Chapter 619: Pursuit and Escape

The boss of Ping’s Three Evil originally planned to take advantage of a surprise attack to shoot Li Yuanba, seizing the opportunity to first avenge the deaths of his two brothers.

He knew very well that with Tang Xue Ning’s strength, he need not consider revenge any further.

Additionally, killing Li Yuanba would also distract Tang Xue Ning, allowing him to escape safely even without the help of a talisman for protection and escape skills.

But he absolutely did not expect that his attack, launched with a Nascent Soul Middle Stage cultivation, failed to shoot the early-stage Nascent Soul Li Yuanba.

”Li Yuanba, be careful, don’t be reckless!” Tang Xue Ning reminded Li Yuanba while chasing.

Li Yuanba was startled. If the arrow shot by the boss of Ping’s Three Evil hadn’t been metal-attributed, he would have had a hard time defending against it.

He summarized his mistakes while observing the situation.

Though the boss of Ping’s Three Evil no longer had a talisman for escape techniques, his speed was still not slow, at least not much different from Tang Xue Ning’s.

He uses a bow and arrow, needing to maintain distance from his enemies, so he pays special attention to secret flying techniques.

Tang Xue Ning was chasing the boss of Ping’s Three Evil, and in the chase, they had flown several dozen miles.

Li Yuanba no longer hesitated. He once again employed ’Within Reach, Worlds Apart’, but this time he did not directly pursue the boss of Ping’s Three Evil, instead choosing to take a detour to intercept him head-on.

This showcased the terrifying aspect of the Divine Foot Skill, under the effect of ’Within Reach, Worlds Apart’, his speed far exceeded that of the boss of Ping’s Three Evil and Tang Xue Ning.

His figure appeared and disappeared in the void, and by the time the boss of Ping’s Three Evil and Tang Xue Ning had chased four hundred miles, he was already at the front of their path.

”’Ten Thousand Swords Emerge’!” Li Yuanba took out ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak’ and murmured.

A multitude of energy-converted flying swords flew out from ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak’. This time, he relaxed his mind, allowing the distant Li Shiming to take over his body.

Li Shiming mobilized one hundred and eight brains, each controlling a Fourth Grade Energy Flying Sword, among which were five top-level energy-converted flying swords containing Great Cultivator ’Phantom-breaking Sword Intent’.

One hundred and eight Fourth Grade Energy Flying Swords, each carrying nearly a hundred flying swords behind it, covered the entire airspace and formed a formation.

The one hundred and eight Fourth Grade Energy Flying Swords served as the base, coordinating with the other energy-converted flying swords.

Although Li Shiming could only simultaneously control one hundred and eight Fourth Grade Energy Flying Swords over tens of millions of miles, the other energy-converted flying swords naturally became part of the formation’s base.

This formation was researched by Li Shiming, named ’Heavenly Gang and Earthly Sha Immortal Sword Formation’, entirely based on the energy-converted flying swords within ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak’.

Initially, he researched the ’Heavenly Gang Immortal Slaying Sword Formation’ when there were less than forty Fourth Grade Energy Flying Swords in ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak’.

This ’Heavenly Gang Immortal Slaying Sword Formation’ required thirty-six Fourth Grade Energy Flying Swords to form the base.

After the number of Fourth Grade Energy Flying Swords in ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak’ exceeded seventy, he evolved the ’Heavenly Gang Immortal Slaying Sword Formation’ into the ’Earth Evil Immortal Sword Formation’, increasing the required Fourth Grade Energy Flying Swords to seventy-two.

Finally, when the number of Fourth Grade Energy Flying Swords in ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak’ exceeded one hundred, he finalized the ’Heavenly Gang and Earthly Sha Immortal Sword Formation’.

Once the ’Heavenly Gang and Earthly Sha Immortal Sword Formation’ was set up, it automatically hid itself, concealing not only the aura of the one hundred and eight Fourth Grade Energy Flying Swords but also that of the other nearly ten thousand energy-converted flying swords.

After Li Shiming set up the ’Heavenly Gang and Earthly Sha Immortal Sword Formation’, he returned control of the body back to his clone Li Yuanba.

Li Yuanba no longer cared about the ’Heavenly Gang and Earthly Sha Immortal Sword Formation’. Once the formation was complete, it could operate autonomously until he dispelled it.

He used ’Within Reach, Worlds Apart’ to leave the area in the distance. Even with the ’Heavenly Gang and Earthly Sha Immortal Sword Formation’ present, he dared not get too close to the boss of Ping’s Three Evil.

The boss of Ping’s Three Evil is practically a nemesis for Cultivators like him, who have extremely strong offensive power but very weak defensive power.

Although he possesses the ’Invisible Primordial Magnetism’ Divine Skill, which can slow down the speed of arrows, he would be in danger if the boss of Ping’s Three Evil used a long-range attack method not attributed to metal.

He did not want to take risks anymore, and what he needed to do was to hold off the boss of Ping’s Three Evil for a moment, leaving the subsequent battle to Tang Xue Ning.

The boss of Ping’s Three Evil was fleeing while observing Tang Xue Ning behind him. He recognized Tang Xue Ning’s identity as a Sword Cultivator from Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion.

Ping’s Three Evil had committed too many evil deeds, and he had no idea how he had offended Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion.

At this moment, all he wanted was to escape and hide for at least a hundred years until Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion lost interest in him.

This Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion was a force he could not face. Not to mention if the other side dispatched a Great Cultivator Sword Cultivator, even a Sword Cultivator of the same level was not someone he could contend with.

Look at previously; although Sword Cultivators from Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion ambushed Ping’s Three Evil, relying on attacks from just one Nascent Soul Middle Stage Sword Cultivator and one Nascent Soul Early Stage Sword Cultivator, they killed two of Ping’s Three Evil.

At this point, the boss of Ping’s Three Evil had no intention of revenge at all; he even regretted why he had tried to kill Li Yuanba earlier.

Li Yuanba had not been killed by him, but instead, he lost the best opportunity to escape.
