Chapter 442: Chapter 319 Return to the City_1

In the Spirit Stone Mine, Chen Mobai and the other six watched all the Qi Practitioners leave before saying their goodbyes.

If the Teleportation Array couldn’t be used, then their last resort would be to escape by other means.

Everyone departed in different directions. In the end, it all came down to who had the best luck.

After bidding farewell, the remaining Foundation Establishment Cultivators turned into streaks of Spiritual Light, disappearing into the sky.

One fled towards Sky Country, another towards Rainbow Country in Liu Jia Mountain, while Weng Chuanyou and Yue Tianheng chose to head for Frost Country, under the jurisdiction of Snow-blowing Palace.

Another person, surprisingly headed directly towards the heart of Rock Country.

It seemed that the mindset was: the more dangerous the place, the safer it would be.

“Chen, where will you go?”

Only Xi Yisheng and Chen Mobai were left. The former asked the latter.

“I’m headed for Rolling Thunder Mountain.”

That meant straight into the arms of Ji Dingjin’s large army. But Xi Yisheng did not voice his confusion. Instead, he just waved his hand, transforming into a Sword Light and heading toward Frost Country.

Once everyone had disappeared, Chen Mobai stood alone in the now deserted Spirit Stone Mine and sighed deeply.

The Short Teleportation Talisman could only be used by a single person. He could only wish the rest of the Divine Wood Sect disciples safe returns to the Sect.

He pulled out a sealed jar of wine from his storage bag and popped it open with a strike. It looked as if a sharp sword had cut open the seal.

After taking a big gulp, Chen Mobai turned to leave the place.

Suddenly, a yellow Spiritual Light descended from the sky like a meteor and hurled violently towards him.

With a loud rumbling sound…

The entire Spirit Stone Mine seemed unable to withstand the impact and began shaking violently.

Chen Mobai retreated to mid-air, standing above the clouds, watching the dust fill the sky below him.

A towering figure clad in full armor appeared before him—Ji Dingjin.

“Oh, only you are left it seems.”

Ji Dingjin looked around and seeing that the place was deserted, his brow furrowed unconsciously.

“You arrived fast. It seems this Spirit Stone Mine is indeed very important to your Shake Mountain Top.”

As Chen Mobai said this, he raised his wine jar, took another swig, then sat on his Red Misty Cloud Silk—by all appearances, intending to have a chat with Ji Dingjin.

“Preserving your lives is the most important thing to us.”

Ji Dingjin’s fist clenched, a powerful surge of qi exploded out from it.

But an Ancient Bronze Mirror materialized and blocked in front of Chen Mobai.

Ji Dingjin’s horrifying fist strength, enough to shatter a small mountain, only managed to make the Rank-3 Magic Artifact tremble slightly before dissipating.

“It’s very brave of you to stay behind, to cover your Sect member’s escape. But if I were you, I would have been the first to flee.”

Ji Dingjin, noting that Chen Mobai was the only one left and considering his status and position, inferred that he had voluntarily stayed behind.

Even though he admired this, as an enemy, Ji Dingjin reluctantly knew he had to kill this genius from Divine Wood Sect who represented the greatest chance of reaching Core Formation.

“Even without the help of Elder Nan, I doubt you can kill me all by yourself.”

Chen Mobai was very confident that he could escape from this body cultivator at the peak of Foundation Establishment, thanks to his Short Teleportation Talisman—a spatial tool that a Foundation Establishment Cultivator could not block.

“Overconfident! I admit you are very talented and have a Rank-3 Magic Artifact, but if I’m willing to risk my life, I can still drag you down to Huangquan with me. Moreover, I only need to hold you off. Once my Shake Mountain Top cultivator army arrives, we can use the Large Formation and numerical advantage to seal your fate.”

Ji Dingjin bloviated, but Chen Mobai, holding all the aces, just laughed and took another long drink from his jar.

This audacious and carefree attitude of Chen Mobai, who seemed ready to die, made Ji Dingjin sigh inwardly, thinking how great it would be if this young man was a disciple of their Shake Mountain Top.

“Ji Zhenshi is nearing death. You still have the mood to besiege me here?”

However, the next words out of Chen Mobai’s mouth made Ji Dingjin explode with fury.

“Even if Zhou Shengqing and Mo Douguang join forces, they still don’t understand the terror of the Void Law Body. Moreover, after Elder Nan of Liu Jia Mountain breached the Rolling Thunder Mountain, he already went to Shake Mountain Top. Your schemes from Divine Wood Sect will never succeed.”

“Go to Shake Mountain Top? I think he should try to escape back to Liu Jia Mountain.”

Despite his mocking tone, Chen Mobai was worried about his two disciples.

He hadn’t expected that Elder Nan could breach Rolling Thunder Mountain. Fu Zongjue should have been able to hold up.

Or perhaps there were unexpected changes that he was unaware of.

But now was not the time to think about these things.

Chen Mobai finished the last bit of wine in his jar, wiped his mouth with his sleeve’s edge, and then laughed heartily as he threw the empty jar at Ji Dingjin.

With a “pop”!

The jar was directly crushed by Ji Dingjin’s palm. Then, the body cultivator from Shake Mountain Top at the peak of Foundation Establishment, expanded both his eyes and body. He channeled black and red Spiritual Power, which surged dramatically as he dashed quickly into the air.

Looking up at his opponent close by, Chen Mobai stared with intense eyes. Two invisible blades formed from Divine Sense erupted instantly, and in the blink of an eye, they cut into Ji Dingjin’s Sea of Consciousness.

Although Ji Dingjin was a cultivator at the peak of Foundation Establishment, he had focused so much on increasing his physical strength that his Divine Sense was his weak point.
