Chapter 40: Escape
Chapter 40 Escape
Jiang Bushan's strength is comparable to Li Hanxue's, and Jiang Bushan's junior brother, Lu Zhi, is not much inferior to Jiang Bushan.
Li Hanxue can deal with one of them, but when two masters join forces to besiege Li Hanxue alone, Li Hanxue can hardly resist. In addition, Jiang Bushan and his junior brothers' moves are fast and fierce, and they cooperate very well. When Jiang Bushan's move made Li Hanxue busy dealing with it, Lu Zhi attacked from a place that Li Hanxue could not defend, and Li Hanxue was even more flustered.
Li Hanxue was exhausted and miserable, and he had to take care of the sleeping Kongkong Xuan Beast on his shoulder to prevent it from being captured. If Li Hanxue did not have eight Qi Dan in his body and strong internal Qi, he would have been defeated by now.
The three of them fought for nearly an hour. Jiang Bushan and Lu Zhi were more and more frightened as they fought. They were dealing with a top-level genius disciple who was only at the fourth level of the Ruowu Realm, but whose strength was like that of a fifth-level Ruowu Realm. He could fight with them for an hour without losing.
In fact, Li Hanxue was not feeling well either. It was very difficult to fight one against two. Jiang Bushan and his fellow apprentices cooperated closely, without any flaws. Li Hanxue was helpless and had no way to break the situation.
Li Hanxue had more and more wounds on her body, and the blood dyed her clothes on her chest red.
The figures of the three were like three flexible flying birds, chasing each other in the air, sometimes separating and confronting each other in the air. Sometimes they collided with each other, entangled with each other, and aroused terrible loud noises.
The battle continued. The surrounding magma was blown by the eruption of true qi and quickly solidified into black volcanic rock. The true qi of the three people surged around. Half an hour later, a large area of magma on the top of the mountain had completely solidified into black land, and only a small part was still red.
Suddenly, there was a sound of "chi!"
A stream of blood fell!
Jiang Buyan's palm brushed past Li Hanxue's ear. Li Hanxue was startled and exposed. Jiang Buyan seized the opportunity and shot a stream of Qi from his hand through Li Hanxue's waist, making a blood hole the size of a little finger.
Li Hanxue groaned, tilted his body, staggered two steps, and his face was pale.
Lv Zhi sneered and slapped Li Hanxue's back with the Falling Heaven Ruler. Li Hanxue was shocked. It was too late to dodge. He could only gather all the Qi on his back and resist it with luck.
With a bang, the Falling Heaven Ruler broke the Qi defense and hit Li Hanxue's back. A half-foot wide blood mark was hit on Li Hanxue's back, and the skin was torn and blood was dripping. Li Hanxue half squatted, panting, and the burning pain spread from the back to the whole body.
"Li Hanxue, you have reached the end of your rope. Even if you are more powerful than heaven, you can't defeat our brothers with your fourth-level martial arts cultivation. Hand over the Kongkong Xuan Beast." Jiang Bushan said with a smile.
"Dream on!" Li Hanxue said coldly.
"Brother, why bother talking to him? Just kill him and the Kongkong Xuan Beast will be ours." Lu Zhi kept staring at the Kongkong Xuan Beast on Li Hanxue's shoulder, his eyes revealing undisguised greed.
"That's right." Jiang Bushan sneered and walked slowly towards Li Hanxue.
Li Hanxue stared at Jiang Bushan and the other two, frowning, thinking in his heart: "It's too difficult to fight one against two. If I continue to fight like this, I will be defeated by them sooner or later. For now, it's better to leave first."
Li Hanxue stepped on the ground, and the magma on the ground was stirred up like waves, rushing towards Jiang Bushan and the other two. At the same time as the magma was stirred up, Li Hanxue quickly moved, without any hesitation, and jumped directly from the top of the mountain.
"Damn it, this kid is trying to escape!" Lv Zhi used his true Qi to break through the magma. Seeing Li Hanxue jumping down from the top of the mountain, he immediately jumped in a hurry.
"Chase!" Jiang Buyan did not hesitate, and jumped down from the top of the mountain with Li Hanxue.
Li Hanxue urged his true Qi, which turned into wings, supporting Li Hanxue's body, and glided towards the lake like a big bird.
After a while, Li Hanxue's body was close to the lake surface. With a splash, Li Hanxue dived into the lake and sank to the bottom of the dark lake.
Jiang Buyan and Lv Zhi also followed him into the lake. As soon as they entered the lake, they saw a vast expanse of gray in front of them, with tangled water plants and schools of fish swimming around. There was no trace of Li Hanxue.
"Damn it, where is Li Hanxue?" Lv Zhi looked around, trying to use his true Qi to detect Li Hanxue's location, but after a long time, he still found nothing.
When a warrior is in the water, the induction of martial arts true qi will be greatly disturbed, and the perception ability will be greatly weakened. As long as the opponent intends to hide his breath, he will not be able to feel the opponent's true qi at all.
It is almost impossible for Jiang Bushan and Lu Zhi to find Li Hanxue with their naked eyes at the bottom of such a vast lake.
The two brothers searched aimlessly at the bottom of the lake for five hours, but still found nothing, so they had no choice but to go ashore.
Jiang Bushan looked gloomy: "Damn it, the meat in my mouth flew away. This Li Hanxue is as cunning as a fox, with a deep mind, and he is a person who will avenge his grudges. If he breaks through to a higher level in the future, we brothers may be in great trouble, and we must find him as soon as possible."
Lu Zhi suddenly smiled and said: "Brother, don't worry, I have a way."
"What do you have?" Jiang Bushan showed a puzzled look.
"When we were fighting him just now, I wanted to take away the Kongkong Xuan Beast from him, but this guy defended too tightly, so I failed. But I touched the Kongkong Xuan Beast and left a trace of hidden true energy on it. As long as he comes ashore, I can immediately sense his location."
Jiang Bushan was overjoyed: "Good, Junior Brother, you did a good job. If we can catch the Kongkong Xuan Beast and kill Li Hanxue this time, you will have made an invaluable contribution!"
At this time, Li Hanxue was hiding in the corals deep at the bottom of the lake, wrapping her whole body with martial arts true qi, motionless, suppressing her breath to the lowest level.
The Kongkong Xuan Beast on Li Hanxue's shoulder was in a sleeping state, emitting a soft white halo, and a faint true qi gushed out, forming a circular protective shield. Even without Li Hanxue's martial arts true qi protection, it could protect itself.
"If it weren't for this little thing, I wouldn't be hunted down like this." Li Hanxue touched the furry ears of Kongkong Xuan Beast. Kongkong Xuan Beast seemed to sense something and moved its ears. Li Hanxue smiled and said, "It can be considered as blessing and curse. If it weren't for this little thing, I wouldn't be able to break through directly from the second level of Ruowu Realm to the fourth level. This little thing saved my life. I can't give it to others anyway."
Li Hanxue hid at the bottom of the lake for a day and a night and had no intention of going ashore. The eight Qi Dan in his body were enough to keep him in the lake for half a month.
Li Hanxue was afraid that Jiang Buyan and Lu Zhi would not give up and still stay by the lake and refused to leave, so he stayed at the bottom of the lake for another three days and three nights. After using the martial arts true Qi to repair some of his injuries, he swam from the east to the west of the lake bottom before diving into the lake.
As soon as Li Hanxue came ashore, Lu Zhi, who had been waiting anxiously, trembled and said happily: "Brother, Li Hanxue has come ashore, and he is now walking towards Luoxuan City."
"Okay, let's chase him! We must not let him escape this time." Jiang Bushan said happily.
