Immortality Cultivation: I Farm in the System Space-Chapter 368 - 69 Chase and Escape
Chapter 368: Chapter 69 Chase and Escape
The cultivator’s eyes were filled with sorrow at this moment.
Then, he raised his head and looked in the direction of the white-robed cultivator, shouting with all his might:
“Boss, run…”
“His Divine Sense is at least at the Golden Core Late Stage, you’re no match for him…”
The contact with Lin Jing had informed the cultivator that his boss stood no chance against Lin Jing, prompting him to urgently warn his superior.
At the same time, he braced for certain death and charged at Lin Jing again.
As the cultivator rushed forward, the white-robed cultivator called out in grief and indignation:
“Big Pudge…”
However, after shouting once, the white-robed cultivator did not charge forward but instead turned around and fled toward the sea.
And it wasn’t just the white-robed cultivator.
The stern-looking youth named Qi Yao had also realized something was amiss and escaped in terror even faster than the white-robed cultivator.
Yet, the charge of the cultivator was futile. Watching the advancing cultivator, Lin Jing had a thought.
Suddenly.
A burst of Five-Colored Divine Light exploded from within the cultivator.
In an instant, it engulfed him…
This second cultivator died tragically at the hands of Lin Jing, in such a manner.
Afterward, Lin Jing looked up at the two escaping figures.
After a moment of thought, he dashed toward Qi Yao.
As just a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, Qi Yao wasn’t particularly fast, and it wouldn’t take much effort to deal with him.
Having made his decision, Lin Jing vanished from the spot.
When he reappeared, he was already close to Qi Yao.
As soon as Qi Yao realized, his soul nearly fled in fright.
Originally, he thought he could escape to safety while Lin Jing was occupied with the white-robed cultivator.
Unexpectedly, Lin Jing chose not to pursue the white-robed cultivator but to chase after him instead.
Realizing Lin Jing was in pursuit, Qi Yao knew he could not escape.
Thus, he stopped immediately, turned around, bowed, and said to Lin Jing:
“Island Master…”
“I, Qi Yao, swear by my Soul Spirit to loyally serve the Island Master unto death.”
Lin Jing was well aware that this act was nothing more than a ploy to save his own life.
Previously, Yue Qiniang had mentioned that this man was sly and cunning, capable of anything to survive.
Therefore, Lin Jing would never consider him as a subordinate.
Consequently, Lin Jing made his move, sending out a Five-Colored Aurora towards Qi Yao’s Dantian.
In no time at all, Qi Yao let out a miserable cry:
“Ah…”
“You… you… you actually destroyed my cultivation.”
Before his words even finished, Qi Yao, now devoid of cultivation, plummeted from the sky, falling towards the sea below.
However, Lin Jing paid him no heed.
He simply turned to Yue Qiniang and said:
“He’s yours to deal with. Keep him alive. I want to interrogate him when we return.”
Having said this, Lin Jing continued forward, pursuing the white-robed cultivator.
“Yes, Island Master Lin…”
Yue Qiniang reacted quickly, commanding her sword to rise, heading toward Qi Yao…
……
The white-robed cultivator, with his Mid Golden Core Stage cultivation, was much faster than Lin Jing.
But Lin Jing, who practiced Body Refining Techniques, could occasionally burst forth, significantly increasing his speed.
In this way, one chasing and the other fleeing, they raced across the sea.
Normally, Lin Jing, capable of bursting to extreme speeds, shouldn’t have found it difficult to catch up with the white-robed cultivator.
Unfortunately, after each burst, Lin Jing required a period of rest to recover before he could burst forth at extreme speed again.
And it was during this time that the white-robed cultivator widened the gap between them.
Lin Jing was powerless to close the distance.
After all, the disparity in their cultivations wasn’t easily bridged.
And what’s more critical is…
Lin Jing lacked a quality Flying Sword Magical Treasure. He was currently using the Supreme Grade Magic Artifact, the Flawless Sword.
It seems that Lin Jing must find a way to obtain a better flying sword soon.
And the white-robed cultivator was clever; after being warned by the plump cultivator, he constantly concentrated his Divine Sense, vigilant against Lin Jing’s surprise attacks.
Lin Jing’s several Divine Sense attacks had been to no avail throughout this time.
If this continued, the white-robed cultivator might indeed manage to escape from Lin Jing’s grasp.
Lin Jing frowned in thought.
The System Space was currently upgrading; he couldn’t even use the Enhancement Possession Function.
Otherwise, he could have enhanced his Divine Sense with the Bonus Attachment function for a surprise attack, which might have been effective.
Now, without any other options, he could only continue the pursuit in hopes of finding another opportunity.
During this time of contemplation, Lin Jing’s body had somewhat recovered.
Therefore, Lin Jing once again burst forth with his Body Refinement cultivation, charging ferociously toward the white-robed cultivator.
The white-robed cultivator, sensing the terrifying aura rapidly approaching from behind, also hurriedly gathered his cultivation.
Boosting his speed once more.
After witnessing Lin Jing killing his two underlings in an instant, the white-robed cultivator knew he had hit a snag this time.
At this moment, what he hated the most, of course, was Qi Yao. If it hadn’t been for Qi Yao telling him that there was an extraordinary treasure on Li Yan Island, he wouldn’t have rashly taken his two brothers and barged in as they did.
Then he would not be like he is now, chased down like a dog who has lost its home.
However, he had seen Qi Yao’s fate as well.
If he were caught up to, he feared his own fate would not be much better than Qi Yao’s.
With this thought, the speed of the white-robed cultivator increased by a few more notches.
This acceleration caused Lin Jing to furrow his brows once again.
Having just burst forth at top speed, Lin Jing could not erupt in speed again in a short period of time, or it would cause serious damage to his body.
Seeing the white-robed cultivator getting farther and farther away.
Lin Jing immediately concentrated his Divine Sense, launching an attack toward the sea of consciousness of the white-robed cultivator.
However, the white-robed cultivator had been on guard early on. Despite Lin Jing’s strong Divine Sense, it was to no avail against the defensive measures of the white-robed cultivator.
It was only when the white-robed cultivator defended against Lin Jing’s Divine Sense attack that his speed would slightly reduce.
This allowed Lin Jing to close the distance once again.
Feeling the threat of Lin Jing from behind, the white-robed cultivator’s heart surged with panic.
Desiring to speed up even more, he tried to dodge Lin Jing’s pursuit.
But at this moment, his speed was already at its fastest. To go any faster would require the use of some special secret techniques.
Such as the Blood Escape Technique…
Sensing Lin Jing relentlessly chasing him, determined not to give up until he was captured.
The white-robed cultivator’s heart hardened, his gaze becoming extremely resolute.
Following that,
The white-robed cultivator suddenly controlled the fluctuation of Spiritual Power within his body and then, abruptly, he spewed out a mouthful of fresh blood.
After the blood was ejected, the white-robed cultivator immediately wilted, and even his speed of escape slowed down considerably.
Seeing this, Lin Jing immediately understood what the man was trying to do.
So he quickly burst forth at full speed, wanting to intercept him before he completely escaped.
However.
Just as Lin Jing erupted in speed, closing the distance, and about to burst forth once again to reach the man’s side and stop him,
The white-robed cultivator was already prepared, having activated the Blood Escape Technique. His speed instantly escalated several levels, and in the blink of an eye, he flew far away.
And Lin Jing, watching his fleeing figure, wanted to give chase but found himself powerless to do so.
Originally, he thought he could capture him, but unexpectedly, the man escaped using the Blood Escape Technique.
The Blood Escape Technique was no simple matter; using it would burn one’s own Lifespan, stimulating the body’s potential.
This would greatly increase one’s speed, not by just a single grade.
Although the Blood Escape Technique could not last long and the toll on the body was significant, in times of crisis, it was indeed one of the best escape methods.
The only issue was that using the Blood Escape Technique also burned one’s life force, but these losses could potentially be recovered through other means.
It was just more troublesome, that’s all.
Seeing the white-robed cultivator use the Blood Escape Technique, Lin Jing naturally wouldn’t follow suit recklessly.
Having just burst forth at his top speed, Lin Jing’s physical condition was already not good. If he tried to chase using the Blood Escape Technique, he feared his body would give out beforehand.
So, after some thought, Lin Jing decided to give up the chase.
……
Then, Lin Jing stopped on the spot and took a moment to recover his body.
Allowing his slightly throbbing body, which had been taxed from the extreme burst of speed, to relax a bit.
It wasn’t long before Lin Jing was fully recovered.
Just as Lin Jing was about to return,
Suddenly,
A presence was sensed from afar.
Lin Jing turned his head and saw a sleek silver-white shadow flying from the horizon.
This was a flying boat.
The flying boat moved at an extremely fast speed, and in just a short time, it was already near Lin Jing.
Those who owned a flying boat generally had strength that should not be underestimated.
Therefore, when the flying boat arrived, Lin Jing instantly became vigilant.
He didn’t even project his Divine Sense.
This was an unwritten rule in the Cultivation World.
If a lower-ranked cultivator encounters a higher-ranked one, it’s best to avoid using Divine Sense to probe the other party; otherwise, it could easily anger them.
And bring unnecessary trouble to oneself.
Especially with flying boats, these kinds of large magic artifacts used for flying.
It’s very possible that a Nascent Soul-stage or a Divinity Transformation-stage powerhouse could be sitting inside.
If you encounter such individuals and dare to probe with Divine Sense indiscriminately, that’s practically courting death.
However, the material of the flying boat in sight was bright silver phosphor crystal. Among materials used to make flying boats,
It was relatively low-grade and not very expensive.
Therefore, it was very possible that the cultivator inside was just a Golden Core cultivator.
But even so…
Lin Jing still refrained from using Divine Sense to probe the flying boat, to avoid unnecessary trouble.
However.
Although Lin Jing made no movement, the silver-white flying boat still stopped in front of him.
Lin Jing immediately frowned, quietly gathering his Spiritual Power and preparing for combat.
Shortly thereafter,
The door of the flying boat opened, and someone came out.
This emergence surprised Lin Jing for a moment,
Because this person was none other than Zhang Jian, who had previously wanted to buy Yan Shuishui and take her as a disciple.
