Chapter 315: Chapter 0248: Escaping also Requires Strength_2 Chapter 315: Chapter 0248: Escaping also Requires Strength_2 The two Chi Di cultivators pursuing Qi Tian were furious. They hadn’t expected Qi Tian to be so audacious and reckless. Even while being surrounded and blocked by two Foundation Establishment stage cultivators, Qi Tian dared to kill in front of them which they could absolutely not tolerate.

The two of them, one on the left and one on the right, encircled Qi Tian, vowing to kill him on the spot to quell the anger in their hearts.

At this moment, Qi Tian slapped his Storage Bag again and a wooden barrel appeared in his hand. The two Chi Di cultivators were furious, and rebuked sternly, “If you dare to throw another barrel of oil, we will make sure you’re alive but wishing for death, and dead but unable to die.”

The Chi Di cultivator who spoke those words used the somewhat stiff language of Great Zhao. At the same time, he also sped up, trying to prevent Qi Tian from acting before him.

Qi Tian gave a sneer, casually tossing the barrel from his hand. He waved an object in his hand towards the two pursuing Chi Di cultivators. It was something he had secretly taken out when he got the barrel just now. He had been waiting for this moment.

The two Chi Di cultivators were terrified when they clearly saw what was in Qi Tian’s palm. It was the Explosive Thunder Talisman, a talisman that could threaten them. What made them even more furious was that Qi Tian had not taken out just one Explosive Thunder Talisman, but two. At such a short distance, if Qi Tian were to throw the Explosive Thunder Talismans, the consequences would be unthinkable.

The two Chi Di cultivators reacted swiftly, but Qi Tian was even faster. The moment he revealed the Explosive Thunder Talismans, he threw them out. To maximize their destructive power, he didn’t toss the two Explosive Thunder Talismans towards the two Chi Di cultivators separately, but concentrated them on the one nearest to him.

If one Explosive Thunder Talisman’s attack area after explosion could somehow be avoided, then two Explosive Thunder Talismans’ combined attack area would leave no room for escape. The one targeted by Qi Tian was lucky enough to dodge the first two thunder strikes, but wasn’t so fortunate when more thunder strikes rained down. He was struck directly and his figure started to wobble. The runes in the flying sword under his feet were damaged by the thunder, and he himself was a bit dazed.

Qi Tian had been waiting for this opportunity. He quickly activated the Soaring Cloud Talisman and turned on the Speed Multiplier Mode of the Heavenly Dao Engine, charging forward like an arrow. He reached the Chi Di cultivator before the thunder had fully disappeared, and his Red Hoop Stick swept out, blowing the Chi Di cultivator’s head apart.

Gathering his corpse and the flying sword, he temporarily stored them into the Storage Bag, and then pursued the other Chi Di cultivator. The latter was frightened out of his wits. Originally, he was chasing Qi Tian when Qi Tian was in a pitiful state, but in a blink of an eye, Qi Tian started chasing him. This young man from Great Zhao was far too despicable. He clearly had the Explosive Thunder Talisman that could threaten them, and yet he had acted pitiful at first. Plus, once Qi Tian sped up, he was incredibly fast, definitely exceeding 100 kilometers per hour.

Qi Tian didn’t care about how the Chi Di cultivator assessed him. He had racked his brains to formulate his plan. Now that he had initial success, he naturally wanted to replicate it to deal with the second Chi Di cultivator. He started to activate his speed, chasing after the Chi Di cultivator at a speed of 100 kilometers per hour.

Seeing the distance between the two of them getting closer, the Chi Di cultivator’s eyes flashed with ruthlessness. He once again took the umbrella into his hand, pouring True Essence into it, and the runes on the umbrella immediately glowed brighter.

Qi Tian was immediately alert and slightly slowed down his speed. He was somewhat wary of this umbrella that could release icy blasts and blizzards. But that was all it was, caution, fear was out of the question. If he were afraid, he wouldn’t have ventured into the sky above the Chi Di camp in the first place.

Upon seeing that Qi Tian only slightly reduced his speed and did not give up on his pursuit, the Chi Di cultivator knew that he must act, as the hope of scaring off Qi Tian was out of question. Biting his lip, he hurled the brightly glowing umbrella in his hand towards Qi Tian.

The umbrella was already open, tumbling in the air like a blooming flower swaying in the wind.

An alarm bell rang in Qi Tian’s mind, he had a feeling that he absolutely couldn’t let this umbrella approach him. In a moment of desperation, he held out his hand, and the Transporting Whirlwind flew out from his palm, curling towards that umbrella.

In almost an instant, the umbrella was entangled by the Transporting Whirlwind and dragged towards the palm of Qi Tian. When it entered the vortex in Qi Tian’s palm, the umbrella exploded loudly, its power presumably enough to flatten a small hill. But within the vortex, no matter how the umbrella exploded, the vortex remained unmoved. The energy generated by the explosion was completely devoured by the Heavenly Dao Engine.

Qi Tian heaved a sigh of relief, he looked again at the Chi Di cultivator who threw the umbrella, and the latter was staring back at him in horror, resembling a man who had seen a ghost.

“Die.” The Heavenly Dao Engine was Qi Tian’s biggest secret. Their battle in the sky attracted many eyes, but the ones who really knew the actual situation were just him and this Chi Di cultivator. In order to keep the secret, Qi Tian must not let him escape, regardless of anything. Furthermore, even without the secret of the Heavenly Dao Engine to protect, the mere difference in their affiliations decided that Qi Tian couldn’t let the Chi Di cultivator leave easily.

Qi Tian slapped his Storage Bag, and took out four Explosive Thunder Talismans from it. He pushed the speed multiplier mode of the Heavenly Dao Engine to its limit, and the speed provided to him by the Soaring Cloud Talisman immediately rose to more than a hundred forty kilometers per hour. Like a bullet leaving its barrel, Qi Tian lunged towards the Chi Di cultivator.

The Chi Di cultivator turned and ran. Although he was in the late stages of Foundation Establishment, he was already terrified by Qi Tian’s ever-changing tactics. Before he could rebuild his confidence, he did not dare to continue fighting the battle against Qi Tian.

However, escape also required strength. His flying sword’s speed was much slower than the speed of Qi Tian’s Soaring Cloud Talisman catalyzed by the Heavenly Dao Engine. In no time, Qi Tian caught up with him, and the activated Explosive Thunder Talisman was thrown out, covering the Chi Di cultivator in its radius.

As expected, the explosive activation of the Thunder Talisman severely damaged the Chi Di cultivator. Qi Tian pursued at once, wielding his Red Hoop Stick again and smashed the brain of the Chi Di cultivator, and casually swept his body into his Storage Bag.

Having consecutively dealt with these two Chi Di cultivators, Qi Tian looked down and noticed that the Chi Di cultivators on the ground had already scattered. Initially, they were coordinating with their aerial comrades to attack Qi Tian, but now they had fled. None of them possessed the means for air combat and their strength was a notch below the two Chi Di cultivators that Qi Tian had just killed. Now that Qi Tian had killed the two most formidable Chi Di cultivators, the remaining ones were naturally fearful. They didn’t want to become ghosts under Qi Tian’s stick.

Qi Tian glanced at the scattering Chi Di cultivators and didn’t chase them. These Chi Di cultivators were not without value, but their value was not large enough. If Qi Tian were to act, he would strive to maximize his own benefits.
