Chasing after her husband? Is it even possible to win him back?

Actually, the damage was a minor matter. The cultivators who gathered at the Autumn Hunting Conference around that day all had their own guesses.

Could something have happened to that sword fairy from Baidi City?

The Fifth Elder was also very worried. The moment he noticed his niece's name turn gray, he went to the organizer of the conference, the leader of the Bianzhou Cultivator Alliance, who was also the old man who explained the rules to the cultivators before the start of the Autumn Hunting Conference.

"Alliance Leader, can you sense where the talisman on my young lady is damaged?" The Fifth Elder looked at the old man who had his eyes closed as if deep in thought.

"No, there's interference. I can't sense it at all." The old man surnamed Mu's face darkened. The moment Xu Bailing's name went gray, he sensed something was wrong.

The talisman was made by himself and had an engraving. The reason why participants were not allowed to take away other people's talismans was that the talisman would intercept the holder's divine thoughts when it was used to communicate and name the talisman.

If anything happens to the talisman or the person holding it, Elder Mu will be able to sense it.

However, Xu Bailing was an exception.

The only exception in decades.

This is enough to prove that his senses were blocked by something unknown. If the connection between the talisman and the three lists had not been impossible to sever, probably no one would have known that something was wrong with Xu Bailing.

"Right now, we only have a general area, and that's from a few minutes ago, the location where Xu Bailing's talisman broke off from me. Over there..."

Please let me know.

"Take this ring, and my spirit will be attached to it. I will guide you." Elder Mu knew that this was a critical moment. If the future heir of Baidi City died, Bianzhou would not be able to bear the consequences.

To know.

The successor of the White Emperor City sect is not determined solely by cultivation level and character; bloodline is also an important factor.

The leader of Baidi City, also known as the city lord, and his family are all of the bloodline of the Xu Kingdom's royal family.

At this moment, no one knows that the one who attacked Baidi City is the royal family of Xu Kingdom.

—Deep in the forest—

Chu Xunfeng was completely absorbed in improving his Blood Refining Technique and was oblivious to what was happening in the outside world.

However, even if he were conscious, he wouldn't know anything.

At most, he would just have a drink with Jin Fugui and Li Qinglian.

The biggest change when stepping from the Iron Bone Realm to the Blood Qi Realm is the circulation and regeneration of blood qi.

Once you enter the Qi and Blood Realm, it means that the Qi and Blood within a body cultivator are no longer difficult to mobilize and will be depleted as soon as they are used.

Qi and blood flow freely, their life force never ceases to grow.

He can now land two more slashes with the leg axe used against the Earth-Splitting Beast, showing that he has become much stronger.

Noticing that his internal energy and blood were beginning to slowly increase as they circulated, Chu Xunfeng quietly opened his eyes and took a deep breath.

"Brother Chu, are you done breathing?" Jin Fugui, who was holding a wine pot, heard Chu Xunfeng's breathing and turned to look at the young man by the tree stump.

"Yes, qi and blood will generate on their own, so activating the cultivation technique is useless." Chu Xunfeng smiled, his expression filled with joy.

Li Qinglian noticed the joy on Chu Xunfeng's face and smiled, "It seems that Brother Chu gained quite a lot from the previous battle."

“Yes…” Chu Xunfeng nodded.

How could it not be generous?

In his field of vision was a wide screen that only he could see.

[Second New Player Reward Charge: 100%]

Please choose one of the following two items:

[Supreme Weapon Bone: Spiritual bones forge the way of weaponry, spear and sword communicate with the mind; wielding a spear can annihilate an army, swinging a sword can open the gates of heaven.]

[Supreme Wind and Thunder Spiritual Root: A supreme dual spiritual root, a once-in-a-millennium occurrence; wind is the fierce aura, thunder is the purple scorching aura.]

Don't select it yet.

As soon as Chu Xunfeng had a thought, the system's light screen suddenly shut down.

“Brother Chu, now that you are out of danger, my brother and I will take our leave first.” Fatty Jin Fugui stood up and looked at Chu Xunfeng. “After the Autumn Hunting Festival, I would like to invite Brother Chu to have a drink with my brother and me. Is that alright?”

"Of course." Chu Xunfeng also stood up and responded with a gentle smile, "However, just treating people to a meal really lacks a bit of fun."

"Oh?" Li Qinglian looked at Chu Xunfeng. "In the competition for the three rankings, whoever comes in last place has to pay for a meal, how about it?" Chu Xunfeng looked at Jin Fugui and Li Qinglian.

"Let me make this clear first, I'm a poor man." Li Qinglian chuckled. "Don't blame me, Li, for being unrighteous when you end up drinking horse urine."

"It's alright. What's wrong with having a cup of tea when we can drink with friends?" Chu Xunfeng clasped his hands in greeting to the two men, one fat and one thin. "Take care, brothers."

"Brother Chu, take care!"

"Brother Chu, get ready to pay up!"

Jin Fugui and Li Qinglian returned the greeting with a fist salute, and then the two men, one fat and one thin, slowly walked towards the north.

Chu Xunfeng was left standing there alone. After watching the two people leave, Chu Xunfeng took a deep breath, sat down cross-legged again, leaned against the tree stump, and said softly, "System, will there be any strange phenomena after the Supreme Weapon Bone implantation?"

No, the implantation of a Supreme Weapon Bone will not cause any unusual phenomena, but there will be an unseen connection between the Supreme Weapon Bone members.

"Sensation?" Chu Xunfeng raised an eyebrow.

[Even among soldiers of equal stature, who are both supreme beings, there must be a distinction of superiority.]

"Does anyone around me possess the Supreme Weapon Bone?"

[Yes, Xu Bailing wields the Supreme Sword Bone, but it is not recommended for users to choose the Supreme Sword Bone.]

"why?"

[The principle of "one soldier for all, one soldier for all" should not require the system to explain the concept of "supreme" to the user.]

"...Let me think about it some more." Chu Xunfeng sighed and slowly stood up.

The young man lifted his foot and, adhering to the principle of not chasing the fat and thin men, headed northeast.

Just then, they approached Xu Bailing, who was fleeing.

Chapter Twenty-Eight, Aid

The blade's energy shattered most of the tree trunk and tore through the air, but it grazed Xu Bailing's waist and landed in an empty space.

A fifth-grade magic weapon: Qi Shield.

The name is ordinary, but the effect is solid: it provides protection against arrows and can even deflect melee attacks to some extent.

Xu Bailing clutched the azure pendant hanging around her neck, pursed her lips, and continued her escape, heading straight north.

The air shield can only hold out for a little longer at most.

The magic weapon around his neck was the last thing he could use to save his life.

If possible, Xu Bailing hopes that this thing will not be used.

A seventh-grade magic weapon, within reach.

The "Zhi Chi" skill can activate a shield. The moment the shield is shattered, the "Zhi Chi" skill will teleport the wearer one hundred miles away, to a location that is random.

If you're extremely lucky, you might be teleported directly to Bianzhou, but if you're unlucky, you'll be sent a hundred miles south, which means you'll basically be thrown into the depths of the Southern Wilderness Mountains.

When that time really comes, it's just like escaping the wolf's mouth only to fall into the tiger's den.

The blade's energy whistled from behind. Xu Bailing wanted to dodge the attack, hoping to extend her energy shield a little longer.

Unfortunately, she couldn't dodge it. Her spirit and strength were already exhausted. This time, she only managed to dodge most of the attack and was still hit in the shoulder. The pendant on the woman's waist that held the energy shield shattered instantly.

The air shield shattered, and a sudden gust of wind howled out, clashing with the blade's energy. Using the momentum from the attack, Xu Bailing leaped forward another five meters.

After unleashing that powerful strike, Liu Shisan did not pursue further. The effects of the Soul-Devouring Pill had reached their peak. The masked man in black bit down hard on his right teeth, crushing a pill embedded in them.

Then, swallow it.

The Soul-Devouring Pill can stimulate a person's potential in a short period of time, squeezing out life force to provide energy for the cultivator. However, once the effects of the Soul-Devouring Pill wear off, it will begin to devour everything about the user: cultivation, foundation, consciousness, and even flesh and blood.

The Soul-Devouring Pill had lost its effect, and continuing to force himself to endure it would only lead to his painful death. Sixty-Three chose to commit suicide at this moment.

The man in black fell straight down, his breath fading.

As Xu Bailing fled for her life, she realized that the pursuers behind her had not caught up. She, who was barely holding on, suddenly relaxed and slowed down.

It seems that they've made it through.

With her longsword lost, she now only has one of her six life-saving treasures left. Her body is also on the verge of exhaustion, and the throbbing pain in her brain indicates that her willpower has been severely depleted, and it is even possible that her very essence has been damaged.

Xu Bailing leaned against a large tree, struggling to keep her body upright, breathing silently.

She was just on guard that the man in black behind her might chase after her again, but ahead, she could faintly hear the sound of leaves rubbing against fabric.

Xu Bailing wanted to find a place to hide, but she could hardly move her body. She could only lean against a big tree, lift her head with difficulty, and stare at the direction from which the noise came.

Dressed entirely in black, still masked, and wielding a straight spear pointed directly at Xu Bailing.

"Ha..." Xu Bailing took a deep breath, trying to stand up, but the man in black was faster than her, leaping out and thrusting his spear straight at the woman's neck.

Xu Bailing gripped the pendant in her right hand tightly, channeling her last bit of will into the magic weapon.

The spear drew near, but ultimately stopped just a hair's breadth from Xu Bailing's neck. Even though the spear was bent beyond recognition, that hair's breadth felt like an eternity.

It's truly within reach.

"Give up, you, you all, you can't kill me." After fleeing for more than half an hour, Xu Bailing finally couldn't help but sneer.
