This set of skills Qiao Ying was unleashing was known as the ‘Inescapable Net’. There was a connection between each strike that was delivered, in which an air-tight cage would be formed, covering from the sky to the ground. Even the most superior of techniques were useless in a dimension like this!
Although Qiao Ying could use the ‘All Seeing Eye’ to see where Jun Mo Xie actually was, she felt that this guy’s techniques seemed vastly different from the strange races,and was even harder to decipher.
After the strange races use their techniques, she could still see a clear human body in her eyes! But when this guy did it, she could only see a faint silhouette at the very best!
There was a certain amount of preparation time required if she was to use more powerful tactics. And this guy was too alert; he’d be able to notice the moment she was activating it, and take that opportunity to escape. He was so agile. Although her agility was also extraordinary, but it was still inferior in comparison. And he just had to be well-versed in techniques, able to utilize it his will, so she really did not have full confidence in capturing him.
The best bet was to proceed in a way similar to the boiling frog experiment. Using Inescapable Net, this seemingly gentile and mellow skill to make him slowly lower his guard. And when he realized it, he wouldn’t be able to move or escape. It would be too late.
The Inescapable Net was a unique skill that the seniors of the Holy Lands created to counter the strange races’ techniques. There was a connection in the Qi between each strike that could locate the location of the strange races. Even though they were still hidden and concealed, they would be able to attack their invisible enemies with the guide of the Qi.
Just that this particular skill’s basic prerequisite for Xuan Qi was simply too high, so even if it was a Saint Emperor who used the Inescapable Net, all their Xuan Qi was only enough to use it once! And after using it, they’d be completely drained and would usually perish with the enemy! Which meant that it would be a life for a life when using this skill! But right now, this set of skill was easily and effortlessly used by Qiao Ying and her immense foundations of Xuan Qi!
A cold smirk lingered on Qiao Ying’s lip. She sketched a faint line and left a snowy white palm print. And that enormous strength just slowly lingered in the air... coagulating... and slowly gathered towards the center...
“Lady, are you tired? It is very draining for you to be like this. Why don’t you take a drink?” Jun Mo Xie chuckled, still dodging about with ease.
He could already tell that this opponent before him, although her strength was profound to an unimaginable state, she had no idea how to use it. Each strike was hitting to empty spots. How could she destroy the enemy battling like this? And this old senior who claimed to have lived for thousand years seemed to be even more pure and easily provoked than a young little girl...
So Jun Mo Xie’s honeyed-tongue became of use again... Make her agitated while it’s early and then find an opportunity to quickly escape. Otherwise, having an old demoness like this that can see through my Yin Yang Escape following me... This feeling is too scary!
Qiao Ying scoffed, her strikes instantly gaining speed, although she still couldn’t hit him!
Jun Mo Xie bent backwards and dodged a strike. He was just about to tease her, but he suddenly noticed that the surrounding air had turned solid in an instant... A feeling as if there was a wall that stretched from heaven down to earth. Although it was not a direct imprisonment like the World Cage, it was another type of imprisonment that gradually restricted your mobility space.Shoot...
Young Master Jun forcefully ducked two more times and finally became completely unable to move...
Qiao Ying finally stopped, a cold smirk on her face. “Jun Mo Xie, how is my Inescapable Net? Is it really useless? Weren’t you full of comments? Why don’t you tell me a couple of sentences now.”
“Indeed, it is not bad! To think that this seemingly utterly useless skill is actually a despicable skill, as expected, it is impressive!” Jun Mo Xie’s body was frozen in the air, but that annoying smirk still graced the corner of his lips. He taunted, “But... using so much strength only to create a Qi Field similar to World Cage... don’t you think it is a bit troublesome?”
“You are not wrong, this is indeed similar to the World Cage, and has the similar intentions of perishing together as well! But this cage is completely created out of Xuan Qi and did not use any Power of Heaven and Earth! This skill is intentionally and specially created to deal with monsters like you who can conceal yourselves! Jun Mo Xie, the treatment you are receiving right now is the same as the strange races, the Supremacy Enduring Heavens! You should be feeling proud!”
“F*ck! Don’t compare this Young Master to trash! What should I be proud of?! You are really an irritating woman! How dare you offend the biggest taboo in this Young Master’s heart!” Jun Mo Xie yelled, furious.
“So what if I offended it?” Qiao Ying scoffed, a pleased look appeared on her face. She moved over, lifted her hand, about to slap down harshly on Jun Mo Xie’s face. “Weren’t you really capable of dodging? Why don’t you dodge!”
Jun Mo Xie stared at her palm expressionlessly.
Before it landed on his cheek, Qiao Ying had unexpectedly hesitated. “As long as you are willing to promise to go back with me to clarify the misunderstandings with the four factions, I promise not to hit you. And after this matter, I will release you and let you leave unscathed. How is that?”
“No can do! This Young Master would rather die than give in!” Jun Mo Xie glared.
“But I really do not wish to hurt you! My hands had never been tainted with the blood of humans. Aside from the strange races, I do not wish to harm any life on the Continent!”
Qiao Ying bit her bottom lip and said, “There is no big hatred between you all, and besides, you had said so earlier, they are heroes of the War for Seizing the Heavens... and you clearly also despise the strange races... Why can’t we work together? Why don’t we work together and return peace to this world? Even if no one will remember us, we would have ultimately done our part for this Continent! Jun Mo Xie... Consider it. I swear in the name of the All Seeing Rakshesha, that as long as you are willing to mend your ways, I will definitely assure the safety of your life, and let you leave unscathed! No one from the three Holy Lands shall dare to lay their hands on even a single strand of hair on you!
“As long as you are willing to consent, I can also forget all about the matter just now where you offended me and pretend it never happened. How is that?!”
After saying this, her eyes looked at Jun Mo Xie in anticipation. The strange races were good at their techniques of concealment, but if we have an expert that is even more superior than them at such techniques... This is great news for the War for Seizing the Heavens!
So Qiao Ying who had been used to always considering for the bigger picture still ultimately decided to use all her might to convince Jun Mo Xie to mend his ways!
“You are really too noble, but also too naive.” Jun Mo Xie was a little amazed. This woman before him was really considering for the sake of the world and the War for Seizing the Heavens wholeheartedly, with no desire for credit... This was really worthy of admiration! She was just like Mei Xue Yan of the past, or perhaps even worse!
How many of such people were there truly... someone like this, in the three Holy Lands?
“If everyone was like you, then there would be no War for Seizing the Heavens in this world!” Jun Mo Xie said indifferently. “The reputation of a hero is not a reason to enjoy privileges and protecting the world is also not a reason for you to kill indiscriminately! The War for Seizing the Heavens is also not a vanity fair... but it’s a pity, that although the people of the three Holy Lands have the greatest responsibilities for War for Seizing the Heavens, but even more than that, the responsibility for their selfish desires, massacre of innocent lives, cruelty, and lack of conscience! Although I, Jun Mo Xie, am no good person, and am also willing to do my part for War for Seizing the Heavens, but no matter what, I’m full of disdain for joining forces with them!”
Qiao Ying’s face darkened, a look of pity in her eyes as she looked at Jun Mo Xie. “Since things have reached this point, there is no longer any more room for negotiation. I cannot just watch as the four factions fall apart just because I admire you. Pardon me!”
Jun Mo Xie chuckled, a gentle look on his face. “You and her, are really similar! The way you talk... I can tell that it is really coming from your sincere heart. So... This Young Master will also not make things difficult for you... Farewell!”
With a flash, in that air-tight cage of the Inescapable Net formed from pure Xuan Qi, he suddenly vanished!
Qiao Ying was taken aback, instantly activating her All Seeing Eye, looking around in the surroundings. Everywhere was deserted, and there was no trace of anyone else, Jun Mo Xie had really vanished into thin-air... Qiao Ying had saw it clearly, Young Master Jun did not use any techniques this time, but he just mysteriously vanished!
This... what sort of skill is this?
And... there was one more strange thing. Every time she used her All Seeing Eye in the secular world, she would always see countless of spirits and ghosts wandering about. But this time, she did not see anything but floating mist everywhere!
This... what is this? Could all the ghosts and spirits of the world have completely disappeared? She couldn’t help but feel a little relieved thinking about this...
Although she had immense strength that was unparalleled in this world and was capable of seeing all supernatural, but ultimately, she was still a woman! Women, or even majority of the world, would be nervous and scared of those things... If she could no longer see them from now on, Qiao Ying felt a lot more relieved...
Qiao Ying was still deep in thoughts when her eye suddenly noticed that many human figures were walking over. All of them deathly pale, some were headless, some had no body, some were crippled, they were all coming over, floating in the air...
“Ah!” Qiao Ying screamed and quickly stopped her All Seeing Eye. With a flash, she flew in the direction of Chrysanthemum City in a panic...
After that unhappy separation earlier, the three Holy Lands were extremely angered, only viewing the Misty Illusory Manor was an enemy. The three Saint Emperors who were the leaders were even more furious, instantly sending a pigeon to deliver a message to the higher levels of the Holy Land the moment they went back! Then, they gathered everyone who was there currently and announced this matter.
Everyone was agitated instantly!
