Seeing this scene, Xiaohong's pretty face froze slightly, and she suddenly let out a delicate cry. The sound was like a bolt from the blue, shocking everyone.

"Yeah!"

Xiaohong's entire graceful body instantly burned with raging black flames, and the flames were dancing wildly like a black dragon with bared fangs and claws.

Then a clear phoenix cry resounded through the sky, and she turned into a huge fire phoenix. The fire phoenix spread its gorgeous wings, covering the sky and the sun.

The phoenix's eyes were filled with icy coldness, as if they could freeze everything in the world in an instant, and that icy gaze shot straight at the rushing wood spirit.

……

In another direction, the golden light transformed by Longdong was like a sharp lightning, moving forward without stopping and at an extremely fast speed.

Behind its escaping light, a golden wooden ape with hair all over its body that looked like dazzling red gold was chasing it relentlessly and majestically.

This wooden ape carries a huge black axe on its shoulder, with colorful light flowing around it, like colorful auspicious clouds surrounding it. It takes huge steps, each step covering a very long distance, and it is chasing Longdong in front of it like a meteor chasing the moon.

In the golden light, Longdong has lost the form of the black-clawed golden dragon, and his expression is solemn at this moment.

When he looked back at the extremely hideous and ferocious golden-haired wooden ape behind him, he had no intention of stopping to compete with it. Instead, he frantically urged the escape light to make it faster.

"Damn it! I've used the secret technique so many times and haven't had time to recover yet. I've already suffered some backlash. Facing a powerful enemy, I have no choice but to fight with all my might." Long Dong gritted his teeth and muttered to himself, his words filled with unwillingness and determination.

At this moment, his face became paler and paler, like a piece of white paper, without any blood, and his expression seemed extremely tired.

The next moment, Long Dong seemed to have made up his mind, and a fierce look flashed across his eyes, like a sharp light across the night sky. With one hand, he took out a black porcelain bottle from the storage bracelet in a smooth and flowing motion.

Then, Longdong took a deep breath, opened his mouth and swallowed a bean-sized pill without hesitation.

Almost instantly, Long Dong's face turned from pale to ruddy at a jaw-dropping speed, regaining its color. Not only that, his speed did not slow down, but it even increased, like a bright meteor, rushing forward.

Over a hundred miles ahead was the edge of the Black Leaf Forest. It seemed like the dawn of hope, waving at him.

……

A white rainbow flew through the air with a shrill scream, and a few miles behind it, a silver light was chasing after it.

Both of them flickered in and out, and were thousands of feet away in the blink of an eye.

Even though the white rainbow was unable to shake off the silver light for a moment, the silver light was also unable to catch up with the white rainbow immediately.

Two rays of escaping light passed by and rushed out of the forest area, leaving the Black Leaf Forest far behind.

……

On the other side, Yang Qian, dressed in a black robe, was standing in the air like a demon god, floating quietly.

His cold eyes looked coldly at the sword formation in front of him, and he saw countless three-colored sword threads crisscrossing and condensing into a ball of gorgeous and deadly light.

The three-color light instantly cut the last surviving silver-haired wood ape into countless pieces, and the bloody smell filled the air.

Yang Qian's expression remained calm. He then snorted softly, made a hand gesture, and clearly uttered the word "收".

Hundreds of silver, gold and blue sword lights suddenly burst out in the void in front, the light shot up into the sky, and then a crisp sword sound resounded through the sky.

Hundreds of sword shadows spun rapidly in the air and transformed into three thunder swords, which shot towards Yang Qian with endless power.

Yang Qian gave a slight shake of his sleeves, and the three flying swords disappeared in an instant like birds returning to their nests.

At this time, Yang Qian looked at the center of the original sword formation. There was still a lot of blood mist that had not dissipated, floating slowly in the air, like a dream.

Yang Qian's eyes flashed, and he thought secretly in his heart.

The formation formed by the three thunder swords is so powerful that it is three times more powerful than Han Li's Da Geng sword formation in the original novel.

The two purple-level wood spirits and four extremely troublesome silver wood apes who were trapped in his sword formation due to their carelessness had no power to resist the sharp sword threads released by the sword formation. They were easily killed without even a chance to struggle.

You should know that in the original novel, Qing Yuanzi used his Lianxu stage cultivation and the power of the Da Geng Sword Formation to fight against the Heti stage cultivator, while Master Lei Yao practiced the Five Thunders Technique and his strength was much stronger than Qing Yuanzi.

Yang Qian also practiced the Thunder Sword Formation, which only had three thunder swords, but it was definitely not much weaker than the Da Geng Sword Formation.

“If we can gather five flying swords with thunder attributes to form the Five Thunder Sword Formation, the power will definitely be several times stronger than the Da Geng Sword Formation! It’s a pity that there are still two types of divine thunder with different attributes that have not been found.” Yang Qian pondered silently in his heart, a look of deep regret revealed on his face, and he shook his head helplessly.

You know, these thunder-attributed flying swords are extremely rare, and each one is a peerless treasure.

To collect all five swords is as difficult as ascending to heaven.

Not only does it require great luck and coincidence, but it also requires going through countless hardships and obstacles in the vast universe to explore.

However, at this moment, Yang Qian did not stay here for even a moment.

He put the flying sword into his body and drove the escape light again. This escape light was like a bright meteor, heading straight to the edge of the forest, shooting away at an astonishing speed.

Half an hour later, Yang Qian flew away from the eerie forest like a bird out of a cage.

As soon as he left the forest a hundred miles away, Yang Qian did not hesitate at all. He quickly took out the Taiyi Huaqing Talisman from his arms and stuck it on his body without hesitation.

Suddenly, Yang Qian's figure seemed to merge into the void, completely becoming empty, and the whole person disappeared without a trace.

With such miraculous concealment means, even a Wood Clan expert at the Void Refinement level would have no chance of discovering any trace of him.

Yang Qian looked at the surrounding environment. The unfamiliar yet vibrant scene of the Wood Clan’s territory made him look at it a few more times.

Then, he began to recall the plot of the original novel in his mind as if playing a movie.

"There should be two orange-belt wood spirits chasing after me from behind. They are powerful beings at the level of Refining Void. I'd better avoid their sharp edge for the time being." Yang Qian murmured to himself, his voice full of caution and vigilance. He turned his head and glanced at the sky behind him with a sharp gaze, his eyes flashing with brilliance and consideration.

"Let's get out of here first."

After a moment, Yang Qian paused, as if he had made up his mind, and suddenly changed direction and continued to fly away. His actions were decisive and resolute, without the slightest hesitation. Not long after he left, two yellow lights came from the direction of the Black Leaf Forest behind him at lightning speed.

The two beams of light flashed by like meteors, and then circled around.

After the light faded, two wood spirits wearing orange and yellow belts appeared.

An existence at the level of refining emptiness.

The two people from the Wood Tribe are of different heights, one tall and one short, forming a stark contrast.

The tall ones have upright stature, while the short ones are slightly thin.

The auras emanating from the two wood spirits were strong and sharp, like two unsheathed swords, which made people shudder. They were one of the high-level wood spirits that followed the silver-level wood spirit and were temporarily trapped by Ye Ying's spell.

"What should we do? Lord Mu Rui might blame us." A female Mu Ling frowned and said worriedly. Her delicate face was full of anxiety and her eyes revealed a tangled look.

"What else can we do? These juniors in the Spiritualization Stage are definitely not ordinary cultivators from the ordinary demon and human races. Even Master Mu Rui was trapped by an unknown existence for a short period of time. It is normal that we can't catch up. I don't think Master Mu Rui would be so unreasonable." Another horse-faced man from the Wood Clan said indifferently and in a flat tone. His eyes were cold, and there was not much emotional fluctuation.

It seems that he is not too afraid of Mu Rui, the silver-level spiritual master in the clan.

"That's true. We didn't expect that a mere ant in the God Transformation Stage could actually have the support of a mysterious high-level cultivator in secret. This is something we could never have imagined." The female wood spirit sighed softly, and that sigh was full of helplessness and surprise.

“No matter what, this is not our fault. The two of us tried our best to chase this alien. But his magical powers were too powerful. With his cultivation level of only the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm, he achieved a speed of escape that was not inferior to that of a Void Refining Realm existence. Just based on this point, there are not many people in the entire human and demon races who can do it. It is estimated that this black-robed human cultivator, even among the three realms of the human race, is definitely not an unknown person.” The horse-faced Wood Clan man grinned and said with a slightly solemn expression.

"Maybe. What does this have to do with us? Let's think about how to explain it to Lord Mu Rui when we go back." The female Mu Ling shook her head with a worried look on her face.

Hearing this, the horse-faced Mu tribe man frowned, fell into deep thought, and began to think.

They circled around the place where Yang Qian had originally stayed for a while, but did not completely give up looking for Yang Qian's trace.

About an incense stick of time later, the two Void Refining Level Wood Spirits talked to each other in low voices, as if they were discussing countermeasures, their voices were low and urgent.

In the end, they were unable to find any clues about Yang Qian, so they had to return in disappointment. Their speed of departure was no slower than when they came.

After flying for more than ten thousand miles, Yang Qian was sure that he had completely escaped the pursuit of the Mu people.

"It's almost done. The two Refining Void-level wood spirits should have returned directly along the same route as described in the original novel. I'm afraid that old guy Mu Rui will take out his anger on them."

Yang Qian touched his chin, muttered a few words to himself, and a smile appeared on his face.

Then, he quickly made a hand gesture, and the runes on his body suddenly flashed, and his figure instantly returned to its original shape from the virtual state.

At the same time, a ball of spiritual light shot out from the body and turned into the Taiyi Huaqing Talisman again.

Yang Qian gently pinched the talisman between two fingers and shook it lightly. The talisman disappeared like a phantom.

Yang Qian raised his eyebrows and looked around sharply.

After making sure there was nothing unusual around him, he quietly landed on a small hill below.

His face was calm, without any change in expression, and he began to fall into careful thought.

Not long ago, the person who suddenly trapped the silver-level wood spirit was obviously an undercover agent sent to the Wood Clan by the human and demon clans.

However, this undercover agent has a very close relationship with the Ye family, a True Spirit family, and the various connections and conflicts of interest between them need to be carefully planned.

Yang Qian's mind was as fast as lightning. He thought about it quickly and felt that he had to find Ye Ying first.

As for how to find it?

Yang Qian's face moved slightly, and suddenly a strange look appeared at the corner of his mouth.

He suddenly shook his sleeves, and a shadow flew out. After circling in the air, the shadow turned into a palm-sized leopard lying on the ground.

It was the leopard-scaled beast.

The beast was staring at Yang Qian with a pair of lovely emerald green eyes, and it was making a few low sounds from its mouth, the sound like soft wind chimes.

Yang Qian remained silent. Suddenly, a flash of light appeared in his hand, and a blue magic disk appeared.

Then, he muttered something in a low and mysterious voice, and grabbed the empty space on the plate with one hand.

Suddenly, a ball of milky white light the size of a bean slowly flew out from the plate, like a light pearl, hovering half a foot above the plate, motionless and silent, as if frozen in the air.

Yang Qian let out a clear whistle and waved casually at the little beast.

But the leopard-scaled beast yawned loudly and did not move at all. Instead, it lay on the ground with its legs spread out, looking lazy and careless.

"You little guy, you're really beyond my control." Yang Qian smiled helplessly, a little speechless.

On the way to the Wood Tribe, he let this beast hang out with the Soul-Crying Beast for a few days. Unexpectedly, he also caught the Soul-Crying Beast's sleepiness problem.

However, now is not the time to argue with this beast about such trivial matters. Yang Qian gently touched the storage bracelet with one hand, and suddenly a small emerald green bottle appeared in his hand.

He opened the bottle stopper and poured out an unusually bright red pill that exuded a strange aroma, and threw it in the direction of the little beast.

Suddenly, the leopard-scaled beast, which was originally weak and listless, stood up its drooping ears and its eyes instantly burst into excitement the moment the abnormally bright red pill was thrown from Yang Qian's hand.

I saw it kick the ground with its hind legs, and its whole body flew out like an arrow, drawing a graceful arc in the air. Its mouth was wide open, and its sharp teeth flashed coldly in the sun.

The leopard scale beast twisted its body flexibly in the air and pounced accurately in the direction of the elixir. Its short and powerful front claws stretched forward, as if trying to grab the elixir.

Just as the pill was about to fall to the ground, the leopard-scaled beast successfully caught the pill with its mouth, then turned over beautifully and landed steadily on the ground.

"Gulu!"

The leopard scale beast didn't hesitate at all and swallowed the pill in one gulp. (End of this chapter)
