"The first one!"

Shen Changqing deftly put the storage ring away, silently muttering a line in his Heart.

He neither looked for Post-stage God Realm nor for Initial Stage God Realm.

The former were too strong. They gave a lot of Battle Merit, but killing them was a pain.

As for the latter.

Their strength wasn't much, but the Battle Merit they gave was pitiful.

So.

Shen Changqing's targets were all those Middle Stage God Realm Cultivators.

"You dare kill a Disciple of White Jade Sect, you're seeking death!"

After that Fifth Grade God Realm Cultivator fell, before he could look for the next target, he felt a powerful aura lock onto him.

In an instant.

Shen Changqing's figure vanished from where he stood.

Almost at the same time he disappeared, a golden force blasted down on that spot, making the mountain collapse.

"Post-stage God Realm!"

Looking at the old man in front of him, Shen Changqing's face turned grave.

The power of that strike just now had given him a sense of death. Very clearly, this was definitely a Post-stage God Realm powerhouse, and absolutely not a simple one.

His mind spun rapidly, gauging the odds of victory.

Very soon.

Shen Changqing arrived at a conclusion.

Facing such a powerhouse, even if he used the Eyes of Time, he might not be able to kill him.

At that thought.

He turned and fled. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

——

In the void, the two of them chased and escaped, one in front and one behind.

"Fifth Grade Dao Arms!"

Bai Yuqi stared at that figure he could never quite close in on, his eyes gloomy, his expression extremely ugly.

He, a堂堂 Ninth Layer God Realm powerhouse, an Outer Sect Elder of White Jade Sect, was actually failing to kill a mere Fourth Level God Realm Cultivator. It was undeniably humiliating.

However.

He also knew exactly what identity that Candle Sect Disciple had.

Zhongshan Chou!

A peerless genius who had comprehended the Eyes of Time. Though only Fourth Level God Realm, killing an ordinary Seventh Layer God Realm would pose no problem.

Such a genius powerhouse had long since been placed on the must-kill list of White Jade Sect and the White Jade Clan standing behind it.

Moreover.

The reward for killing him was extremely generous.

Thinking of that reward, Bai Yuqi's Heart could not help but grow a little excited.

Divine Power burned.

His speed increased once again.

"You can't escape. So what if you have Fifth Grade Dao Arms—how long can your Divine Power sustain it? Stop running and accept your death obediently, and I can at least give you a quick one!"

The cold voice came from behind.

Shen Changqing acted as if he hadn't heard.

Stopping.

Was impossible.

He hadn't expected that right after entering the battlefield, he would be locked onto by such a powerhouse.

However.

Shen Changqing himself felt no great fear.

Fifth Grade Dao Arms consumed a lot, but his own foundation was far from shallow.

Besides, from killing all those Divine Crystal owners earlier, he had taken all their storage rings; the Divine Crystal within was quite considerable.

If used to replenish his expenditure, it wasn't a big problem.

"I may not be afraid of him catching up, but being chased like this isn't a solution. I have to think of a way to shake him off, otherwise this trip will be for nothing!"

Shen Changqing's thoughts turned.

The Pursuit Shuttle under his feet did not slow in the slightest.

His purpose in coming to the battlefield was what? Mainly to collect Battle Merit.

If he was chased the whole time.

He simply had no chance to reap Battle Merit.

Soon after.

He made his decision.

Divine Crystal appeared, and in the very next instant, it was swept into the Divine Fire.

Rumble!!

The Divine Fire blazed dazzlingly bright, reaching a peak state.

Immediately after.

A vast tide of Divine Power poured entirely into the Pursuit Shuttle, making this Fifth Grade Dao Arms shine with brilliant light.

In a flash.

The Pursuit Shuttle's speed surged.

"Damn it!"

Seeing this scene as he chased from behind, Bai Yuqi couldn't help but curse.

He had already been barely managing to keep up; now he was almost completely shaken off.

Seeing this.

This Elder of White Jade Sect couldn't afford to hold back anymore.

Divine Blood roiled and exploded.

Divine Power burned.

His aura skyrocketed, and the Ninth Layer God Realm foundation was pushed to the extreme. He strode through the void, each step spanning ten thousand rivers and mountains. The distance that had just been widened was suddenly pulled back in.

In less than a few breaths.

The two were already less than a hundred li apart.

"Boy, you're not getting away!"

Bai Yuqi's face twisted ferociously. Even for a Ninth Layer God Realm powerhouse, the consumption of just a few breaths was hard to bear.

To pay such a price.

He had only one goal: to kill the other party.

So.

When the distance was less than a hundred li, he finally stopped hesitating, and directly struck forward with a palm. The golden palm was solid as substance, terrifying power spreading out and obliterating ten thousand li of void.

On the long boat.

Shen Changqing seemed completely unaware of what was happening behind him.

He took a step forward.

Far horizons became within reach.

Facing such a threat, he finally used his long-hidden First Grade Divine Skills.

His figure instantly disappeared, and the Pursuit Shuttle vanished with him.

The golden Palm Gang fell.

Mountains collapsed.

Rivers dried up.

The smile had yet to fully appear on Bai Yuqi's face when a powerful warning rose in his Heart.

He spun around abruptly.

A long boat filled his vision.

"Detonate!"

A cold voice sounded, like the nightmare of death itself.

Not good!

At that moment, Bai Yuqi's face changed drastically.

He wanted to retreat, but it was already too late.

Rumble!!

A terrifying power erupted in the void, instantly swallowing this Outer Sect Elder of White Jade Sect whole.

Not only that.

The self-detonation of Fifth Grade Dao Arms sent shockwaves sweeping across over a hundred thousand li, vast and boundless, making many Divine Realm Powerhouses' faces change drastically.
