When we stopped to rest again, I endured the pain in my body. I didn't sit down to adjust my breathing. Instead, I reached out and grabbed the little zombie's arm. While panting, I said, "We can't go on like this. They have a lot of people. Sooner or later, we will be exhausted."
The little zombie still wore a sorrowful expression. He sat cross-legged on the ground and shook his head at me. "With our strength, we'll die if we turn back and fight them. We have no other choice but to run away."
I turned my head to look behind me. I couldn't see the silhouettes of the people from Mount Longhu, but I could vaguely sense their auras with my spiritual sense. I estimated that they were less than ten kilometers away from us.
With the Heavenly Master's speed, ten kilometers would only take a few minutes at most. In other words, we only had a few minutes to rest. Even if the black aura in my body was sufficient, it wouldn't be enough to replenish my magic power.
If we can't replenish our Shaman Qi, the distance we have to run will become shorter, and our next rest time will also be shorter. If this continues, it will only be a slow suicide. When they catch up to us in the end, we won't even have the ability to fight back.
I clenched my teeth. I couldn't go on like this. Even if I had to die, I had to find a way to fight against the Heavenly Masters.
As I thought about this, I took out the box that contained the Xuan Yuan Sword and gave it to the evil sacrificial spirit. Then, I asked him, "The power contained in this thing is extremely terrifying. However, I can't use it with my current cultivation. Can you see if you can use it to fight against the enemies?"
The Xuan Yuan Sword was extremely precious. Moreover, it was closely related to my identity. Although Nan Gong didn't specifically tell me, I knew that I couldn't easily show this sword to others. However, an external object wasn't as important as a person. As I was about to lose my life, I didn't care about anything else and took it out.
Seeing the Xuan Yuan Sword's box, the little zombie's expression suddenly changed. After I asked, he immediately asked, "Xuan Yuan Sword?
Why do you have the Xuan Yuan Sword? "
It wasn't the time to explain, and I didn't open my mouth to explain. I directly handed the sword box to him and hastily asked, "Can I use it?"
The little zombie didn't extend his hand to receive it. He just shook his head. "The Xuan Yuan Sword has great spirituality. How can an ordinary person use it?
I can't use it, so you should put it away. If those people see it later, I'm afraid they will have another reason to kill you. "
Hearing him say that, my heart instantly turned to ashes. Even my strongest weapon, the Xuanyuan Sword, couldn't do anything. What else could I do?
Fight to the death?
Only when there was a glimmer of hope could it be called fighting to the death. If there was no glimmer of hope, it could only be called throwing away one's life.
While I was in despair, the little zombie suddenly said, "I suddenly thought of a place. If we go there, we might be able to escape this calamity."
His words were like a clear spring that flowed into my body. I was instantly energized. I quickly asked him, "Where?"
The evil sacrificial spirit said, "From this corpse's memory, I know that he was born in a place with thick Yin energy. I cultivate Yin energy. Although I can only use a small part of my power, as long as there is enough Yin energy for me to absorb, I will be able to recover my cultivation base in one month. Even if I only have a few days, I am confident that I can restore my cultivation base to that of a Heavenly Master. At that time, those people who are chasing after us won't be a problem.
The only problem now is that this corpse ghost hasn't developed any spirituality yet. His memory is also very chaotic. I don't know where he was born. "
The place where the little zombie was born?
I know where he was born!
I hurried to tell the evil sacrificial spirit, "I know where he was born!
And I've been there before! "
The worried expression on the evil spirit's face eased a little. He nodded and said, "All right, take me there!
As long as we can hold on until we get there, I'll take care of the rest. "
After running for the whole night, I finally saw a ray of hope. I excitedly stood up and looked around. I suddenly remembered that I had been running for the whole night and didn't even know where I was. I also didn't know how far I was from the Corpse Yin Sect. Although the evil sacrificial spirit had thought of a way, it was hard to say whether it would work or not.
Fortunately, Fengshui Masters were very sensitive to geographical locations. After roughly looking around, I quickly recognized that this place was the junction of Henan, Shanxi, and Shaanxi provinces.
Yesterday, I was teleported from Kaifeng to a place several hundred li southwest. After that, the little zombie and I fled to the northwest, so it was normal for us to be here.
After understanding this, I became even happier. The Corpse Sect was in Shanxi Province, and it was in the southern part of Shanxi Province, which was very close to where I was at this time!
After making a rough estimation, I pointed to the northeast and told the little zombie, "That place is about ten kilometers northeast from us."
The little zombie's spirit was lifted. He urged me to immediately sit down and adjust my breathing. I wanted to recover as much as I could.
After seeing a glimmer of hope, I didn't want to die anymore. I quickly sat down and continued to adjust my breathing.
Around five minutes later, my spirit energy hadn't even recovered by half. The little zombie grabbed me again and continued to run like crazy. However, this time, we changed our direction and headed northeast.
This time, it was almost the same as before. At first, I almost completely relied on the little zombie to escape. Because of me, his speed was much slower than before. However, perhaps it was because we had changed our direction this time, but the Heavenly Master who was chasing us was left far behind. The next time we stopped to adjust our breathing, we had a longer time to rest.
Relying on this opportunity, the little zombie and I were able to take a breather. Finally, we managed to reach the foothills of Taihang Mountain.
The Corpse Sect was hidden in the depths of Taihang Mountain. The two of us had to use the eight hundred miles of Taihang Mountain to hide. We had to use the last wisp of energy in our bodies to reach the mountain area where the Corpse Sect was located.
Although I had made it, I had almost collapsed during the last part of the journey. If it weren't for the Xuan Yin Fluid that the red shadow had given me, I wouldn't have been able to endure it. Even so, I had used up all the power in my body during the last part of the journey. I had to use my life force to keep going. I had to hit my chest as hard as I could.
The evil sacrificial spirit was even worse off. Not only had he used up all the Yin Qi in the little zombie's body, but he had also used a secret technique to convert the little zombie's body into Yin Qi for his own use. That was how he had managed to hold on.
When I saw the exit of the secret passage that Yan Nantian and I had used to escape from the Corpse Sect, my body went soft. I couldn't endure it anymore and directly fell to the ground.
At this moment, I didn't even have the strength to open my mouth to breathe. My chest heaved up and down as I tried to take a few more breaths. However, I couldn't open my mouth.
The little zombie's situation was even worse than mine. He had to take care of me along the way. At this moment, he was also lying on the ground, completely unconscious. There was not a single part of his body that wasn't covered in scars left behind by the evil sacrificial spirit's secret technique.
I lay motionless on the ground for a few minutes. When I could move my arm, I clenched my teeth and punched myself in the chest. I spat out a mouthful of blood. My body regained some strength, but I still couldn't stand up.
I didn't want to stand up anymore. I crawled on all fours and opened the secret passage that Yan Nantian had left behind.
After the passage was opened, I had used up all of my energy. However, there was only one step left. I gritted my teeth and endured the dizziness in my head and the pain in my body. I crawled back and pulled the little zombie's body. At the same time, I took one step at a time to rest and move him into the cave.
