"Brother, why don't you just kill him?" Bai Ruoxi didn't understand.
Although Qin Ran was indeed very strong, with the same fighting power as her, and he did have something to be able to reach this level with ordinary talent, he was still far behind Su Changqing.
"He's very interesting, isn't he?" Su Changqing said with a smile.
Then he pointed his toes and flew away from the treetops, turning into a sword light and disappearing into the distance.
Sword light is a unique escape technique used by sword cultivators. By transforming the body into a sword, it not only has top speed, but also has considerable attack power.
But it is extremely difficult to comprehend, and even Bai Ruoxi hasn't been able to learn it yet.
Seeing that Su Changqing had left first, she hurriedly summoned her flying sword, stepped on the flying sword with a tiptoe, and chased after Su Changqing.
As they moved through the tall trees of the primeval forest, Su Changqing could not always sense Qin Ran's presence and had to stop from time to time to determine his location, making the pursuit extremely difficult.
It seemed that Kieran not only used the dream-like spell to conceal his body, but also cast some kind of spell to conceal his breath.
More and more catkins were flying in the sky above the Immortal Relics Land. Those catkins were light and fluttering, heading in all directions of the Hengduan Mountains.
They fly freely and fall freely, landing on monsters in the forest, animals, trees, flowers and plants, and the ground.
They are delicate and harmless, extremely gentle, and fall to the ground silently.
Su Changqing's spiritual sense was very developed, and he could always hear the rustling sound of willow catkins falling to the ground like snow. He would be unable to resist and look back, and he would see the catkins falling on the ground and on the trees like snow, white and vast.
Covered with white catkins, it didn’t take long before the animals, plants, and monsters all withered at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Su Changqing didn't dare to look at him any more. He just told himself to focus on Qin Ran and continue chasing him.
The willow catkins in the sky appear light and soft, like snowflakes, and appear to be flying very slowly, but in fact, the catkins are moving very quickly from the depths of the Hengduan Mountains to the periphery.
Like the speed at which snowflakes fall from one place to another.
Liu Xu's advancing speed was so fast that it was not much slower than Su Changqing's speed in chasing Qin Ran.
Just follow Su Changqing from a distance.
Except for those high-level monsters in the core area of the Hengduan Mountains that either ran away or died, or were almost completely destroyed by the Devouring Demon Willow, the monsters in the middle and outer sections of the Hengduan Mountains still exist.
Now the willow catkins and snow were falling, and the lives of these monsters were threatened, so they instinctively ran away.
In the forest, there were one monster, two monsters, and three monsters. Soon, the monsters formed a herd; one herd, two herds, and three herds merged. Soon, the herds formed a tide, like the waves of the sea, an unprecedented huge tide!
At this moment, all the monsters in the Hengduan Mountains went crazy and fled in a desperate attempt to survive.
A huge tide of beasts arose from every monster in the Hengduan Mountains, from every tiny place. Right beside Su Changqing and Qin Ran, who were chasing and fleeing, more and more monsters became aware of the danger and ran away. More and more monsters appeared around them, and finally gathered into a monster group.
They also became part of the beast tide rushing outward.
Because of the beast tide, Qin Ran could no longer remain invisible, and Su Changqing soon discovered him, but also because of the beast tide, it was difficult for Su Changqing to attack him.
Qin Ran and Su Changqing were faster than the beast tide. They traveled among various monsters, crossed mountains and ridges, and headed out of the Hengduan Mountains.
They were running very fast, and it didn't take long for them to pass through the middle section of the Hengduan Mountains and reach the outskirts of the Hengduan Mountains. However, the further they ran towards the outskirts, the slower Qin Ran's speed became.
Because he was standing on the outer land, Qin Ran suddenly thought that Daojianmen was located on the outskirts of Hengduan Mountains, as were Wuyinjianzong and Zhishengu; the armies of Xuanqin and Beichu guarding the Hengduan Mountains were also on the outskirts of Hengduan Mountains, and Li Shiwen's Tiance Army was here; outside the Hengduan Mountains, there were many people from Xuanqin and Beichu.
Beast tide, catkins!
Can they survive
"Brother Qin, look at the sword!"
Qin Ran stopped, but Su Changqing didn't. He quickly caught up with him, said hello, and shot a sword energy towards Qin Ran.
The sword energy came too fast, and Qin Ran had no time to dodge, so he had to use "Like a Dream" to turn his body into water to resist the sword energy.
The sword energy slashed forward, cutting the water man that Qin Ran had transformed into into two pieces. The sword energy passed through him and cut off a huge tree not far away.
The water man broke and then recovered, turning back into Kieran's appearance. His face turned pale and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
"Sword Intention!"
The dreamlike water form was immune to most damage, especially physical damage, but this sword energy with sword intent caused Kieran to suffer serious injuries.
He had just transformed back into human form when Su Changqing approached him again with a sword in hand...
"Battle Spirit Technique!"
Seeing this, Qin Ran had no choice but to shout softly, stirring up the magic power in his body, increasing his speed by two or three times, and narrowly avoiding Su Changqing's sword.
“
The second level of the Battle Spirit Art?" Su Changqing nodded and said, "Brother Qin's talent is actually not low."
As he spoke, he brought up his sword energy and attacked Qin Ran like a storm.
There are nine levels in the Battle Spirit Art, and each level has a different degree of use of mana. Being able to double one's mana means that Qin Ran has already practiced the Battle Spirit Art to the second level.
Qin Ran had only acquired the "War Spirit Art" for five or six days, and he had already reached the second level, which showed that his talent for martial arts was actually quite good.
Qin Ran used all his strength to activate the Battle Spirit Art, and used his crude fighting skills to hold out against Su Changqing's exquisite swordsmanship. From time to time, he used dreamlike techniques to resist damage, and then used fleeting time to escape, fighting and retreating.
Monster beasts kept running around. Some were unfortunately hit by Su Changqing's sword energy and were cut in half on the spot. Some were hit by the fleeing Qin Ran and had their internal organs damaged, and disappeared in the beast tide.
Qin Ran didn't know how many swords he had taken or how far he had run, he only knew that Su Changqing's sword energy was like rain and he didn't stop at all.
At this time Su Changqing stabbed again with the sword, and suddenly a falcon flew by. The falcon was instantly turned into water foam by the sword energy. Qin Ran was able to avoid the sword energy. Su Changqing moved forward again and kicked Qin Ran in the arm, causing Qin Ran to fly sideways and hit the rocks beside him, breaking most of them.
Half of the hillside collapsed.
Qin Ran crawled out from the mud and rocks and continued running forward without stopping.
But as soon as he took off, he discovered something...
It’s snowing!
He couldn't help but stop and look up. White catkins were falling from the sky.
Su Changqing also noticed willow catkins floating over. He put away his sword and looked up at the sky. The sky was filled with dense willow catkins, all falling to the ground. Looking down at the ground, he saw monsters falling one after another. When the monsters fell, they instantly turned into mummies.
"General! Catkins..."
Suddenly someone shouted in front.
Qin Ran looked over and found that he had been chased by Su Changqing to the edge of the Hengduan Mountains. There were many soldiers in the forest over there, guarding a few small hills, trying to stop the beast tide with their mortal bodies.
On one of the hills, there was a young man in white armor holding a spear. He was covered in wounds and struggled to stand up. He saw willow catkins floating over from the other side of the Hengduan Mountains like heavy snow.
His face was covered with dark blood, and his eyes were dull, without any expression.
That's Li Shiwen.
He did not listen to Qin Ran's advice and leave the Hengduan Mountains, but continued to stay here, trying to defend the Hengduan Mountains border of Northern Chu.
