Chapter 26: Lightning Formation

The cage in Shang Xias hand was nearly shattered by the Lightning Bird.

It wasnt just trying to sneak attack the woman. It was also trying to save the Mutated Rain Swallow.

Attacking the female cultivator from behind before shooting for the cage in Shang Xias hand was really a way to kill two birds with one stone Or perhaps, that wasnt the most appropriate quote to describe the little Lightning Birds action but who cares.

Regardless, Shang Xia realized that it was the best time for him to get away with the distraction from the Lightning Bird.

When the female cultivator dodged the attack, a gap formed between the three of them. Moreover, the other two cultivators were too distracted by the threat of the Lightning Bird to pay attention to Shang Xia.

Circulating his inner qi, a bolt of lightning appeared under his feet as he charged out of the encirclement without hesitation. In the blink of an eye, he traveled tens of feet away.

Stop him! The female cultivator yelled in a fit of rage, but she was promptly interrupted by the Lightning Bird.

Oh right, they messed with the Lightning Bird before

It was no wonder the bird chose to attack the female cultivator previously.

However, when he thought about the Mutated Rain Swallow in his hand, his expression changed.

As the chirps of the Lightning Bird echoed behind him, Shang Xia knew that it had already arrived.

Allowing himself to fall face first into the dirt, he barely managed to prop himself up when he heard the whistling of wind above his head.

Cursing the Lightning Bird in his mind for not stalling his enemies, Shang Xia got back to his feet. He knew that he wasnt out of the woods yet and he continued to escape.

When Hong Que and Hui Que tried to obstruct him, they realized that they were a step too late. They could only give chase like the little annoying flies they were.

If only the damn bird can turn around to stop the woman

You cant escape from me! The female cultivators voice rang in his ears, and Shang Xia felt his scalp going numb.

He reached down instinctively to hold his jade pendant while imbuing a trace of qi. A ray of light emerged from the pendant and it formed a solid barrier around him.

Without even turning his head, he could feel the energy fluctuations coming from behind.

Feeling more confident with the barrier of light around him, Shang Xia decided to risk a glance behind him. A green colored light chopped towards him and the impact sent him flying dozens of feet forward. Crashing into a massive tree, the ball of light surrounding him trembled violently without popping.

A large crack appeared on the pendant hanging around his waist. Nww hapters will be fully updated at (n)ov()l/bin(.)com

Even with the protection of the light barrier, Shang Xia felt a sharp pain shooting through his body.

As the leaves fell from the violent rustling, Shang Xia gnashed his teeth and growled, Martial intent!

Without a doubt, the green light that slammed into him was something like a martial intent that cultivators of the Azure Spiritual World practiced.

If not for the protective jade pendant, he might have died from the strike!

What a ruthless bitch Shang Xia cursed in his heart while turning to run away.

He had to remind himself that the Lightning Bird was probably after him instead of the three cultivators from the Azure Spiritual World.

Shang Xia might be shocked by the female cultivators strength, but she was equally as surprised by the fact that he survived her previous strike.

Even though Shang Xia was strong, she knew that he wasnt her opponent!

She thought that she could use her bloodline intent to seriously injure her opponent, but she didnt expect him to possess a defensive treasure!

It seemed as though his identity wasnt simple!

Interesting Capture him! She yelled at the two other cultivators. Shang Xia had successfully piqued her interest.

Young lady, were about to head into a forest Hong Que hesitated.

Thats alright! With obstructions everywhere, the damn bird wont be able to use its full strength. Well take care of it when were done with the brat! The female cultivator muttered.

As Hong Que and Hui Que returned to her side, the three of them rushed into the forest in unison.

Shang Xia heaved a sigh of relief as soon as he stepped into the covers of the trees.?Luck is finally on my side.

The moment he crashed into the tree before, he noticed the forest and realized that his only chance to escape would lie in there.

Rushing through the thicket, he forcefully cut a path through, leaving tons of damage around him.

Such an obvious path was quickly noticed by the cultivators of the Azure Spiritual World, and they sneered in contempt. That brat is starting to panic!

Look at him This is probably his first time coming into the battlefield between two worlds The female cultivator snorted.

However, a frown formed on Hong Ques face. Could he be luring us into a trap?

Nonsense. You overestimate the brat. He managed to comprehend martial intent and he has a jade pendant to protect himself. He definitely comes from an impressive background Humph. People like that dont have any battle sense!

Young lady, we still need to take precautions. Hui Que persuaded.

If youre so afraid, you can follow further behind. The female cultivator said before increasing her speed.

Chuckling bitterly, the two of them kept up with her in case anything happened.

Leaping past a giant crater five by three feet wide, Shang Xia stared at it with interest. Waving his sleeves casually, an item fell into his palm before he slapped it on the tree beside him. He repeated his actions several times before stopping.

Carefully erasing the trace of whatever he had done, he continued to run frantically through the forest.

After getting several dozen feet away from the crater, he stopped dead in his tracks and hid behind one of the massive trees beside him for cover.

It didnt take long before he heard hurried footsteps and leaves rustling all about.

Estimating the distance between his pursuers, Shang Xia felt that it was about time and he started to make his way back.

As the female cultivator followed his tracks, she could tell that the distance between them was shrinking.

Entering a clearing that contained the crater Shang Xia traveled across, she could tell that someone leaped across it several moments ago.

Her body soared through the air gracefully and her destination was the opposite side of the crater.

Hong Que and Hui Que followed closely behind.

However, a change in situation happened. Shang Xia charged through the thicket and arrived right on time. All three of them were in mid air when he arrived.

Circulating his inner qi, the Chaos Essence Palm and Lightning Palm he unleashed in each of his hands fused with each other and a brilliant reddish gold bolt shot towards the female cultivators head.

That was one of the strongest martial intents anyone could comprehend! Chaos Essence Lightning Palm!

How dare you show yourself?! The female cultivator yelled before summoning her treasure. A thin gauze appeared to protect her.

Her sleeves flapped outwards and they resembled a pair of wings that flapped aggressively towards Shang Xia. A ray of green light tore through the air once again.

As their martial intents clashed in mid air, the female cultivator suddenly realized that something was wrong! Shang Xias attack broke into a thousand parts and scattered all around the crater. The surrounding trees were charred black instantly.

Before she could react, pillars of reddish gold light shot into the skies and formed a massive web that trapped the three of them. Lightning rained down upon them.
