Primordial Star Scripture

```

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The Fiery Cloud Arrows were immensely powerful, and even without hitting Ye Chen, they directly pierced through one giant tree after another in the forest, creating bowl-sized holes in the trunks.

It even continuously shot through four or five giant trees, each over a meter in diameter, before the True Qi Power on the arrows was completely depleted, causing them to fall.

If these arrows were to strike a person, even a cultivator at the sixth level of True Qi Realm would suffer severe injuries!

Ye Chen, who was in the midst of a downpour of arrows, was incredibly agile; he managed to dodge these swiftly fired arrows every time, without even slightly reducing his forward fleeing speed!

Ye Chen, while advancing rapidly, used the middle-grade Yellow Class movement technique "Startling Goose Steps", with each tip-toe touching the ground propelling him over ten meters forward.

While running, he had fully opened up the Thirty-Three Meridian Wheel and the Eight Extraordinary Meridians that he had completed cultivating, and the extraordinary effects of "Meridian Refining Art" from the Primordial Star Scripture had greatly increased the recovery speed of his True Qi, with the True Qi spent using "Startling Goose Steps" rapidly replenishing.

At the same time, his perception of the surrounding environment had greatly increased, and he had everything within a twenty-meter radius completely within his grasp!

It was for this reason that he was able to predict in advance the direction of the incoming Fiery Cloud Arrows and dodge them every time!

Fleeing!

Ye Chen was rapidly advancing ahead.

Chasing!

Zhou Hai and his eight followers, riding on Exotic Beasts, were in hot pursuit behind.

The incredible speed of True Qi, combined with the furious roars of the Exotic Beasts, echoed throughout the silent mountains. Moments later, this frenzied chase burst out of the silent mountains and into various regions of the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain.

Within these mountain regions of Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain, many cultivators were hunting Demon Beasts.

When they saw this crazy scene amid the mountains and forests, each of them was stunned for a long time.

"What's going on? Why are so many people chasing one person?"

"Fiery Lion Beast, it's Zhou Hai!"

"Zhou Hai is chasing that person in the front, who is he to have provoked Zhou Hai?"

This great commotion caught the attention of many people around the perimeter of Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain, and even many followed to find out what was going on.

However, soon many were left far behind.

The speed of Ye Chen and Zhou Hai was simply too fast; most of the cultivators hunting Demon Beasts in these regions were at the fifth or sixth stages of the True Qi Realm and there weren't many who could outpace either of them.

Half an hour later, when Ye Chen entered a dense forest, even the eight followers behind Zhou Hai had lost track of him.

Zhou Hai, whose mount was the Fiery Lion Beast, had already left it with his followers in a vine-dense mountain region earlier, and only he continued the relentless pursuit of Ye Chen.

The longer the chase, the more Zhou Hai's rage intensified, and eventually, his chilling intent to kill pervaded his entire being.

He would not rest until he had personally killed Ye Chen!

...

In a mountain region over eighty li behind Ye Chen.

Lin Jing stood atop a mountain peak, looking ahead.

Her beautiful eyes were filled with worry.

Not only had she lost track of Ye Chen but also of Zhou Hai and his followers.

"What should I do? Zhou Hai is at the seventh level of the True Qi Realm and is the son of an elder of the Heavenly Net Sect; he must have no shortage of formidable methods. With so many chasing Ye Chen, how can he escape?"

"It was me who led him into Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain; if anything happens to him, then I..."

Thinking of this, Lin Jing's pretty face turned deathly pale.

Behind her, Hong Man and Fang Shan were also looking ahead, their faces equally pale.

"It'll be okay, it has to be."

"Ye Chen is so powerful, and since he made this choice, he must have a way to deal with it!"

In another mountain region thirty li behind Ye Chen.

Zhou Hai's eight followers were lying atop their Exotic Beasts, gasping for breath, while Zhou Hai's mount, the eighth-order Demon Beast Fiery Lion Beast, was sniffing the air in search of the track to follow.

"This kid can really run!"

"I've already lost more than half of my True Qi, and yet he's still holding on! And running so fast!"

Each of them at the sixth level of the True Qi Realm, they were unexpectedly outdistanced by Ye Chen, who was at the fifth level, leaving them feeling both angry and somewhat embarrassed.

"Don't worry, with the Young Master after him, he's as good as trapped!"

"The Young Master's realm of True Qi is higher than his, and he has cultivated a powerful movement technique. Where can he escape to?"

"Once we reunite with the Young Master, that kid will have likely already been sent by the Young Master to meet the King of Hell. Then, I'll shoot my Fiery Cloud Arrows into his corpse a few more times and vent this rage!"

After a round of complaints, the eight followers continued the chase, following the Fiery Lion Beast that had found the tracking direction.

Ten li, twenty li, fifty li, one hundred li, three hundred li!

The further Ye Chen fled, the more vigorous his breath became.

With the five huge True Qi Vortexes operating at top speed, all his meridians opened up, and True Qi flowing crazily within him, he felt a sense of brazen and unfettered spirit.

Martial Arts world, the rivers and lakes of Martial Arts!

Now that he, having just reached the fifth layer of True Qi, could leave many stronger opponents who surpassed his realm far behind him, the day when he'd become a mighty cultivator in the Spirit Sea Realm, capable of flying and Earth Escaping, what a bold and unrestrained life that would be!

It wouldn't be in vain that he had descended upon this Barbaric Wilderness World!

"You can really keep up with the chase!"

Feeling the persistence of Zhou Hai's aura still closely pursuing him from behind, Ye Chen glanced at the broken sword fragment in his hand.

"Over three hundred li, the others have long been shaken off."

"Only Zhou Hai remains."

"Since you refuse to give up, then let's test out the Sword Intent Realm I've touched upon!"

Buzz!

Ye Chen carefully stored the sword fragment and a flash of sharpness appeared in his eyes, with a sword light flashing across them.

Immediately after, he stopped in the newly entered mountain valley.

Boom!

Just a few breaths after he halted, an astounding figure rushed over, and with the True Qi dispersing, the figure of Zhou Hai was revealed.

"Not running anymore?"

Zhou Hai looked at Ye Chen, hehe sneering coldly.

His heart tightened with hatred; the youth before him clearly exuded the aura of the fifth layer of True Qi, yet he managed to keep up with him for so long without slowing down.

Even his subordinates at the sixth layer of True Qi had been lost.

One could imagine that this youth must have cultivated a powerful movement technique to Great Accomplishment, and he also cultivated an extremely powerful True Qi restoration Cultivation Technique.

Just fifth layer of True Qi, yet able to give a seventh-layer individual a fierce chase, he truly was a genius.

"However, a dead genius can no longer be called a genius," Zhou Hai said, his eyes turning grim as he looked at Ye Chen.

In his heart, Ye Chen was already as good as dead!

Zhou Hai, hailing from the seventh-ranked Heavenly Net Sect, with a father who was a mid-stage powerhouse in the Spirit Sea Realm.

He not only mastered five sets of Yellow Class martial skills, but he had also achieved Great Accomplishment in two superior Yellow Class martial techniques.

Moreover, he had a hidden trump card up his sleeve.

In his eyes, Ye Chen simply wasn't worth his consideration.

In the midst of the valley.

Ye Chen and Zhou Hai stood facing each other.

"Kid, obediently hand over the 'spiritual instrument fragment,' and I might leave your whole corpse," Zhou Hai said to Ye Chen, speaking coldly.

"Leave my whole corpse?"

"Let's see if you have the skill for that!"

Clang!

Ye Chen drew his sword with a resonant sound; the steel sword sang as it was unsheathed. At the same time, the five True Qi Vortices within him stirred, and the surging True Qi swept out, surrounding him in a layer of azure aura.

Fight! Even if you are at the seventh layer of True Qi, even if you are the son of an Elder from the Heavenly Net Sect, wanting my life, why should I hesitate to fight!

Thinking that I would obediently accept death?

In your dreams!

"Quite stubborn!" Zhou Hai said as he saw Ye Chen draw his sword, shaking his head and sneering; yet his voice suddenly deepened: "Well then... die!"

Thump! Thump! Thump!

Zhou Hai flicked his fingers and six silver beads shot directly into the air.

Next, he pinched a spell, and the six beads, originally the size of peach pits, suddenly swelled to the size of washing basins. Each bead shone with silver light and carried an immense force as they hurtled towards Ye Chen.

The speed of these flying beads was incredibly fast, ripping through the air with the sound of thunder, and they struck right in front of Ye Chen in an instant.

Such speed and power far exceeded that of any opponents Ye Chen had previously faced!

Ye Chen's eyes narrowed as he faced the six silver beads. His sword's shadow flickered with dazzling sword light, meeting the silver beads with a counterattack.

Then the sword light and silver beads collided with a loud clash.

In the midst of the vast True Qi surge, the steel sword that Ye Chen wielded under his Torrential Rain Sword Skills was directly smashed into pieces by the silver beads, and even the massive backlash of True Qi sent Ye Chen flying more than fifteen meters, spitting out a large mouthful of blood.

And yet, those six silver beads only slowed for a moment, before hurtling towards Ye Chen again.

Ye Chen had no time to wipe the blood from his mouth; he struck the ground fiercely with his palm, evading the strike from the silver beads narrowly as he deployed the Startling Goose Steps.

"These silver beads!"

Watching the six silver beads, which had shrunk down and flew back to Zhou Hai's hands, Ye Chen was shaken. He could feel that these beads were no ordinary objects.

Seventh layer of True Qi, from the Heavenly Net Sect, Zhou Hai truly was terrifyingly strong!
