Chapter 2279: Chapter 2277: [Aren’t You Tired, Old Man?]

Rumble!

In the East State of the Barbaric Forbidden Land, there was a sudden explosion, and a Magic Cube-like cage appeared in the sky, with wisps of Chaos Qi draping down. Within that Chaos Qi, two figures could be faintly seen. However, very soon, this Magic Cube-like cage, along with the shadows of the man and woman, disappeared without a trace!

"What was that just now? Why did it look like a cage?"

"No, to be precise, it’s a Magic Cube!"

"What was that aura that fell down? It felt like it was suffocating!"

"Yeah, there seemed to be a man and a woman inside..."

"Why did it suddenly disappear again?"

The appearance of a Magic Cube Cage carrying a man and a woman, suddenly appearing in the sky above the East State of the Barbaric Forbidden Land and then quickly disappearing, left the martial artists of East State who witnessed the scene unable to resist discussing it intensely. The aura that had suddenly appeared was incredibly powerful, giving a suffocating sensation!

At this time, inside the Holy Heaven Prison, Ye Tianchen was covered in blood, which made Princess Zi Xuan anxious. She couldn’t help but ask quickly, "How is it? Is everything alright?"

"No problem, I can still hold on. Although the power of this Saint Treasure is immense, and its destructive force is continuous, my power from the Buddhist Scriptures can gradually wear it down!" Ye Tianchen nodded and said.

"Then... I won’t disturb you, and I’ll protect you!" Princess Zi Xuan thought for a moment and said.

"If it weren’t for you quickly activating the Transmission Array just now, we might really have died. The Fifth Elder of Northern State is very strong, and with a Saint Treasure in hand, he is really hard to deal with!" Ye Tianchen said with a slight smile.

It turns out that just as the Fifth Elder of Northern State, using his Lifeblood, condensed his third arrow and shot it directly into the gap of the Chaos Qi, causing the entire interior of Chaos Qi to explode. When Ye Tianchen, hiding behind the Chaos Qi, had no way to escape, Princess Zi Xuan activated the Transmission Array below, just as Ye Tianchen had previously said, bringing them together to the East State!

This arrow light from the Saint Treasure was extremely powerful; it blasted Ye Tianchen’s entire body apart. One could say he was drenched in blood and covered in wounds. However, Ye Tianchen’s willpower was exceptionally resilient, and he immediately used the "Undying Golden Body Skill" to reconstruct his body, while quickly activating the Buddhist Scriptures to wear down the arrow energy. In this way, although his reconstructed body was riddled with scars, there was no major issue. It wouldn’t continue to be destroyed or blown apart. For the time being, he managed to stabilize his injuries and withstand the power of that arrow!

"Now that we’re in the East State, where can we go?" Princess Zi Xuan looked around and asked.

"This East State may not be safe either. I’ve offended the Qiong Qi clan, the guardians of East State’s cities, and also killed that young Yazi..." Ye Tianchen understood that this East State territory might not be safe either!

"We have the protection of the Holy Heaven Prison, we should be fine. Besides, the Qiong Qi Descendants may not quickly discover that you are back!" Princess Zi Xuan comforted Ye Tianchen and said.

Ye Tianchen thought for a moment, identified the direction slightly, and then said to Princess Zi Xuan, "Don’t worry, just focus on healing. I can still split a wisp of Divine Thought to control the Holy Heaven Prison, we need to find a safe place!"

"A safe place? Aren’t we safe now?" Princess Zi Xuan couldn’t help but frown and ask.

"Look behind you..." Ye Tianchen said.

Princess Zi Xuan paused and couldn’t help but look behind her, only to see a figure appear not far away. This person held a bow in his left hand and gathered an arrow light in his right, with a powerful aura and very fast speed, directly pursuing in the direction of Princess Zi Xuan and Ye Tianchen!

"This... The Fifth Elder of Northern State actually pursued us?" Princess Zi Xuan couldn’t help but say in surprise.

"Hmm, that old guy won’t let us go. He wants to eliminate us completely. He’s afraid you’ll rebuild the Flying Flower Zen Temple in the future, and he’s also afraid I’ll continue to grow until he can’t defeat me!" Ye Tianchen nodded and said with a smile.

"Then... should we temporarily hide with the Qiong Qi Descendants? No matter what, I have some connection with the Qiong Qi Descendants. Even if the Fifth Elder of the Northern State is strong, would he dare to recklessly offend an entire lineage?" Princess Zi Xuan paused for a moment and said.

"You seem to forget that I killed two of the young talents from the Qiong Qi Descendants. If we go now, I’m afraid there will be big trouble. They might tie me up directly and hand me to the Fifth Elder of the Northern State to settle a score!" Ye Tianchen shook his head and said.

"Don’t you know the Bone Transformation Skill? It’s hard to see through, even the ancestor of the Qiong Qi Descendants couldn’t see through it!" Princess Zi Xuan frowned and said.

"In my current state, it’s hard to use the Bone Transformation Skill. Even if I could use it, it’s difficult to maintain it. It’s too risky, and the Qiong Qi Descendants are not an option!" Ye Tianchen said, looking at Princess Zi Xuan.

"Why?" Princess Zi Xuan asked, somewhat puzzled.

"If my guess is correct, the Qiong Qi Descendants were just attached to your Flying Flower Zen Temple in the past. After so much time has passed, their gratitude towards your Flying Flower Zen Temple has grown cold. They probably already know about Sang Qing’s passing. I believe they won’t treat you the same anymore. They might even betray you, especially with all the Immortal Origin Liquid you have!" Ye Tianchen said seriously.

"This... no, it can’t be!" Princess Zi Xuan chuckled, hesitant to believe.

Ye Tianchen glanced at Princess Zi Xuan but said no more. It wasn’t time for lengthy explanations, as the Fifth Elder of the Northern State was indeed pursuing them, chasing from the Northern State to the East State with a clear intent to kill. He wouldn’t stop until they were dead. A way to escape this pursuit had to be found now. In this dire situation without support, Ye Tianchen had a wild idea and decided on a destination. With a sly smile, he thought: "Old guy, you want to chase me? Then I’ll let you chase all you want. Someone will deal with you eventually!"

"You don’t need to worry, just focus on healing. I already have a place in mind!" Ye Tianchen snapped back and said to Princess Zi Xuan with a smile.

Princess Zi Xuan wanted to ask for clarification, wanting to know what kind of place Ye Tianchen was talking about, a place that could bring them safety. It was quite puzzling, as Ye Tianchen was a newcomer to the Barbaric Forbidden Land, without friends or allies, having offended several lineages. Where could he possibly go?

However, just as Princess Zi Xuan wanted to ask, Ye Tianchen closed his eyes and continued to heal his injuries. This made Princess Zi Xuan refrain from speaking. She chose to trust Ye Tianchen. After overcoming so many dangers, her trust in Ye Tianchen remained. She just wondered where this guy would take her.

The speed of the Holy Heaven Prison was swift because Ye Tianchen enhanced it with the power of the Divine Movement Skill. Although Ye Tianchen hadn’t fully mastered control over the Holy Heaven Prison, he still managed it somewhat. Otherwise, the Fifth Elder of the Northern State, with his strength and speed, would have caught up long ago!

At this time, the Fifth Elder of the Northern State was furiously chasing from behind, his speed increasing. However, he noticed that the Holy Heaven Prison, carrying Ye Tianchen and Princess Zi Xuan, was also escaping faster and faster. Several times he wanted to draw his bow and shoot for a fatal blow, but he couldn’t find a good opportunity and had to keep chasing, not daring to slacken!

From day to night is perhaps a long day for ordinary people, but a fast day for martial artists. The Fifth Elder of the Northern State kept pursuing Ye Tianchen and Princess Zi Xuan, and within the blink of an eye, the day was over. As night slowly fell, Ye Tianchen and Princess Zi Xuan sat cross-legged under the Holy Heaven Prison, continuously moving forward while the Fifth Elder of the Northern State persisted in chasing from behind. During this pursuit, he tried several times to shoot out arrow energy, but failed to hit the Holy Heaven Prison, which frustrated the Fifth Elder immensely!

"Is that old guy still chasing us?" Ye Tianchen opened his eyes, with his complexion much improved, and asked.

"Yes, he hasn’t stopped. He seems very determined!" Princess Zi Xuan nodded and said.

"It looks like there’s no choice but to act now!" Ye Tianchen said with a hint of a smile.

"What will you do?" Princess Zi Xuan asked, momentarily stunned.

"No worries, you hide behind the Chaos Qi, and I’ll have a chat with that old guy!" Ye Tianchen chuckled.

After a day of healing, Ye Tianchen recovered significantly, and with the elimination of arrow energy by the Buddhist Scriptures, the internal arrow energy disappeared. Although his injuries hadn’t healed, Ye Tianchen’s strength recovered somewhat. He stepped forward, waved his right hand, and in front of him, the Chaos Qi resembled a curtain being drawn aside. When Ye Tianchen saw the Fifth Elder of the Northern State was less than a thousand meters away, pursuing them, he chuckled and loudly asked, "Old guy, tired yet? Want to sit down and rest?"
