The water surges and rolls up muddy sand.

Li Yan used Profound Water Escape to shuttle rapidly in the Tuojiang River.

Boom! Water splashed up.

But it was Li Yan who came to the river and broke out of the water.

After he landed, his whole body Martial Power exploded, the soil under his feet exploded, and he rose into the air, like a bird flying through the dense forest.

The waning moon in the sky illuminated the river, and the canopy of trees in the forest was dense. The only glimmer of light was blocked, making the forest pitch black.

Of course, none of this can stop Li Yan.

Olfactory Mystical Power, making him unhindered in the dark.

Jumping on the tree trunks, running through the forest.

There was a figure vaguely ahead, and the speed was equally astonishing.

It is "Ghost Painted Face".

Li Yan relies on his strong body and control.

This "Ghost Painted Face" is a master who became famous many years ago. Logically speaking, he is already quite old. Even if he reaches Transformed Strength, his vitality and blood are already weak and his stamina is insufficient, so he cannot escape the pursuit of Li Yan.

But it used a special movement technique.

The wide black robe spreads out like a bat at night, leaping and gliding at the same time. The movement is like a ghost, and it is actually faster than Li Yan.

Moreover, the two sides always maintained a distance of hundreds of meters.

Li Yan and Soul Hooking Chain are simply out of reach.

But if you use armored horses, the time it takes to stop casting the spell is enough for the opponent to run away without a trace.

"Ghost Painted Face" is tempting yourself!

Li Yan chased for a while and immediately became alert.

But now, he couldn't stop.

The other party has obtained his hair and blood, which are the necessary media for casting spells.

There must be some conjuration masters nearby to help.

Once it is obtained, it will immediately become passive.

Thinking of this, Li Yan didn't care about anything else and directly tore open the oilcloth around his waist and took out the wrapped Flintlock Firearm.

Boom!

When you see that figure again, shoot directly.

The fire roared, the smoke disappeared, and the silence of the night was broken.

Wow!

The birds flew away in fright and the animals fled.

The dark and quiet jungle is actually full of life.

The powerful roar echoed in the dense forest and valleys.

The "Ghost Painted Face" in front suddenly lost its balance, but when it was about to land, another Leap of the Falcon came, kicked the tree trunk hard, and flew out again.

Li Yan This shot did not hit, but only tore his black robe.

Although it missed, the "Ghost Painted Face" magic weapon's robe was shattered, and it could only rely on its own strength to slow down in the end.

And the distance between the two sides is getting closer and closer.

Whoosh!

But at this moment, Li Yan suddenly stopped, hooked its feet on the tree trunk, spun in the air, and hid behind the giant tree.

Boom! Boom!

There were also two fires in the distance.

Like thunder, the trees as thick as a bucket suddenly broke.

Li Yan suddenly jumped out and hid behind a boulder on a hillside. His face was gloomy and he looked up at the hillside two hundred meters away.

He could smell that there were a dozen people hiding there.

Although they are ordinary people, they all hold Divine Firearm.

It's King of Shu's Musketeers!

I secretly saw this secret power of Shu King Residence in Dragon Spring Post and Li Yan, but I didn't expect to encounter it so quickly.

King of Shu actually sent these people here.

If you are so rich, what kind of treasures can you have without?

"Wish-Fulfilling Pearl" is taken too seriously.

Could it be possible that there is a hidden secret...

Although it was strange, Li Yan didn't want to think too much about it.

This sudden power interrupted all his plans, and the enemy obtained the spell medium. He was already at a disadvantage!

Whoosh!

"Ghost Painted Face" jumped up, tore off his tattered black robe immediately after landing, and threw out a small cloth bag.

A dry palm held the cloth bag in his hand.

It is Pu'an Temple, the Dharma Master of Shuzhong, Qin Wanpei.

This Old Taoist has already set up a temporary altar on the mountain, lit incense and candles, offered Five Offerings, and placed a small black coffin in the middle.

Next to the coffin, a straw man was placed.

"Fellow Daoist is really good at it!"

Old Taoist opened the cloth bag, looked at the hair and the blood-stained white handkerchief inside, and couldn't help but sigh in admiration.

It's not easy to get this thing.

Although Li Yan is a junior, Martial Arts knows all the techniques. No one in the room dares to say that he can completely suppress him.

Especially since the opponent is good at water escape and will escape if he is not careful.

And Celestial Decree, which is the most taboo for them.

Only "Ghost Painted Face", a veteran with rich combat experience, can successfully retrieve the things.

Even though Qin Wanpei is well-informed, he can't help but praise him.

"Fellow Daoist, you're welcome."

"Ghost Painted Face" still looked indifferent, "Without further delay, I also ask fellow Daoist to cast the spell as soon as possible to avoid any setbacks."

After saying that, he looked aside and said, "Open fire and cause nuisance. Don't let that kid have the opportunity to summon the underworld soldiers."

Next to it is the Shu King Residence Musket Team.

They were not sorcerers. The night was dark and they could not see their target.

But behind them, stood Jin Cuilian.

I saw her fingers clasping her fingers, her eyes burning, somewhat similar to a cat's. Even at night, they were shining with a faint green light.

"Over there!"

"Fire!"

With the finger of Jin Cuilian, the Musketeers immediately pulled the trigger.

Boom boom!

There were two loud noises again, and gravel scattered on the hillside.

Shu King Residence's musketry team is well-trained, and they have obviously put a lot of thought into the use of New Style Firearm.

They worked in groups of two and took turns firing.

As Jin Cuilian's fingers move, they don't stop.

New-Style Gunpowder was so powerful that the hillside roared continuously and earth and gravel were splashed everywhere. It was as if it was covered by artillery fire and it soon became pitted.

Jin Cuilian felt trembling in his heart.

She knows many side techniques and has average kung fu qualifications, but she has reached Peak of Hidden Strength, and she has a quick and vicious mind, which is why she reached this position.

Originally, I didn't think much of this musketry team, but seeing such power, I couldn't help but feel fear in my heart.

At least she herself, in this situation, could only wait to die.

Qin Wanpei also looked solemn, but he did not forget what he was supposed to do. He fluttered his hands and stuffed the cloth bag into the belly of the straw man.

Knead the formula Entering the Taboo and write the name Li Yan.

Then, Pacing the Gang and Stepping the Dipper, Peach Wood Sword in the right hand, and Soul Calming Bell in the left hand, murmured incessantly and chanted the spell.

Ring ring ring!

Soul Calming Bell shakes and circles above the straw man.

Three circles to the left, three circles to the right.

The leader of the musketeers did not participate in the attack. Facing Jin Cuilian's awed gaze, he felt no trace of pride in his heart.

He knew that the Musketeers still had many weaknesses.

Just like the current situation, without Jin Cuilian's help and guidance, they would be like blind men, fearing that they would not know even if a warlock touched their backs.

No wonder, Prince said that muskets cannot completely overturn the situation.

With the cooperation of the Warlock, the power becomes even more powerful.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at Qin Wanpei who was doing it.

"Ghost Painted Face" saw his gaze and introduced in a low voice, "This is Daoist Qin's unique skill: Soul Loss Curse. Created by the Pu'an mantra and the secret method of Witch Doctor from Shu."

"Ringing the bell attracts people's souls. Ten sticks of incense next to the straw man represent Three Souls Seven Spirits. If three souls are lost, seven souls are lost, and then placed in the black coffin, the kid's soul can be captured."

"Suppressed by gunfire, even if only one soul is lost, the other party will not be able to summon the Yin soldiers, and they can only be slaughtered by us."

He spoke in detail, and it seemed that the previous unpleasantness had completely disappeared.

Although the leader of the musketeers was a soldier, he was not a fool. When he saw "Ghost Painted Face" handing over the ladder, he nodded and said, "The secret method of Xuanmen is really eye-opening."

"I speak outright. If I have offended you in any way, I hope you will forgive me."

"There."

The tone of "Ghost Painted Face" also softened.

It seems like he is trying to please, but actually there is a flash of murderous intent in his eyes...

Boom!

Gunshots roared and gravel flew everywhere.

Li Yan Martial Power exploded under his feet, lowered his body, and at the moment when the boulder he was hiding in was about to shatter, he jumped out and changed direction to hide.

Although he was suppressed, he remained calm, hiding and thinking about countermeasures.

The current situation is very unfavorable to him.

Even if you face those masters at the same time, you won't be so embarrassed.

These old guys are really rich in experience.

His combat range is more suitable for short-range attacks. Now that he is suppressed here, although he will not be hit, he has no ability to fight back.

How to break the situation...

While he was thinking, he suddenly heard a sound coming from his ears.

Ring ring ring!

It seemed like someone was ringing a bell in my ear.

This ringtone has a strange power. After hearing it, it makes people feel sleepy, their brains are heavy, and their chests are filled with boredom and nausea.

It's a spell!

Li Yan knew that the other party had already begun to cast a spell.

"Dragon Snake Plate" does have a certain protective effect, preventing the opponent from catching the breath and avoiding many spells.

But if someone gets the hair and blood, the spell will be cast according to the medium, even if "Wish-Fulfilling Pearl" is there, it can't stop it.

Without any hesitation, Li Yan used Great Luo Dharma Body immediately.

In an instant, all discomfort disappeared completely.

The spell damages Divine Soul, and Great Luo Dharma Body can be recovered naturally.

But the root cause has not been eliminated, and the curse is still going on.

Soon, the ringtone rang in Li Yan's ears again, and his mind became dizzy, so he could only use Great Luo Dharma Body to repair it continuously.

Although the damage was not serious, and Great Luo Dharma Body's strength had already been improved, the continuous repairs finally caused a crack to appear on Great Luo Dharma Body's head.

If this continues, sooner or later a life will be lost!

On the other side, Qin Wanpei was also sweating profusely.

He chanted incantations and kept ringing the bell.

Seeing that a stick of incense has been extinguished.

But before he could take the next step, the incense that was about to go out started to rise again and was rekindled.

Weird!

Qin Wanpei's eyes almost popped out.

He has been practicing Buddhism for most of his life,

This is the first time I've seen this happen.

Seeing "Ghost Painted Face" next to him, he also frowned and said, "Fellow Daoist Qin, can you do it? We don't have much time."

Qin Wanpei also feels embarrassed.

He quickly picked up a bowl of water on the altar, drank a few sips, held it in his mouth, and sprayed it on the altar.

In an instant, Yin Wind was everywhere.

In the strong wind, Old Taoist's beard and hair were flying, he waved Peach Wood Sword, bit his fingertips, and drew a blood mark on the wooden sword. He moved the sword's blade horizontally and shot the straw man Li Yan three times in a row.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Three Incense Sticks, goes out almost at the same time.

Li Yan, who was below, was also blinded and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Great Luo Dharma Body repaired it in time. When the musket was fired here, he jumped and changed direction.

On the top of the mountain, Old Taoist Qin Wanpei was breathing heavily.

Seeing the Three Incense Sticks extinguished, I was secretly proud of myself.

Fortunately, he still had two hands left.

"Ghost Painted Face" risked his life and death to get the spell medium. If he couldn't do it himself, he would not be able to hold his head up in the future.

But not long after he was proud, his face turned stiff.

The Three Incense Sticks that was extinguished suddenly started to emit smoke at the same time.

"This..."

Qin Wanpei almost vomited blood and said in desperation, "This kid must have some protective treasures on him!"

Unfortunately, other people's faces were gloomy and they were too lazy to pay attention to him.

And below, Li Yan also felt a surge of anger rising in his heart.

Those people on the mountain are all masters, but they hide behind the musketeers. It's like a dog biting a hedgehog, unable to bite them.

Damn it, these Old Ghost are here to cheat and attack without any sense of martial ethics!

They are all famous people for a long time, why are they so cautious?

Suddenly, Li Yan flashed in Spiritual Light's mind, and he guessed the reason.

He had already used up his Celestial Decree and didn't think about it at all.

But these Old Ghost don't know.

The reason why he acted like this and used firepower to suppress the interference was obviously because he was afraid that he would use Celestial Decree to summon the Yin soldiers.

Thinking of this, Li Yan immediately said loudly, "Qing Jia! There is a black sky above, a black earth below. There is no light in the black sky, and there is no door in the black earth..."

The shouts of incantations resounded throughout the mountains and fields.

"Not good!"

Everyone on the mountain was also shocked.

But before they even started, Jin Cuilian was dumbfounded. He looked at the departing figure below and exclaimed, "This kid ran away!"

"Ghost Painted Face" suddenly understood something.

Although he has rich experience in the world, at this moment, his face was full of anger, "This boy, Celestial Decree has been used up long ago. Thanks to us being so cautious, all our work was in vain."

Other people's faces don't look good either.

I bet they are planning this for the devil to see.

Qin Wanpei was happy and said, "That's all. If I continue to cast the spell, the boy will be disturbed even if he has a treasure to protect him. You two fellow Daoists, go ahead and kill him directly."

"Ghost Painted Face" Without saying a word, he rushed out.

Jin Cuilian followed closely behind.

Without Celestial Decree, with the skills of the two of them, there is no need to worry at all.

The leader of the Musketeers also frowned, raised his hand and ordered, "Stop, pack it up, don't waste the magazine."

He was also a little annoyed.

The fire was suppressed just now, and the magazine was wasted.

Although Shu King Residence secretly controlled several mineral veins and had no worries about gunpowder, the magazines were heavy and they were limited in what they could carry.

If they are all used up, the Musketeers will become toothless tigers.

The leader of the Musketeers was annoyed and couldn't help but look at Old Taoist who was busy doing what he was doing and snorted coldly.

These charlatans are really unreliable...

This time, it was considered a shift in attack and defense.

Just now Li Yan was chasing "Ghost Painted Face".

But now, it has become "Ghost Painted Face" and Jin Cuilian, jointly chasing the escaped Li Yan.

"Quick, don't let him run to the river!"

"Ghost Painted Face" was very fast, turning his head and shouting angrily.

Seeing Li Yan disappear into the dense forest, Jin Cuilian didn't waste any time. He took out a black cat tail from his arms, chanted the mantra, and waved his hand.

Phew~

Yin Wind Suddenly, there were a pair of cat footprints on the ground in the distance.

It is the technique of Cat Ghost.

Cat Ghost is invisible and faster.

Jin Cuilian said in a deep voice, "Don't worry, he can't run away!"

The two sped up and chased, fearing that Li Yan would run to the river and escape using the water escape technique.

But what they didn't notice was that the aura tracked by Cat Ghost in the distance was actually a Chuling Paper Figure, flying close to the ground.

After they left, Li Yan was also covered in mist and walked out of the darkness of the dense forest, looking murderous intent towards the top of the mountain.

Then, the body quickly disappeared.
