As the sky dimmed, Zhao Lin opened the door and walked out of the wing.
The courtyard was silent, with only one servant standing guard outside.
"Where is your head?"
Zhao Lin really didn't get a good rest last night. He never dared to sleep too deeply in someone else's world.
"The master of the house is in the living room and said that if the immortal master wakes up, he can go see him."
The servant bent down and replied respectfully.
"Okay, take me there."
Zhao Lin felt slightly strange, was he waiting for him to say goodbye?
"How did you rest last night, little friend? Are you still used to living here?"
Walking into the living room, before Zhao Lin could speak, Li Chenglin stepped forward and asked enthusiastically.
"Very good! Thank you Master for your hospitality. I'm here to say goodbye."
Zhao Lin cupped his hands and said.
"Well, I won't keep you here."
Li Chenglin nodded and waved to the side, and immediately a servant came over carrying a wooden tray.
There was a money bag made of animal skin placed on the wooden tray.
"Here is a thousand spirit coins, a small gift, to express my gratitude."
Li Chenglin took the money bag and handed it to Zhao Lin.
"Palace Master Li is too polite."
"Yes, please accept it."
Zhao Lin declined a few words and then accepted.
Stepping out of the gate of Li Mansion, I secretly breathed a sigh of relief and walked quickly towards the mountain gate.
Sanshan County is different from Hanchi County. Because of its relationship with the Immortal Cultivation Family, there are many mortals, and it is built like a mortal state city.
The streets are wide, with people coming and going, and there are even people selling breakfast.
Zhao Lin had no intention of staying, so he walked out of the mountain gate, spread out his body skills and rushed towards Zhouyi.
After walking for several miles, seeing no one around, he took out the money bag presented by Li Chenglin.
When he opened it, he saw that there were ten spiritual coins worth one hundred dollars inside.
Zhao Lin took out the spirit coins and looked at them one by one, making sure that they had not been tampered with before putting them back.
Just as he was about to continue on his way, he suddenly smelled a faint aroma.
The aroma is fresh and slightly bitter.
"What is the taste?"
Zhao Lin grabbed the money bag, raised his nose and smelled it, and found that the fragrance was emanating from the top of the bag.
My heart suddenly sank.
Maybe it's just ordinary incense, but what if it's for tracking?
Looking around, he saw a patch of grass in front of him on the right. He threw the money bag in without hesitation and ran towards the left.
Zhouyi is only more than twenty miles away from the mountain gate, so it will be safe there.
Not long after, three monks walked over quickly.
The leader was a tall old man with a hooked nose, thin lips, and sharp eyes, followed by Tao Huang and Li Yuanzhi.
The three of them were only wearing ordinary clothes and had no family emblems on them.
"He threw the stuff away! The money inside wasn't touched either."
Li Yuanzhi picked up the money bag from the grass and said with surprise on his face.
"It's not simple, it's actually quite thoughtful."
Tao Huang narrowed his eyes and looked in the direction of Zhouyi, "Fortunately, Yuan Lie is ambushing us in front."
"Think you can escape now?"
The tall old man smiled coldly, "Follow me and remember to cover your face when you do it."
After saying that, he stood up, like a big bird, spiraling hundreds of feet into the sky, staring down.
Zhao Lin drove more than ten miles and came to a rolling mountain with sparse forests on both sides.
Rubbles, bricks, wooden boards are piled randomly on the mountain ridge... It looks like a broken wall, and it is vaguely visible that people once lived there.
On the top of the ridge stands a dilapidated archway with the words "Fengjinpu" written on it.
According to the monks on the airship when they arrived, Sanshan County was not big at first. It was not until a large number of Tianxing placer mines were discovered hundreds of years ago that it prospered.
The original Fangshi and Zhouyi were no longer sufficient, so they were demolished and rebuilt a little further away.
It seems that this should be the original Fangshi.
Zhao Lin calmed down and was about to cross the mountain when he suddenly became alert and the hair on his body stood up.
According to the ultrasound feedback, someone is approaching you at an extremely fast speed.
Not from the front, not from behind, but... overhead!
Zhao Lin looked up in shock and saw a figure rushing down from a height of several hundred feet, like a predatory eagle.
"Flying in the air is a foundation-building monk."
Zhao Lin felt cold in his heart and sweat was pouring down his face.
The other party's behavior was clearly directed at him.
Bandit cultivator?
impossible!
Sanshan County is not Qiuyang County, and there are many foundation-building monks. How could they let bandit cultivators do whatever they want at the door?
The faces of Li Chenglin and Tao Huang immediately flashed through Zhao Lin's mind, and he couldn't help but feel bitter. He couldn't understand why sending a letter could lead to disaster.
Just as he was thinking about it, three masked men rushed over quickly.
One of the figures was quite familiar, and Zhao Lin could recognize it even with his face covered: Tao Huang!
The three of them, one in front and two behind, made it clear that they wanted to attack from both front and back to block Zhao Lin.
Without saying a word, Zhao Lin took out the Hongyan Talisman and slapped it hard with his palm.
Facing the foundation-building monks, he had no chance of winning and could only hope that the other party would be wary of the Hongyan Talisman.
"Zheng!"
The Hongyan Talisman flashed red, let out a shrill scream, and turned into a stream of light that shot straight into the sky.
Flying to a height of tens of feet, it released thousands of silver lights and poured down to the ground.
"I am Zhao Lin from Hanchi County, and those who came to kill me are the Li family and Tao family from Sanshan County!"
Zhao Lin stood in the silver light, shouted loudly, took out the escape talisman from the lock bag and hid it in his cuffs.
The foundation-building old man frowned. He originally wanted to kill Zhao Lin with a spell before he could react.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Lin could detect his presence, react very quickly, and directly release the Hongyan Talisman.
"I stopped the flying talisman and you killed it!"
The foundation-building old man roared, opened his fingers, and shot out hundreds of light cyan light beams from his palms.
Each light pillar is more than thirty feet long, not straight, but with a long arc. Hundreds of light pillars form a cage, covering the Hongyan Talisman from a distance.
The dazzling light of the Hongyan Talisman was immediately blocked, and the whistle was also isolated.
call out!
As if the Hongyan Talisman had eyes, it avoided the blue light beam and flew towards Sanshan County.
The old man had a cold look on his face, and he ducked quickly, and the beam of light immediately grabbed the swan goose talisman like an octopus's tentacles.
At the same time, the other hand threw out a fan-shaped magic weapon and hit the wild goose talisman in the "cage" extremely quickly.
The swan goose talisman contains escape spells, which even the foundation-building monks cannot capture. The old foundation-building monk is obviously well prepared.
Zhao Lin's heart skipped a beat, knowing that he would be dead if the old man who built the foundation caught the wild goose talisman.
Seeing the three masked men flying towards me, my mind suddenly changed, and I turned around and headed north.
The three of them are all in the late stages of Qi refining, and they are also members of the family. It would be difficult to deal with just one of them, let alone three of them.
Since he can't fight, the only way is to escape to Feituo River.
With boats coming and going on the river, the enemy may not dare to pursue him in a big way, and he has just practiced waterbending, so he may still have a chance of survival.
When Tao Huang and others saw it, they immediately understood what Zhao Lin was thinking, and used the Light Body Technique and the Divine Movement Technique to outflank him from two directions.
The three people seemed to have reached a consensus and sacrificed their magic weapons at the same time.
Tao Huang's magic weapon is a flying hammer slightly larger than his fist. Li Yuanzhi's and Li Yuanlie's magic weapons are exactly the same, a black steel cone.
The three magic weapons were chasing behind Zhao Lin, and they only waited to enter the range of his spiritual consciousness before launching an attack.
Zhao Lin's heart sank. His attack range was only thirty feet. Faced with this situation, he could only be beaten passively and could not even fight back.
He climbed over a ridge of earth, jumped down, turned around and released a trap technique.
The sight of brothers Tao Huang and Li was blocked. Worried about being ambushed, they jumped to both sides.
When they landed on the ridge and saw the scene in front of them, they stopped in shock.
I saw hundreds of rapidly rotating cyan cyclones, stretching across a width of dozens of feet, blocking the way ahead.
With a mere third-level cultivation of Qi Refining, he can actually use the master-level trapping technique!
Li Yuanzhi and Li Yuanlie were trying to bypass the spell when Tao Huang shouted: "Wait a minute."
While speaking, he took out a talisman and patted it with his palm.
The talisman immediately released a cloud of yellow smoke, and the earth element spiritual energy gathered quickly, forming in the blink of an eye a thick earth mountain more than five feet high and three feet wide.
Mountain Crash Technique!
Tao Huang activated his magic power and drove Tushan directly into the cyclone array.
There was a loud roar, and the cyclone instantly collapsed, revealing a wide passage.
"What a good idea!"
Li Yuanlie praised him and took the lead and chased after him.
Zhao Lin ran as fast as he could in front, while simultaneously emitting ultrasonic waves to observe the movement behind him, and soon discovered that something was wrong.
Tao Huang and Li Yuanzhi were not as fast as him and were pulled further and further away. However, Li Yuanlie kept following behind him, running even faster than himself!
"Advanced Level Divine Movement Technique!"
Zhao Lin's heart sank, knowing that once he was caught up by this person, he would definitely be entangled, let alone whether he could fight him or not.
If he waits for the other two people to arrive, he will have no luck.
"No, we must kill the fastest one, otherwise it will be impossible to escape."
Thinking of this, Zhao Lin suddenly turned around and took out an escape talisman.
With a "bang" sound, the talisman suddenly exploded, releasing a large cloud of thick black smoke.
In an instant, an area of dozens of feet in radius was covered in pitch black like night.
Li Yuanlie was about to catch up with Zhao Lin, but he didn't expect that he would release the Escape Talisman, and he hesitated for a moment.
Deliberately go around, but this will inevitably widen the distance between the two parties.
Not far ahead was the Feituo River. With such a delay, Zhao Lin might escape into the river.
If someone passes by nearby, it will be difficult to take action.
Three people can make people run away, so how can they do business when they go back?
Thinking of this, Li Yuanlie recalled the magic weapon, released the spiritual energy shield to protect his body, and rushed into the black mist.
In his mind, Zhao Lin used the Escape Talisman just to buy time to escape, and he certainly did not dare to stay.
To take a step back, even if Zhao Lin dared to hide inside, he would still have the upper hand.
The concealment technique blocks sight and hearing, and limits spiritual consciousness. It has the same effect on both people.
But my cultivation level is higher, and the range that my spiritual consciousness can reach is wider. If I meet, I will find the other person first.
It's a pity that Zhao Lin not only didn't leave, but also had the ability of echolocation.
Zhao Lin couldn't help but feel overjoyed when he found out that Li Yuanlie had barged in.
He quietly approached it, picked up the iron ruler, and smashed it down with all his strength.
Li Yuanlie was rushing forward when he suddenly noticed something strange. He tried his best to explore with his spiritual consciousness, but he could only feel that something was hitting his head.
"Where are the people?"
As soon as the thought came up, there was a sound of cracking in my ears, and the spiritual energy shield shook violently, producing dozens of cracks.
Li Yuanlie was shocked and turned pale. No matter where Zhao Lin was, he shot out the steel awl and flew back to avoid it.
Zhao Lin swayed, came to Li Yuanlie's side, and struck down with another iron ruler.
With a "bang", the spiritual energy shield instantly disappeared without a trace.
Taking another step forward, the three Yin claws grabbed the head, the claws were filled with Yin Qi and the strength was extremely fierce.
Li Yuanlie was so frightened that he was out of his wits. He used all his strength to twist and dodge.
It's a pity that he only practiced some ordinary fists and kicks, so he couldn't escape Zhao Lin's fatal claw.
puff.
Five fingers inserted into the skull.
Li Yuanlie shook a little, and his vision blurred for a while.
Zhao Lin didn't wait for him to fall to the ground, and kicked him out of the black mist, turned around and continued running.
Tao Huang and Li Yuanzhi chased closer and saw a person flying out of the black mist. They subconsciously thought it was Zhao Lin and each released their magic weapons.
"Stop, it's Yuan Lie!"
Li Yuanzhi recognized his cousin and immediately shouted loudly.
Tao Huang was startled and quickly put away the magic weapon.
Li Yuan rushed forward and caught Li Yuanlie's body, only to find that the man had already lost his breath. There were five blood holes on his head, and blood was gurgling out.
"this……"
Tao Huang knew Li Yuanlie's ability, but he didn't expect that he would be gone in the blink of an eye. He couldn't help but feel a shiver in his heart and reassessed Zhao Lin's strength.
"Cousin!"
Li Yuanzhi's eyes were red and he shouted at Heiwu: "I want you to pay with blood."
Tao Huang and Li Yuanzhi were eager to catch Zhao Lin, but they did not dare to rush into the black mist to avoid making the same mistake as Li Yuanlie.
The two bypassed the black fog and saw Zhao Lin running wildly, fifty or sixty feet away from them.
Tao Huang had just seen Zhao Lin's speed, and knew that if he continued to pursue him, the two sides would only get further and further apart. With a focused look, he released his magical flying hammer and headed straight for Zhao Lin's back.
Li Yuanzhi had the same thought. He pinched the magic formula with his hand, pointed a little parallel, and shot out a white ball of light from his fingertips.
"Thunder Blade Technique!"
The ball of light was only the size of a dragon's eye, with a few faint blue arcs wrapped around it. It made a "cracking" sound when it rubbed against the air in flight.
The magic weapon and the spell came at the same time. Zhao Lin suddenly turned around and saw the white ball of light, and an unpleasant feeling suddenly arose in his heart.
The white ball of light seems to be a thunder spell!
He couldn't block the attacks of magic weapons and spells at the same time, so he could only use rock armor to protect his body.
A yellow light flashed in front of him, turning into a rock shield more than half a foot thick.
Zhao Lin released defensive spells, but still felt that it was not safe, so he used martial arts tortoise shell power to protect his body.
boom!
The white ball of light hit the rock armor and exploded with a loud bang, making a deafening sound.
The extremely strong rock armor instantly fell apart and scattered into a cloud of yellow smoke.
Zhao Lin felt numb all over his body, as if he had been struck by lightning, and his body flew into the air.
Tao Huang saw that the guard armor was broken, and immediately controlled the flying hammer to catch up with Zhao Lin, hitting him hard on the ribs on one side.
Zhao Lin used his tortoise shell strength to barely resist, endured the pain, and continued running towards Feituo River.
"Hurry up and chase him, don't let him get away."
Li Yuanzhi released the Thunder Blade Technique, his face turned pale, and as soon as he took a step, his body shook twice, it was obvious that he had exhausted too much energy.
"Don't worry, you can't run away!"
When Tao Huang saw that Zhao Lin was seriously injured, he was overjoyed and ran after him.
