Coldness appeared in Tobias Singleton’s eyes as he thought, "This kid is definitely going to die."
The previous attack had already pushed the kid to his limits, and he had only barely managed to fend it off by damaging a magical treasure. My current attack is even more powerful than the last, so it’s impossible for him to withstand it.
Spirit Light flashed beneath Carson Flores’ feet, and as he stepped forward, his figure suddenly vanished from its original spot, as if shattering the void. When he reappeared, he was already hundreds of meters away.
The silver light hit the ground.
The ground instantly split open, and everything in the area was shattered into dust, with soil splattering everywhere. In the blink of an eye, a bowl-shaped crater hundreds of meters deep formed.
Tobias Singleton glanced toward Carson Flores, who was now a few hundred meters away, and an astonished expression appeared on his face. It was quickly replaced by a fervent glow in his eyes.
Ground Shrinking Technique!
Even though Tobias Singleton had never seen the Ground Shrinking Technique before, within just a second, he was sure that Carson Flores had used the Great Secret Technique known throughout the Barbaric Wilderness Realm—the Ground Shrinking Technique!
In a single step, one could traverse mountains and seas!
Tobias Singleton beckoned, calling back the Silver Flood Dragon Scissors, and he swiftly flew toward the location of Carson Flores.
I must capture Carson Flores!
The lad bears secrets, at the very least the knowledge of the Ground Shrinking Technique, a Great Secret Technique. How could I possibly miss such an opportunity?
Tobias Singleton was suddenly grateful to Bryant James. If he had known that Carson Flores possessed such a Great Secret Technique, he would have come to kill Carson himself and would never have allowed me this opportunity!
Tobias Singleton’s figure accelerated to its extreme, turning him into a streak of light.
Carson Flores took a step forward and, looking back at the devastated ground, felt cold sweat on his back.
Carson dared not hesitate for a moment and took another step forward, instantly moving several hundred meters further.
Continually employing the Ground Shrinking Technique, Carson turned into a blur on the ground. One moment he was a kilometer away, and in the blink of an eye, he had already run several kilometers, much faster than a Flying Boat.
Tobias Singleton pursued Carson relentlessly. Although he was fast, he was still slowly being left behind by Carson, gradually losing sight of him.
But Tobias Singleton wasn’t worried; he had means of approximately locking onto Carson’s location.
He didn’t fear losing him.
The nearest city was still quite a distance away. Since you can’t shake me off, your death is certain.
Any Great Secret Technique requires a vast expenditure of Spiritual Energy. Let’s see how long you can keep this up!
Carson ran wildly, and after shaking off Tobias Singleton, he breathed a sigh of relief. However, at the same time, he felt his Spiritual Energy weakening, and his movements slowed considerably.
Carson took a turn and hid in a valley, taking out an elixir and swallowing it. At the same time, he took out the Life Essence Pearl to heal the injuries on his body.
Soon, Carson’s injuries were healed. He packed away the Life Essence Pearl, was just thinking of eating something when a streak of golden light suddenly arrived from the distance in the sky.
Carson’s expression changed drastically. He had clearly shaken Tobias off, so how had he caught up again?
Had he used some sort of method on me?
A way to pinpoint my location?
Carson hid silently, concealing his aura, hoping it was a coincidence, and that Tobias was merely passing by.
However, hope turned into disappointment.
Tobias Singleton stopped.
Hovering in mid-air, his gaze sharp as lightning, he scanned the dense forest below.
"Kid, you can’t run away. If you obediently tell me the Great Secret Technique of the Ground Shrinking Technique, I might spare your life. Otherwise, once I catch you and use a soul-searching method on you, then you’ll wish for death yet not be able to die."
Carson felt a sinking feeling in his heart; this guy indeed had a way to track him. The only solace was that Tobias’s tracking method seemed to only pinpoint a rough area, unable to detect his exact location.
"Not coming out, huh? Well, then I’ll just have to put in a bit more effort."
Tobias Singleton spoke coldly, and the Silver Flood Dragon Scissors soared into the sky once more, turning into two silver flood dragons plunging into the dense forest and valley below.
Every strike of the Silver Flood Dragon Scissors created a crater hundreds of meters in diameter. The scissors continued to fall repeatedly, rapidly destroying everything in the forest.
Damn it, there’s simply no place to hide!
Taking advantage of the Silver Flood Dragon Scissors not yet reaching his area, Carson once again deployed the Ground Shrinking Technique, vanishing from the jungle and reappearing in the distance.
"Heh, little mouse, I’ve caught you!"
Tobias Singleton sneered, directly pursuing Carson.
A new round of chase began.
Carson ran for his life. His Spiritual Energy had not yet recovered, and he soon felt the emptiness in his Dantian again. But Carson wasn’t panicked. He took out the Water-Fire Mirror, pressed one hand against the surface of the Water Mirror, and instantly a vast amount of pure Spiritual Energy surged into his body.
With a step, Carson regained his previous moving speed, even slightly faster than before.
Carson let out a sigh of relief and turned to shout, "Come on, grandson, catch up to me if you can!"
Carson’s voice carried far away. Tobias Singleton saw Carson slowing down, pleased at first, but then Carson suddenly picked up speed again. Hearing Carson’s taunt, Tobias’s face darkened instantly.
Kid, don’t get cocky. When I catch you, you’ll regret those words!
