Beginning to practice immortality as a refugee

Chapter 659 Chase and Escape

The Red Tiger Demon Saint gave the order in anger.

She asked the Heavenly Pig Demon Saint and the Earthly Bull Demon Saint to take action, and she spent a lot of money. Not only did she lose her own body, but she also bet on Mu Baijun and his collection.

What the Red Tiger Demon Saint coveted were the countless spiritual plants in the thousand-mile mountain forest.

These are the real estate, which is the most valuable part.

Old Wood is a wood demon, and he is also very rigid. He would not hurt these spiritual plants at all even if he died.

She was fully confident and felt that her chain of moves was perfect and would kill Mu Baijun step by step, like catching fish in a fishing net, which was a sure thing.

Now tell her that the net is broken and the fish has escaped.

How could she accept that?
Good job Mu Baijun!
It turns out that he was pretending to be a gentleman. What a gentleman in the wood, he was all a liar. His true face was exposed at the critical moment of life and death.

You've destroyed almost all of my spiritual plants, what do I have left?
Following the order from the Red Tiger Demon Saint, the army immediately advanced forward.

After a while, they arrived at Wanhuai Mountain.

The scene before my eyes was truly horrific.

The three demon saints sent down demon clouds to take a closer look.

Originally, Wanhuai Mountain was a majestic mountain, but after several days of attack and defense spiritual power impact, nearly half of it collapsed. Now Mu Baijun uprooted and left, destroying the other half.

Today, Wanhuai Mountain is a ruined plain with a deep pit in the middle.

A demon leader went down to investigate, took a breath of cold air and came back to report.

"That old wood seemed to have violently absorbed the underground spiritual veins before leaving..."

"There seems to be something wrong with that spiritual vein."

When the Red Tiger Demon Saint heard this, he became anxious and flew down to the pit himself.

The spiritual plants are gone, and the spiritual veins are having problems again. What is so valuable about this Mu Junlin?
There are plenty of worthless trees in this barren mountain, you can have as many as you want!
When the Red Tiger Demon Saint moved, her two sworn brothers naturally moved as well.

The three demon saints, along with their followers, flew to the bottom of the pit.

It’s really because Mu Baijun’s old tree roots are too deep and too wide in the ground.

The group of people flew down for a full hundred feet before they just reached the bottom of the pit. It was already completely dark here, and the sunlight in the sky was just rising and could not shine in at all.

The bottom of the pit was pitch black.

There is a little demon who has the gift of magical power. He can light up his own body and illuminate the surrounding environment.

Then he saw a thick spiritual vein exposed at the bottom of the pit, with a large amount of spiritual energy overflowing. The spiritual vein lay limp on the ground like a dead snake.

Normal spiritual veins have an even color and present a faint glow, but this spiritual vein looks dark and gloomy, with continuous shadows, as if it were a seriously ill and dying giant.

The three demon saints gathered together, still studying what was wrong with the spiritual vein.

They even waved their hands to take out the existing spirit stones directly from the spirit veins to see the concentration and quality of the spiritual energy in them.

There seems to be no problem.

But it seems that there is something wrong with this spiritual vein.

"Brother, do you see what's going on?"

"Third sister, if you want to ask about spiritual wine, I can tell you for three days and three nights, but I don't understand the spiritual veins."

"Second brother is the same. Normally, when we are demon saints, those inferior tribes will naturally mine the spirit stones and give them to us. How do we know what is wrong with the spirit vein?"

The three demon saints looked at each other and ordered the knowledgeable demons below to step forward.

Finally, an ordinary demon soldier stepped forward and kowtowed. He used to be an overseer in supervising the exploitation of spiritual veins by the inferior races, and was considered the most knowledgeable among all the demons.

The demon soldier stepped forward and kowtowed before investigating. After a while he said in confusion.

"Reporting to the three adults, there is a problem with this spiritual vein."

"Normal spiritual veins spread from bottom to top throughout the heaven and earth."

"This spiritual vein seems to be blocked from bottom to top."

The Earth Bull Demon Saint suddenly felt something was wrong.

"What will happen if it is blocked?"

The little demon answered honestly.

“It will explode!”

“Will it explode?” The three demon saints were stunned when they heard this.

Before they could react, the spiritual vein seemed to sense something and suddenly emitted a blazing light that almost blinded people.

"not good!"

The three demon saints had the highest cultivation levels and the fastest reactions, and they immediately expanded their domains, soaring into the sky without caring about anyone else.

The other Shenhua, Yuanying, and Jindan were slow to react and also hurriedly flew into the sky.

It's just too late.

Then there was a loud bang.

The spiritual vein under the pit suddenly lit up and exploded. The huge aftermath of spiritual power swept across the surroundings. Because of the relatively narrow space in the deep pit, the impact was superimposed on each other.

"what……"

Countless demon followers screamed at the same time and were evaporated into gas.

A column of black smoke shot up into the sky.

The three demon saints were almost "sprayed" out from the ground by the huge aftermath of spiritual power, and each of them was followed by several clever and quick-escaping subordinates of the Demon Emperor.

"Wow……"

The three demon saints each spat out a mouthful of blood, having been injured.

They were surrounded by domains and various demonic shields, but even so, the explosion of their spirit veins was like a heavy hammer hitting them, causing them to vomit blood.

Such injuries are not serious, but they are definitely not minor. More importantly, the three of them felt that the old man who escaped slapped them hard in the face!
As for the follower, the Demon Emperor who had accompanied them into the pit, he screamed in agony. He was rushed out of the pit and then swept away by the aftermath of the spiritual power, and thrown hundreds of feet away like a torn sack.

His body rolled over countless times, his tendons and bones were broken, his sea of ​​consciousness and qi were shattered, and he fell to the ground, struggling in pain.

Although he saved his life, his qi sea and consciousness sea were almost shattered. It can be said that his cultivation was wasted and he was as good as dead while still alive.

These demon emperors who had transformed into gods could not even maintain their human form on the spot. They were blown out of their original forms and their power began to dissipate.

The Nascent Soul body in the body disintegrated, the demon pill collapsed, and countless demonic powers spread uncontrollably to the surrounding earth. Black smoke billowed, and the pain was excruciating.

Also.

The demon army outside the big pit was originally arranged around it.

Now a huge wave of spiritual power rushed out of the pit and swept around, and no one knew how many Nascent Soul Golden Cores had died at that time.

Its power was so great that it even flattened dozens of surrounding mountains.

Seen from the sky, Wanhuai Mountain, the core area of ​​Mujunlin, was destroyed once again, and dozens of mountaintops collapsed.

"what……"

The Red Tiger Demon Saint vomited blood and stood firm again.

Her hair was disheveled, her armor was in tatters, and her body was stained with blood.

The Heavenly Pig Demon Saint and the Earthly Bull Demon Saint looked similar to her and both suffered great losses.

As for the hundreds of elite demons who followed them into the pit, except for a few useless demons who escaped, almost all of them were buried in the pit, and no trace of their bodies was left.

"I'm pissed off too!"

The Red Tiger Demon Saint roared towards the sky.

This is really a case of losing both the wife and the army!

Who would have thought that the old wood looked honest, but was actually pure black inside when cut open.

People ran away, but they actually dug a pit and set an ambush to kill so many people!
"I will not withdraw my troops until I kill this beast!"

The Red Tiger Demon Saint's heart was bleeding. Almost all the demons who died this time were her subordinates. This meant that even if she conquered Mu Junlin, she would still lose money.

The Heavenly Pig Demon Saint and the Earthly Bull Demon Saint also looked unhappy.

They are demon saints, so even if they go to other demon saint territories, they have to have the necessary pomp and circumstance.

Three to five divine subordinates and a dozen Yuanying demon kings are standard.

Now, they were all buried in the explosion of the spirit vein... Those who escaped had their cultivation level crippled and were already dead monsters in their eyes.

The three demon saints were heartbroken.

With so many high-ranking subordinates killed at once, it would take a hundred years to make up for the loss.

Which of these subordinates is not their carefully cultivated confidant?
It's not a crop. It will grow again after being harvested. Once it's gone, it's gone.

After a while, the three demons reorganized their team.

Almost all of the high-level subordinates of the Spiritualization and Nascent Soul stages were wiped out, and most of the Golden Cores were lost. As for the ordinary monsters that were gathering numbers around the pit, countless of them were also killed. This was now a remnant army.

We collapsed like this before even meeting the enemy.

The Red Tiger Demon Saint was so angry that his teeth were grinding.

"My two brothers, I can't bear this and I decided to give chase. What about you?"

The Heavenly Pig Demon Saint revealed his vicious side.

"Humph, that's all he knows."

"When we catch up with him, without the advantage of terrain, let's see how he will fight."

The Earth Bull Demon Saint also agreed.

"If the army is destroyed, then it is destroyed. Let them return to the demon city to recuperate."

"Only three of us are needed to pursue them."

“Although we were injured, with three against one, the advantage was still in my hands.”

"Some of the old man's subordinates are not worthy of our attention. They are just cannon fodder."

Now that the three demon saints had reached an agreement, they ordered their subordinates to return to the demon city.

The losses were indeed heavy. If these subordinates were affected in the melee between the Refining Void Demon Saint, they would never be able to afford to die.

That old wood is a black wood, and no one knows what tricks are waiting for them.

The three demon saints rode on the demon cloud and chased straight down.

However, they chased him for a whole day and night, but still failed to catch him.

The three demon saints stopped, puzzled.

The Heavenly Pig Demon Saint has a pair of pig noses that can track and identify traces, and is extremely sensitive.

Seeing that Mujunlin was empty, it meant that Mu Baijun had left with his subordinates and several thousand family members.

With so many people gathered together, they must have left traces behind, just like the sound of a passing geese.

However, today the Heavenly Pig Demon Saint led the three Demon Saints, rushing east and west, sometimes even making several big circles and returning to the original place, but gained nothing.

The Heavenly Pig Demon Saint is about to sweat.

"There's something about this old wood..."

He explained to the Red Tiger Demon Saint and the Earth Ox Demon Saint.

I don’t know what magical power the other party used to mislead the direction of his pursuit.

"But don't worry, second brother and third sister..." The Heavenly Pig Demon Saint said with a smile, "He has spread many baits along the way."

“We are heading in the right direction after all.”

"It's just a longer detour."

"As long as he can't run fast with most of his men, he will be caught up by us sooner or later."

The Earth Bull Demon Saint nodded.

"Second brother, don't worry."

"It's good that we catch up later. It gives us time to recover from our injuries."

"When we really catch up with him, we will kill him immediately. It is like sharpening the knife before chopping wood."

So the three demon saints built a cave on the spot to rest and prepare for the battle tomorrow.

Thousands of miles away.

On the big ship.

On the deck, there grew a strange species of dandelion that was several meters tall.

Because it was actually grafted onto a locust tree that was created by Mo Baiyi.

There were no green branches and leaves where the tree canopy should have been, but instead it was covered with white dandelions of various sizes.

These dandelions mature and bloom one after another.

They emit white light, and when they grow to the size of a washbasin, they mature and extend countless fine white cilia several feet long, pointing at the people on the boat. Then, in a few breaths, they are dyed into various colors.

When the colors are colorful and full to the extreme.

There was a soft bang.

When the mature colorful dandelions fall off, they will automatically fly to the hands of Mo Baiyi who is sitting cross-legged on the deck.

He made some hand gestures and then blew, and the dandelion floated under the boat and flew away in other directions.

Lu Ye watched from the side with the perspective of a fish-dragon diagram and discovered that when the dandelion matured, its long hairs absorbed the scent of everyone, the breath of magic, etc., and were then released by Mo Baiyi, floating freely, so he also allowed it to collect his information.

It was already late at night.

Mu Lin, who had been despised all the way, finally figured it out.

Only one of us, Master or I, is right.

Master can’t be wrong.

Then I must be wrong.

So he immediately bowed his head and admitted his mistake to Mo Baiyi. Seeing that his "beloved disciple" had come to his senses, Mo Baiyi pretended to be a good master and forgave him.

"Master..." Mu Lin asked in confusion, "We have been on the run for a whole day today."

"Why haven't the three demon saints behind caught up yet?"

Mo Baiyi smiled slightly.

"It's nothing."

"Master has set up some tricks in the spirit veins to give them a big explosion."

"And the Dandelion Secret Art misled them in their pursuit."

"The people chasing after us are most likely the Three Demon Saints."

"They don't have minions to help correct mistakes. They only rely on three people to use their magical powers to track them down. Naturally, it takes a lot of time and effort. If they lose the track, they have to start over again."

"But if we do this, we will only get further and further away from them, and naturally we won't be able to catch up with them."

Mo Baiyi paused for a moment.

"Of course, this is just a delaying tactic."

"These tricks can only delay their progress."

"In the end, as long as they don't give up, they will catch up."

Mu Lin was shocked when he heard this, and he focused on the first sentence his master said.

"Spiritual vein explosion?"

If Mu Junlin's spiritual vein exploded, wouldn't that be the destruction of that blessed land?
From now on, the spiritual energy in that place will not be as strong as before, and Mu Junlin will not grow so many spiritual plants.

In the eyes of the monks, isn't it half useless?
This is this...

Master’s actions were truly unexpected, each one wilder than the last.

This will harm the flowers and plants on the mountain.

Hasn’t Master always claimed to be a follower of the Taoist school of nature, and that he values ​​protecting spiritual plants more than life itself?
It seems that he is probably one of the rare extremely selfish wood monsters. As long as I can become an immortal, he will not hesitate to suck the essence of all the spiritual plants in the world.

Mu Lin was shocked by his own guess and took a breath.

Thinking of the scene where Mu Sen was torn into pieces and swallowed by tree roots by his master, he realized belatedly that he seemed to have discovered the horrible true face of his master.

Think about it.

Mu Lin had no choice but to bow his head and be an extremist.

Master has treated me well and I am still on the run, so how can I be picky?
Even if I want to defect, Mu Sen is a lesson for me, so I'd better follow my master obediently. Considering my many years of filial piety, my master shouldn't do anything to me.

Many strange ideas flashed through Mu Lin's mind.

Lu Ye wasn't surprised when he heard this, but he still looked a little surprised.

Mo Baiyi led the remaining troops to avoid being hunted down by the demon tribe. During the process, they fought with wits and courage and used all kinds of tricks.

It is naturally a piece of cake to use it to deal with the three demon saints.

However, the cultivator has already won by strength. These tricks can confuse the Three Demon Saints for a while, but one day the Three Demon Saints will catch up with them, and by then they will probably not be able to defeat them.

"Mulin," Mo Baiyi ordered at this time, "go and replace nephew Shangxian."

"The master has something to tell the two nephews."
