“A bounty?”
The gorgeous woman frowned, “To be frank, Mr. Wei Guang, we have tried this method before but it was of little avail. Jiang Bai never appears in populated places.”
“Hmph, just because he doesn’t show up in the short term doesn’t mean he won’t show up in his entire life. I don’t believe that this brat can hide in the wild forever!”
Wei Guang roared furiously, “This is my disgrace. In my life, no one has ever made such a fool of me. If I can’t even handle such trash, wouldn’t I have lost all face?”
Wei Guang snorted coldly, then turned around and started to walk back.
The further he walked, the angrier he felt. He was actually fooled by a guy like Jiang Xiaobai, he kicked the ground in his fit of rage, creating a large hole.
For a moment, the earth shook.
The many powerful people following him all felt a chill run down their spines. Most of these people had followed Wei Guang for a long time and knew his temperament.
At this moment, it was obviously Wei Guang’s most furious moment in his life, no one dared to interrupt him.
The beautiful woman also twitched her mouth slightly, “After we go back, let’s report this incident to the Lord of the City and let him make the decision…”
After all, this situation is no longer something that a small pawn like her can handle.
In a mountain range, lush and desolate.
Everywhere was filled with wild and vicious aura, grass snakes and wild beasts ran rampant in this mountain range.
Jiang Xiaobai was sitting cross-legged on a branch of a large tree, the foliage was dense, hiding him. Added with the Divine Concealment technique, it would take some time for even highly-skilled masters to find him.
At this moment, his ghastly injuries were recovering at a visible speed, and he was stuffing a large handful of elixirs into his mouth.
If anyone saw this, they would definitely stamp their feet and curse: What a spendthrift!
The elixirs in Jiang Xiaobai’s hand were emanating an astonishing aura. A cursory feeling was enough to tell that the grade of the elixirs was certainly not low.
But now, these elixirs that were worth a fortune outside were being eaten like sweets.
Crunching on the elixirs, Jiang Xiaobai’s pale face finally regained some color.
“Damn, I am still too weak. I can gain some help in the realm face, but in the aspect of martial arts foundation, there is no comparison.”
Jiang Xiaobai sighed, his face full of sorrow.
If he continued like this, he could only survive for a while on the run. Once he revealed himself, he would face a more terrifying line-up of pursuit.
After this stroke of luck, the next time the people of the Thousand Yuan Dynasty saw him, they would definitely go all out.
“I only have a few billion top-grade spirit stones in hand, I don’t know if I could break through to the Transcendence stage after absorbing them… Moreover, even if I break through to the Transcendence stage, it wouldn’t be much use,”
As Jiang Xiaobai was recovering his injuries, he was also contemplating his future development.
Originally in his plan, he wanted to absorb all the spirit stones he had saved up in one go to enhance his cultivation.
But after a recent attempt, he found out that a few billion top-grade spirit stones were nowhere near enough!
Even if he used all his wealth to enhance his strength, there wouldn’t be a significant breakthrough.
“I also need to take care of the two acquired spirit treasures at the same time, otherwise, wouldn’t they be as good as firewood sticks in my hands?”
Jiang Xiaobai sighed, took out Deep Rainbow and the Seven Treasure Pagoda, as he looked at these two ‘dead’ treasures, he felt a wave of indignation.
“You two, why do you have to eat so much, you eat more than I do!” Jiang Xiaobai fumed.
Deep Rainbow trembled slightly, at the same time a thought was transmitted to Jiang Xiaobai’s mind.
“Huh? You’re saying that other than spirit stones, you can also feed on the spiritual energy of other grade treasures?” Jiang Xiaobai frowned slightly.
Deep Rainbow shook again, and at the same time the Seven Treasure Pagoda on the side also chimed in, indicating that the fastest way to remove the seal is to eat the spiritual energy of other treasures!
“Damn! Why didn’t you tell me this earlier!” Jiang Xiaobai stood up immediately.
Although he was a bit annoyed, he was still excited.
In this way, his losses in cultivating the acquired spirit treasures could be greatly reduced.
After all, he didn’t value the treasures of this world. Even the finest divine-level treasures couldn’t match the current Deep Rainbow.
It’s just that Deep Rainbow is still undergoing the unsealing process.
“Had you said this earlier, I would have fed all those treasures to you in the first place.” Jiang Xiaobai said regretfully.
“Never mind, let’s forget about this for now. I’ve recovered most of my injuries, this is a good opportunity to look at the Fighting Battle Scriptures.” Jiang Xiaobai hurriedly took out a jade slip from the system storage space.
What was recorded in it, was the Fighting Battle Scriptures!
Without much thought, Jiang Xiaobai quickly immersed himself in browsing.
The information recorded in the Fighting Battle Scriptures was too valuable, all of them were experiences in battle. Moreover, there were also recordings on some special techniques for exerting force, how to refine and use spiritual power, etc.
Not only that, but any record that Jiang Xiaobai had read would immediately fuse with him.
No need for him to comprehend it on his own!
“What a treasure!”
Jiang Xiaobai’s eyes were shining with excitement, he plunged head first into the Fighting Battle Scriptures, not caring about time.
He spent the whole night on it, when the first rays of sunlight of the early morning fell on Jiang Xiaobai’s shoulder, he suddenly opened his eyes. At the bottom of his eyes, there was a dominant golden-red aura!
Boom!
A wave of air spread out from Jiang Xiaobai as the center. At this moment, Jiang Xiaobai was truly reborn.
Whoosh!
His figure vanished from the tree branch like a ghost, upon his next appearance, he was at the edge of a cliff a mile away.
The speed was so fast, it had increased more than two-fold compared to before!
Not only that, by making use of the Fighting Battle Scriptures, Jiang Xiaobai found that his usage of the Divine Concealment technique and escape arts had greatly improved.
Now his escape art was very fluid, and the speed was exceedingly impressive.
And the most significant improvement was the Divine Concealment!
Now he could completely shield himself from someone in the late stage of Dividing the gods!
His chances of survival were high!
Then Jiang Xiaobai started swinging Deep Rainbow, a series of sword flowers dazzled people, in the smooth flow there was an endless ferocious killing intent.
At the end of the sword routine, Jiang Xiaobai was almost smiling.
“Without exaggeration, if there were ten of me from before, I could still thrash them!”
Jiang Xiaobai was excited, “Looks like, the five minutes of life-and-death panic yesterday weren’t in vain, the harvest was huge!”
After calming his emotions, Jiang Xiaobai started to calculate the help he currently had on hand.
Quite little, the only useful one was probably one chance to try out the Nine Bend Yellow River formation.
And it was still a nerfed version of it…
As for spirit stones, he had a total of more than 800 million, piecing them together bit-by-bit, he could still enhance a fair bit of strength.
“Very good, although I’m still missing a lot, but I’ve got the power to protect myself!”
Jiang Xiaobai said as he looked in the direction of the Thousand Yuan Dynasty, his eyes full of coldness..
