Let Su Mu collect the spirit flame first, and then deal with this guy after she has refined it.
Having made up her mind, Yu Guyue took a deep breath, a strange pink glint flashing in her eyes.
After the Four-Armed Strength Ape met Yu Guyue's gaze, its eyes instantly turned bloodshot, and a dense, violent aura surged from its body, crushing many of the mountains below.
Seeing that her Divine Ability power had taken effect, Yu Guyue turned and fled.
Seeing this, the Four-Armed Strength Ape followed without hesitation.
After waiting for a while and seeing that the other party had disappeared, Su Mu applied Profound Yin Talisman to himself and hurriedly ran into the cave.
The cave passage was extremely wide, several meters high, and very spacious and bright, but it had a peculiar smell that was truly unpleasant.
Su Mu quickly entered through the passage and soon arrived at the pool in the depths.
What sent a chill down Su Mu's spine was that there were quite a few withered bones on the edge of the pool, as if they had been gnawed on.
Su Mu steadied himself and looked towards the pool.
A jade branch, seemingly almost completely gone, is topped with a flame. As the flame burns, various exotic flowers constantly transform, creating a dazzling and extraordinary sight.
The spirit flame is milky white in color and looks harmless, but in reality, if Foundation Establishment cultivator were to come into contact with it, they would instantly perish.
If Core Formation Cultivator were more decisive, they might be able to save their life.
The Jade Spirit Flame is ranked among the top fifty of the rare flames, and it feeds on spirit jade.
The conditions for its birth are extremely difficult, and it also requires a large spiritual jade mine to feed on. If it is not fed by a large spiritual jade mine after its birth, it will disappear directly from the world.
Su Mu glanced at some information about the Jade Spirit Flame, but his hands moved swiftly, following Yu Guyue's instructions to put away the Jade Spirit Flame.
Just as Su Mu activated the Jade Spirit Flame, the Four-Armed Strength Ape in the distance immediately sensed something, and its originally scarlet eyes instantly returned to normal.
"Roar!"
The Four-Armed Strength Ape roared, and a rolling sound wave immediately spread from all directions.
A sense of unease rose in Su Mu's heart. Seeing that the Jade Spirit Flame had been put away, he quickly turned around and was about to run out of the cave.
However, at that moment, Su Mu suddenly felt everything go dark.
A miniature version of Four-Armed Strength Ape suddenly appeared in front of him.
Su Mu's breath hitched slightly. How could there be the other party's offspring among them?
The small, Four-Armed Strength Ape, its Divine Ability, glared at Su Mu and roared, then swung its four arms directly at Su Mu.
Su Mu broke out in a cold sweat. He hadn't even noticed that his Profound Yin Talisman had been burned away by the Jade Spirit Flame, allowing the other party to see him directly.
The Fallen Star Sword on the Dao Lotus instantly appeared around them, enveloping Su Mu. A point of starlight flashed in front of the Four-Armed Strength Ape, and the next moment Su Mu was already outside the cave entrance.
"Roar!!"
The Four-Armed Strength Ape, who was entangled with Yu Guyue, rushed back at this moment, only casually dealing with Yu Guyue's attacks.
When it saw a person flying away in the distance, enveloped in starlight, Jade Spirit Flame in the cave was nowhere to be seen, it roared in fury.
This funeral feast was meant for his son!
As Lingyan has grown to its current state, it has absorbed an entire large spirit jade mine, which contains an enormous amount of Spiritual Power.
Once his child's strength reaches a certain level, he can begin refining the essence. After absorbing it, his child's strength will definitely increase dramatically.
Unexpectedly, it was stolen from him. The Four-Armed Strength Ape roared repeatedly, ready to rush forward and kill the thief.
Yu Guyue's expression darkened, and all nine of her Nine-Tails spread out, enveloping her opponent.
The Four-Armed Strength Ape swung a small mountain at the Nine-Tails, but the Nine-Tails fox remained completely still.
"You should leave now; I'm blocking your way here."
Yu Guyue sent a telepathic message to Su Mu, urging Su Mu to leave quickly, as she estimated she couldn't hold out for much longer.
"Go after that person!"
The Four-Armed Strength Ape also panicked and roared, ordering its children to chase after Su Mu.
The little ape went berserk after hearing the sound.
He crouched down and ran quickly, his speed not slowing down at all.
After hearing Yu Guyue's telepathic message, Su Mu, who was already preparing to unleash the Dao Lotus, quickly steered his flying sword away upon seeing this scene.
Taking out the second Xuan Profound Yin Talisman, Su Mu patted it on his body, and his entire being, along with the starlight, vanished.
The four-armed pursuer, seeing Su Mu disappear, paused for a moment before roaring and continuing the chase.
It didn't know where Su Mu had gone; it just felt that Su Mu was right ahead, and it wanted to continue the chase.
At this moment, Su Mu had almost no Spiritual Power left, and he secretly lamented his predicament.
He took out the elixir and fed it to his mouth. The little bit of Spiritual Power he regained was not even in the same league as the Spiritual Power he lost.
Looking at the Dao Lotus in his Divine Sense, and then at the four-armed creature that was clearly no longer visible but was still relentlessly pursuing him, Su Mu hesitated.
The opponent's strength is only at the Foundation Establishment Late Stage; directly consuming Dao Lotus to deal with such a thing would be a huge waste.
If that's the case, it would have been better to try using the Dao Lotus to kill that Nascent Soul earlier.
This little guy will naturally be dealt with by Yu Guyue.
Seeing that his Spiritual Power was about to run out, Su Mu took a deep breath, spotted a grove of trees below, and hid inside.
Now, let's see if we can use the Profound Yin Talisman to evade their pursuit. If all else fails, Su Mu will have no choice but to summon the Dao Lotus.
Su Mu hid in a large tree, and after a moment, Xiao Sibi ran across the canopy, making the whole forest rustle.
Hiding in the woods, Su Mu breathed a sigh of relief as he sensed the other person quickly disappearing into the distance, and immediately began to move to a different position.
I don't know what's going on with this guy. I've turned several corners already, how come he's still chasing after me?
But at this moment, there's no way I can stay here any longer; I need to find another place.
Taking advantage of his invisibility, Su Mu quickly ran towards a river in the distance.
He had seen a river in the distance and wondered if he could try to escape using Water Escape.
Su Mu hadn't rushed into the water earlier mainly because the other party was chasing too closely; they could still sense him turning corners, which made Su Mu feel...
If I were to rush directly into the water, and the other party knew this, I probably wouldn't have any other way to escape.
Su Mu carefully walked downstream along the river.
Meanwhile, the little four-armed creature had somehow returned and was patrolling along the route Su Mu had just escaped, roaring angrily as it did so.
Seeing this from afar, Su Mu breathed a sigh of relief. After he stopped Sword Flight, the other party had no idea where he was going!
Judging from the looks of it, it must have been their earlier Sword Flight that gave them away.
Su Mu was overjoyed and, taking advantage of the fact that the other party hadn't noticed him, quickly left.
