Chapter 1523: Dormant!

Just when Ye Chuyun was hesitating.

After a while, the situation worsened.

The Black Swamp King screamed, his arm broken by a Dragon Blood Guard, and fell from the air.

The Hurricane King relied on his speed to maneuver, but he was also surrounded by danger.

The other soldiers suffered heavy casualties, the defense line was constantly retreating, and collapse seemed imminent.

The Dragon Emperor on the chariot didn't even move from beginning to end, but just watched indifferently, as if he was watching a drama that had nothing to do with him.

This cannot go on.

Ye Chuyun's brain was working rapidly.

Fighting hard will only lead to death. If you fail the assessment, everything is over.

"Everyone listen up!" Ye Chuyun's voice was forcibly transmitted into the minds of every soldier through his mental power.

"Move closer to me and prepare to retreat!"

While giving the order, he almost drained his mental strength and used his spatial talent desperately.

Space gates opened frantically behind the battlefield, but they seemed to flicker.

Obviously, casting spells on such a large scale under the suppression of the rules of heaven was a huge burden for him.

"Retreat, retreat!"

"Come in!"

Black Claw, Giant Mountain and others heard the order. Although they were unwilling, they also understood that this was the only way to survive. They struggled to break away from their opponents, dived down, and covered the retreat of the troops on the ground.

"Want to leave?" A leader of the Dragon Blood Guards sneered and punched out, smashing into a space gate.

"Don't think about it!"

King Lieyang and Queen Bingpo roared at the same time, and tried their best to take the blow. They worked together to block the punch, and flew backwards with blood spurting out. They were caught by Black Claw and Giant Mountain and dragged into the space gate.

The scene was extremely chaotic, with weapons and armor abandoned and heavy casualties.

Ye Chuyun stood in front of the last space gate, his face pale and his mental energy greatly depleted.

He looked at the dragonborn warriors who were coming like a tide, and then looked at those warriors who failed to retreat in time, his eyes filled with coldness and anger.

The Dragon Emperor on the golden chariot raised his eyes slightly, glanced at the slowly closing space door and Ye Chuyun in front of the door. A subtle fluctuation seemed to flash in his red pupils, but he did not make a move in the end.

The last space gate closed.

Ye Chuyun disappeared on the spot with his remaining troops.

The dragonborn warriors also stopped chasing, quickly cleaning up the battlefield and eliminating the remaining remnants.

The Dragon Emperor lazily changed his posture, and his faint voice echoed in the empty battlefield.

"Mice can run."

"Well, next time, it won't be so easy."

.....

Ye Chuyun and the remaining team appeared on a desolate ice field.

All around are endless pale and sporadic black rock formations.

This is already the edge of the Northern Territory, with a harsh environment and few people.

"Cough cough!!"

King Lieyang suddenly coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood, his face as pale as paper. Queen Bingpo was supporting him at the side, also looking weak.

Black Claw and Giant Mountain were also seriously injured, and their aura was far less powerful than before.

Further behind, the soldiers who followed them out were all wounded, looked exhausted, and their faces were filled with the humiliation of defeat.

The team size has shrunk by nearly one-third compared to before, which is a heavy loss.

“Bastard!!” Black Claw punched the ice rock next to him hard, and the ice burst instantly.

"Those bastards!"

Jushan lowered his head silently, his fists clenched so tightly that his nails almost dug into his palms.

Yan, Duya, Shidun and others also had faces full of resentment and resentment.

Once glorious, it was beaten so badly in the blink of an eye, almost returning to the original starting point. This gap is hard to accept.

Ye Chuyun's face was a little pale, and his mental strength had not recovered so quickly due to excessive consumption.

He looked around at this desolate and unfamiliar place, then looked at the group of wounded warriors around him, and the coldness and anger in his eyes gradually faded.

"No matter how angry you are, you can't change any facts." Ye Chuyun spoke calmly, attracting everyone's attention.

"The Dragonborn Court is very powerful, more powerful than we imagined."

"This failure was due to our lack of preparation and underestimation of our opponent."

He paused and said, "But this also means that our previous path was not wrong. Only by possessing absolute strength can we control our own destiny."

Ye Chuyun looked at the three people including King Lieyang and said, "Give me all the sixth-level skills that you have treasured."

Upon hearing this, the four of them immediately bowed and accepted the order without any hesitation.

They are now loyal to Ye Chuyun with both body and soul, so naturally they have no reservations.

Ye Chuyun took the technique that the four had quickly recorded and said in a deep voice, "From today on, we will set up a temporary camp here, focus on healing the wounded, and be on guard for patrols."

"I will begin my retreat and will not come out until I have deduced the seventh level of the 'Four Symbols Returning to the Origin' Art', which leads directly to the seventh level."

"During this period, if the Dragonborn Royal Court's search team discovers this place, there is no need to fight to the death. I will sense it and immediately activate the spatial gate. Everyone must evacuate immediately. Preserving lives is the top priority."

"Yes!" everyone responded in unison, with hope rekindled in their eyes.

Yes, they also have the Chosen One.

As long as adults are around, there is hope.

Soon, a temporary camp was established in this desolate ice field.

Ye Chuyun chose a relatively hidden ice cave, set up a simple restriction, and then, holding four sets of skills, he completely immersed himself in the deduction of the seventh level of skills.

......

The process is countless times more difficult than deducing the sixth level.

It is difficult to create original exercises in itself.

Ye Chuyun was a latecomer and had no similar experience before.

It's like crossing the river by feeling the stones.

The previous deduction of the sixth level of the technique was somewhat coincidental.

Just then, an idea came to his mind and the sixth level of the technique was created.

The four sixth-level skills provided by King Lieyang and his men each had their own focus, but also each had its own flaws, and all remained within the scope of the sixth level. They were vague about how to break through that barrier.

Or rather, their pioneers were unable to truly reach it.

Ye Chuyun, with his immense mental power as the basis, continuously analyzed and simulated...

His mental strength was being consumed at an unprecedented rate. If it weren't for his strong foundation, he would have collapsed long ago.

During this period, as Ye Chuyun expected, the search team of the Dragon King's Court passed through this area several times, and even almost discovered their hiding place once.

Every time, Ye Chuyun would wake up from the deduction in advance, forcefully interrupt it, open the space door immediately, and quickly move all the personnel.

Every move means the need to find a suitable hiding place and rebuild the camp, which is a considerable drain on morale and energy.

The Dragonborn Court is a time bomb for them.

But Ye Chuyun always remained calm.

He continued to deduce against the clock.

Fail, transfer, re-deduce, transfer again...

In this environment, more than a month passed quietly.
