Bai Ming's heart sank, but he shouted loudly, "Those who are not afraid to die can come, hahaha."

Kai Ye scoffed before he yelled after him; "Those who are fearful of death are cowards! Chase him, the spirit Fruit is certainly with him, we cannot let him join up with the other cultivators. Only by capturing this person can we obtain the greatest of benefits."

With such great profits in sight, the Red Lotus sect's spirit realm cultivators pursued at an even faster pace after hearing that.

'Not so dumb are you,' Bai Ming snorted in displeasure before pointing his finger, the flying sword bathed in raging flames flew out and shot at Feng Jin Bo.

Feng Jin Bo was shocked, he tried to dodge. But because he was distracted, his Battlefield killer move was interrupted and he had to start all over again to use it.

Feng Jin Bo's eyes spewed flames of hatred as he spat out mouthfuls of black blood due to the backlash of having his killer move forcefully annulled.

The core disciple, Kai Ye passed him and chased after Bai Ming.

Bai Ming took a glance and once again tried to sow discord, "Kai Ye, you shameless thief! The Yang elemental spirit fruit is in your hands, but you are chasing after me. Such incredible acting!"

Kai Ye was irate, "You scheming dog, Don't run if you have guts!"

"Against you people, why would I need to run, it would be soiling my teacher's face!" Bai Ming shouted maniacally, "Continue chasing me if you have the guts, we'll see who is the most unfortunate one in the end! Hahaha."

Bai Ming exhibited unmatched fearlessness, he was so arrogant even though he was being pursued by so many quasi-Yin-Yang cultivators.

In contrast, the Red Lotus sect's cultivators became increasingly reluctant.

For the pursuing cultivators, there was a key point in this whole situation, who had that essential Spirit fruit? What Bai Ming said earlier was highly possible.

The seeds of distrust Bai Ming placed gradually started showing its effects.

And to the group's 'bad luck', it seemed that Bai Ming had reinforcements ready to back him up. Giving it a thought, to hunt such an enormous group of Paradise Flame beasts, they must have set up at least a tier-5 formation or even set up a top-tier battlefield killer mover, this was quite possible!

"If we enter a tier-5 formation, it would be problematic.."

Both Feng Jin Bo and Sima Bu had a behemoth backing them, they might not be afraid, but for these inner sect disciples if they died no one would even care to bury their corpses.

Even if anyone was willing to bury their corpses, the likelihood of their corpses remaining intact was exceedingly low.

The cultivation world was such, it was unforgiving and ruthless to all.

These inner disciples even though they were not top-tier talents, they were still upper-tier talents with bright futures ahead, if they weren't such figures why would Feng Jin Bo and the other two care to recruit them, it was because they held value enough to be their foot soldiers.

And these inner disciples only agreed to be their pawns because they sought explosive growth, after all, time was of the greatest importance to cultivators.

As the situation got increasingly tense, changes appeared on the hunting grounds.

First, an inner disciple fell to the back of the group before gradually separating from the pursuing group.

Next, more and more inner disciples imitated their movements.

The Red lotus sect may be a righteous sect, but the battle of benefits was ever present in the sect. Thriving in a place such as that could these inner disciples afford to be stupid? Absolutely not, they would be fed to the dogs if they were.

The inner disciples who fell behind were not willing to let Bai Ming go, but they were fearful of falling into a high-level formation or a battlefield killer move and being unable to leave. Thus, they all chose to let others take the charge and scout the path.

'These guys.. they're useless!' Kai Ye who was the closest to Bai Ming caught this and internally cursed, but his movements also became hesitant.

He was a Core disciple, but his standing was more in touch with these inner sect disciples than the true disciples, if it wasn't for him obtaining an opportunity in the past he would also be an inner disciple at most, but now even though he was a core disciple and had various treasures and diverse methods. Against the tier-5 or above formations and unknown battlefield killer moves, he might not be able to escape.

Even Feng Jin Bo was feeling slightly reluctant, he reserved some of his attention and energy to deal with any reinforcements of the enemy.

Thus, a strange scenario was created.

Bai Ming flew in front, shouting and cursing angrily, he was in a weaker position but he had a haughty attitude.

Behind him were a bunch of Quasi-Yin-Yang cultivators, even though they had the advantage in numbers, they were restrained and displayed a weaker attitude.

Most of the time, Bai Ming was only using his damaged beast wings to fly, but the cultivators behind him had to resort to their best possible movement methods to follow him.

Bai Ming's thoughts were far less confident than his actions; 'So troublesome! Looking at my circumstances, I can only escape to the core area and use the advantage in that environment to break free from these pursuers.'

'First, get rid of those Paradise Flame beasts and then shrug off these frugal monkeys.' Bai Ming revised his current thought process.

Fights between cultivators weren't always about strength, cultivators had to analyze both the risks and benefits involved, majority of the cultivators would only engage in fights when the benefits outweighed the risks, It would be foolish otherwise.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

With Bai Ming at the lead, a small group of cultivators flew in the sky while moving like flashes of lightning, there was a huge commotion.historical

Feng Jin Bo had discreetly been preparing his battlefield killer move, it could already be used.

He held in his excitement as he sped up, quickly surpassing Kai Ye and reaching closer to Bai Ming.

This sudden action made Bai Ming extremely vigilant.

He immediately used Self-Sword formation and enhanced his speed, flying away.

'Damn you!' Feng Jin Bo cursed, his battlefield killer move was simple scarlet domain and had a greater effect when the distance was short. With his current distance from Bai Ming, there was no chance to succeed in capturing him.

Bai Ming once again activated the self-sword formation and raised his speed, the Quasi-Yin-Yang cultivators in the back were internally grumbling.

Feng Jin Bo stared at Bai Ming's fleeing figure with viciousness, he felt the blood in his body boil.

'Since it has come to this, I'll go all in!' Feng Jin Bo's eyes flashed with resolve, he immediately transmitted a message to the other two;

"I have a way, I can bring both of you along with me at great speed. But I need to focus and cannot be distracted, I hope you can restrain him."

Kai Ye didn't hesitate at all, he immediately agreed and gave a thumbs-up to Feng Jin Bo.

As for Sima Bu, he immediately opposed Feng Jin Bo's proposal, "Brother Feng, is it really worth it? I know that method you speak of is the life-saving treasure master gifted us, but it can only be used once before it deteriorates, we still have to spend another two months in this damned place before we can leave, just for a tier-5 spirit fruit it's not worth it! You have to think this through, don't let your emotions guide you to your downfall."

Feng Jin Bo heard this and stared at Sima Bu with his dull eyes, not saying a word.

But Sima Bu was also unyielding, he stared back at Feng Jin Bo with a firm stance.

The both of them didn't speak a word, instead, they let their eyes speak for themselves.

These two apprentice brothers had a strong bond, they had a concrete basis of trust in each other.

Feng Jin Bo saw that his junior brother was determined, normally he would have yielded but today was different.

Feng Jin Bo felt slightly annoyed, but then he quickly made up his mind, he said: "Hmph, your so stubborn but I have a proposition."

Sima Bu squinted: "What?"

Feng Jin Bo sighed deeply, then he glanced at Sima Bu meaningfully: "Let me use that Jade Wind Hut and I'll introduce you to my sis.."

"Done!" Sima Bu gave Feng Jin Bo a thumbs up. The unconcealed grin on his face was bone-chilling.

Feng Jin Bo: ?_?

Feng Jin Bo was left speechless, this brother of his who would always take dozens of minutes just to decide the color of his underwear didn't even take a second to consider, he was decisive, a little too decisive.

Feng Jin Bo felt a hint of regret in his heart, but soon a fiendish smile appeared on his face as he eyed Bai Ming.

'They are plotting something sinister,' Bai Ming was paying close attention to the three of them the entire time, but even he could not make out what was transpiring in their wicked minds. But whatever it was, there definitely wasn't anything good coming out for him.

He didn't hesitate and directly used the Self-Sword formation three times in a row, swiftly pulling some distance.

"Hurry up, he is getting away!" Kai Ye exclaimed anxiously.

Feng Jin Bo didn't think twice, he quickly tapped his bag of holding and a streak of green light shot out, the green light wilted unveiling a small Hut, the Hut was fully made up of green jade.

'A magical treasure?' Bai Ming's gaze focused.

Feng Jin Bo quickly entered the jade hut and placed both of his palms on the floor and began transferring his spiritual essence crazily, at this moment Sima Bu gestured Kai Ye to follow him, and both of them stood at the entrance of the jade hut. The Jade hut first let out a buzzing sound before chasing after Bai Ming at incredible speed.

At the same time, Sima Bu and Kai Ye had all the free time to start attacking.

Bai Ming's situation became dire.

Earlier, in the process of chasing, the cultivators behind also attacked. But because Bai Ming was always using the flying sword to disrupt them and he also dodged their attacks, he was agile and hard to hit, the cultivators behind him could not succeed.

But now, two Quasi-Yin-Yang realm cultivators had the free time to focus on attacking, they could use more precise methods that possessed a bigger threat.

Bai Ming's pressure intensified, and after a while, he was injured.

"Hahaha, Well done! this person has only so much capability, he only has that annoying sword to depend on. His other methods are all paltry tricks." Feng Jin Bo declared.

"He was injured, to begin with, he was likely wounded by those Paradise Flame beasts." Kai Ye said darkly.

"Even though he has superior flying skills and terrifying flame essence, and that exceptional formation, but seeing him use those same methods repeatedly and also considering the fact that he had previously fought against those beasts, just how much spiritual essence can a peak spirit realm cultivator possess?" Sima Bu said, smiling in the process.

As long as this progressed, they were sure to win.

Their only concern was the mysterious force behind Bai Ming and a possible ambush.

Thus, they were holding back and did not deal any fatal blows.

Bai Ming's situation was quite dangerous.

If this continued to progress, he might die here.

Humans were intelligent and had complex thoughts and ideas, they were much harder to deal with compared to the simpleminded Paradise Flame beasts.

If they really fought head-on, these Quasi-Yin-Yang cultivators were not the match for the Paradise Flame beasts. But their threat towards Bai Ming was much higher than the Paradise Flame Beasts.

Bai Ming had never banked on the two forces fighting each other, but it was mostly to gain some precious time and to split some of their attention from Bai Ming to someone else.

Not all humans were smart and not all were stupid, but those who have experienced life would have naturally picked up a few things here and there.

'This means, I can only rely on the Core regional wall, but if everything else fails I'll have to take a few drastic measures.' Bai Ming's face was colder than a ten-thousand-year-old iceberg,

Bai Ming's eyes suddenly lit up as he flew, he began peeling the skin off his forearms and used his treasure skin to roughly patch the numerous holes on his beast wings, it was a crude move but it gave him another 15% increase in speed, then with even more vigor he flew towards the core area.

The Quasi-Yin-Yang cultivators behind him chased relentlessly.

Along with that group of Paradise Flame beasts.

Soon, the core regional wall appeared in Bai Ming's sight.

The green-copper regional wall was like a fence surrounding the core area, it extend high into the sky, seemingly without an end.

"Oh no, he is going to pass into the regional wall!" Kai Ye realized Bai Ming's intent and shouted.

"A good strategy. We are Quasi-Yin-Yang realm cultivators, after we enter the regional wall, we will face greater constraints than him." Sima Bu muttered.

"Quickly attack, don't let him succeed. Kill that bastard," Feng Jin Bo roared furiously.

The two cultivators' attacks changed qualitatively.

They attacked fiercely, Bai Ming could not block them all, his injuries were getting more severe, some of his bones could be seen through the deep wounds, and he was also purposely holding off on healing them, to give off an impression of weakness.

"Ha-Ha-Ha-Ha," Bai Ming laughed instead: "You dare to attack me, very good, Feng Jin Bo! If I die and master's plans are ruined, we will not let you or your brother off."

Feng Jin Bo's heart skipped a beat, "Continue with your goddamn act of claiming to be part of some alliance, it is just a hoax! I know both the righteous and demonic forces in the Tiannan Province like the back of my hand, why have I never heard of you?"

Bai Ming laughed again, his tone filled with maliciousness and hostility, "Feng Jin Bo, probing is useless here, I will not fall for it. This matter has to be kept confidential, I was dispatched because we were afraid of external interference. Even if you skin me alive, I will not tell you my background. I will even self-detonate my soul, you will not be able to soul search me, Hahaha."

Bai Ming's words made their hearts sink into a bottomless abyss.

Unknown enemies were one of the scariest kind of enemies, if not the scariest. The enemy was hidden while you are out in the open being completely ignorant, you do not know who they are or where they are or what they are conspiring against you.

This was the concern of the three Quasi-Yin-Yang realm cultivators.

From start to finish, they did not think that Bai Ming was spouting nonsense.

After all, Paradise Flame beasts were an extinct species in the outside world, why would an army of them chase after him like this? There had to be a reason.

Since there was a motive, the perpetrators had to have sufficient confidence in their strength to take down this huge mob of Paradise flame beasts.

And just what kind of spirit realm force would be able to take down this army of Paradise Flame beasts? Obviously, only prominent forces!

Bai Ming's words made the three Quasi-Yin-Yang cultivators' attacks slow down, and he obtained some precious time to recover.

The regional wall was right in front of him, Bai Ming could almost escape, but at this crucial juncture, Feng Jin Bo struck!
