Chapter 396: Chapter 393: Escape to Ascend, Nascent Soul Pill
Swish swish!
Void flickers, Lu Xuanji is in escape mode.
The Heaven-Reaching Bridge is operating, the Profound Celestial Ladder is operating, then activating Vertical Earth Golden Light, accelerating into a stream of light and vanishing.
Originally planned to leverage Jin Xi’s power to repel formidable foes, but soon abandoned that.
Jin Xi couldn’t withstand it either.
As for heading to the Dan Yang Sect, that’s also unsuitable.
This Nascent Soul Eighth Layer cultivator is also a Dan Yang Sect cultivator.
He doesn’t believe this senior will spare him because they belong to the same sect.
"Is this my life tribulation?"
Lu Xuanji pondered.
"Lately, I’ve had too many fortuitous encounters, acquired numerous treasures, my cultivation progressed rapidly, reaching the edge of Nascent Soul at just over seven hundred years old. The advancement is too swift; destiny will bring calamity. This is using this Nascent Soul Eighth Layer cultivator to harm me. If I can overcome this tribulation, my cultivation will greatly advance; if not, I’ll perish on the spot due to the tribulation!"
The Celestial Destiny Ball is making deductions, the Tunneling One Map is making deductions, deducing the thread of life amidst the unknown, also deducing the changes in fate amidst the unknown.
In another fate line, he didn’t refine the Twenty-four Treasures, his combat power was lesser than now, yet could kill one, escape two.
The red-clothed female cultivator escaped, wasn’t killed by him.
After escaping, the red-clothed female cultivator didn’t inform her father, or perhaps the father knew but was too lazy to act, with no pursuit.
Weak power, no tribulation;
Strong power, instead has tribulation.
Fate’s variation amidst the unknown is indescribable.
A light flickers behind, perpetually pursuing, the Nascent Soul Eighth Layer cultivation is evident, white light flashes beneath the feet, speed increases, accelerating constantly, pursuing forth.
The speed is too fast.
The gap between them continuously narrows.
"Junior, if you release my daughter, I’ll spare your life!"
"Junior, once I catch up to you, I’ll surely flay you alive!"
"Junior, you’re certainly dead!"
"Junior, let’s see how long you can last!"
The Nascent Soul Great Cultivator sneered, pursuing forth, speed swift and stable, stamina enduring.
Yet surprisingly, this junior runs so fast, hiding great secrets, fueling his pursuit fervor.
Like this, one pursuing, one escaping, running far away, gradually departing Chu Country,
Gradually, heading towards the ocean.
The distance continuously shortens, not only just so, Lu Xuanji’s magical power is depleting, the massive magical power stored in the Heaven-Swallowing Cauldron is depleting bit by bit, seemingly unable to hold much longer.
Splish splash!
Lu Xuanji transforms into a stream of light, entering the ocean.
At the moment of entering the ocean, aura retracts, entering the Heaven-Evasion Coffin.
Heaven-Evasion Coffin, one of the treasures he refined, can thus mask his aura.
Seems inadequate, also activating the Chaos Map, Celestial Destiny Ball, etc., also operating, aura vanishing.
...
Above the ocean, the cultivator’s aura flickers, gazing at the ocean, frowning.
"Damn it, I’m a Fire Element Celestial Spirit Root, entering the ocean is extremely disadvantageous, not only does my combat power get suppressed, but my perception also decreases!"
Standing above the ocean, Yuan Ming slightly frowned, a flicker of killing intent in his eyes.
Just recently, he sensed his daughter’s distress signal, arrived at the scene after five breaths, but his daughter was killed, only her Nascent Soul sealed, pursued that junior to the ocean.
Above the ocean, extremely unfavorable for him.
Back then, he was a dual spirit root of fire and earth, but after entering the Golden Core chose the specialized path, abandoned the Earth Spirit Root, transformed into pure Fire Spirit Root, under this mode, cultivation speed fast, combat power strong. But when facing the ocean, when battling underwater, strength is insufficient.
"Junior, do you think this way, you can escape?"
Yuan Ming’s eyes flashed a hint of killing intent.
Opening the storage bag, a flying ship appeared, entering the ship.
The flying ship moves like a sea fish, swiftly swimming, following the trail of aura, proceeding onwards.
...
Glub glub!
Upon entering the ocean, Lu Xuanji slightly sighed with relief.
Sensing the cultivator hesitating, evidently fearing the water.
But soon, controlling the flying ship, entering the ocean searching, but perception greatly impaired.
Lu Xuanji activated the Heaven-Evasion Coffin, repeatedly rapidly moving, evading.
But continually failing to escape the tracking.
"That red-clothed female cultivator’s Nascent Soul..."
Lu Xuanji suddenly thought of something, activating the Chaos Map, saw inside a one-foot-high Nascent Soul sealed, resembling a miniature red-clothed female cultivator.
"Fellow Daoist, may I have your name?"
Lu Xuanji asked.
"I am called Yuan Xiyue," said the red-clothed female cultivator, "Fellow Daoist, spare my life! If you kill me, it will be endless enmity. If you release me, my father will stop pursuing you!"
"Really?"
Lu Xuanji said, "I think it’s better to eliminate the root, refine your Nascent Soul!"
"To refine my Nascent Soul, requires at least ten days, do you have that time?"
Yuan Xiyue said.
"Really? I don’t believe it!"
Lu Xuanji grabbed the Nascent Soul, threw it into the Heaven-Swallowing Cauldron, activated Pure Yang True Flame to burn, refine the Nascent Soul.
Suddenly, waves of screams arose.
But Lu Xuanji slightly frowned, at this moment Yuan Xiyue operated her Nascent Soul, a flicker of immortal aura within, constantly resisting Pure Yang True Flame, resisting the Heaven-Swallowing Cauldron’s refining, refinement is very slow.
At least five days and five nights needed to refine the Nascent Soul.
