After following for a while, Xu Wen suddenly felt something was wrong. At a stall not far away, there was an old man haggling with the shop owner.
Everything looked normal, but the other party had a cultivation level in the late stages of Qi refining.
Although the opponent tried his best to suppress the fluctuations in his own cultivation, the Qinghuang Gong's sensitivity was very strong, and Xu Wen was still aware of the opponent's true cultivation.
The standards of this ghost market are not high, and there are very few late-stage Qi refining monks.
However, this person also deliberately suppressed his cultivation and bargained for a low-grade magic weapon that he had no use at all. Everything seemed very abnormal.
With a dark feeling in his heart, Xu Wen couldn't help but be more vigilant.
Not long after, another late-stage Qi-refining monk appeared. When leaving the ghost market, he met another late-stage Qi-refining monk.
With a different expression, Xu Wen left the ghost market and headed in another direction.
After passing through several neighborhoods, with no one around him, he immediately activated the Thousand Illusion Masks and Invisible Clothes, and quietly headed toward the city gate.
Qingfeng City is not closed, and there are no barriers to entry and exit.
At the end of the last expedition, Xiao Yuanshan made it clear that members of the expedition team were not allowed to leave Qingmaple City and marked their identity tokens.
But as an outer disciple, Xu Wen was obviously not within this restriction, and no one marked his identity token.
After leaving the north gate, Xu Wen quickly turned east, found a small hill to sit down, and waited quietly.
In the distance, the tall Qingfeng City wall is vaguely visible.
After a long time, there was a sudden sway somewhere on the city wall, as if someone had crossed over the wall.
After crossing the city wall and waving behind him, Zhang Jiuting immediately activated a magical talisman and ran wildly into the wilderness.
The news about the Foundation Establishment Pill suddenly spread, catching him off guard for a moment.
Although it hasn't been specifically pointed at him yet, he is already a scornful person, and everyone who walks by him will make him nervous for a while.
I feel particularly bad these days. I always feel like someone is watching me.
Heartbroken, he decided to leave Qingfeng City and flee to the nearest big sect, Da Chi Lin.
Qingfeng City, the closest fairy city in Dachilin, is also thousands of kilometers away, and it has to pass through many dangerous places in the Hengjue Mountains.
Normally, he would never take the risk, but in order to keep this Foundation Establishment Pill, he had no choice but to fight.
Moreover, he also had some encounters in the Xishan ruins, and it was not a random act.
The identity token was marked and would be discovered if he tried to pass through the city wall, but as a native of Qingfeng City, he naturally had his own way.
He had an uncle who was a guard in Qingfeng City and was on duty tonight. He chose a weak spot in the city wall formation and asked him to climb out.
As for the token of Qingfeng City, it was a burden the moment he decided to escape, and he threw it at home.
If the formation was fully activated, it would be impossible for him to pass through the formation without an identity token. However, it was not war time, and the city defense formation only had limited functions enabled.
His uncle had guarded the city wall for decades and was well aware of the flaws in the battle strategy, so he easily helped him leave.
After using up a magic talisman, he was already several miles away from Qingfeng City and deep into the wasteland outside the city.
But I don't know why, but I still felt unsafe. I took out the second magical talisman and was about to activate it when a scream suddenly came from somewhere beside me.
Shocked, he immediately took out a shield and a knife.
"Where did this wild thief come from? We took a fancy to this guy first!"
A big man in yellow clothes suddenly appeared, holding a huge mace, and shouted with shock and anger:
"Second brother, how are you? Get out of here if you're still alive!"
There was no sound in the deep darkness. The man in yellow was frightened and angry. He waved his hands to the left and right and said in a deep voice:
"Third and fourth, let's go see what's going on with the second kid!"
"Be careful, I'll take this kid down!"
While talking, two people quickly emerged from the darkness and rushed in the direction of the screams. The man in yellow rushed straight to Zhang Jiuting, his eyes full of greed and murderous intent.
The third and fourth children strode forward, and were soon attracted by the smell of blood, and came to a pile of bushes.
Carefully parting the bushes, a headless corpse fell there, the blood from the neck was still steaming. It was the second oldest member of their small gang.
"Second brother!"
The fourth child's eyes suddenly turned red with anxiety, he yelled and stepped forward to check.
The third child was much more steady. He protected his chest with a short axe. He looked around and shouted in a low voice:
"Be careful, the other party is definitely still nearby..."
The next moment, the top of Lao Er's body suddenly shook slightly, as if a piece of transparent glass was moving.
A green long sword suddenly shot out from the void and pierced the short axe.
Although the third child was vigilant, he never expected that the other party was right in front of him and still resting on the second child's body.
He yelled angrily and surged with all his magic power, trying to block the sword.
He was still confident. Although the opponent attacked first, his magic weapon was always protected at the key part of his chest, forcing the opponent to fight hard.
His short ax is thick and heavy and can definitely block the opponent's blow.
As long as he blocks this attack, he and Lao Si can definitely stabilize the situation by joining forces.
In just a few moves, the boss can deal with Zhang Jiuting, and then he can slow down and kill the bastard who sneaked up on them.
His mind was running extremely fast, and he was already thinking about how to stabilize the situation and be both offensive and defensive.
The green long sword pierced through the thick short axe, like a broken bamboo, and penetrated directly into his throat. With a slight shake, Lao San's head suddenly rose into the sky.
The flying head tried its best to open its eyes wide and look at the magic weapon still in its hand.
He didn't understand what happened to his magical weapon, how it could become worse than paper and be pierced by the opponent's sword.
"Third brother!"
Looking at his companion's head that suddenly detached from his body, the fourth child yelled.
His anger suddenly turned into panic, and he activated a few talismans at random, and punched them out without thinking about the direction. He turned around and ran away.
It was only a few breaths away, so he would be able to meet up with the boss soon, but for some reason, he ran for hundreds of steps and still didn't see the boss.
Looking around again, nothing had changed. He actually kept spinning in circles.
"come out!"
With an angry shout, he slashed around with his knife to hide the fear and hesitation in his heart.
The next moment, green flames must have suddenly shot out from the void and landed on Lao Si's head.
The seemingly inconspicuous flame had unimaginable heat. In just one blow, Lao Si's head was reduced to ashes.
The space shook for a while, the invisibility effect of the invisible cloak was put away, and Xu Wen appeared, panting heavily.
Stopping above the corpse of the second child and directly killing the third child is very risky. If it fails, it will turn into a head-on confrontation and besieged by the two.
Fortunately, virtuality and reality are the best tactics of war. Although the two of them were alert, they never expected that their opponent would be so bold and still stop in place, just above the corpse.
However, the invisibility effect of the invisible clothes in the static state is astonishing, and with the bonus of the tracking array, he finally succeeded with one blow.
With a slight shake, the blood rolled down from the green scale sword with only the blade, without any stain on the sword.
There is only one Blue Scale Sword that has not been gathered in the last section. It is already very powerful and can kill most first-level magic weapons instantly.
However, Xu Wen's consumption of continuously activating the Green Scale Sword and Green Core Flame was very high, especially when he had to activate the Invisible Cloak and the Mysterious Formation at the same time.
But there is nothing that can be done about it. The opponent is very powerful, and the battle cannot be resolved quickly without doing this.
Zhang Jiuting is far from the boss's opponent, but he won't last long.
