Demon Gate Player

Chapter 31: Escape

Pang Yue never expected that his life would be determined by someone's words.

Dust and light filled the sky.

His face changed drastically, and he quickly activated the Divine Light of Separation and Regret to protect himself, shouting, "Senior, please let me explain!"

The dust and light disappeared when they hit the Divine Light of Separation and Regret.

However, Pang Yue's mana quickly depleted.

Although he had obtained the Heavenly Book of Separation and Regret and saved a lot of mana, he still felt overwhelmed at this moment.

"Pang Yue, as a high-level demonic treasure recognizes you as its master, it means that you are a pure demonic cultivator, in tune with demonic intent. If you were a righteous cultivator, how could you be recognized by a demonic treasure?" Xi Yueming's voice came faintly.

"And once recognized by a high-level demonic treasure, you can never escape in this lifetime, unless you can break through the Primordial Spirit and counteract the demonic treasure... But as you know, there hasn't been a Primordial Spirit cultivator in this realm for tens of thousands of years..."

"Even if you are not currently a demonic cultivator, given time, the demonic intent on the demonic treasure will erode you."

"You can't turn back now."

The more Pang Yue listened, the colder his heart became, and in the end, he couldn't find any words to say.

He sighed deeply and summoned the Seven Kill Sword. With his body and sword as one, he instantly wrapped Xiong Ying in the Divine Light of Separation and Regret, then swiftly shot out.

Thunder roared.

The sword light flashed and disappeared from Xi Yueming's spiritual sense, leaving the Two-In-One Dust Array.

"The sword qi and thunderous sound, worthy of being Sun Yanyan's disciple!" Xi Yueming murmured to herself.

Then, she took out a jade pendant and said softly, "Senior Martial Brother, a Dao Foundation cultivator with a high-level demonic treasure has escaped from the array. The demonic treasure on this person is extremely strange, so don't let him get away!"

"Understood."

A magnetic and steady voice came from the jade pendant.

Xi Yueming put away the jade pendant, thought for a moment, and decided to inform Sun Yanyan as soon as possible.

She disappeared from where she stood.

...

Escaping from the Two-In-One Dust Array.

Pang Yue immediately dispelled the Divine Light of Separation and Regret.

When he turned his head, he saw a ball of hazy light spinning in the palm of a towering demonic cultivator.

Inside the ball, familiar auras dissipated one after another.

Among the Dao Foundation experts who participated in the Heavenly Demon Pill Banquet, at least five Gold Core cultivators had been worn down by the Two-In-One Dust Array.

Among them were four major Gold Core cultivators of the demonic sect.

In other words, the demonic sect would lose at least nine Gold Core cultivators!

With this, the righteous path would have an absolute advantage in the struggle against the demonic sect!

"Sister, it's not safe to stay here. Let's leave quickly!" Pang Yue put down Xiong Ying and prepared to continue fleeing.

Suddenly, a tall and handsome figure appeared in front of them.

"You two should stay." The man wore wide robes and a high crown, followed by seven or eight men and women, all Dao Foundation cultivators.

His own mana was powerful, surpassing Xi Yueming, and he was also a major Gold Core cultivator.

Azure Cloud Mountain's Gao Chong.

He was not only famous for his cultivation level and status, but also because his daughter was recognized as the number one beauty in the cultivation world.

Pang Yue sighed and clasped his hands, "Senior Gao, my master is Sun Yanyan of the Cloud Heaven Sect. Fifty years ago, I was ordered to infiltrate the White Bone Demon Sect for today's events."

Upon hearing this, Gao Chong's expression changed slightly.

The group of Dao Foundation cultivators behind him looked at Pang Yue with curiosity.

Xiong Ying's face turned pale, and she discreetly distanced herself from Pang Yue.

Gao Chong took out a jade pendant and exchanged a few words through sound transmission. Gradually, his expression returned to calm, making it impossible to guess his thoughts.

After a while, he sighed softly, "Pang Junior, I'm sorry, but the fate of the demonic path has come to an end. You have been recognized by a demonic treasure, and keeping you alive would be a disaster."

As he finished speaking, he pointed his finger.

A tremendous force that shattered the void suddenly enveloped Pang Yue. In just a few breaths, Pang Yue would be crushed to pieces.

The Finger of Annihilation.

Facing a Gold Core cultivator, Pang Yue had almost no power to resist.

He smiled bitterly, never expecting to end up in such a situation.

In the blink of an eye, a scroll of glass flew out from his body.

With a rustling sound, the scroll unfolded and, before Gao Chong could make a move, it swiftly trapped him inside.

The light on the book flickered and hovered in the air, motionless.

Pang Yue felt the pressure on him suddenly relieved.

His expression changed and he turned into a sword light, fleeing towards the distance.

"Don't go!"

"Stay!"

"Fellow Daoist, please stay!"

Several disciples from Azure Cloud Mountain Dao Foundation, led by Gao Chong, immediately moved to intercept.

The sword light of the Seven Kill Sword flashed white, breaking the sound barrier in an instant. With a few flashes, it evaded the siege of the crowd and escaped at extreme speed.

On the other side, Xiong Ying also immediately sacrificed a bone shuttle, seizing the opportunity to fly away.

In the desolate sky above the Gobi Desert.

A white sword light flashed by, leaving a thin white mark in the azure sky.

After the sword light, eight streaks of light flew past at different speeds.

Among them, the fastest streak of light was almost as fast as Pang Yue, closely following behind him.

The other seven streaks of light could only watch as the distance between them and the two in front widened!

After a cup of tea's time, the two in front completely disappeared from sight.

The group had no choice but to stop.

"Don't worry, I have Senior Sister Gao's positioning talisman. I see that Pang Yue's mana is depleted. As long as Senior Sister Gao catches up with him and entangles him, we can catch up..."

"That's right! Senior Sister Gao has the Law Treasure bestowed by Senior Brother Gao. Capturing Pang Yue will be a piece of cake."

"I wonder how Senior Brother Gao is doing right now. Why don't we split up? You guys continue to chase Pang Yue, and I'll go back and check on Senior Brother Gao."

"I'll go with you. They have enough people here."

Among the seven people, four continued to follow Senior Sister Gao's positioning talisman and pursue.

The other three returned to where Gao Chong was trapped.

...

In the sky.

The Heavenly Book of Separation and Regret trembled lightly and disappeared from its original position.

A piece of glass crystal fell on the Gobi Desert.

Inside the crystal was none other than Gao Chong himself.

A dignified Gold Core cultivator, facing the Heavenly Book of Separation and Regret, was sealed in the blink of an eye.

In an instant.

A flash of light appeared in the sky, revealing an old man in a black robe with white hair.

The old man stepped on a three-foot green blade, flew on his sword, and carried a huge yellow gourd on his back, emitting a strong aroma of wine.

The old man saw Gao Chong falling to the ground and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes. He pointed his finger, and the green blade under his feet slashed down, landing on the crystal.

Clang!

In the blink of an eye, the flying sword struck the crystal thousands of times!

Crack!

A crack appeared on the crystal.

Then, the crystal shattered with a bang.

Gao Chong leaped out and clasped his fists in gratitude to the old man. "Fellow Daoist Ren, thank you very much!"

The old man was none other than Ren Cang, the Gold Core Elder of Cloud Heaven Sect.

"Who could trap Fellow Daoist?" Ren Cang took off the yellow gourd, took a big sip of wine, and asked with a mouthful of alcohol.

Gao Chong replied impatiently, "It was none other than the disciple of your esteemed sect..."

As he spoke, he recounted the whole story.

Xi Yueming was ahead, followed by Gao Chong.

Both of them believed that Pang Yue had been recognized as the master by the demonic treasure and would never be able to escape from it, meaning there was no turning back.

After hearing the story, Ren Cang frowned and said, "Fellow Daoist Gao acted rashly. The demonic treasure is also a Law Treasure. It can be used for good or evil. Why did you want to kill our sect disciple right from the start?"

"You're mistaken."

A soft and pleasant voice came from the sky.

Then, two streaks of light descended from the sky, revealing Azure Cloud Mountain Elder Xi Yueming and Cloud Heaven Sect Elder Sun Yiyan.

At this moment, Sun Yiyan's face looked unsightly, obviously aware of what had happened to Pang Yue. He asked in a deep voice, "Brother Gao, which direction did my disciple go?"

Gao Chong's face suddenly changed. "Oh no, Junior Sister went after him!"

After speaking, he turned into a thunderbolt and quickly flew away.

Sun Yiyan also transformed into a sword light and chased after him.

"I'll go and take a look as well..."

Ren Cang took a sip of wine, stepped on the flying sword, and leisurely ascended into the sky, seemingly slow but actually fast, chasing towards the horizon.

Xi Yueming's beautiful eyes flickered as she thought to herself, "Cloud Heaven Sect seems to have other intentions. I need to quickly settle the matter with the demonic statue and then bring the formation diagram to assist Senior Brother Gao."

...

When the three disciples of Azure Cloud Mountain returned, there was no one left in the original place.
