Volume 3 Chapter 201 The Road to Escape
The northern part of the Jin Kingdom was vast, about a thousand miles long, and in addition to the three major sects and some important cities, there were many small sects and towns scattered all over the place.
The three of them walked all the way south, and the monks kept chasing after them.
In the past few days, they have already met several groups of cultivators, some of whom are casual cultivators, but most of them are disciples of the three major sects.
The news of the birth of the overlord spread quickly in the north, and the name Ma Xie gradually spread to the royal capital.
Although a divine weapon will not attract the peeps of those famous cultivators and major sects, for casual cultivators and some small sects, it is a great blessing to be able to get a divine weapon.
Therefore, most of the people chasing behind Ma Xie were cultivators who tried in vain to rely on a divine weapon to improve their combat effectiveness.
Among all the chasers, the three Jade Venerables were the hardest-working. They knew that they had not completed the orders of the King of Jin and would definitely be punished if they returned, so they set their sights on Ma Xie again, hoping to regain the trust of the King of Jin by regaining the Flowing Fire of the Overlord.
And the Aoba's Scattered Cultivation Alliance is the biggest beneficiary after this treasure hunting event.
All the treasures that Qingye obtained in the secret realm were given to the cultivators, including the half of the pure spirit baby bee hive, which contained a slow royal jelly, and the effectiveness of this thing was much stronger than the pure spirit baby bee itself.
Where have the scattered cultivators seen these things, they all regard Qingye Zi as the savior of the scattered cultivation, and they all make great vows to defend the scattered cultivation alliance to the death.
Seeing that the time was ripe, Aoba announced that the "Northern Jin Alliance", the scattered cultivation alliance in the north of the Jin Kingdom, was officially established, he was naturally the leader of the alliance, and Feng Buping was the deputy leader of the alliance, and after thinking about it again, Boss Han also joined the alliance with his own forces, so that the originally loose alliance suddenly became the fourth major force that could compete with the three major sects.
The forces of Banyue Mountain City did not suffer any losses in this battle, but they did not get as rich a reward as green leaves, but for the Bliss Sect and the Natural Sect, the biggest harvest was undoubtedly to take advantage of this incident to clean up the iron refining and Nangong Xiaoyao here.
Without a leader, the Iron Fist Gang and Zizitang will only be lambs to the slaughter, and it is not surprising that there will only be two overlords in Banyue Mountain City in the future: He Tianran and Pan Leju.
As for the three major sects, they suffered heavy losses in this competition, and many disciples did not dig out the secret realm, but died in the illusion under the dream spider - either they were drained of their souls by the dream spider and died, or they were killed in the battle with others.
Hu Sihai, the eldest disciple of the Xuanmen Sect, was killed by someone in the illusion; the eldest disciple of the Tianwu Sect was seriously injured, the end of the meridians and the dantian were also destroyed, and it was almost concluded that he could not practice, and another important disciple of the Tianwu Sect, Wan Fa, was captured by the dream spider in the illusion, and his divine consciousness was injured, and he almost became a wasted person; the most tragic was the Purple Immortal Sect, except for the senior brother Ye Erlan, the rest of the people all died unexpectedly, and they did not know that the people were murderers.
A big drama is over, and there is no winner except for Aoba and Ma Xie.
When everything calmed down, the eyes finally focused on this practitioner named "Ma Xie".
Who is he? Where did he come from? Why did he become the successor to the Flame of Hegemony? Who set it all up?
In the speculation of the cultivators, Ma Xie became a legend.
betrayed the Heavenly Martial Sect of the Master, confused the Stone City Lord into the secret realm, and then under the encirclement and suppression of several major forces, accepted the inheritance of the Domineering Flowing Fire, and finally defeated the cultivator of the eighth layer of the Qi Refining Realm to kill the ancestor with blood, and killed him until he fled!
The legend of the horse evil walked around the Jin Kingdom. Many people even described the appearance of Ma Xie in vivid colors: the chief of the man was a fierce god, his eyes were like fire, his fangs were turned up, and the most striking thing was the red hair, which was composed of tens of thousands of red poisonous snakes.
Not only did someone intentionally or unintentionally leak out a piece of news, this Ma Xie was just a cultivator at the fourth level of the Qi Refining Realm, and the reason why he was able to defeat the Blood Killing Ancestor was because he had just accepted the inheritance at that time, and with the help of the residual power of the previous master in the Hegemony Flowing Fire, then that power dissipated, and Ma Xie lost that magical power.
After the news spread, more cultivators joined the team to find Ma Xie, but most people didn't know what Ma Xie looked like, so they could only search for it randomly, but unfortunately they searched for nearly half a month, and they didn't find a single red-haired cultivator.
When Ma Quan left Ma Xie, Ma Xie's hair gradually returned to its original color, but for some reason it didn't get shorter.
Ma Xie cut his hair back short, changed his clothes, disguised himself a little, and continued to make his way to the south.
However, there are still people who will find out the whereabouts of Ma Xie, after all, the disciples of the Tianwu Sect all know the appearance of Ma Xie, and Ye Erlan and Jade Venerable have also seen Ma Xie, so these three parties have found Ma Xie's whereabouts several times, but they have not surrounded Ma Xie.
Gradually, Ma Xie and his entourage left the northern part of the Jin Kingdom and came to the central part of the Jin Kingdom.
The population here is gradually increasing, and there are cities and towns everywhere next to the main road, and there are many sects here, many of which are similar in strength to Tianwu Sect, and even a few sects are far more powerful than Tianwu Sect.
However, these sects are all subordinate sects of Xuanyangmen, and in the Jin Kingdom, especially in the central region, there is only one force among cultivators, and that is Xuanyangmen!
There are even two cities, both of which are the private property of Xuanyangmen.
Although it is known that the last fief of the Jin Kingdom was the stone city of the lord of Shicheng, which was the last iron plate of the Jin king's implementation of the county system. But the two cities occupied by Xuanyangmen—Wucheng and Chongcheng—were never on the list.
These two cities have been the private property of Xuanyangmen since ancient times, and even before the birth of the Jin Kingdom, they were occupied by Xuanyangmen.
On the map of the Jin Kingdom, only these two cities and a large piece of land in the middle are of a different color, and everyone knows that this is the territory of Xuanyangmen.
These places controlled by Xuanyangmen will not expand, but they will never allow the invasion of other forces, otherwise it will be regarded as a declaration of war against Xuanyangmen!
Therefore, this is not the land of the Jin Kingdom, and naturally it will not be another "fiefdom" of the Jin Kingdom.
The three of them ran all the way, and unconsciously came to this special area, near Chongcheng, the city under the command of Xuanyang Gate.
At this time, the three of them were exhausted, and the three Jade Venerables were in hot pursuit, and they had several conflicts, but they all escaped at the last moment.
It wasn't until they entered the realm of Chongcheng that the three Jade Venerables were no longer chasing after them, this was the territory of Xuanyang Gate, and they had to be careful.
So the three of them got a chance to breathe and hid on a small cliff.
At the bottom of this cliff there is a mountain village of less than 100 people, and all the people living in it are mortals, not even a single warrior.
The three of them decided to temporarily repair here, and it would be best if they could get rid of the Jade Venerable.
On this mountain cliff, mortals rarely come up, in order to prevent unsuspecting cultivators from breaking into this place, Ma Xie decided to set up a simple answer formation here, which was enough to confuse some low-level cultivators and martial artists to stray into this place.
In the past few days, Ma Xie has been out of his daily practice and has been studying the book "Yantianlu".
This book is an enlightenment book for formation mages, and it also records several basic formations, such as the Spirit Gathering Array and the Hidden Town.
Before entering the secret realm, Ma Xie had been trying to cultivate the formation, but he couldn't condense the aura into silk at that time, so he couldn't carve the most basic "formation pattern".
After Mr. Mo's special training and training in the secret realm, Ma Xie's ability to control the aura has been greatly strengthened, and after continuous attempts, Ma Xie can finally condense the spiritual silk as thick as a hair.
Ma Xie tried to manipulate the spiritual threads, intertwining them one by one, and then weaving a six-pointed star.
This is the most basic symbol among the many runes, and many array mages will choose a basic symbol as their "starting hand" at the earliest.
The so-called "starting hand" is the most basic idea of constructing a formation, and it can also be regarded as the "shape" of the formation.
Some formation mages prefer circles, others prefer squares, and Ma Xie chose a more special pattern: the six-pointed star.
This pattern does not have any special meaning, and it is not just that when Ma Xie first constructed this formation, he thought that he had seen this pattern when he was fighting with the Chixiao Divine Sword, so he used this pattern as the "starting hand" of his formation.
To this day, Ma Xie misses that battle very much—the battle with the Chixiao Excalibur.
Although Kong Anhai was holding the Chixiao Divine Sword, that battle was dominated by the Chixiao Divine Sword from beginning to end.
In the middle of the battle, Ma Xie felt the battle intent of the Chixiao Divine Sword, which was not only to reseal the battle intent of the Overlord Flowing Fire, but to have a head-on duel with the Overlord Flowing Fire, drawing a perfect end to the battle thousands of years ago.
Even Ma Xie felt that although the Overlord Flowing Fire did not control himself, it was indeed a battle between two weapons, and he was just a bystander.
This kind of experience is very wonderful, the frenzy and excitement when encountering an evenly matched opponent, the thrill of constantly improving oneself in the same level of duel, all deeply infected Ma Xie.
Although he doesn't like Ma Quan, Ma Xie knows that he has Ma Quan's blood after all, and he also longs for this kind of forgetful battle in his heart, and he is also a person who was born to fight!
Ma Xie looked at the overlord flowing fire in his hand, although this sword has a strange shape, but it is full of a strange sense of power, every arc, every edge and corner is designed for battle.
"Master, I've found my sword!" Ma Xie said to the starry sky, this sentence was for Mu Xunfeng, because this was the last "homework" that Mu Xunfeng assigned to him.
After that, Ma Xie moved his mind and collected the Tyranny Flowing Fire into his body. This is what he learned when he inherited the Hegemony Flowing Fire.
The Overlord Flowing Fire does not have a scabbard, and it cannot be carried on the body for a long time, and after the Overlord Flowing Fire acknowledges the master, it will parasitize in the master's body and nourish it with the master's spiritual temperature.
Ma Xie could feel the Tyranny Flame stored in his left arm, absorbing his aura little by little, repairing the damage caused by the previous war.
"What a lot to eat. Ma Xie sighed.
The cultivation of the formation has basically been completed, and Ma Xie can condense the runes of several formations, and now what he has to do is to fix these runes on the ground, and then set up a channel for the spiritual energy to operate, and lay the spiritual stones in the key places, so that the spiritual energy in the spiritual stones can run along the channel, and then activate the runes, and a formation will run like this.
It's a pity that the three of them don't have enough spirit stones, so Ma Xie decided to enter Chongcheng and sell some of his receipts in the secret realm.
If he really became a formation mage, then a large number of spirit stones would be essential, and a larger spatial ring would also be needed.
Ma Xie still has a few pure spirit baby bees on his body, he is going to sell this thing, and then see if he can find a suitable buyer and sell half of the beehive in his space ring, although Ma Xie doesn't know how much this thing is worth, but this thing belongs to the four of them, and he can't always be carried by himself.
