Chapter 77: Fleeing

't we all be slaughtered here by this old demon” Lu Xia Tian roared. This cyan-black demonic flame was extremely difficult to deal with. His magical power compared to it couldn't even last a few round...Once again emerging from the ground, Lu Xia Tian spat out a mouthful of blood and hurriedly took two healing pills from his pill bottle.

The leopard lying at the mouth of the stone cave saw Lu Xia Tian return injured, its fur bristling and standing on end. "Roar!" 。"You can't solve this, come in." 。Lu Xia Tian patted his spirit beast pouch and put the leopard into it. 。Then open the mechanism and enter the secret room. 。Gather the ice silkworm and the unhatched boundary worm eggs. 。After a moment's thought, Lu Xiaoteng threw several Luo Yan fruits in the secret passage and then fled. Zhang Ba originally reserved the official path for his own escape, but now he had to use it. 。“Where is he!” Yu Bao arrived at the cave, his lungs about to burst from anger. He couldn't believe that in this situation, he had actually lost him. 。Yu Bao glared fiercely at the middle-aged man beside him who had reported him. 。“Yes, it should have escaped through the secret passages inside the cave.” 。The middle-aged man's heart skipped a beat, he stammered in response. He had seen Lu Xiaoteng's prowess before; even several of the most skilled miners were no match for him. He couldn't have imagined that someone as formidable as Lu Xiaoteng would be unable to withstand more than a few moves against this person's Black Flood Scissors and would be forced to flee in disgrace. He had grown up in the mine tunnels of Heishui Village since childhood and was unaware of the distinction between cultivators and their spiritual implements from the outside world, nor did he realize that these weapons could be so powerful. 。"Hmph! Yu Bao roared angrily, the Black Flood Scissors slashing wildly in the cave." 。The rocks inside the cave couldn't withstand the power of the black dragon's shears, and stones rained down. 。A broken hole was visible within, spewing out large amounts of black qi. 。"Damn it, it's Luo Yan Guo again!" Yu Bao hated this kind of harmless black smoke. 。Plunging into the tunnel, all that met my eyes was an impenetrable darkness. I couldn't see more than a few feet ahead, let alone track Lu Xiaoteng. 。

Lu Xiaotian was still shaken as he walked through a certain mine tunnel. If he hadn't been careful, he would have been killed.

At this time, he had disguised himself as a thin middle-aged man in a black robe with a long beard. 。From this point on, there was no trace of his previous self left in his outer appearance. 。Since Yu Bao could find him through other miners, he could naturally also get these miners to inquire about his whereabouts. 。However, within this mine, the tunnels are complex and extensive, with many places untouched by human presence. 。If he were determined to hide, Yu Bao wouldn't find him easily. 。Lu Xiaotian let out a cold snort and squeezed into a darker mine tunnel. He went wherever there were fewer people. 。

However, at this time, it was not only Lu Xia Tian who was escaping.

"Master Wen, and your two disciples, where are you headed" Bi Haiguo blocked Wen Zhihan and his two disciples with a smile that didn't reach his eyes. 。“The situation in the mine has changed drastically. I didn't expect a more powerful disciple of Lingxiao Palace to arrive, even Lu Xia Tian was no match for him. Naturally, my nephew and I have to flee to avoid being caught up in this storm.” 。"Weng Zhihan, upon seeing himself being blocked, turned a sullen face and said..." 。“I’m afraid I’ll disappoint Elder Weng. None of you three can leave today.” 。"Bi Haiguo let out a cold, mirthless smile. Before Lu Xiaottian had arrived, he had always refused to trust him." 。He had long disliked Weng Zhihan, and now that Weng, who had been relying on his connections for power, had lost his support, he saw an opportunity to take advantage of him. He naturally wouldn't miss this chance. 。"Wait!" Seeing Bi Haiguo step forward with a pickaxe in hand, Weng Zhihan's eyelids jumped, and he hurriedly shouted. 。Bi Hai Guo hummed, "Do you have any last words before you die""The newly arrived disciple of Lingxiao Palace did not kill Lu Xia Tian, otherwise there wouldn't be such a big search. Do you think the newcomer can really stay in the mine for long Can he really kill Lu Xia Tian" Weng Zhi Han asked several questions in a row. 。"What do you think" Bi Hai Guo hesitated. 。Though my cultivation level isn't high throughout my life, these eyes that discern people haven't lost their sharpness. 。Although the newcomer is very skilled, he is too ostentatious and arrogant. This kind of person doesn't seem like someone who can endure loneliness, so it's hard to imagine him staying in such a harsh mine for long. 。While Lu Xia Tian was the opposite, he was decisive and ruthless in his actions, with a tenacious personality. 。He is a true ascetic, unmoved by worldly pleasures like women. 。He came to the mine for another purpose. These people, if they were hiding in the mine with all their hearts, it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack. 。Perhaps the cultivators from Lingxiao Palace will leave after a while, and Lu Xia Tian will have a chance to survive by hiding in the mine. Once he goes out, his life will be in danger. This means that in the future, the mine could still belong to Lu Xia Tian. 。"Wouldn't it be wonderful if we served under him together again" Weng Zhihan said. 。"If you died, wouldn't he rely on me even more" Bi Haiguo narrowed his eyes. 。Lu Xia Tian needs me to forge a top-grade spiritual artifact for him. 。Otherwise, do you think I could possibly have caught his eye If so, with so many people whose cultivation surpasses mine, why wouldn't he choose them instead of me Even if you kill me now, what good will it do you 。 。Bi Hai Guo's face flickered between anger and contemplation. Ong Zhi Han's words held a grain of truth. If the cultivator wielding the black scissors left the mine, Lu Xiao Tian would very likely return with renewed force. 。Although he was also a cultivator at the peak of Qi refinement, his combat strength was relatively low. Otherwise, Zhang Ba wouldn't have left him out when he went into battle. 。Except for the time I was under Lu Xia Tian's command, I had never really lived a decent life before. 。Thinking about this, Bi Haiguo smiled and said, “Just now I was a bit abrupt to Elder Wang, please don't mind.” 。"Nothing, nothing at all." 。I am also happy to turn hostility into friendship with you. 。Farewell, my friend. I must first find a place to stay before seeking out Lu Xia Tian. We shall meet again later. 。When Wen Zhihan saw the murderous intent in Bi Haiguo's eyes disappear, he immediately relaxed. However, Bi Haiguo was equally cunning and could change his mind at any time under the lure of other interests. Wen Zhihan hurriedly took his leave. 。“Well then, until we meet again.” 。"Bi Haiguo laughed out loud, dodged to the side, and gave way in the mine tunnel." 。As time spent in the mine grew longer, Yu Bao's supply of medicinal pills for cultivation ran out. Although some miners had donated some spirit stones to him, he didn't have a protective barrier like Lu Xia Tian. Even if he took them out, he would have to hand them over to the mine supervisor... 。Except for a few spirit stones that are used to hone combat techniques and spells, most are unused. 。Because he couldn't find Lu Xia Tian for a long time, Yu Bao flew into a rage and killed many incompetent miners. 。I did happen to run into Lu XiaTian a couple of times in the middle, but he escaped both times. 。Yu Bao was filled with hatred. Those damned Luo Yan Guo were useless, but in the relatively closed mine tunnels, they truly posed a problem for Lu Xiao who wanted to escape. After all, besides him, no one else could stand against Lu Xia Tian. 。, besides the Abyssal Worm Mother in her deep slumber, there was also a sturdy ghost ape with a crimson face. 。 。The auras are all not weak. 。"It's alright, you all in the Yuan Tang have had people co...
