The time to escape was always rushed and urgent, and Duan Chen and Zhuge Xuanshuang didn't even have time to check the situation around them.

The only thing to be thankful for is that along the way, the four of them passed safely all the way and were not intercepted and attacked by anyone again.

But this made Duan Chen feel uneasy.

Seeing his solemn expression, Zhuge Xuanshuang couldn't help but ask, "What are you thinking?"

Duan Chen frowned and said: "There is a problem, no matter how the four of us rush day and night, the speed is definitely not as fast as the demon god will use the teleportation array with the Northern Xia royal family to hurry, but until now we have not encountered interception, the situation is a little wrong." ”

Zhuge Xuanshuang nodded and said: "Yes, the Demon God Society and the Northern Xia royal family can use the teleportation array between the cities to hurry, and the speed is far above us, and we have not encountered the intercepted demon cultivators now, and the situation is indeed a little wrong." ”

Duan Chen said in a deep voice: "Yes, I'm worried that they are arranging the defense line, once the defense line is completed, we will become a turtle in the urn." ”

Zhuge Xuanshuang was stunned for a moment, and said: "The Demon God Society and the Northern Xia royal family want to arrange a defense line, but I am afraid that many people will be needed." ”

There are quite a few monks of the Four Dynasties who escaped from the Northern Xia Royal City this time, and if the Demon God Society and the Northern Xia Royal Family want to set up a defensive line on the periphery to stop everyone, the scope is so wide that the manpower that needs to be mobilized is not only one or two thousand people can achieve it.

Duan Chen smiled bitterly: "This is the Northern Xia Dynasty, the most important thing they lack is people, and it is not necessary to send masters to arrange the defense line, even the simple task of stalking can be done by Qi refining cultivators, as long as they can grasp our whereabouts, and then send False Dan or even Jindan monks through the teleportation array, then it will be difficult for us to escape." ”

Zhuge Xuanshuang asked, "Then what can you do?"

Duan Chen muttered: "First of all, we must bypass the major cities of the Northern Xia Dynasty, there is a teleportation array in the city, and there must be heavy guards, if I am the head of the Demon God Society and the Northern Xia royal family, if I want to arrange the defense line, it will naturally be arranged with the city with the teleportation array as the center." ”

Zhuge Xuanshuang nodded and said, "Then what's next?"

Duan Chen smiled bitterly: "Next, we can only rush out desperately, and rush out before their defense line is completely arranged, so that it will be difficult for the Demon God Society and the monks of the Northern Xia Royal Family to lock our whereabouts." ”

At this time, Gu Ling'er, who had been meditating and pranayama with her eyes closed, suddenly spoke: "I'm afraid that we can't be faster than the Demon God Society and the Northern Xia royal family." ”

Li Mubai opened his eyes and sighed, "Yes, they have a teleportation array to hurry, and we can't beat them faster no matter what." ”

Gu Linger shook her head slightly and said, "Even if there is no teleportation array, we will still be intercepted. ”

Duan Chen and Zhuge Xuanshuang reacted immediately.

I only heard Zhuge Xuanshuang sigh and said: "Yes, the Demon God Society has been operating in the Northern Xia Dynasty for hundreds of years, and now even the Northern Xia royal family has taken refuge in the Demon God Society, and those immortal cultivation families and sects living in the Northern Xia Dynasty are afraid that most of them have been controlled by the Demon God Society, so even if there is no teleportation array, as long as the order of the Demon God Society is conveyed, these immortal cultivation families and sects will also do their best to hunt us down." ”

Gu Linger nodded and said, "That's exactly the reason. ”

Li Mubai suddenly realized, followed by looking at Gu Linger and asked: "In the past, the master often praised your senior sister for your unparalleled intelligence, think about it, senior sister, you should have already thought of a way to get out, right?"

Gu Linger smiled lightly: "I don't dare to be a talented person, as for the way to get out, as far as our current situation is concerned, although there are not too many ways, there are three ways to go." ”

Li Mubai said: "Which three roads?"

Duan Chen and Zhuge Xuanshuang also looked at Gu Ling'er and listened intently.

Gu Linger said: "The first way is to escape, as Duan Daoyou said, before the defense line of the Demon God Society and the Northern Xia Royal Family is not completed, and the second way is to hide in the territory of the Northern Xia Dynasty while trying to avoid the pursuit of the Demon God Society and the Northern Xia Royal Family, and delay until the reinforcements sent by the king arrive." ”

After a slight pause, she continued: "As for the third way, it is more risky, if it really can't support the reinforcements to come, then we can only find a way to snatch a teleportation array, and use the teleportation array to get rid of the pursuit of the Demon God Society and the Northern Xia royal family." ”

Duan Chen nodded and said, "Although it is a bit risky to snatch the fact of the teleportation array, if you can't do it, instead of sitting and waiting, it is better to give it a go, or you can fight for a glimmer of life." ”

Gu Linger sighed: "I just said it casually, I hope the situation will not be so bad as it gets." ”

Next, the four of them took turns urging the Spirit Sword Boat to hurry, and before they knew it, they had escaped thousands of miles and came to the Nanling Mountain Range located in the south of the Northern Xia Dynasty.

When Duan Chen took Daoist Huixian all the way north to the Northern Xia King City, he once crossed the Nanling Mountain Range once, and he was not unfamiliar with the environment here.

The Nanling Mountains are full of mountains, but not all of the peaks here are tall, on the contrary, most of the peaks are very low, and the height will never exceed 200 zhang, and Nanling Peak is one of the few peaks in the Nanling Mountains with a height of more than 500 zhang.

However, today's Nanling Peak looks a little different from the usual, there is a dead silence, and there is not even a single insect song or bird calling.

Duan Chen immediately sensed that something was wrong, and immediately beckoned Zhuge Xuanshuang and the three of them to stop, put away the spirit sword boat, covered his body with the dense trees in the mountain, and quietly flew towards the Nanling Peak in the distance.

Soon, they discovered an anomaly on the South Ridge Peak.

A team of monks, numbering about two or three hundred, was stationed in the area around Nanling Peak, all of whom were wearing uniform sect attire, and there was a red cloud mark on their clothing.

Duan Chen recognized this red cloud mark, and immediately secretly said, "It's a disciple of the Luoxia Sect." ”

Zhuge Xuanshuang hadn't heard of any Luoxia Sect, and immediately asked, "What is the strength of this sect?"

Duan Chen said: "The strength is very average, as far as I know, the sect master of this Luoxia Sect is not able to build the foundation of the Great Perfection, I think we can directly control the Spirit Sword Boat and rush over." ”

Gu Linger suddenly asked, "Is there a way to bypass them?"

Duan Chen muttered: "If you want to pass through the Nanling Mountain Range, you can walk the fastest way from the Nanling Peak, if you want to go around the Nanling Peak, you will have to go around in a big circle to pass through the Nanling Mountain Range, and it will be time-consuming and laborious, and we don't dare to guarantee that there are no other family sect cultivators guarding other places." ”

Gu Linger closed her eyes and nodded, "Since that's the case, then let's rush over in one go." ”

Zhuge Xuanshuang and Li Mubai didn't have any opinions on this, and the four of them re-sacrificed the spirit sword boat and turned into a streamer, and rushed directly towards Nanling Peak.

The Sect Master of the Luoxia Sect, who was stationed on the Nanling Peak, immediately discovered the streamer of the Spirit Sword Boat, and immediately let out a long howl, and shouted loudly from afar: "Who is coming?"

Duan Chen and the four of them turned a deaf ear to the shouting and questioning of the Luoxia Sect Master, and manipulated the Spirit Sword Boat with all their strength to rush over.

Duan Chen, Li Mubai and Gu Ling'er have all broken through to the peak of foundation building, and Zhuge Xuanshuang has broken through to the realm of foundation building, the four of them joined forces to urge the spirit sword boat with all their might, and the spirit sword boat instantly turned into an incomparably thick sword light, and flew up to Nanling Peak with a swish.

The Sect Master of Luoxia Sect was taken aback, and hurriedly dodged to the side.

And the dozens of Luoxia Sect disciples who had originally gathered beside him also scattered and fled, and when they reacted and wanted to intercept them, Duan Chen and the four of them had already flown over Nanling Peak in the Spirit Sword Boat and disappeared into the distant sky.

The Sect Master of the Luoxia Sect reacted quickly, and shouted urgently: "Summon, quickly summon and notify the nearby Fake Dan seniors." ”

At this time, the four Duan Chen, who had successfully rushed through Nanling Peak, did not have the slightest look of joy on their faces, although they had now flown away from Nanling Peak, they had also revealed their whereabouts.

Li Mubai said with a solemn expression: "We must leave this area as soon as possible, and the pursuers will arrive immediately." ”

Duan Chen muttered, "I think we should first find a place to recover the mana in our bodies and prepare for battle." ”

Zhuge Xuanshuang's heart moved, and he asked, "Are you trying to ambush the pursuers?"

Duan Chen nodded and said: "The number of masters of the Demon God Society and the Northern Xia Royal Family is limited, they have to arrange a defensive line to surround everyone, then the number of False Dan Monks distributed in an area will never be too much, if we can ambush and injure, or even kill the False Dan Monks stationed in this area, then our next escape will be very easy, and we can also achieve the effect of killing chickens and setting an example to monkeys." ”

Li Mubai frowned when he heard this: "I'm not afraid of the fake Dan monk, but what if it's the Jindan powerhouse who chases after me?"

Duan Chen looked at Li Mubai and asked, "What else do you say?"

Li Mubai obviously didn't understand, and said with a puzzled expression: "How do I know this?"

Gu Linger said: "Senior brother, if it is the Jindan powerhouse who is chasing, then it will be useless whether we fight or flee, so there is no need to consider this situation." ”

Li Mubai suddenly realized.

Indeed, if it is the Jindan powerhouse that is chasing, even if the four of them rush day and night, they are afraid that it will be difficult to escape the pursuit of the Jindan powerhouse, as for ambushing the Jindan strongman, even if Li Mubai is not very smart, he knows that the four of them are still no match for the Jindan powerhouse when they join forces.

Duan Chen fell into contemplation at this moment, in fact, he had already guessed that there would be such a day, but since he had decided to ambush the pursuers, he naturally had to consider various situations.

The first thing to consider is the worst-case scenario.

On the premise of excluding the Jindan powerhouse chasing after them, if it was the fake Dan powerhouse who came, how would the four of them fight against it?

Although he has now broken through to the pinnacle of foundation building, coupled with many means such as the Jiuyang Demon Body and the Jiuyang Golden Body, it is not impossible to fight with the Fake Dan Monk, and he may not be able to win, Duan Chen has no confidence at all in his heart.

As for Zhuge Xuanshuang, he has now broken through to the realm of foundation building, and with Duan Chen's understanding of sword cultivation, Zhuge Xuanshuang's current strength should be more than enough to deal with a fake Dan monk.

The only thing to worry about is the strength of Li Mubai and Gu Ling'er, the two senior siblings.

Duan Chen didn't know much about the strength of the two, but he wasn't sure how long the two would be able to support each of them if they faced a fake Dan monk.
