Chapter 1274 Chase!
In the distance…
Eighth Venerable was struck dumb with fear.
Just now, Sixth Venerable had been right beside him. However, he saw with his own eyes how Fang Qiu knocked him into the distance with his palm.
The mighty force far exceeded his expectations. Before Sixth Venerable was sent flying by the enormous airflow, he had felt the massive stream of Qi of Heaven and Earth that pierced deeply into Sixth Venerable like a sharp thorn and shot out from his back.
That was not all.
Eighth Venerable was close to Sixth Venerable and saw what happened.
So, he also heard a smashing sound and felt a stir.
When Sixth Venerable was hit…
The terrifying and enormous flow of Qi of Heaven and Earth shattered his Dantian. With the destruction of his Dantian, the internal Qi in Sixth Venerable quickly dissipated.
Without the protection of his internal Qi, the horrifying Qi of Heaven and Earth rushed into his body, dashed around wildly, and smashed all his internal organs!
When he heard the sound, Eighth Venerable panicked and was scared.
His eyes which had been trained on Fang Qiu narrowed all of a sudden.
He was overwhelmed by a kind of unconcealed horror!
He was a guru, and as the Eighth Venerable of Nirvana Organization, his strength was much more powerful than that of ordinary gurus.
Eighth Venerable had a clear understanding of Sixth Venerable’s strength!
How impressive was Sixth Venerable?
How formidable was the one who ranked sixth in Nirvana Organization?
Just because Eighth Venerable understood all the key points, he found it difficult to believe everything that had taken place before his eyes.
How challenging would it be to kill a guru?
How difficult would it be to kill a guru as mighty as Sixth Venerable?
In the eyes of those masters in Wulin, it was impossible to kill such a formidable guru, who never needed to worry about his life in any case!
Before this…
Eighth Venerable thought that Seventh Venerable died because his plan had been exposed. Finally, those Wulin experts besieged and slaughtered him.
But now it seemed…
That was not what happened!
John Doe…
John Doe, who had killed many people from their organization, had the strength to kill Sixth Venerable with one blow!
This was truly too terrifying!
A thought suddenly appeared in Eighth Venerable’s mind.
“Did John Doe also kill Seventh Venerable?”
With this in mind…
Eighth Venerable’s heart trembled.
As soon as he stood up, he immediately turned around and fled frantically without a backward glance.
He did not want to die.
He knew that if he stayed any longer, he would die in John Doe’s hands, so he didn’t dare to hesitate. He could only turn around and flee for his life!
There…
Fang Qiu locked onto Eighth Venerable with his Divine Consciousness. When he found that Eighth Venerable had fled, he didn’t chase after him immediately. Instead, he stared at the middle-aged man in a red robe, who was lying motionless on the ground, as his life drained away, little by little.
“Woo, woo…”
As Sixth Venerable collapsed limply on the ground, the corners of his mouth trembled, and traces of blood trickled from his mouth. However, he did not even have the strength to spit out the blood. He could only tilt his head and let the blood flow out of his mouth.
“Do you… regret it?”
Fang Qiu looked at Sixth Venerable and asked, “Now, can you feel the real pain of those you think are living in misery?”
“Hee, hee hee…”
Sixth Venerable burst out laughing.
He grinned, and Fang Qiu saw his blood-stained mouth and teeth. Although he couldn’t conceal the pain in his eyes, he still said stubbornly and insanely, “If someone has to take the tough stuff, let me do it.”
Upon hearing that…
Fang Qiu shook his head and waved his right hand.
“Whizz!”
A beam of Sword Qi flashed and penetrated Sixth Venerable’s heart.
Fang Qiu didn’t bother to talk with this kind of person anymore.
At first…
Fang Qiu was curious if this person would regret his actions before he died. Perhaps, he could get a clear understanding of himself and Nirvana Organization. But he didn’t expect Sixth Venerable to have no regrets at all.
In that case, there was no need for such a person to live in this world.
Fang Qiu didn’t like torturing people, so he chose to kill them without hesitation.
Otherwise, he could have just left. Anyway, Sixth Venerable would not have been able to live for much longer.
“Sizzle!”
After slaying him, Fang Qiu moved to chase after Eighth Venerable in the opposite direction that he fled to.
Eighth Venerable was very cunning.
Initially, he escaped to the west, but after running wildly for more than ten kilometers, he changed his direction, took a very roundabout way, and began to run in the opposite direction.
If it had been a normal guru chasing after him, he might have managed to escape successfully in this way.
Unlucky for him…
It was Fang Qiu who was running after him!
Fang Qiu could always sense his precise position as long as Eighth Venerable, who was locked by his Divine Consciousness, was within a 50- kilometer radius around him.
Initially…
With Eighth Venerable’s fast speed, he could have run out of Fang Qiu’s detection range during this period, but he didn’t do that.
Smart people could inadvertently turn out to be victims of their own cleverness. He thought he was sharp enough to change his direction of escape, but by doing so, he delivered himself into Fang Qiu’s hands!
Fang Qiu activated his fighting capacity to the fullest.
Fang Qiu accelerated to the extreme and quickly caught up with him.
Here…
“Phew, phew…”
Eighth Venerable was still frantically fleeing.
He could have fled into the rainforest, but he didn’t do so. As he changed his direction constantly, he came to a place where the rainforest, desert, and grassland met.
This was the paradise of wild animals.
“I’m safe.”
When he arrived at the site and saw the large herds of bison, lions, and other animals in front of him, Eighth Venerable stopped and turned to look back. After making sure that John Doe wasn’t behind him, he breathed a long sigh of relief.
He had been running for a long time.
With John Doe’s rapid pace, he would have caught up with him if he had chased him from the beginning.
Otherwise, he would never find him!
Following an impulse…
Eighth Venerable panted heavily, rushed forward and squatted beside a stream to drink water. He completely ignored the lions lurking in the grass nearby to hunt!
“Swish.”
As soon as Eighth Venerable landed, the lions in the grass lurched to their feet.
However…
Eighth Venerable turned his head and cast a stern glance at them.
As a result, the whole pack of lions was scared off.
“If I weren’t in a hurry, I would eat you all!”
Staring at these lions, Eighth Venerable coldly threatened.
At this time…
“You will never have that chance.”
Suddenly, a voice sounded.
When he heard this, Eighth Venerable trembled violently and turned around as his eyes went blank.
Over there…
A figure had quietly walked up to him.
John Doe!
“You, you…”
Eighth Venerable pointed at Fang Qiu and said incoherently with a panic-stricken face.
“Swish.”
Fang Qiu didn’t want to talk with him. He waved the long sword in his hand and it shot forward like a sharp arrow and slashed at Eighth Venerable.
“Whoosh.”
Eighth Venerable moved hurriedly as he swerved to avoid the attack.
As he retreated…
A red glow suddenly emerged in Eighth Venerable’s panic-stricken eyes. Then he stared at the group of lions that had been scared away by him earlier.
His eyes swept over them.
All the eyes of the lions had also turned red.
“Roar…”
Suddenly…
The lions that had been waiting for the prey suddenly opened their mouths wide and roared angrily.
As they let out furious growls…
Fang Qiu saw all those lions turning to look at him.
“Eh?”
Seeing that the lions’ eyes glowed red, Fang Qiu was slightly stunned.
Then, he looked at Eighth Venerable.
He fled frantically. There were traces of red energy that surged from his eyes. Like spider silk, these threads of red energy connected him to those lions from a distance.
“Driving lions to fight?”
Fang Qiu was shocked.
He didn’t expect that Eighth Venerable’s most vital skill wasn’t his machete technique but his ability to control animals!
This was the first time Fang Qiu had encountered such a metahuman.
“It seems that he is also using Spiritual Force?”
He was puzzled.
Fang Qiu was ready to check it out.
But before he could carefully observe, those incomparably furious lions pounced on him crazily.
If they were guardian beasts, they might pose a threat to Fang Qiu. However, they were ordinary lions, though a guru was controlling them.
Fang Qiu flashed aside.
He zipped aside and smashed the heads of these lions and knocked them out in an instant.
Obviously…
Fang Qiu didn’t want to kill these lions. After all, they were protected animals and hardly a threat to Fang Qiu. Thus, there was no need to slaughter them at all!
On the other side…
Eighth Venerable had already fled far away by using the lions to hold Fang Qiu back.
As a guru, he knew these lions couldn’t stall Fang Qiu, and he had never imagined he would drive them to fight with Fang Qiu head-on. He only needed these lions to buy him some time to escape.
He was incredibly fast.
In the blink of an eye, Eighth Venerable dashed into the distance.
By the time Fang Qiu had knocked out the few lions, Eighth Venerable had already disappeared in his sight.
“He’s gone?”
Looking ahead, Fang Qiu’s eyebrows rose and he immediately mobilized his Divine Consciousness to investigate. He found no aura of Eighth Venerable within a radius of 50 kilometers.
This situation made Fang Qiu frown.
“Was there water over there?”
At this thought, Fang Qiu immediately chased in the direction that Eighth Venerable had slipped away to.
In the end…
After running for a short distance, Fang Qiu saw a very wide river with rapidly flowing water.
Fang Qiu squatted beside the river.
He dipped his hand into the river.
Immediately, he emitted his Divine Consciousness, which spread fast to the upper and lower reaches of the river.
With this probe…
He immediately found Eighth Venerable’s position.
He had jumped into the deepest part of the river to hide after he hid his aura.
Because he had concealed his aura and was covered by the water flow, his aura disappeared quickly from Fang Qiu’s perception.
However…
Whatever measures he took, it was impossible to escape the detection of Fang Qiu’s Divine Consciousness!
“Swish.”
With a wave of his right hand, Fang Qiu powered his way and stopped above Eighth Venerable’s hiding place. Then, he brandished his sword down to the water, and a beam of sword Qi immediately shot out.
The sword Qi entered the water but did not cause any stir!
“Humph.”
Fang Qiu snorted coldly, jumped directly into the river, and rushed toward Eighth Venerable underwater.
But as soon as he was in the water…
He saw Eighth Venerable sitting cross-legged at the bottom of the river, with a red glow in his eyes.
Meanwhile, many pairs of glowing red eyes suddenly appeared around him.
Upon closer inspection…
They were all crocodiles!
“Humph.”
Fang Qiu gave a cold grunt and brandished the long sword in his right hand. With one sword strike, he slashed the few crocodiles before him in half!
How could any ordinary crocodile withstand the strike from a recultivated guru?
But right at this moment…
“Boom!”
All of a sudden, there was a loud noise.
Fang Qiu turned his head to have a look.
Eighth Venerable swung his long machete wrapped in red-colored energy as he made a mad rush to slash him with all his might!
