Everyone looked at Bai Chen and Yan Le with an extremely obscure expression. They didn't even feel the need to retreat.

Even though the people in the caravan respected this high-level Spirit Master, that was only under normal circumstances. Right now, Yan Le and Bai Chen were covered in medicinal powder, and with the smell of the powder, it wouldn't be long before that Spirit Sect magical beast caught up.

If he stood together with Bai Chen now, that would be courting death!

At a time like this where his life was in danger, who would care about such things? When the people from the merchant caravan saw Bai Chen and Yan Le, it was as if they had seen a plague god with a virus.

He only felt a little self-deprecating in his heart, before turning to Bai Chen and said, "Brother Bai Chen, since we're being targeted, we won't burden everyone. Are you willing to follow me?"

"Of course!"

Bai Chen nodded without any hesitation.

They did not blame anyone else, after all, they were not the ones who deserved death. If the rest of the people in the caravan were covered in this powder, Yan Le would also keep his distance from them.

After all, this wasn't something to be trifled with. If that Spirit Sect magical beast chased after them, they could easily kill the entire group in an instant.

As Yan Le spoke, he turned around and left without stopping. Bai Chen put the Three Colored Snow Lotus Grass back into the wooden box, put it away, then quickly followed behind him.

The two of them separated from the caravan and ran out of the mountain range. The mountain range was the territory of the magical beasts, not to mention the fact that Bai Chen and the others were covered in medicinal powder, making them two living rakes.

It was obviously impossible for them to deal with that Spirit Sect magical beast. The only thing they could do now was to use their fastest speed to run out of the mountain range.

"Roar!"

An enormous beast roar came from the forest behind them. From the sound of it, it seemed that the Spirit Sect magical beast had already caught up to them.

Bai Chen and Bai Chen were running with all their might in the direction of the mountain range. Bai Chen was running in front, and Yan Lai was following close behind.

Although Bai Chen looked like a high level Spirit Apostle, he was, after all, someone who had already reached the Spirit Sect's realm. Plus, he was a Body Cultivator, otherwise, his body's explosive power would be extremely powerful.

After running continuously for over an hour, Yan Le was finally exhausted. Fortunately, he didn't run anymore. He directly bent over and stopped, panting heavily. He had an extremely tired appearance.

"Big Brother Yan, now is not the time to rest. If this continues, the Spiritual school's Magic Beasts might catch up!"

Seeing that Yan Le had stopped, Bai Chen hurriedly said. While he was speaking, he did not forget to look towards the forest behind him, as if he was afraid that the magical beast would jump out.

"I can't do it anymore. Little brother, you are a body practitioner so run away quickly. You don't need to worry about me. If I stay here and help you stall for magical beasts, I can at least buy you some time!"

Yan Le panted as he spoke. He did not want to die either, but the situation was pressing and he had no other choice.

Although Yan Le knew that he wasn't a match for the Magic Beasts of the Spirit Sect, he could still delay a Spirit Sect Magic Beast for a while with his strength. With two people dying together, Yan Le chose to sacrifice himself to help Bai Chen.

"Big Brother Yan, I, Bai Chen, only have you as my friend in this world. I can't leave you behind!"

Bai Chen said to Yan Le, his eyes filled with determination.

Yes, just as Bai Chen had said, he was the only friend he had in this world. Although they hadn't known each other for long, Yan Le's straightforwardness and righteousness moved Bai Chen. He could be ruthless when dealing with his enemy, Bai Chen.

"Alright, it's worth it for me to have a brother like you in my lifetime!" Yan Le said with a smile.

However, Bai Chen did not have the time to slowly establish a relationship with Yan Le. Although Bai Chen's strength was only that of a Spirit Apostle, his Spiritual Awareness had already reached the genuine level of a Spiritual school. He could already feel the powerful aura coming from behind him.

The Spiritual school's magical beast was getting closer and closer. It seemed as if it could appear in front of the two of them at any time.

Bai Chen knew that it would be useless if he were to continue running. He anxiously looked around. At this moment, a few hundred meters in front of him, a cave appeared.

The cave in front of them was very small, just large enough for the two of them. When Bai Chen saw the cave, his pupils constricted.

"Big Brother Yan, come quickly. Let's hide in that cave!"

As he spoke, Bai Chen helped Yan Le up, and the two of them ran towards the cave.

"Roar!"

Almost at the same time, just as Bai Chen and Zhou Weiqing started running, they saw a leopard type magical beast with black fur jump out from the forest behind them.

"Roar!" An enormous beast howled out from the magical beast's mouth. The roar was so loud that Bai Chen and the other two felt their eardrums hurt.

The Spirit Sect magical beast caught up to him, and with a pair of scarlet eyes, he saw Bai Chen and Yan Le. The magical beast chased after them.

At this moment, it would be a lie to say that he wasn't afraid. After Bai Chen saw the Spiritual school's magical beast appear, he carried Yan Le on his back and ran towards the cave at his fastest speed.

Bai Chen and Liu Ming were less than two hundred meters away from the magical beast and about the same distance from the cave. In this kind of life or death situation, Bai Chen's body was brimming with a strong power. Even though he was carrying Yan Le, his speed was even faster than when he was running around alone.

Bai Chen increased his wind speed to its limit and the Spirit Sect rank Magic Beast behind him followed closely. Moreover, the distance between them continued to close.

Seeing that the magical beast was getting closer and closer to the cave, Bai Chen's eyes suddenly flashed.

He adjusted all the spiritual energy in his body to gather at his feet and saw Bai Chen leap forward with all his might.

"Swoosh!"

Bai Chen's body was like an arrow that had just left the bowstring. He jumped into the air, carrying Yan Le as he fell down towards the cave.

Because the force was too ferocious, coupled with the fact that he was carrying Yan Le, it was easy for him to jump. However, it was difficult for him to land, so Bai Chen was unable to control his body while he was in the air.

Falling to the ground from a height of a few meters, even a body practitioner like Bai Chen felt an intense pain from this kind of fall. He felt that his waist was about to break, but the two of them did not have the mind to care about that at the moment. After falling down, they immediately got up from the ground and hid within the cave.

The timing was perfect. After the two of them entered the cave, the Spiritual school's magical beast also caught up.

This cave was very small, just large enough to accommodate Bai Chen and Gu Li. The demonic beast had chased them outside, but because the cave entrance was too small, it couldn't enter.

"Phew ?"

After hiding in the cave, Bai Chen let out a long breath, cold sweat beading on his forehead and back.

If they had been even a second late and had been bitten by a magical beast, the result would have been completely different from what it was now.

"Bro, thank you very much. I, Yan Le, owe you my life!" After relaxing, Yan Le smiled at Bai Chen.

Bai Chen also smiled. Just as he was about to say something, a dull sound of something colliding rang out, causing the cave to shake slightly from the impact.

Bai Chen and Bai Chen, who had just calmed down, didn't even have the time to enjoy themselves before they immediately tensed up again. The two of them hurriedly looked towards the outside of the cave.

He saw that the Spirit Sect magical beast was using its strong body to ram into the cave. Every time the magical beast collided, the entire cave would shake and pieces of stone would fall from the ceiling.

"Not good, it seems like this beast is really anxious. If he were to be knocked into this cave, I'm afraid that he won't be able to hold on for long!" Yan Le said with a solemn expression.

Although these words were somewhat unpleasant to hear, this was indeed the case. That Magical Beast possessed the strength of a Spirit Sect and would not last long before being smashed into a small cave like this. At that time, the two of them would truly have no way out.

"What should I do!?"

Not only him, Bai Chen was also very anxious at this moment. This cave was only this big, and there was no other exit connected at the back. If that magical beast really did break open the cave entrance and enter, both Bai Chen and Bai Chen would be like turtles in a jar, waiting to be slaughtered.

Bai Chen quickly stood up from the ground. In that instant, he had thought of many different methods, but they were all discarded in the end. In this situation, no matter what he did, they were all useless.

He had just started cultivating, and he already encountered such a life and death crisis. Was the God really joking with him?

He had endured in the Bai Clan for so many years, finally being able to start cultivating with great difficulty. He still wanted to find his mother one day, and make sure that everyone who gave him face would look good, but he didn't expect that he would encounter such a situation before he even had the time to do so.

All of a sudden, a thought flashed through Bai Chen's mind. He suddenly thought of the Echelon Tower in his body, and remembered how he had swallowed the Ink Lotus.

The reason why he was able to step onto the path of cultivation was because he had swallowed the entire Pill Demon Lotus last time. The great spiritual energy within the pill had been absorbed by the Echelon, and then he had opened the first level.

Bai Chen recalled these things and took out the wooden box containing the Three Colored Snow Lotus Grass from his bosom.

Bai Chen's eyes were glued to the wooden box. There was a hint of nervousness and unwillingness in his eyes. Of course, most of them were filled with determination!

Did he have to go through that again?
