Amid the mountain wilds, Lu Ye rode Amber in a bedraggled flight. Several Spirit Talismans exploded behind him, Spiritual Power surging as the spells sealed within them were unleashed, leaving him in a miserable state.
After an entire day of clashes, the cultivators besieging him had grown wiser. Whenever they met him, they greeted him with Spirit Talismans first.
Though Spirit Talismans were expensive, low-level cultivators could still afford them if they gritted their teeth. Most carried one or two as life-saving trump cards.
Now, they were using them without regard for cost, which truly gave Lu Ye a headache. Had he not repeatedly activated the Defense Spirit Pattern to block them, he and Amber would have long since been unable to hold on.
Even so, both man and tiger bore many injuries.
It was not merely Spirit Talismans. The cultivators of that unknown faction had also sent Monster Beasts after him. Few cultivators possessed Spirit Beasts, because Monster Beasts were difficult to tame and could easily turn on their masters if something went wrong.
Lu Ye fled ahead while five or six cultivators riding different Spirit Beasts rumbled after him. Though those Spirit Beasts were nowhere near as magnificent as Amber and could not match its speed, obstacles kept appearing in Lu Ye's path, severely hindering his breakout. The slightest delay would see him caught at once.
Several times, Lu Ye had nearly been trapped completely. Only with great difficulty had he carved open a gap and continued fleeing.
After all this entanglement, Lu Ye discovered a problem: he could not keep circling around. The more he circled, the more enemies he encountered. Traveling in a straight line, on the other hand, brought him fewer enemies.
He did not know that Han Zheyue was guiding the Tai Luo Sect
