned man and the palm thunder of the great perfection-level lightning spell cast by the scholar-cultivator. He threw the two fireballs in his hands directly at the chest of the enchanting woman.
"Boom boom" the sound of the fireball exploding was like thunder. The enchanting woman barely groaned. The pale yellow light shield that burst out of her body was torn apart by the fireball before it could condense into shape. The violent explosion, coupled with the incredible temperature, turned the enchanting woman into ashes in an instant, leaving only a storage bag and a silver hairpin shining on the ground.
Xiao Lin casually picked up the storage bag on the ground, but did not have time to pick up the silver hairpin, because the two attacks had already reached him. Three feet in front of him, three feet-long shields emitting a bright green light suddenly appeared, side by side, blocking Xiao Lin in front of him.
The giant axe slammed into the shining shield fiercely. The first small shield shattered almost instantly, followed by the second one, but after smashing the two shining shields, the giant axe also ran out of mana and dissipated.
But then the ball of lightning exploded in front of the third small shield. The lightning instantly tore the third small shield, and then directly tore the protective spiritual light on Xiao Lin's body, hitting his chest fiercely.
"Puff" Xiao Lin spurted out a mouthful of blood, and felt as if his chest was hit by a huge hammer. His whole body was burning with pain, and even the mana in his body seemed to be blocked. This made his face change drastically, and he hurriedly threw a large Huiyuan pill into his mouth. As the spiritual power dispersed, the mana in his body rolled and condensed again.
Without thinking, he threw several head-sized fireballs at the dark man and the scholar monk, and then patted his storage bag, and a red halo emerged from it. In the halo, there was a palm-sized jade pendant, which was spinning.
A look of determination flashed across Xiao Lin's face, and he suddenly opened his mouth and spit out a mouthful of blood, which sprayed directly onto the jade pendant. Immediately afterwards, the jade pendant glowed red, and at the same time, Xiao Lin used his full-fledged wind control technique, and a green light wrapped around Xiao Lin and rushed directly into the air.
"Want to run?" The dark-skinned man's face changed, and his eyes were full of fierce light. He threw the giant axe in his hand into the air, and the giant axe grew three points larger again. As it spun, several giant axe shadows flew towards Xiao Lin in the air.
But when several giant axe shadows barely caught up with Xiao Lin, a ball of blood suddenly wrapped around Xiao Lin, and after a flash, he went out more than ten feet, and in the blink of an eye, he was hundreds of feet away. In a moment, he disappeared into the sky, and his figure disappeared.
Seeing this scene, even the scholar monk was stunned. He and the dark-skinned man looked at each other. After the lightning above their heads dissipated, the slightly embarrassed two people smiled bitterly at the same time.
"I didn't expect that a guy at the sixth level of Qi Refining could actually cultivate four basic spells of the Great Perfection level, and also possess such a perverted secret technique. It's incredible." With a sigh, the scholar monk said. He knew that it was meaningless to chase him now. The other party's Great Perfection level of Wind Controlling Technique was already beyond their reach. Now, with the blessing of the blood light, his speed doubled. Unless he can successfully build a foundation, there is hope to catch up.
"Good boy, with the three of us working together, he was able to escape, and Fellow Daoist Wu also lost his life for this." The dark-skinned man also had a depressed expression on his face.
"But I saw that his strange secret technique contained blood light. It seems that the man paid a heavy price for performing this secret technique. I think it will not last long. We chase him from behind, maybe we can catch him." After thinking about it, the scholar monk showed a look of realization on his face and said.
"Yes, and he was injured by Brother Xia's palm lightning. Even if he didn't die, his vitality must be seriously damaged. In addition, he forced to use that strange secret technique. I think he can't run far. We may still have time to catch up with him now." He walked gently to the place where the woman fell, picked up the silver hairpin from the ground, and threw it into the storage bag. After doing all this, the scholar monk came to the dark man with a calm face, ignoring the dissatisfaction in the dark man's eyes. A moment later, two rays of light rose from Shuiyun Valley and flew towards the direction where Xiao Lin disappeared. As expected by the two, Xiao Lin's situation at this moment was indeed not good. His internal organs were injured by the palm lightning of the scholar monk. Along the way, Xiao Lin felt his heart burning, and blood was spilling from the corners of his mouth from time to time. In this case, forcibly using the wind control technique and activating the Fire Cloud Pendant to increase the speed of his wind control technique has made him a spent force. However, he had no intention of stopping to heal his wounds. The two men could have expected his current condition and would surely chase him closely. So along the way, Xiao Lin activated the function of the Fire Cloud Pendant twice and flew more than 300 miles before landing in an inconspicuous valley. He found a cave and went in.
After entering the cave, Xiao Lin meditated directly into the spiritual wood space. He sat next to the sapling and began to check his injuries. Although he had expected that his condition would not be very good, he still felt bitter after the inspection.
His internal organs were damaged, and his qi and blood were seriously depleted. In addition, the large consumption of mana made his Dantian mana unstable. There were signs of the sixth level of the realm being shaken. This really surprised Xiao Lin. He swallowed two Da Hui Yuan Dan along the way to avoid the exhaustion of mana. Now it seems that if it were not for these two Da Hui Yuan Dan, he would have fallen to the fifth level of Qi Refining.
