nTang Li Xue gnashed her teeth in dejection, but she has no other choice than to do this.

nThe protective formation around the camp of the Five Virtuous Sect's core disciple teams acted as confinement for Tang Li Xue instead right now, and it was created by the Oracle Mountain Sect's core disciples.

nShe could not get out from the protective formation unless the Oracle Mountain Sect's core disciples removed it tomorrow morning.

nThen why Tang Li Xue did not use Shadow Flash to teleport out from the protective formation again just like how she teleported into Meng Ying's tent?

nIt was not that she did not want to do it but because she could not do it.

nTang Li Xue's Spirit Perception and vision could not sense or see too far because of the white fog, so she did not dare to teleport blindly using Shadow Flash because it was too risky.

nThat was also the reason why Tang Li Xue told her perfect copy to teleport into Meng Ying's tent instead of doing it herself since her perfect copy would not die anyway if something untoward happened when she teleported... like if she stuck in the wall or tree after teleport...

nTang Li Xue's perfect copy used the tracker from Mapping Sense as her pointer to teleport into Meng Ying's tent, and the real Tang Li Xue could also use her perfect copy as a pointer to teleport out from the protective formation using Shadow Flash, but again… the risk for doing that was too high. What if her body stuck in the tree or bushes after she teleported?!

nSo, Tang Li Xue decided to abandon her dying perfect copy instead by using Swap skill to switch her location with her dying perfect copy.

nIt was really unfortunate since if Tang Li Xue's perfect copy only got seriously injured and did not get frozen and went into a coma, the real Tang Li Xue could easily use Shadow Flash to teleport out from the formation since her perfect copy could still see and sense everything around herself very clearly.

n

nTang Li Xue took the sleeping Little Loki into her embrace and sprinted as fast as she could toward the direction of the peak of Cang Yang Mountain.

nActually, Tang Li Xue already took out her white Wind Riding Bird and tried to ride it to the peak of Cang Yang Mountain, but it seems her white Wind Riding Bird was greatly weakened in this Cang Yang Mountain.

nTang Li Xue's white Wind Riding Bird could not even fly at all or move too far before it exhausted after Tang Li Xue rode on it.

nTang Li Xue deduced that the prohibition area set on this Cang Yang Mountain did not only affect her but would also affect all of the beasts.

nIn short, all of the beasts that entered Cang Yang Mountain would be greatly weakened. That was the reason why there was almost no beast dared to enter climb Cang Yang Mountain.

nNow, Tang Li Xue understood why Instructor Mei Lan said that only Tan Li Xue could enter Inheritance Ground Tablet.

n'Wait a minute… what if I try to ride on my Golden Winged Serpent to Cang Yang Mountain's peak?!' Tang Li Xue thought as she tried to summon out her martial soul, Golden Winged Serpent.

nUnfortunately, she found out that she also could not summon out her martial soul, Golden Winged Serpent, in this Cang Yang Mountain.

n'Damn it! So, this is the reason why I never see anyone summon out their martial soul after we entered Cang Yang Mountain until now. It is because no one can summon out their martial soul here! So, everyone can only purely rely on their martial arts to fight here!' Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth in annoyance.

n

n'Thankfully, I managed to snatch this Meng Ying right in front of those core disciples from White Crane Sect as insurance. Even if those core disciples from Five Virtuous Sect managed to catch up with me, I can use this fake Snow Fairy as a hostage.' Tang Li Xue thought as she felt a bit reassured.

nAfter considered it for a few moments while kept sprinting toward the peak of Cang Yang Mountain, Tang Li Xue finally decided to active Merge skill rather than have her perfect copy got killed by the young girls from White Crane Sect.

nMerge: Merge the perfect copy with the user's body. Doubled the user's overall stats for 1 hour! (The copy needs to be sacrificed to activate this ability.)

nTang Li Xue's perfect copy that got left in the camp of White Crane Sect's core disciples suddenly vanished in that instant, while the real Tang Li Xue felt that her overall stats doubled in an instant.

nThe camp of White Crane Sect's core disciples already turned chaotic in panic and confusion when Tang Li Xue, who disguised as Meng Ying, suddenly vanished and replaced by her frozen perfect copy, but the situation became even more chaotic when the frozen perfect copy suddenly vanished too right in front of their eyes right now.

nHowever, the chaotic situation only lasted for a few minutes or so before the young girls from White Crane Sect calmed down, and they immediately decided to quickly notify the core disciples from the other Virtuous Sect about this incident.

nOnly the most elite core disciples of the Five Virtuous Sect came into Cang Yang Mountain to enter Inheritance Ground Tablet, so they could immediately deduce what happened quite accurately and decided to chase after Tang Li Xue.

nAs for how they could know where Tang Li Xue was heading to right now, it was because they have some way to detect the location of Meng Ying that was held by Tang Li Xue.

nTang Li Xue already sprinted as fast as she could toward the peak of Cang Yang Mountain, and after she merged with her perfect copy, her current running speed was twice faster than her usual speed, but the core disciples' teams from the Five Virtuous Sect could still slowly catch up to her using their own means.

n

nAfter one hour, the effect from Merge skill finally faded away and Tang Li Xue's speed decreased back to usual.

nWithout the effect of Merge skill, the core disciples' teams from the Five Virtuous Sect could chase after Tang Li Xue much quicker than before, and it only took them ten to fifteen minutes for them to see Tang Li Xue's back.

n'They catch up really quick! Sigh… I only have less than 2 hours left to reach the peak of Cang Yang Mountain. I hope I can really reach there before the time is up.' Tang Li Xue prayed in her heart.

nTang Li Xue turned her head around and frowned deeply when she saw the core disciples' teams from the Five Virtuous Sect got closer and closer to her from behind.

nShe did not hesitate to use Talisman of Lightning Speed 3 and Talisman of Wind Step 3 on herself to further increase her speed.

nOne of the core disciples from Immortal Sword Sect immediately recognized Tang Li Xue when he saw Tang Li Xue turned her head around and exclaimed in surprise:

"That girl in fox mask seems familiar… Eh, wait a minute… Isn't that Young Miss Xiao?

"

nYe Zhen, who was running at the very front of the team, also immediately recognized Tang Li Xue, and he currently hesitated on what to do.

n

"Senior Brother Ye, what should we do? Should we really help the girls from White Crane Sect to catch Young Miss Xiao?

" The other core disciples of Immortal Sword Sect asked Ye Zhen.

nAll cultivators would have sharper senses, the higher cultivation they have. So, some core disciples of the White Crane Sect could still faintly hear the conversation between the core disciples of the Immortal Sword Sect, even though they were already talking with an almost audible voice.

n

nOne of the young girls from the White Crane Sect increased her speed to approach the core disciples of the Immortal Sword Sect and asked them with a suspicious tone:

"What do you all say? Is that fox masked girl your acquaintance?

"

nThe core disciples of Immortal Sword Sect opened their mouths to reply but hesitated on what to say.

nLuckily, Ye Zhen quickly glanced at them and gave a signal for them to shut up.

nYe Zhen smiled at the young girls from the White Crane Sect and replied:

"No, we do not know her, but she is a bit similar to one of our friends that like to wear a fox mask to cover her face.

"

nThe core disciples from the White Crane Sect still glared at Ye Zhen and the other core disciples of Immortal Sword Sect with suspicion and doubt.

nBut they did not have any free time to argue with Ye Zhen and the other core disciples of the Immortal Sword Sect at this crucial time since they almost caught up to Tang Li Xue, so they could only choose to stop interrogating Ye Zhen and the other core disciples of the Immortal Sword Sect right now.

nWhen the young girls from the White Crane Sect chose to focus on chasing after Tang Li Xue again, the other core disciples of the Immortal Sword Sect secretly glanced at Ye Zhen to ask for his further instruction.

nThe other core disciples of the Immortal Sword Sect immediately realized that Ye Zhen slowly decreased his speed to look as if he began to get exhausted. They instantly understood and imitated Ye Zhen too.

nThe ancient jade emblems that Tang Li Xue stole were not theirs anyway, and Meng Ying was also not their people, so the core disciples of the Immortal Sword Sect decided to not help the young girls from the White Crane Sect to catch Tang Li Xue.

n

nBut of course, they could not blatantly help Tang Li Xue since they carried the name of Immortal Sword Sect with them too. It would tarnish their sect's name if the core disciples from the other Virtuous Sect spread the words that the core disciples of Immortal Sword Sect deliberately sent a person to steal the ancient jade emblems from them.

nIn short, they could only help Tang Li Xue to this extend.

nMeanwhile, the core disciples from the White Crane Sect and Oracle Mountain Sect already started to assault Tang Li Xue from behind with their ranged attacks!
