Chapter 302: The Crazy Patriarch of the Crafty Formation (1)

The speed brought about by the Blood Escape Bead was extremely shocking. Especially after Xiao Shi injected a large amount of Intrinsic Martial Blood, the speed erupted by the Blood Escape Bead had already reached the limit of the Blood Martial Realm and was extremely close to the Martial Soul Realm.
But even so, compared to the Patriarch of the Crafty Formation, he was still a little slow. Xiao Shi, who had transformed into a blood beam, flickered in Blazing Yin City at an extremely fast speed.
However, the distance between the Patriarch of the Crafty Formation chasing after him was constantly closing.
As the City Lord’s butler, Lord Mo watched this scene indifferently. He had no intention of helping. Although he admired Xiao Shi very much, he only admired him. It was impossible for him to attack because of this. To them, who only cared about benefits, they would not do anything without benefits.
On the contrary, if the Patriarch of the Crafty Formation killed Xiao Shi, he could extort a sum from him.
Xiao Shi, who was fleeing at full speed, could clearly feel the Patriarch of the Crafty Formation behind him approaching even without looking back. He was very calm and did not panic at all.
“It’s about time.” Xiao Shi lowered his head. He looked at the array formation that filled the ground of Blazing Yin City. In fact, after he used the Blood Eye Foundation Seizing Pill to plunder Ke Zhuozheng’s foundation, aptitude, and comprehension, countless memories of Ke Zhuozheng’s years of research and comprehension of array formations surged into his mind.
A vast amount of comprehension and understanding of array formations fused into his memories and became a part of them. Because there was too much information, it was too complicated. As a result, it took him some time to organize this information.
Although he had yet to understand it in depth, his attainments in array formations had already advanced by leaps and bounds. He was no longer the same as before. When he looked down at the array formation below, the array formation was already very different from before.
Xiao Shi’s eyes flashed. He raised his hand and pressed down hard on the ground. An array formation formed out of thin air behind Xiao Shi. The figure of the Patriarch of the Crafty Formation Clan came out of the array formation. His eyes were red and filled with anger. The violent killing intent made his white hair flutter even though there was no wind.
“Die!!” He instantly attacked. He threw a palm at Xiao Shi.
However, just as he was about to touch Xiao Shi, the blood light that Xiao Shi had transformed into suddenly increased its speed by several times from its original foundation.
It flashed by. It caused the Patriarch of the Crafty Formation to miss. The patriarch frowned deeply. He discovered that the blood light that Xiao Shi had transformed into was actually filled with dark black flames. He instantly realized that Xiao Shi had used the Yin Flame Array in Blazing Yin City to increase his speed.
Originally, with Xiao Shi’s authority, it was impossible to do this. However, with his improvement in array formations, he directly understood the use of many array formations. He immediately increased his speed through the Yin Flame Array in Blazing Yin City.
“Unfortunately, I’m still unable to crack the array formation and obtain more authority.” Xiao Shi felt regretful. If he could crack the array formation like Ke Zhuozheng and obtain more authority over the array formation, he could bring about a greater enhancement through the Yin Flame Array in Blazing Yin City.
However, to do this, he needed to gain some in-depth understanding. And he clearly did not have the time now.
The array he was using now was a way to consume the remnant Yin in his body and increase his speed. Although this method could increase his speed by a lot, the remnant yin in his body would continuously be consumed and decrease.
Once the remnant yin was exhausted, he would no longer be able to obtain the speed increase brought about by the array formation.
However, Xiao Shi thought that he should be able to escape from the Patriarch of the Crafty Formation before the remnant Yin in his body was exhausted. A bold thought even surfaced in his mind.
Thinking of this, Xiao Shi, who was originally escaping to the Flame Bearer Division at an extremely fast speed, suddenly turned around.
The patriarch, who was chasing behind Xiao Shi, immediately sensed that there was a change in the direction Xiao Shi was escaping in. He thought of Xiao Shi’s bold action of daring to go to the mansion of the Crafty Formation Clan to kill someone under his pursuit.
The patriarch immediately had a terrifying guess. “Don’t tell me he’s going to… Damn it!!” This guess made the Patriarch of the Crafty Formation instantly anxious. He quickly chased after him at an even faster speed.
With the enhancement of the Yin Flame Array, Xiao Shi’s speed had already reached a level that ordinary Blood Martial Realm experts could not withstand. As a result, during the process of impact, his body was filled with cracks. Even the Intrinsic Martial Blood in his body was cracked. If he continued to maintain this speed, his body would not be able to withstand it and disintegrate on its own without the Patriarch of the Crafty Formation.
“I don’t have much time.” Xiao Shi silently calculated the time. He estimated that he could only last for ten breaths at this speed. Once it exceeded ten breaths, his body and the intrinsic martial blood in his body would all shatter.
Under his rapid charge, Xiao Shi had already seen the target in front of him.
It was Ke Zhuozheng!
In the previous situation, Xiao Shi could not kill her. After all, he needed some time to escape. If he had killed Ke Zhuozheng at that time, the Patriarch of the Crafty Formation would definitely have chased after him..
