Chapter 2251: A Glimmer of Hope!

Ye Yuan did not respond; his mind was racing.

It seemed he had underestimated the determination of these two Celestial Realm experts regarding the无极弑神弓.

The allure of a Dao artifact was too great!

Men die for wealth, birds die for food.

Jiang Ci had nearly lost his life in his quest for the无极弑神弓.

And these two Celestial Realm experts clearly would not let go so easily.

Shui Yuan and Gu Hun must have found a tracking expert, and this tracker is highly skilled in formations! Since they invited him, he must also be a Celestial Realm expert!” Ye Yuan analyzed.

The two Celestial Realm experts, Shui Yuan and Gu Hun, were extremely renowned; Jiang Ci could not have been unaware of them.

Ye Yuan had learned their names from him.

Jiang Ci’s expression changed, and he said despairingly, “That must be the Heavenly Eye Celestial Emperor! His heavenly eye can see through all illusions and even perform time reversal! Young friend Ye, leave me behind and flee alone!”

Ye Yuan gave a wry smile and said, “Too late! Even if I hand over the无极弑神弓, would they let me go? I thought I had covered my tracks perfectly, but I never expected there to be a divine ability like the Heavenly Eye Celestial Emperor’s. It seems I underestimated Celestial Realm experts!”

Jiang Ci sighed, knowing Ye Yuan was right.

Ye Yuan had already waded into troubled waters and would find it hard to extricate himself.

Even if he handed over the无极弑神弓, these Celestial Realm experts would never let him go.

As for himself, he was now nothing but a cripple.

“Young friend Ye, I have implicated you!” Jiang Ci sighed.

Even though he was an old monster who had lived for countless years, he felt grateful to Ye Yuan.

Anyone else would have killed him and taken the treasure long ago.

Ye Yuan not only did not take the Wuji God-Slaying Bow, but he even healed all of his injuries.

He had also gone from being wary at the beginning to now being overwhelmed with gratitude.

It's just a pity...

"Senior Jiang Ci, do you know of any place with extremely powerful prohibitions that even Heaven-Man realm experts are extremely wary of?" Ye Yuan suddenly asked.

"Prohibitions?" Jiang Ci was taken aback.

"Exactly! That is our only way out!" Ye Yuan said solemnly.

Fleeing all the way, Ye Yuan had considered all his trump cards; only in the way of formations did he have a chance of survival!

These three were all Heaven-Man realm experts, their strength far surpassing that of Yuan Jiu.

Even if he took them into the Chaos World, Ye Yuan would have no chance of winning.

As for time freezing, with his current strength, its interference on Heaven-Man realm experts was negligible.

The only remaining path was the way of formations!

Jiang Ci was an old monster who had lived for billions of years; his understanding of the Tongtian Realm was certainly much greater than his own, hence he asked this question.

Jiang Ci's expression turned strange as he said, "Prohibitions that make Heaven-Man realm experts wary are death traps for us!"

Ye Yuan said solemnly, "Do you want to die or live?"

Jiang Ci said, "Of course I want to live!"

Ye Yuan said, "If you want to live, then stop talking nonsense! Is there such a place?"

Jiang Ci said, "If we're talking about prohibitions so powerful that even Heaven-Man realm experts fear them, then there's only... Mount Bakong!"

Ye Yuan had clearly never heard of this name, and said, "Mount Bakong?"

Jiang Ci said, "The Bakong Mountain Range lies at the border between the Middle Realm and the Western Realm, serving as the boundary between the two realms, stretching for billions of miles! And on its main peak, Mount Bakong, there are powerful prohibitions everywhere. Legend has it that the prohibitions on Mount Bakong were set up overnight by an ancient great power, and they have killed countless experts. The prohibitions there stretch for eighty million miles, vast and immense! However, there are indeed many great opportunities there, and many people risk danger to seek fortune there, even some Heaven-Man realm experts. And many Heaven-Man realm experts have died there."

Ye Yuan was also extremely shocked upon hearing this.

An enormous禁制 stretching eighty million li, appearing overnight—it was simply unimaginable.

What kind of grandmaster of formations could possibly set it up!

Ye Yuan's current formation dao strength was definitely at the grandmaster level.

Yet if he were to set up an eighty-thousand-li禁制 overnight, he would find it extremely difficult.

This was a gap in level!

Ye Yuan's gaze sharpened. "Alright, let's go there! You lead the way!"

The Senluo Ghost Domain was in the southwest; as long as they kept flying northeast, they would reach the Eight Emptiness Mountain.

Both sides chased and fled, their speeds reaching the extreme.

However, the distance between them was gradually shrinking.

In just half a day, it had narrowed from the initial million li to only five hundred thousand li.

At this rate, in another half day, the three Celestial Being realm experts would catch up.

"Kid, keep running! This Emperor wants to see how far you can go!" From behind came Shui Yuan's triumphant laughter.

With the power of the Celestial Being realm, projecting one's voice with divine essence over hundreds of thousands of li was not difficult.

Tian Yan was relatively calm, but Shui Yuan and Gu Hun were both seething with anger.

The two of them had fought fiercely over the无极弑神弓, turning the sky dark and the earth dim.

But who would have thought that when the snipe and the clam grappled, the fisherman would benefit—in the end, a reckless Jiang Ci snatched it away.

However, just as they were about to catch Jiang Ci, Ye Yuan rescued him.

With no other choice, the two paid a heavy price to invite Celestial Being Tian Yan to act.

The whole affair had been full of twists and turns, and now that they had finally found the real culprit, their fury was understandable.

The two of them now wished they could tear Ye Yuan apart alive.

Ye Yuan was completely unfazed, still pushing his speed to the limit.

Jiang Ci, however, frowned deeply. "This won't do. At this rate, we won't make it to the Eight Emptiness Mountain!"

Ye Yuan asked, "Is there any place ahead where space is irregular?"

Jiang Ci's eyes lit up. "Yes! Head north. With your pace, we'll get there in half a day at most!"

Without a word, Ye Yuan immediately turned and headed north.

Jiang Ci was secretly astonished. He found that Ye Yuan's mind was incredibly resilient.

Under such immense pressure, he could still remain so calm—it was hardly befitting a young man.

Having lived for eons, Jiang Ci felt he himself lacked Ye Yuan's composure.

Now both sides were on flat terrain, with no spatial fluctuations whatsoever.

Thus, even if Ye Yuan pushed his speed to the extreme, he still couldn't shake off the three.

But once they entered irregular space, Ye Yuan's spatial laws could be brought into full play.

In irregular space, Ye Yuan's speed would also be affected, but the impact on the other three would be even greater!

In this way, the advantage of Ye Yuan's spatial laws would be amplified, allowing him to shake them off.

Originally, this idea should have occurred to an old monster like himself, but he had already lost his calm.

In an environment where hope seemed utterly absent, those who could remain calm were truly rare.

Yet Ye Yuan was completely unaffected.

From the moment he discovered the three, Ye Yuan's mind had not wavered in the slightest; he was as calm as a cold machine!

How did this kid manage it?
