Chapter 776: Pursuit!

One had to know that even Chi Tian Feng, when facing Chen Chong, would be able to see through the latter’s cultivation in an instant! No matter how the latter tried to hide his cultivation, it would be useless! But this random kid that he’d bumped into out of nowhere was not only successful in concealing his cultivation, was even successful in dealing him a fatal blow right when his guard was relaxed!

Jiang Jun Ji was a Saint level expert, a peak level character of this world. How quick was his reaction? The instant the sword stabbed into his body, he instantly sealed his meridians and forcefully hardened his flesh and muscles to a point where they were akin to steel. However, he was still a step too late. The sword Qi had already entered his body, and exploded!

His body spiralled through the air, causing a shower of blood to rain down from the sky, before disappearing again. Then, he fell awkwardly to the ground. His eyes were wide open with shock and disbelief as he looked at the youth before him. The innocent light in that youth’s eyes were slowly morphing, turning as vicious as a poisonous snake!

He did not rush to counterattack immediately. Instead, he retreated instantly with a speed akin to lightning. This retreat directly created a 50 zhang distance between them! Then, he took out a greenish root-like object and stuffed it into his mouth. Thereafter, he chewed rapidly and swallowed. Then, with a flip of his hand, a seven-colored jade stone appeared in his palm. Grabbing the little jade stone, thick, white mist rose out of his body. At the same time, the little jade stone in his hand shrunk with visible speed, finally disappearing completely...

Jun Mo Xie could not help but to cluck his tongue with disbelief!

A Saint realm expert was truly different from any other experts he had ever met! They were seriously difficult to deal with!

Young Master Jun originally was quite confident since his sword had plunged into this perverted Saint’s heart! This was definitely without question! Coupled with that, the destructive sword Qi had been released into his body, detonating. His internal organs must have suffered serious damage! Such grievous injuries should have left him dead without a doubt!

But this shemale thing had received such a great injury, but somehow only lost that little bit of blood. After that, just by chewing on a green root and using up a strange jade stone, he seemed to recover from the injury!

How is that possible?

This was simply too... perverse!

Mei Xue Yan had told him about a Saint’s powerful abilities and inconceivable recovery skills, and he’d also guessed that his second level Venerable cultivation would most likely not be able to hurt a Saint expert at all in a direct confrontation!

Even if it were a sneak attack, it would not necessarily be possible either! TSo-called sneak attacks were basically impossible against Saint realm experts! Even if one was only an inch away, their reaction would be fast enough to block the attack!

Even if he used Blood of Yellow Flame and put all of his strength into one strike, it would not necessarily be enough to break a Saint expert’s defenses! If one wanted to deal with this class of experts, it had to be under a situation of complete surprise, when the former’s defenses were completely down. Even if one managed to succeed in the attack, there must be an instantaneous burst of damage to follow up, claiming the Saint’s life in one strike!

Otherwise, if the opponent was given even the slightest chance to retaliate, the one who died could be him!

The difference between the two was simply too massive!

Thus, the instant that Jun Mo Xie saw Jiang Jun Ji, he had already decided on a plan to deal with him, executing the death blow at the closest distance! In other words, an assassination at zero range!

This method was certainly effective, and it had been proven to be a success as well. However...

The effect was not as good as he had expected...

What he didn’t know was that Jiang Jun Ji’s heart right now was filled with terror to an extreme level!

Jun Mo Xie’s sudden stab was not only enough to be lethal; it was completely enough to vanquish his life and his soul! If this sword’s target had not been him, Jiang Jun Ji, but another Saint level expert, it would have been fatal!

Even if they received treatment immediately after being stabbed, they would still have to spend at least several years to dozens of years to fully recover from it!

Such a heavy injury was something that even Saint level experts would not be capable of withstanding!

However, he was Jiang Jun Ji! A person who had the bloodline of the strange races!

Although Jiang Jun Ji was a half-bred bastard and was conjoined like them physically, he had still inherited the dirty characteristics of the strange races! That was, although he had only one body, there were two souls in his body! Thus, he had two sets of cultivateable veins! Furthermore, they would achieve a special Yin Yang balancing effect which he could swap between freely at any time!

Him spending one day cultivating was equal to to two people cultivating for a day! Adding in the supplementary effect of his Yin Yang balance, one day of cultivation could rival three days of cultivation for others of the same level! Putting it in another way, if he cultivated for 100 years, it would be the same as another Saint cultivating for 300 years! That difference was truly massive!

That was why he had been able to reach the Saint realm in such a short time!

And it was also because of this special characteristic that he was able to escape from Jun Mo Xie’s blade, even managing to “recover” to a full state.

However, Jun Mo Xie’s attack was not completely without any use. In fact, it had done significant damage. This sword had utterly destroyed the male soul in his body! Today just so happened to be the day when his female self showed up. So although he looked fine on the surface, he knew that he would never be able to turn back into his male form anymore! More importantly, his special Yin Yang balancing double cultivation ability was gone!

This one sword had directly “castrated” him and chopped away one half of his body!

How could he not be enraged!

However, Jiang Jun Ji was not a fool! He had already sensed that all this had been an elaborate trap set just for him! After receiving such a heavy injury, Jiang Jun Ji did not think about seeking his vengeance. Instead, he was preparing to directly flee.

As long as the green hills remained, there would never be a shortage of firewood!

In case the other party still had some powerful traps waiting for him, he would truly be in danger. Perhaps even his female half would not be spared...

But, just as Jiang Jun Ji was preparing to flee, the youth across from him revealed a strange expression upon seeing that he was fine. With a shriek, the latter turned and ran! That speed was incredibly quick, exceeding all expectations!

This was no different from a panic stricken stray dog or a fish escaping the net!

In just the blink of an eye, he’d already escaped a hundred zhang away! From the looks of it, this kid was about to disappear from Jiang Jun Ji’s sight completely!

He was successful in sneak attacking me, so why’s he running?

Seeing his opponent flee, Jiang Jun Ji instead suddenly lost his desire to flee as well! In that moment, he was grinding his brains painstakingly: What is going on? Could it be... that kid is alone? The moment this thought popped up, Jiang Jun Ji’s rage erupted! Just a mere junior? To think that he trapped me and caused me to fall into such a wretched state?

Absolutely intolerable!

When he looked again, that youngster had completely disappeared without a trace!

Jiang Jun Ji howled with rage. “Damn brat! You truly have the guts to dare to injure this lady! And you still want to run?” This voice was no longer gentle. Instead, it was filled with frigid chill!

Jiang Jun Ji snorted coldly, and his spirit sense surged out. In practically an instant, he had already locked down on the fleeing youth’s escape path! In such a short time, the little bastard had actually escaped 40, 50 li away! He had dashed into a dense forest! If not for his spirit sense being vast and quick, he might have lost track of that sneaky brat!

From the looks of it, this youth was truly fleeing with all his might! Judging by the power he’d shown in the previous strike, he had already reached the second level of the Venerable rea,m! And in the mere blink of an eye, he’d escaped 40, 50 li away. It was obvious that even a second level Venerable would need to expend all their energy to reach such a speed!

Furthermore, the kid had chosen to flee in the path of the more desolate areas filled with other wildlife like rabbits, chickens, and even wolf packs. He dashed into the wolf pack, startling them and causing them to run in all directions, creating an illusion that he’d run off in many different directions!

Right now, the youth had already dove deep into the forest, and was about to pass through it at any moment!

Jiang Jun Ji roared with rage. “Little bastard, I’ll see where you can run off to!” His body moved, and with a shua sound, he disappeared from the spot as he used his full strength and chased madly! The hatred in his heart grew denser and denser, to a point where it was becoming unquenchable!

If the youth had not fled, and instead rushed forward for the kill, Jiang Jun Ji would have turned and ran instead! Although this kid’s second level Venerable cultivation was not noteworthy in his eyes, Jiang Jun Ji would have suspected that there were further traps. Otherwise, how would the kid try to kill him there? He was a Saint level expert!

But the moment he started fleeing, his greatest suspicion disappeared, and he disregarded everything to give chase!

Damn brat, so it turns out that you don’t have a helper! What amazing guts ah! A mere second level Venerable actually wants to assassinate me, Jiang Jun Ji, a Saint level expert! Right now, Jiang Jun Ji was feeling like a fool who’d capsized a ship in a shallow ditch!

The full speed of a Saint could cover a thousand li in a single breath; just what kind of a terrifying speed was that!

Jun Mo Xie had just dashed out from the forest when a figure flashed and appeared before him. A pair of eyes filled with killing intent was fixed on himself!

“F*ck! You crazy half-breed bastard! How could you be so fast!” Jun Mo Xie cursed with rage and turned around, dashing back into the forest again.

Just the single insult of “half-breed bastard” was enough to anger Jiang Jun Ji till his eyes turned blue. Boiling with rage, he exploded. “Brat! You’re still trying to run!” Pushing out fiercely with his hands, a loud boom rang out as the trees before him were all blasted into the sky! Following that, Jiang Jun Ji dashed into the dust cloud!

This strike was a truly indiscriminate attack! The attack range was several tens of zhang wide, and everything fell into its boundaries! This kind of terrifying power was definitely not something a second level Venerable could endure!

Jiang Jun Ji was fully confident that his target had suffered heavy injuries from this attack! However, he was naturally unwilling to let his enemy die so easily! For such a despicable brat, Jiang Jun Ji was determined that he would at least torment him to a point where he begged for life and wouldn’t attain it, and wished for death but could not die for ten years before letting him die!

Even doing that was still going too easy on him!

Jiang Jun Ji passed through the dust cloud, smiling coldly as he looked up. About 30 zhang away, a youth’s body was slumped against a tree, blood flowing freely from the corners of his mouth and his eyes listless! Quite clearly, the lad had suffered a grievous injury from this strike, and then ran out of energy, causing him to be slammed into the tree! Only now was his body sliding down...

This point was easily ascertained just by looking at the deep indentation on the tree’s trunk!
