Chapter 250 Northwest Corner of the Great Wilderness

In the northwest corner of the Great Wilderness.

Wei Yuan and Bai Ze were running for their lives.

The aura behind them was becoming increasingly turbulent, moving at an extremely fast speed—no, it could even be said to be absurdly fast. Anyone with eyes could tell which was faster: the speed of the sun and moon in their courses, or the speed of riding the wind and clouds.

Wei Yuan glanced at Bai Ze beside him.

Silently slowing down.

Bai Ze, with his extensive knowledge and experience in treating patients with stubbornness, grabbed the guy's hand and twitched his mouth, saying, "What do you want to do?!"

Wei Yuan replied, "If we can't escape, instead of wasting energy..."

"We might as well turn around and give Him a shot."

Excellent, textbook answer!

Full marks...

Not a chance!

Bai Ze's forehead twitched. He held onto the civil official beside him tightly and said, "No, calm down. That's Shi Yi, the one guarding the northwest corner of the Great Wilderness. To put it bluntly, he's almost on par with the Four Symbols (Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird, Black Tortoise) of the Kunlun God System. Are you sure you can beat him?!"

"Four Symbols?"

"Yes, he's even at the level of the Four Fiends (Hundun, Qiongqi, Taowu, Taotie)!"

Bai Ze deliberately made his tone heavy.

Wei Yuan murmured, "The Four Fiends..."

Bai Ze breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Scared now? If you're scared, then follow me..."

Wei Yuan glanced at him and said:

"I just killed one."

"Just killed..."

Bai Ze's face froze. "Uh..."

"Uh??!"

Are you serious?

Seeing that Wei Yuan seemed even more confident and was about to walk back, Bai Ze's scalp tingled, and he quickly grabbed him, saying, "Wait, wait... didn't you say you wanted to avoid alerting the snake?"

"We first broke through the barrier, and then fought with Shi Yi. Unless the Mao Min country's Yi Ri Yue is an idiot, he would have hidden during this time. Maybe you haven't found him yet, and he's already gone in joyful anticipation of his death. Taoist, you didn't come here so he could have a joyous funeral, did you?"

Bai Ze directly stated Wei Yuan's thoughts.

Wei Yuan paused and said slowly, "How do I know I can't beat him if I don't fight?"

"If we keep retreating, there's nowhere left to retreat."

Bai Ze said helplessly, "Let's think of another way."

"Think again."

"I know the sword energy on your body is strong, and I can see that your swordsmanship is at a very high level. You've killed righteous gods, and even somehow killed one of the Four Fiends."

"However, Shi Yi is different from those gods. You can tell from his name that his personality is like a stone. Besides, he controls time. The Twelve Yuan Chen formation can reduce people's lifespans. Although I don't know how you killed them, it's likely related to them underestimating you."

"But Shi Yi is like a rock. No matter how strong your sword energy is, you absolutely can't kill him with swordsmanship at this time."

Bai Ze's tone was firm.

Wei Yuan frowned.

Bai Ze said, "Don't look at me like that."

"I still know their details relatively well. Shi Yi's offensive power may not be too strong, to put it bluntly, it's not strong at all, not as good as the Four Fiends. But, you can't kill him."

Bai Ze said helplessly:

"With Shi Yi's divine body, any injury can be healed with time."

"And one of his authorities is to accelerate the flow of his own time."

"He controls the length of days and months."

"Not to mention using this authority in battle, whether it's attacking or defending, it's almost superior to most gods. The combination of this authority and physique alone is enough to make Shi Yi, who is not good at destructive divine powers, surpass many heavenly gods and be listed as one of the guardians of the Great Wilderness."

"He's one of the indestructible bodies among the heavenly gods."

"Any injury will be instantly restored under the accelerated flow of time."

"Even those divine powers that gradually corrode the victim over time are no exception."

"Because Shi Yi can completely accelerate his own time and suspend the enemy's magic power. In the end, all external forces that enter his body will be annihilated by the impact of the time turbulence itself, and his body will also recover its injuries as time passes."

"This move is an absolute taboo for creatures with limited lifespans."

"But Shi Yi is a heavenly god, living as long as heaven and earth. This move of his is directly in a permanent state. Unless you annihilate his body and soul in an instant, so that even the flow of time cannot restore him, otherwise, no one can defeat him. Instead, he will become stronger and stronger in battle, learning the opponent's moves through his body's memory, and then defeating the enemy."

Bai Ze habitually explained, saying:

"So..."

"Unless your swordsmanship is already strong enough to kill gods at the level of the Four Symbols and Four Fiends in an instant."

"Otherwise, we can only run."

Bai Ze sighed to the sky, "This guy is the stickiest of the sticky in the entire Great Wilderness, with vigorous blood and almost instantaneous recovery. If you slash him with a sword, the sword might even get stuck in his restored divine body and you won't be able to pull it out, and then Shi Yi will punch you."

"Northwest corner, northwest corner, are the ones guarding the northern entrance all like this?"

"Shi Yi is like this, Xuan Wu is also like this..."

"What exactly is in the north?!"

High health, high defense, and also has a blood lock.

And it's not locking the blood at a trickle, it's directly a constant full health state.

Wei Yuan was thoughtful and glanced at Bai Ze.

Bai Ze's body stiffened, and he instantly understood what he meant, shaking his head in refusal:

"Don't think about using Xing Tian's axe."

"Caught off guard, this axe can indeed severely injure Shi Yi, and it's possible that it will prevent him from chasing for a short time, but then you'll be completely exposed. At that time, all the gods in the Great Wilderness will come after you, and even you will be finished."

"Exposed?!"

Bai Ze's mouth twitched, and he said faintly:

"You don't think there's a second axe in the world that can chop people into that shape, do you?!"

"Run quickly, there should be a way ahead..."

Wei Yuan sighed, "It's too late."

"What?"

Bai Ze was slightly stunned.

Wei Yuan waved his sleeve, and a gust of wind directly sent Bai Ze away. He turned back and pointed with his fingers, sword energy burst out, and then heavily slashed down. Cloud energy overflowed, sword intent soared into the sky, and finally slashed at a certain existence, instantly shattering and scattering. The cloud energy was shattered, and the coldness in the air was so intense that it was bone-piercing.

Bai Ze stabilized his body and saw who it was.

A tall and silent figure, with hair cut short like a crew cut in this era.

Arms crossed, directly blocking Wei Yuan's charged sword intent.

Bai Ze's pupils contracted.

Seeing the bloody and terrifying wounds on Shi Yi's arms, which were famous for defense in the Great Wilderness, almost revealing the bones, and even the blood on the bones was cut off, Bai Ze's scalp went numb, and he looked at the white-haired swordsman beside him.

He actually broke through the defense?!

Wait a minute...

With such a level of swordsmanship, can he pull out that sword?

Bai Ze's expression froze.

Wei Yuan exhaled and gathered his Qi, somewhat regretting not bringing his sword.

The previous sword strike was after he had charged up.

He had already started charging up while talking to Bai Ze.

Although he was unlikely to be a match for a Four Fiends-level opponent, opportunities weren't going to appear by running away.

Running away was not his style.

But just like Bai Ze said.

Shi Yi's expression was indifferent, and the wounds on his arms healed at a speed visible to the naked eye. Even the biting sword energy would dissipate in the long run. Shi Yi seemed completely unable to feel pain and stared at Wei Yuan: "Are you the criminal?"

"I need to take you back to be judged by the gods of the Great Wilderness."

Wei Yuan said, "It wasn't me."

It was Chen Yuan who did it!

Shi Yi frowned and said, "If you say it wasn't you, do you have any evidence?"

Wei Yuan charged up and replied, "If you say I did it, do you have any evidence?"

Shi Yi said slowly, "The formation has already revealed everything."

Wei Yuan pondered and said seriously:

"What if the formation is old and broken?"

He was just stalling for time, but Wei Yuan didn't expect that this heavenly god who controlled the flow of time would nod after thinking and say, "Indeed, what you said makes sense. The formation has not been used or repaired for more than a thousand years, and there is a possibility that the structure of the formation is damaged."

Wei Yuan was stunned, thoughtful. Could there be a turning point?

He said, "So, can you let me go?"

Shi Yi shook his head: "No."

Wei Yuan said, "What I said just now made sense, right?"

"It made sense!"

"………Then can you let me go?"

"No."

"Why? Didn't you say what I said made sense?"

Shi Yi said seriously:

"It makes sense, so I have to take you back, and let you try again after I repair the formation."

"Don't worry, if you've been wronged, I will definitely protect you. But why did you run just now?"

Wei Yuan said, "Because you were chasing me, of course I had to run."

"So you wouldn't run if I didn't chase you?"

"Probably."

"Then if I don't chase you, can you go back yourself to prove your innocence?"

Wei Yuan: "…………"

Your logic is flawless, I can't refute it.

He said, "No."

Shi Yi nodded and came to a conclusion:

"I understand, you're playing with me."

"Then I have no choice but to take you back, and then repair the formation."

"If you are wronged, I will apologize."

The heavenly god collided his fists, the flow of time distorted around him, and he said slowly.

"But if you are indeed the criminal."

"Then, the crime of playing with a heavenly god, will be punished along with it."

"You have no weapon, so I will fight you with my bare hands."

He threw down the battle knife at his waist, his aura was turbulent and majestic, and an overwhelming oppressive aura crashed down on Wei Yuan. Then, Shi Yi raised his palm and punched out fiercely. Wei Yuan felt his breathing slightly stagnate. The power of the fist was unprecedented, and his expression was awe-inspiring.

This was not the kind of god who relied on divine power to act recklessly.

In the long river of time, he painstakingly studied a skill.

Constantly polishing it to the peak.

This was the kind of skill a god should have.

Wei Yuan exhaled and shouted, pointing his fingers and slashing out a sword, his pupils contained divine light, operating the Xuan Nu's secret art, the cold light solidified, able to cut through all laws, he flicked his sleeve and shook away the lock of the fist, and then took advantage of the situation to slash out a sword, the momentum was turbulent and cold.

Just as the fist and sword were about to clash.

Suddenly, two figures flashed out of the void, one on the left and one on the right, inserting themselves into the battlefield. The one on the left reached out and pressed on the side of Shi Yi's fist, guiding the majestic fist away from the front. The one on the right flicked his sleeve and blocked Wei Yuan's sword.

The extremely condensed fist and Wei Yuan's extremely sharp sword intent instantly disappeared.

Even though the moves just now were not all-out, this scene was enough to shock people.

Wei Yuan took a few steps back and saw the people who came. The one facing him was a woman wearing a white robe, the hood fell down, and he could only see her smooth chin and light-colored lips. The one who stopped Shi Yi was dressed in the same way, looking almost identical.

Astonishment appeared on Shi Yi's face.

Bai Ze was also stunned.

"It's you..."

Shi Yi frowned, glanced at Wei Yuan, and said, "...Are you protecting him?"

"Why?"

The woman's voice was smiling and beautiful, reminding people of blooming flowers, she smiled and said: "Of course, it's because he has ties with an old friend of ours, and we happened to see you fighting, so we came out to help, how about it, Shi Yi, if I let you give us some face."

"Would you give it?"

How could a mere face make one of the strongest gods guarding a region give up?

But Shi Yi was silent for a long time, and finally actually slowly withdrew his fist.

Just because of this face, one of the strongest gods in the Great Wilderness gave up the pursuit and said:

"Since it's you, then I will stop this time."

"But next time we meet, I will definitely capture you."

His second sentence was addressed to Wei Yuan, and he added a sentence.

"I will repair the formation when I get back."

"Check the loopholes and replace them with new spiritual materials."

"And I will find a formation master, don't worry, you won't encounter this kind of thing next time."

Wei Yuan: "…………"

How can you reassure me with that?

Don't worry, I will never go there.

Shi Yi took a deep look at the two identical women and picked up the weapon he had put down beside him.

Turning around and leaving.

He actually left just like that.

The white-clothed woman retracted her gaze, one stretched out her hand and pressed on Wei Yuan's shoulder, and the other stretched out her hand and pressed on Bai Ze's shoulder. In an instant, Wei Yuan seemed to see the space collapsing in front of him, or rather, the earth itself was flowing. In the blink of an eye, they arrived at another place, where the spiritual energy was rich and vast.

This was a majestic mountain.

Wei Yuan slowly exhaled and looked at the two identical women, feeling something in his heart.

"The two of you are..."

The woman on the left smiled silently, dignified and generous.

The woman on the right smiled and said, "As for us."

"Mm."

"You can call me, Nuwa."
