Chapter 34: The Chase
Qi Qi was still lying on the ground, guarding the Star Soul Fruit under his neck, making people feel like they were holding it in the palm of their hands and afraid of melting.
Luo Fanchen frowned, and walked around Qi Qi's body, observing the surrounding situation, thinking about how to snatch the Star Soul Fruit from Qi Qi's hands.
Turn something over in one's mind.
If Qi Qi waited until the Star Soul Fruit was ripe and directly ate the Star Soul Fruit in one bite, then Luo Fanchen would have no chance at all.
The strength is not as good as Qiqi.
It can only be taken by skill.
How to get rid of the poor Qi?
......
Luo Fanchen slowly shifted his position and came to the opposite side of Qi Qi's head, only to see that Qi Qi's eyes were closed, his breathing was steady, and he still hadn't woken up from his sleep.
Luo Fanchen just stopped in place, observing the changes in the Star Soul Fruit......
An hour.
Two hours.
......
Night falls.
Luo Fanchen and Qi Qi didn't move their bodies, and the starlight emitted by the Star Soul Fruit under the night seemed even brighter.
Luo Fanchen slowly approached Qiqi.
Hachijo.
Five zhang.
One zhang.
Luo Fanchen stopped and controlled the Phantom Sword Array to envelop Qi Qi's body.
Just when Luo Fanchen controlled the phantom sword array to envelop Qi Qi, Qi Qi seemed to have sensed something, and instantly opened a pair of big red and green eyes and glanced around.
On the surrounding meadow, sometimes shiny fireflies fly, sometimes fall on the grass, and occasionally you can hear the chirping of crickets.
Luo Fanchen held his breath and controlled the phantom sword array to simulate the surrounding scene, fireflies flying, and crickets chirping.
"Chirp...... Chirp ......"
The chirping of crickets rang out again.
Qi Qi raised his head and looked left and right, then looked down at the Star Soul Fruit again, and then continued to lower his head and lean on the ground, closing his eyes and continuing to sleep.
Luo Fanchen saw that Qi Qi relaxed his vigilance, and continued to control the Phantom Sword Array to extend outward, and did not stop until it covered a distance of a hundred meters.
While staring at the Star Soul Fruit, Luo Fanchen controlled the Phantom Sword Array to simulate the surrounding scene, and then quietly waited for the Star Soul Fruit to ripen.
The night is long.
Especially staring at the Star Soul Fruit that might ripen at any time without blinking.
An hour.
......
Two hours.
The starlight emitted by the Star Soul Fruit became brighter and brighter......
"It's about to ripen. ”
Luo Fanchen's eyes lit up, and he immediately controlled the sword yuan in his body, condensing a purple giant sword that was one foot wide and half a zhang long.
The purple giant sword hovered at Luo Fanchen's feet, only an inch above the ground.
Luo Fanchen slowly lay on top of the purple giant sword, without making a sound, controlling the purple giant sword, slowly approaching the Star Soul Fruit, and came to the head of Qi Qi, as long as he stretched out his hand, he could pick the Star Soul Fruit.
From Qi Qi's huge nostrils, he exhaled a hot breath that blew directly on Luo Fanchen's face.
It stinks terribly.
Luo Fanchen showed an expression that almost retched, and immediately controlled the sword yuan in his body and sealed his mouth and nose.
At this moment, the Star Soul Fruit, which was already bright, suddenly shimmered with even more intense starlight.
"It's ripe. ”
Just when the Star Soul Fruit became brighter, Luo Fanchen stretched out his hands at the same time, an open jade box appeared in his left hand, and his right hand pointed at the Star Soul Fruit three times, only to see three egg-sized Star Soul Fruits slowly fall into the jade box.
Luo Fanchen immediately covered the jade box.
At the same time.
The Phantom Sword Array simulated three immature Star Soul Fruits, which were still hanging on top of the Star Soul Fruit Tree.
Put the jade box containing the three Star Soul Fruits into the storage ring, and then control the purple giant sword, slowly retreating along the route to Ten Thousand Swords City.
All the best.
Luo Fanchen forcibly endured the excitement in his heart, came to the edge of the area covered by the Phantom Sword Array, glanced back at Qi Qi, who was still guarding the Star Soul Fruit Tree, and then controlled the Phantom Sword Array to extend outwards with all his might......
The enveloping range of the Phantom Sword Array grew larger and larger, and it did not stop extending until it reached a radius of one mile, which was already the limit that Luo Fanchen could control now.
Reaching the limit of a radius of one mile, Luo Fanchen began to fly with the sword and moved slowly, until the edge of the Phantom Sword Array, which just shrouded Qi Qi's body, fixed the Phantom Sword Array in this area.
"A mile away should be enough. ”
After doing all this, Luo Fanchen condensed dozens of purple flying swords, and then directly left the range enveloped by the Phantom Sword Array.
Sou!
Luo Fanchen flew forward hundreds of meters in an instant, and then immediately controlled dozens of purple flying swords, once again arranged a phantom sword array to envelop himself, and galloped in the direction of Ten Thousand Swords City without looking back......
Luo Fanchen left, and the phantom sword array that had shrouded Qi Qi before was uncontrolled, and the illusion effect was immediately shattered, and Qi Qi was also awakened at this time.
"Moo...... Moo......"
When he woke up, he found that the Star Soul Fruit was missing, and immediately let out an angry howl, and his limbs attacked the ground around him indiscriminately.
The earth shakes and the mountains shake.
Qi Qi spread his wings and soared into the air, his eyes shot a dazzling red light to scan the surroundings, and after seeing no trace, he stretched out his head and sniffed vigorously around, and then galloped away in the direction where Luo Fanchen left.
Qiqi's speed was extremely fast, and he rushed out for two or three miles in an instant, and then stopped and stretched out his head again to sniff, and then chose a direction to gallop forward.
The direction in which Qi Qi left was exactly the same as the route Luo Fanchen left, it may be that Luo Fan Chen left his own breath and made Qi Qi feel ......
......
Although Luo Fanchen's speed was fast, it was much slower than Qi Qi's, and in less than half an hour, Qi Qi appeared behind Luo Fanchen.
Sou!
Qi Qi galloped past Luo Fanchen's head, stopped a hundred meters in front of Luo Fanchen, stretched out his head and sniffed around, and then the direction of the head was fixed in the direction where Luo Fanchen was.
"Damn human, I've seen you, leave the Star Soul Fruit, I can spare your life, otherwise I will make you unable to survive, unable to die. Qi Qi spoke and shouted loudly.
At this time, Luo Fanchen had already stopped his figure, staring at Qi Qi's eyes, seeing that Qi Qi's eyes were not locked on him, he wondered why Qi Qi was able to sense his direction.
"Smell?"
Luo Fanchen instantly guessed that Qi Qi had relied on his sense of smell to track him, and he didn't really see him at this time.
Although Luo Fanchen had refined an array that could shield his breath, and a phantom sword array to conceal his body, he didn't expect that Qi Qi would be able to catch the faint smell emanating from his body.
Luo Fanchen was so close to Qi Qi before, and Qi Qi didn't notice him, it was because Qi Qi was sleeping and didn't concentrate on feeling it.
The Star Soul Fruit, which Qi Qi had been waiting for, was now in Luo Fanchen's bag, so he concentrated on feeling the residual breath in the air, but he didn't expect it to really smell Luo Fanchen's scent.
Luo Fanchen frowned and thought, "I'm in some trouble." ”
"It's really embarrassing. Qi Qi roared again, then opened his bloody mouth and spat out a fireball that was a foot in size and burning with blue flames in the direction where Luo Fanchen was.
Seeing this, Luo Fanchen instantly retreated more than ten zhang back.
"Boom!"
The fireball landed five or six meters away from Luo Fanchen's original position, and exploded instantly, and a large crater of about ten zhang appeared on the ground.
Dusty.
While Luo Fanchen retreated, he took out the jade slip given to him by Shen Xingsoul, quickly investigated the route and danger area marked in the jade slip, and then immediately chose a direction and galloped away.
The dust and smoke cleared.
Qi Qi flew to Luo Fanchen's original position, stared at the surroundings with wide eyes, and saw no trace of Luo Fanchen, so he immediately stretched out his head and sniffed, and then chased in the direction where Luo Fanchen left......
The direction Luo Fanchen chose this time was not to go to Ten Thousand Swords City, but to a dangerous area marked in the jade slip.
The danger area in the jade slip is not marked in any detail, and it is estimated that even the powerhouses of the Sword Soul Sect do not know what the danger is.
Because the people who entered the danger zone basically never reappeared, and they didn't know whether they were trapped in it or fell and died.
The reason why Luo Fanchen chose the danger area was also well thought out, if he escaped along a safe route, it would take at least two or three days to reach Ten Thousand Swords City.
For such a long time, with the strength of the Qi Qi Condensation Period, Luo Fanchen thought that it was impossible for him to arrive in Ten Thousand Swords City safely, and even if he was lucky enough to arrive in Ten Thousand Swords City, it was also unknown whether the strong man of the Sword Soul Sect would have the strength to deal with Qi Qi.
Therefore, Luo Fanchen chose to go to the dangerous area to avoid Qiqi's tracking, and the chance of getting a glimmer of life was greater.
After all, Shen Xingsoul once said that the reason why the Sword Howling Plain was dangerous was because of some formations left behind by god-level powerhouses.
And for Luo Fanchen, he still has confidence in himself, as long as he doesn't encounter a killing formation type formation, the trapped formation and the phantom formation are not life-threatening for him.
Since Qi Qi was able to accurately track Luo Fanchen's location according to his scent, and Luo Fan Chen had also chosen to use the danger area to avoid Qi Qi, Luo Fan Chen no longer had the slightest scruples, and directly summoned the Sky Breaking Sword, no longer using the purple giant sword condensed by the sword yuan as the carrier of the sword's flight.
Sou!
Luo Fanchen's speed suddenly doubled, although it was still not as fast as Qi Qi's flight speed, but Qi Qi would not be able to catch up with him for a while.
At this time, on the Sword Roaring Plain, there was a dramatic scene.
Luo Fanchen flew with all his strength, and every time Qi was about to catch up with Luo Fanchen, he had to stop his body and use his sense of smell to determine the direction, so the distance between Qi Qi and Luo Fanchen was pulled apart again.
Just chased and fled, and before I knew it, more than a quarter of an hour had passed.
"Damn human, wherever you flee, I'm going to tear you to pieces. Qiqi roared as he chased.
When Luo Fanchen heard this, he just smiled slightly, ignored Qiqi's roar, and continued to gallop with his head down......
Half an hour later.
Luo Fanchen had already entered the danger area marked by the jade slip, but Luo Fanchen did not encounter any danger.
Luo Fanchen continued to go deeper into the danger zone, keeping an eye on his surroundings.
Swish!
Luo Fanchen's vision suddenly changed, and a vast grassland appeared, and Edgeworth's galloping body suddenly fell from the air and fell heavily on the grass.
"Tick tock!"
Gray clouds drifted in the steppe sky.
It was drizzling.
