As he was worried that something would happen if he was late, Chen An searched the corpse very quickly.
As soon as he touched the storage bag, he put it away without even looking at it. He was not in the mood to check what was inside.
As for whether there was anything else valuable on the corpse, he did not dare to waste time touching it.
At most, he would take the weapon and put it in his storage bag.
In just a few breaths, Chen An touched the storage bags on the five Bamboo Leaf Gang eiders.
After that, he did not stay any longer and quickly left, rushing straight in the direction of his wife and daughter.
As for Shen Qingyi, it wasn’t like they were very close.
There was no need to take the risk to save her.
Buzz!
Before Chen An could walk ten meters, he suddenly heard a booming sound behind him.
His divine consciousness spread out and he sensed a ball of high energy in the sky approaching at high speed.
It was Sect Master Zhu!
When Chen An realized this, his spiritual power immediately erupted. His legs turned into afterimages as he ran all the way.
He was very self-aware. He knew that a mighty person at the third level of Foundation Establishment was far from being defeated by someone like him, who was only at the first level of Foundation Establishment.
“Do you think you can escape?”
Sect Master Zhu’s angry voice suddenly came from behind.
In the next second!
Chen An was extremely shocked to discover that the surrounding vegetation was actually moving!
It was as if they had become spirits. They rose from the ground and gathered together to form a thick wooden wall, blocking his path.
Chen An wanted to turn around and run.
However, when he focused his gaze, he saw that the other three directions had already formed a thick wooden wall.
He was surrounded by walls! There was no way out!
“He can control plants and trees. He’s a Wood-type Spiritual Root Cultivator!”
Chen An thought to himself.
At this moment, Sect Master Zhu flew over on his sword and landed on the wooden wall.
He stood with his hands behind his back and looked down at Chen An. His eyes were bloodshot as he said,
“Who the hell are you? Why did you hide your strength and hide in the Bamboo Leaf Forest? Are you from the Black Iron Manor?”
Sect Master Zhu’s voice was filled with anger and fear.
This was because he had seen the five decapitated elders along the way.
He was angry that more than half of the Bamboo Leaf Gang that he had spent decades building had been destroyed by Chen An in the blink of an eye.
He was afraid that Chen An could kill five mighty figures with cultivation as high as Foundation Establishment Level 1 alone. For a moment, he could not figure out Chen An’s strength.
He suspected that Chen An’s strength was enough to threaten his life.
Therefore, he only chose to block him and did not rashly approach.
Swoosh!
Chen An did not say anything. He condensed a light sword on his fingertip and slashed at the wooden wall in front of him.
In an instant, the wooden wall collapsed and a gap appeared.
Without any hesitation!
Chen An quickly left with his sword.
“You can’t leave!”
As Sect Master Zhu’s voice sounded, in the next moment…
The vegetation around Chen An’s body swayed as if it had a mind of their own. Thick vines shot out from the dense leaves and branches, wanting to tie him up.
Swoosh!
There was the sound of flames burning.
Chen An couldn’t care less. He ignited a wisp of alchemic fire on his fingertip and set the surrounding plants on fire.
This move was very effective. The plants were instantly burned and retreated, not daring to approach Chen An at all.
Unfortunately, this scene only lasted for a short moment.
In just a moment, these plants pounced on him like moths to a flame.
“I’m going all out!”
Chen An knew that he could not escape, so he immediately turned around and rushed out. His feet turned into afterimages as he stepped on the wooden wall and attacked Sect Master Zhu.
It was so fast! It was so fast that Sect Master Zhu could not react at all!
With a swish!
Sect Master Zhu was beheaded!
His head was separated from his body!
“Hmm?”
Chen An was stunned.
An Almighty whose cultivation had reached the third level of Foundation Establishment was killed by me with a single strike?
So weak? Or am I too strong?
Just as he was thinking this, Sect Master Zhu’s decapitated corpse suddenly turned into two pieces of wood and fell from the high wall.
They fell to the ground one after another, making two dull thuds.
At the same time, Sect Master Zhu’s voice came from the wooden wall on the other side.
“Climbing on the wall?”
“You don’t know how to fly on a sword?”
“Are you really a Foundation Establishment Cultivator?”
Sect Master Zhu’s face was filled with surprise. This was the first time he had seen a Foundation Establishment Cultivator who did not know how to fly on a sword. This was unheard of and unbelievable.
Chen An did not say anything. He turned around and rushed out, slashing at Sect Master Zhu again.
Swoosh!
A slash sounded. Sect Master Zhu was beheaded again.
However, just like before, his decapitated corpse quickly turned into two pieces of wood and fell from the wail.
Chen An frowned. This was troublesome. He could not deal with this leader at all.
“Although I don’t know how you killed all five of them, one thing I’m sure of now is that you can’t do me any harm at all.”
Sect Master Zhu’s voice sounded from the wooden wall on the other side.
Then, before Chen An could do anything, the spiritual power in his body erupted. He controlled countless sharp branches and leaves to turn into sharp blades that shot towards Chen An like a rain of arrows.
Chen An did not dare to take it head-on. Without a word, he jumped down from the wooden wall and landed safely with a thud. He erupted all the spiritual power in his body and fled in the direction where the vegetation was sparse.
Sect Master Zhu was a Wood-type Spiritual Root Cultivator.
He had mastered several wood-type spells.
Chen An knew very well that as long as he was still in the forest, he could not defeat Zhu Sect Master.
He was very helpless, but this was the truth. This was the disadvantage of a loose Cultivator when facing a second-generation immortal.
If Chen An was also a second-generation immortal and had learned all kinds of fire spells since he was young, he wouldn’t be at a disadvantage now.
After all, fire could burn plants.
“Alchemist Chen, I won’t kill you. I’ll capture you alive and send you to my father. I’ll refine your soul and extract your memories.”
Sect Master Zhu flew on his sword and chased after Chen An. As he chased, he exerted psychological interference on Chen An, who was running wildly below.
Throughout the entire process, he maintained a safe distance from Chen An and did not give him any chance to attack.
He had been controlling the plants to attack Chen An and test his strength.
At the same time, he planned to exhaust the spiritual power in Chen An’s body before going down to harvest his body.
Chen An ignored him and didn’t even use his golden light. He ran at full speed without saying a word.
He sensed a cave ahead.
As long as he could enter the cave, he would be able to even out the disadvantageous terrain in the forest and have the chance to kill Sect Master Zhu!
Sect Master Zhu also sensed a cave ahead.
However, he did not stop Chen An. He allowed Chen An to approach the cave.
Soon, Chen An rushed into the cave and completely escaped the entanglement of the plants.
Sect Master Zhu floated in front of the cave entrance on his sword and said with a playful expression, “Alchemist Chen, do you think I can’t do anything to you if there’s no vegetation in the cave?”
“You might not know this, but I’m actually a Cultivator with two types of spiritual roots, Earth and Wood.”
“Moreover, the Earth-type spells I know are far stronger than Wood-type spells.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Sect Master Zhu jumped down from the sword, reached out, grabbed the hilt, and walked towards the cave.
At this moment, he had almost figured out Chen An’s strength.
It was nothing more than a strange first-level Foundation Establishment Cultivator who had cultivated Goldfinger to the fourth level and didn’t know any other spells, but his physical body was much stronger than other Cultivators of the same level.
He was only a Level 1 Foundation Establishment Cultivator. No matter how invincible he was, he was no match for him, whose cultivation was as high as Level 3 Foundation Establishment.
In the cave, Chen An heard what Sect Master Zhu said at the entrance.
However, he did not panic. He only took out various medicine bottles from his storage bag without a word, pulled out the stopper, and scattered all the medicinal powder in the air, causing it to spread throughout the entire cave.
The cave was a natural enclosed space. It was the best place to make dust bombs..
