Chapter 671
(Unedited)
…
Four versus one and the person they are fighting against is a powerless peasant immortal. However, the four knew not to underestimate their opponent. They have seen him fight while watching from far away and the way he fought against those shadow beasts is something that rivals their strength.
Shin Jiao did not relax as he already knew the danger he is in right now. Without hesitation, he suddenly threw the bag he is carrying to the side. Those are his food for a week. He dare not let it be destroyed in this fight.
After removing the backpack the four people noticed a strange black armor on his body under his peasant robe. They all stare at Shin Jiao in confusion. They didn't know what that black thing is, but were immediately on guard.
Taking out their own weapons, three of the people surrounding Shin Jiao prepares to battle. Meanwhile, the only female of the group did not join in.
"What are you doing, Ni'il Jo? We have to get this peasant…" Kevin Gart reacted suddenly while glaring at the woman who didn't draw her weapon.
Ni'il Jo just showed Kevin Gart a sneer on her beautiful angelic face. She knew what this guy is thinking and has already felt his extreme killing intent a while ago. She is interested in the young man and also wanted to take him back into her clan, but she will not do it with force.
For 200 years she has been staying in the immortal land and in her clan. However, she is still unable to reach the next stage of true physique and be able to don a piece of golden armor. The next stage of the true physique is equal to a heavenly nascent realm cultivator. However, in the immortal land, it would only show as a gauge which is around a power level of 80 at the minimum.
But ever since she saw that guy using those moves and harvesting plants as he knew them like the back of his head, she knew that she has discovered someone with a rare talent of an alchemist. A peasant alchemist is still an alchemist. If she could take him to the clan, then the clan would surely proper.
Their ranking would rise up and she could improve her power through him and his future pills.
With this in mind, she has already decided to help this guy.
However, the problem is those three who are vent on robbing the guy of his treasures. They wanted to slay the chicken and could not wait for the golden egg.
Well, she could not blame them for their foolishness. The three did not take too long to achieve the true nascent realm body as their clans have a direct connection with their own planets. Plus these three are rejects of their clans.
"The clans needed talents, so I suggest the three of you think twice before doing what you are planning to do." Ni'il Jo said while crossing her hand on her chest which made those full mounds bulge further.
The three were a little taken aback. But they are already determined to get their hands on those energy cores and the knowledge in this guy's mind.
"You speak like that because you belong to a clan that values you. For us, this is a great boon. You... I advise you not to interfere…" the guy standing beside the hound said with a sneer on his handsome face.
"Well, I just wanted to remind you three. Even if you kill him, I will still take him with me to my clan… I have already decided on that."
Hearing his words, the commander of the group suddenly shifted his gaze towards her.
"I already have my sight on him… you can just wait your turn." He said in a cold tone.
"Hihi… Commander Gi, I did not want to interrupt you with your plans, please… I won't stand in your way." She replied while taking a step back.
When the three saw her action, they all relaxed a bit. This only means that Ni'il Jo will not join the fight. Although they are confident to fight against her, what they fear is her ability. She might not look like it, but her knife technique and lightning Dao is terrifying.
With her not joining the fight, Shin Jiao feels that his burden was lightened a little bit. But still, he knew that the three is a tough nut to crack.
With their weapons drawn, the three silver armored immortal suddenly went to offensive and was about to go on an attacking formation.
However, before they could do anything, Shin Jiao suddenly sneered at them.
"Do you think I'm a fool to fight you head-on? Hehe…" Shin Jiao thought as he suddenly dashed to the forest away from the group.
His action stunned the four people a bit, but then the three suddenly recovered and chase after him.
Meanwhile, Ni'il Jo walked towards the backpack that Shin Jiao threw and pick it up. She then jumps up a large tree branch and created a comfortable resting place for her.
"Hmm… I guess these things are edible…" she muttered as she takes out some of the fruit-looking objects in the bag.
She takes out a red circular fruit and carefully sniffs on it. She did not smell anything bad, and then she took out a knife and carefully peels a portion of the red fruit-like object. However, she soon discovers that her knife is unable to penetrate more than one layer of the object.
"I knew it! This is like what those people said in the town. This is not edible… but did her harvest it as a food?" she thought as confusion could be seen in her beautiful eyes.
Meanwhile, in the forest, the three people chasing after Shin Jiao discovers that his speed is on par with theirs.
"Don't falter, this is just temporary. He ate that fruit which causes paralysis. I don't know why he could still move, but he would soon fall paralyzed on the ground." said the young man with the hound running beside him.
"We'll just have to wait then," said Commander Gi with a smirk.
Meanwhile, Shin Jiao who has deliberately slowed his speed suddenly thought of an idea. He suddenly made his muscles bulge a little as if trying to exert much effort, and then his speed gradually increased.
"Damn it, he is trying to burn his immortal essence…" shouted Kevin Gart upon seeing Shin Jiao's action.
"Are you stupid?! He is a peasant. He didn't know how to use his immortal essence yet. Plus I am guessing that he is also unable to use the universe energy in the air, that's why he relies on those tools."
Upon hearing the words from the commander, the two showed a knowing look on their faces. This only means that the guy is using his natural skill unconsciously. However, this way he would soon reach his limit and would surely be soon paralyzed.
However, they soon discover that the distance between them is increasing. But the three didn't bother with it.
"Let him go ahead, we have the hound to trace him. It would be a nice challenge for us to hunt him. Hehe…" the guy beside the dog suddenly slowed down and soon halted his running.
The commander also followed suit, but Kevin Gart did not. He exerted his effort to chase after that rogue peasant.
"Let's follow at a normal pace." Commander Gi said as he continues walking towards the direction where Shin Jiao has run to.
Shin Jiao on the other hand was a bit happy with this result. He was actually relying on those people's arrogance for his little plan to succeed.
And soon a figure was able to catch up to him.
"Do you think you can run away from me?" shouted Kevin Gart in anger.
"I will make sure that you will suffer a fate worse than death. Those who offend me will not escape my wrath!"
Hearing those words, Shin Jiao knew that this guy bore hatred against him for some reason he didn't know. But he didn't care, why would he ask for the other party's reason? If he won, then he could ask those, but if he loses, then no matter what reason the other party has, he will still suffer.
Since that guy wanted him to suffer, then he should not blame him for wanting the same, right?
As the two chases each other deeper in the forest, Shin Jiao has already expanded his psychokinesis. Within 50 meters he did not detect anything and from the looks of it, those other two did not chase after him like crazy.
Shin Jiao did not hesitate and suddenly took out a fist-size ball from his pocket. Then he infused it with a stone making the ball look like a simple stone.
Shin Jiao suddenly began gathering stones while running. After taking around ten stones he began throwing it towards the chasing figure behind him.
Swoosh!
Kevin Gart nimbly dodges the stone and this made the distance between them suddenly increase a little.
He notices that the stone is just a distraction. Then he saw another stone flying towards him. With a wave of his sword, that stone was cut into half. And that did not slow him down.
With a sneer on his face, he tried to run faster. But then, another two stones flew towards him. He slices the other while he let the other stone hit his shoulder.
He just wanted to test if the stone contains energy. But he discovers that those are really just distractions. He even noticed the suddenly panicked expression on the face of that rogue peasant.
As if injected with chicken blood, he began to use his energy this time. He knew that the fellow is already at his wit's end, that's why he is throwing these useless things.
As he suddenly drew closer, he saw the expression of Shin Jiao in a panic, and then many stones came flying directly towards him.
With a sneer on his handsome face, Kevin Gart did not bother with those stones as he just let them hit his strong body.
However, he soon discovers his folly. This is because he realized that a black sludge-like thingy suddenly appears on his body making him feel stiff.
Then he saw Shin Jiao stopping suddenly. Kevin Gart did not have time to stop as his body is already as stiff as a piece of board. He suddenly saw the flat of a stone blade coming closer towards his face and an evil grin from the young man he was chasing.
Then he blacked out.
