Chapter 2401: The clever demonic body
When I was a demon infant, I had an invisible bond with my original body. My value to the Son of Heavenly Dao Palace was that I could sense the original body's qi within a certain range.
Now that I have a physical body, a little spiritual light is trapped in the physical body, and I have gradually lost this means.
After all, no matter what, my demon infant came from my original body in the past, and the physical body was reshaped, not by a scattered immortal, but by the Son of Heavenly Dao Palace with the help of spiritual objects from heaven and earth and external objects.
But for the original body, maybe... there is still a way to perceive my existence and the direction within a certain range.
Thinking of this, the eyes of the demon cultivator flashed, and the whole person suddenly became clear in an instant.
"If he could sense my position in advance, he must have concealed his breath and hid himself."
"With such a short time, he can't run too far with his cultivation level."
"He was clearly heading for Zhongzhou all the way here. Did he want to use the distraction period that was taking action there to ensure his own safety?"
"It was a good plan! Unfortunately, since I have seen through the target, he is doomed to be unable to escape today!"
While muttering, the powerful spiritual consciousness of the demon cultivator's body also descended from the sky, penetrating nearly a hundred feet into the depths of the earth, spanning a horizontal line of a thousand feet, and exploring in the direction of Zhongzhou.
Just as Su Twelve guessed, guessing that Su Twelve was heading for Zhongzhou, the first reaction of the demon cultivator's body was to explore in the direction of Zhongzhou.
The cultivator's spiritual consciousness is powerful, and as the cultivation level increases, the range that can be extended and scanned will continue to expand.
But the spiritual consciousness often only scans the outline of the object.
For a physical object, it is undoubtedly much more troublesome to explore the situation inside.
Therefore, if it is underground, or in the mountains, or even in the water... and other such environments that are not directly exposed to air.
The effect of the spiritual sense exploration will inevitably be greatly reduced.
Only if the demon cultivator's body is at a high enough level and has profound skills, he can penetrate a hundred feet into the earth while also extending his spiritual sense across a thousand feet.
For a being in the Out-of-Body Stage, just probing his spiritual sense into the ground for a hundred feet under his body is probably the limit of most people.
The demon cultivator's body's spiritual sense scanned forward all the way, and his flying figure also moved again.
The forward speed was obviously much slower than before.
But this is also relative to the existence of the Spiritual Severing Stage, and it is still slightly better than the speed of the Out-of-Body cultivator.
One hour later.
The demon cultivator's body rushed forward for more than two thousand miles in one breath.
The most important thing is that after this hour, the demon cultivator's body did not notice Su Twelve's actions at all.
At first, it was thought that Su Twelve was acting cautiously and handled his breath very cleanly.
Later, he had chased for hundreds of miles, and he felt unwilling to give up just like that.
He couldn't help thinking that maybe the person he was looking for was not far ahead, and he might find him if he walked a little further.
Sunk costs always affect people's minds unconsciously.
Immortal cultivators are no exception. After all, they are all living people who have not cut off their seven emotions and six desires.
No matter how rational and objective they are, there will be a time when they are blinded by a leaf.
In this way, suddenly, an hour passed. The body of the demon cultivator, under the influence of this strange psychology, drove a full two thousand miles.
What he didn't know was that Su Twelve had been following him at a leisurely speed, slowly rushing towards the direction of Zhongzhou.
The body of the demon cultivator ran ahead, and there were no pursuers behind him, so Su Twelve naturally didn't need to be so anxious.
It was just the right opportunity to recover the lost immortal essence while rushing on the road.
On the other hand, the body of the demon cultivator ran more than two thousand miles while maintaining his spiritual consciousness with all his strength in one hour.
Such high-intensity energy-raising and spiritual awareness use also took a lot of toll on him.
The consumption of the demonic essence in his body was the greatest, but with the "spiritual pill" constantly refining the spiritual energy, the consumption was restored at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Although the consumption could not be completely offset by the in and out, there was still a lot of demonic essence left.
But the spiritual awareness was consumed, and it could not be replenished in a short time.
Feeling the weakness coming from the empty sea of consciousness, the body of the demon cultivator was suddenly startled.
The next moment, the figure paused in the air again.
The spiritual awareness that penetrated deep into the earth also quickly gathered back to its own sea of consciousness.
"Damn it, he actually ran so far without knowing it?"
"If we go forward, it's only three to five hundred miles to reach the border of Zhongzhou. We haven't found any trace of that guy here. If we go forward, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get anything."
"The most important thing is that if he uses the escape method and escape talisman to travel underground, it will consume a lot of his own skills, and it is impossible to speed up."
"Unless, when he disappeared at the beginning, he didn't continue to move forward in the direction of Zhongzhou, but chose other directions?"
"Yes, whether it's his real body or not, that guy is not a simple person. Since he knew I was chasing him, he must have expected it. I won't let it go."
"It's not surprising that I would track in this direction if I expected it in advance. On the contrary, it would be strange if I didn't expect it!"
"Damn it, I just reacted now."
The body of the demon cultivator frowned, and muttered to himself again.
Thinking that he was tricked by Su Shier, his anger surged in his heart, his fists clenched, and his teeth were bitten by him at this moment.
Being teased by others is not a pleasant feeling.
After saying this, the demon cultivator turned around quickly and looked in the direction from which he came.
After realizing this, he immediately thought that Su Twelve might be heading in the opposite direction, or even in the direction he came from.
But as soon as he moved, he immediately thought of another problem.
Whether Su Twelve went back or in other directions, as long as he reacted, he could immediately change direction and continue tracking.
It was only two thousand miles in one hour, which was nothing.
After all, he was a Spirit Severing Stage being, and he could afford to waste this little time.
But for Su Twelve, it was a different situation.
If he could not find a Spirit Severing Stage being to help him as soon as possible, his life would always be hanging by a thread.
Thinking of this, the eyes of the demon cultivator lit up.
"A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. No one can help him. No matter how you escape, it is only a temporary solution."
"Then what should I do if I want to be truly safe?"
"Fake a shot, but actually follow me. In this way, even if I realize that something is wrong and go back to find him from the direction he disappeared, he can take this opportunity to continue to rush to Zhongzhou!"
"Yes, that must be the case! With that guy's wisdom, he must have thought of this."
"Huh... It's a close call. I almost fell into that guy's trap again!"
Muttering softly, the frown on the demon cultivator's body slowly relaxed.
No matter how you look at it, Su Shier's calculation is indeed very clever.
He has been deceived once. If he hadn't thought about this step more, he would most likely be deceived again.
