Using the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy as a means of confinement, Fang Chen was naturally not unfamiliar with it. At this moment, feeling the unusual fluctuations of the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy and the sudden increase in resistance in the air, Fang Chen's expression changed drastically.
This was a unique restraining technique employed by a strong practitioner of the Primordial Embryo Realm. Even a warrior of the Alchemy Realm would find it extremely difficult to break free once enveloped by it, let alone them. If they were to be delayed here for even a few breaths of time and were caught up by the Purple-Robed Middle-Aged Man behind them, Fang Chen could easily imagine the dire consequences.
"This prison formed by the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy is not very stable." In this critical moment, Fang Chen became increasingly calm. Drawing from his experience as a powerful figure in the Heavenly Realm, he knew well that this prison formed by the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy must have relatively stable areas as well as relatively weak spots.
Normally, even the weakest part of such a prison would not be something that Fang Chen, currently at the Body Refinement Realm Ninth Layer, could break through. However, since the Purple-Robed Middle-Aged Man was still quite far from them and his control over the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy was nowhere near its peak strength, this gave Fang Chen a glimmer of hope.
Carefully sensing the surging Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy before him, a flash of brilliance appeared in Fang Chen's eyes as he quickly identified the weakest point.
"Open!" Fang Chen shouted loudly. As his Qi Energy surged rapidly within him, he suddenly extended both hands and tore fiercely at the empty space before him.
Before him lay an empty expanse with nothing present. Yet during his forceful tearing motion, an extremely strange "shredding" sound emerged, as if something had been torn apart.
At that moment, the surrounding confinement suddenly loosened. Without pausing to catch his breath, Fang Chen moved alongside Lian Yiyue and swiftly escaped from the prison formed by the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy.
"Damn it, this guy..." In mid-air, witnessing this scene, the Purple-Robed Middle-Aged Man's expression changed dramatically, almost unable to believe his eyes.
Even though due to distance his current manifestation of the prison was not very stable, he thought it would be quite easy to trap any warrior below the Alchemy Realm for a short period. However, what unfolded before him felt like a slap in the face.
To be broken free from by someone at the Body Refinement Realm Ninth Layer in an instant was simply unbelievable!
Watching Fang Chen and Lian Yiyue about to disappear from sight, the Purple-Robed Middle-Aged Man's face turned extremely grim. Then, a fierce look flashed across his face. As he rapidly flew forward, he reached out his hand and grasped at the empty space before him. His fingers trembled slightly as he forcefully flicked his hand towards Fang Chen and Lian Yiyue.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh...
Suddenly, a series of piercing sounds echoed through the air. Five streams of Qi Energy infused with Frenzy and lethal intent tore through the air and shot towards them.
"This is bad!"
The piercing sound of breaking air echoed in his ears, and the intense sense of danger from behind felt like a thorn in Fang Chen's back, causing his skin to tense up at that moment. Having just broken free from the prison formed by Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy, he was rapidly fleeing, and even though he had entered the Purple Sun Mountain Range, he had not yet had a moment to breathe before his mind was suddenly alert again.
Beside Fang Chen, Lian Yiyue's beautiful eyes flashed with panic as she suddenly turned her gaze toward him. This was an attack from a Primordial Embryo Realm expert; even a hasty strike could severely injure someone at the early stage of the Alchemy Realm. As for those below the Alchemy Realm, survival would be nearly impossible.
To make matters worse, they were still in a frantic escape, with no time to face the threat head-on. The Purple-Robed Middle-Aged Man was already not far behind them. If they stopped to resist the five waves of Severe Qi Energy, it would undoubtedly waste precious time, and they would likely be caught by the approaching Purple-Robed Middle-Aged Man.
On the other hand, if they did not stop to fully defend against these five waves of Severe Qi Energy, it would be akin to seeking death. Even if they tried their best to resist, facing five waves of Severe Qi Energy capable of severely injuring some Transcendence Realm Warriors would still inflict significant damage on them. Moreover, in their current state of rapid escape without full resistance, they could easily be obliterated.
At this moment, Fang Chen and Lian Yiyue were faced with a dilemma. What made it more troubling was that neither choice seemed to lead to a good outcome.
"You can't escape!" The eyes of the Purple-Robed Middle-Aged Man glinted with ferocity as he fixed his gaze on the fleeing figures of Fang Chen and Lian Yiyue, a mocking smile on his face.
Although Fang Chen had previously displayed unexpected abilities that astonished him, he was now personally attacking. In the face of absolute power, he did not believe that this Body Refinement Realm little one still had any chance of survival!
Should they not stop to fully resist?
Watching Fang Chen, who showed no sign of stopping, Lian Yiyue's anxiety deepened.
Even so, she was confident that she could preserve her life against this attack from the Purple-Robed Middle-Aged Man. However, it would undoubtedly cost her many life-saving resources, and a serious injury was unavoidable. In such a perilous place where danger could arise at any moment, being heavily injured was extremely dangerous—almost tantamount to death.
Feeling the approaching waves of Severe Qi Energy behind her, Lian Yiyue sighed lightly. A flash of light appeared at her chest as a palm-sized jade talisman suddenly emerged.
With a crackle, she reached out and crushed the jade talisman. A pale blue light suddenly spread from her hand, forming a massive protective barrier that enveloped her completely. Sensing the powerful aura emanating from it, she felt slightly relieved as the prickling sense of crisis began to fade somewhat.
At that moment, her eyes caught sight of something shocking beside her—while maintaining their rapid escape without any pause, a black-red orb emitting an inexplicable and chilling aura had appeared in Fang Chen's hand.
Underworld Evil Eye!
Fang Chen tightly gripped the Underworld Evil Eye in his palm, and at that moment, the Qi Energy within him surged wildly towards the Underworld Evil Eye. If Fang Chen were to open his hand now, he would find that the strands of blood-red light on the surface of the Underworld Evil Eye had begun to flow. In the air, the previously faint and elusive aura of heart-pounding dread became increasingly intense.
Behind him, five strands of extremely Severe Qi Energy were now only about ten feet away from Fang Chen. With their speed, they could appear behind him in an instant and pierce through his body. Enduring the chilling sensation that made his heart tremble, Fang Chen wore a grim expression.
“Destruction Light!”
He shouted fiercely and suddenly released the Underworld Evil Eye. At the same time, two beams of light, roughly the thickness of fingers, shot out from it. After arcing through the air, they blasted towards the five strands of Severe Qi Energy that were dangerously close to Fang Chen.
On one side was the hurried release of five strands of Severe Qi Energy by a Primordial Embryo Realm expert; on the other side were two beams of Destruction Light filled with intense destructive energy.
Sizzle…
The two forces quickly met in mid-air; however, contrary to expectations of a cataclysmic collision, under the entanglement of the two beams of Destruction Light, the five strands of Severe Qi Energy released by the Purple-Robed Middle-Aged Man began to dissolve.
Of course, the two beams of Destruction Light were also dissolving, and they were doing so at a rate much faster than that of the five strands of Severe Qi Energy. Clearly, they would not be able to eliminate all five strands before completely vanishing.
After unleashing two beams of Destruction Light, a trace of paleness suddenly flashed across Fang Chen's handsome face. It was evident that this took a significant toll on him as well. However, as he released the Underworld Evil Eye, his movements resumed.
Soon, the two beams capable of annihilating most martial artists below the Alchemy Realm completely disappeared, along with three strands of Severe Qi Energy unleashed by the Purple-Robed Middle-Aged Man. The remaining two strands of Severe Qi Energy, now free from the restraint of the Destruction Light, were about to surge towards Fang Chen once more.
Just then, Fang Chen suddenly threw something into the air.
It was an ancient and elegant Azure Sulfur Lamp.
As the Azure Sulfur Lamp was tossed into mid-air, a wave of pale purple flames erupted from within. The temperature around surged dramatically at that moment, and like a tidal wave, the pale purple flames swept up and engulfed both remaining strands of Severe Qi Energy.
The pale purple flames formed a sea of fire that tightly ensnared the two strands of Qi Energy, their scorching heat incinerating everything within.
Boom! Boom!
Suddenly, two violent explosions echoed through the area. Under the burning of the Pale Purple Flame, these last two strands of Qi Energy were finally ignited completely, transforming into Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy that dissipated into the surroundings.
In less than half a minute, from the Underworld Evil Eye shooting out Destruction Light to the subsequent use of the Azure Ancient Lamp, Fang Chen responded fluidly to the situation. Without pausing his steps, he managed to neutralize all five deadly Severe Qi Energy attacks, astonishing everyone present.
His face grew even paler as he sensed the dwindling Power of Creation within him. Fang Chen retracted the Azure Ancient Lamp and continued to flee rapidly with Lian Yiyue without looking back.
Unable to utilize Divine Consciousness Power and unable to fly, the dense forest in the Purple Sun Mountain Range became their best cover.
"Damn it!" Outside the Purple Sun Mountain Range, the Purple-Robed Middle-Aged Man's face turned ashen as he watched Fang Chen and Lian Yiyue quickly disappear from sight.
Recalling his earlier confidence and comparing it to the current situation made his already pale complexion even worse. It felt like a heavy slap across his face.
Standing outside the Purple Sun Mountain Range, gazing at the dark expanse that resembled a ferocious beast with its mouth wide open, the Purple-Robed Middle-Aged Man couldn't help but remember rumors of a Primordial Embryo Realm Martial Artist who had perished within. A hint of hesitation crossed his face; at this moment, he began to waver.
