One benefit of He Pingsheng using the Heaven's Pinnacle Lifespan Conversion Method to raise his cultivation to Golden Immortal was that he could flee faster.
Previously, Immortal King Celestial Pleiades had intercepted him in just a few breaths.
Now he could no longer do that!
Immortal King Celestial Pleiades could only turn into a streak of light, compressing and folding space through spatial means, and trail behind He Pingsheng.
"Hehehe..." As he pursued He Pingsheng, he chuckled and said, "He Pingsheng... there's no use running!"
"You must have used some secret method to break through to the Golden Immortal Stage, haven't you?"
"It's useless..."
"I'm telling you, that secret method will soon stop working!"
"Once it wears off, you'll still die!"
"I'm still willing to give you a chance. As long as you hand over the treasure, I can take you in as a core true disciple. From then on, our cause and effect and fortune will be linked!"
"What do you say?"
Immortal King Celestial Pleiades patiently coaxed him to surrender as he pursued him.
But He Pingsheng ignored him completely.
The secret method wearing off?
That wouldn't happen for another four hours.
After about half an incense stick's worth of time, he reached the sect where Ming Riyue was.
From afar, he could already see the sect's rough outline!
"Junior Sister... save me..."
He Pingsheng roared, swerving sharply to the right instead of charging straight toward the sect.
He was afraid!
Afraid that one slap from that bastard Celestial Pleiades would reduce the entire sect to ashes.
So He Pingsheng skimmed past the edge of the sect.
Soon, Ming Riyue came chasing out as well.
Seeing Ming Riyue, He Pingsheng breathed a sigh of relief and stopped in the void.
*I couldn't beat you alone just now, but
