Rebirth in Another World: The Ultimate Legend

Upon seeing this, Ouyang Kuishan's face instantly filled with terror, and his body trembled uncontrollably. He opened his mouth and cried out in an almost pleading voice, "Senior, spare our lives! I was blind and didn't recognize your greatness. I offended you. Please forgive my rudeness and let us go!"

Just then, Li Xuan, who had been standing silently beside Ouyang Kuishan, suddenly spoke up: "Chief, this place is not safe to stay any longer. We should escape quickly! In my opinion, the way this person appeared was so strange that he is very likely a legendary cultivator of the Secret Spirit!"

Upon hearing Li Xuan's words, Ouyang Kuishan's eyes widened, and he asked with a face full of doubt, "Huh? What is a Secret Spirit Cultivator? How come I've never heard of this title before?"

Li Xuan urged anxiously, "Chief, now is not the time to explain, let's run! I'll tell you about the Secret Spirit cultivators slowly after we're out of danger. Right now, saving our lives is the most important thing!"

Before they finished speaking, the two men quickly waved to their subordinates, ordering them to hold off the mysterious man and buy themselves time to escape. Then, without hesitation, they turned and ran as fast as they could.

Seeing Ouyang Kuishan and Li Xuan trying to escape, the mysterious man's lips curled into a contemptuous smile, and he let out a disdainful snort: "Hmph, you ignorant fools! Trying to escape from me? You're dreaming!"

Immediately afterward, he flicked his wrist, the silver cane in his hand swaying in the air for a moment before striking Ouyang Kuishan's men with lightning speed. In an instant, a barely perceptible afterimage shot out from the cane like a ghost, as fast as a bolt of lightning. This afterimage circled the group of men once before vanishing abruptly.

Before his men could even react, they felt a chilling force instantly sweep across their bodies. Then, several shrill screams rang out, blood splattered everywhere, and their bodies collapsed, instantly dying.

By this time, Ouyang Kuishan and Li Xuan had already escaped a considerable distance. Hearing the screams of their subordinates behind them, both were startled. Li Xuan was even more certain that the mysterious man was the legendary cultivator of the Secret Spirit, and his fear intensified.

The mysterious man stared coldly in the direction they fled, then flashed away like a ghost and gave chase.

As Ouyang Kuishan ran, panting heavily, he shouted to Li Xuan, "Just who is this mysterious person? Is he really that scary?"

Li Xuan replied nervously, "Chief, cultivators of the Secret Spirit are extremely rare and powerful beings. It is said that their cultivation methods are mysterious and unpredictable, possessing power and supernatural abilities beyond the imagination of ordinary people. We've really kicked a hornet's nest this time!"

Ouyang Kuishan gritted his teeth, his cheeks bulging slightly from the effort, his heart filled with endless regret and self-reproach. He never imagined he would be so foolish as to provoke such a terrifying being.

The mysterious figure moved like a ghost, incredibly fast, his clothes fluttering in the wind, like a black whirlwind hurtling towards them. Each step seemed to be treading on thin air, and in the blink of an eye, he closed the distance between them.

"Boss, if this keeps up, we'll all be caught by this guy sooner or later!" Li Xuan shouted breathlessly as he ran, his voice clearly revealing a hint of despair.

Ouyang Kuishan's face was ashen, large beads of sweat rolling down his forehead. Suddenly, he stopped abruptly, as if making a firm decision, and said resolutely, "No, we absolutely cannot just sit here and wait to die. Listen to me, we split up and run!"

Li Xuan was taken aback upon hearing this, clearly not expecting Ouyang Kuishan to make such a decision. However, the situation was critical, leaving him no time for further thought. Without hesitation, he nodded and turned to run off in another direction.

When the mysterious man arrived here, he paused briefly, frowning slightly, seemingly surprised that the two had split up and fled. After a brief hesitation, he ultimately decided to continue the pursuit of Ouyang Kuishan.

Ouyang Kuishan glanced back and saw that the mysterious man was still closely following behind, showing no sign of giving up. His heart suddenly raced, and an unprecedented fear surged into his heart, making it almost impossible for him to breathe.

"Am I, Ouyang Kuishan, truly going to die here today?" He inwardly groaned, countless thoughts racing through his mind as he tried to find a way to escape. However, facing such a powerful and mysterious figure, he couldn't think of any other way to shake off the pursuer...

At this critical moment, a lush and exceptionally dense forest suddenly appeared not far ahead. This forest was like a natural barrier, with tall trees arranged closely together, their branches and leaves intertwined, as if hiding countless unknown secrets.

Upon seeing this, Ouyang Kuishan felt a surge of joy. Without hesitation, he charged straight into the dense forest like a nimble cheetah. He knew that the intricate terrain of this forest might provide him with excellent cover to evade the mysterious man's pursuit.

Once inside the forest, Ouyang Kuishan ran wildly. The sprawling branches and sharp thorns lashed at his face and body like the tentacles of a demon. But he had long forgotten the pain, his mind solely focused on escaping the mysterious man's pursuit as quickly as possible.

At the edge of the woods, the mysterious figure caught up. He slowly stopped, closed his eyes, and an incredibly powerful spiritual force erupted from his body, rapidly spreading outwards. This spiritual force was like an invisible net, seemingly sensing Ouyang Kuishan's exact location with meticulous precision.

A brief moment later, the mysterious man suddenly opened his eyes, a faint smile playing on his lips. Then, he strode leisurely into the seemingly perilous forest.

At this very moment, Ouyang Kuishan was still running frantically through the woods. Rough branches mercilessly tore at his once-neat clothes, and sharp thorns left horrifying gashes on his delicate skin. However, Ouyang Kuishan completely ignored these injuries, gritting his teeth and pushing forward with all his might.

However, no matter how hard Ouyang Kuishan tried to escape, the mysterious man's presence seemed to follow him ever closer.

"Come out, you have nowhere to run!" The mysterious voice suddenly rang out in the silent forest, deep and resonant, seemingly containing an irresistible power of authority, echoing in the air for a long time. Hearing this voice, Ouyang Kuishan's heart pounded wildly, as if it would burst out of his chest. At the same time, a fine layer of sweat quickly soaked his back, sending chills down his spine.
