Chapter 250 Pursuit And Escape (Part One)
A few seconds after Austin left, a white figure right behind him rushed towards the cliff. He was the
Steward Meng of the Medicine Sect.
He searched everywhere all over the cliff. But he only saw dense forest, with gusts of wind blowing
through it, beasts roared on the ground and birds flew in the sky. No trace of Austin could be found
from that point on.
This cliff was located half-way up the mountain, and there were many mountain roads arranged in a
crisscross pattern: left, right, up the mountain and downhills. He had no idea which direction Austin
took.
The mountain where the Cloud Cave was situated was hidden in the hills. Mountains rose up and down
alternately in the huge green mountain range. The forests were dense and the grass growing there was
higher than the average. The area was soplex that it would really close to impossible to locate
someone there.
What''s more, Austin used his Windmanding Skill in full st, which multiplied his speed to the
max in order to escape. The pale golden vital energy gushed out from Austin''s body and wrapped
around his feet, like a small tornado circling beneath his feet. Wherever he passed by, the grasses
below him were broken off and the sand and rocks were broken apart. His every step catapulted him to
about thirty meters far. He was running so fast that he was barely seen, like a ck streak of lightning
rushing forward.
And in order to get rid of the people pursuing him, he choseplex paths in the densest parts of the
forest with dangerous terrain in order to hide his trail.
Thus, when the Steward Meng stood on the cliff, he hadpletely lost track of Austin''s whereabouts.
After a while, the disciples of the Medicine Sect went to the cliff separately, they each held iron ws in
their hands. Each iron w was tied with a rope. It was exactly the tools they had used when they
climbed the cliff.
"Steward, which way should we go?"
a disciple of the Medicine Sect, who was in rtively older, asked.
"We will scatter all over the area. Although that man is quite flexible in bodily movement, he must still
be stuck in this mountain range. You divide into four groups and chase after him in four different

directions.
If you find any traces of him, fire off the signal re to tell us immediately. He has a good cultivation
base, don''t start a fight with him impulsively on your own."
Following the instructions of the Steward Meng, the disciples of the Medicine Sect divided into four
groups and continued pursuit in four directions.
The Steward Meng scanned the dense jungle beneath the mountain again with his face flushed with
anger.
"Humph, do you honestly think that it is so easy to escape from me?"
After finishing his words, a pair of dark brown eagle wings suddenly sprung from his back with a thump
in the wind. The pair of eagle wings was strong and powerful, and the surface shed with a metallic
luster.
As soon as the eagle wings appeared, the Steward Meng sent a flow of pure vital energy force towards
his back which filled into the pair of eagle wings, making him grit his teeth.
During the fight with the three-eyed scarlet bull just now, the Steward Meng had consumed a lot of vital
energy force. Moreover, he was hit several times by the three-eyed scarlet bull, and his body was
already badly injured.
Only sixty percent of the total vital energy which he had cultivated remained. Driving the eagle wings on
his back and maintaining them during flight will consume arge amount of his vital energy. So, this
might cause a great deal of pain.
In fact, the Steward Meng should stop consuming his vital energy with his injured body. However, it was
difficult for them to find Austin in this vast mountain range. But he had no choice but to keep searching
with all his strength.
Fortunately, the man''s vital energy cultivation base was about the premium stage of Earth Realm.
There is a huge gap between the Mysterious Realm cultivator and the Earth Realm cultivator. So even
if there was only about sixty percent vital energy left in his body, Steward Meng was still confident that
he could defeat an Earth Realm cultivator. Which is why he decided to track down Austin using his
eagle wings despite of its consequences.
When the eagle wings were finally filled with vital energy, they suddenly started to p fiercely. A gust
of wind swept out of it, generating thrust, which pushed the body of the Steward Meng up in the air.
He spread the eagle wings as flew up in the sky, and then suddenly plunged to the bottom of the
mountain like a big white bird.
The Steward Meng was a Mysterious Realm cultivator whose spiritual sense had already awakened. If
he released his spiritual sense, it could cover about 200 meters around him.
And now, his spiritual sense is connected to the ground below him. If anything were to happen there,
he would surely sense it immediately.
In the dense forest, Austin was shooting flexibly between trees, leaving behind a streak of ck
shadow, and his bodily movement was as quiet as a ghost.
"With this speed, I guess I can get rid of the Steward Meng''s radar. Although he is a Mysterious Realm
cultivator, he seems to have been injured by that beast, and my bodily movement skill is much better
than his."
Austin was quite confident with his Windmanding Skill, and he thought he had already outrun
them.
As the distance between he and the Cloud Cave became farther and farther, Austin started to rx and
his vignce gradually subsided.
His trip to the Cloud Cave was definitely fruitful. The most precious gifts among them were undoubtedly
these powerful crystals and the vital energy given to him by the Great Sage Cloud.
Moreover, he also obtained a batch of elixirs, secret books and, most importantly, a herbal pot.
While he was calcting his trophies, he suddenly felt a cold tingling at the back of his head. He had
no idea what it was. But it was a sense of danger nearby, simr to when a prey had suddenly realized
that the hunter had found him.
''Damn it! Has the Steward Meng already sensed my location?''
Austin suddenly deployed his spiritual sense behind him. Everything within 400 meters of the ground
could be perceived by his mind.
No one there.
Only some inferior animals and birds inhabited the dense forest behind them. The whole area was
silent as well.
However, this feeling of being stared at was getting stronger and stronger, as if a pair of eyes seemed
to be watching him closely.
Over the dense forest, the Steward Meng''s figure was like an arrow shooting through the clouds. The
pair of wings came from a mutant diabolic eagle which was powerful and almost as fast as the true
golden eagle when it flew in the sky.
The Steward Meng had been swirling around the dense forest and was able to cover a great area
around the Cloud Cave peak in just a short amount of time.
