After consuming the Breath Severing Pill, Xiang Nan was like a dead person, unable to be sensed by anyone, just like a lifeless sculpture.
He was sent flying into the sky, his entire body wrapped in mud, which was hard to tell with the naked eye.
The old monster flew and bombarded the earth, but he didn't notice Xiang Nan hiding in the mud.
After landing on the ground, Xiang Nan lay motionless in the mud. He slowly opened his eyes and looked out from the shallow part of the mud.
The old monster was hovering in mid-air, his pair of eyes constantly scanning the surroundings.
He muttered to himself, "The aura of the little beast of the Nature's Nature Sect clearly disappeared in this vicinity."
"If it wasn't for him flying out of my range at an extremely fast speed, he would have used some sort of method to dodge my perception."
"Mm ... He already had some sort of method to speed up his movements a hundred miles away. It seems that this time, it should be the same."
"No one can escape from my perception. He must have run even farther."
After saying that, the old monster lowered his body and suddenly turned into a strong beam of light and headed east.
His speed was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, he had already disappeared at the junction of heaven and earth.
Xiang Nan maintained a high degree of vigilance. He did not come out of the dirt, but continued to lie on the ground and wait slowly. 𝗳𝓇ee𝓌𝚎𝚋𝓃o𝚟𝘦𝚕 - 🅽🅽novel
Very quickly, the side effects caused by his use of Lightning Evasion passed. Slowly, another ten minutes passed.
He was still lying in the mud, and if he wasn't very confident, he wouldn't have come out so easily.
"Old monster Heaven Scryer is full of tricks. Especially since this person is a military general, he is even more adept at using tricks." Xiang Nan narrowed his eyes and thought to himself.
He lay in the mud, motionless in the silent darkness, not even moving a finger.
Half an hour had passed since he had been lying here.
"Perhaps we've really gone far. It's been so long. It's almost time to come out." A big stone in Xiang Nan's heart landed on the ground. He intended to adjust his breathing and hurry out to look for the cargo ship.
But at this moment, less than two meters away from Xiang Nan, two bubbles suddenly appeared in the mud.
Xiang Nan's heart skipped a beat. He slowly rolled his eyes and looked at the bubble.
Under this gaze, Xiang Nan's entire heart was raised to his throat.
Holy shit! It was that Heaven Scrying Old Monster!
The old monster was lying beside Xiang Nan. The distance between the two of them was too close!
It turned out that he had said to himself that he didn't believe that anyone could escape his perception just now. He had purposely told Xiang Nan to listen. He didn't know if Xiang Nan was hiding nearby, so he used words to cheat him first.
At this moment, the old monster was lying flat in the mud with his eyes closed, earnestly sensing the Yuan Qi fluctuations in his surroundings. He did not know that the target he was looking for, Xiang Nan, was lying beside him.
Xiang Nan was shocked. When did this old thing come back? He had clearly seen him fly into the distance with his own eyes, but he had never expected that he would always be by his side.
This distance was very, very dangerous. As long as the old monster used his hand to pull at his side, it was very likely that he would touch Xiang Nan.
Xiang Nan remained motionless, doing everything he could to make his mood less tense. He slowly relaxed himself and kept an eye on Old Monster Heaven Scryer's actions.
Another ten minutes passed. It had already been forty minutes since Xiang Nan laid in the mud, and the effect of the Breath Severing Pill had reached its limit in twenty minutes.
Finally, the old monster sighed and stood up from the mud.
"Am I really mistaken?" The old monster trembled slightly, and all the mud on his body was immediately thrown clean.
He rubbed his chin and muttered to himself, "Could it be that there really is some kind of movement technique in this world that can allow a Returning Origin Realm martial artist to escape three hundred kilometers away in an instant?"
"If that's the case, then I've been hiding here for so long. I'm afraid that the little beast of the Haoran Sect has already escaped very far. It's really a step in the wrong direction."
Old Monster Heaven Scryer sighed. He took out a total of five signaling orders and said to them, "Xiang Nan is heading east. The five of you must hide your auras and search slowly. This person has a lot of tricks, so you must be careful."
After saying that, he ran out of the martial arts messengers. Those messengers turned into five streaks of light and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
"Originally, I wanted to personally capture that little bastard and go to the The Profound Sky Sect to receive a reward. Now, I'm going to give it to someone else. I'm really unwilling."
The old monster shook his head and flew east.
Another ten minutes passed before Xiang Nan emerged from the mud. After shaking off the soil on his body, he flew west to welcome the cargo ship.
At this moment, Xiang Nan's heart skipped a beat for no reason!
Immediately after, he felt that his body was instantly tightened by a force. A powerful force of the heavens transformed into a rope that tightly bound him to the spot.
"What?" Xiang Nan's heart sank.
"Hehe, I got it!"
Xiang Nan raised his head to look. In the dark clouds in the sky, a figure descended with a whoosh, transforming into a middle-aged woman.
There were actually two people!
Mantis catching cicadas was behind them, and Xiang Nan had never expected that the other party actually had two Heaven-peeping Realm experts! This woman was probably a Heaven Scrying Fourth Stage expert.
It was extremely difficult for a low-level martial artist to escape the perception of a high-level martial artist. On the contrary, it was easy for a high-level martial artist to escape the perception of a low-level martial artist.
"Little brat! You can do it. Your calm is strong enough." The middle-aged woman laughed loudly, "You almost got me through."
The male Heaven-Scrying Old Monster flew away and turned into a ray of light from afar, instantly returning to Xiang Nan's side.
Evidently, he was fooled by Xiang Nan, and his expression was extremely ugly at this moment.
The middle-aged woman smiled and said, "Old man, this brat has always been lying beside you, but you actually didn't notice him."
"If you weren't here, this little bastard would have really run away. I was completely tricked by him just now and was ready to go to the east to find him, " the old monster said with a gloomy face.
The middle-aged woman said, "This little bastard is very deep, and his determination is astonishing. Letting this kind of person live is a great threat to us."
"Even if you don't want to, you can't kill him. We have to send him to the The Profound Sky Sect, " the old monster said.
"In that case, how about we split the reward equally between you and me?"
The middle-aged woman thought for a moment and said, "Alright, you and I will bring him to the The Profound Sky Sect to ask for a powerful cultivation technique."
"At that time, the two of us will definitely increase in strength. Hahahaha."
The two of them were talking when Xiang Nan suddenly spoke.
"Two old monsters of the Heaven Scryer Realm are truly shameless to surround a young man at the fifth level of the Origin Realm."
The middle-aged woman didn't care and laughed loudly, "Shameless? What is shame? How much is it worth?"
"If you want to blame us, then blame yourself for not having enough cultivation. Could it be that you can blame us for being too high?"
Xiang Nan took a deep breath and said, "What you said is correct. Since that's the case, I don't need to show mercy to you?"
