Fortunately, he had set up an Array in advance and could use its power to fight his enemy.
But the next mont, Ge Yonghai heard the ring of a sword: "Seven-Star Sword Technique—Shaking Light."
In mid-air, a faint illusion of the Big Dipper flickered into view as seven consecutive teors ca crashing down.
In an instant, the Array was blown to smithereens.
The aftershock washed over Ge Yonghai as he scrambled to retreat, slamming him to the ground.
"Looks like this Array was a bit lacking."
Xiao Chen slowly erged, carrying his Flying Sword as he looked at him. "Answer one question, and I’ll give you a quick death."
"Where are the Four Great Wanderers now...?"
Before he could finish, Ge Yonghai slamd his palm on the ground, instantly kicking up a thick cloud of dust to obscure Xiao Chen’s vision.
BANG!
At the sa ti, a thick cloud of black fog erupted, blocking any probe by Divine Sense.
Ge Yonghai then turned and fled, transforming into a streak of fiery light that shot rapidly to the east.
Xiao Chen instinctively took out the Immortal Binding Rope. ’Trying to escape right in front of ? It won’t be that easy.’
But just an instant before he acted, he changed his mind, putting the rope away and giving chase with Sword Control.
He deliberately controlled his speed, tailing Ge Yonghai from a distance of about fifty zhang, neither too close nor too far.
’When faced with danger, Cultivators instinctively flee toward a safe location.’
’For instance, Yang Zhenghao had fled to the Qingyang Spirit Ore Mine.’
’Therefore, the direction Ge Yonghai was fleeing was very likely the location of the Four Directions Wanderer.’
And so, one chasing and the other fleeing, the two of them covered a full one hundred and twenty li to the east without a pause.
Seeing Xiao Chen closing in, Ge Yonghai used Talismans and Elixirs along the way. He even gritted his teeth and perford the Blood Escape Technique once.
But no matter how he accelerated, his opponent always remained doggedly on his tail.
Ge Yonghai’s only consolation was that Xiao Chen also seed unable to close the distance between them.
"I’m warning you, the Northern Wanderer is nearby."
As he frantically pushed his Flying Sword onward, Ge Yonghai turned his head, trying to scare off his pursuer with the Northern Wanderer’s na. "If you dare to keep chasing , you’re dead at when Lord Wanderer gets here!"
However, Xiao Chen acted as if he hadn’t heard a thing. He continued the chase, even closing the distance between them slightly.
In truth, Ge Yonghai was just taking a gamble, but he had indeed guessed that the Northern Wanderer was in this area.
And this ti, his gamble paid off.
Not far away, beneath a pine tree, a young man in a blue cloak sat cross-legged in ditation.
Standing nearby was a two-zhang-tall, water-blue Divine General. It emanated an imposing aura on par with a cultivator at the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishnt, and it stood guard with a solemn expression.
Even before arriving, Xiao Chen had heard that the Northern Wanderer was proficient in the Spirit Control Skill and could summon the Frost Water Divine General.
It seed this must be the Divine General he kept.
"Lord Wanderer, save !"
Ge Yonghai scrambled over. "There’s so reckless fool who actually dared to..."
Before he could finish his sentence, the towering Divine General snatched him up.
"Guh... ngh..."
Ge Yonghai struggled with all his might, but his neck was snapped, and then he was crushed into a bloody pulp by the massive hand.
Even his Upper Grade Magic Robe was torn to shreds along with him.
Judging by that monstrous strength, this Frost Water Divine General truly possessed the Combat Power of a cultivator at the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishnt, making it no weaker than a typical Body Cultivator.
The Northern Wanderer rose to his feet unhurriedly. He sized Xiao Chen up, his gaze finally landing on the Donghua Wind Sword. "So you’re Xiao Chen from the Qingyang Spirit Ore Mine?"
"You’ve been making quite a na for yourself recently."
"Rumor has it that while you’re only at the seventh layer of Foundation Establishnt, you have the power of soone at Great Perfection. I wonder if there’s any truth to that?"
Xiao Chen shook his head. "You can’t believe everything you hear. It’s just a rumor, of course."
’This wasn’t false modesty.’
’He’d already had the power to rival soone at the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishnt back when he was at the sixth layer.’
A cold sneer crept onto the Northern Wanderer’s lips. "Your false modesty is sickening."
"If the boss hadn’t stopped us from coming after you in Qingyang, I would’ve been the first one to kill you and make an example of you."
"But hey, since you ca running to your own death today, you can’t bla for what’s about to happen."
