The Bailiyuan team was marching quickly, with Gan Shi beside him with a gloomy face, and behind him were Du Sanjiang's disciples, but this time there were six more people from Mei Bucai, and the Mei Bucai people looked extremely nervous.
After leaving Gong Chenying, Mei Bucai and the other six walked about a hundred miles forward and immediately slowed down their pace because they felt a strong pressure coming from several directions from time to time.
Moreover, there were faint sounds of explosions all around, obviously someone was fighting. There was also a constant rumbling sound behind them, and Uncle Gong was fighting fiercely with the enemy.
Because all parties were eager to fight, they ignored their group. In addition, Mei Bucai was an extremely cautious person and kept reminding everyone to lower their aura to the lowest level.
Often, as soon as there is any sign of trouble, they will immediately lie dormant, restrain all their breath, and only move slowly towards the intersection of some explosions when they feel safe.
The way he did it, unless the Foundation Establishment cultivators deliberately used their spiritual sense to scan them bit by bit, they would not be able to detect them in the distance during the fierce fight.
However, no matter how careful Mei Bucai and his companions were, they were still discovered after they moved forward for an incense stick of time. However, the person who discovered them was Gan Shi. Although he was in a weak period due to the effects of the "Cang Shi Dan", his spiritual awareness was still strong.
Baili Yuan was leisurely dealing with Qiu Jiuzhen, and at the same time asked Gan Shi to lead a few people to advance in the direction where Wang Lang disappeared, but not too far away from him. While fighting with Qiu Jiuzhen, they slowly moved forward. Gan Shi encountered other foundation-building cultivators at this moment, and it was quite difficult to deal with them.
He and Gan Shi analyzed that the person Wang Lang was chasing was not from the monster party, but must be Gong Chenying, so Gan Shi only needed to move forward and ensure that his spiritual sense could track the other party, and make further plans for other things later.
Qiu Jiuzhen fought with Baili Yuan intermittently several times. Both of them were in the Fake Dan realm and had equal strength, but Qiu Jiuzhen was very afraid of Baili Yuan's methods. He didn't know when he would release the invisible poison. He was cautious everywhere, so he was at a disadvantage for a while.
However, the fight between the Qi Condensation Stage disciples of both sides was extremely fierce. Although the Taixuan Sect had a small number of people, the formation of these Taoists was the strongest among the four sects, and they were especially good at joining forces to attack.
The Wuliang Sect had twice as many people as them, and was good at sneak attacks, so the fighting was extremely fierce for a while.
But as time went on, even though the Taixuan Sect had the support of the formation, it was still defeated. Both sides suffered casualties, but the number of casualties of the Taixuan Sect began to increase, which was not what Qiu Jiu really wanted to see. She could not let her side suffer heavy losses for the sake of Shibuyuan, so she withdrew from the battlefield far away.
However, Gan Shi led a few people to rush towards the direction where Wang Lang disappeared. While constantly scanning with his spiritual sense, he only felt that Wang Lang was getting farther and farther away, and his speed was much faster than his own side.
The person fleeing in front of Wang Lang was beyond Gan Shi's spiritual awareness range. After a while, Gan Shi still couldn't figure out who Wang Lang was chasing.
Gan Shi began to get anxious. He looked back at the battlefield where the explosions were heard, hardened his heart, and decided to lead these people to speed up and find out as soon as possible which team Wang Lang was chasing.
Just when Gan Shi was about to increase his speed to catch up with Wang Lang, his expression suddenly froze, because just as he was withdrawing his spiritual sense, he saw someone hiding nearly three hundred miles away from them on the other side.
The man must have been investigating just now, and his spiritual sense was released and then retracted, but that slight fluctuation was captured by Gan Shi.
He immediately scanned that area with his spiritual sense. Since that area was at the limit of his spiritual sense due to his current injuries, when Gan Shi scanned again, he could not find anything unusual.
He couldn't help but frown, and without saying hello, he quickened his speed and flew quickly in that direction. The few people following him behind didn't dare to ask this uncle the reason, and also quickened their pace to catch up.
Baili Yuan in the back had just repelled a wave of attacks from Qiu Jiuzhen, when he suddenly sensed that Gan Shi was rushing towards one direction at a high speed. He hesitated for a moment, then glanced at Qiu Jiuzhen from a distance and led his men to rush in that direction.
Qiu Jiuzhen and the other eight people watched as Baili Yuan suddenly accelerated and flew in one direction, but it was not the direction where Wang Lang disappeared. After a slight hesitation, she did not follow immediately this time.
After thinking about it, she just stayed far behind. After several waves of fighting, although two people from the Wuliang Sect died and several were injured, three people from her side died, which made her very sad.
Although these Qi Condensation cultivators would not have the hope of advancing to the Foundation Establishment stage in the future, they were cultivated by the sect at the cost of huge resources and over several decades. She could not let them perish like this.
At the same time, Qiu Jiuzhen was also constantly spreading her spiritual sense, searching for Quan Jiuxing. However, to her disappointment, she did not find the familiar figure while fighting and advancing.
Mei Bucai was so frightened that he almost peed his pants. Just then, he felt that the surroundings should be safe, so he released a little bit of his spiritual sense to explore the surroundings bit by bit.
But immediately, a powerful spiritual wave swept over his head. He was so scared that he quickly withdrew his spiritual sense and quickly restrained the breath of his whole body. Seeing this, the five people behind him were so scared that their faces turned pale, and they wished they could turn themselves into a cold stone without any breath.
However, that powerful divine consciousness obviously discovered their presence and scanned the sky above them repeatedly several times before slowly disappearing.
"We must have been at the edge of a foundation-building cultivator's spiritual consciousness just now, otherwise we would not be able to escape."
After lying there for a while, feeling that there was no spiritual consciousness scanning him, Mei Bucai carefully looked around and slowly got up. The fat on his face kept trembling as he said with lingering fear.
"Brother Mei, what should we do next?"
Cheng Jingnian's face turned pale. He looked behind him again and again, but he didn't see anything.
The other four also stared at Mei Bucai nervously. The reason they were able to survive the war was, firstly, their fighting power was great, and secondly, they were lucky.
Mei Bucai knew that Cheng Jingnian was looking forward to Uncle Gong coming over soon, but this expectation had already been determined in everyone's mind. It was almost impossible for Gong Chenying to escape from the pursuers in his current state.
"Keep going, but the closer you get to the center, the greater the chance of encountering other monks."
Mei Bucai couldn't help but smile bitterly, but he had no other choice. Without a foundation-building cultivator leading the team, they had already been as careful as possible. They couldn't just not move, as a dark shadow would soon be approaching from behind.
Therefore, they could only move forward cautiously again, but just when they had walked less than fifty miles, a powerful spiritual consciousness came over again. And it came very suddenly, which caught Mei Bucai and his companions off guard. They were immediately covered by the opponent's spiritual consciousness, and the six of them were stunned.
"It's over, it's over, we've been discovered. Junior brothers and sisters, please defend on the spot. I hope we can stop Uncle Gong from coming."
Mei Bucai's fat body was shaking as he spoke with a trembling voice, but his voice was filled with despair, but at least it was clear and coherent.
Cheng Jingnian and the other four also looked as pale as death. They knew that they could not disperse and escape at this moment. If they gathered together to set up an array and poisoned the cultivators, there would still be a glimmer of hope. If they separated and escaped immediately, with the speed of the Foundation Establishment cultivators, they would be killed one by one in a moment.
So everyone gritted their teeth, slapped the storage bag on their waist, and were about to take out their strongest means of life-saving, but they didn't expect that a loud laughter was heard from the sky. The laughter startled a few people at first, and then their faces showed ecstasy.
"Hahaha, it turns out that Mei Bucai is a bunch of little bastards. Don't run away, wait for me there."
Hearing this arrogant voice, Mei Bucai and his companions' gloomy faces suddenly turned into smiles.
"It's Uncle Gan."
"Yes... it's Master Gan and the others."
“We are finally saved now.”…
Several people suddenly started shouting loudly, completely changing their previous attitude of being like a lost dog. Cheng Jingnian, the only remaining female cultivator, had already shed tears unconsciously.
The other direction.
"Bai Li, I found them. They are about 240 miles in the direction I was heading. We need to move forward at full speed. There are only a few disciples. Junior Sister Gong is missing."
Gan Shi had a gloomy face at the moment. He did not find any joy in Mei Bucai and the others at all, and directly sent a message to the back.
Baili Yuan is still nearly a hundred miles away from Gan Shi. After receiving the voice transmission from Gan Shi, he couldn't help but feel a sinking feeling in his heart. He looked at Qiu Jiuzhen behind him and quickly asked Gan Shi through voice transmission.
"How many casualties are there? Is Junior Brother Li Yan among them?"
But he didn't get an answer immediately. After Gan Shi was silent for a moment, his voice slowly came.
"There are only six of us left. The spirit storage bag is on Mei Bushai's waist. Junior Brother Li Yan has never seen it."
Then his consciousness was cut off, and he was obviously flying forward at a very fast speed.
When Baili Yuan heard this, his heart skipped a beat.
"The spirit storage bag is on Mei Bucai's waist? Junior Sister Gong must have had an accident, otherwise she wouldn't have given the spirit storage bag to Mei Bucai. This means there are only fourteen people left at most.
It makes sense that Junior Brother Li Yan is not among them. The change in this space happened not long after he left us. He may have been transported to a certain direction alone."
Baili Yuan listened to Gan Shi's voice transmission, quickly analyzed the result, and then shouted in a low voice.
"Your Uncle Gan has found Uncle Gong's group. Let's speed up and meet up with him. I'll cover you and you guys go full speed ahead. Don't worry about what happens behind you. I want to see how Qiu Jiuzhen and a few Qi Condensation disciples can hold me back."
After saying this, Baili Yuan's docile demeanor changed, and a tremendous fierce aura rose into the sky.
Dozens of miles behind them, Qiu Jiuzhen suddenly saw Baili Yuan flying to the end of the team, while those Qi Condensation Stage disciples quickly gathered and left in one direction.
Baili Yuan just followed behind slowly and leisurely. As time passed, Baili Yuan's aura became higher and higher, stronger and stronger. Finally, he exuded an attitude of looking down on the world, causing the whole world to change color.
Suddenly, two powerful spiritual senses swept towards this side, but after coming into contact with Baili Yuan's aura, they hesitated for a moment and then changed direction.
"It seems that they have discovered something. Could it be the third team of the Wuliang Sect? This is impossible, absolutely impossible. If that were the case, the Wuliang Sect would not have encountered the team that joined us in any of the first four levels. This is impossible!"
Qiu Jiuzhen was also quickly calculating the changes in Bailiyuan in her mind, but she soon got a result that she least wanted to think of.
Although she had some guesses before about Wang Lang's aura chasing a group of cultivators, she was thinking more about the monsters. After all, the appearance of Gan Shi and Baili Yuan from the Wuliang Sect was already a very bad result.
But now seeing Gan Shiyi riding away in a cloud of dust, Baili Yuan instantly displayed a powerful momentum, obviously telling others not to come to this area.
What really dropped Qiu Jiu's heart was that right after Baili Yuan displayed his powerful strength, two more powerful spiritual senses came over. They were also not from Quan Jiuxing or anyone she was familiar with, which made her feel something was wrong.
In an instant, Qiu Jiuzhen's face turned pale, she muttered something subconsciously, and her footsteps stopped. She began to spread her spiritual sense frantically, dissipating it in all directions.
She hoped that in addition to Wang Lang, there would be people from the Taixuan Sect and the Pure Land Sect, especially the other two teams from the Taixuan Sect.
