Having decided to leave the demon's lair and fight it out, the two set off immediately after leaving the secret place as soon as possible.
In less than an hour, they successfully returned to the exit of the passage. The journey was fraught with danger but without any real danger. However, the two did not let their guard down. They first recovered their magical power and adjusted themselves to their peak condition.
Although demonic cultivators cannot conquer the entire secret realm, most of this demonic lair should be safe. However, there will likely be demonic cultivators guarding the outer perimeter, so trying to escape easily is undoubtedly wishful thinking.
However, both of them were confident in their own abilities and were naturally not afraid.
However, just as they were about to leave, Chen Xue suddenly said, "Fellow Daoist Lin, wait a moment. If we stay together, we're more likely to be surrounded. It would be better to escape separately. I can draw most of your attention away, so, about that Netherworld Orchid..."
Lin Xiuyuan was slightly taken aback. After a moment of contemplation, he decisively took out the Netherworld Orchid, removed one of its petals, put it away, and handed the Netherworld Orchid to Chen Xue.
Escaping from this place is quite dangerous; it's safer to leave Youminglan with the other party. After all, she is a Foundation Establishment cultivator suppressing her cultivation level, and obviously won't be easily captured by a demonic cultivator.
Even if something unexpected happens, the Netherworld Orchid in Lin Xiuyuan's hand is enough to exchange for a high-grade Foundation Establishment Pill.
Seeing Lin Xiuyuan's decisive action, Chen Xue was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said:
"Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Lin, everything I promised will be delivered as agreed after we get out. I will be drawing most of your attention later. If you encounter any danger, you can send me a message. Unless you are surrounded by dozens or hundreds of Qi Refining stage cultivators, I can escape without any problem!"
"That would be best!"
Lin Xiuyuan smiled and nodded.
The two then rode their swords out of the passage, immediately separated by a distance, and flew forward at high speed, skimming close to the ground.
Not long after, two powerful auras appeared in their senses.
Looking back, they saw two streaks of light, radiating dazzling brilliance, rushing after them like shooting stars.
"really!"
Lin Xiuyuan narrowed his eyes. Sure enough, there were demonic cultivators on guard. Fortunately, there were only two of them. They seemed to have strong auras, but he figured they shouldn't be a prodigy like Wu Chengfeng. He felt relieved.
Next, pay close attention to the demonic cultivators blocking your way ahead; otherwise, leaving this place shouldn't be too difficult.
Immediately, their two streaks of light separated and headed in different directions to avoid being blocked by the demonic cultivators and having their attention diverted.
Chen Xueqiang is clearly superior and will likely attract more attention.
Next, Lin Xiuyuan only needs to run to the mountains and forests to use the Wood Concealment Technique to quickly escape the pursuit.
Upon realizing this, Lin Xiuyuan immediately increased his speed.
However, what happened next startled Lin Xiuyuan.
The red-glowing light behind him was moving faster and faster, seemingly far surpassing his own speed.
It seems that his mastery of sword-flying escape techniques is extremely high.
Lin Xiuyuan's heart tightened. Judging from the current situation, he would be caught up by the other party before he could escape this desert and enter the mountains and forests.
At that moment, Lin Xiuyuan's expression hardened slightly. He immediately took out several talismans and activated six of them at once, intending to delay the demonic cultivators behind him.
Most of them were high-level earth and wood magic talismans, forming rocks that fell down, interspersed with two top-level wood magic talismans, thus forming a net-like structure of countless vines and branches, intending to delay the demonic cultivators' pursuit and buy time to escape to the mountains and forests.
However, a voice soon came from behind.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, it's been a long time. Don't be alarmed. Shall we go up ahead and talk?"
Lin Xiuyuan was slightly taken aback. Hearing the somewhat familiar voice, a look of surprise appeared on his face, and he was filled with doubt and uncertainty.
However, after a moment's thought, he stopped the rock attack formed by the earth magic talisman, which further weakened the power of the wood magic talisman.
in this way.
The beam of light behind him then slowed down, maintaining a roughly constant speed, and hovered at a distance.
Lin Xiuyuan, filled with doubt and astonishment, buried himself in flying on his sword.
Before long, after the hazy yellow sand passed, a lush green land appeared.
After Lin Xiuyuan disappeared into the mountains and forests, he descended with his escape light and calmly turned around to look.
The dazzling red light followed closely behind, arriving several feet away.
As the red light faded, a graceful and alluring figure gradually appeared.
Looking at that photo, though it was rather ordinary, it appeared somewhat alluring under the heavy makeup, and it also gave off a sense of familiarity.
But the scene before me felt strangely familiar, as if it were just an illusion...
The alluring woman, exuding a seductive aura, was holding a thick, python-like iron chain, which held two hideous and terrifying molten corpses, creating a highly contradictory feeling.
The obsequious and sycophantic demeanor I remember from the past is now completely different.
His cultivation level underwent a tremendous change, actually reaching the Great Perfection of the Thirteenth Level of Qi Refining?
Judging from these clothes, could they be members of the Hehuan Sect?
"What exactly happened to Liu Rong? The change is too drastic, and..."
Lin Xiuyuan was slightly taken aback. She only had the aptitude of four spiritual roots, so how could she have reached this level all at once?
Judging from his aura, he has already reached the peak of Qi Refining, and considering his age, he is just under sixty, which means that he has a good chance of Foundation Establishment!
This surprised Lin Xiuyuan somewhat, even though he had also improved greatly over such a long period of time.
But the situation was different. He possessed the wonder of the Purple Talisman, which allowed him to create talismans and exchange them for a large amount of resources. He was no less than the geniuses of ordinary sects and families, and even surpassed them by a few points, which is why he barely reached this level.
Even so, he could only stop at the twelfth level of Qi Refining, but the other party... even if a demonic cultivator progresses rapidly, it wouldn't be this exaggerated!
Could it be that Liu Rong has a long-lost ancestor?
Or did he obtain some great opportunity...?
