Dragon Hidden in the Sky

Chapter 458 Breakthrough During the Escape

The chances of being caught in these mountains and forests are too high.

He considered going to sea, but the other party could simply wait on the shore. He couldn't possibly swim to the deep sea. Even if he could avoid being caught, his stamina would eventually run out. Moreover, if the other party was surrounded by people along the coastline, it was only a matter of time before he was discovered.

After much deliberation, Ye Qing decided to head to the City of Exile.

The city has buildings, and hidden within these buildings, if one enters a particular building and makes a slight movement, there is a high chance that one can widen the distance between oneself and the other party.

He looked around, but all around was darkness, making it very difficult for him to discern directions!

"Exile City is on the east side of this island!" Ye Qing gritted his teeth. He could only roughly determine the direction before quickly heading east.

However, behind him, Van Guis and Ge Yan were following closely!

The distance is getting closer and closer!

"Fifty meters!"

"Forty meters!"

……

Ye Qing even felt as if the true energy was right behind him.

He gritted his teeth, landed again, rolled on the spot, and then quickly gathered power in his right hand.

A terrifying surge of true energy was compressing in his right hand.

"Not running anymore?" Van Guis roared. "Die!"

At this moment, Van Guis rushed straight towards Ye Qing, and true energy was rapidly gathering on the cross-shaped longsword in his right hand.

He slashed directly at Ye Qing with his sword!

"Starburst"

Ye Qing roared, and his true energy surged forth.

Van Guis's sword hurtled straight at Ye Qing, but the next moment, he discovered that his blade could not advance. It had been abruptly stopped by Ye Qing's immense true energy!

"Hmph!" Van Guis sneered.

His hands surged with true energy, and his powerful true energy erupted completely at this moment.

With a burst of true energy, Ye Qing was launched away.

Even Van Guis couldn't help but take several steps back at this moment.

"Van Guise!" Ge Yan quickly helped him up.

"Thank you for seeing me off!"

At the same time, Ye Qing let out a burst of wild laughter.

Launched into the air, his exoskeleton device activated instantly, transforming him into a beam of light that vanished into the night in a flash.

"How dare you!" Van Guis roared, "Chase them!"

However, after this collision, the distance that was originally only thirty meters was instantly widened to more than a hundred meters, and Ye Qing quickly rushed into the nearby forest.

"You cunning brat, I'll see how long you can keep running!" Van Guis cursed.

Ahead, Ye Qing's exoskeleton device was activated, and he continued to move forward, while clutching his chest.

"Is this... the strength of the world's top super experts? Just by taking one blow head-on, the explosion of true energy actually caused me some internal injuries!" Ye Qing gritted his teeth.

Yes, in the collision just now, in order to use the force to leave, he deliberately let his body bear the aftershocks of the true energy explosion in order to be shaken away. However, he did not expect that the energy under the collision of true energy would be so strong.

Fortunately, the distance between them has indeed been widened.

The distance between the two has now increased to more than 100 meters.

Ye Qing quickly headed east again, disappearing into a forest.

Then he unleashed the full power of the fourth-generation exoskeleton device to its fullest extent.

The air currents circulated continuously around him. Ye Qing used the Divine Shadow Step and the exoskeleton device in constant coordination. As time went by, he discovered that his speed was actually increasing little by little.

"Is the strength of my internal energy... also increasing?" Ye Qing took a deep breath and murmured to himself, "Master is right. Under such pressure, the breakthrough and improvement of one's internal energy is the most direct way. Before, when I fought against the head of the Zong family, my internal energy broke through. And this time, under the pressure of their pursuit, it seems that I have made some breakthroughs again. I just don't know what level the strength of my internal energy will be able to improve after this breakthrough!"

"We'll go see them after Master and the others arrive!" Ye Qing said slowly.

Behind him, Van Guis continued his pursuit. As he chased, his brows furrowed slowly. He noticed that the distance between him and Ye Qing seemed to be closing much more slowly!

He knew that his speed could not be slow, which meant that Ye Qing's speed was gradually increasing.

Later, he found that he was actually unable to shorten the distance. After some time, he realized that Ye Qing was widening the distance between them!

"The direction he's heading..." Van Guis's pupils suddenly contracted. "It seems to be... within the city of exile?"

"He wants to enter the City of Exile to escape my pursuit?" Van Guis's expression darkened.

Time passed second by second, and after about an hour, Ye Qing could see the outline of the city under the night sky. At this time, he was about two hundred meters away from Van Guise behind him.

Without further thought, he quickly rushed into the city.

It was already past midnight, and the city was extremely quiet. After Ye Qing re-entered the city, he made several quick rolls and, using the complex buildings within the city, disappeared in a short time.

……

Once at the city gate, Van Guis stopped the pursuit.

After a while, Ge Yan quickly arrived at the city gate. He gritted his teeth and said, "Where are they?"

“He disappeared into the city!” Van Guis said. “With these houses in the city, it would be very easy for him to hide!”

"Damn it!" Ge Yan cursed, "He got away, and I feel like his speed is getting faster. Most likely, he's made a breakthrough in his true qi. This kid! We can't let him live any longer. If this continues, he'll be a disaster sooner or later!"

"Don't worry!" Van Guis said, "In the past month or so, this city has been under my control. He has no chance of escaping here, not even if he had wings!"

“What if… he leaves?” Ge Yan asked.

“He exchanged a blow with me and was injured. Moreover, such a high-intensity escape has greatly depleted his inner energy, and his injuries may have worsened. He will definitely choose to find a place to recuperate,” Van Guis said.
