Blood Escape was the Mystical Power inherited from the Ancient Blood Spiritual Dragon, and it was the least used by Long Chen. However, this didn't mean that Blood Escape was not heaven-defying enough.
When Long Chen was still at the fourth level of the Heavenly River Tier, he could escape from the pursuit of a ninth level Earth Tier demonic beast by using Blood Escape. Now, in the eyes of the martial artists at the eighth level of the Heavenly River Tier, Long Chen's figure just appeared and then immediately disappeared.
A group of people looked at each other and exclaimed, "Where is he? Didn't someone appear just now? Why is he gone?"
"He couldn't have escaped, right?" one of them said.
"It's very possible. An expert that could make Lord Sword Demon rush in personally must be very terrifying. We couldn't have all hallucinated just now, so that guy must be a super expert, and he must have escaped."
This sentence stunned Long Chen.
"Let's go in and see what happened inside. That guy actually came out. Could it be that Lord Sword Demon is not his match?"
"Impossible, it must be because he escaped from Sword Demon's hands. We have to chase after him, but we can't all chase after him. You, you, you, you three stay here. The rest of you follow me and search nearby. Maybe he's not far away."
One of the people who seemed to be the leader said.
"Leader, should we send someone in to see what's going on inside?" one of the martial artists asked.
"That's right. You, and you, go in and see. If there's any situation, quickly order someone to come out and report."
"Yes."
Two martial artists accepted the order and entered Ni Yang's Fairyland. The others left three people to guard the entrance, while the others followed the leader and searched around Ni Yang City.
Just after a short period of time, an enormous coercion suddenly acted upon Ni Yang City, causing everyone within Ni Yang City to feel a jolt. No matter what they were doing at that moment, they all knelt on the ground one after another, and said in a clear voice, "We pay our respects to the Sword Sovereign."
Just as everyone finished talking, at this time, a warrior suddenly rushed out of the Ni Yang Immortal's Realm. His face was full of shock and panic. After he came out, he roared in grief and indignation, "Not good, not good, Lord Sword Demon has been killed, and the Heaven Stage Spiritual Herbs are all gone."
At that moment, it was the quietest moment in the city. His roar had practically spread throughout the entire Ni Yang City. Immediately, the entire Ni Yang City was shaken.
"What?!" A loud roar shook the informant to death, causing him to bleed from his seven apertures.
Everyone knew that the furious voice came from the highest existence in Cangyang Kingdom, the legendary Sword Emperor.
…
Using the Blood Escape Technique, Long Chen ran for a distance of ten miles. The last time he had used the Blood Escape Technique, the distance of ten miles had almost consumed all of Long Chen's Real Qi. But this time, the speed was even faster. Although Long Chen had more Real Qi, it still couldn't withstand the crazy consumption of the Blood Escape Technique.
At a distance of ten miles, Long Chen had already discovered Xiao Lang's position by relying on the Spirit Devouring Demon Pupil. He quickly stopped in front of Xiao Lang and shouted, "Xiao Lang, escape in this direction."
During the process of using the Blood Escape Technique, Long Chen had already felt a terrifying pressure coming from the direction of the Imperial City. This was the pressure of a Heavenly Completion Realm expert. It was a level that Long Chen couldn't touch at present, and it was enough to make him feel terrified. Although he had already pulled a distance of ten miles away, he still didn't dare to be negligent.
Xiao Lang wasn't stupid either. When Long Chen appeared, he immediately transformed into his battle form. He carried Long Chen on his back and crazily rushed towards the direction that Long Chen had pointed. This place was only ten miles away from Ni Yang City. Although the Sword Emperor didn't know which direction Long Chen was in, it was still not a safe place. Therefore, Long Chen was in a hurry to leave this place.
He was currently heading towards the south. At this time, the Real Qi in Long Chen's body had already been exhausted due to the use of the Blood Escape Technique. So, he hurriedly sat on the back of Xiao Lang to recover his Real Qi. Not long after he had moved, an angry roar came from the direction of Ni Yang City. That roar could be described as earth-shattering. Although he was separated by a distance of ten miles, Long Chen still felt frightened. If he hadn't escaped in time, he might have already died in the hands of the Sword Emperor.
"Fortunately, I listened to Little Xi's words and escaped in time." Long Chen heaved a sigh of relief in his heart.
Under the leadership of Xiao Lang, they quickly left Ni Yang City. Time gradually passed. Xiao Lang was running in the desolate and uninhabited wilderness. There wasn't anything that would affect his speed. After half a day had passed, Long Chen finally made Xiao Lang stop. At this time, they were nearly a thousand miles away from Ni Yang City. So, they basically didn't need to worry that the Sword Emperor would be able to find them here.
In the middle of this small forest, Long Chen sat on the ground and gasped for breath. Xiao Lang was also on the verge of collapsing from exhaustion. However, when he saw the rejoicing expression in Long Chen's eyes, he anxiously asked Lingxi. Only Lingxi was able to understand what he was saying.
Lingxi knew what had happened, so she told Xiao Lang everything that had happened in Ni Yang's Immortal's Realm. When Xiao Lang had digested this part of the story, they had finally recovered. Long Chen had also recovered his Real Qi in this half a day's time.
However, it had been really thrilling just now …
After he had finally recovered, Long Chen rested for a while and chatted with Lingxi for a while. Only then did Long Chen remember to check his harvest this time. It was a pity that he didn't obtain the Nine Heavens Celestial Fruit. However, with these three things, he could finally get some comfort.
"As the Sword Demon had said, the Nine Heavens Celestial Fruit is most likely in the Sword Emperor's possession. I am currently not his match, so it would be better not to fight him head-on for the time being. It seems that my strength is still not enough. If I want to take revenge, or even avenge Xiao Lang and kill the Sword Emperor, I can't be too ostentatious …"
Long Chen finally stabilized his state of mind after some careful consideration.
After hearing that Long Chen had killed one of his three greatest enemies, the Sword Demon, Xiao Lang was very happy. It was a pity that he was not the one who had done it. Otherwise, he would have been even happier.
At this time, Long Chen called out to Xiao Lang, then took out a jade box from his Cosmos Sack and placed it in front of Xiao Lang. He smiled and said, "Xiao Lang, you have worked hard just now. This is your reward. Take it and enjoy it. It is absolutely safe here."
As soon as the aura of the Eight Barren Fire Dragon Fruit was released, Xiao Lang already felt it. He was very sensitive to things of the fire attribute, let alone a Heaven Rank Eight Barren Fire Dragon Fruit. Immediately, his Sun Devouring Fiend Wolf's face revealed a very happy expression. For Xiao Lang, this Eight Barren Fire Dragon Fruit was definitely a super delicious meal.
Xiao Lang looked gratefully at Long Chen, then left with the Eight Barren Fire Dragon Fruit in his mouth. He needed to find a place nearby to refine it. When he reappeared, he should be a peak Earth Rank Nine Demonic Beast, an existence of the Earth Rank.
"The increase in Xiao Lang's strength will definitely be of great help to me. However, because of his identity, he can't follow me into Bi Yang Imperial City for now. The Sword Emperor is not in a hurry to kill. He's taking it one bite at a time. His next target is Lin Zichen."
Long Chen would never forget that three months ago, it was him who used the Sword Qi to force Lingxi to abandon the body of the Profound Sky Jade Lotus. At that time, Lin Zichen was proud and aloof. But now, Long Chen completely possessed the strength to fight against him. Returning to Bi Yang Imperial City.
"Believe me, I will give you a great surprise." Long Chen sneered in his heart.
"Chen, how will you deal with the Forbidden Crimson Lotus and the stone talisman?"
At this time, Lingxi asked anxiously. What she was actually looking forward to the most was the mysterious talisman.
"The Forbidden Crimson Lotus. I don't have a Heaven Rank Body Refining Combat Skill. Can I refine it?" Long Chen asked.
"You can naturally refine it. However, you lack a Heaven Rank Body Refining Combat Skill. The Forbidden Crimson Lotus will not be effective at all. It will only be stored in your body. So, it's better to wait for you to have a Heaven Rank Body Refining Combat Skill. Then, you can use it together. It will definitely be twice the result with half the effort." Lingxi said.
"Yes."
Long Chen nodded and then said, "In that case, let me take a look at the talisman now."
If this thing was used well, it would be the greatest harvest for Long Chen. However, last time, Long Chen only injected Qi into the body of the talisman. In just a few breaths, two days had passed. This time, Long Chen could only be careful.
At this time, he took out the stone talisman and put it in his hand. At this time, at this time, the originally illusory dragon shadow on the stone talisman had become clear.
"What is this thing? Even I can't see through it." Lingxi was a little nervous. She flew around the stone talisman, but she could not see anything.
"It's strange. There is no restriction at all. However, it is like a fog. I can't see anything." Lingxi tilted her head and said with a distressed expression.
Her frowning look was very delicious.
"Why don't I try to inject Qi into it again?" Long Chen asked tentatively.
"Aren't you afraid that a few years will pass?" Lingxi asked nervously.
A few years? Long Chen suddenly remembered that when the illusory dragon shadow in the sky had shone with divine light into Long Chen's eyes in the Ni Yang's Immortal Realm, Long Chen had felt as if a river had flowed rapidly beside him. At that time, he had been aging rapidly.
"Could it be that the flowing river is the flow of time? The flow of time?" Only then did Long Chen recall.
Then, he remembered that Lingxi had once said that among the ten ancient Ancestral Dragons, there was an Ancestral Dragon that could control time. Its nature-defying aspects even surpassed the Primordial Blood Spiritual Dragon.
Just as Long Chen was thinking, the Dragon Jade in his sea of consciousness suddenly moved. A strong suction force suddenly appeared on the Dragon Jade and acted on the stone talisman. Before Long Chen could react, the stone talisman in his hand had already been sucked into his chest. Then, it actually fused with it …
