Injecting a little mana into the transmission note, the rune flashed, and a voice came into Ye Chen's ears.

Listening to the voice, it was not You Ran who said it, but Xiaoqing.

There was not much content in the transmission note, but the amount of information contained in it made Ye Chen's brows furrow.

But after a moment, it eased again.

Qu Zhaozhao watched Ye Chen's face change one after another, and couldn't help but be curious, "What's wrong?" ”

Ye Chen took a deep breath, "It's not too big, it's a little trouble." ”

"A little trouble?"

"Well, according to what they said, a group of monks are catching up with us."

"Because it's so far apart, we haven't found any clues until now."

"According to what they said, there are quite a few of those monks, at least seven or eight, and all of them are in the late stage of Qi refining, and there are even two Qi Refining Rank 8."

Qu Zhaozhao's face was shocked when he heard this, "Eighth layer of qi refining? ”

Both of them had just broken through the seventh layer of Qi refining, and their overall strength had not yet fully caught up.

Relying on the foundation of the sect monks and the strength of their own magic weapons, they together could deal with several Qi Refining Seventh-level cultivators at the same time without falling behind at all.

But if this is facing so many people at the same time, and there are two eighth-layer among them, then the meaning is completely different.

"It's strange, how can you be targeted in the city?"

Ye Chen was puzzled.

It stands to reason that their whereabouts along the way have been relatively hidden, except for the leakage of a trace of breath due to full speed, there should be no other flaws exposed.

The only possibility is that they have been "marked" by those who have tracked them down.

I tried to open the psionic technique and observed the two of them, but I didn't find anything special.

"I can't find it, but it's not a big problem."

Ye Chen comforted Qu Zhaozhao.

"In the middle of the transmission, in addition to reminding us to be careful of these people, the two of them have also secretly rushed behind this group of people."

"Let's go a little longer, let's find a suitable place and fight a wave of ambushes."

"When the time comes, we'll see if there's a chance to rendezvous."

In all fairness, Ye Chen didn't know why You Ran and the others wanted to help him.

If it were him, if it wasn't someone who was particularly important to him, in the face of this situation, at most he would remind him of the last sentence, and he would already be considered benevolent.

Seven or eight late-stage Qi Refining Cultivators, two of them are at the eighth level of Qi Refining, and this combat power is already outside Kuiyuan Immortal City.

Those who can turn their heads to help are either Gu Dao hot intestines, or they have some other purpose.

But anyway, it's better to be careful next, and prevent gentlemen from villains.

……

On the plains, it is not completely flat.

After a while, it was discovered that there were scattered hill packs.

The backs of these mountain bags belong to the blind spot of the field of vision.

Ye Chen and Qu Zhaozhao hid on the back of a small mountain bag, each made some camouflage on their bodies, and then completely hid their breath, or took out a magic weapon to cover their breath.

If there are really pursuers behind you. Unless they come inch by inch, it is impossible to find them here.

Time passed slowly, and soon there was movement in the distant sky.

The monks of Kuiyuan Immortal City were all fleeing out, and there were people who went in either direction, and there were actually not many people who chose to go in the same direction as Ye Chen and the others.

This time it was a man and a woman, and they didn't look like robbers.

Ye Chen didn't make any moves, and the two people who were quietly waiting flew by.

Two or three waves of monks came in a row, all of them small in number, and they were passing by.

Looking at their cultivation, it is not quite the same as You Ran's description.

It wasn't the goal of the two.

Ye Chen has been lurking, and the concealment method they have done has not been discovered anyway.

After another period of time, finally, a group of seven or eight monks, all of whom were in the late stage of Qi refining, flew in from afar.

When they got together, they behaved in a way that was very different from the other fleeing monks.

Generally speaking, although the fleeing monks would be a little wary of their surroundings, their purpose was basically to stay away from Kuiyuan Immortal City.

Therefore, he will not stay for a short time in this place not far from Kuiyuan Immortal City.

But this was not the case with the monks.

Their leader seemed to have a magic weapon in his hand.

The artifact appeared to be in the shape of a compass, as if to point him in the right direction.

A group of people followed that person, acting under the instructions of the compass magic weapon, flying for a while and then stopping for a while, as if to confirm the direction.

Obviously, these people have exactly the same characteristics as You Ran said.

It's the robbers!

There was no need to make any movements, Ye Chenguang could know from the change of Qu Zhaozhao's aura next to her that she was ready.

In that case, let's do it!

When the group had already reached the sky above the two of them, Ye Chen suddenly attacked.

The black bone sword soared into the sky, and the power of the best magic weapon was fully reflected at this time.

The persimmon had to be pinched softly, and the primary target Ye Chen chose was a seventh-level Qi refining cultivator at the back of the team.

Due to the fact that this group of people was pursuing, they didn't have much vigilance in their hearts, so this person's talisman shield was not opened.

Ye Chen's sword was extremely fast, and the man barely made any resistance before he was stabbed straight into his heart by this one, and when he came out again, it had already penetrated his entire chest and went straight to his head.

Two important parts of the body were destroyed, and even a monk with extremely strong vitality could no longer have the power to resist at this time.

If it weren't for some panacea, or if the rescue was timely, he would be dead at this time.

Almost at the same time as Night City made a move, Qu Zhaozhao's side had already made a move.

Her goal was different from Ye Chen, Ye Chen was going to kill and injure the living force, and she just chose to take advantage of the sneak attack to release a large-scale spell that had been brewing for a long time.

A rain of fire suddenly fell from the sky, and it appeared right above the heads of the monks.

This fire rain is extremely powerful, Ye Chenguang can see with this violent mana fluctuation that this movement is definitely not Qu Zhaozhao's own hand, but what magic weapon or other means are used.

Unlike his sword, which directly ended a monk, Qu Zhaozhao's spell did not have a very obvious killing effect.

But it caught everyone off guard.

Almost instantly, three or four people were hit by the rain of fire, although the power of this rain was not fatal, but it also exploded on their bodies in an instant, with several more bowl-sized wounds and countless burning blood holes.

The flames are eerie. There seems to be a tendency to use their bodies as fuel, and the more they burn, the more vigorous they get.

It was the first time Ye Chen had seen Qu Zhaozhao use this method, and he was quite surprised, but the movements in his hands did not slow down a little.

The black bone sword quickly shuttled through the crowd, and the two people with fire on their bodies were wailing, and they were directly hit by the black bone sword before they had time to make any effective means of resistance.

Although they did not die directly, they basically lost their combat power.

Almost in a single face, the sneak attack of the two people directly reduced the other three people, and also caused the other people's combat effectiveness to be weakened to varying degrees.

Except for those two Qi Refining Eighth Layers, everyone else had some injuries on their bodies.

However, what made Ye Chen and Qu Zhaozhao more disappointed was that the attrition caused by their sneak attack just now was basically a seventh-level Qi refining cultivator.

The reactions of the two Qi Refining Eight Layers were extremely fast, and each of them used extraordinary defensive means, and Qu Zhaozhao's fire rain had almost no effect on them, and they were not even injured at all.

Despite this, the results of this sneak attack are enough.

After the two of them succeeded together, they didn't love fighting, and directly got up and took out the flying magic weapon. began to flee quickly.

Don't look at the fact that they almost lost half of the opponent's people with one blow. But in fact, the opponent's main combat power was still those two cultivators who practiced seven or eight layers.

It is no exaggeration to say. A cultivator who practiced the seventh or eighth layer did not have much pressure to deal with two or three seventh-level Qi refining cultivators at the same time for a period of time.

Even if the combat power is slightly stronger, it is not impossible to fight back.

Ye Chen: The three of them were all Qi Refining Seventh-Layer cultivators, but in fact, they didn't reduce the opponent's combat power much.

Therefore, if you are facing the enemy head-on at this time, it is actually extremely inappropriate.

The monks who can cultivate to the seventh, seventh, and eighth level of refining are not stupid.

Almost at the moment when Ye Chen and the others began to flee, they also divided their labor and cooperated.

Not to mention the two seriously injured monks who were dying, the remaining two intact Qi Refining Seventh Layers all gave up the pursuit, and instead chose to take out the pill and turn around to treat their companions.

Unlike those temporary teams that are cobbled together, they look quite organized.

The remaining two Qi Refining Eighth-Layer Qi Refining Layer chose to pursue Ye Chen and the others.

This organizational strength, seeing Ye Chen's frowning, realized that something was wrong.

These people are definitely not ordinary casual cultivators!

On the way to escape, Ye Chen did not use the white jade shuttle that he had been using for a long time, but chose to stand on top of Qu Zhaozhao's magic weapon.

The two of them didn't have much attainment in flying magic weapons and speed, and they would definitely not be able to outrun the two Qi Refining Eighth Layer cultivators just by running.

Three or four runes were thrown out after being stimulated by him, all of which were extremely powerful range spells.

These runes are not intended to hurt others, but serve as a hindrance to the progress of the other party.

Sure enough, although the two of them were angry and chased all the way, they did not ignore these responsible existences and avoided them one after another.

This avoidance effort made Mr. Ye and them spend a long distance.

But this distance can only be said to have a better effect than nothing.

Although they fell behind a lot at first, the two still caught up with a speed visible to the naked eye.

Ye Chen only called me bad in his heart, and took out more and more rune paper in his hand.

At this time, the distance between the two sides is quite far, and they have reached the range of his magic weapon attack, and at this time, these runes can play the greatest role.

The two sides chased me and fled, and in an instant, they flew out of the land for miles in a year.

"Fuck you, don't run!" An eighth-level Qi refining cultivator was obviously angry, and even scolded directly.

What Ye Shen didn't know was that the person he killed at the beginning was the person's own brother who had a good relationship.

The revenge of killing my brother is not shared.

Although he may not take family affection very seriously, he can't bear this kind of humiliation of being attacked and played with by others.

The two Qi Refining Eighth Layers, almost all of them had already urged the maximum speed of their flying magic weapons, but under their pursuit at the expense of mana, although Ye Chen used many means to hinder it, the distance between the two sides was still getting closer and closer.

Seeing that the two were about to catch up, after Ye Chen and Qu Zhaozhao whispered, Qu Zhaozhao suddenly slowed down, and at the same time, Ye Chen also strained his legs and glared fiercely at the magic weapon.

The other party was in pursuit at a very fast speed, and Qu Zhaozhao slowed down, which directly caused the distance between the two sides to be extremely close.

And Ye Chen's movement in the opposite direction made him rush straight to the door of one of them at a speed that the two people who were chasing him couldn't dodge at all.

"Damn, it's actually physical cultivation!"

Even if Ye Chen was caught off guard this time, that person reacted very quickly.

He already had a magic shield on his body, and he was not afraid of Ye Chen's attack at all, but directly controlled two sword magic weapons at the same time and flew towards Ye Chen.

There are not many people who can control two sword magic weapons at the same time for battle during the Qi refining period, which shows that this person has a certain ability.

These two magic weapons, one sword and one sword, seem to be a complete set of magic weapons.

The power is also quite extraordinary, and the aura that blooms on it makes Ye Chen's heart shrink as well.

This is definitely a treasure among the top-grade magic weapons, and it is almost close to the category of the best magic weapons!

Even with his knowledge, after the power of these two magic weapons was fully exerted, it was no longer much weaker than his current black bone sword.

These two are definitely not ordinary casual cultivators!

For this point, Ye Chen was extremely sure at this time.

Under this kind of close-range attack, he didn't have any room to dodge at all.

However, Ye Chen was not afraid.

The shield of the Black Bone Sword Case opened with his inspiration.

The magic shield, which far exceeded the strength of ordinary defensive magic weapons, played an extremely crucial role at this time.

"Boom!"

Those two magic weapons hit the magic shield almost at the same time, even if it was the magic shield released by the best magic weapon, countless extremely obvious cracks inevitably appeared at this time.

But, resisted!

This is an opportunity!

When controlling magic weapons, especially when controlling two magic weapons at the same time. That is, it is absolutely impossible to be distracted from doing anything else.

Ye Chen took advantage of this opportunity, and while rushing towards the opponent's door with extreme speed, the black bone sword shot straight away.

"Click!"

"Poof!"

Two movements, one in front and one in the back, sounded almost simultaneously.

The first sound was the sound of the man's magic shield shattering, and the second sound was the sound of Ye Chen's black bone sword piercing through the human body.

The Black Bone Sword, hit!

It's just that the person's reaction action is also extremely fast, after penetrating the magic shield, the speed of the black bone sword can't help but be reduced to a large extent, and Ye Chen didn't hit his vital point.

Although this sword pierced his body, it only penetrated the position of his abdomen!
