Chapter 970: Chapter 970: The True Cultivation of Xue Qing
"Heaven and Earth, vanish into invisibility, fall!"
Ruyu quickly took out a formation flag given to her by Lin Chen, found a hidden spot, and while reciting the spell, she threw out the formation flags one by one, arranging them into a Concealment Array.
Buzz—
With the establishment of the Concealment Array, an invisible barrier formed around Ruyu’s location, enveloping her completely, making her form and aura utterly disappear from this space, as if she had become invisible.
Even if someone walked up to her face, they couldn’t see or sense her.
This type of Concealment Array was extremely advanced, and with the existing restrictions in the Grey Marsh Plain that inherently isolated the Divine Soul, the array Ruyu set up here could exert its utmost effect.
However, just as Ruyu had finished setting up the Concealment Array, a figure swiftly pursued her.
This person was Xue Qing, who had been tracking Ruyu by her aura.
At this moment, Xue Qing was less than a hundred yards away from Ruyu. Although the Divine Soul could not sense her, his eyes could still see.
Ruyu, seeing Xue Qing, was so frightened that she collapsed on the ground, instinctively covering her mouth.
She suddenly remembered that she had set up a Concealment Array around her, using herself as the Formation Eye, Xue Qing was supposed to be unable to see her.
Even so, her heart was still filled with terror, knowing that although her cultivation strength was considered good in the Divine Flame Alliance, it was still far inferior to Xue Qing.
Ruyu knew well that she could not withstand even five moves from Xue Qing.
If captured, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Damn, her aura disappears here, does she have more earth-escape methods?"
After tracing Ruyu’s location, confusion appeared on Xue Qing’s face because Ruyu’s aura had vanished.
Glancing around, Xue Qing’s expression grew ugly as he was unable to find Ruyu’s aura no matter how he searched.
However, Xue Qing did not know that while he was searching around for her aura, Ruyu’s heart had nearly stopped beating.
"It seems that woman really has escaped from here, damn it."
Muttering under his breath, Xue Qing unwillingly searched around again, and after confirming the absence of Ruyu’s aura, he finally left.
Watching Xue Qing leave, Ruyu hurriedly released her small hand covering her mouth, beginning to gasp for air, her heart pounding violently.
Ruyu had been nearly scared to death just now, and she felt an inward tremor of aftershock.
She originally thought she could escape using the Qiankun Escape Talisman the moment Xue Qing spotted her, but Xue Qing had still caught up to her.
This time, if it weren’t for Lin Chen’s Qiankun Escape Talisman and the Concealment Array, her fate would have been unthinkable.
Ruyu secretly decided that throughout the month of this competition in the Secret Realm, she would always hide within this Concealment Array.
Even if the sky fell outside, she wouldn’t go out to take a look.
After all, this competition was about who could survive until the end.
Ruyu had decided to lie low by hiding within the Concealment Array given by Lin Chen.
Though this means she couldn’t aid other members of the Divine Flame Alliance, at least she preserved her own life, which could also be considered a contribution to the Alliance.
Whoosh—
However, just as Ruyu had resolved to do so, suddenly, a figure flashed again, appearing about thirty yards in front of her, causing Ruyu’s breath to stop once more, daring not to make any sound.
"It seems that the woman has indeed escaped from here."
Xue Qing said indifferently, then without turning his head, he left.
Apparently, he had returned thinking Ruyu might have hidden somewhere here, intending to reveal herself once he left. Now, he came back, and if his guess was right, he could have caught her.
However, aside from himself, there was no one else around, so Xue Qing thought he was wrong.
Yet, Xue Qing did not know, his guess was not mistaken, Ruyu was indeed here, less than a hundred yards from him, but he was unable to see or sense her.
"Sly guy, thankfully I didn’t plan to go out just now, otherwise I would surely have been captured by him right now."
Ruyu watched Xue Qing leaving again, muttering under her breath.
This further solidified Ruyu’s decision to stay in the Concealment Array.
After Xue Qing left, he immediately began searching for members of the Divine Flame Alliance around the area.
His speed was incredibly fast, seemingly unafraid of the powerful Magical Beasts and poisonous insects present in the Grey Marsh Plain.
No one knew, the reason Xue Qing was so fast and fearless of the surrounding dangers was that he had mastered a method that significantly enhanced his sensory abilities.
Although the Divine Soul was restricted in the plain, this method allowed him to clearly perceive the situation within a hundred miles.
While this method couldn’t be used continuously, using it occasionally to sense nearby conditions gave Xue Qing a clear idea of his surroundings.
For Xue Qing, Red Soul Hall’s ancestors had instructed them that this operation in the Grey Marsh Plain was targeted against Lin Chen; they must not let anyone escape the plain alive.
For Xue Qing, it wasn’t only Lin Chen; he intended to take down all of Divine Flame Alliance’s ten Heavenly Prides.
After all, Xue Qing’s cultivation had already reached the Half-step to Creation Realm level, but he intentionally suppressed his cultivation for this competition, only elevating it to the Half-step to Creation Realm after entering Grey Marsh Plain, using the plain’s restrictions to mask his aura.
The power difference between a warrior at Half-step to Creation Realm and a regular one at Nirvana Realm Ninth Layer was vast, like heaven and earth.
Xue Qing had refrained from advancing, waiting for this moment.
If he had advanced earlier, the members of the Divine Flame Alliance, not being fools, knowing that their opponent’s strength was equivalent to Half-step to Creation Realm, might have refused this competition.
But now, they had no choice.
Xue Qing’s first act upon entering Grey Marsh Plain was to break through his cultivation, only achieving the breakthrough on the fourth day and then beginning his hunting journey.
