Chapter 424: Chasing Soldiers
Meixi City is just an ordinary mortal county seat, but it is more than twenty miles in size, as long as the Jindan period monks' divine consciousness is fully dispersed, this county town can be completely covered.
But Bai Yunfei and Zhou Hall Master, the two Jindan Great Perfection monks, carefully probed back and forth more than ten times with their divine senses, and even swept below the ground, but they still didn't find Qiao Yuan and Zhan Yao.
Moreover, they even carefully investigated those black-robed monks with their divine senses, and for this reason, Hall Master Zhou also ordered that none of the black-robed monks were allowed to leave Meixi City.
Some of those black-robed monks fled when the Jindan monks entered the city below, and a small part of them had already fought with the demon beasts to exhaustion.
Now this order of the hall master of Zhou, in their opinion, is no different from executing them.
All of a sudden, the remaining black-robed monks showed despair in their eyes, either looking for a place to hide, or disobeying orders and desperately fleeing outside the city.
Hall Master Zhou was ruthless, and with the mentality of preferring to kill the wrong person and not letting go, he killed all the black-robed monks who tried to escape from Meixi City, and then carefully searched the storage bags and bodies of those people.
The entire Meixi City seemed to have become a purgatory on earth, not only the demon beasts had suffered countless casualties, but the monks below the Jindan stage were also close to being wiped out under the brutal killing of the demon beasts and the Zhou Hall Master.
But even so, Hall Master Zhou and Bai Yunfei did not find Qiao Yuan, and the eight Jindan stage monks guarding the city gate were also injured to varying degrees.
In a half-collapsed restaurant at the East Gate, Qiao Yuan and Zhan Yao were sitting at a table, looking at the two Jindan monks who were fighting bloodily on the upper floor of the East Gate.
"Brother Joe, cheers. ”
Zhan Yao looked leisurely, poured two glasses of wine with a wine jar, and said with a smile.
"You girl, it's all this time, and you still have the leisure to drink. ”
Qiao Yuan tugged at the corners of his mouth and said helplessly, but having said that, his hand naturally picked up the wine glass and touched Zhan Yao.
"It's such a good show, it's so boring to watch. ”
As she spoke, she patted the storage bag, took out a series of snacks such as preserved fruits, chestnuts, peanuts, etc., and ate snacks while drinking wine, watching the fight on the city tower by the way.
Qiao Yuan glanced at her speechlessly, and then ate peanuts while drinking wine.
The Dao robe without a trace of the moon can only be used for one hour, and Qiao Yuan naturally will not be here all the time, but always pay attention to the outside situation, looking for an opportunity to sneak out of Meixi City.
Half an hour later, Bai Yunfei and Hall Master Zhou didn't know how many times they searched this place, but they still didn't find Qiao Yuan's figure, and they even suspected that Qiao Yuan had used some secret method to escape from Meixi City.
"Hall Master Zhou, it's not good to go on like this, Elder Wang and Elder Li are about to lose their grip. ”
The gray-haired old man stood guard at the gap in the west gate, his white beard was stained red with blood, and his face was thick with exhaustion.
After hesitating for a long time, he gritted his teeth and sent a message to Hall Master Zhou.
"Hold on for another two hours, and if we find that kid within two hours, let's go outside the city to find him. ”
Hall Master Zhou clenched his fists, his expression changed rapidly, and finally his face showed a trace of fierceness, and he said.
The white-haired old man breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly informed the other Jindan monks of the news.
When the rest of the Jindan monks heard that they would hold out for two more hours, they all gritted their teeth and took out a large handful of pills and swallowed them.
At the same time, Bai Yunfei and Hall Master Zhou directly no longer probed with their divine senses, but instead used a wide range of magical spells to blast towards the ground.
They thought that if those two people were still in the city, they would just bombard like this, maybe the blind cat would run into a dead mouse and force the two out.
Qiao Yuan and Zhan Yao saw Bai Yunfei casting spells in the sky very hard, and couldn't help but raise their wine glasses and touch them, and the two looked at each other, and they both saw the evil smile on each other's faces.
The Moon Traceless Dao Robe can not only shield the divine sense and conceal the aura, but most importantly, it has a strong defensive power.
Not to mention Bai Yunfei, even the Yuan Infant Cultivator would not want to hurt the two people hiding under the Dao robes.
After a while, Bai Yunfei flew above the heads of the two of them, and the spiritual power of his whole body surged, and with a flick of his big sleeves, a large area of fire rain immediately landed.
The rain of fire fell on the half-collapsed restaurant, and immediately burned the restaurant into a sea of fire, but no one knew that in the sea of fire, there were two people drinking wine and eating peanuts.
"Oops, it's so hot!"
Zhan Yao turned over his hand and took out a water-blue silk scarf, wiped the fragrant sweat left on his forehead, pouted, and said with a dissatisfied face.
"Okay, the play is almost over, let's go. ”
Qiao Yuan drank the last glass of wine, got up and said.
After speaking, he pulled Zhan Yao through the raging sea of fire and went straight to the east gate, neither of them used their spiritual power, but just walked on foot.
At this moment, the demon beasts in the east gate are still the most among the four gates, but most of them are first-order and second-order demon beasts, and most of the hundred refining demon arrays have collapsed, and countless demon beasts have poured into the city.
The two Jindan stage monks were exhausted, ignoring the demon beasts that poured into the city, and at the same time, they also tried to avoid the attacks of those demon beasts, so as to save spiritual power.
Qiao Yuan observed for a while, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and finally his heart moved, and he called Bai Yue out.
After explaining to Bai Yue, Qiao Yuan took out the space bead and entered it with Zhan Yao.
Then Bai Yue opened her mouth to swallow the space bead, and performed the concealment technique, turning into an undetectable silver light, and rushed towards the city gate.
Although most of the demon beasts are pouring from outside the city to the city, it is not impossible for there to be demon beasts running out from the city.
After all, at this moment, Qingxing Xuanyue Flower is no longer there, and it is normal for some demon beasts with low spiritual intelligence to lose their direction.
Above the city tower, the two Jindan stage monks who were resisting the attack of the demon beasts didn't notice at all at this moment, and an undetectable silver light rushed out of the city from inside the city.
After Bai Yue successfully left the city, his speed did not decrease, and he immediately ran farther away.
Along the way, corpses were everywhere, blood flowed like rivers, and there was a steady stream of demon beasts rushing in the distance, Bai Yue couldn't help but have a sense of sadness when he saw the death of a rabbit and a fox.
After another hour, when the sky was gradually turning white, Bai Yue stopped on a hillside.
Looking at the hazy full moon, Bai Yue spit out the space beads, and immediately raised her head and let out a wolf howl full of sorrow.
After Qiao Yuan appeared, he touched Bai Yue's head with pity, and he saw the scene of corpses and rivers of blood flowing all over the place.
Heaven and earth are unkind, and all things are used as dogs, whether it is a monk or a demon beast, they are all one of the many beings struggling between heaven and earth.
In order to be stronger, in order to live longer, what is the difference between a monk and a demon beast, except that a monk has a quick mind, while a demon beast just follows the instinct of survival.
In the final analysis, if there was no Qingxing Xuanyue Flower, Meixi City would still be an ordinary small mortal county, and the demon beasts would still live in the mountains and forests, and there would be no conflict between humans and beasts at all.
But now for the sake of a flower, there are rivers of blood, tens of millions of dead and wounded, and I don't know how many mortals have been displaced and uprooted from their homes.
All of this became a victim of the battle for the Qingxing Xuanyue Flower, and those Jindan monks didn't care about these at all, and even the Venerable One behind them wouldn't even listen to a word, all they cared about was the Qingxing Xuanyue Flower.
Qiao Yuan sighed lightly and looked in the direction of Meixi City, his eyes showing an extremely determined look.
Become stronger, only by becoming stronger will you not become a victim of others, so you don't have to go so hard to snatch the Qingxing Xuanyue Flower, and you don't have to escape in fear.
"Let's go. ”
Qiao Yuan lowered his head, gently rubbed Bai Yue's head, and said softly.
Bai Yue raised her head again and let out a mournful wolf howl, and then turned into a ghostly light and returned to the space bead.
Qiao Yuan raised his hand and wiped it on his face, and immediately changed his appearance into an ordinary young man who could no longer be ordinary, and then he changed into a simple green shirt, took out the Jin Yao Sword, and the imperial sword flew towards the distance.
All the way to the east, after practicing for so long, Qiao Yuan thought that it was time for Zhan Yao, a girl, to break through the retreat, and he had obtained the Qingxing Xuanyue Flower, so he should also calm down and cultivate the Qingyue Heart Sutra.
A day later, Qiao Yuan finally came from the sphere of influence of the Moon Water Sect to the sphere of influence of the Moon River Sect at full speed.
"Oops, it feels so good to get some fresh air. ”
As soon as Zhan Yao came out of the space bead, he immediately looked happy and exhaled deeply.
Qiao Yuan glanced at the endless dense forest below and the white clouds above his head, and his face showed an extremely relaxed look.
"Brother Qiao, where are we going next, do you want to go to another rudder. ”
Zhan Yao stretched his hands and feet, hurriedly came to Qiao Yuan's side, blinked his big eyes, and said excitedly.
"Ghost girl, your guts are getting fatter and fatter, you just picked a rudder, you dare to go to another rudder to jump, be careful of being roasted and eaten. ”
Qiao Yuan stretched out his hand and poked Zhan Yao's smooth forehead, pursed his lips, and said angrily.
"Hey...... , Xiao Yao doesn't have any meat on her, and it's not delicious when it's roasted. ”
Zhan Yao smiled, showing her teeth as neat as pomegranates, and said playfully.
"Don't be poor, let's go home first, after practicing for so long, it's time to retreat and cultivate. ”
Qiao Yuan glanced at her and said solemnly.
"It's okay, first break through to the late stage of foundation building, and next time Xiao Yao will pick another rudder. ”
Zhan Yao blinked her bright peach blossom pupils and nodded.
The two were joking leisurely, but at this moment, an extremely powerful coercion enveloped from behind them, and at the same time, a powerful divine sense was firmly locked on the two of them.
Qiao Yuan and Zhan Yao's expressions immediately changed, their bodies were stunned, and they subconsciously turned their heads to look.
At this glance, there was an empty space behind them, and there was nothing abnormal about the white clouds, but the two of them did clearly feel that a Jindan period monk was flying towards them quickly.
didn't have time to think about it at the moment, Qiao Yuan dragged Zhan Yao onto Jin Yaojian, the spiritual power of his whole body surged wildly, and ten wind cyclones behind him condensed out, and quickly fled into the distance.
"We've all flown tens of thousands of miles, how can anyone still chase us?"
Qiao Yuan's expression was extremely gloomy, frowning, thinking about this question in his heart.
"Brother Qiao, that person...... Is it a Jindan monk from Meixi City?"
At this moment, Zhan Yao also lost her usual ease, her little face was wrinkled, and her beautiful eyes kept flickering.
"That man's divine sense has locked on us, and the goal is very clear, whether it is or not, it is not good. ”
Qiao Yuan couldn't be sure of the identity of the person behind him, and he couldn't see the figure at all when he was detective, obviously that person was still some distance away from them.
"Brother Qiao, how far is this place from the Moon River Sect?"
Zhan Yao's eyes flickered, his thoughts turned quickly, and he hurriedly asked.
"I'm afraid it's too late to go to the Moon River Sect, and now in addition to fighting to the death, I can only find a place to hide. ”
Qiao Yuan's mind was no slower than Zhan Yao's, and as soon as he heard her words at this moment, he understood what it meant.
"Then first look for a place with complicated terrain, who knows if there are other Jindan monks behind that person. ”
Zhan Yao nodded and said without thinking.
After speaking, the two of them flew towards the dense forest below, but at this moment, a woman's voice as cold as snow under the moon floated into the ears of the two of them.
"Two fellow Daoists, please stay, and please listen to me. ”
