Chapter 1465 : Life from the Brink of Death
The latest URL: Eldrin (Person Name) received the spiritual light, and with just a brief glance, a trace of astonishment flickered across his expression.
It turned out that this talisman was called the Whirling Feathers Celestial Evasion Talisman, a top-grade eighth-tier escape treasure. In the past, the 7 Mysteries Daoist had relied on it to escape the pursuit of the master of the Flowing Fire Star Palace.
As a single-use treasure, the value of a treasure talisman falls far short of immortal treasures and rare artifacts of the same rank, yet it stands shoulder to shoulder with top-grade World-Creation Treasures.
At this moment, the gift of this treasure from Daoist 7 Mysteries could truly be considered a thoughtful gesture.
At this thought, Eldrin hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "Many thanks for your gift, fellow Daoist."
The 7 Mysteries Daoist said nothing, merely waving his hand before vanishing into the void.
Watching him depart, Eldrin glanced at Lyra and said, "This journey is perilous. You should remain here alone."
Given the current circumstances,
Lyra gazed deeply into Eldrin's eyes, then slowly shook her head. "On the path ahead, we shall walk side by side. This was a vow made 2 100 1000 years ago."
"In this hour of peril, how could I ever abandon you?"
Eldrin's heart trembled faintly. He finally let out a soft sigh, then nodded and said, "Very well. Today, I shall walk alongside you."
With those final words, Eldrin spoke no more.
He and Lyra (Person Name) departed together from the Divine Abyss Immortal City, then soared toward the Sea of Returning Ruins.
No sooner had the 2 emerged near the Divine Abyss Immortal City than they noticed several figures already blocking their path in the void, having waited for quite some time.
Master of the Flowing Fire Star Palace, the Mysterious Heaven Daoist, the Yang Extreme Ancestor, and the Azure River Daoist.
In the blink of an eye, Eldrin recognized the origins of these individuals. Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately activated the Yin-Yang Void Mirror and vanished into the emptiness.
Watching them depart with the aid of a spatial treasure, the Lord of the Flowing Fire Star Palace showed no surprise.
"There's no escape."
He let out a cold sneer, then focused his senses for a brief moment before speaking, "Found you."
As the words faded, the master of the Flowing Fire Star Palace tore through the void with several others and vanished.
Meanwhile, Eldrin and Lyra had just emerged from the void. They hadn't flown far when they spotted several figures already approaching through the nearby emptiness.
The pursuers were none other than the Lord of Flowing Fire Star Palace, accompanied by Xuantian, Yangji, and Canghe.
"Go, quickly."
Witnessing this scene, Eldrin’s expression shifted drastically. Without hesitation, he activated the Sky-Soaring Shuttle and vanished into the boundless expanse of heaven and earth.
When he reappeared, Eldrin had already flown down to the boundless depths beneath the earth.
Without the slightest hesitation, Eldrin then drew Lyra into the Mirror of Yin, Yang, and Void, transforming into a 5-colored aurora that streaked toward the abyssal depths of the Netherrealm.
Soon, the master of the Flowing Fire Star Palace and the others also activated their void spiritual treasures and caught up.
Yet, as they pursued him relentlessly, they discovered that Eldrin's 5-Colored Aurora Evasion was far too profound and elusive.
Eldrin activated the 5-Colored Aurora Evasion, a technique not only of extraordinary speed and permeating subtlety, but 1 that existed in a state between form and formlessness.
Such a miraculous escape technique left the crowd struggling even to keep pace, utterly incapable of interception or containment. They could only watch helplessly as Eldrin continued his flight.
Among the few, the only 1 whose escape light surpassed Eldrin's speed was the master of the Flowing Fire Star Palace.
However, the master of the Flowing Fire Star Palace was currently wounded. To prevent his injuries from worsening, he dared not fully unleash his evasion technique, thus never succeeding in intercepting Eldrin (Person Name).
The Lord of the Flowing Fire Star Palace had been pursuing for a long while, his expression growing increasingly grim as he remarked, "This Eldrin's escape technique is truly extraordinary. But let us see how much spiritual power you truly possess."
No 1 knew how long they had been chasing, but gradually, everyone began to sense that something was amiss.
The Mysterious Heaven Taoist’s expression darkened, and he spoke with grave solemnity, "The direction he is heading... seems to be toward the Netherworld."
However, Patriarch Yangji’s expression remained grave, and he could not help but weigh his words carefully. "Even if he flees to the netherworld, our pursuit will not be in vain."
"If my deduction is correct, he intends to lead us toward the 10-1000 Crow Forbidden Ground."
"The Myriad Crows Forbidden Land?"
The master of the Flowing Fire Star Palace narrowed his eyes, a trace of coldness flashing within them. After a moment, he sneered, "He's resorting to a desperate move, betting on survival through destruction. He intends to rely on the power of the 10-1000 Crows Forbidden Land to shake off our pursuit."
Seeing this, Daoist Canghe could not help but ponder before asking, "Then what should we do?"
The Lord of the Flowing Fire Star Palace furrowed his brow slightly, his expression icy as he stated, "My tracking secret art can only sense targets within a range of 7 Immortal Steps. If he manages to escape beyond this distance, we will likely lose this opportunity forever."
Upon hearing this, all the immortals furrowed their brows slightly. A distance of 1 "Immortal Journey" referred to the distance an immortal could cover flying at full speed for an entire year.
Generally speaking, a cultivator at the early Immortal Ascension stage could cross a sea like the Abyssal Return Sea in a short time.
An ordinary immortal would typically be able to cross 4 or 5 seas in the time it takes to fly for 1 year.
The distance of 7 immortal realms was roughly equivalent to half the span of Flowing River 100 Seas—a tracking range that could be considered both vast and profound.
Even if Eldrin activated the Yin-Yang Void Mirror to traverse the void, it would take at least a dozen or 20-some attempts to fly beyond its reach.
However, while the area was vast, it was not particularly so for him. The entire Western Qi Divine Abyss Sea stretched beyond measure, and an ordinary immortal would need at least 1 1000 years to traverse it.
A sensory range of 7 Immortal Paths was less than 1 10-thousandth of the Western Qi Divine Abyssal Sea's expanse. Once Eldrin (Person Name) escaped this radius, finding him again would be nothing but a fool's dream.
With this thought in mind, the group fell silent and immediately followed the master of the Flowing Fire Star Palace in pursuit.
Thus time flowed on, and in their chase—1 fleeing, 1 pursuing—they soon arrived before the Myriad Crows Forbidden Ground.
Eldrin merely cast a glance before transforming into a 5-colored aurora and darting inside.
The master of the Flowing Fire Star Palace and his followers pursued them to the outskirts of the Myriad Crows Forbidden Land, yet their expressions involuntarily turned grave.
The ashen-robed Taoist’s face darkened before he spoke, “It seems he truly intends to shake us off by venturing into the 10-1000 Crow Forbidden Zone.”
The Lord of the Flowing Fire Star Palace nodded and immediately declared, "Though the Myriad Crows Forbidden Land is perilous, traversing the boundary between Yin and Yang should pose no significant challenge to us."
With those words, the Lord of the Flowing Fire Star Palace was the first to charge inside. Seeing this, the rest of the crowd followed closely behind, rushing into the 10-1000 Crow Forbidden Ground.
Meanwhile, Eldrin was flying continuously through the 10-1000-Crows Forbidden Land.
Seeing his pursuers closing in, he let out a desperate roar, "Old Fiend Flowing Fire, must you truly annihilate us to the last soul?"
"In that case, come and catch me if you dare."
With an enraged roar, Eldrin charged recklessly into the Forbidden Land of Shadow Crows.
"Is he out of his mind?"
Ancestor Yangji’s expression shifted drastically at the sight before him.
Elder Xuantian’s expression remained placid as he spoke, “Driven to desperation, this individual fled recklessly into the Shadow Crow Domain, hoping to exploit the dangers of the forbidden land to shake us off.”
"This is a method of being reborn through certain death."
At this point, Daoist Xuantian halted his steps, appearing to have no intention of continuing the pursuit.
