Chapter 583: Chapter 583: The Great Escape

Boom!

Shi Hao crashed to the ground, all the lotuses on his body having completely shattered, and he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, feeling as if he had been hollowed out.

In contrast, Chang Yichun, despite being bombarded by so many of Shi Hao’s powerful moves, had only suffered a split in his palm, without any significant impact.

Damn, the Supplementing Divine Temple is too strong.

Without the slightest hesitation, Shi Hao immediately entered the Immortal Abode.

Just now, having unleashed his full strength in a single strike, he had no energy left to poison his opponent.

Hm?

Chang Yichun took a leaping step forward, but Shi Hao’s trace was nowhere to be found, causing him to frown.

Where is he?

How could a grown man just disappear into thin air?

Instant Teleportation Talisman?

No, that’s not right, an Instant Teleportation Talisman could at most make a person flash away three to four zhang from their original position, ten zhang at most, but the area was quite empty, so where could Shi Hao’s figure be?

If the Instant Teleportation Talisman is ruled out, then there really isn’t any other possibility!

Could it be, he has shrunk into a speck of dust?

That’s even more ridiculous.

But, where is he?

Chang Yichun frowned, but as a genius like him, he immediately determined that Shi Hao had not left, but had hidden himself in a way unknown to him, possibly to the left.

He quietly backed off, hiding behind a crystal pillar.

Waiting for the hare to hit the tree, he would definitely be able to pull the other out and kill him.

—This kid is truly too monstrous, he’s just at the Self-Observation level, yet he actually managed to injure him.

No one would believe this if it were told.

In a head-on strike, a mere Self-Observation cultivator actually managed to injure the Supplementing Divine Temple!

Therefore, he must be killed, no more time and space could be allowed for this kid to grow.

Inside the Immortal Abode, Shi Hao lay down steadily.

The result of this hit was truly unexpected for him, the Supplementing Divine Temple was so hard to kill!

At the same time, he had already used all the powerful moves he could, and although he still had terrifying moves like Fire Scorches the Heavens, having already used the Sky-Flipping Seal, he naturally couldn’t have any energy left to operate other techniques.

—The Dharma appearance is an independent existence, and the Nine Lotus Sky-Sealing Technique is also composed of Rune Pieces from the Soul Sea, which have been charging all the time, ready to use at any moment.

Being so well-prepared, but he had only managed to injure Chang Yichun’s palm—this battle achievement was not satisfying for him.

Moreover, with Chang Yichun being so strong, there was absolutely no chance to poison him.

Could he really be chased and killed by his opponent like this all the time?

After recovering his strength, Shi Hao left the Immortal Abode.

Boom!

Overwhelming power rippled, and Shi Hao found that the crystal stones on the ground were melting, as if turning into a liquid.

Controlling matter!

Chang Yichun emerged, killing intent accompanied by a cold smile on his lips.

The Founding King Court was able to control matter, and being from the Supplementing Divine Temple, he was of course even more adept at it.

The moment Shi Hao touched the ground, he would fall into the pool formed by the melting crystal stones, which would then instantly solidify, trapping him.

—Even if Shi Hao had an Instant Teleportation Talisman, he wouldn’t be able to escape under such circumstances.

So, you’re as good as dead!

Shi Hao sighed inwardly but immediately entered the Immortal Abode once more.

Huh, he’s gone again?

Chang Yichun couldn’t believe it, and he was completely certain that Shi Hao had not used an Instant Teleportation Talisman.

So, does this child possess an extraordinarily special ability that allows him to isolate himself from the real space?

Hisss, is this a technique, or the ability of some treasure, or is it a divine skill brought about by his physique?

If it’s the ability of a treasure... Chang Yichun’s heart suddenly raced. If he acquired it, he would be able to descend into the most dangerous of ancient relics, and he could hide in a different space whenever he encountered danger.

Shi Hao, you can’t escape!

He quietly retreated again, for here, there were crystal pillars everywhere, where he could easily hide.

Whoosh, in just a short moment, Shi Hao dashed out, his speed astonishingly fast.

He was running the Cloud Piercing Step to its limits.

Unfortunately for him, Chang Yichun was not only from the Supplementing Divine Temple but had also mastered an extremely high-level movement technique. His speed far surpassed Shi Hao’s, and it took just a few leaps for him to catch up to Shi Hao, reaching out with a large hand that seemed to cover the sky.

Shi Hao couldn’t help but sigh inwardly. This great hand was formed from Elemental Power; otherwise, he might have counterattacked with a Deep Sea Sting.

His opponent was very cautious.

Having no choice, Shi Hao entered the Immortal Abode once more.

"Shi Hao, that treasure of yours is really something," Chang Yichun laughed heartily. "Unfortunately, it can only let you hide in a different space—it doesn’t allow you to move. So, I just need to wait nearby. If one ambush doesn’t work, then I’ll try a second time, and if that doesn’t work, a third. I refuse to believe you can always be so lucky!"

This was a case of there only being a thief for a thousand days, not a thousand days against a thief.

Hence, an extended guard was bound to fail.

No matter how many times Shi Hao escaped, as long as Chang Yichun succeeded once, Shi Hao would be a dead man.

After a while, Shi Hao ran again.

Naturally, Chang Yichun pursued, but whenever he was about to succeed, Shi Hao would enter the Immortal Abode, dodging his deadly strike.

Once, twice, three times... a cat-and-mouse chase, time slowly passed, and many days flashed by in an instant.

Shi Hao remained absolutely vigilant, always able to dodge the attack at the critical moment.

This game of chase and evasion slowly chipped away at the patience of both Shi Hao and Chang Yichun.

Whoosh, Shi Hao once more exited the Immortal Abode, sprinting away.

Huh?

This time, however, he was surprised to find that Chang Yichun didn’t pursue him.

Given up?

Impossible.

Shi Hao thought to himself, considering the treasure he was believed to possess and his grudge with the Heaven’s Path Alliance, how could the man possibly give up?

This must be a ploy to make him let his guard down and then launch a surprise attack to kill him instantly.

After so many days, it was indeed time for the other side to change their tactics.

You see, an enemy that appears in the open isn’t frightening because you’re prepared, but an enemy hiding in the shadows is unpredictable since you never know when they might suddenly emerge.

Being constantly on edge like this is a tremendous mental strain.

While running, an Elemental Creatures gathering place appeared ahead.

At that moment, Chang Yichun suddenly made his move, a palm strike cleaving out, terrifyin and inexplicable.

He had captured the perfect moment to act.

However, Shi Hao’s reaction was just too fast.

Whoosh, he immediately entered the Immortal Abode.

Bang, Chang Yichun’s strike hit nothing but thin air, impacting the ground and creating a loud echo.

Chang Yichun gritted his teeth in frustration. He had followed so cautiously and for so long. Shi Hao, if he had been on constant alert up to now, should be extremely exhausted, and his reaction should have been slower.

If Shi Hao had been relaxed, then he would not have been able to dodge the blow.

Yet, Shi Hao still managed to react in time.

Damn it, why is it so hard to kill a mere Self-Observation?

—Of course, he would not know that Shi Hao had advanced his domain prematurely; within a ten-zhang radius, how could anything escape his notice?

Chang Yichun stamped his feet in anger, but the very next moment, he couldn’t help but shudder.
