God of Pets

Chapter 343 Rescue
Seeing Zhang Chunxiang trapped by the Soul-Summoning Banner, Chen Guan's body was involuntarily pulled back. He reached out and summoned the Mysterious Boundless Battle Spear in his hand.

He aimed at the jade lynx, preparing to throw his spear, when he heard a series of crackling sounds, like electric shocks.

Zhang Chunxiang waved out paper talismans in her hand. When the black energy of the soul-summoning banner touched the paper talismans, it immediately generated arcs of electricity, shattering the black energy.

The black energy couldn't get close to Zhang Chunxiang for a while, but those paper talismans were consumables, and it was unknown how many Zhang Chunxiang had on her.

Fu Tianji remained unmoved, but the black energy within the soul-summoning banner grew increasingly fierce, resembling countless vengeful spirits and ghosts that relentlessly attacked Zhang Chunxiang.

In an instant, the entire mountain was shrouded in black mist, like dark clouds pressing down overhead.

Zhang Chunxiang had fewer and fewer paper talismans on her body, but she still couldn't break free, and she was getting a little anxious.

Suddenly, Zhang Chunxiang raised her hand and took out a small jade bottle, less than the size of her palm. Holding it in her hand, she said loudly, "Fu Tianji, what I have in my hand is my Zhang family's Dragon-Tiger Golden Pill. Its function is to prolong life, revitalize blood and flesh, and regenerate bones. If Yang Hu can take this pill, he can replenish his lost lifespan, and his physical recovery will be better than simply replenishing lifespan. If you let me go, I will give you this pill; otherwise, I will destroy it now."

Fu Tianji paused the soul-summoning banner in his hand, and the black aura that resembled many vengeful spirits and ghosts stopped, condensing in the air for a while without dissipating, still trapping Zhang Chunxiang inside.

"Give it to me," Fu Tianji said, reaching out his hand.

"Now that I've given it to you, what am I going to do if you don't let me go?" Zhang Chunxiang was very frustrated as she saw the black mist around her condensing and not dissipating.

She originally wanted to take the opportunity to escape, but the dark aura wouldn't dissipate, so she had no chance at all.

Fu Tianji was no ordinary person. He immediately noticed the slight change in Zhang Chunxiang's expression and waved the Soul-Summoning Banner, causing the black energy to entwine around Zhang Chunxiang even more fiercely.

Seeing that she could no longer deceive Fu Tianji, Zhang Chunxiang no longer hesitated, directly uncorked the bottle and threw out the contents.

Small red pills were scattered out, and upon encountering the black mist, they immediately exploded, forming large patches of red fog.

When the black mist met the red fog, it was like snow meeting the sun; a portion of it was immediately melted away.

Zhang Chunxiang tried to rush down into the clouds below the mountaintop, but she was restricted and could not run fast, nor could she summon her pet.

To allow her to focus on finding the place where the dragon and tiger meet, Fu Tianji did not take away anything from her, but only sealed her vital energy and pet summoning ability.

They did initially intend to let her leave, but now they have no other choice but to take Zhang Chunxiang's lifespan.

There was just too much black energy, and the red mist was getting thinner and thinner, threatening to trap Zhang Chunxiang to death again.

Chen Guan watched with a pounding heart. He had also heard of the infamous Soul-Summoning Banner, and that it was similar to, or even more insidious than, the Ten Thousand Ghosts Refining King Cauldron.

The Myriad Ghosts Refining Soul Cauldron requires ghost-type spirits to upgrade, while the Soul Summoning Banner can directly devour the souls of all living beings, including human souls.

The more souls collected, the stronger the Soul-Summoning Banner becomes.

The black aura surrounding the Soul-Summoning Banner in Fu Tianji's hand was so vast that it was impossible to know how many souls it had collected to achieve such an effect.

Fortunately, Fu Tianji's level was too low, so the level of the Soul-Summoning Banner he could use was also limited. Although the Yin energy was very strong, the level was not high.

Chen Guan had been looking for an opportunity to launch a sneak attack, but even when he was capturing Zhang Chunxiang, he couldn't find any opening in Fu Tianji's defenses. He was standing next to the jade lynx and had no chance to launch a sneak attack.

Zhang Chunxiang's side, however, seemed to be on the verge of collapse, as the red mist was about to be completely dispersed.

"Since we're going to mess with Fu Tianji anyway, it might be good to forge a good relationship with the Zhang family." Chen Guan gripped his spear and suddenly hurled it at the jade lynx. At the same time, Chen Guan himself rushed towards Zhang Chunxiang, who was surrounded by black energy. He wanted to rescue Zhang Chunxiang first, then take her away, to see if Fu Tianji would be lured away.

He wasn't as fast as Fu Tianji's knife, but if he ran, Fu Tianji definitely couldn't catch him.

As long as we can lure Fu Tianji away or exhaust his energy, we won't be afraid of his Heavenly Gate Left Hand Blade when we fight him again.

The Heavenly Gate Left Hand Knife is a complex secret technique, and its energy consumption is definitely not low. Without energy, it is useless.

Seeing that the red mist was about to dissipate, Zhang Chunxiang gritted her teeth, took out her life-saving talisman, and lit it directly in her hand.

As she burned the life-saving talisman, she saw Chen Guan's palms burning with green flames, and wherever they passed, the black mist immediately ignited and turned into raging flames.

Amidst the flames that seemed to rage across the sky, Chen Guan charged forward as if he were reckless, causing Zhang Chunxiang's eyes to widen in astonishment.

She never expected Chen Guan to appear here, let alone that he would come out to save her.

But now that she has used the life-saving charm, it's too late to undo it.

The spear transformed into black lightning, striking the jade lynx behind Fu Tianji. Fu Tianji immediately sensed it, slightly turned his body, and with a backhand slash, sent the spear flying.

Chen Guan didn't expect the spear to actually hurt the jade lynx; he just wanted to take this opportunity to rescue Zhang Chunxiang.

However, when Chen Guan used the Xuanming Yin Fire Palm to suppress the Yin energy of the Soul-Summoning Banner and rushed to Zhang Chunxiang, he saw a golden paper talisman burning in Zhang Chunxiang's hand, as well as Zhang Chunxiang's strange expression.

"I..." Zhang Chunxiang only managed to utter one word before her body was enveloped in a golden light, instantly transforming into a stream of light and flying away into the distance. In the blink of an eye, she had already disappeared into the sea of ​​clouds.

Chen Guan was dumbfounded; he never expected that he would save someone who was invisible.

"You actually managed to find this place. Well, she escaped. Then use your lifespan to pay for it." Seeing that Chen Guan's palm force could actually restrain the Soul-Summoning Banner, Fu Tianji immediately put away the Soul-Summoning Banner, summoned the Secret God Zi Xuan, and attacked Chen Guan.

He charged toward Chen Guan, gripping the Secret God's Fang tightly in his hand.

Without the slightest hesitation, Chen Guan activated his One-Step Technique and turned to run.

Step by step, in just a few steps, they left Zi Xuan and Fu Tianji far behind, and were about to rush into the clouds.

When Fu Tianji realized that he could not catch up with Chen Guan, a strange light flashed in his eyes, and his face immediately turned an unusual red.

Spitting out a mouthful of blood, Fu Tianji's body rushed towards the blood. The moment he collided with the blood, his speed suddenly increased, turning into a streak of blood light, and he approached Chen Guan at an incredible speed.

"Blood Escape Technique..." Chen Guan was taken aback.

The Five Elements Escape Technique does not fall under the category of lightness skills, nor is it a secret technique found in blessed lands. Generally, one needs to reach the level of a grotto-heaven to cultivate it.

Similar escape techniques, under certain conditions, are indeed faster than light-body techniques.

There are some exceptions, such as the Blood Escape Technique. It doesn't have high level requirements, but the price of using it is one's own blood essence and lifespan, causing great damage to oneself.

In order to keep him, Fu Tianji actually used this secret technique that would kill a thousand enemies but also lose two thousand of his own.
