Chapter 1539: Chapter 0889: Loss of Reason from Greed Chapter 1539: Chapter 0889: Loss of Reason from Greed Chapter 0889: Greed Overwhelms Wisdom

Qi Tian had been utilizing the sensory functions of the Heavenly Dao Engine, constantly monitoring the situation of the Nascent Soul Masters who were chasing him. Naturally, Qi Tian had no intention of sitting down and chatting with these people; instead, he planned to find a suitable place to thoroughly deal with them.

Letting those Nascent Soul Masters catch up to him now was definitely not appropriate. After all, they were too close to Haishan City. Once a fight broke out here, those Nascent Soul Masters, after understanding his real combat power, would definitely seek help from Haishan City. In that case, Qi Tian might face an all-out attack from the entire Haishan City’s cultivation community, and he did not have the capability to confront the whole city yet.

Qi Tian engaged in constant calculations. While he was in Haishan City, although he concealed his real na and origin, he did not hide his cultivation at the Perfect Gold Core Stage. In such a realm, the maximum distance a cultivator could sense was almost public knowledge; there were hardly any secrets.

When those Nascent Soul Masters reached that distance, Qi Tian feigned sudden realization of the pursuers, kicking Huo Yunbiao’s belly with his heel, making Huo Yunbiao hurry to increase his speed.

The Nascent Soul Masters behind quickly noticed Qi Tian’s change. Instead of halting their pursuit, it evoked a thrill of hunting their prey, creating an uproar.

Qi Tian had stayed in Haishan City for forty days, during which his performance was too dazzling. More importantly, Qi Tian had earned an enormous amount of top-grade spirit stones, fueling envy. Beholding the top-grade spirit stones alone, those Nascent Soul Masters wouldn’t think of letting Qi Tian escape.

In this way, Qi Tian ran ahead while the greedy Nascent Soul Masters pursued him from behind. Unknowingly, more than an hour had passed, and by then, Qi Tian had reached a tranquil valley more than eight hundred miles from Haishan City. After scouting the area, he learned it was deserted within a hundred miles around, ensuring no unwanted attention.

Qi Tian no longer wished to keep running. He waved his hand and began making so rudintary setups in the valley, primarily releasing all sorts of supportive combat forces he controlled, such as lustrous sand, Transporting Whirlwind, and ghost faces, instructing them to find appropriate places to hide.

The first to receive Qi Tian’s command was the lustrous sand. Before those Nascent Soul Masters arrived, the sand began to emit large amounts of black fog, which, under Qi Tian’s direction, was very thin, filling the entire valley. If soone stood outside the valley, they could barely make out the conditions inside through the fog, and even using Divine Sense, the fog wouldn’t completely impede it.

This was the Ensnaring Fog Array that Qi Tian set up, mixing reality with illusion, best at bewildering people.

Moreover, Qi Tian took so items from his Storage Bag and began to fumble around on the ground.

Soon after, those Nascent Soul Masters arrived. They imdiately noticed the anomaly in the valley, with the black fog drawing their initial attention.

If it were another occasion, they would have surely taken their ti to study the black fog carefully, particularly since the valley chosen by Qi Tian was far from Haishan City. More than one of these Nascent Soul Masters had visited here before and knew the area well. However, they had never seen black fog here before, which definitely warranted a thorough investigation.

But the problem was that they didn’t wait to act because they imdiately noticed Qi Tian’s activities.

Right under their watch, Qi Tian was rapidly constructing a Teleportation Array, which was beginning to take shape. Soon, the Teleportation Array would be completed.

What would happen after it was completed was self-evident. Once Qi Tian stepped into the Teleportation Array and activated it, their chances of capturing him would be virtually impossible.

These Nascent Soul Masters couldn’t possibly allow such a thing to happen. They didn’t care about anything else; they knew that every second delayed allowed Qi Tian to perfect the Teleportation Array, reducing the possibility of capturing him even further. If they let Qi Tian escape after all their hard efforts, what was the point of their arduous pursuit?

At that mont, only one thought dominated the minds of the Nascent Soul Masters: no matter what, they could not allow Qi Tian to complete the Teleportation Array. They had to race against ti to stop him.

Driven by overwhelming greed, these Nascent Soul Masters lost their heads for a mont, ignoring any potential dangers in and around the valley, charging headlong into it. Their actions weren’t completely irrational, as they had strength in numbers. Even if Qi Tian had set so traps, the limited ti ant they couldn’t be too formidable. As for dealing with Huo Yunbiao, just detaching a few comrades would suffice to keep him busy.

In an instant, all dozen Nascent Soul Masters had rushed into the valley, like a pack of hounds that had spotted their prey, aggressively advancing towards Qi Tian.

Qi Tian appeared unaware of their presence, continuing to thodically set up the Teleportation Array. Just as the Nascent Soul Masters believed they could capture him easily, a sudden change occurred.

The thin layer of black fog that had shrouded the entire valley suddenly thickened, imdiately turning the valley pitch dark, where one couldn’t see their own hands, and their Divine Sense was severely restricted. At that mont, the Nascent Soul Masters lost all perception of their surroundings, seeing nothing but fog and unable to discern where Qi Tian was.

The Nascent Soul Masters imdiately realized sothing was wrong. They split into three groups—the danger-sensitive ones began to turn back and fly away, the more courageous maintained their original direction, charging towards the location where they rembered Qi Tian to be, while the rest attempted to contact their companions, hoping to unite their forces to confront Qi Tian.

None of their choices were wrong, and anyone else would likely have done the sa. However, today they were dealing with Qi Tian, and how could Qi Tian afford them any opportunity?

As the black fog engulfed the valley, under Qi Tian’s command, Huo Yunbiao returned to his ferocious form and, flapping his wings, pounced on the closest Nascent Soul Master.

In the fog, the Nascent Soul Masters were caught between advancing and retreating. Outside, they might have managed to calm themselves, but here, everything happened so suddenly that Qi Tian gave them no ti to react before Huo Yunbiao struck.
