Chapter 1253: Chapter 13: Rainbow Smoke Escape Technique (Part 2)

However, four Dharma Treasures were coming from the opposite side, making this defense somewhat weak. With a loud crash, the glow was shattered into pieces, and even the Protective Treasure Light scattered.

He felt a tightness in his chest, but this move managed to delay those four treasures for a moment. In this critical moment, he took a deep breath, shot up, and instantly turned into a long rainbow, fleeing at a speed as fast as lightning.

Zhang Boyant sneered, his shoulders slightly shaking, and his body suddenly transformed into a billowing yellow smoke, soaring into the sky in pursuit.

Zhang Yan watched the actions of the Jiang Daoist, raised an eyebrow, and finally realized why Yong Fu suggested a draw as a victory; it turned out it was here where they waited.

When two Nascent Soul cultivators fight, if one excels in escape techniques, they can advance or retreat, and even without engaging the opponent, they can maintain an undefeated and unbeaten situation.

And Jiang Daoist was precisely someone adept at escape techniques. If Zhang Boyant could not catch up to him, then in the third round, even if the two never clashed from start to finish, the E Mountain Sect would have won.

Seeing the two flying to the sky, Yong Fu waved his robe sleeves, threw out a shuttle boat, and then took a step onto it, making a gesture with his hands and with a thundering sound, also broke through the air in pursuit.

However, Zhang Yan remained calm, standing still without moving an inch.

Chu Daoist couldn’t help but feel a bit anxious, saying, "Why doesn’t Pavilion Master go to assist Master Zhang?"

Beside him, Daoist Wen mused, "Perhaps Brother Zhang’s escape skills are not as good as those two’s, and he can’t catch up."

Chu Daoist immediately felt this made sense. He suddenly remembered something and turned his head to stare at Daoist Wen, "Junior Brother, don’t you have the Sea Traveling Shuttle bestowed by your master? Have you brought it today?"

Daoist Wen slapped his forehead, saying, "That’s right, how could I forget this item?"

He rummaged through his Sleeve Bag for a while, and finally took out a token. Chu Daoist grabbed it and hurried to Zhang Yan’s front, presenting it with both hands, "Pavilion Master, this is the flying escape magic tool given by Master Shen in the past, it can help Pavilion Master catch up with those three."

Zhang Yan glanced and smiled, "Thank you for your kindness, Junior Brother. Daoist Zhang is rarely defeated in magical duels with others. The current situation does not require my intervention. Just rest assured."

Chu Daoist was still worried, saying, "But what if Yong Fu uses some sinister trick? It would be unpreventable."

Zhang Yan looked up at the sky and said calmly, "When it’s time to act, I will act myself."

Jiang Daoist had fled first, and after traveling a few miles, he looked back, only to be greatly shocked. He thought he had already shaken off his opponent, but not only was Zhang Boyant not as he expected, he was still following closely behind and would catch up soon.

His escape technique was called the "Rainbow Smoke Escape Technique," learned by chance from an inscription in a Cave Mansion. Relying on this spell, he escaped from many disasters, except for the An E Demon King he encountered a month ago. He had never seen anyone who could match him in this, yet unexpectedly today, he met someone who was even more skilled.

Not long ago, in front of Yong Fu, he had boasted that even if he couldn’t win the magical duel head-on, he could use escape techniques to help win the last round. But now, it seemed that he had spoken too confidently. His expression changed several times, finally gritting his teeth and making a spell gesture, and in an instant, the tunneling light became even faster.

Zhang Boyan’s eyes were sharp, and he could see that this was some sort of secret technique, increasing tunneling speed in a short time at the expense of Primordial Qi.

However, he wasn’t worried at all. The fight with Suxing Valley marked the boundary, including the surrounding cliffs, spanning only about fifty miles. Where could this person escape to? He just had to follow behind, and when his Qi and strength were exhausted, he could easily capture him.

Jiang Daoist was not unaware of the drawbacks, but he observed that Zhang Yan, for some reason, did not follow, instead, Yong Fu was pursuing with a magic tool.

According to the rules of magical duels, Yong Fu could assist him in blocking Zhang Boyant three times, which was enough. As long as he could hold out for an hour, the victory was his.

Seeing that he was about to leave Suxing Valley, he turned his tunneling light towards Yong Fu, and after not going far, the two were very close. He shouted, "Brother Daoist, help me." 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

Yong Fu replied, "Fellow Daoist, go ahead, I’ll hold him off for a moment."

Jiang Daoist spread his tunneling light and flew past him.

Zhang Boyant saw this from afar, a sly look flashing in his eyes. Suddenly, he shook his body, and a Nascent Soul Avatar flew out, rolling in mid-air, also transforming into a yellow smoke, chasing in the direction of Jiang Daoist.

Yong Fu saw Zhang Boyant suddenly splitting into two, unable to distinguish between real and fake for a moment, so he picked one, waved his sleeve, and sent out a Fire Dart.

However, the yellow smoke twisted and turned, avoiding the Fire Dart. But the dart seemed to have a spiritual nature, circling around a few times, refusing to let go, while the other yellow smoke continued towards Jiang Daoist without changing speed.

The yellow smoke circled a few more times and suddenly dispersed, revealing Zhang Boyant emerging from Heaven, pointing a finger, sending out Yin Thunder, dispersing the Fire Dart. He glanced at Yong Fu with a cold smile, shook his body, and from behind over a hundred person-sized Devils flew out, crying out miserably like a tide, rushing towards Yong Fu.

Yong Fu didn’t expect Zhang Boyant to give up chasing Jiang Daoist and instead attack him. Hastily, he made spell gestures, forcing out two beams of light from the Gang Cloud above him. These were the Water and Fire Tribulation Power refined from the Purple Tribulation Fruit, extraordinarily powerful. With a loud bang, they blasted more than ten Devils into pieces.

The remaining Devils seemed to recognize the danger, whistling past his sides, encircling him from behind.

Yong Fu’s heart trembled, but before he could turn around to deal with them, he saw the Devils he had blasted apart earlier reassemble together.
