Chapter 35 Split Up and Flee
The gloomy night sea is no longer lifeless.
Three flying boats approached at an alarming speed. At the bow of each boat, a cultivator formed a hand seal with his fingers, and a burst of spiritual light suddenly erupted, transforming into several deadly attacks that pierced through the air.
Its momentum was immense.
It was actually a Qi Refining Level 3 cultivator who made the move!
"This is an ambush."
"Let's find a way to escape first!"
The two elders of the Zhao family acted swiftly, their spiritual energy surging as they unleashed several high-grade first-tier magic weapons to intercept the incoming killing blows.
Almost simultaneously.
The airship beneath them suddenly changed direction and retreated at full speed back the way they came.
The expressions of the people inside the boat varied.
The fight between cultivators at the third level of Qi Refining was something that lower-level cultivators could not intervene in. They could only cower in their cabins, watching the situation with fear on their faces.
Zhao Jiaxian and Miao Du took out their protective magical artifacts.
Wu Xiuyuan and other family members were also prepared.
A quick glance revealed that they were all top-grade first-tier magic weapons, almost one for each person.
Wow!
A flash of light broke through the Zhao family's blockade.
The flying boat swerved urgently, stumbled in the night sea, and plummeted several feet, allowing the blade to graze past it and avoiding a direct hit.
"No, they're prepared and outnumber us. We need to escape to the lower levels first!"
"I have sent a message requesting assistance."
"It will take two hours to get there!"
The two elders from the Zhao family exchanged ideas quickly.
The flying boat immediately plummeted towards the second level of the night sea.
The three flying boats pursued relentlessly, unleashing bursts of fire, sword light, and golden light, turning the night sea almost into daylight.
"This is bad."
"The opponent has six Qi Refining Level 3 cultivators."
"Judging from this situation, I'm afraid these two from the Zhao family won't be able to hold out for much longer."
Ji Yun looked behind him.
The two elders of the Zhao family had already gone all out, using spirit stones to replenish their spiritual energy and taking out several magical artifacts to desperately intercept them.
However, the opponent has a numerical advantage.
They only made their move from afar.
With this ebb and flow, the spiritual energy within the two members of the Zhao family will eventually be exhausted.
When they are exhausted and their strength is nearly gone, that is when the enemy will launch an attack.
……
As Ji Yun had predicted, things unfolded exactly as he had expected.
Three flying boats followed slowly behind, continuously casting spells to force the Zhao family's flying boat to plummet towards the lower reaches of the night sea.
Not long after.
boom!
A burst of fire struck the airship.
The airship was severely damaged, with a hole blown into the cabin. The elders of the Zhao family reacted quickly and took out a bronze bell to cover everyone.
"die!"
A loud shout rang out.
The opponent pressed their advantage.
Several high-grade first-tier magic artifacts suddenly pierced the night and attacked them.
"The Zheng and Hu families are in cahoots, only daring to resort to such a despicable sneak attack?"
"The Zhao family will demand an explanation from both of you for what happened today!"
The two elders of the Zhao family shouted angrily.
One of them took out a second-grade low-level magic artifact, activated it with all his might, and manifested a blue water mirror, blocking the way in front of everyone.
The other person patted the storage bag and took out a small flying boat from it.
"Hurry up and get on the flying boat."
"You guys go first!"
Zhao Jiaxianmiao, Ji Yun, and the others immediately got up and climbed into the new flying boat.
Then, an elder of the Zhao family raised his hand, made a hand seal, and ruthlessly struck the flying boat with a palm.
The airship plummeted rapidly into the lower level.
Only the two elders of the Zhao family were left to face the numerous enemy cultivators.
"The Zhao family is indeed quite good."
"They did not abandon offerings to those of different surnames."
Ji Yun stood at the stern of the flying boat, looking at the earth-shattering spiritual light behind him.
The elders of the Zhao family risked their lives.
The second-tier low-grade magic artifact they took out was equivalent to the fourth level of Qi Refining.
This is clearly a trump card.
However, although the power is much greater, the consumption of spiritual energy is also greater, and even a Qi Refining Level 3 cultivator cannot last long.
Once the spiritual energy within the body is depleted.
They will likely find it difficult to escape.
"Where should we go?"
"They're not chasing us, are they?"
"Fourth Uncle just told us to retreat to the lower level and follow the plan."
"We should turn back towards the Zhao family's direction; reinforcements can only arrive from there."
A debate broke out inside the boat.
Several members of the Zhao family, all immortals, piloted a flying boat, unsure of where to go next.
Those who are not of the same surname cannot interrupt the offering.
Chu Qinghe also walked to the stern of the flying boat and stood beside Ji Yun, gazing back.
But then a chaotic burst of spiritual light appeared.
A flying boat suddenly broke through the blockade of the Zhao family elders and headed straight for them.
"They're coming after us."
Chu Qinghe coldly reminded him, and took out a long sword from her storage bag and held it in her hand.
"Hurry down to the lower level."
"No, let's go to that scree area first!"
Zhao Jiaxian piloted the flying boat, fleeing in panic across the vast night sea.
There's a stretch of loose rocks ahead; hiding in it can delay the pursuit.
hum!
A loud roar.
A sword light shot into the sky; it was a first-grade high-level flying sword, slashing towards the flying boat.
"It's over!"
"We can't stop them."
"Let's split up and run!"
Seeing this scene.
The people inside the cabin gasped and panicked.
Most of them possessed life-saving magical artifacts of the same level, and at this moment they poured spiritual energy into them to activate them, causing the magical artifacts inside the cabin to radiate light.
But no one intercepted the flying sword.
Instead, they all used magical artifacts to protect themselves.
"They have magical artifacts but don't know how to use them; they don't even take turns using them to conserve spiritual energy."
"With only a Qi Refining Level 2 cultivation level, activating a Qi Refining Level 3 magic weapon, even if it can withstand this attack, how long can it last?"
"He's truly unfit for any important task."
Ji Yun shook his head inwardly, but did not intend to give them any pointers on how to defend themselves.
He turned around and looked around.
He and Chu Qinghe were of humble origin and did not have any high-grade magic weapons for self-defense.
Meanwhile, the two Zhao family immortals who had been harassing Chu Qinghe had already retreated to the bow of the boat, taken out their flying artifacts, and were planning to abandon the boat and run away.
As for Wu Xiuyuan and others.
They even managed to escape using their magical artifacts first.
Being pursued by a Qi Refining Level 3 cultivator means disaster is imminent, and everyone should flee.
"Hurry up!"
"What are you standing there for!"
Chu Qinghe suddenly stepped forward, grabbed Ji Yun, and fled out of the boat.
She saw that Ji Yun remained motionless.
Just like last time, he stood there stunned.
Even though I had many doubts in my heart, I couldn't care less about them at this moment.
So she grabbed Ji Yun by the collar again, pulled him onto the flying boat, and leaped off the flying boat on her sword.
"..."
Ji Yun was pulled into the night sky by her with one hand, her feet dangling in the air, swaying to one side of her long legs, looking quite disheveled, and remained silent for a moment.
This woman is kind-hearted.
It's just that it's a bit too unrefined.
boom!
The flying boat behind him was shattered by a single sword strike.
The opposing airship pursued them, unleashing several flashes of magic as it pierced the air.
The ten people split up and fled.
They formed groups of two or three, splitting into three or four teams, and ventured deep into the rubble.
On the flying boat behind them, six or seven cultivators also abandoned their boat and gave chase.
The two leading figures were Qi Refining Level 3 cultivators, while the other four or five were Qi Refining Level 2 cultivators.
But unexpectedly...
One of the Qi Refining Level 3 cultivators didn't pursue the Zhao family's immortal seedlings, but instead went straight for Chu Qinghe and Ji Yun.
"They came prepared, as expected."
"To know who is the most talented."
Ji Yun was not surprised.
He and Chu Qinghe broke through to the second level of Qi Refining at the age of eighteen and nineteen respectively, and their innate talent was far superior to that of the other immortal seedlings of the Zhao family.
In terms of potential threats, these two are the greatest.
Now that they are traveling together, they have naturally become each other's primary enemy.
"You run first!"
Chu Qinghe released Ji Yun, biting her lower lip, and said in a cold voice.
Ji Yun remained silent.
He took out a Wind Control Shadow Escape Talisman from his storage bag and slapped it on himself.
Then, with a backhand slap, he knocked Chu Qinghe unconscious and carried her away while she was off guard.
next moment.
A wisp of spiritual wind swirled around him, his figure flickering and shrouded in darkness, before he suddenly vanished into the pitch-black sea of night, hurtling swiftly towards the lower levels.
