Sovereign to Immortality

Chapter 319 – Escape

Just as the Sunset Ridge was about to collapse into the huge pit, an arm suddenly extended out from within the soil and rocks. The arm searched around for a while, and finally found a supporting point, then forcefully pulled out half of its body from the soil.

His body shook violently, causing countless dirt to fall to the ground. Then, with both hands supporting the ground, the lower half of his body was pulled out as well.

After crawling out from the ground, this person seemed to have used up all of his strength. After lying on the ground for a while, he slowly got up from the ground, spitting out a mouthful of black blood with a “Wah”, then staggered away from the Sunset Ridge.

This person was none other than Yang Junshan who was previously trapped in the cave. When the fire in the cave erupted and the cave collapsed, he used the Earth Escape Technique which he had trained half of his body as the price, and finally emerged from the ground with great difficulty. However, he was already heavily injured, and if not for his body being at the peak of the martial arts realm, he probably would not be able to continue right now.

However, even though he had escaped underground, he knew in his heart that he was not out of danger. The magma from the earth fire that he had seen earlier in the underground cave would sooner or later gush out, and this place would soon turn into a sea of fire!

Indeed, when Yang Junshan and the others arrived at the foot of the hill where and the others were hiding at, they stomped their feet violently, and amidst a deafening explosion, countless pillars of fire shot up into the sky.

At this time, Yang Junshan, who was already out of oil, suddenly felt a surge of strength from who knows where, and his entire person scuttled more than thirty meters away, looking like a fierce tiger running, continuously distancing himself from Sunset Ridge, who had already turned into a volcano erupting with lava.

After gradually leaving the range of the volcanic eruption, Yang Junshan did not return to the Mengyu County along the road. Instead, he turned around and headed east, entering the Tuo Wu Shan.

The eruption of the Sunset Ridge volcano continued, it was getting more and more violent, the area of about 10 li was enveloped in the rain of fire, the raging flames burnt the entire area intile of scorched earth.

The place where Yang Junshan was hiding wasn’t too far away from the range of the Sunset Ridge’s Earth Fire. He could even clearly feel the surrounding temperature rising, and the surrounding vegetation began to gradually wither due to the evaporation of water.

The gushing of the earth fire lasted for an entire day and night. The crater where the Sunset Ridge had fallen had already overflowed with scarlet lava, and when Yang Junshan, whose face was still pale, came out from his hiding place, although the gushing of the earth fire had already stopped, one could still see from afar that the direction of the Sunset Ridge was completely covered by a scarlet light.

At this time, Yang Junshan had already recovered most of the spirit force in his body, but due to the injuries in his body, he could at most unleash seventy percent of his strength.

The Sunset Ridge changed greatly. The people who were previously exploring the ruins all retreated, but after the earth fire stabilized, there would be people who would quickly rush over to investigate. At this moment, the most urgent thing was to return to the Xishan Village.

Yang Junshan took a deep breath, the sound was not loud or sharp, but it spread far and wide, as though it was an agreed secret signal.

They walked down the mountain with familiarity within the Tuo Wu Shan, and then turned around and looked in the direction of the Sunset Ridge, only to suddenly discover that on both sides of the curtain of light, a black mass of clouds had risen up into the sky.

This was very strange!

Passing through the Wangshan Town, Yang Junshan rushed in the direction of the Wasteland Town. When he passed by a desolate area, Yang Junshan suddenly felt a sense of danger, and his entire person suddenly threw himself forward towards the left side. He felt a sharp chill pass by his right shoulder, and then, his clothes instantly ripped apart, as a line of red blood appeared on his skin.

“Eh?” From an unknown location, a surprised voice suddenly came out, it was clear that Yang Junshan had been the first one to dodge the attack and surprise the attacker.

However, Yang Junshan immediately recognized the identity of the person who attacked him, the Ghost Cultivators who had mysteriously appeared within the cave underground!

“Brat, you have some skill. A mere baleful cultivator with the third stage of martial arts realm was actually able to dodge my attack twice in a row. Interesting, interesting!”

A cultivator dressed in black, covered in a layer of faint black fog, suddenly appeared at the edge of a forest that was 30 meters away.

“Ghost Cultivators!” Yang Junshan coldly stood up from the ground, the Mountain Monarch Seal in his hands flew above his head, the magnetic light drooped down and protected Yang Junshan.

“You actually know my identity? Who told you?”

The strange cultivator’s identity was immediately exposed by Yang Junshan, the faint black mist around him suddenly surged, the ruthless Qi pouncing on him, the magnetic light in front of him was suppressed by the invisible force, and caved in three feet.

“If you want people to not know, then do it yourself!”

Yang Junshan revealed a cold smile, but his body was desperately channeling the power of soil.

“You’re stalling for time!”

The figure suddenly disappeared within the black mist, causing Yang Junshan’s expression to change. From the forest behind Ghost Cultivators, a world-shaking tiger roar came out, a faint shadow suddenly appeared 30 feet away from Yang Junshan, a short sword was already thrusting towards him.

The Snake-Necked Bow instantly appeared in his hand. Yang Junshan used his fastest speed to shoot an arrow, and with a ding, the arrow that Ouyang Xulin had specially made for him, along with the Snake-Necked Bow, had a power that was not weaker than a middle grade enchanted weapon.

Yang Junshan did his best to dodge but he was still unable to escape the assassination attempt of the Ghost Cultivators. The magnetic light, which could have been used to suppress and control magic tools, was also broken.

A clear cry came out. Although the Mountain Monarch Seal had finally blocked this attack, Yang Junshan was pushed by a huge force, causing his entire body to be pushed back a few meters. By the time he managed to stabilize his body, the injuries within his body had already been moved, and blood was flowing out from the corner of his mouth.

“Tiger demon!” The Ghost Cultivators who had injured Yang Junshan, did not immediately take action. Instead, as if he was frightened, his figure flashed and disappeared from the forest behind him. His face revealed a look of bewilderment as he looked at the forest and Yang Junshan who was on the other side.

Even though Yang Junshan wanted to retreat, he didn’t dare make any movements at this time. For a moment, the Ghost Cultivators, Yang Junshan and the Hu Niu hiding in the forest all quieted down, only leaving behind the soft sound of the cool breeze passing through the forest.

The Ghost Cultivators who was originally facing a great enemy suddenly relaxed now, his face revealing a ridiculing look, Yang Junshan thought to himself that this was bad, and did his best to maintain his calm expression.

Although having the help of the tiger demon is outside of my expectations, I believe that Mountain Lord has just become a Spiritual Demons Cultivator. As long as he is in the late stage of Spiritual Demons, with his restraint towards the Spirit Race, would he hide in the forest and not dare to come out?

Yang Junshan forced himself to calm down, and said coldly: “You can give iry!”

“I’m about to give iry!”

The Ghost Cultivators laughed out loud and pounced towards the forest, saying: “Although the tiger demon restrains my Ghost Cultivators, if I were to kill this tiger demon and use it to train myself, I will definitely improve further and become a judge in one fell swoop!”

Hu Niu was currently only in the early stages of Spiritual Demons, so how could she be a match for the peak of the Fierce Demon Realm Ghost Cultivators? While he sucked in a long breath, he notified Hu Niu to escape, and at the same time ordered the Mountain Monarch Seal to drop down from the forest, preventing the Ghost Cultivators from chasing after Hu Niu.

“Then I’ll kill you first!” The Ghost Cultivators was not surprised by Yang Junshan’s actions, he took the chance to charge towards him, but he did not use his Ghost Clan’s ability to hide himself, and actually wanted to fight with Yang Junshan head on.

“Even if my secret art has been destroyed, a baleful cultivator like you is still not a match for me!”

The magnetic light was instantly cut apart, only to see Yang Junshan extend his hand out in front of his body, releasing a bizarre wave that struck directly at him. Ghost Cultivators’s face changed, the short sword in his hand cut out, and a metallic sound came out, a spark flashed on the blade, but the opponent did not have a weapon in sight.

“Good divine ability, but that’s it!”

Even though Yang Junshan’s spirit of breaking mountain nearly made Ghost Cultivators suffer, the moment he blocked the attack, Ghost Cultivators’s figure flashed again and he was already behind Yang Junshan. The short sword was pierced with distractions, and even if Yang Junshan wanted to dodge, he was already too powerless to do so!

“You dare to kill my son, you’re courting death!”

A loud roar suddenly exploded in mid air, the flickering sparks brought up a long and thin pillar of smoke as it flew towards Ghost Cultivators’s back.

At this time, although the Ghost Cultivators’s short sword could stab into Yang Junshan’s back, the person attacking from behind could definitely heavily injure him in one go.

In that moment, Ghost Cultivators made his decision. He turned around and threw his dagger, which clashed with the flame and smoke pillar. Unexpectedly, there was the sound of metal colliding again, it seemed like they were evenly matched, but the smoke continued to rush towards Ghost Cultivators.

Unexpectedly, there was another tiger’s roar, and the figure that had just turned illusory was expelled once again. When he turned around to look, he saw that Yang Junshan had already hidden in front of the forest, and was reunited witainbow-colored tiger that was around ten feet long.

In that moment, Yang Tiangang had already flown over. The flying magic tool in mid air that carried a bit of fire and smoke landed in his hand, it was his High quality magical equipment Wind Grinding Copper Jade Hay Smoke Rod.

Facing off against cultivators of the same cultivation level, Ghost Cultivators was usually at a disadvantage. However, he was not afraid of Yang Tiangang, who was a fourth stage Pure Qi Cultivator, but with the help of the Tiger Demon which restrained his innate abilities and an unreasonable Demonic Qi Cultivator, Ghost Cultivators knew that he would be in trouble this time!
