Chapter 675: Chapter 668 Roll
Coming over to where Ye Qingqing of the Bloodthirsty Sect was, Chen Hai was just casually taking a look.
Seeing her seemingly busy and quite happy about it, he lingered for a while before leaving.
After returning to Black Water Immortal Mountain, he first moved the Black Water Myriad Spirit Pool to the Black Water Immortal Mansion, close to the entrance.
Should Ye Qingqing arrange for people to come over from the kneeling near the stele at the bottom of the mountain to receive the inheritance,
they would step onto the Immortal Mountain and enter the true Black Water Cave Mansion, not walking far before they would reach the current location of the Black Water Myriad Spirit Pool.
Of course, Chen Hai also notified each of his own disciples.
As for accepting those who were fortunate enough to gain the Black Water True Technique inheritance as disciples, Ye Fangxian and Zhang Tianci only casually agreed. They seemed not too interested in this.
Only the nominal disciple Wu Daniu showed a strong interest in taking disciples.
To better complete the task Chen Hai had given him, he actually opened up a cave mansion not far from the Black Water Myriad Spirit Pool.
Then, he withdrew to the cave mansion, continuing to spin silk cocoons and cultivate in peace.
After arranging these matters, Chen Hai returned to the Cultivation Hall, took out the Mongolian Skin Grassman and other things, amused himself a little by cursing Demon King Chili, and then once again entered into cultivation.
Black Water Immortal Mountain, southwest direction, more than a hundred miles away.
The Flying Boat soared through the sky, gliding across the heavens.
“Quick, faster!”
“We’ve been fleeing for so long, we’ve shaken off the others, but only Zuo Yunxiao that guy is like a lingering spirit, relentlessly pursuing us from behind.”
“Deacon Huang and Deacon Lin are not even at the True Immortal and True Demon levels, even if they gave up their lives, they couldn’t hold back Zuo Yunxiao for long.”
“Deacon Gui, Deacon Fang, you are more familiar with this branch of the Bloodthirsty Sect in this area.”
“How much longer until we can enter their territory? Do you have an accurate answer?”
Yang Shaoqing’s face had turned pale, not a hint of blood left in it as he looked toward Gui Wuya and Fang Qingshan, inquiring.
Though fast, piloting the Flying Boat across the sky required a lot of energy, not just a small amount.
Having fled for so long, the pills they had for replenishing mana were already used up.
While they took turns controlling the Flying Boat, without pills to replenish mana, the brief time they had was simply not sufficient for meditation and recovery.
Especially now, in their attempt to fend off Zuo Yunxiao, many on the boat were exhausted of their energies. Apart from Yang Shaoqing himself, only Gui Wuya and Fang Qingshan were left. Just piloting the Flying Boat was almost draining the three of them of all their strength.
“Young Sect Master, our current position should already be within the territory occupied by this branch of the Bloodthirsty Sect.”
“Their sect gate is about a hundred miles away from here.”
“The overall strength of this Bloodthirsty Sect branch definitely cannot compare to our main lineage overseas, but behind them, there’s the support of an Earth Immortal.”
“Over the years, that Earth Immortal should have successfully formed a Domain.”
“We don’t need to flee all the way to the Bloodthirsty Sect branch’s gate. As long as we approach the vicinity and enter the coverage of that Earth Immortal’s Domain, we could be temporarily safe.”
“After all, although Zuo Yunxiao is powerful, without the support of a Domain, he is certainly no match for that Earth Immortal within their own territory.”
Resting his palm on the metallic sphere, which was the control center of the Flying Boat, Gui Wuya spoke up opportunely.
These few sentences alone made him slightly distracted.
He was already at the end of his tether, with scant mana left in him when he suddenly spewed out a mouthful of fresh blood, completely depleting the last bit of his mana. He felt weak and limp all over, plopping down on the ground as he started to gasp for air with big heaving breaths.
“Old Gui, take a break for now, let me handle the Flying Boat,” Chen Hai said.
Due to this sudden turn of events, the Flying Boat soaring through the sky jerked violently as it ran out of power.
If it weren’t for the lingering momentum that kept it moving forward, the entire Flying Boat could have just nosedived straight down—a possibility that was not out of the question.
Fortunately, Fang Qingshan, who was sitting cross-legged and regulating his breathing on the side, acted promptly. As soon as Gui Wuya collapsed to the ground, he sprang into action.
Placing his hand on the metallic sphere, he began to frantically output mana, stabilizing the Flying Boat beneath his feet and propelling it forward once again.
In terms of speed, this Flying Boat racing at full throttle across the sky was only marginally slower than the Earth Immortal ranked pursuer, Zuo Yunxiao. But it was many times faster than the fleeing speed of Yang Shaoqing, Gui Wuya, and the others.
To put it bluntly, without this Flying Boat at their feet, they probably would have been caught by Zuo Yunxiao and the rest long ago, falling into their hands. Then where would they have found the chance to escape into the territory of West Barbarian Mountain?
“Yang Shaoqing, stop and meet your death!”
“The followers at your side have almost all been wiped out, leaving only two or three small fry.”
“Run! Where can you possibly escape to…”
Though he had not yet come into view, Zuo Yunxiao’s furious roaring could already be clearly heard by Yang Shaoqing, Gui Wuya, and the others.
It appeared that the two deacons who had previously ambushed Zuo Yunxiao to buy time for Yang Shaoqing had already met with their demise at the hands of Zuo Yunxiao.
“He’s caught up again so soon?”
“We are not too far now from the branch of the Bloodthirsty Sect. Deacon Fang, put all your strength into controlling the Flying Boat and hold nothing back.”
“Deacon Gui just said that if we can successfully make it to the Domain of that Earth Immortal of the Bloodthirsty Sect’s branch, then we are temporarily out of danger.”
Yang Shaoqing, who was also nearly at the end of his tether, changed his complexion and sprang up from the ground, swiftly moving beside Fang Qingshan. He reached out and started to channel mana into the metallic sphere, assisting Fang Qingshan in steering the Flying Boat.
…
In the Black Water Immortal Mountain, within the Cultivation Hall at the mountain’s peak.
A thunderous roar resounded from afar, abruptly rousing Chen Hai, who had only recently immersed himself in cultivation.
“Where is Sect Master Ye of the Bloodthirsty Sect’s branch? I am Yang Shaoqing, the Young Sect Master from the main lineage of the Bloodthirsty Sect overseas.”
“While out on training, my company and I were pursued by enemies. Will you not come to our rescue now? What are you waiting for?”
“If you can help me escape from this chase, there will be considerable benefits for you.”
“Even if you wish to complete your lineage, it’s not something that can’t be discussed…”
By the sound of it, the person roaring was still about several tens of miles away from Black Water Immortal Mountain, and they were precisely within the Domain covered by Chen Hai as an Earth Immortal.
“Main lineage of the Bloodthirsty Sect from overseas? What the hell is that?”
“And Young Sect Master Yang Shaoqing? By the tone of his words, I can tell that he’s a complete fool.”
“Chased by people and yet he expects my wife to come to his rescue? I’ll rescue your mother!”
Chen Hai’s expression darkened as he heard these words.
In the next instant, his figure flickered and vanished from sight.
Standing on a cliff near the southwest atop the summit, Chen Hai looked out into the distance.
“Scram!” Having locked onto the Flying Boat of Yang Shaoqing and the others, he let out a soft command and, with a casual swipe of his hand, he sent a slap hurtling toward them from afar.
