Seeing that Yinghou had started taking action, Long Chen did not hesitate and began to slowly move deeper into the forest.
Long Chen's speed is not very fast. On the one hand, he needs to be careful and try not to leave too many traces, which will make it more difficult for Yinghou to find him.
On the other hand, he didn't dare to make a sound, otherwise all his previous efforts would be in vain once discovered by the Yinghou.
Therefore, Long Chen's moving speed is not much faster than Yinghou's searching speed, and Long Chen's route cannot be straight, otherwise it would be bad if Yinghou comes in a straight line.
After all, this was not an ordinary hide-and-seek game. If he failed, his life would be lost. For the first time in his life, Long Chen was so nervous. It was as if the blade of death was on his neck. If he was not careful, his head would fall to the ground.
"Long Chen, I saw you, go to hell"
Yinghou suddenly shouted loudly and rushed forward. Long Chen was stunned for a moment, and then a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Now his seat is about five miles away from Yinghou. It does not mean that Yinghou is faster than Long Chen.
But Long Chen needs to meander forward and cannot walk straight. However, according to Long Chen's footsteps, the distance between them is still more than ten miles.
The Yinghou was obviously bluffing and suddenly jumped out to bully the young Long Chen. If he were an ordinary young man, he would have been frightened and run for his life, thus falling into his trap.
But now Long Chen was hiding quietly under a big tree, admiring the top figure of Fengming Empire amusing himself.
However, Long Chen did not dare to look directly at Ying Hou. Ever since he was sensed by Ying Hou through the glass wall at the Huayun Pavilion auction last time, Long Chen knew that the vigilance of masters was very terrifying.
Yinghou tried several times in succession without any effect, so he had to return to the original place and continue to explore Long Chen's footprints.
After all, no matter how careful Long Chen is, he can't fly and will still leave traces on the ground, grass, stones, and dead wood.
However, due to Long Chen's caution, the traces in some places were not obvious. Careful inspection was needed to determine the path Long Chen took, which would consume a lot of time and energy from Yinghou.
Compared to Long Chen, he was more passive and paid more than Long Chen. Yinghou became increasingly angry.
"Long Chen, when I catch you, I will definitely skin you, crush your bones, and spread your ashes." Ying Hou couldn't help but gritted his teeth.
He knew that Long Chen was nearby and could hear his words. He could even imagine that Long Chen was hiding in a corner and snickering, which made him increasingly angry the more he thought about it.
A powerful man in the Yijin Realm, one of the three top masters in the Fengming Empire, could not even kill a kid in the Qi Gathering Realm. If word spread, he would become the laughing stock of the entire empire.
However, Kong was full of anger but couldn't let it out. He had to stay calm, otherwise if he was a little negligent, Long Chen might really escape. While searching, he pricked up his ears and listened to what was going on around him.
A sneer appeared on the corner of Long Chen's mouth: "You want to cramp and skin me? I'm afraid it will be difficult to realize your great wish."
Seeing that the Yinghou began to advance slowly again, Long Chen made a slight judgment on the direction. Now the only ideal goal is to advance deep into the dense forest.
In fact, he could bypass the Yinghou, sneak out of the valley, and then return to the imperial capital, and this idea was very tempting.
However, Long Chen gave up decisively, because based on his understanding of Yinghou, he would definitely have some arrangements before coming here. If he went out rashly, he would most likely fall into a trap.
The most important thing is that he is now seriously injured internally, and the meridians in his right hand have been shattered. His combat strength is less than one-tenth of his usual strength. If he encounters a few strong people in the blood coagulation realm, he may be killed.
Therefore, Long Chen had to suppress the temptation of the imperial capital and continue to march deep into the forest, proceeding carefully along the way in a "Z" shape. Although he could not quickly distance himself, it could mislead the Yinghou and let him move forward.
More slowly.
After marching for another two hours, the sky suddenly darkened, and the entire forest became eerie and terrifying, with roars of wild beasts heard from time to time.
Long Chen's face changed slightly. If he was unlucky and was discovered by a ferocious beast, although he would not be eaten by the ferocious beast, it would be the most terrifying thing if he attracted the Yinghou.
Now that night is coming, some large beasts are looking for food. Those beasts don't know how powerful he is. If they attack him as food, they will be in trouble.
At this time, Long Chen was hiding under a stone wall. Suddenly, there was a soft sound. Long Chen hurriedly scanned it with his spiritual consciousness, and couldn't help but feel his heart skip a beat.
Although he couldn't see his fingers at this time, Long Chen's soul power spread out and could replace his eyes to "see" clearly the situation within a few dozen feet around him.
It was a wolf, three feet tall, looking like a calf, grinning and staring at Long Chen.
Long Chen couldn't help but secretly screamed, "I am the one who will die. This is a beast, not a magical beast. Although it is not strong in combat, if this blind beast attacks him, even if he can kill it instantly, it will still make some noise."
Now the entire forest is silent, and Marquis Ying is only about ten miles away from him. With his cultivation in Yijin Realm, it is impossible not to notice it, not to mention that he is quietly paying attention to all the movements around him.
Long Chen slowly took out a dagger from the ring. If the hungry wolf came over, he would kill it with one strike, but he was not sure whether he could kill the wolf quietly.
If the wolf screams before it dies, then everything will be over. One person and one wolf are looking at each other, and Long Chen feels like he is sweating.
This wolf is not scary. The key is that this wolf will attract more powerful people, and that is the most terrifying consequence.
After looking at each other for a few breaths, the wolf sniffed a few times, and then to Long Chen's surprise, the wolf began to retreat, and finally disappeared into the night.
Long Chen was confused. Suddenly, Long Chen thought of a snow-white little guy. Could it be that he and Xiaoxue had been contaminated by its magical beast aura and scared away the wolf?
"Oh, that's too bad, Xiaoxue is still at the entrance of the valley."
Long Chen wanted to slap himself on the head, but he actually forgot about Xiaoxue. Before he killed Xia Changfeng, he let Xiaoxue hide in a cave.
Later, the situation changed drastically. The appearance of Yinghou made Long Chen and Aman unable to resist. Long Chen fled into the forest in order to lure Yinghou away.
Looking back now, Long Chen couldn't help but pray secretly, hoping that Aman would be smart and remember to take Xiaoxue away.
Today, Xiaoxue has eaten a lot of meat with Long Chen, and has grown from the size of a palm to more than a foot long, but it is still too small, and it is far from being able to survive independently.
Thinking of this cute little guy, Long Chen wanted to return to the valley now, but this was unrealistic. There was a killer waiting for him nearby.
For a moment, Long Chen hated Marquis Ying to the core, but he was helpless. After seeing the wolf retreat, Long Chen quickly moved a few stones and buried himself, so that he could hide his figure. At the same time,
By condensing your breath, you can also confuse most ferocious beasts.
"Ouch"
Suddenly, a scream came from the distance, and a smile appeared on the corner of Long Chen's mouth. Hehe, it seems that Yinghou is very popular.
The reason why Long Chen didn't dare to kill the wolf was because he was afraid of alerting the Yinghou, and the other reason was that once the beast died, the strong smell of blood would attract countless predators.
Those are the indigenous people here, and they can easily smell the smell of blood in the air even from dozens of miles away.
Sure enough, not long after the howl, the beast roared continuously, and Long Chen even heard the sound of the sword cutting through the air.
"Hehe, very good, you are busy first, I will practice first."
Long Chen was hiding in the pile of rocks and was difficult to find. There was a Yinghou who was socializing with wild beasts more than ten miles away. He was safer now.
I swallowed two pills, one to repair internal injuries and one to assist in repairing the meridians.
As a pill master, Long Chen naturally had to prepare countless pills. Today they finally came in handy. Moreover, Long Chen was extravagant and the pills he used were all top grade.
Since the beast fire was obtained at the last Fengming Lantern Festival, the power of the flames has greatly increased. After being able to refine high-grade elixirs, Long Chen's original spare mid-grade elixirs were all replaced.
After taking two pills, you basically don’t have to worry about the internal injuries of your body. As long as you have enough time, you will eventually recover slowly.
However, the meridians on the palms are a bit troublesome. The meridians of a person are all over the body and reach every part.
It is precisely because of these channels-like meridians that spiritual energy can be sent to every part of the body to exert maximum energy.
If the meridians of an ordinary person are broken, they will basically be useless. However, Long Chen has the memory of the Alchemy Emperor. Although this matter is a bit troublesome, it is not a serious problem, but it will take some time.
Long Chen relied on the power of the elixir to reach the end of the tendons along his wrist, which was the damaged area, and used the power of his soul, supplemented by the power of the medicine, to regenerate the meridians.
This kind of meridian regeneration is a very difficult technique. The principle is very simple. If the original water channel collapses, then build another one according to the original route.
However, this is very difficult, and the entire Fengming Empire, including Master Yunqi, cannot accomplish it.
Master Yunqi may be able to repair the meridians leading to the fingers, because many people will remember those main meridians.
But that is absolutely impossible for those tiny meridians as thin as a cow's hair. Moreover, even the reshaped meridians are shaped based on experience and cannot be exactly the same as the original ones.
But Long Chen's method is different. He makes the meridians grow naturally and follow their own memory to extend.
Although this kind of progress is extremely slow, for Long Chen, every increase is an extra point for him to save his life.
All of Long Chen's mind was devoted to repairing his body's injuries. When he opened his eyes again, the sky had begun to turn white.
I gently pushed away the pile of rocks and glanced at the direction where the wild beasts howled all night yesterday. Suddenly my stomach rumbled.
Long Chen's eyes lit up and a smile appeared on his face, hehe! Yingzhao, it's time for me to prepare some gifts for you.
