282: Chapter 281: Spirit Merging Realm, Pursuit!

Lin Xuan summoned the Snow White Monkey, had it serve as his guardian, and then he drank a cup of Spiritual Wine, quickly circulating the Longevity Technique.

Fortunately for him, his body was robust, further transformed by the essence of Profound Ice and Earth Spirit Liquid, surpassing the average Melt Spirit Realm Martial Artist; otherwise, that trace of palm wind could have taken his life.

After a long time, Lin Xuan suddenly opened his eyes.

The Snow White Monkey beside him chattered incessantly, its little claws constantly pointing to the sky.

“Someone’s pursuing us!” Lord of Wine said in a low voice, clearly burdened heavily by his previous action.

Lin Xuan stood up, grabbed the Snow White Monkey, and quickly dashed towards the distance.

From behind, the sharp sound of slicing the air approached, like an awl piercing through fabric.

Whoosh!

An elder arrived, treading on air, his hand slightly clenched, pulling trees and soil from below and sending them flying rapidly into the sky.

“There are lingering traces of presence; it seems that the lad just left not long ago,” the elder muttered to himself, taking a step and swiftly flying away.

It wasn’t long before he sensed the presence of Lin Xuan ahead.

Boom!

His palm slammed down forcefully, and the surrounding Spiritual Energy quickly gathered to form a hundred-meter-long massive light palm, crashing towards the ground below.

Instantly, trees snapped, rocks flew backwards, the ground cracked open, and a terrifying pit emerged.

A figure shot out, scrambling and as fast as lightning.

That figure was Lin Xuan, who was running rapidly below, his robust Soul Power allowing him to sense the danger ahead of time, barely avoiding the strike.

“What a terrifying attack, to think it’s a Melt Spirit Realm Martial Artist!” Lin Xuan’s face was dark as the bottom of a pot.

“Hehe, little boy, you’ve offended the Mu Family; do you still think you can run?” an ancient voice spread through the sky.

“They really think highly of me, sending out a Soul Fusion Realm Martial Artist!”

For a Spirit Sea Realm Martial Artist facing a Soul Fusion Realm Martial Artist, the comparison was like an ant to an elephant, utterly incomparable.

Unless one possessed contrarian items like the essence of Profound Ice to trap a Soul Fusion Realm Martial Artist, there was no other way.

But Lin Xuan had only half a thread of the essence of Profound Ice left, far too little to trap such a powerful opponent.

“Little boy, come back with me obediently, and perhaps you’ll have a chance to live,” said a cold voice from Mu Xing in the sky.

Naturally, Lin Xuan didn’t believe such nonsense; having killed a disciple of the Mu family, they wouldn’t let him go so easily.

His only option now was to rely on the black cloak.

This black cloak was a Half Spirit-grade Treasure, currently possessing the effect of Blood Sacrifice for speed.

Maybe he could use it to escape.

“I need to stabilize him first!” Lin Xuan decided, secretly activating a Secret Technique, but outwardly displaying a look of helplessness.

“Elder, I agree to go with you, but you must ensure my safety.”

Seeing Lin Xuan willingly surrender, Mu Xing also relaxed a bit; he learned from the Ancestor that Lin Xuan had a secret technique for escape and was worried he might vanish without a trace.

Now it seemed that the escape technique wasn’t so easy to use.

Mu Xing slowly descended, stopping in the air a dozen meters above the ground, his fingers curved to pick up Lin Xuan.

At that moment, Lin Xuan on the ground suddenly erupted.

With forty percent of the Great Dragon Sword Intent surging, Lin Xuan slashed out with his sword, the Sword Light like a dazzling rainbow.

“Hmph!

Stubborn!” Mu Xing’s face slightly darkened, his palm sweeping through, rousing and trembling the surrounding Spiritual Energy, forming a thick light screen in front of him.

The solidified Sword Qi struck it, causing the air to vibrate with a roar, but not inflicting any substantial damage.

“For me, you’re nothing but an ant.

Do you truly think an ant can bite a giant dragon?” Mu Xing’s expression was ice-cold.

“Now that you dare to resist, I’ll have to sever your limbs first.”

Having said that, he extended two fingers and flicked them lightly.

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth surged, rapidly forming a hundred-meter-long Sword Qi, slashing toward Lin Xuan.

This was the power of a Soul Fusion Realm Expert, each move able to harness nature’s spiritual energy, making their attacks incredibly forceful.

Lin Xuan once again sensed the might of the Melt Spirit Realm Martial Artists and felt a trace of relief, grateful that he had the Profound Ice aura last time when facing the Great Elder of the Cang Family; otherwise, he would have died several times over.

As the hundred-meter Sword Qi was about to land on his head, Lin Xuan gritted his teeth and shouted lowly, “Blood Sacrifice Cloak!”

The dark red patterns on the black cloak began to glow, and Lin Xuan felt his blood rapidly draining from his body, while the red glow on the cloak grew more and more intense.

All of this happened in an instant, and when the hundred-meter Sword Qi fell, Lin Xuan’s body turned into a blood-red light, rushing swiftly toward the distance.

Whoosh!

A piercing sound of tearing air rose, and the atmosphere seemed to split apart, creating crack-like vibrations.

This speed made Mu Xing, who was in the sky, stunned; he stared in bewilderment at the sound of Lin Xuan escaping into the distance.

“This brat, he actually has such speed!” Mu Xing’s eyes were filled with a sinister glint.

This speed had already surpassed his own, and among those in the Soul Fusion Realm, it was considered high grade.

“Is that cloak strange?

Could it be a Spiritual Grade Treasure?”

Only a Spiritual Grade Treasure could enable a Spirit Sea Realm Martial Artist to exert a power comparable to a Soul Fusion Realm Expert.

Thinking of this, Mu Xing cracked a smile.

If he could obtain a Spiritual Grade Treasure, his strength would increase greatly.

“Spirit Sea Realm Martial Artists must pay a significant price to stimulate a Spiritual Grade Treasure.

I just need to pursue slowly, and I can exhaust you to death!” Mu Xing took out a disc and sensed Lin Xuan’s presence.

Moments later, he revealed a cold smile.

With a step forward, Mu Xing shot forth like a shooting star.

…

Ten thousand meters away, Lin Xuan appeared, his complexion pale and his steps somewhat unsteady.

Employing the Blood Sacrifice Secret Technique had allowed him to escape danger, but he had also lost one-fifth of his Essence Blood.

All of it was his Life Energy, losing so much all at once was more than even his robust physique could handle.

“Damn the Mu family, I’ll remember this vendetta!” Lin Xuan drank a cup of Spiritual Wine, grinding his teeth as he spoke.

Suddenly, his brow furrowed, and he looked up at the sky.

Behind him, clouds were churning, and a figure was rapidly approaching.

“Damn it!

How did he know?” Lin Xuan’s face turned exceedingly ugly.

He had changed direction, so he shouldn’t have been found so easily.

“There’s a marking on me!” He recalled how, at the Floating Island, the disciples of the Mu family could easily find him.

“What could it be?

The Demon Beast Bag, or something else?” Lin Xuan sought help from the Lord of Wine.

“It’s a special marking, likely implanted by that Spirit Transformation Realm old fiend,” the Lord of Wine said gravely.

“I can remove it, but it will take some time.”

“I can hold on!” Lin Xuan said through clenched teeth.

He performed the Reverse Dragon Step, quickly running towards the distance.

Despite the Reverse Dragon Step’s speed, it was trivial compared to a Soul Fusion Realm Martial Artist.

There was no helping it; the gap in their Cultivation was too vast, like a child with a sharp weapon still might not be able to harm an adult.

“I’ll have to use the Blood Sacrifice again!” Lin Xuan did not want to be captured, and his cloak behind him once more lit up with a red glow.
