Chapter 339: Chapter 339: Target, Minglong Mountain Range

Outside the Long Night Imperial City, Sikong Jing rode the Black Refining Dark Hook Dragon, speeding through the skies endlessly.

His body radiated golden light continuously, and from time to time he used the Golden Soul Palace to accelerate, breaking away from the pursuit of the Xingluo Palace students behind him.

He absolutely could not let them catch him, for there’d not be the slightest chance to survive.

"Damn it."

"Senior Brother Bai, this Spirit Martial Root kid actually didn’t head to the Long Night Saint Dragon Palace, nor did he flee towards the Long Night Black Burning Army."

Trailing Sikong Jing, the chief student of Shaking Light Star Academy, Weng Yuhuan, said through gritted teeth.

Based on their prior judgment, there could only be two directions for Sikong Jing to escape to: the Long Night Saint Dragon Palace or the Long Night Black Burning Army.

Only these two places could save his life.

Therefore, Bai Liuhun had long stationed people at the necessary routes to these locations to intercept.

But Sikong Jing seemed to have foreseen their ambush, not heading in those directions but randomly choosing a different one.

Upon hearing this, a cold light flashed in Bai Liuhun’s eyes.

"This Spirit Martial Root kid is not simple."

"He has anticipated our ambush in advance, but it’s useless, as long as his Light Crystals are exhausted, he won’t be able to escape from the palm of our hands."

The reason Sikong Jing could keep fleeing was precisely because he possessed an Innate Treasure that could accelerate.

But in Bai Liuhun’s eyes, the number of Light Crystals in Sikong Jing’s hands couldn’t possibly be many.

His background had already been thoroughly investigated by the Xingluo Palace; he had come from the Canglong Small Domain, and was there for roughly a month. Even if Qin Heng valued him, how many Light Crystals could he have in his possession?

After all, Qin Heng was now within the Northern Mountain of the Long Night Empire, and it was impossible for him to have given Sikong Jing many Light Crystals before that.

In contrast, Bai Liuhun and the others could have as many Light Crystals as they wanted.

Thinking of this, Bai Liuhun coldly shouted, "Keep chasing, until his Light Crystals are exhausted."

All of the Inner Palace Students from Xingluo Palace also possessed Innate Treasures for acceleration.

So they dangled behind Sikong Jing, ready at any moment to surround and attack him, to skin him and draw out his tendons...

However, they did not know that Sikong Jing had just acquired hundreds of Light Core Crystals from Su Yuexi.

One Ming King Crystal was equivalent to the energy of a thousand Light Crystals.

One Light Core Crystal was almost equal to the energy of a thousand Ming King Crystals, meaning that one Light Core Crystal was equivalent to the energy of a million Light Crystals!

When the energy of the Light Core Crystal was infused into the Golden Soul Palace, it could be used for a substantially long period.

Therefore, when three days later Bai Liuhun and his group saw Sikong Jing still accelerating, their faces turned utterly dark.

Dammit, why hadn’t his Light Crystals run out?

In contrast, the Chasers, one by one, were nearly out of Light Crystals themselves, damn.

"Senior Brother Bai, I’ve run out of Ming King Crystals and Light Crystals," said a Xingluo Palace student with a darkened face.

Following that, a second Xingluo Palace student said, "I’m almost out as well."

With his lips twitching repeatedly, Bai Liuhun took a deep breath and said, "All of you hand over your Light Crystals and Ming King Crystals to me and Junior Sister Weng, we two will continue the chase after that Spirit Martial Root kid."

"Then you find a city to get Ming King Crystals and catch up at full speed."

Clearly, Bai Liuhun and Weng Yuhuan were also nearly out of Light Crystals, so they could only resort to having the other Inner Palace students pitch in.

Following Bai Liuhun’s instructions, the group of Xingluo Palace students took action, and the two chiefs, Bai Liuhun and Weng Yuhuan, continued the pursuit. The rest went to get Ming King Crystals as quickly as they could and then sped up to the fullest.

No matter what, they could only succeed this time, and not fail.

Sikong Jing, with a gleam in his eyes, spoke in a low voice, "Yue Xi is indeed my lucky star, without her hundreds of Light Core Crystals, I would have probably been doomed this time."

Within the Long Night Empire, Sikong Jing could only rely on the Long Night Saint Dragon Palace and the Black Burning Army.

But he had already deduced the moment he fled from Wanbao Pavilion’s vicinity that the operation of Xingluo Palace was absolutely thunderous, and they wouldn’t give him any chance to catch his breath.

Therefore, those two places were definitely off-limits.

He could only escape outside the Long Night Imperial City, without a moment’s laxity.

And along the way, no one would help him, as no forces would offend the Long Night Star Palace for his sake, especially since Sikong Jing didn’t know any other powerhouses in the Long Night Empire.

So the hundreds of Light Core Crystals given to him by Su Yuexi had become the key to Sikong Jing’s escape.

In just three days, he had already burned through thirty Light Core Crystals.

This was still under the circumstances where he wasn’t accelerating at full speed every second; whenever the chasers slowed down a bit, Sikong Jing would also carefully do the same, in order to assess the terrain and whether there were ambushers ahead.

He had avoided ambushers several times, most of whom were family members of students from Xingluo Palace.

Although they didn’t dare to offend the Long Night Saint Dragon Palace openly, they would definitely try their best to assist someone from their family.

At the same time, Sikong Jing did not understand the map of the Long Night Empire at all, so he could only veer away from cities as much as possible to avoid encirclement.

Moreover, accelerating at full power was too fast, which might lead to unforeseen dangers.

"About ten a day, a few hundred should last me over a month," he mused.

"But this can’t go on, the Light Core Crystals will eventually run out, but the students of Xingluo Palace won’t, as they have a multitude of people and can constantly resupply along the way."

"I must find a place where they can’t replenish Light Crystals."

Sikong Jing calmly assessed, but still, he was too unfamiliar with the layout of the Long Night Empire, not knowing where there were no cities or settlements, where the mountains were large enough...

And he didn’t know where the dangerous grounds were that should not be tread upon.

"It seems, I can only head to the Minglong Mountain Range, a place I am somewhat familiar with," Sikong Jing decided, with a gleam in his eyes.

Only a super mountain range like the Minglong Mountain Range could ensure the other side couldn’t replenish Light Crystals.

Because even if you run for ten days and nights, it is still all mountains and forests.

Keep in mind, it took the Divine Spaceship a full half month to travel from the Canglong Domain to the Long Night Empire, but it only took six days to reach the Long Night Imperial City from the Minglong Mountain Range.

Moreover, there were many demon beasts in the Minglong Mountain Range, and there, Sikong Jing also had the possibility of counterattacking.

Thinking this, Sikong Jing continued to accelerate using the Light Core Crystals to power the Golden Soul Palace, but he did not go straight to the Minglong Mountain Range, circling and meandering instead...

He couldn’t let the enemy know his target or he might be ambushed before entering the Minglong Mountain Range.

In this manner, Sikong Jing proceeded systematically, inching towards the direction of the Minglong Mountain Range.

Meanwhile, he sat cross-legged on the back of the Black Refining Dark Hook Dragon, taking out an inner core and swallowing it.

"The Beast Skill of the Scythe Cloud Dragon is complete, next is the Thunder Control Mad Dragon," Sikong Jing murmured to himself.

During his escape, he wasn’t idle; instead, he swallowed the inner cores he had auctioned to enhance his strength and create Beast Skills.

In three days, he had already completed the Scythe Cloud Dragon and Steel Golden Dragon types, and next was the third Demon Dragon Core.

Two days later... Boom!

Sikong Jing’s entire body convulsed fiercely as the inner core of the Thunder Control Mad Dragon was digested, and its Beast Skill formed!

And because of the construction of new demonic power meridians and the absorption of three Demon Dragon Cores, his realm officially elevated from the Martial Body Realm to the Innate Fourth Realm - the Martial Soul Realm, making his True Qi much more formidable.
