"What's the matter, how did that kid know that we were going to take a detour?" Jiufang Zhenren glanced at the few array flags left in the ashes, and said with a slightly gloomy face.

"Maybe it's a coincidence, or maybe he's already got there. Lei Shan Zhenren said in a deep voice, and a wisp of color flashed in his eyes.

"What then?" Jiufang Zhenren frowned.

Originally, they chose to make a detour just to avoid the trap set by Duan Chen, but if they couldn't avoid the detour, then they had no need to make a detour at all, and it was better to chase in a straight line.

"Two seniors, I think we should choose to continue the detour. The precept muttered: "Although the other party has been prepared, it is impossible to do everything, and there is only one person on the other party, even if he has the intention to arrange more traps, I am afraid that he will lack skills." ”

Lei Shan Zhenren nodded, what the precepts said was very reasonable.

However, how did he know that their opponent was not just Duan Chen, no matter how smart they were, they couldn't have imagined that the various Yin Damage Monsters and traps they encountered along the way were all from the Seven Demon Lords and the Heaven Locking Temple Weapon Spirit, Duan Chen was just helping to fight.

"Then let's continue the detour. Lei Shan said in real person.

The next group of three changed direction slightly, and continued to chase in the direction where Duan Chen had escaped.

Time passed quickly, and when the three of Lei Shan Zhenren continued to chase and kill Duan Chen, the outside world exploded because of this matter.

You must know that although the Beiyuan Immortal Palace is not the strongest among the ten immortal sects, it is definitely not the weakest.

The top ten immortal sects, the Beiyuan Immortal Palace, which has been inherited for millions of years, can't even catch a single early Yuan Infant cultivator, which makes all the forces in the entire Donghua Continent look at the jokes of the Beiyuan Immortal Palace, and it also makes all the forces can't help but start investigating Duan Chen's origin.

As the forces of all parties dug deeper, people discovered that Duan Chen, who is now wanted by Beiyuan Immortal Palace, is also not simple.

The Corpse Demon Ancestor was suppressed in the Locked Heaven Palace, forcing the Corpse Demon Ancestor Yuan Ying to go out of his body, and was finally killed by Jian Wuyan.

And outside the Locked Heaven Palace, facing the siege of Yuanying monks from all sides, even with the help of Blood Impermanence and others, Duan Chen's ability to survive was a big miracle in the eyes of everyone in the outside world.

What's even more amazing is that Duan Chen's cultivation has only been fifty years now, and he has already broken through to the Yuanying realm, and I believe that if he is given some more time, his future will definitely be limitless.

But only if he can escape the catastrophe in front of him.

In the end, the Beiyuan Immortal Palace successfully captured Duan Chen and defended the dignity of his top ten immortal sects, or did Duan Chen go all the way to the sky and get rid of the pursuit of the Beiyuan Immortal Palace.

Such a topic has now become a topic of conversation among all forces in the entire Donghua Continent after dinner.

However, the vast majority of people are not optimistic about Duan Chen.

Although Duan Chen has recently gained fame and is in the limelight, he seems to be a representative of the younger generation, but in the eyes of all forces, his current strength is far from enough.

Defeating the Corpse Demon Ancestor and being promoted to the Yuanying realm certainly made him famous, but it also made all forces couldn't help but look at him a little impressed.

But in the face of a behemoth like the Beiyuan Immortal Palace, not to mention the Yuan Infant Stage, it is the Divine Transformation Stage Cultivator, which is obviously not enough.

Therefore, although out of sympathy for the weak, many people hoped that Duan Chen would escape this fate, but in fact, not many people were optimistic about him.

However, as the news spread that the Avatar Cultivator sent by the Beiyuan Immortal Palace had not caught Duan Chen, overnight, the direction of the wind in the world suddenly changed.

Especially those monks who were born in casual cultivation, they themselves had some problems dealing with the ten major immortal sects, and when they found out that Duan Chen was able to hold on to the pursuit of the Beiyuan Immortal Palace for so long, many casual cultivators began to secretly support Duan Chen, and enthusiastically provided all kinds of information.

For example, spreading the blockade line arranged by the Beiyuan Immortal Palace and its subordinate forces in the Tianmu Mountain Range, and helping Duan Chen plan the best escape route, etc.

In short, as long as Duan Chen was not caught by the Beiyuan Immortal Palace for a day, the expectations of the scattered cultivators for this battle would be higher and higher.

You must know that in the past, when they faced the monks of the Ten Immortal Dao Sects, they often had a feeling of inferiority, but now that they have such an opportunity to give the Ten Immortal Dao Sects a stone, many of them naturally spare no effort.

Of course, this kind of thing can't come openly, so many small actions of casual cultivation are still only carried out in secret.

However, unlike the caution of the loose cultivators, the actions of the Demon God Society were made with great fanfare.

After Duan Chen persisted for nearly three months in the face of the pursuit and killing of Lei Shan Zhenren and others, some demon monks of the Demon God Society, represented by the Nine Demon Emperors, expressed their solidarity with Duan Chen on various public occasions several times, and severely condemned the shameless behavior of crossing the river and demolishing the bridge in the Beiyuan Immortal Palace.

And not long after, the Ten Thousand Demon Sect and the Heavenly Demon Palace also stood up and expressed their willingness to provide protection for Duan Chen.

At the same time, those forces and monks who assisted the Beiyuan Immortal Palace in chasing down Duan Chen suddenly found that their actions began to be obstructed by some demon cultivators, and the small-scale harassment and conflict quickly intensified.

Obviously, the demonic forces led by the Ten Thousand Demon Sect and the Heavenly Demon Palace, although they had no way to take the Beiyuan Immortal Palace, they were still more than enough to deal with the subsidiary forces under their command, and they did not give them a chance to jointly encircle Duan Chen.

Even some demon cultivators called on those monks who were wanted by the Ten Immortal Dao Sects to stand up and resist together, and in the end, someone really responded.

For a time, the entire Tianmu Mountain Range was very lively.

Some people are watching the excitement in secret, some people are using the topic to play, and some people want to fish in troubled waters, which makes the whole situation extremely complicated in a blink of an eye, and also makes the pressure on Beiyuan Immortal Palace increase sharply.

And Duan Chen, the focus of attention from all parties this time, was sitting in an extremely secret underground cave with his eyes closed at this time, practicing the cause cutting technique. Daxia Chinese Network

I don't know how long it has been, Duan Chen suddenly opened his eyes, and a smile appeared on his face.

For more than three months, while trying to get rid of the pursuit of Lei Shan Zhenren and others, he also took the time to comprehend cause and effect and practice the cause cutting technique.

Now he has finally cultivated this secret art to the realm of Xiaocheng.

In the dark, he could sense as if there were countless invisible causal lines around him, connecting himself with others, one of which was very close to him, in the Tianmu Mountains.

"Looks like that's it. ”

Duan Chen's mind sensed the existence of that causal line, and followed the silent operation of the cause cutting technique, and a faint causal force immediately burst out from his body, quickly condensing into a sharp blade, and slashed quickly.

Suddenly, the invisible line of cause and effect broke open from it, and then quickly disappeared.

However, although he successfully cut off the causal line, Duan Chen was still a little uneasy, and the voice transmission asked, "Senior, now they shouldn't be able to lock my whereabouts, right?"

"Well, as long as you can leave the Tianmu Mountains smoothly, you can rest easy. The Seven Demon Lords replied.

"That's good. Duan Chen nodded, followed the movement of his body, and quickly left this area and flew towards the periphery of the Tianmu Mountain Range.

And not long after Duan Chen left, three figures immediately appeared in the underground cave where he had been hiding.

"Is this here?" Lei Shan Zhenren turned his face to look at the precepts.

"Yes, Senpai. The precept replied respectfully: "He must have been here before, but now he ......."

"Where are you now?" asked Lei Shan Zhenren a little impatiently.

"This junior doesn't know either. The precept said cautiously: "The other party seems to have practiced the cause cutting technique, the cause and effect tracing technique of the juniors...... It is no longer possible to detect its whereabouts. ”

"Cause Cutting Technique?" Jiufang Zhenren's face instantly became extremely ugly.

So far, they have hunted down Duan Chen for more than three months, and in the past three months, they can be said to have suffered a lot.

In particular, many of the traps arranged by Duan Chen were insidious and primitive, making them unable to guard against them, and they were hit continuously.

If it weren't for their strength being strong enough, I am afraid that they would have been injured and fallen by now.

However, even so, the True Men of the Nine Directions never felt that Duan Chen would be able to run away from their pursuit, but now......

Lei Shan Zhenren's face was not very good-looking, and after a moment of silence, he sighed and said, "Suspend the pursuit of Duan Chen, report this matter to the Inner Palace first, and wait for the Inner Palace to decide." ”

"That's all there is to it. Jiufang Zhenren nodded, but he knew that even if he reported this matter to the Inner Palace, he was afraid that it would be useless.

Soon, they received news from the Inner Palace.

"The Inner Palace asked us to continue to hunt down Duan Chen, but we couldn't make as much fanfare as before. Lei Shan Zhenren said with a strange expression.

"From light to dark?" asked the real person of Jiufang.

That's pretty much what it means. Lei Shan Zhenren smiled bitterly: "It said that they will use the intelligence network of the Evil Alliance to help us track down Duan Chen's clues, and once there is any news, they will notify us as soon as possible." ”

"So what do we do now?" Jiufang Zhenren frowned.

"Go to the Western Regions. Lei Shan Zhenren muttered: "Judging from the previous escape route of that kid, he should be planning to go to the Western Regions, maybe we can go there to try our luck." ”

"Okay, let's go to the Western Regions. Jiufang Zhenren nodded, and then looked at the precepts on the side and said lightly: "Precept Master nephew, there is nothing for you here, you can return to Tianhang Temple first." ”

"Yes. The precept nodded, and then flew towards the east of the Tianmu Mountain Range alone.

As for the Lei Shan Zhenren and the Jiufang Zhenren, they continued to fly towards the west of the Tianmu Mountain Range.

... ...

In the Western Regions, in a deep hall where the original Tianchen Sect Mountain Gate was located, the Nine Demon Emperor listened carefully to the reports of his subordinates, and said with a little surprise: "You mean that the precept has returned to the Heavenly Hanging Temple?"

"Yes. The subordinates nodded and said, "I don't know what happened, the precepts and the Lei Shan Zhenren have already separated." ”

The Nine Demon Emperor couldn't help but fall into deep thought when he heard this, and only raised his head after a while: "It seems that Duan Chen has found a way to crack the causal tracing technique. Well, it's not easy. ”

"Can the causal tracing technique be cracked?" his subordinates were surprised: "Then isn't the Beiyuan Immortal Palace all the previous efforts wasted this time?"

"Don't underestimate Beiyuan Immortal Palace. The Nine Demon Emperor smiled: "But at present, they really have no way to take Duan Chen, this is interesting." ”

After a slight pause, he continued: "Spread the news, it's rare to see Beiyuan Immortal Palace make a fool, we don't help them at this time, but it's really unreasonable." ”

"Yes. The subordinates smiled knowingly and slowly bowed out of the hall.
