Chapter 764 - 122: Saintess’s Pursuit (Part 2)

It actually has a significant suppressive effect on his cultivation power at the moment.

Originally, I intended to risk exposure by using the Invisibility Puppet to cooperate with the Tier Three Array Talisman to break Array Two, but now it’s difficult.

"Thief, where can you run now?"

The voice of the Moon Saintess came from behind, carrying a trace of contempt.

She had just used her status as a Saintess to connect with the domain Grand Array and activate its power, making it apparent that Li Ji’an had walked right into the trap.

The multicolored Luan Bird had already caught up, flapped its wings, and stopped in front of Li Ji’an, completely blocking his way.

Li Ji’an was trapped between the Purple Abyss Array and the Moon Saintess, caught in a dilemma of advance or retreat.

"It seems that today, there’s no avoiding this."

Li Ji’an took a deep breath, suppressing the anxiety in his heart, his gaze gradually turning cold.

He slowly turned around, and his gaze fell upon the Moon Saintess and the multicolored Luan Bird beneath her, speaking in a deep voice: "Fairy, you and I have no grievances or enmity, why pursue me so relentlessly?"

"No grievances or enmity?"

The Moon Saintess sneered, her beautiful visage covered in frost: "You trespassed into Beichen Immortal City intending to infiltrate the Ancestral Origin Province, which is a capital offense. Furthermore, you are a wanted criminal sought by Senior Brother Xuanyue, today you’ll find it hard to escape!"

Before she finished speaking, she waved her jade-like hand: "Luan’er, take action!"

The multicolored Luan Bird let out a sharp screech, wings fiercely flapping, and countless multicolored feathers shot toward Li Ji’an like flying blades.

These feathers seemed soft but were harder than fine steel, carrying a faint True Spirit Water. Once it touches a cultivator’s flesh, it would merge with the body like a parasite, making it difficult to remove.

Li Ji’an’s gaze hardened, flipping his right hand as a small purple-gold shield appeared in his palm.

"Rise!"

He urged his magical power, causing the Seventh Grade magical treasure, the Purple Dragon Shield, to instantly expand to a size of about ten feet, blocking in front of him.

Clang, clang, clang—

The multicolored feathers kept colliding against the Purple Dragon Shield, releasing a series of dense sounds of metallic clashing, as True Spirit Water splattered around.

The Purple Dragon Shield violently trembled, fine scratches appearing on its surface, evidently unable to withstand the attack from the multicolored Luan Bird.

"This spirit pet’s attack power is so formidable!"

Li Ji’an was secretly shocked, not daring to be careless.

His left hand swiftly formed a seal, and he uttered in a low voice: "Appear!"

Buzz!

Four beams of spiritual light flew out from his Qiankun Ring, transforming into four puppets each towering three feet high.

"Go!"

With Li Ji’an’s command, the four Tier Three Mid-Stage Puppets linked together with bloodthirsty chains, instantly forming an array.

The four puppets formed a military formation capable of blocking full-power attacks from a Late-stage Core Formation Ascendant.

"Petty tricks!"

The Moon Saintess sneered disdainfully, waving her jade hand lightly, causing a pale blue water curtain to suddenly cover the four puppets.

In the next moment, Li Ji’an’s pupils constricted.

The opponent had instantly severed his Divine Soul connection with the four puppets.

In doubt, he hurriedly retracted the puppets.

Before Li Ji’an could think further, the multicolored Luan Bird’s eyes flashed red, and it sprayed a rainbow beam from its mouth, shooting toward Li Ji’an.

This beam contained concentrated True Spirit Power, endlessly powerful, twisting the air through the corrosion of True Spirit Water along its path.

Li Ji’an’s face changed dramatically as he clearly felt the terrifying power contained within the beam, which his current mid-stage Golden Core magical shield could not resist.

"Cannot take it head-on!"

Li Ji’an’s mind raced, but the beam from the Luan Bird not only wielded immense power but also had a sealing ability. Coupled with the Array’s influence, he felt his movements slowing down, almost impossible to dodge.

"Illusory Leaf Clone!" Forced to, he could only use this magic technique to escape.

And just before the multicolored beam struck, countless emerald leaves floated down, and Li Ji’an’s figure vanished.

The multicolored beam struck the ground, instantly exploding, forming a pit over a dozen feet in diameter, with residual True Spirit Water swiftly eroding the surrounding rocks.

"So close!"

Li Ji’an rejoiced internally, increasingly aware that amidst the Array’s influence, he couldn’t contend against this duo of person and bird.

At that moment, he no longer hesitated, flipping his left hand to produce another Teleportation Talisman in his palm.

"Still trying to leave? It’s not that easy!"

The Moon Saintess’ gaze turned cold, and she swiftly formed a seal with her jade hand, uttering in a low voice: "Soul-Chasing Shadow-Locking!"

The multicolored Luan Bird beneath her screeched, its eyes glowing red, releasing an invisible aura that instantly locked onto Li Ji’an’s Divine Soul.

Simultaneously, the Teleportation Talisman in Li Ji’an’s hand successfully activated, and a shimmering white light enveloped his figure.

Buzz!

The light flashed, and Li Ji’an’s figure vanished from his original spot.

"You can’t escape!"

The Moon Saintess’ expression remained indifferent.

The next moment, the multicolored Luan Bird beneath her suddenly screeched and flew off in a direction.

Thousands of miles away, in a desolate valley,

Shimmering white light flashed as Li Ji’an’s figure appeared in the valley.

As soon as he landed, he hurriedly consumed a Replenishing Pill, revealing a hint of fatigue on his face.

The consumption of the Teleportation Talisman was enormous, and after activating several, his magical power was indeed hard to sustain.

Most importantly, he now needed to maintain his peak magical power state.

A scan of his Divine Sense behind him felt the difficulty.

The multicolored Luan Bird’s Talent Divine Abilities could lock onto his Divine Soul, even using the Teleportation Talisman couldn’t escape tracing.

Sure enough, three breaths later, a stream of multicolored light appeared above the valley, it was the Moon Saintess and her multicolored Luan Bird.

"Thief, I told you, you’d find it hard to escape!"

The Moon Saintess’ voice carried a hint of triumph as she rode the multicolored Luan Bird, slowly descending, encircling Li Ji’an once more.
