Chapter 389: Chasing to the middle of the mountain

Long Qi had already chased for three or four miles, but the man seemed to be teasing him. If the two were a little further away, he would stand there and wait for him.

It seems that her style of doing things is somewhat similar to Lingxiang's, but Long Qi is very sure that the person in front is definitely not Lingxiang.

Although that person's body shape is similar to Lingxiang's, Lingxiang's shoulders are thinner. Although this person is not strong, he is broader than Lingxiang.

Even though they hadn't seen each other for three years, Long Qi had been thinking about her day and night during these three years. Even a strand of Ling Xiang's hair was deeply engraved in his heart. How could he mistaken her for someone else?
The mountain was covered with lush trees. Even though Long Qi tried to dodge carefully, the branches still left a few scratches on his face. Although it was painful, Long Qi didn't care at all. He just stared at the black shadow in front of him, afraid that he would lose it if he was distracted.

Although it is not Lingxiang, this person must be related to Lingxiang. If we catch this person, we can find out the whereabouts of Lingxiang.

Or, in other words, to find the way to find the spiritual incense...

Three years ago, Lingxiang was taken to the Demon Realm, but the Demon Realm was located in the underworld and living people could not enter at will; even if the gates of hell were wide open on that day in the Central Plains, entering the ghost realm would still depend on luck, not to mention that at that time there would be wandering ghosts everywhere and one would be possessed if one was not careful.

Besides, even if he overcame all difficulties and entered the underworld, the underworld was so vast that where could he, a mortal, find the capital of the demons?
Since the man in front is related to Lingxiang, he should be able to lead the way, so the most important thing right now is to catch him!
Long Qi calmed down, held his breath, and intensified his efforts.

Since taking the Hanyu Pill, the Qi in his body has been stagnant. Not to mention the Cloud Step, even ordinary Qinggong is very difficult to use. Fortunately, there is a move called "Dragon Wind" in "Dragon Chasing Sword Technique". Although it is a sword-moving step and cannot be considered a Qinggong, its footwork turns and the power generated by the feet during kicking can be used in pursuit.

Slightly modifying the use of Youlongshengfeng could help deal with the current situation, but it was not a good idea to keep chasing like this. We had to find a way to make the person in front stop.

Long Qi was able to perform some magic now, but the distance was quite far and he was afraid that he could not reach the man. He also had no hidden weapons, which made him feel troubled for a moment.

It's also my fault! If I had been able to calm down and practice talisman techniques with Lingxiang, I wouldn't be in such a passive position now!

Long Qi regretted his decision, but it was of no avail. He could only try his best to keep up with the man in black.

Fortunately, the man in black stopped not long after, but Long Qi did not rush to catch up with him. He just hid behind a tree and observed.

This place is located halfway up the mountain, surrounded by sparse trees, and is much more spacious than the road ahead. A little further away, you can see a temple, the outer wall of which has collapsed by more than half, and you can vaguely see weeds growing inside the temple, which looks very dilapidated.

Looking at the man in black again, there was only a back view, standing motionless with his hands behind his back, as if waiting for something. Long Qi pondered for a moment, decided not to hide anymore, and walked towards the open space.

Although he didn't know what this person's purpose was, he was waiting for him on the road just now, so it was obvious that he was coming for him. And he followed him very closely all the way, so it was impossible for this person not to know that he was nearby, so it was really meaningless for him to hide like this.

Even though Long Qi's footsteps were slow, the man did not look back. Long Qi's heart was inevitably beating fast, but he did not stop.

"Your Excellency must have deliberately lured me here. Why did you bother to do this?"

Although Long Qi is concerned about Lingxiang, the best thing to do right now is to find out the purpose of the visitor.

The man seemed not to have heard what Long Qi said. He just stood there without answering. Long Qi frowned: Is he deaf?

At this moment, the man suddenly turned around and slapped Long Qi with his palm. The wind from his palm was whistling, and it was obvious that Long Qi was very strong. Fortunately, Long Qi was prepared. Just as the man turned around, he took a step back and raised his hand to punch him. When the fists and palms collided, the air around the two of them suddenly scattered, carrying fallen leaves and gravel, and dust flew everywhere.

Long Qi used 70% of his strength in this punch, but he didn't expect that he was only tied with the man in black. His brows tightened even more and he became more alert.

Punches and palms confronted each other, as if they were competing to see who was stronger. The two were evenly matched, and neither of them backed off. The scattered dust had already settled, but neither of them had any intention of retreating.

After a moment, the man in black started making hand gestures with his left hand. The gestures were so complicated that Long Qi couldn't figure out what kind of magic it was.

Finger gestures and chanting techniques are originally methods of inducing magic, but those with advanced cultivation can abandon them. Although it will reduce the potential energy of the magic, it is also a convenient method. I heard that those who are more advanced can also speak out and the magic will flow, but nowadays the spiritual veins are declining, it cannot be said that they do not exist, it's just that those great masters rarely appear in the world, so it is difficult to see one.

Among the Yuanqing elders, four elders, Shangqing, Qianyuan, Chengxin and Donghui, were able to do so. Even the True Man Zhaoming, even if he gave up chanting the mantras, still could not do without finger gestures.

As for the one-handed spell, Long Qi only saw Ling Xiang, and many times, Ling Xiang's spells and talismans were different from those in the Langhuan Pavilion book. According to Ling Xiang, she was just too lazy to raise her hand, but Long Qi felt that it was Ling Xiang's own way of cultivation.

The difficulty of pinching the seal with one hand is much more difficult than pinching the seal with two hands. You need to make the seals of both hands with one hand to perform the skill. The reason why Lingxiang can pinch the seal with one hand is that she removed some seals and simplified the complicated seals. Just like her sound transmission talisman, it looks a little different from the one in "Talisman Theory", but it is more effective than the book.

Since the person in front of him can also make hand seals with one hand, it is hard not to associate him with Lingxiang. After all, only Lingxiang would have the time to study those spells to find out which hand seals can be removed.

For the same magic hand seal, if one of the links is wrong, no matter whether it is effective or not, it may be completely different from the original one.

"What is your relationship with Lingxiang?!"

Long Qi asked hurriedly, but at this moment, a huge force suddenly pressed down on him, as if he was carrying a mountain on his back, causing severe pain in his limbs. But even so, Long Qi did not dare to withdraw his force.

In a wrestling match between two parties, if there is no good opportunity, the party who withdraws first is most likely to be injured. However, Long Qi is currently suppressed by the black-clothed man's magic and cannot withdraw his strength easily.

Forget it! Let's try our best to save the situation!
Long Qi raised his hand with difficulty and tried hard to untie the cloth strip on his chest. At the moment the cloth strip fell off, he turned around abruptly, avoiding the palm power of the man in black, and then instantly caught the fallen Seven Star Dragon Abyss.

After several years of training with Wu Ji, Long Yuan had already memorized every move in the four sword manuals. However, due to the confinement of the jade pill in his body, he still found it a little difficult to use them.

But it is more than enough to cope with the current situation.

Long Qi somersaulted on the ground with the help of his sword, and then used the force of his body to swing the sword towards the man in black.

Long Yuan's sword was about to hit him in the face, but the man in black did not panic. He gathered his spirit into his fingers, used his fingers as swords, and easily blocked Long Yuan's sword force.

It is indeed the Lotus Heart Sword Intent!
Long Qixing's eyes widened:

"who are you?!"
