Fang Yu flees into the wilderness with Ding Hui, pursued by four powerful figures. He evades them by traveling off-road, but encounters a Stone Demon. The pursuers, confident in their eventual capture, discuss their complex relationships and ulterior motives for the joint hunt. They are closing in on their targets, and the Nanyuan Ancestor prioritizes capturing Ding Hui.

This single glance caused the boy’s expression to change dramatically in an instant.

As if he suddenly realized the huge gap in strength between himself and the four of them, or perhaps he saw something extremely terrifying, the boy’s pupils abruptly shrunk in a split second.

"Wood Blood..."

A certain tense, low growl came from the boy’s direction.

In the next moment, enormous blood sacs suddenly swelled up from within the boy’s body.

The Nanyuan Ancestor’s face immediately changed.

"Not good! He wants to..."

"Three Thousand Escape!!!"

Boom!!!

The blood sacs exploded, producing a deafening sound.

The immense potential energy pushed the bodies of the two targets wildly away at such speed that when the four present finally reacted and wanted to intercept, they couldn’t even catch a glimpse of the other’s shadow.

Fast!

So fast!

This strange escape technique suddenly elevated the opponent’s speed to a point where even they couldn’t keep up!

Fortunately, the opponent seemed to be sprinting straight in one direction, leaving a trail behind, so they didn’t need to search for the opponent’s location; they could simply follow the trail!

"Such fast escape speed!"

"Quite something," the Lu Family Ancestor said coldly.

"What a decisive judgment! Such a quick self-harming escape technique! It’s a pity he doesn’t want to join my Shu Family. Otherwise, with some cultivation, he could have a place in my Shu Family in the future!"

"Stop pitying talents, the person has already run out of sight. If we don’t catch up, and those two kids escape from us four old guys, we will be laughed at when we get back."

The four of them, though momentarily amazed by the self-destructive blood escape technique, still showed a sense of relaxation and ease in their words, seemingly not worried at all.

That’s because this kind of blood escape technique often has massive drawbacks, cannot be used continuously, and only allows one to escape within a certain range.

Or, to put it another way, to have someone practice such a flawed Cultivation Technique to such a level, reaching a blood escape speed that they couldn’t even match, is truly a ’talent.’

"Let’s continue pursuing, that guy should already be on the ground exhausted," one suggested.

"Shall we let Nanyuan Brother take the lead?"

The Nanyuan Ancestor glanced at the Shu Family’s Ancestor, Shu Zhenjie, with a few more hints of cold killing intent in his eyes.

Meanwhile, someone was already stepping forward.

It was the cold-hearted Lu Family Ancestor.

Seeing the Lu Family Ancestor take the lead, with a figure that was almost blending into the night and disappearing.

The remaining three couldn’t help but exchange a glance and then all began to follow using their movement techniques.

The quiet dark night made the movements of the four ancestors traveling extremely conspicuous.

And more noticeable than their movements was the momentum created by Fang Yu’s previous Three Thousand Wood-Blood Jutsu.

The earth-shattering loud noise made all the nearby demons pay attention to this side.

The weak demons, upon being frightened, started escaping and fleeing afar.

However... the strong demons, in contrast to these weak ones, rushed towards the source of the commotion at high speed, ready to feast!

"What thing!"

The head of an ox-headed demon monster was cut down.

The escort of the four great ancestors at this moment made those great demons, which would be troublesome even for a Wood Realm Warrior, seem completely non-threatening!

However... in a strong hand, there is always a stronger one!

As a peculiar undulating fox howl resonated through the silent night.

And after this sound fell, as if in response to the howl, similar fox howls echoed from far and near from various positions.

The four great ancestors all simultaneously changed their expressions.

"This is the unique howl of the Illusion Fox Demon!"

"When did that thing come near our Da Liang City!?"

"...perhaps it’s just an avatar."

"A fine ’perhaps,’ yet if it truly is the true Illusion Fox Demon? And even if it’s just avatars of the Illusion Fox Demon like the Illusion, True Shadow, and Silver Shadow, in large numbers, they are quite troublesome."

The Illusion Fox Demon is quite a unique type of demon.

It has many avatars and likes to toy with people’s minds.

It seems that manipulating the human mind brings it certain benefits.

And what instills the most fear is that each of the Illusion Fox Demon’s avatars possesses the ability to pull people into their own unique illusion realms, turning whatever they attack or defend against inside the illusion as real! And... everything can also be false!

Therefore, theoretically, even just the avatar of the Illusion Fox Demon possesses the possibility to kill these deathless seniors!

While no other low-level demons or lower-level martial artists have such an immense gap in strength, yet can still pose a deadly threat to these strong individuals!

This is because the illusion realms of the Illusion Fox Demon are too special! Too unique!

And this is only a low-level fox demon avatar; if one encounters the true form of the Illusion Fox Demon...

Then it’s reversing black and white, flipping hands to create rain, randomly changing the boundary of reality, manipulating all of a human’s five senses, perceptions, all recognitions, at their whim!

Such a great demon, despite not walking the path of the Buddha Demon, with its unique demon bloodline innate power alone, can contend with any existence!

"It might not be it! It could just be something like a Jade-faced Fox Demon," the Nanyuan Ancestor analyzed in a deep voice.

However, all three others looked difficult, unwilling to delude themselves.

They have lived so long and know better than anyone if there were particularly powerful great demons in the Thunder City and Da Liang City area.

This call would not be wrong; it surely belongs to the Illusion Fox Demon!

It’s just unclear if it’s only an avatar or the true form nearby.

If it’s just avatars, the four of them can handle it, not as easily as other demons, but the nature of the Illusion Fox Demon means a slight negligence and they could be injured by an illusory avatar.

For a brief moment, the four had fallen silent, exchanging glances.

Regarding whether to continue pursuing Fang Yu and the other person, they each had their considerations.

Rumble!!

Suddenly, from far ahead, a series of rumbling sounds rolled over.

As if a mountain as heavy as a thousand tons was rolling toward them!

In that moment, the four ancestors suddenly realized something.

Though Fang Yu’s Three Thousand Wood-Blood Jutsu caused a tremendous sound, presenting a massive security risk to himself.

At the same time, the noise Fang Yu caused stayed at the original spot.

Which was the very place where the four great ancestors were now situated.

Chasing all the way there is to pursue the source of the sound, and along the way, who knows how many demons drawn by the noise they must confront!

And daring to come following the momentum, which among them isn’t a ferociously powerful great demon?

For a brief moment, this careful little plan truly stuck it to them four ancestors.

Because this is evidently an open scheme.

Belonging to walking into the trap! It’s a gamble, calling out both sides’ courage, confidence, luck!

If they were intimidated, retreating from the overwhelming demons in the night, it would count as Fang Yu’s win.

Conversely, persisting with thoughts of mutual destruction and continuing the pursuit, Fang Yu would have to face the relentless chase of the four great ancestors, and the encirclement of powerful great demons! Certain death!

"What a bold junior, daring to use demons to deter us."

"Ordinary demons we can ignore, but with a special great demon like an Illusion Fox Demon appearing tonight... honestly, I don’t think they can survive."

Yes, even the four great ancestors found the situation somewhat tricky and didn’t believe Fang Yu could survive it.

Among the four, some desired to gain Fang Yu and the other person, while others merely wanted them to die.

Thus, the Nanyuan Ancestor was the first to make a decision.

"Everyone, the kid lured such a number of demons and is rushing madly in the wild; even if we do not intervene, he is already doomed to die. Therefore we have no reason to continue the pursuit. I don’t know what you think, but I am ready to head back."

Once the Nanyuan Ancestor finished, the other three couldn’t help but exchange a glance.

It was hard to gauge the truth in what the old creature was saying.

If they left now and came back later to rescue the person, playing a trick right under their nose, they’d be fools.

But conversely, if there wasn’t so much beating around the bush, then the present decision seemed wise.

"Count me in too; I’ll head back home," the Yi Family Ancestor was the first to express, smiling as he spoke.

Left was only the Shu Family Ancestor and the Lu Family Ancestor.

The two exchanged a glance, engaging in silent calculations.
