Fairyland Sunshine

Chapter 71 Walking on Fire
Xu Heng's plan was simple and extremely effective.

What he had to do was to use himself as bait to lure the person in the dark to show up, and then Han Chi would take action.

Now that he has entered Bailongtan, there is no way those people who are secretly plotting evil will let him go. Even if the other party lets Xu Heng leave, he can simply take the opportunity to escape and return to Tianchi Mountain to ask for help. This is the best solution.

So after Xu Heng left Bailongtan, he immediately flew away on a flaming horse, and he never let his guard down. Sure enough, after just a moment, he suddenly felt someone rushing towards him from the front.

That person’s speed… wasn’t fast. Either his magic power wasn’t strong, or he may not have learned proper escape techniques. Or maybe it was both.

If Xu Heng wanted to, it would not be difficult for him to turn around and leave the opponent far behind, but he changed his mind and did not choose to avoid it.

Xu Heng was afraid that not only was there someone blocking him in front, but there were also people surrounding him from other directions. Rather than wasting a moment and possibly falling into danger, it would be better to face them head-on and see what methods these people in the dark had.
In Xu Heng's mind, he felt the distance between them shortening rapidly. He narrowed his eyes slightly and suddenly saw a figure through the wind and snow.

As expected, the person who came had bad intentions! The moment their eyes met, the man had already raised his sleeves, and a dense cluster of flying needles began to rain down on him.

But the corners of Xu Heng's mouth curled up slightly.

Is this man strong? Compared with the two Xuan Guang monks who fought with Xu Heng and even killed him, he is much stronger. When he mobilized his magic power and operated the flying needles, the Xuan Guang had already penetrated the top of his head and illuminated the wind and snow for seven or eight feet.

Is this person weak? Compared with the disciples of the Xuanmen sect, compared with Xu Heng who has built a superior foundation... Too weak!

"Hah!" Xu Heng opened his mouth and shouted. A gust of scorching wind suddenly arose, turning the wind and snow into steaming hot air. With just one rush, the flying needle was blown back.

The man's face changed and he dodged quickly. As Xu Heng expected, this man's method of flying was not necessarily much better than simply using his magic power to fly, let alone a profound escape technique.

He hurriedly dodged the flying needles, trying his best, but unfortunately Xu Heng did not pause for a moment and had already formed a spell with his fingertips.

As the pure Yang magic power circulated, a flash of fire appeared and turned into an arc blade condensed from flames, which instantly flew through the air and struck him.

Once upon a time, Ji Tingsheng had such a magical weapon in his hand that could condense flames into a blade.

Now, Xu Heng also learned this magic from Qiao Cheng. Although its essence is not a weapon but is ever-changing, when Xu Heng performed it, he subconsciously condensed it into a flame soldier.

The man didn't even howl in pain, because half of his body was burnt red. He was chopped and flew more than ten feet away, then fell straight into the mountain.

"..."

Some sounds were covered up by the wind and snow, but Xu Heng heard clearly that someone was behind him, calling out a name and chasing after him.

His guess was correct. Even though it didn't take him a moment to kill this man, someone else had already taken the opportunity to catch up with him.

However, if these two people attack from the front and back, it might cause some trouble, but now... they are no threat at all.

"Here." Xu Heng took a deep breath, then suddenly turned around and exhaled.

The fierce wind swept out again, but this time the magic power he mobilized increased several times. Not only did it melt the snow and wind that were dozens of feet thick, but it also caused waves of fire to surge up faintly.

This was not over yet, Xu Heng slapped his waist again, and golden wind rolled out violently. The golden wind and the raging fire combined together, suddenly showing twice the sharpness, and pushed towards the back together, raging, and in a moment, the man was sucked into it.

Xu Heng raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect that the combination of golden wind and raging fire would have such unexpected power.

But now is not the time to be complacent, it would be best if we don't waste any more effort. Xu Heng didn't even check whether the other party was caught in the golden wind and fire and was struggling to resist, or was simply blown to ashes. He just bent his body and rode the flames again to escape from the mountain.

He didn't know how many people were chasing him, but he remained alert the whole time. Soon, when he was about to get out of the mountain, his heart sank.

Xu Heng saw on the top of the mountain, there were black-robed monks sitting leaning against the formation flag. There was some kind of energy connecting them in the dark, which together formed an invisible barrier.

Xu Heng didn't expect that a casual cultivator would know how to set up formations, but after thinking about it again, he felt that it made sense.

Don't look at the poor magic of these people, but they dare to come and plot against Han Chi, there must be a powerful person behind them, it is normal that they can set up an array to seal the mountain.

Xu Heng suddenly felt the situation was getting difficult. Whether he attacked the formation, destroyed the formation flags, or directly tried to break out of the mountain, it seemed unrealistic.

His mind raced, and before he could make up his mind, his eyebrows suddenly jumped, and something broke into his spiritual perception.

It is fire.

The thought flashed through his mind, and Xu Heng suddenly raised his eyes, only to see a raging flame falling from the sky, instantly engulfing him.

“Hahahahaha!” A wild laugh was heard in the wind and snow. The scarred man appeared with his feet on the red flames, a ferocious look on his face, “Damn bastard, sooner or later I will burn you to ashes!”

His words did not seem to be directed at Xu Heng, but the malice was overwhelming.

Scarface stretched out his hand and clenched it. The flame trembled slightly, as if it was about to condense, but suddenly!

The air trembled, a clanging sound was heard, and a ray of sword light with restrained divine power broke through the flames, pierced through the wind and snow, and instantly appeared in front of him.

The scarred face suddenly changed color, but fortunately, in the danger, a faint light suddenly appeared on his body. Although it was shattered in an instant, it also bought him a precious glimmer of hope for survival.

He jerked his head aside, and at the same time, visible magic power surged out, transforming into a mysterious light of red and black, blocking his body and the sword light.

hiss-

As the sword flashed past, there seemed to be a non-existent tearing sound, and the red-black mysterious light also separated.

An inch-deep sword scar was left on Scarface's neck, but unfortunately it ended there.

For a mortal, this sword is certainly enough to be fatal, but for a cultivator with great magical powers, it is just a scar.

Scarface dodged the sword light and protected himself again. He looked with a sinister gaze and saw a figure appear in the raging flames. Sure enough, a figure slowly appeared.

Wherever this person passed, the flames seemed to be afraid of him and naturally separated. Although his body was also surrounded by flames, a closer look showed that there was no flame burning on his body at all.

Even his hair, beard, and clothes were intact! He escaped from the fire as if he was strolling in a garden.

“How is this possible?” Scarface was slightly shocked. When he used his fire magic, even the essence of gold and the mother of iron would have melted into water. A mere Xuanguan cultivator should have been burned into a wisp of green smoke. This person…

Is this person a ghost?
