Chapter 13584 plundering
The one guarding the Magic Book Pavilion is the Book Demon, one of the Thirteen Demons. The Book Demon is proficient in various ancient magic books. His cultivation is unfathomable and he is an extremely powerful existence in the Magic Tower. He is like a solid line of defense, guarding the safety of the Magic Book Pavilion.
However, it was obviously not feasible to use the previous method of distracting the enemy again. It worked last time because the enemy was not prepared, but this time they must have been more vigilant.
If he lets his outer body lure the book demon away again this time, not only will he fail to achieve his goal, but he will also expose his position and put himself in an even more dangerous situation.
So, after careful consideration, Ling Xiao chose a bolder and crazier approach.
He decided to expose himself deliberately to attract the attention of the masters of the Demonic Tower, and let the outer body seize the unique skills of the Demonic Book Pavilion. This plan is full of risks. If something goes wrong, he may fall into a desperate situation, but it is also the method with the highest success rate.
About a quarter of an hour later, near the Magic Treasure Pavilion, Ling Xiao deliberately released a trace of his own aura. Although the aura was weak, it was like a ray of light in the darkness to the ever-vigilant Treasure Demon, and immediately attracted his attention.
Bao Mo's eyes widened instantly, and a look of surprise appeared on his face. He did not dare to delay for even a moment and hurriedly reported this important news to Chongxuan.
After hearing the news, a hint of excitement and ferocity flashed in Chongxuan's eyes, and he shouted: "I finally found you. Let's see how you can escape this time! Everyone, chase him!" After that, he took the lead to chase in the direction where Ling Xiao's breath came from, and a group of masters from the Demon Tower followed behind.
At this time, Ling Xiao was quickly fleeing outside the Demon Tower. His figure was like a ghost, shuttling through the passages of the Demon Tower. Each of his steps was carefully calculated, maintaining a sufficient speed without making himself too tired.
He knew his plan was full of dangers, but he also had his own confidence and assurance. The technique he practiced gave him the ability to resurrect, so even if he died once in this operation, he could still be resurrected again with the magical life-saving hair.
Therefore, he was not afraid of danger, but only had a firm determination to achieve his goal.
When Ling Xiao's original body successfully attracted all the masters from the Demon Tower, his external body quietly came to the Demon Book Pavilion like a ghost.
There are no powerful restrictions on the martial arts in the Demon Book Pavilion. Perhaps the top leaders of the Demon Book Pavilion believe that with the book demon guarding it, no one can break in easily.
Therefore, after entering the Demonic Book Pavilion, the body went straight to those precious secret books and put them into his pocket without hesitation. The action was clean and neat, without any drag.
The Book Demon who was guarding the Demonic Book Pavilion saw the commotion of everyone chasing after them and also wanted to make a contribution, so he hurriedly chased after them, wanting to do his part in capturing Ling Xiao.
"Book Demon, what are you doing here!" Chongxuan was chasing Lingxiao with all his might, and suddenly found that the Book Demon was chasing him, and he immediately became furious.
He widened his eyes and shouted, "Hurry back and guard the Magic Book Pavilion. Be careful that this kid might have accomplices who take advantage of the chaos to steal the secret skills. If something goes wrong with the Magic Book Pavilion, can you afford it?"
When the Book Demon heard Zhongxuan's roar, he was suddenly startled and realized what a serious mistake he had made. His face turned pale in an instant, and his heart was filled with regret and fear.
He didn't dare to stop for even a second, and turned around and rushed towards the Magic Book Pavilion. However, it was too late.
When he returned to the Demonic Book Pavilion, panting, he saw only empty shelves. Those precious martial arts skills had long disappeared. The Book Demon collapsed to the ground, his face full of despair and self-blame.
When the outer body succeeded, Ling Xiao's frown finally relaxed. This operation was indeed full of dangers, and the slightest mistake could lead to eternal damnation.
Now that his goal has been achieved, he will no longer foolishly take that unnecessary risk. His eyes were stern, and he made a decisive decision. I didn't dare to stay for even a moment, and immediately prepared to run away.
At this moment, he held the Mist Hidden Cloak tightly in his hand. This cloak was one of his life-saving magic weapons. It was light and thin like a cicada's wing, but it had an extremely magical effect.
Ling Xiao carefully unfolded the cloak and shook it gently. The cloak covered him perfectly, as if it had merged with him. He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down quickly. Then he slowly stood still, his body as still as a steady sculpture.
At this moment, the air around him seemed to stagnate slightly because of his presence. The Mist Cloak completely concealed his aura, as if he had disappeared from this world.
Even if an enemy was close at hand, as long as he maintained this state, it would be absolutely difficult to detect his whereabouts. After all, this Mist Hidden Cloak was not just for nothing, it had helped him escape danger many times at critical moments.
Ling Xiao sneered silently in his heart. He didn't believe that the owner of the Demon Tower, Chongxuan, would have the time to continue wasting time with him.
Although Chongxuan was the owner of the Demon Tower, he was extremely powerful and had many experts under him, but the affairs of the Demon Tower were complicated and it was impossible for him to focus all his energy on it for a long time. Moreover, Lingxiao had always been treacherous and changeable. It was like looking for a needle in a haystack for Chongxuan to find him when he was hiding quietly like this.
Only three days had passed when there was movement in the Demon Tower. One morning, Ling Xiao hid in the dark and through a tiny gap saw Chongxuan, with a gloomy face, leaving with a group of masters from the Demon Tower.
It seems that Chongxuan also felt that it was no longer necessary to stay here, and perhaps he had other more important matters to deal with. However, Chongxuan did not completely give up the search for Ling Xiao. He left some disciples of the Demon Tower to wait nearby, hoping to capture Ling Xiao in one fell swoop when he appeared.
However, in Ling Xiao's eyes, Chongxuan's move was futile. With these disciples of the Demon Tower, even if he didn't wear the Mist Hidden Cloak and walked past them openly, they might not be able to detect it.
The strength of these disciples is far inferior to that of Chongxuan. Ling Xiao shook his head slightly, his eyes full of disdain. In his long experience, he had already mastered various techniques of hiding his body and avoiding detection. These disciples of the Demon Tower were as immature as children in front of him.
Ling Xiao took advantage of the Demon Tower disciples' laziness and quietly left the Demon Tower. He moved forward in the darkness like a ghost without making any sound. However, he did not leave the Star-Picking Tower City.
At the moment, apart from the people in the Demon Tower who were looking for him everywhere, most other people still thought he was far away outside the city. (End of this chapter)
