Chapter 718: A Chance of Survival in a Desperate Situation
"Hurry up and leave, we can't resist this ghost thing!"
While Huangfu Song was screaming, he set up several formations outside the Puxian Zhenzhou.
The speed of the flying boat's escape suddenly increased several times.
But the terrifying giant corpse was still chasing after them.
Moreover, its speed does not seem to be much slower than Puxian Zhenzhou!
"Hurry, go back to the nearest Luoyan Province. This kind of monster can only be dealt with by the official Immortal Alliance!"
Without his orders, Li Fan had already maneuvered the flying boat to escape along the fastest escape route.
but……
According to the distance on the map and their flying speed, they should have been out of the area covered by the white fog by now.
But the surroundings are still shrouded in white fog, as if they have remained unchanged for thousands of years.
"We are in trouble. We have been dragged into the maze by this giant corpse without realizing it." Li Fan looked a little ugly.
"What?" Huangfu Song was shocked. After checking, he found that what Li Fan said was true.
"This... I can't win the fight, and I can't escape. Isn't this a dead end?" Dongfang Yao's face turned slightly pale.
"Think of a solution while running away." Li Fan said decisively.
Puxian Zhenzhou kept flying at a high speed, trying to find the exit of the maze, while the corpse giant followed closely behind, looking like he would not give up until he caught Li Fan and the others.
Puxian Zhenzhou was nearly caught by the corpse several times. Fortunately, he always relied on Li Fan and the flying boat control skills he had learned in the Xianjue formation to avoid the crisis.
"Damn it, why have you been following us? Is there some deep hatred?" Unable to bear such provocation, Huangfu Song could not help but say in anger.
"Hmm?" This unintentional remark actually reminded Li Fan.
This terrifying and strange giant corpse is obviously related to Tianyi. It has no subjective consciousness and seems to act entirely on instinct. Why did it pursue Li Fan and the other two relentlessly?
While chasing and killing, he also let out wails of resentment.
"Could it be that he sensed the aura of the Heavenly Doctor on me?" Li Fan thought of this instantly.
However, he quickly denied this speculation.
Not just this life.
Ever since his clone revealed a flaw in front of Tianyi and was chased by him by tearing through the Tianxuan space and was forced to return to the truth, Li Fan has not met Tianyi for a long time.
Not to mention the aura of a heavenly doctor.
Li Fan glanced at Huangfu and Dongfang beside him again.
They couldn't even hear the sound of the "Heavenly Doctor" emitted by the corpse giant. Obviously, it was impossible for them to have any connection with this powerful man.
"So, it was something I was carrying that attracted this corpse giant?"
In a flash, Li Fan vaguely thought of a possibility.
He glanced and counted all the items on his body, discarding some of the suspicious ones without hesitation, but it still did not change the actions of the corpse giant.
Li Fan finally fixed his sights on a white rib.
This is the only item dropped from Master Yin after he was killed in this life.
The first person infected by the immortal and mortal miasma.
"Could it be because of this thing?"
Li Fan pondered for a moment and held it in his hand.
Feeling its strange touch of cold yet warm, Li Fan threw it hard in the opposite direction of the flying boat.
A moment later.
"sky……"
"medical……"
The giant corpse really changed the target of his pursuit!
He abandoned Samantabhadra's true boat and roared after the white rib!
“…”
"What does this mean?" Li Fan was a little stunned, frowned slightly, and thought carefully.
And then, something even more incomprehensible happened to him.
When the corpse giant got the rib, Li Fan originally thought that it would take crazy revenge.
But its movements slowed down slightly, and then it stood there in a daze.
The wailing of the "Heavenly Doctor" that had been heard one after another slowly subsided.
The corpse giant held the rib in his hands awkwardly, protecting it against his heart.
Then it sank and disappeared in the vast white fog.
The change happened in just a moment, and except for Li Fan, the other two people on the boat were unable to understand what had happened.
They only saw Li Fan throwing out something casually, and then leading the terrifying giant away.
They who survived the disaster looked at Li Fan in a daze.
It took Li Fan a long time to come back to his senses. He shrugged and said, "It's just luck."
Huangfu and Dongfang did not comment. However, Li Fan had saved their lives after all, and since the other party was unwilling to reveal more, they did not ask further questions.
During this period of time, they have truly developed a life-and-death friendship.
Although the friendship cannot be said to be very deep, it is definitely much deeper than the bond between most cultivators in the world.
At least, that's what Huangfu and Dongfang thought.
Everyone has their own secrets, and they all chose to avoid talking about it.
Without the threat of the giant, the three of them took some effort and finally escaped from this maze.
However, for some reason, this maze does not have any Qingxuan points as rewards.
Saving my life is a great blessing. I can't ask for more.
After some discussion, the three frightened people decided to go back and rest for a while.
However, the shock of seeing two dissociation discs disappear from the Sky Mirror at that moment made them change their minds.
Without caring that he had just escaped death, he plunged into the white fog again.
——
"So, people die for money, and birds die for food. This is the law of heaven and earth, and even immortal cultivators like us are no exception. Unless another immortal celestial master can reverse this law, otherwise, things like this will continue to happen in our Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance in the future."
Nangong Shirong talked freely in front of Xu Bai, but he was not talking about Huangfu Song and the other two.
But it was Tianliang City Lord Xiang Rongxin.
After dozens of days of careful investigation and mediation between various forces, the person who was most responsible for the Wang Qiupo incident was finally identified.
It was this City Lord Xiang.
There was no other way, because most of the cultivators recommended by Wang Qiupo followed his path. Moreover, he confessed to having received many treasures from Wang Qiupo.
In the end, he was dismissed from his position as city lord. Fortunately, he saved his life and even his cultivation level.
He was simply exiled to Cangwu Abyss in the extreme southwest to suppress the monsters at the bottom of the abyss that were rioting more and more frequently.
Nangong Shirong, who made great contributions in this case, naturally inherited Xiang Rongxin's position.
The internal resolution has been reached, and the decree will be officially issued in a few days.
Nangong Shirong, who was in high spirits, naturally did not forget Xu Bai, his "great contributor".
He even extended an olive branch to Xu Bai, wanting to invite him to take up a position in Tianliang Prefecture.
After all, although he became successful very quickly this time, he did offend a large number of people.
With a weak foundation, it is indeed urgent to build up one's own power.
