Volume Three The Battle of the Sea Clan Chapter 352: Escape Plan
In fact, Liu Ming was slightly shuddered when he heard Jialan say in such an understatement that he could help him deal with the scholar behind him.
After all, the person behind him is also a mid-level Condensate Realm monk at the same level as him. Even though his strength is even higher than that of an ordinary late-Condensate Realm monk, it will take a lot of effort to deal with this tail quietly.
If you take action rashly and fail to successfully kill it with thunderous means, it may be self-defeating and cause unnecessary trouble.
As for Jialan, I haven't seen him for several years. Although his cultivation has reached the early stage of the liquid condensation realm, he is obviously one level lower than his opponent.
But she was pregnant with the body of a nightmare, and when she returned to the clan, she was expected to have practiced a lot of related secret arts. Her strength cannot be simply measured by her realm.
But Liu Ming had long heard from Taoist Aunt Zhong and others that this nightmare body could exert great power in group battles and when dealing with opponents with similar cultivation levels, but when facing the realm of cultivation, it obviously suppressed him.
When faced with an opponent, he was unable to exert much advantage, and besides, the opponent's mental strength was quite strong.
However, with this woman's personality, there must be something to rely on when she says these words. Now that he is willing to solve his troubles, he is happy and relaxed, and it is also a good time to observe this woman's true strength.
Seeing that Liu Ming didn't speak, Jialan took it as his acquiescence to the matter, chuckled lightly, waved his hand and removed the partition barrier, and the two figures reappeared in the grove.
I saw Jialan's slender jade-onion-like fingers quickly pinching the magic formula, and at the same time, dazzling rays of light shot out from the body in a fleeting way.
Immediately afterwards, Liu Ming felt his eyes blur. Jialan's slender figure had blurred in his sight, and when it reappeared the next moment, it was already more than ten feet away.
"You must have heard enough, now it's time to show up." As Jialan's crisp voice fell, a slender hand rushed into the space in front of her and gently tapped it.
Its movements look so light and its posture is so graceful, just like a butterfly flying in the flowers.
But when the thin finger crossed the void, it immediately set off layers of ripples that spread to the surroundings in a flash.
A "buzz" sound!
Under an ancient tree about ten feet high in front of Jialan, the space suddenly fluctuated violently, and then a figure emerged. With a flash of yellow light, it fled into the distance.
A cold light flashed in Liu Ming's eyes, and he could see clearly that the person wrapped in the yellow light was the scholar who had been following him earlier.
The moment the Jialan Jade hand came out, the scholar felt the space around him tighten, and his every move became stagnant, so the first thought in his mind was to escape.
But what surprised him was that the ripples in the void nearby seemed to separate it from the outside world, and followed closely behind it like a shadow.
He was not one to show weakness. When he realized that something was wrong, he immediately made a seal with one hand, took out a jade pen with the other hand, and waved it into the void. Suddenly, yellow spirit patterns ejected from the pen like a storm.
As soon as the spirit patterns came into contact with the ripples, they sank into it silently, without any reaction.
The scholar was shocked and immediately stopped escaping. As a result, he was surprised to find that the place where he was at the moment was only one step away from the ancient tree before. It seemed as if he had never left even half a step!
He was shocked and realized that the woman in front of him had extremely weird methods and could not be easily escaped. He immediately said loudly:
"Fellow Taoist, please wait a moment. I don't mean any harm."
Of course, this person didn't really beg for mercy, he just wanted to use a delaying strategy.
But Jialan didn't pay any attention to the man's words, and her jade-like fingers suddenly lay flat on her chest, changing like a wheel.
Then, the void around her body became distorted and blurred, as if it had formed another small space on its own.
What's even more shocking is that at this moment, after Jialan's slender figure blurred, eight paths suddenly appeared.
The auras on the eight figures are exactly the same!
When Liu Ming on the side saw this scene, his pupils suddenly shrank, and despite his extremely strong mental power, it took a while before he finally locked onto Jialan's true body.
This also shows that on the other hand, if it were him who was fighting Jialan at the moment, he would not be completely sure that he would be able to quickly capture the opponent's whereabouts.
There was a "boom"!
The scholar didn't even have the strength to fight back, and was blasted into the air by an invisible force. His protective aura seemed to be useless, and at the same time, blue shadows appeared all around him.
The shapes of these phantoms are also different, some of them are frowning and silent, some are angry expressions, some are charming smiles, but they all stretch out a finger to point towards the scholar, and light blue runes are ejected one by one.
When he came out, he just flashed around the scholar and swarmed up like a tarsal maggot.
A blue light suddenly flashed on the scholar's body, his eyes began to become dull, his hands began to droop, and the jade pen spiritual weapon in his hand also fell to the ground with a "dang" sound.
I saw more and more blue runes gathering on his body, getting brighter and brighter. Suddenly, there was a "bang" sound, and the body exploded while expanding and contracting, turning into bursts of blood mist.
From beginning to end, Jialan's fighting style is extremely weird.
Liu Ming was frightened for a while.
After looking at the phantoms Jialan had transformed into just now, he felt a vague sinking feeling. They were indeed very terrifying.
It seems that even though this woman's cultivation level is one level lower than mine, this nightmare body is so weird that she can easily win against enemies across levels.
It seems that the previous rumors that the Nightmare Body is not good at dealing with high-level people are really not credible.
The eight figures blurred for a while, then merged into one again the next moment, and Jialan's graceful figure appeared in front of Liu Ming again.
She turned around and glanced at Liu Ming with a half-smile, then floated away without looking back. After a few flashes, her figure completely disappeared from Liu Ming's eyes.
Liu Ming narrowed his eyes slightly, picked up the jade pen that the scholar had dropped, and left the woods without stopping at all.
…
In a remote attic built against the mountain in Iron Fire Valley, Liu Ming sat cross-legged quietly, frowning slightly, thinking about something.
After a long while, his eyebrows relaxed, and at the same time he murmured to himself:
"It seems that the person in the Black Flame Palace who is spying on me this time is most likely Yan Jue, who is the guest of the Black Flame Palace. The last time I took out the troll bristles for this soul-suppressing lock, I was reckless.
A little bit."
As he was thinking like this, the memory of Yanjue's shock when he saw the black troll's bristles and the unconcealable passion in his eyes gradually emerged in his mind.
Liu Ming only thought about it for a short while, then his uncertain expression faded, he took a deep breath and said to himself again:
"Although this Yan Jue is not a strong man in the Crystal Transformation Stage, his cultivation has reached the late stage of the Condensed Liquid Stage, and as a master of weapon refining, he will have many followers under his command. Now that he has been targeted by him, he wants to go safely.
I'm afraid it won't be easy to escape from this valley of iron fire."
In the following time, many thoughts flashed through Liu Ming's mind, all of which were strategies on how to escape, but they were all rejected by him without exception.
He suddenly turned over with one hand, and a red token appeared in his hand. It was the Yunchuan token that Ye Tianmei had given him that day.
"This token may have some effect on deterring ordinary forces, but as for Yan Jue, I'm afraid it won't work." Liu Ming stared at the Yunchuan token in his hand, with no smile at all on his face.
Then, he thought about Jialan's words that he could go find her again after he changed his mind, and he shook his head subconsciously.
With his temperament, how could he put his own safety on others?
"It seems that the only way now is to wait for the reinforcements from the sea tribe to arrive, and then take the opportunity to escape when they fight with the Kraken Emperor's men. The Iron Fire Valley will be extremely chaotic at that time, as long as we can get rid of the pursuers at the beginning
, I’m afraid it won’t be easy for Yan Jue to find me again.”
Liu Ming thought with flashing eyes, and his expression finally softened a bit, but some specific details of the action still need to be carefully considered.
The scholar who was spying on him had already been killed by Jialan, and Yan Jue should have already known that he was being watched.
He held the red token in one hand and fell into deep thought again.
…
At the same time, somewhere in an unknown place on Bieyuan Island, a spaceship more than ten feet long, shrouded in a white light curtain, was shooting high in the sky.
The whole body of the flying boat is crystal clear and white. In its exquisitely carved cabin, a woman wearing a white palace dress is playing a guqin with a pale silver light.
Although the sound of the piano is gentle and sweet, if you listen carefully, you will find that there is a hint of impatience mixed in it.
Suddenly, the woman in palace clothes paused her fingers, and the sound of the piano suddenly stopped. Then she raised her head, revealing an extremely delicate and beautiful face.
But it was the Holy Fairy of the Red Scale Clan who had appeared in the sky above the Xuanjing Palace!
Without turning back, I saw the woman in palace clothes slowly getting up, moving her lotus feet lightly to the front of the flying boat, and standing side by side with a thin middle-aged man with sallow eyebrows.
"I wonder what the current situation is over there? According to that girl Jialan, not long after they walked out of the Iron Fire Valley, they were attacked by the blue birds and red carps sent by the Siren Emperor. Li Kun was seriously injured and fell into a coma.
, there is great danger for life, and Mrs. Lan is also asleep." The middle-aged man suddenly spoke, and said with a somewhat worried tone.
"Third Uncle, I'm afraid we need to speed up a little bit more now. Jialan just sent me another message. Their current situation is very critical. It's only a few days away from the one-month period promised by Black Flame Palace.
"If it's too late, once the senior officials of the Black Flame Palace no longer stop the two demons of the Blue Bird, not only will Elder Li be in danger of his life, but the Xishui Shield will also be in danger." Fairy Shengji frowned slightly and said slowly.
