Chapter 61 Scattered! Ambushed on the way!
Chen Jie strode out of the coffin shop, not lingering for a moment longer.
He hurried straight out of Longxi Town.
This place is a melting pot of all sorts of people, and danger lurks everywhere.
Only by rushing back to the territory of the White Bone Sect can we be truly safe.
Just as I stepped out of the main road of Longxi Town, a familiar figure came into view.
The man wore a black straw hat and had two tufts of mustache stuck to the corners of his mouth.
It was the same young monk who had disguised himself at the auction earlier.
It seems that after bidding for the "Longevity Pill for Bone Depletion," the young man was in a great mood and had no sense of vigilance whatsoever.
After leaving the black market auction, he immediately summoned a flying sword magic weapon and waved it with his hand.
Swish-!
The flying sword swelled in the wind, its spiritual light gleaming.
The young man leaped onto the sword, full of youthful vigor.
He soared into the air on his sword, flying straight towards the White Bone Sect.
"Huh? This kid is also heading towards the White Bone Sect. Could he be a disciple of that sect too?"
Chen Jie was secretly surprised.
"That's not right. The White Bone Sect disciples cultivate amidst brutal battles and constant danger. How could they have such naive disciples?"
"Does he really think his clumsy disguise can fool everyone?"
Chen Jie was completely baffled.
If this young man were truly a disciple of the White Bone Sect, with his temperament, possessing a huge amount of spirit stones yet being completely unprepared, he wouldn't have survived until now.
Inside and outside the sect, there are ruthless and vicious people everywhere.
With his naive appearance, if he were to wander around the market, he would probably be devoured, leaving not even bones behind.
The disciples of the White Bone Sect are all veterans who have fought their way through mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
With such a mindset, how did he manage to be promoted to an inner disciple?
Based on this kid's cultivation level, according to the rules of the White Bone Sect, he should have become an inner disciple.
As Chen Jie pondered to himself, several whooshing sounds suddenly rang out.
In the shadows at the intersection of Longxi Town, several dark figures took to the air one after another, unleashing their magical artifacts. They hovered at a distance behind the boy, silently following him.
Obviously,
This boy had already been closely watched.
Moreover, he was being targeted not just by one group of people, but by cultivators at the late stage of the Qi Condensation Realm.
Even before he entered the auction hall, he was already being targeted by countless divine senses.
At this moment, getting out unscathed is easier said than done.
Chen Jie watched quietly from the shadows for a moment, then shook his head helplessly.
Regardless of which branch of the White Bone Sect this young man belongs to, he is likely to meet a grim fate tonight.
Whether he survives or not depends entirely on how resilient he is.
After confirming that no one was watching him, Chen Jie emerged from his hiding place and continued his journey towards the outskirts of Longxi Town.
He was always cautious, and when he reached the intersection, he deliberately took a detour to check the surroundings repeatedly.
Whoosh!
After confirming that no one was following or watching him.
He abandoned the wide main road and chose to travel along secluded paths, his figure quickly disappearing into the darkness.
along the way,
He stopped several times, hiding in the shadows to look back and investigate.
Be careful at every step, leaving no room for error.
After traveling at high speed for more than thirty miles, just as they were about to enter the territory under the jurisdiction of the White Bone Sect, danger suddenly descended.
Whoosh—!
Two incredibly fast figures suddenly burst from behind, rushing straight towards him.
Chen Jie's heart skipped a beat, and he instantly became alert!
He quickly changed direction to test the waters, trying to see if the other party was just passing by or had come specifically to hunt him down.
next moment,
His expression suddenly changed drastically.
The two figures showed no intention of moving forward; they relentlessly pursued him, clinging to him tightly.
"Damn it, we were so careful, and we still got targeted!"
He believed he had taken the most precautions possible by carefully detouring and repeatedly probing.
Unexpectedly, after going through three twists and turns, he still couldn't escape those who coveted him.
Having confirmed that he was the target, Chen Jie took a deep breath.
He forced himself to suppress his agitated emotions and remain calm.
boom!
He raised his hand and summoned the Soul-Splitting Blade, his magical power rapidly circulating throughout his body.
Since breaking through to the mid-stage of the Qi Condensation Realm, he has been able to fly on his sword as long as he consumes spirit stones to activate his magic power.
Although their speed is not as fast as that of a late-stage Qi Condensation cultivator, it is far faster than fleeing on foot.
With the infusion of magical power, the Soul Splitter Blade instantly grew larger.
Chen Jie leaped onto the Soul-Splitting Blade, turned around, and fled at full speed.
At the same time, he glanced back at the two men chasing him, his expression growing increasingly solemn.
Of the two figures behind him, one was wearing a gray robe.
It was the cultivator who had competed with him for the thousand-year-old Yin Wood at the black market auction.
Chen Jie was surprised to find that this person had accomplices.
The enemy deliberately took a different route, detouring half an hour later from another intersection, in order to ambush and kill them halfway.
"What methods did they use to leave tracking marks on me?"
Chen Jie was startled.
He disguised himself, concealed his presence, and took detours meticulously.
But in the end, they still couldn't escape the tracking technique.
After all,
It was only because his own cultivation was insufficient and his strength was too weak that the other party dared to so blatantly ambush him halfway.
At this thought, Chen Jie's anger surged, and a murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
While using his sword to fly away and create distance, he quickly thought of a strategy to counter the enemy.
The two people behind them were moving extremely fast, and the distance between them was constantly closing.
Chen Jie clearly sensed that both of them were at the seventh level of the Qi Condensation Realm, and their strength was comparable to that of Hou San, whom he had killed last time.
The difficulty of fighting two opponents alone is self-evident.
But Chen Jie's strength has increased several times since he killed Hou San.
Although he was wary, he was absolutely fearless.
However, his cultivation level was three minor realms lower than his opponent's, and his magical power was inherently weak.
Such continuous flight consumes a great deal of energy. Even without engaging in combat, his magical power will eventually be exhausted, leaving him at the mercy of others.
We can no longer keep running away; we must take the initiative to change tactics and deliver a head-on blow to the enemy.
Whoosh-!
Chen Jie suddenly changed his flight direction and headed straight for a stone wall area beside the path.
The area is characterized by towering cliffs.
The mountainside is dotted with dozens of natural caves, which are deep, dark, and have complex terrain, making them ideal for hiding.
After entering the cave area, the surroundings instantly became pitch black.
Chen Jie immediately suppressed his aura and used the Breath Concealment Technique to hide all fluctuations in his aura.
He hid behind a huge rock deep inside the cave, holding his breath and remaining motionless.
In a short while,
Two figures broke through the air and landed in front of the stone wall, putting away their magical artifacts and scanning the surroundings.
The person in the lead was indeed the gray-robed monk who had bid against him at the auction.
He was accompanied by a woman wearing black, tight-fitting leather armor.
The woman has a hot and slender figure, showing off her curves!
Although she was wearing a straw hat and her face was obscured, one could tell from her figure that she was certainly beautiful.
Moreover, her aura was powerful, and her combat strength was even stronger than that of the gray-robed cultivator.
Of the two, the beautiful female cultivator was clearly the one in charge.
Inside the cave,
Chen Jie concealed all his presence, hiding behind the boulder and daring not to make the slightest move.
"Senior sister, that person clearly went into this cave, so how did their presence suddenly vanish into thin air?"
The gray-robed cultivator whispered his report to the beautiful female cultivator, his posture obsequious and humble, trying his best to please her.
"But he can't escape; I gave him a poisonous drug beforehand!"
"If he uses his magic power within a day, he will inevitably reveal his whereabouts; there will be nowhere for him to hide."
Chen Jie closed his eyes and thought back, and suddenly realized the truth.
Previously, when I went to the backstage of the auction to make a transaction, I was passing through the passageway.
I was lightly touched by something for no reason, but I didn't feel anything unusual at the time, so I didn't think much of it.
It turned out that the gray-robed cultivator had secretly sprinkled Thousand-Mile Powder on him back then, leaving it on his body.
"I was careless! I should have changed my clothes as soon as I left Longxi Town."
Chen Jie was filled with remorse.
If he had changed his clothes in time, even if he had been poisoned by the Thousand Mile Powder, the other party would have had no way to track him down.
