Xue Jun is actually not afraid of death, but if he dies before rescuing his mother, then such a death would be too useless and meaningless. This is what Xue Jun doesn't want to see.
Therefore, the blood horse has now transformed from a prey into a hunter, and is approaching the first prey.
As three energy bullets were fired, a member of the escort immediately fell to the ground, and the whole process was completed in one go.
In the following time, Xue Jun took care of the remaining four members of the escort team one after another.
And these five members of the escort team have all turned into nourishment for the phantom formation in a short period of time, replenishing the much-needed energy for the phantom formation.
"Come down and it's your turn!"
Xuejun has locked Xuepu's position through perception.
Previously, he deliberately walked around Xuepu in order to eliminate five members of the escort team first.
But now that I have no worries, I can give it a try with Xue Pu.
However, Xue Pu has now reached three-quarters of the entire illusory maze through the clues provided by the intelligence.
Because Xuejun had to eliminate hidden dangers before, the distance between him and Xuepu was already a bit far away, and there were many stone pillars between them. It was currently impossible for Xuejun to directly attack Xuepu.
If Xuejun accidentally shoots an energy bullet at a stone pillar, the stone pillar will reflect the attack because it is engraved with phantom runes. It will be fine if it does not hurt Xuejun. If it in turn hurts Xuejun himself, then the gain will not be worth the loss. .
After much thought, Xue Jun decided to close the distance between himself and Xue Pu first, and then look for opportunities to carry out a sneak attack, trying to kill Xue Pu in the illusionary formation.
…
Xue Pu is very depressed now. He has been moving forward according to the instructions of the intelligence.
However, due to his limited vision, he took the wrong route several times and even almost hit a stone pillar. If he did hit it, the suction power of the phantom runes would be enough for him to drink a pot.
But what made him most uneasy was that he always felt like there was a pair of eyes staring at him, and his life was always under threat.
Xue Pu was not sure whether this was an illusion brought to him by the illusory formation, or whether there was something really staring at him.
At this time, Xue Pu was mentally exhausted. Although he had taken Juehuan Pills, the illusion array could still cause him to occasionally hallucinate. If he hadn't held on, he would have been dragged into the illusion and couldn't extricate himself.
But Xue Pu still endured the discomfort in his brain and continued to move forward quickly.
Because he knew that only by leaving this illusory formation quickly could he reduce the threat rate of unknown things to him. He didn't want to die here without any reason.
Even if he fails to complete the Baron's mission in the end, he will definitely be punished, but at least he won't die.
Ever since Xue Pu entered the phantom formation, he had begun to lose confidence in his heart. Even if he had this level of cultivation, what would it mean in the phantom formation?
"Hurry up! Hurry up!" Xue Pu muttered silently and began to speed up.
Xuejun was already speechless.
"Does this blood belong to monkeys? Why are you running so fast!"
At Xuejun's current speed, even if Xuepu sometimes takes the wrong route, it is still very difficult to catch up with him.
"It seems we can only let him get hurt first!"
Xuejun felt that Xuepu would definitely be unable to come back and attack him in his current state. Therefore, as long as there was a suitable angle, Xuejun was ready to start shooting at Xuepu.
After a short period of time passed, Xue Jun finally found a suitable angle and gap, aimed at Xue Pu and fired.
Sound is isolated within the illusory maze, so Xue Pu cannot hear the sound of Xue Jun's shooting at all.
However, Xue Pu is a strong man at the peak of the fourth level of combat power level after all, so he can still give early warning when a sense of crisis is coming.
At the critical moment, Xue Pu quickly moved his body half a step to the side, and luckily avoided the vital point.
Although Xue Pu had already reacted as quickly as possible, the energy bullet still hit his right arm, and blood immediately flowed down, dripping on the ground and disappearing.
"It must be that little bastard!"
After Xue Pu saw the wound, he immediately thought of the boulder outside the cave.
"But why can he still attack me in the phantom formation? He can withstand the power of this phantom formation?"
An irritable mood enveloped Xue Pu, and he couldn't figure out why Xue Jun could move freely in the illusion formation.
"There must be something weird about that little bastard. It seems that the only way to get the answer is to catch him."
Xue Pu thought as he began to walk closer to the stone pillar. At present, he could only continue to move forward with the help of the stone pillar's cover.
"How cunning!"
Xue Jun was originally very happy to see that he had hit Xue Pu. Although he failed to hit the vital point, as long as he could hit the first shot, he would naturally be able to hit the second shot.
But Xue Jun didn't expect Xue Pu to be so cunning, so he didn't dare to continue shooting now.
"Let's see how long you can hide. I don't believe I can find a gap to shoot you again."
Xuejun is actually not very sure about shooting now. After all, he can't aim and shoot directly with his eyes.
If you rely solely on perception to lock in, the short gaps when some blood generals appear are not suitable opportunities for blood horses to take action.
Xue Jun could only resist the urge to take action now and continue to pursue Xue Pu.
As we get to the second half of the phantom maze, there are more stone pillars and the terrain becomes more complex.
Because Xuejun has the ability to sense the path, he always follows the correct route, which directly leads to the distance between him and Xuepu gradually getting closer.
When Xue Pu arrived at the 180-meter mark of the illusion formation, Xuejun had also reached the 170-meter mark.
And there were only two corners left between them.
Although there are only two corners, Xuejun still cannot directly attack Xuepu, so he can only continue to wait for the opportunity to come.
And this opportunity finally came when Xue Pu reached 190 meters.
Because the Illusion Array is nearing its end, the number of stone pillars has significantly decreased.
The distance between Xuejun and Xuepu has now been reduced to eight meters. Using the barrier-breaking pupil, Xuejun can already see Xuepu's back.
Xuejun knew that the opportunity was rare. If Xuepu was allowed to leave the illusory formation and enter the fog, it was unknown whether there would be such an opportunity in the future.
"Hmph! Let's see if you die this time!"
Xue Jun immediately aimed at Xue Pu's back and fired five shots in a row. He did not dare to fire more. If a bullet hit the stone pillar, he would be the unlucky one. Even if these five shots failed to hit Xue Pu, Xue Jun would not be able to hit Xue Pu. It also ensures that they cannot hit the stone pillars.
"Ah! Xuejun, you are going to die badly!" Xuepu screamed, but unfortunately the sound could not reach Xuejun's ears.
Xue Pu also instinctively evaded this time, but he only dodged two shots and failed to dodge three more shots.
Although these three shots did not hit Xue Pu's vital points, they were still painful and made Xue Pu sweat profusely, and more blood flowed out.
"If this continues like this, even if I'm not beaten to death by Xuejun, I'm sure he'll fall to the ground unconscious due to excessive bleeding. Then won't he still be dead?"
Xue Pu was so cruel: "Do I, the second steward of Baron City, have to die in such a miserable way at the hands of this little bastard?"
But it was useless to think about it now. Therefore, Xue Pu could only speed up his speed, dragging his injured body and rush forward, because according to the intelligence, he was not far from the exit.
If he could get out, even if he was seriously injured, he should still be able to deal with this little bastard like Xue Jun. After all, he was a peak fourth-level expert.
But how could Xuejun give up pursuing him?
At this time, Xuejun was following closely behind, looking for an opportunity to shoot him again!
Just as they were chasing and escaping, something changed in the fog in front of the illusion formation.
I saw that the fog that had remained static was now spreading in the direction of the illusory maze.
Before Xue Pu and Xue Jun could react, the mist had already swallowed them up and was continuing to expand outwards.
Such a scene also startled Xue Ming, who was standing outside the illusion formation.
Originally, he was waiting for news about Xue Pu, and was fully on guard for Xue Jun to escape from the illusion formation.
But this sudden change left Xue Ming at a loss.
However, when he saw that the fog was still expanding outward, he turned around and ran out without caring about the safety of Xue Pu and the others.
"General Manager Xue Pu, I hope you can come out alive! Otherwise, I don't know how to explain it to the baron, hey!" Xue Ming turned around and muttered to the illusion formation.
But when he saw that the fog was spreading faster, he fled as fast as he could.
Compared with being blamed by the baron, his own life is more important!
…
There was a vast expanse of white in front of Xuejun's eyes, and his senses could not detect it at all. Even if he used the Barrier-Breaking Eye, all he saw was still white.
Before Xuejun had time to think about what was going on, a suction force came from the depths of the white mist.
The Blood Horse was unable to dodge at all, and was directly sucked into the depths of the white mist by this suction force.
When he stabilized his figure, he was already out of the range of the white mist.
"here it is?"
At this time, Xue Jun felt as if he was in a mysterious space. There were still layers of white mist behind him, but in front of him was pitch black.
Although Xuejun feels grounded, he still feels that he is not standing on a solid body.
"Welcome to my space... No living thing has come here for a long time!" An old voice suddenly sounded.
As the sound sounded, the darkness in front of Xuejun's eyes was instantly replaced by blue.
Under the blue light, Xue Jun discovered that Xue Pu was standing ten meters to his left.
Before Xuejun could react, Xuejun's spherical body was already attacking him, shouting, "Watch if I don't tear you little bastard into pieces!"
Xue Pu's speed was so fast that Xue Jun had no time to shoot at him.
When Xue Jun was desperate, Xue Pu was like a fly hitting the glass, and was instantly bounced back.
Xue Jun was also completely confused by this scene.
