All of this happened extremely quickly.
It felt like only a moment had passed.
A Ghost Spirit Sect disciple who was standing still suddenly turned deathly pale.
Another disciple gave him a playful look before following Xue Chengfeng out.
The disciple, whose face was deathly pale, shuddered at the sight and moved forward in fear and trepidation to follow.
"How could someone have come so close? We've clearly sent so many people to patrol the area..."
"hateful!"
At this moment.
Lin Xiuyuan was enveloped by that faint blackish-gray light. As if struck by lightning, intense pain seemed to come from the depths of his mind, causing his spirit to tremble and his soul to sway.
Unable to maintain the Wood Concealment Technique any longer, he fell straight down from mid-air.
"ah!"
Lin Xiuyuan clutched his head and struggled to get up, letting out a few painful growls. He quickly circulated his magic power to form a protective aura to resist the invisible, faint blackish-gray light covering him, only then did he feel a little better.
Lin Xiuyuan was shocked and turned around abruptly. He saw Wu Chengfeng urging the Ghost Banner to attack quickly and couldn't help but show a look of surprise and doubt.
"What kind of magical artifact is this? No, it should be a magic weapon!"
Ordinary magical artifacts only possess profound effects when crafted by highly skilled weapon refiners.
But it would never have such a powerful effect.
Judging from the style of its black banner, isn't it the Ghost Spirit Banner, the most famous banner of the Ghost Spirit Sect?
It is almost an essential magic weapon for cultivators above the Foundation Establishment stage in the Ghost Spirit Sect. It can be gradually cultivated into a magic weapon with different mysteries through different cultivation methods, and can even be used as the foundation of magic treasures. It is extremely powerful and sharp.
"He's actually a Foundation Establishment cultivator like Chen Xue? How unlucky..."
Lin Xiuyuan was both shocked and furious. He immediately threw several wooden magic talismans behind him to block the pursuit, and then quickly put a wind-controlling talisman on his body and fled on his sword.
To everyone's surprise, this was actually a Foundation Establishment stage demonic cultivator who had suppressed his cultivation level to come to the secret place.
For a moment, Lin Xiuyuan's face turned ashen, and he had no choice but to flee.
Fortunately, the opponent suppressed their cultivation level, and could only unleash a fraction of the power of their magic weapon, so it wouldn't be too outrageous.
Since his opponent possessed such a mysterious magical artifact, he could no longer use his escape technique to flee. He could only focus on flying forward on his sword, hoping not to be surrounded.
"A trivial skill!"
Wu Chengfeng snorted coldly. Seeing the wooden talisman floating in the air, extending vines and branches, he immediately urged his spirit sword to slash at it.
This sword is incredibly powerful, containing immense magical energy. As it strikes down, it unleashes beams of sword light, completely shattering the vines and branches.
However, since several wooden talismans erupted simultaneously, they stretched out in an endless array, with vines and branches extending out in a dense, continuous manner.
It did delay his progress.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lin Xiuyuan created some distance again, then used the Wood Concealment Technique to transform into a streak of green light. Using the power of wood element, he leaped and bounded between the trees, quickly escaping.
But not long after, Wu Chengfeng destroyed the wooden talismans and used some mysterious escape technique to catch up again, directly activating the Ghostly Banner.
Having had the experience before, Lin Xiuyuan understood that he could not resist the mysterious effects of such a magical artifact, so he decisively dispersed the Wood Concealment Technique, activated his magic power to form a protective aura, and then rode on his sword.
really!
At such a great distance, when the faint blackish-gray light spread over, it had little effect on him. Now, with the protective aura blocking it, it seemed to have almost no effect on him at all.
It made Lin Xiuyuan's mind waver for a moment, but he was still able to suppress it and continue to urge the spirit sword to break through the air.
At this point, Lin Xiuyuan would throw out wood magic talismans, or even water magic talismans, to form water snakes to intercept them. As for the golden sword talismans, they were of little use; unless thrown out in large quantities, they were practically useless as a barrier.
He had discovered this point during his previous battle with Chen Xue. The power of a few top-tier talismans would not pose an effective threat to such an existence. In the eyes of the opponent, a full-force attack would be enough to destroy it.
It would be better to combine the effects of the wood talisman with the water talisman to create a greater obstacle.
After this initial setback, Lin Xiuyuan continued to use the Wood Concealment Technique to escape at breakneck speed.
"So many top-tier talismans? These talismans seem quite extraordinary!"
Wu Chengfeng was surprised to find that the cultivator from the Nine Kingdoms Alliance in front of him, who appeared to be just a rogue cultivator with a weak aura and obviously a very weak foundation, possessed so many top-level talismans.
"Could it be that you come from a family of talisman masters? I'd like to see how many top-tier talismans you can use!"
Wu Chengfeng's expression changed slightly, and he couldn't help but snort coldly. He continued to urge his spirit sword, unleashing its powerful might and slashing down repeatedly, bursting forth with chilling sword light that rapidly shattered the power of the talisman.
Despite the obstacles, he possessed a mysterious escape technique, enabling him to quickly catch up and forcefully interrupt the escape technique of the rogue cultivator before him by activating his magical artifact.
In this way, they were able to keep up with Lin Xiuyuan and relentlessly pursue him.
However, during the chase, it seemed that this rogue cultivator had a considerable amount of talismans in reserve.
After several rounds, Lin Xiuyuan had already thrown out dozens of talismans...
At this point, we were getting closer and closer to the ridgeline.
"There really are that many talismans?" Wu Chengfeng narrowed his eyes, but there was no worry on his face, as if he was not afraid that Lin Xiuyuan could escape.
"I wonder how long this rogue cultivator has been hiding, and what he overheard! We absolutely cannot let him live, otherwise he'll ruin the grand plans of the elders, and I'll be in real trouble..."
Wu Chengfeng's face was grim and cold. Seeing that Lin Xiuyuan had used the Wood Concealment Technique again, he hurriedly used all his strength to break through the talisman power blocking his way and activated his magic weapon to forcibly interrupt his escape technique.
They relentlessly pursued Lin Xiuyuan, not letting him out of their sight for even a moment.
Soon, a look of joy appeared on Wu Chengfeng's face.
Because, two demonic cultivators appeared before Lin Xiuyuan!
It was a disciple of the Ghost Spirit Sect, who had been assigned to patrol the area and had arrived to intercept them.
"Get out of my way!"
Upon seeing this, Lin Xiuyuan's expression darkened. After swallowing a Spirit Gathering Pill, he immediately threw out a series of golden sword talismans forward.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
In an instant, it seemed as if invisible booming sounds exploded.
Suddenly, more than twenty golden swords rose up, gleaming with dazzling golden light, like a volley of arrows, carrying powerful spiritual energy fluctuations, heading towards the two Ghost Spirit Sect disciples who had suddenly appeared before them.
In an instant, a look of shock and anger appeared on the faces of the two Ghost Spirit Sect disciples.
He was still activating his sword technique, ready to launch an attack at any moment to intercept Lin Xiuyuan.
Suddenly, such a terrifying attack came, as powerful as the power of a Foundation Establishment cultivator, with an irresistible force.
