Chapter 201 Ch 201: Rishi's Situation
Somewhere in a desolate place, Rishi was running with speed. His face was anxious, and it seemed that someone was chasing after him.
Suddenly, Rishi felt numerous auras rapidly chasing after him from behind.
"It seems like those people have noticed me a long time ago!"
Rishi's heart skipped a beat. Even without making any assumptions, Rishi knew the identity of these people.
"Humph!"
Rishi let out a cold snort and the corner of his mouth curled up into a strange arc.
"Chi..."
His figure paused for a moment. Then, Rishi suddenly sped. In the darkness of the night, he was like a ray of light, instantly increasing his speed by more than ten times!
In the blink of an eye, Rishi's figure disappeared.
"How is this possible?"
One figure after another suddenly appeared from one direction. They looked in the direction where Rishi had left, and they let out an unconcealable sound of shock.
"This guy's speed is too fast. We can't catch up to him at all!" Someone let out a helpless voice.
"Hmph, even if we can't catch up to him, someone can still chase after him!"
When the words were spoken, one figure after another appeared in the sky. They were like rainbows, and they gave off a tearing sound as they rapidly chased after the person in front of them.
In the night sky, for a moment, the tearing sound of air could be clearly heard.
Taking advantage of the darkness of the night, Rishi's figure appeared especially blurry. This was also the reason why he chose to move forward in the darkness. Rishi's speed was shockingly fast.
However, Rishi frowned once more. He could feel that there were still a few more auras locking onto him from behind. Although the other party's speed was not as fast as his, he was still persistently staring at him.
"These guys are really haunting me!" Rishi felt a chill in his heart.
"Clang!"
A heavy weapon suddenly appeared as it let out a crisp sound.
In front of Rishi, a person holding a halberd stood in the air. He was floating in the air like an immortal. In his hand was a long halberd which was flickering with divine light that made the halberd look majestic and awe-inspiring.
"Senior Brother!"
Looking at this man, Rishi's face couldn't help but tremble. This person was a disciple of Profound Star Sect and Rishi's senior brother. His name is Fawad, and both of them were disciples under the same master.
"Let's go!" Fawad waved his hand and a crazed expression appeared on his face as he shouted.
"Thank you, Senior Brother!"
Rishi understood what Fawad was thinking and felt touched, but his figure became even faster.
"Chi!"
Behind him, a violent tearing sound echoed across the starry sky. A force that was like a tidal wave poured out in a mighty manner, cutting the sky in half.
Fawad unleashed his long halberd. A wave of energy that shook the heavens and the earth was unleashed without any concealment.
Not only did it bury Rishi's path, but it also shook the group of people who were chasing after him.
"Clang!"
The sound of a dragon resounded. A long sword was held in the enemy's hand, and a threatening sword aura erupted.
That person lifted up the long sword as his robe fluttered in the wind. It was as if the sword's aura was soaring into the sky at an incredible speed. It rushed into the sky, meeting with the attack unleashed by Fawad's halberd.
"Boom!"
Two mighty energies collided with each other, creating a loud collision sound.
"Fawad! Don't meddle in other people's business!"
The man's body slightly retreated. The longsword in his hand fiercely rubbed against the void. Only then did he manage to stand in the middle. For a moment, it seemed like he had seen the outcome of who was stronger and who was weaker.
Facing Fawad, he did not have the slightest confidence in fighting him. Fawad was also called the crazy man. Fawad was now swinging his energy, creating a huge wave that shook the sky, forcing him to take a step back.
"Weng!"
The halberd was waved violently. Fawad pointed his finger at the opponent and said with a cold smile on his face.
"You can't!"
It was just two words, but it contained endless confidence.
"Let's go!"
That person's face kept changing and twisting. What Fawad said was an endless humiliation to him, but he knew that if he insisted on fighting Fawad, he would never be able to defeat him. He might even suffer more humiliation. Thus, he chose to leave for the time being.
"Hmph..."
Fawad let out a cold snort as he watched the group of people leave.
After that person escaped, Fawad looked at Rishi and asked: "How was that?"
"Awesome!" Rishi gave him a thumbs up and spoke. After that, he again asked: "Senior brother, what should we do now?"
"Sigh!" Fawad sighed and replied: "You have obtained something that will surely bring disaster to us if we don't return to the sect as soon as possible. You should escape and try to return to the sect. I will stay here and try to delay those people as much as possible. Let's hope we could return safely!"
"Senior brother!" Rishi looked at him and wanted to say something. But he knew what is more important. The thing in his hand is a treasure. If he wants to stay safe and safe Fawad, he has to return to the sect and tell his master everything. Only she could now help him and Fawad.
Thus, nodding his head, Fawad once again started running. Rishi's figure flickered. It was as if lightning had appeared beneath his feet. Under the powerful force, he flew through the air at a speed of a hundred meters, and after running for a while until the spirit energy in his body was depleted, he slowly came to a stop.
Rishi quickly observed everything around him before slowly sitting down.
"I'm afraid that the people coming for me must be fighting Senior Brother now. I've run for several hundred miles now. Even if they won't catch up to me in a short period of time, they'll surely come for me sooner or later. I have to hurry."
A wisp of lightning flowed between Rishi's brows. The spirit energy in his body had recovered by more than half after circulating his cultivation technique for a while. After that, he took out a pill from the spatial ring and stuffed it into his mouth. After that, he started running wildly once again.
Rushing, resting, running...
This repeated action continued until noon the next day. Rishi finally stopped in a small city. After resting in this small city for a while, Rishi bought a black horse and once again entered the running state.
However, Rishi did not realize that after he left on his horse, a group of people quickly appeared behind him. This group of people carried a ferocious and evil aura, and their faces were filled with killing intent.
"It's that kid. I didn't expect our luck to be so good. Quick, send a message to the higher-ups, hurry up!"
A burly man with a steel sword in his hand revealed a sinister smile as he loudly ordered.
Half a month later...
The scorching sun hung high in the sky and the astral wind was rising.
A fierce gale started blowing in the desert.
Yes, this was a desert. This desert was famous for being its fierce sand tornados. Countless people died here after encountering sand tornados. In this desert, it is difficult to find a direction with yellow sand covering the sky and earth.
Beneath the ground, there were even numerous poisonous insects and venomous snakes.
At this moment, Rishi could hear the terrifying roars of beasts echoing in his ears.
It was rumored that this desert was originally full of vitality, but it had become like this because of a catastrophe. It was precisely because the environment here is too harsh that no dynasty or Empire choose to control and manage it.
"Swish!"
Rishi took out a piece of dried meat from his spatial ring and stuffed it into his mouth. He slowly chewed and swallowed it, and his body slowly began to move forward.
This was only the outer region of the desert.
The environment wasn't really bad. What he needed to go through was the worst environment. Only then could he cross the desert and appear in a city closer to the Profound Star Sect.
"Gulp..."
After swallowing the dried meat, Rishi took out another bottle of water from his spatial ring and slowly swallowed it.
In the desert, if there is no water replenishment, even the powerful martial warrior would have a headache.
"Swoosh!"
After walking for about two hours, Rishi's legs suddenly went limp.
After that, the sand under his feet collapsed like an invisible mouth and a huge sand vortex formed.
Rishi was slightly stunned at first, but he quickly reacted. He stepped on the ground and with his superb movement technique, Rishi quickly dodged the vortex.
