Chapter 184 The Difficulty of Finding a Way

After Cheng Shan received the pill, she didn't get a response from Shi Chen, so she swallowed the pill and began to meditate to heal her wounds. She knew Shi Chen was right; it was not a good place to stay for long, and she had to leave as soon as possible.

Shi Chen quickly cleaned up the traces of battle, clearing or destroying the aura and so on. After ten breaths had passed and the traces of battle had been destroyed by seven or eight percent, he breathed a sigh of relief.

He glanced at Cheng Shan who was recovering from her injuries, cast a spell, and a flaming meteorite appeared in the air, crashing down towards the battlefield.

"Ten breaths have passed. You and I will accept our fate." Shi Chen said this and turned to leave. He knew that he had to leave here as soon as possible, otherwise if he was discovered by the combined monster in the dangerous peak, he would be dead.

Cheng Shan watched Shi Chen's back as he left, memorized the figure in her mind, and then she also summoned a flying boat and flew in another direction.

Three quarters of an hour later, a monk in black clothes with a white collar, wearing golden boots and with his hands behind his back came from the direction of the dangerous peak. He took a step that covered more than ten miles and in a few breaths, he stood above the messy battlefield.

The remaining traces of battle were destroyed, and most of them were warm meteorite fragments with a mixed smell.

"Ballag, track the scent and find the monk who killed Luwei." The monk standing in the air said in a lukewarm voice.

Ten breaths later, a white-haired monk emerged from the dense forest, half-knelt on the ground, and said, "Peak Master, I will go right away."

After Shi Chen left, he accelerated at full speed and flew away. The most urgent thing was to find a hidden place to recover from his injuries.

Soon after, Shi Chen found a cave hidden in the mountains. The formation flags flew in and out of the cave entrance, and the scenery changed. From the outside, the cave entrance appeared to be covered in greenery, making it difficult to detect even with spiritual sense outside the formation.

After about an hour, Shi Chen's injuries had basically recovered. He stood up, stretched his body, and felt that his body was in good condition.

A hundred feet outside the cave stood a white-haired cultivator. If you got closer, you could tell from his aura that he was a demon beast that had reached the perfect state of spiritual transformation and had transformed into a human.

He had been standing here for nearly half an hour. The tracking breath disappeared here. His spiritual sense explored the area within a radius of ten miles, but there was no tracking breath.

Shi Chen discovered it when the transformed monster arrived, but at the critical moment of healing, he could only wait. Fortunately, the formation not only blocked the spiritual consciousness and transformed the scenery, but also blocked the breath.

This place is more than two hundred miles away from the previous battle site. It is already at the edge of the Qingming Mountain area. A few dozen miles further out, it will leave the territory of Qingming Mountain.

Shi Chen chose the west direction, which was towards Qingxuan Sect. The ten-year agreement was about to expire, so he returned to Qingxuan Sect to meet Huang Qi and see if he had any surprise news.

Seeing that the transformed monster outside the formation did not leave for a long time, Shi Chen could only wait helplessly.

He could still deal with a cultivator at the early stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm, but Shi Chen was no match for a cultivator at the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm. The suppression of the cultivator's level was extremely obvious, and many cultivators at the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm had their own realms. When cultivators at the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm fought, even if they were evenly matched, the suppression of the cultivator's level would put Shi Chen at a disadvantage.

Even if Shi Chen had the Golden Realm, the secret technique of transforming the mind into a divine weapon, and the secret method of divine consciousness, he could not guarantee victory over a cultivator in the middle stage of the Divine Transformation Realm. You cannot guarantee that they have not cultivated the secret technique of the mind.

If you try to find out, you will expose your own cards, which will not be worth the loss.

After hiding in the cave for three days, the transformed monster outside showed no intention of leaving, and Shi Chen became a little anxious.

To escape from here, the first thing to do is to confuse the opponent and use the earth escape technique to leave. However, the rocks are blocking the way and the progress is very slow, about one or two feet per breath. With the current cultivation level and spiritual power, if you escape among the rocks, you can only escape a few miles after the spiritual power is exhausted. With the help of the object-matching technique and changing the breath, you can escape dozens of miles underground within two days, and almost escape from the territory of Qingming Mountain. As long as you leave the territory of Qingming Mountain, even if the Jindan monster tracks you down, the sky is high and the land is vast, and the threat is not great.

Shi Chen absorbed a trace of breath from his body, then sealed it into a blank jade slip, set up a self-destruct formation, and placed the jade slip inside.

After making preparations to escape, he took one last look at the monsters lurking outside, used his physiognomy skills to change his aura, and began to hide in the caves and rocks.

A day and a half later, Shi Chen escaped from underground, more than fifty miles away from the cave. The underground escape technique allowed him to escape through rocks for more than ten miles, and then through soil and stones. The speed of underground escape was much faster. When he escaped from underground, the ground was covered with soil, which shortened the expected time by half a day.

Looking at the direction, Shi Chen summoned the flying boat and steered it into the sky.

In a quarter of an hour, he flew dozens of miles and heard a wolf howl behind him.

Ouch!

The spotted wolf, a Jindan monster transformed into a human form, stood at the place where Shi Chen escaped, looking at the direction where Shi Chen flew away and roaring angrily.

With the strength of the spotted wolf's spiritual sense, it could have scanned Shi Chen's flying boat, but to catch up with the flying boat, it would have to chase it at full speed for three or four hundred miles. By then, it would have been out of the territory of Qingming Mountain, which was no longer the territory of the monsters. It would have been cautious if it wanted to intercept the flying boat of the human cultivators.

Being deceived by his formation, he had the strength to kill Taowei. This human cultivator also had some trump cards, so he might not be able to keep him.

The angry roar could be heard over a dozen miles away. It was not because of the impact of the self-destructing formation, but because the task assigned by the Peak Master, the Demon King, was not completed.

Five days later, Shi Chen drove a flying boat to a fairy city and stayed in a fairy inn. He tried to gather recent intelligence, but none of it was what he wanted.

After nearly ten years of searching for the recipe for the God-Forging Pill, Shi Chen still hasn't found it. Now, he wants to go back to Qingxuan Sect to ask for the recipe.

Once one has learned the sect's elixir recipe, one will be subject to the sect's constraints and will swear an oath to refine such elixir with the sect's permission.

These restricted strategic elixirs cannot be refined or sold at will. They must be approved by the sect, and there will also be sect alchemy tasks.

I am used to freedom and unconstrainedness, and now I have to compromise, and I feel a lot of resentment in my heart.

Shi Chen lay on his bed in the Immortal Inn, feeling a mixture of emotions. He had been reluctant to return to the Qingxuan Sect to seek the elixir formula, but now he had no choice but to do so, which made him feel helpless.

He secretly complained about how difficult it was to find the God-Forging Pill formula. Ten years had passed, and he still hadn't found anything. Now, he was forced to return to the sect and accept those restrictions and limitations.

Thinking of this, Shi Chen couldn't help but sigh. He understood that the sect's elixir formula was his most likely hope, but it also meant losing some of his freedom. He had previously had little to do with the sect, leading a free and unfettered life. Now, he had to compromise for a single elixir formula, which filled him with resentment.

However, he also knew that if he didn't do this, he would probably never obtain the God-Forging Pill formula. In his inner struggle, he gradually accepted this reality. Although he was reluctant, he had no choice but to choose this path to achieve his goal.

This is also a helpless choice and the last choice.

After resting for a few days, Shi Chen left the fairy city and continued to steer the flying boat, slowly flying towards the Qingxuan Sect. He traveled hundreds of miles every day, and whenever he encountered a fairy city in a market, he would go in to inquire about some news, hoping that his luck would explode and he would find what he was looking for.
