Morning.

Around ten o'clock.

At what was supposed to be the time when the sun was shining, the sky gradually darkened, and a thin layer of rain and mist slowly fell, bringing a touch of coolness to the dry earth.

At this time, Ling Ping and Xia Qing had just chased a group of disciples to the vicinity of this valley.

More than two hours had passed since Xing Ying escaped from Xia Long City, and they had been chasing for nearly an hour.

This was not the fastest speed of Ling Ping and Xia Qing, but because the disciples were only in the Star King Realm, their speed was not fast, so they could only slow down and take care of these disciples.

By the way, you can also take advantage of this time to recover the star power consumed by the battle with Shangguan Ming just now.

"It's raining ......"

Ling Ping looked up at the sky, and the light rain hit his body, which was bounced away by the faint layer of star power on the outside.

"You're still in the mood to enjoy the rain, if you don't chase it quickly, what if that kid hides in which city or village? ”

Xia Qing frowned: "Moreover, it can only be used once a day, and in such a long time, there will definitely be a lot of variables." ”

"Why aren't you in the mood? We've already caught up. ”

Ling Ping responded lightly.

"Where?"

Xia Qing looked around suspiciously, it was empty, and there was no one.

Soon, though, her eyes were fixed on the valley and she asked, "You mean...... Where is he hiding?"

Ling Ping nodded.

"Impossible, right? Is he so bold as not to go forward, but to hide in a valley?"

Xia Qing was puzzled.

"You can look in the air, there are empty and flat roads within a radius of dozens of miles, and there are at least two hundred miles away from the nearest village and town. ”

"Even if that kid knew the location of the village, he wouldn't dare to go any further, because he would be stopped by us halfway before he reached the village. ”

"So, I think he's going to hide in this valley. ”

Ling Ping analyzed.

"You're so sure, what if he doesn't think about it so much and just runs all the way?"

Xia Qing questioned.

"Of course, it can't be ruled out that he's an idiot, so you can go ahead and search, and if you don't find any trace of him, it's never too late to come back. ”

Ling Ping thought for a moment and gave a suggestion.

"I'll go alone, you take your disciples to that valley first. ”

Xia Qing quickly made a decision, and the lotus foot stomped lightly, flying into the air like a sharp sword, and her efficiency alone was faster.

Ling Ping took the disciples of the Heavenly Gu Sect and the Hundred Flowers Sect and headed towards the valley.

After entering the valley and looking at it, Ling Ping was even more sure of his guess, this terrain is so complicated, it is simply an excellent location for Tibetans, that kid will definitely be tempted.

About ten minutes later, Xia Qing came back, and Ling Ping cast an inquiring look, she shook her head, indicating that she hadn't found it.

"Very well, he must be hiding here, and we will surround this valley and catch turtles in an urn. ”

A cold light flashed in Ling Ping's eyes.

The crowd dispersed.

This time, the Heavenly Gu Sect brought out thirty disciples, and the Hundred Flowers Sect brought twenty disciples, plus their two leaders, there were as many as fifty-two people in total, which could expand the encirclement a lot.

Moreover, they are a team of one, each searching for one direction.

Because the lowest cultivation among the people present was all in the middle of the Star King Realm, and it was not easy to deal with a teenager from the Star Sea Realm, so there was no need to search together.

......。

Between a broken cliff, a few branches grew obliquely, and the leaves on the branches were luxuriant, like a large clump of grass.

A pair of black and white eyes appeared through the gaps between the branches and leaves, and a young man with long hair and a shawl and a cold face was squatting on the branches, hiding his figure with the help of the lush leaves.

The branch could not have carried the weight of an adult, but in the stealth state, his body was as light as nothing, and he could easily stand on the branch without breaking it.

"Do you go it alone......"

Xing Ying's position was just right to overlook below, and he could clearly see the behavior of the group of people, and guessed their thoughts in an instant.

This method of dispersion and encirclement worked for others, but it did not work for him at all.

He had come to the valley more than half an hour before these people, and had a rough look at the terrain, which was very complicated, with many muddy roads, swampy roads, curved roads, and all kinds of steep rock walls and mountain paths.

Although the terrain is complicated, it is still flat for him.

Once in the valley, he realized the true power of the skill of stealth, which is simply tailor-made for the wild and can adapt to any terrain.

The ground in the valley is muddy, and even a light woman will have shallow footprints on it.

But Xing Ying will not, even if he walks on the soft and wet soil, there will not be a trace of footprints, which can be described as a sentence of stepping on the snow without a trace.

As long as he enters the stealth state, he is a ghost, coming and going in the valley without a trace.

"Skill book. ”

Xing Ying called silently in his heart.

Suddenly, the progress of the task was displayed in front of you.

【Achievement Mission】

"Base Mission: Stay Stealthy (4:50:37). ”

"Advanced Mission: ???"

......。

After a few days of daily stealth, there are still 4 hours, 50 minutes and 37 seconds left in the mission.

After he broke through to the middle stage of the Star Sea Realm, plus taking the spiritual liquid, he could already maintain a sneaking state for about an hour and a half a day, which was converted, that is, three or four days to complete the task.

"Anyway, I have to hide in the valley, it's better to hide for a few more days, just in time to complete the task. ”

Xing Ying quickly made a plan in his heart.

He didn't dare to flee the valley at once, because these people were very careful and would pay attention to the exits of the valley.

So he had to hide here for a few more days, making a noise every now and then, so that the people could focus their attention on searching the valley before they could find a chance to escape.

"Then I'll play with you. ”

Xing Ying took a deep breath, his eyes becoming cold.

Chased by them outside, he was like a dog, but in the valley he had a unique skill advantage.

As long as he didn't get too close to Ling Ping and Xia Qing, the two super powerhouses, even if the other Star King Realm disciples stood next to him, they wouldn't be able to spot him in the stealth state at all, no different from the invisible man.

In this case, it is completely possible to get some interest back......

The corners of Xing Ying's mouth hooked, revealing a cold and cruel smile.

Then he bent over, slowly retreated, left the branches of the cliff, and then came to the bottom, silently climbing a tree more than seven meters high.

After all, standing on that kind of small branch requires you to keep sneaking on, otherwise you will step on it, and now there is not so much star power to consume, so you can only hide it by changing a big tree.

Hiding in a tree, Xing Ying slowed down his breathing.

Quietly wait for the night to come.
