Chapter 218 Dead End
"How is it possible that you also know the art of space?"
Bai Fusheng knew very well how rare the ability with spatial attributes was. In the hundreds of years on the Huanggu Continent, no one else possessed this ability except him. The last time he encountered one, it was in a cultivator.
He stared at Fang Xiao in a daze. If it weren't for the severe pain from the injury on his shoulder, he wouldn't have dared to believe what was happening before his eyes.
"How does my Void Escape Technique compare to the Void Refining Gu? I wonder if it will be worthy of Brother Bai Daoist's appreciation."
Bai Fusheng suddenly came back to his senses. Without bothering to treat his injuries, he gritted his teeth and immediately used the Liankong Gu again to move to another place.
However, the moment he landed, he was horrified to find that Fang Xiao was already standing opposite him, looking at him with a smile.
Bai Fusheng was so frightened that he took two steps back.
Although Fang Xiao did not take action this time, he dared not stay any longer.
He hurriedly continued to move out, performing this move more than ten times in a row. There were even a few times when he himself did not know the specific location of the move.
However, every time Fang Xiao would arrive before him and appear around him the moment he arrived, as if he could predict the future.
In fact, Fang Xiao also felt sorry for Liankong Gu. It was such a waste of resources to have such a good thing fall into the hands of such a stupid person.
The reason why Fang Xiao is always one step ahead of him is not because he has the ability to predict, but because of his special gift of space.
No matter how the Liankong Gu is concealed, space fluctuations will inevitably occur the moment it moves. Fang Xiao can only make advance predictions after he has insight into its direction in space.
In comparison, the art of teleportation is limited by the sword light and can only interact at two fixed points. It is not as free and easy as the art of refining the Void Gu. If it can be developed to the extreme, one may not be invincible in the human world, but he can also be invincible.
However, judging from the speed of movement, the sword light has a stable spatial anchor point, so it can interact with Fang Xiao faster.
Moreover, under the Zhankong Sword Formation, the sword light is not hovering still, but is moving at high speed all the time.
It was equivalent to the moment the formation was formed. The space within the sword formation became Fang Xiao’s exclusive space, and he could reach any location at any time.
As the range of spiritual consciousness radiation continues to expand, the space covered by the sword formation will only become wider and wider, and it may even be possible to cover an entire area in the future.
Therefore, it cannot be said which one is stronger or weaker, we can only say that each has its own advantages and disadvantages.
"After getting the magical insect Liankong Gu, instead of studying it carefully, he turned around and got a bunch of wind-attribute insects. Isn't this just seeking the far-fetched goal and missing the point?"
Fang Xiao has already seen that 90% of Bai Fusheng's methods are on the wind-attributed poisonous insect, while Liankong, his natal poisonous insect, is actually only used for movement.
It is estimated that it was because the growth potential of the Liankong Gu itself was high enough that it was able to drag him to the Rongshen realm. If it had a consciousness that was not weaker than that of humans, and was being held back like this, it would have been abandoned and resurrected long ago.
"Friend Bai, you've seen it too. It's not that I can't do anything to you. I just want to get what I need as compensation. Why are you so stubborn?"
The reason why Fang Xiao didn't capture him directly was not only because he was using the Liankong Gu to verify the method of teleporting, but also because he wanted to make him lose his retreat and actively send a message to summon Luo Tianshan.
After all, no matter how many third-level Gu Masters you catch, none of them are as useful as a Gu Master at the God Fusion Realm.
Fang Xiao wanted to keep him alive in order to force Luo Tianshan to surrender. Since he couldn't search his soul, he could only let him speak himself.
Bai Fusheng now has very little energy left, and it won’t be long before he will be captured.
However, he turned a deaf ear to what Fang Xiao said and started moving again.
Fang Xiao didn't say much when he saw this, and was about to follow using the art of escaping into space, but after he perceived the fluctuations in space, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and sneered.
"You want to run? No way."
Just when Bai Fusheng was about to move away, he suddenly froze in place, and with a scream, he fell to the ground with his head in his hands.
However, Liankong Gu's witchcraft was suddenly interrupted, and both it and its host Bai Fusheng suffered backlash to varying degrees.
Such a situation was naturally Fang Xiao's masterpiece.
He already knew that in addition to short-distance teleportation, it could also teleport over longer distances, and that it was impossible to catch up with it by teleporting away into the air, so he had already prepared the Chi Nian sword technique.
It didn't take much, just one sword, and both of them, whose souls and consciousness were already partially connected after the fusion of the spirits, were severely damaged.
However, Fang Xiao was still careful when he attacked and did not let him fall into a coma.
He looked at Bai Fusheng's pale face and guessed that he would not be able to use the Liankong Gu for the time being.
He immediately flashed and appeared beside Bai Fusheng. Under his horrified gaze, he stretched out his palm and grasped it towards his dantian.
"What do you want to do, ah, Soul Devouring Insect? You are not a Gu Master, how can you activate the Gu worm?"
As the original owner of the Soul-Eating Insect, Bai Fusheng naturally recognized it directly. He was puzzled as to why Fang Xiao could activate the Gu Master, but the loss of energy in his body reminded him that all this was true.
Although the Soul Devouring Insect Device had already reached the peak of the third stage due to Fang Xiao's long-term feeding, the energy of the Spirit Fusion Realm was not something it could absorb at this stage.
This was also because Bai Fusheng had very little energy left and was unable to resist, and with the help of Fang Xiao, he was able to successfully drain it all away.
Looking at Bai Fusheng, whose body was hollowed out, Fang Xiao put away his smile and said coldly.
"I just want Guiyi Gu. Just tell me the whereabouts of Guiyi Gu. I can tell you anything you want to ask. If not for them, think about yourself. Don't force me to do it and see for yourself."
Feeling Fang Xiao's icy gaze, Bai Fusheng couldn't help but tremble. Although he didn't know what Fang Xiao meant by "see for yourself", his intuition told him that it was not a good thing.
His expression was extremely complicated and hesitant. Fang Xiao did not rush him and gave him enough time to think.
"I don't know much, but I can tell you everything. I don't expect you to let me go, but the matter of hunting down fellow Taoists has nothing to do with the younger generation. I hope you can let them go."
This person's cultivation was a mess, but he was quite responsible, which made Fang Xiao look at him differently.
"I have no interest in them at all. As for whether to release them or not, it depends on whether what you are talking about is worth the price."
He was certain that Bai Fusheng didn't know much, and that it would ultimately fall on Luo Tianshan's shoulders, but he still planned to listen and see how much he actually knew.
Life and death are in the hands of others, and he can do nothing about it.
"Forget it. It's up to you to decide whether to let him go or not."
Bai Fusheng felt that he would definitely die today, and he had no intention of begging for mercy from the other party. He tried his best and only hoped that the other party would be a magnanimous person.
