Chapter 296


– Demon Lady
Not long after Qiu Jin’er left, riding on a cloud, a few pan Aos descended from the skies. As soon as they landed, they rushed towards the place where the Lei Zhe Celestial Dragon appeared and they started searching for clues through the smell.
Then, another ten or more strong experts had arrived, they all headed towards the valley.

Such strong thunder power… The dragon footprint is so huge!

They were all shocked by the traces left behind, and when they stood in the dragon’s footprint, their hairs rose, and their clothes stuck firmly to their skin because of the static force.
Compared to the huge dragon footprint, these Qi Practitioners seemed tiny!
Their speed was slower than Zhong Yue’s, and so they had to request aid from the few Xiao Mang Atman Qi Practitioners to track him down.
But they did not expect the battle to be over upon their arrival.

So many have been killed!


These mutilated corpses….


Such incredible thunder power. They must have triggered the lightning zone in the upper layer of the skies, which attracted the Lei Zhe Celestial Dragon to unleash a heavy attack.


No Zhong Yue’s body?

The findings greatly shook them. If Zhong Yue’s body could not be found, it could only mean that he was still alive! This made them shiver as a strike from Lei Zhe Celestial Dragon could easily kill thirty or even more Inner Core level Qi Practitioners, yet it failed to kill Zhong Yue!
In no time, a Xiao Mang Celestial Race Qi Practitioner managed to trace everything to the place where Qiu Jin’er treated Zhong Yue’s wounds, and he shouted,
Look, Zhong Yue’s blood! Judging by the amount of the blood stains here, he must have been heavily injured!

A Zhong Li Celestial Race Inner Core Qi Practitioner scrutinized the bloodstains, and he said,
His injuries must have been sufficient to render him a cripple! We must act now, catch him before he can recover! Junior martial brothers from the Xiao Mang Celestial Race, we can only rely on you guys to track him down!

The few Xiao Mang Celestial Race’s Qi Practitioners nodded, and they started tracing Qiu Jin’er through the scent that had yet to disappear completely.
The other Qi Practitioners looked at each other, and they all flew into the sky, followed closely behind the back of the few Pan Aos. Not long later, a large oasis surrounded by lush green bushes entered their sights.

This is….

In the air, an Inner Core Qi Practitioner looked at the lush green oasis, and his expression instantly changed. He shouted,
Junior martial brother from the Xiao Mang Celestial Race, get out from the oasis right away!

Before he could even finish saying what he wanted to say, every blade of grass grew up to three feet tall. They then flew into the air and surrounded the few Xiao Mang Celestial Race’s Qi Practitioners, trapping them in a grass ball.
Then, countless swords made from grass rampaged all over in the grass ball and just when the Inner Core level Qi Practitioner in the sky was about to do something, the grass swords fell onto the ground and quickly faded away.
The grass swords left nothing behind, and the trapped Qi Practitioners were nowhere to be seen. What was left behind was just bloodstains!

They’ve been minced into dust….

The Inner Core level Qi Practitioners trembled as he looked at the bloodstains and he murmured,
Terrifying Wood Sword Qi, realistic grasses, these are things only a Wood Innate Spirit Body could do.

Another Qi Practitioner by his side said with a severe expression,
We’ve been paying too much attention to this Zhong Yue, forgetting that there’s this Qiu Tan Clan girl with him. This girl managed to get into the top hundred of the Warrior Board; her strength shouldn’t be any weaker than Xia Chusheng and the others.


That aside, now that the Xiao Mang Celestial Race’s people are dead, how are we going to locate Zhong Yue and Qiu Jin’er?


How much does the Zhong Li Celestial Race know about this Innate Wood Spirit Body?
asked someone among them who was from the Zhong Li Celestial Race.
To his question, A Zhong Li Celestial Race’s member took out a totem pillar and through that, he contacted the elders from his clan. A moment later, he shook his head as he said,
We only know that her name is Qiu Jin’er, a member from Qiu Tan Clan, one of the top ten clans in the human’s Great Wilderness. She’s always had a feeble constitution. Her legs turned to wood because of the excessive Wood Qi in her body, and she is forced to travel in a wheelchair. However, she has insights into the 【Sword Seedling Art】from the【Great Boundless Sword Qi】, seemingly having received the Swords Gate’s headmaster’s heritage.

Everyone frowned upon hearing the news as it was of little use to them.

But there is still some useful information in it, at least we know that her legs are crippled. This would place her at a great disadvantage in close quarters combat situations. Without being able to travel normally, she is much slower which means she will not be able to travel far enough from our reach. We can still catch up with her and exploit her disadvantage!

After a few moments, more Qi Practitioners arrived, and with the earlier batch of Qi Practitioners. They searched around everywhere, but to their dismay, they found nothing at all.
More and more Qi Practitioners from the Zhong Li Celestial Race arrived, each of them activated the totem pillars located all over the South Barren, spreading the portrait of Zhong Yue and Qiu Jin’er to the people of their race.
Half a day later, through the totem pillars, the villages, towns, and cities all received the news and even in a just a second, Zhong Yue and Qiu Jin’er’s location will be reported to the Zhong Li Celestial Race if anyone were to see them!
Other than that, there were also some Heavenly Dharma level Qi Practitioners from some unknown race that showed up. They sat in a war chariot that was driven by fiery birds across the sky. The occupants spread their psyche everywhere in efforts to locate Zhong Yue and Qiu Jin’er.
Then, every few hundred meters, there would be one person among them that stuck his head into the ground, listening to the movements underground to ensure that Zhong Yue and Qiu Jin’er don’t escape through the ground.
Many also flew and roamed around the skies, searching through the clouds to prevent the duo from slipping through their fingers by hiding within the clouds.
The Zhong Li Celestial Races also notified the outposts around the South Barren and ordered the guards there to keep a lookout for these two persons of interest.

Lady Mofei, what are these celestial races doing, scampering here and there?

In the Fiery Capital where the bone castle located, demon ladies were gathered around Tian Mofei. Each of them was dressed provocatively, with their clothes barely able to cover their private parts. One of the demon ladies laughed and said,
We just got here, and we’re busy with the spirit herbs purchase so we have yet to know what happened. Judging from their expressions, however, things seemed to be very serious.

Tian Mofei laughed and replied,
They are busy hunting down a human Qi Practitioner,


Human Qi Practitioner? Madame’s spirit herbs?

The surprised demon ladies then said,
Is it worth it to send out so many strong ones just to hunt down a spirit herb?


This one is different; this little spirit herb managed to get into the Godlike Board, even I was defeated and killed by him in the Lesser Void World.
Tian Mofei’s explanation shocked the demon ladies, but one of them suddenly clapped and said,
If we manage to capture this spirit herb and present it to Madame, then she will definitely be happy! Lady Mofei, Should we go look for some entertainment while Madame Hua Zhen and the other elders are having their discussions?

Tian Mofei shook her head and said,
No, we will be crossing the line if we do so. This is, after all, the celestial races’ territory, and although Madame Hua Zhen was invited to discuss the invasion, our demons race is still enemies of the celestial races. We better refrain from acting recklessly on their home turf….

The demon ladies around her laughed and said,
Since when is Lady Mofei this cautious?


Not cautious … this Zhong Yue is just too powerful….


We have located Zhong Yue!

The surrounding became noisy suddenly, and a female Martial Master walked in, bowed and said,
Lady Mofei, our Zhong Li Celestial Race have managed to locate Zhong Yue’s position. We are wondering if Lady Mofei is interested….


Interested, we are very interested!

The demon ladies pushed Tian Mofei out, and they said to her,
Come on, Lady Mofei, we got across the sea to this place just to ally with the celestial races. We trouble ourselves so much just for that, so it is not a problem if we look for something to keep us entertained, right? Besides, there are so many strong individuals in the South Barren, and we might not even be able to do anything other than watch.

Under the persuasion of the demon ladies, Tian Mofei had no choice but to accept the invitation of the Zhong Li Celestial Race.
The ladies then flew into the sky, and their clothes waved along with the breeze, capturing the attention of the many Qi Practitioners on the ground.

Damn these sluts, they are not wearing any undergarments at all!
shouted some female Qi Practitioners angrily.
Meanwhile, Qiu Jin’er had traveled for almost 8000 miles away from the scene. The vine man she visualized may not be as fast as Zhong Yue’s Great Sun Golden Crow, but with her cultivation base, she too managed to travel fast enough with the vine man.
Throughout her journey, she constantly changed direction, deploying traps everywhere as she feared that only one would not be enough to kill the pursuers.
Zhong Yue however, remained unconscious, leaving only the girl for herself to figure out a way to leave this place. Fortunately, she was an Innate Wood Spirit Body, which naturally granted her a far higher energy capacity as compared to others.
Suddenly, when she passed by a village, the Zhong Li Celestial Race’s villagers all looked at her, and her face quickly changed as she realized something.
Not good!
She quickly turned around, flicked her fingers, and shot out invisible Sword Qi that destroyed the totem pillars at the center of the village. The flying debris from the explosion shocked the villagers around her.
This is bad, this is bad!
As she thought this, she quickly ran away in full speed, This is bad, I tried my best to travel in the mountains and avoid these villages, but I still had to pass by some villages just now. The pursuers must have gotten wind of our location by now.
She suddenly stopped and jumped down from the vine man. She slammed her palms onto the ground before jumping back to the vine man, running away into the mountains.
After a certain distance, Qiu Jin’er’s psyche gushed out, forming more vine men that started to scramble everywhere as soon as they appeared.
My psyche could only sustain long enough until I send these vine men to somewhere five hundred miles away, any further than this distance, and they will disappear instantly. I can only stall them for a fixed time, and during this period, I have to run away as fast as possible!
