Chapter 558: Chase!
readx;
The Soul Eater originally thought that he had escaped Cao Ke's pursuit, after all, Cao Ke was relatively slow when climbing the cliff, and the distance between the two of them was even more than 100 meters......! It clearly remembered in its mind that before it was leaving, its master had specially told it not to be discovered by others! How could it have thought that Cao Ke's appearance was too sudden! God knows how a human would hang next to his target?
Moreover, Cao Ke, a human being, had already begun to try to pick the flowers when the Soul Eater rushed to the side of the Death Dhara Flower! If Cao Ke had been allowed to get the Death Dhara Flower first, the Soul Eater would really not have the confidence to take it back from Cao Ke's hands! What a joke! The place where the Death Dhara Flower bloomed was the entrance and exit of the two worlds of life and death! Not to mention the violent hurricane that has existed for many years, it is the steep crater cliff, which is not something that anyone can climb!
Now that Cao Ke has arrived at the location of the Death Dhara Flower, then it can fully explain his terrifying strength! After all, the Soul Eater is just a low-level creature in the Death Realm, it is okay to bully and bully the Lonely Soul Wild Ghost, and against a cultivator master like Cao Ke, the Soul Eater is far from that guts!
It was precisely because of this that this Soul Eater took advantage of his body at the first time to pick the Death Dhara Flower one step ahead of Cao Ke, and then it began to flee without looking back! Where would it have thought that on the root of this Death Dhara Flower, it would be very coincidentally entangled with the Wind Elemental Fragment of the Elemental Lord, provoking Cao Ke's tail to chase after it regardless of the danger, and followed it all the way to the top of the crater!
But even so, this Soul Eater only felt a little surprised, it did sincerely feel Cao Ke's spirit of not fearing death in order to achieve its goal, but it didn't think that Cao Ke could really catch up with him! You may not know that this Soul Eater is known for its absolute speed in the Death Realm! Even compared to the high-level black and white impermanence, it is not far behind, and this Soul Eater is indeed very interested in the terrain of the crater. The environment was quite familiar and adaptable, so when it saw Cao Ke also climb to the top of the mountain, there was no fear or shock in its heart. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
However, in the next moment, this Soul Eater was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, and the hairs on its body suddenly rose, and a cool breath rushed out from its back spine, freezing its body stiff, and it almost fell to the ground!
What is it that makes this Soul Eater so abnormal? Isn't it that it saw Cao Ke who carried the magic skill of "Second Turn to Resist the Wind"! If it could give the Soul Eater a little time to complain at this time, this Soul Eater would definitely open its bloody mouth and say with a face full of disbelief: "Is this meowing alive? How can this human being's speed be so fast? This is almost at the level of the Fu Jun? When did the human world have such a master?...... I'm a ghost myself! How could I say something like 'live a ghost'?...... It's really incoherent......"
There is no way, this Soul Eater can only turn around and give birth to its speed to an extreme! Even if it knows that its speed is not as good as Cao Ke, it can't just stay where it is and wait for Cao Ke to snatch the Death Dhara Flower back from its hands! As long as it can escape to the north end of the crater before Cao Ke catches up with it, it can return to the Death Realm through the secret passage there! At that time, no matter how strong Cao Ke is, there will definitely be no way to take it again!
Having made up his mind, this Soul Eater changed his previous way of escaping straight and adopted a roundabout strategy, using the cover of the uneven and rocky terrain of the crater to avoid Cao Ke's line of sight as much as possible, making it difficult for Cao Ke to discover its whereabouts, so as to reduce Cao Ke's speed advantage and achieve his goal of escaping safely!
As soon as the actions on the Soul Eater's side change, the actions of Cao Ke's pursuit must also change! In any case, the side of the tracker is passive, even an existence like Cao Ke whose cultivation is several levels higher than that of the opponent cannot avoid this iron law! The Soul Eater was short in stature, and when he turned to a stealthy escape, Cao Ke immediately fell into a state where there was almost nothing he could do, and he could only reduce his speed first, relying on the motion capture of his eyes on the Soul Eater to decide his next pursuit, so as to provide enough time for the Soul Eater to escape......
"He's meowing!" Cao Ke was very dissatisfied with his intermittent state of pursuit, and he couldn't help cursing in his mind: "This little ghost actually takes advantage of the complicated terrain on the top of the mountain!
The Qilin Fire Spirit suddenly spoke, and said in a solemn tone: "There are two questions now, first, how can this Soul Eater, who is a creature of the Death Realm, be so familiar with the terrain around this God Slaughter Vent? It stands to reason that it is impossible for a creature of the Death Realm to appear in the Living Realm, when I first saw this Soul Eater, I thought it was unintentionally and came to our Soul Eater for the first time, but now it seems that this Soul Eater must have come countless times!" Otherwise, it would never have been able to dodge and escape so easily!"
"As for the second question, it's the ultimate goal of this Soul Eater's escape! It should be very clear in its heart, its absolute speed can't compare to you, and the reason why you haven't caught it now is that it is good at using the terrain! But this does not become a basis for it to escape in the end! After all, even if you can't catch it, it's always no problem to keep up with it! It must have its intention to hide and escape so hard...... Perhaps, it escaped to a fixed place where it could link the two worlds of life and death, so that it could escape back to the world of death safely......"
Cao Ke nodded when he heard this, and said, "What you said is very true, senior! But even if we know the purpose of this soul eater, there is nothing we can do about it! We are not familiar with the terrain of this mountain top! We can only passively track its figure! If it keeps it in this state, we will not be able to catch it before it reaches its destination!"
Speaking of this, Cao Ke's eyes couldn't help but light up, and he asked, "Senior, you said that if I launch a Qilin Fire range attack on the top of this mountain, can I make the complex terrain easier?
The Qilin Fire Spirit sighed and said, "Elsewhere in the Lingtian Continent, although this method of yours is laborious, it is not a good plan! With your current cultivation of more than sixty levels, even if you can't reach the level of moving mountains and reclamation, such a thing as leveling a mountain can still be completed!"
"But not here! Have you forgotten what this place is? This is the Divine Slaughter Channel, a solid barrier linking the two worlds of life and death! Not to mention that you are more than sixty levels, even if you have sensed the Heavenly Dao, there is no way to destroy this place in the slightest! Otherwise, there are so many great powers in the Death Realm, wouldn't it have broken through this Divine Slaughter Outlet to invade the human world a long time ago?"
Listening to Qilin Huo's analysis, Cao Ke's heart couldn't help but feel a burst of frustration, and sighed: "If the trick of destroying the terrain doesn't work, then I really don't know what to do! If I let this Soul Eater bring the wind elemental fragments to the Death Realm, I really won't be able to gather all the fragments of the Elemental Lord! At that time, I will only gradually be invaded and corroded by the existing fragments, and eventually become a puppet and a shell of the Elemental Lord's resurrection......"
"Don't be so pessimistic!" Qilin Fire Spirit comforted: "Things have not yet reached a completely irreparable state, even if that wind elemental fragment really reaches the death realm, it will not be the end of the world for you! Don't forget, waiting for you to resurrect her elemental lord, but just stay in the death realm! With her strength, even the most powerful mansion monarchs in the death realm have to give them a few points! You just need to let the elemental lord take action, and this soul eater will want to return the wind elemental fragment!"
"Besides, who told you that we have lost the chance to catch this Soul Eater now? Doesn't it want to use the terrain to reach its final destination? Then we just need to find its final destination, and wait there for it to go on its own!"
"Oh?" Cao Ke was obviously intrigued by the words of the Qilin Fire Spirit, and hurriedly asked, "Senior, how can we determine where this Soul Eater's final destination is?"
The Qilin Fire Spirit said very seriously: "If you can successfully avoid the entrance and exit of the two worlds of life and death, and open up a passage between the two worlds, the entrance must be a very secret and special existence! Looking at the current surroundings, except for the hurricane, there is no place that is eligible, you can follow the soul eater slowly first, and wait for me to find the entrance of this passage!"
"Okay!" Cao Ke smiled with great satisfaction, since the Qilin Fire Spirit took the initiative to take on the most difficult task, then why didn't Cao Ke do it? What he had to do next was to hang behind the Soul Eater and prevent it from getting rid of itself completely!
In this way, the one in front is on the run with great effort, and the one in the back is chasing after him for a long time! The one who escapes is full of confidence, and the one who is chasing is relaxed and comfortable! The picture of the chase and escape formed by them is not at all tense, and it is like two children playing a game......
