"Walk!"
Ziyue smiled slightly. Sure enough, many plans can't keep up with changes. Chen Qing had plenty of information and his schemes were layered, but in the end, they were still ruined by this giant octopus.
At this point, they naturally wouldn't stop and let Chen Qing catch up, causing their group to get entangled with the giant octopus just like that guy!
Both Ziyue and Murong activated their full magical abilities, quickly creating distance to evade Chen Qing while simultaneously searching for the target Chen Qing desired.
However, at this moment, Murong had a slight doubt and asked curiously, "Even if we find the Heaven-Devouring Dragon Whale, then what?"
Even if they found it, they had no way to subdue the monster, and judging from the current situation, once found, the Heaven-Devouring Dragon Whale would most likely be eaten by this giant octopus.
Such a wonderful thing that can take away all the jade, if it's for the sake of an octopus, you have to admit, even Murong feels a pang of regret.
"Don't worry about that," Ziyue laughed. "These jade stones are good things, but no matter how good they are, they're useless if we don't have a chance to take them away. We're not Chen Qing, and we don't know how to use the Heaven-Devouring Dragon Whale. Since we don't know how to use it, we naturally can't let Chen Qing use it either. We'll just lure it over there. In the end, Chen Qing will naturally use his trump card to protect that monster that can only let him take the jade stones."
"I see." Murong sighed immediately, "What's wrong with your brains? How can you figure out Chen Qing's thoughts with so little information?"
From a distance, Chen Qing watched as the three fled without a fight, using their mental energy to probe their surroundings as they ran. Clearly, they had guessed what he was thinking. His face darkened instantly, and from a great distance, countless wind blades erupted, trying to slow down the three and pull them into the range of the Heavenly Ghost Octopus's attack.
Seeing this, Murong smiled and unleashed a wind blade attack without hesitation, almost exactly the same as Chen Qing's. The angle, direction, and power of the wind blade were identical, completely negating the thousands of wind blades Chen Qing had unleashed.
Moreover, it was extremely dramatic, without the slightest deviation. The shape and size of each wind blade were exactly the same as Chen Qing's, perfectly canceling out all of Chen Qing's attacks.
This made Chen Qing's face darken even more.
He could tell, of course, that the other person was mocking him!
Murong Yunji was a master of the Divine Wind Spell, completely different from Shen Shiyi. Her wind technique ability came from Shen Shiyi, so naturally she couldn't compare to the real Wind King.
"Stop being naughty!" Baiyu smacked Murong on the head. "Watch your movements, don't let that kid trick you!"
"Don't worry." Murong was full of confidence. Facing Chen Qing, a novice in the Divine Wind Spell, she was naturally very confident. If Ziyue hadn't wanted to extract secrets from Chen Qing, she would have already made a move to have Chen Qing swept back by her power.
How dare they use the Divine Wind Spell in front of her? They really don't take her seriously.
Chen Qing, Murong was leisurely and carefree, suddenly realized that he could never catch up with these two no matter what, and could only smile bitterly, "Seniors, how about we cooperate?"
"No cooperation!" Ziyue responded with a smile.
Having been led by the nose by Chen Qing these past few days, Ziyue, who was finally in a better mood and in a rare moment of joy, finally showed a smile she didn't usually wear.
"Do you really want to fight to the death?" Chen Qing asked sinisterly.
"The idea of 'fish die, net break' is mostly the idea of fools," Ziyue said calmly. "More often than not, fools will struggle and fail to destroy a tattered net."
"Seniors, are you really willing to let this monster out?" Chen Qing hurriedly said, "Seniors, you must have witnessed this guy's abilities, right? If this guy goes out, the world may perish!"
"So what?" Ziyue looked at Chen Qing with amusement. "Isn't all of this the result of Lord Chen? You're not trying to shift the blame onto us, are you?"
"Do the seniors really have to put so much pressure on the juniors?"
"So what if I force you?" Ziyue laughed.
"Then this junior will not stand on ceremony!" Chen Qing's blood and qi suddenly erupted, his whole body turning as red as a branding iron, and he charged forward, his speed more than three times faster than before.
This outburst did not surprise Ziyue at all; instead, a cold smile curled at the corner of her lips.
This guy... looks like that's about it!
The Blood-Burning Secret Art —a skill common to martial arts families—how could Ziyue not know it?
This is a technique that martial artists usually use when they are fighting desperately. Burning one's essence and blood can indeed boost one's abilities explosively in a short period of time, but it not only causes great damage to the body's foundation, but also consumes a lot of physical strength.
The opponent had been chased through more than a dozen spaces, and their stamina expenditure along the way was definitely no less than theirs. Did they really dare to use the Blood-Burning Secret Technique at this point?
Are they really planning to fight to the death?
Thinking of this, Ziyue was even a little disappointed. She had thought that with so much information and a mysterious inheritance, this guy would eventually pull out a card she hadn't expected, but this was all?
really
This guy isn't the King of Qin.
Having lost interest, Ziyue stopped arguing and her figure, glowing with a faint purple light, instantly created a distance of tens of thousands of feet. The speed of her retreat startled Murong Yunji. However, she was not idle either. After Chen Qing burned his essence blood, she knew she could not be entangled by him. She activated her Divine Wind Spell at full speed and retreated instantly at an absurd speed.
But Chen Qing, who had burned his life essence, found himself unable to catch up!
Ziyue coldly stared at Chen Qing in the distance. How could someone who had lived for so many years not know the principle that sorcerers should avoid close combat with warriors?
How could there not be a way to deal with it?
From the moment Chen Qing burned his life essence, this guy was no longer worth taking seriously; he'd run out of tricks and was nothing special!
Sure enough, in less than a quarter of an hour, Chen Qing's speed began to drop noticeably, and he even started to pant. The flush on his face also drained quickly. It was quite frustrating to be unable to catch up with the enemy despite unleashing his full power. It was like playing League of Legends and the Tryndamere had activated his five-second invincibility ultimate but was still being kited. That feeling was incredibly frustrating!
" Chen Qing." Ziyue's figure flickered continuously, like a fleeting phantom, and her voice came from all directions. "How about I make a suggestion? If you don't want to become nourishment for that giant octopus, then reveal all the information about your Dragon Palace, transfer the entire Jiangnan power to me, and teach me the Divine Path Style Technique. I can then form a spell with you and spare your life. What do you say?"
"Senior is truly ruthless!" Chen Qing said breathlessly, "At least leave a couple of things for the junior, right?"
"Three!" Ziyue held up three fingers.
"Senior. How much?"
"Two!"
By the time they said "two, "Ziyue's figure was already tens of thousands of feet away. Clearly, if Chen Qing didn't agree, she would really leave directly, and might even use a spell from a distance to make him rejoin the giant octopus behind him.
"Good senior, you're in charge!"
Upon hearing this, Ziyue smiled and immediately stopped in her tracks. She formed a hand seal with one hand, and a Blood Spell quickly appeared in her palm.
Clearly, they didn't intend to let Chen Qing waste time and wanted to use the Blood Spell to settle the matter directly!
The terms of the procedure were very simple and clear at a glance, so Chen Qing didn't even have an excuse to refute it for wasting time.
" Lord Chen, you'd better not try anything funny. I won't let you get this close to me a second time, especially not to someone as dangerous as you," Ziyue said with a smile.
"Once is enough!" Chen Qing smiled and instantly grabbed Ziyue's hands.
" Chen Qing!" Murong's expression changed instantly from a distance!
"What is Lord Chen doing?" Ziyue was not flustered at all, but instead amused, "You don't really think that you can take me down with your martial strength just because you've gotten close, do you?"
"This junior is certainly not so arrogant." Chen Qing's smile grew even gentler, " Lord Ziyue has lived for such a long time, she must have mastered various methods for dealing with martial artists. I believe that even if a powerful figure like the Eldest Princess or His Majesty were to get close to you, you would be able to escape unscathed!"
"If that's the case, then what is Lord Chen doing?"
"I just want Senior Ziyue to stay here!" Chen Qing's smile widened, but a sense of unease rose in Ziyue's heart!
Is he wrong?
Without hesitation, Ziyue activated the spell, intending to create distance. However, with a flash of purple light, the surrounding space distorted for a moment, but then vanished without a trace!
This is?
Ziyue suddenly looked at Chen Qing and realized that the two of them had been enveloped by a runic array.
Ziyue recognized it almost immediately; it was the Anti-Magic Array within the Azure Dragon Array!
However, compared to the one in Great Azure Mountain, it was incomparable in terms of scale and the sophistication of the magic array. It couldn't even stop her from reorganizing the spell. She could see that this rudimentary magic array could only control her for one or two breaths at most.
But Chen Qing wouldn't waste his time. What could he possibly want to do? What could he possibly do in such a short time?
Ziyue stared at her opponent. Although he might have the strength of Above First Rank martial artist, Ziyue was not afraid. Her Starlight Body had not been forcibly removed by the magic array. As long as it was still protecting her, no martial artist in the world could break through her defenses!
Many people knew this information, Ziyue didn't believe Chen Qing was unaware. But if that was the case, what was he trying to do?
Should we all be dragged into the battlefield of that giant octopus?
That doesn't make sense either. Although the monster is terrifying, its speed is its weakness. Ziyue is confident that even if she gets caught in the monster's attack range, she can escape. So it's not very meaningful.
" Ziyue, down below!!"
Murong suddenly shouted at her from not far away!
Ziyue was startled, looked down at the hair, and froze.
It was a gigantic maw that could almost swallow the heavens and the earth. At a glance, it looked as if the entire sky had turned into a giant mouth, encompassing not only her and Chen Qing, but also the monster that rushed in!
Heaven-Devouring Dragon Whale
Ziyue looked at Chen Qing's smiling face, which had become gentle.
Was this guy planning this from the beginning?
