Destiny is ashes

Chapter 67 Don’t say you didn’t predict what you said!

The wind is strong and the clouds are rolling up. The fallen leaves are flying like gold foil.

The northwestern mountains are at their busiest in autumn, when wild animals try their best to find supplies for the winter, hunters prepare for pre-snow hunting, herb collectors pick mature herbs, and farmers carry out the final autumn harvest.

And in this northwest, on the edge of the mountains that had been deserted before, there is now a group of people looking for clues and searching for someone.

An Jing held his breath, concealed his aura, and was protected by the sword spirit.

The young man was hiding among the branches of a giant tree, watching coldly as several warriors from the Tianyi Demon Cult searched the area where he had been before.

The first one to catch up with An Jing was not Dachen, nor Tianmo, but the Tianyi Demon Cult.

These elite members of the Demon Cult, all of whom were at the Inner Breath Realm, came on flying shuttles and arrived accurately at the place where An Jing had been hiding before. Then they deployed their forces and conducted a carpet search for An Jing's whereabouts.

If An Jing had not been well prepared and had not erased the many auras and clues he had left behind, he might have really been caught by this group of evil cult warriors.

However, precisely because of this, An Jing did not immediately choose to go to the other world and let this group of demon cult warriors search the air, but instead patiently observed the other party's actions.

He planned to take a look at the situation, at least to find out how the other party was tracking him.

"Did they use the blood and hair I left at Xuanming Manor to perform the art of exorcism? Or... can their tracking ability use the power of cause and effect to find me out of thin air?"

An Jing guessed it was the latter. He squinted his eyes, and stared through the gaps in the dense needles at the shuttle floating in the distance.

There, the scholar in white was activating the destiny and directing the demon cult warriors to continue their search.

After searching a forest for nearly an hour and finding nothing, generally speaking, no matter how persistent you are, you should search somewhere else.

But this group of demon cult warriors had no intention of leaving. They dug three feet into the ground, vowing to find something.

This action is clearly irrational.

An Jing believed that it was the "fate ability" of the white-robed scholar that made him realize that he was indeed still here, but he was hiding very well and did not leave, so he insisted on searching with such confidence!
"Is the target really still in this place? We have basically searched all the places we should look for."

"There are still trees left to search."

"You must be joking. Humans are not monkeys. And you can't shake every tree, right?"

"According to the adults, even if there are bird eggs on the tree, we have to crack them and see!"

This was the private conversation between the demon cult warriors that An Jing heard while he was lurking.

To be honest, even if this group of people really kicked every tree, shook apart the passing bird eggs and split the earthworms in half, they still wouldn't be able to find him.

Because he would also keep moving, always following behind this group of people, hiding in places that had just been searched.

These demon cult soldiers are indeed elite, but they are not geniuses after all.

They had not yet mastered An Jing's Xuan Bu, so they could not hear any sound at all. It was also impossible for them to imagine that An Jing was so skilled and bold that he was not afraid of being discovered at all.

However, a tactical victory does not mean a strategic victory.

“It’s a bit bad.”

Even though he could fool the other party with his skills, An Jing fell into deep thought: "This kind of hide-and-seek is not a solution."

"Even if I can go to another world now and prevent these people from finding me for a short period of time, when I return to Huaixu in three days, the demon cult with the 'tracking' related magical powers will still be able to find me in the first place."

"Not only that, they might be able to judge from the fact that the place where I reappeared is still the place where I disappeared, that I might have some special magical power to hide in the original place - in this way, they will be willing to wait for me next time."

"Not to mention, the next time we hunt them down, the other party will most likely send out more warriors, even stronger inner-strength warriors... or even martial vein masters!"

An Jing knew very well that the Demon Cult was only mobilizing warriors at the Inner Breath and Inner Strength realm to capture him, not because he was not valuable enough, but because the official forces of Dachen were also nearby recently.

The Immortal Shenzang, whose title is [Six Yang Mysterious Mirror], is also nearby. The Demon Cult is definitely unable to mobilize a luxurious configuration that can suppress the other side while searching for him.

And it is not so easy to transfer a master of the Wumai realm. He still has at least five or six days, and one or two chances to go to another world to avoid it.

Neng Zhuang, An Jing is confident that he can solve the problem with the guns from another world.

However, judging from the fact that the owner of the medicine shop, despite his old and weak body, was still able to block more than 80% of the bullets when attacked by surprise, ordinary people cannot use guns to defeat a normally strong person.

Only he can do this, with his internal energy, fate and supernatural powers, plus firearms, to challenge higher-level challenges.

But if it is a martial vein master...

An Jing carefully estimated that in order to hurt the opponent, the power would have to be heavy artillery-level. And if he wanted to hit the opponent, the speed of ordinary bullets and artillery shells might not be enough.

Before the martial arts master really shows up to arrest him, An Jing must find an opportunity and a way to block the "tracking magic power".

Or to be more direct... kill the person who possesses the 'tracking power'!
"but not now."

Watching another demon cult warrior passing by him, An Jing suppressed the urge in his heart to catch a living person and travel to another world together to force the other party to extract detailed information about this demon cult team.

Acting rashly would only lead to getting stuck in a quagmire. The risk was too great, the gains were uncertain, and there were more surprises. An Jing couldn't afford to lose.

The Demon Cult can fail many times, and it can even be said that it doesn't matter if all the enemy's investigators die here. They can afford the loss, but An Jing cannot lose even once.

This is the disadvantage of an individual against a large organization.

An Jing even suspected that these demon cult warriors acting alone were simply baits to lure him into taking action. As long as he dared to take action, seven or eight internal strong men or even a martial arts master would jump down from the shuttle and beat him up at any time!

"I can't take action. If I run, they will continue to track me... The original plan to sneak into a big city will probably not work."

After finishing the analysis, An Jing sighed and took out the broken sword from the Divine Sea: "It seems that I really can only go to another world to look for opportunities first."

With a swing of the broken sword, a dark passage opened up, with silver rays of light flowing inside, seemingly leading to infinity.

However, before going to the other world, An Jing did not go directly to the other side of time and space.

Knowing that the other party had already determined that he was here, he took a deep breath and shouted, "Instructor Li! And the gentleman in white! I know you are on the shuttle!"

If a warrior with a breath as deep as a river spoke, it would be like thunder. Before leaving, An Jing said loudly: "Let me say this in advance. I have been stubborn since I was young and I can't stand others. I am really not the same as you."

"If you leave today, I will remember the kindness you two gave me in giving me food and medicine and saving my mother's life. I will spare your life if we meet again in the future!"

"But if you continue to chase me, don't blame me for being ruthless with my sword!"

"Don't say you didn't predict what you said!"

After saying this, An Jing took a step forward without hesitation, and his figure disappeared into the other side of time and space.

"Ok?"

At this moment, the white-robed scholar who was using his magical powers on the shuttle was stunned for a moment when he heard An Jing's words: "Is this... a threat?"

He couldn't help but laugh: "Remember your kindness, don't say I didn't warn you! This boy is so flowery, he must have read too many books... When did our Divine Religion pay attention to this?"

"Haha, indeed." Instructor Li at the side also laughed: "If he has the ability to kill us, I will praise him for his extraordinary talent. We were right about him!"

"But Lao Li, he does have some skills."

Raising his eyebrows, the white-robed scribe stared at the 'map' in his hand: "Our God General suddenly disappeared after speaking, just like four days ago."

The one-eyed warrior touched his chin, leaned over, and looked curiously at the map in the other's hand: "So, Old Xu, your life instrument doesn't show it either?"

"No."

The scholar surnamed Xu and Instructor Li obviously had a good relationship. He even handed the map and life tool in his hand to the other party: "Look, our Great General An's name was originally nearby, overlapping with ours."

"But now, his name has suddenly disappeared, just like he suddenly disappeared in Hanging Valley four days ago."

Instructor Li stared at the life-saving instrument in his hand. There were simple pen marks on the white map, outlining the terrain of the mountains and rivers.

Tiny red names and dots are floating on the map. They are the names of the various demon cults who participated in tracking down An Jing.

An Jing's name was originally among them, but now it has disappeared. Instructor Li's eyes moved around, and he took note of all of this.

"Sure enough, it's gone."

Then, he nodded slightly and returned the atlas to show his understanding: "After this happened last time, he appeared again hundreds of miles away."

"If it weren't for your destiny 'Knowing People' and your destiny instrument 'The Book of Mountains and Rivers' that could pinpoint his location, I'm afraid he would have really escaped."

Xu Wenshi sighed: "After all, we were the ones who discovered him, so we are half his 'mentor'. If not, my magical power would not be effective."

"This An Jing is truly an extraordinary genius. At first sight, I knew he was extraordinary, so I registered him in the register."

"Now it seems that we have greatly underestimated him."
