After fifteen years of cultivation, he finally reached the pinnacle of the first rank!

Chapter 429 Vitality
The white-haired old man lowered his eyes and glanced at the collapsed tunnel in the courtyard in front of him, then casually waved his hand.

The collapsed ground trembled slightly, and then wisps of blood-red mist slowly rose up.

The blood-red mist emerged from the ground and spread further into the distance in a visible manner, revealing the direction in which the Fifth Elder and the others had fled in the tunnel.

Upon seeing this, all the experts from the Yellow Springs Department showed joy and immediately continued their pursuit along the blood mist.

……

The lobby of the inn.

The large black cat, who had been watching the commotion, leaped down from the roof of a nearby house and landed on the street in front of the inn.

After the previous intervention of the Yellow Springs Department and others, the inn's main gate was in a dilapidated state, and the lobby was deserted. Even the innkeeper and waiters were nowhere to be seen, having apparently escaped to who-knows-where.

The big black cat limped into the lobby on its four legs, with large patches of fur missing from its tail and back. The once thick-furred cat was now bald.

As soon as the big black cat entered the lobby of the inn, it limped upstairs and struggled to run towards Li Musheng's room.

In a room upstairs in the inn, Li Musheng was studying martial arts techniques.

Upon seeing the door suddenly burst open and a huge, hairless cat run in, I couldn't help but frown.

Of course, Li Musheng quickly recognized the big black cat, after all, cats this big are rare.

As soon as the big black cat saw Li Musheng, it meowed and ran over, gesturing with its paws as if it were trying to accuse him of something.
Li Musheng looked down at the other party for a while, and seeing the big black cat's ugly appearance, he couldn't help but laugh out loud with disgust.

However, the big black cat was filled with grievance and anger at the moment, and was only focused on gesturing and meowing, so it didn't notice Li Musheng's attitude towards it.

It had been following the blind man, watching the spectacle with great interest as he slaughtered his enemies.

However, this period of good fortune was short-lived. After the appearance of the Rakshasa Saint King of the Yellow Springs Department, the situation changed drastically.

Rakshasa Saint King's martial arts prowess was terrifying, and because of the death of Prince Jin Chuan, every move he made while chasing the blind man was a killing blow.

The big black cat, having followed the blind man at a short distance, happened to hide near his escape route when the blind man fled.

Therefore, the big black cat was unfortunately caught in the crossfire.

Not only was it affected by the residual force of the palm strike from the Rakshasa Saint King, but a large patch of its fur was also shaved off by the overflowing sharp palm wind. The cat was even blasted away and broke one of its legs.

The big black cat used its paws to gesture its miserable experience, and after watching for a while, Li Musheng roughly understood what had happened to the cat.

However, when the big black cat rubbed its head against his robe, trying to get him to stand up for him, Li Musheng refused. Instead, he pushed the cat aside and said:
"You've learned your lesson from this experience. I think you, the cat, should take this as a lesson."

Seeing this, a look of disappointment appeared in the big black cat's eyes.

But it couldn't bother Li Musheng, since it had become a bald cat and couldn't let Li Musheng pet it, thus temporarily losing its value.

Thinking of this, the big black cat lowered its head and meowed, but it made up its mind to wait until its injuries healed and its fur grew back.

When the time comes, I will definitely find an opportunity to pester Li Musheng relentlessly to help me get revenge for the injury caused to me by that Rakshasa Saint King today!

There's no way around it, its vengeful nature is too strong, it has to be an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth!
"Alright, go find Miss Cang and ask her to give you some healing pills."

Li Musheng waved his hand, dismissing the big black cat. He could tell at a glance that the cat had only suffered minor injuries and was actually fine; it would recover in a few days, and he wouldn't even need to lift a finger.

Upon hearing this, the big black cat could only meow in response, then stopped bothering Li Musheng and limped away.

However, at this moment, Li Musheng's expression changed, and he looked outside the inn, raising his eyebrows slightly.

Meanwhile, the blind man with pale eyes coughed up blood and scurried away through the streets and alleys of Huangquan City.

The bamboo pole he was holding had cracked and broken into two pieces, and one of his arms was hanging limply at his sides. He looked extremely disheveled and weak.

The martial arts prowess of the five Holy Monarchs of the Yellow Springs Department far exceeded the blind man's imagination. Although he had tried his best to escape, he was still struck by a palm from the Rakshasa Holy Monarch.

With just one palm strike, the opponent nearly killed him.

If he hadn't desperately used his movement techniques to dodge, at the cost of losing an arm and the "Millennial Bamboo Heart," he would probably have already lost his life at the hands of his opponent.

For the blind man, if he were to receive another blow from the Rakshasa Saint King, he would surely die.

Now, severely injured and greatly weakened, he can't hold out much longer against the relentless pursuit of the Rakshasa Saint King.

"Where do you think you can escape to?"

The Rakshasa Saint King's chilling voice rang out, and the surrounding streets were filled with a billowing aura of malevolence that seemed to blot out the sun, creating a terrifying and horrifying atmosphere like a raging torrent.

A palm formed from soaring malevolent energy descended, instantly collapsing several earthen buildings and sending dust billowing, leaving a huge palm print crater on the ground.

The blind man barely dodged the edge of the palm print. His lifeless eyes looked up at the sky, and he suppressed the urge to cough up blood before disappearing again and continuing his frantic escape.

At this moment, the blind man, who had once again narrowly escaped a fatal blow, was exhausted.

His consciousness began to fade, and a look of sadness appeared on his scarred face.

"When I agreed to that girl's request, I had already foreseen this day would come."

The blind man shook his head inwardly, however, he didn't actually want to die.

Perhaps it was his will to survive, or perhaps it was his extraordinary perception that made him, on the verge of death, finally muster his last bit of strength and escape in a certain direction within Huangquan City.

Meanwhile, after the Fifth Elder escaped from the secret passage with two clansmen, the girl Ah Xiu, and the dwarf, they immediately destroyed the tunnel.

However, before they could even breathe a sigh of relief, the Fifth Elder sensed the approaching presence of experts from the Yellow Springs Department.

At this point, the group naturally realized that the people from the Yellow Springs Department must have some kind of special tracking method to lock onto them.

So even if they destroy the tunnels, the enemy can still find and follow them.

Thinking of this, the Fifth Elder and his group were almost heartbroken. Now they were on the territory of the Yellow Springs Department, and their auras had been locked onto by the other party.

Given their individual strength, there was absolutely no way they could escape the pursuit of the Yellow Springs Tribe; their fate was almost certain to be sealed.
