Transmigration: Children of The Plane

Gravity Field Activate

After setting up the array formation, Xue Bai knew he needed some bait for his plan to work. And what better bait than him, the very target itself?

But Xue Bai very quickly shook that idea out of his head. While standing in the center of the formation would be a very easy way to lure out whoever was chasing him. It would also scream out, "I have a plan. Come close to me."

Even a braindead person would know that Xue Bai had a trump card and was waiting for someone to test him. Or the man could just use ranged attacks from afar to pelt the restrained Xue Bai to death.

Either way standing inside a circle and waiting for his stalker wasn\'t a plan Xue Bai wanted to use.

So after some brainstorming, Xue Bai eventually found a suitable plan. And after leaving his array formation behind, Xue Bai dove into the forest in search of a demonic beast.

His plan was simple. Lure a demonic beast near his array formation and, while showing his back to where his array Xue Bai would pretend to struggle against it. This way, hopefully, Xue Bai would get his stalker to appear behind him and in the array formation where his life would become forfeit.

Jumping from tree to tree, Xue Bai searched for a suitable beast to \'struggle against.\' While his stalker might not know the limits of Xue Bai\'s strength, he could still assume that Xue Bai could cross a stage or two to fight.

This was common for high-level geniuses everywhere in the cultivation world. Even Wang Yu could leapfrog above his rank and fight people two stages above him.

So if Xue Bai couldn\'t, while it wouldn\'t be an instant red flag, there would definitely be some suspicions.

Eventually, Xue Bai found a demonic beast that should be beyond his capabilities. It was an Azure Winged Wolf in the 5th stage of the Bone Strengthening Realm.

The Azure Winged Wolf, while it had a mighty name, it was a common demonic beast throughout the Baishen Plane. At first, many had thought it to be a descendent of the legendary Moon Howling Heavenly Wolf, a demonic beast that could grow to the God Great Ream. But after many disappointments, the Azure Wing Wolf was eventually labeled as an odd mutation of the Azure Wolf.

This Azure Wing Wolf in front of Xue Bai, like the others, looked extremely similar to the Azure Wolf, a demonic beast that could grow up to the Qi Sea Realm but had a set of pure white wings, giving it a holy aura. However, it was constructed by the bloodthirsty expression it always carried.

And while this demonic beast was certainly strong and had the realm advantage over Xue Bai, Xue Bai had the combat power of a 6th-stage Bone Strengthening Realm cultivator.

But, since he needed to play pig to eat the tiger against both the Azure Winged wolf and his stalker, Xue Bai didn\'t use his full strength and causally shot off a half-charged arrow at his opponent before retreating.

The arrow wasn\'t imbued with either of Xue Bai\'s elements, nor did he use his entire strength to fire it. So the Azure Winged Wolf, who was suddenly pierced in the back by an arrow from a much weaker prey, was naturally enraged.

So giving, after unleashing a guttural roar, the almost 3-meter tall Azure Winged Wolf unfettered his wings and flew in the direction Xue Bai ran in.

The Azure Winged Wolf, while it had a wingspan of almost double its height, wasn\'t able to fly but could only glide due to its massive weight. However, that was more than enough to catch up to his much weaker prey.

But while the Azure Winged Wolf chased Xue Bai through the dense and chaotically arranged forest, it soon realized that its wings would do more harm than good and retracted them, opting to chase Xue Bai on foot.

And this chase would continue for a long time, as Xue Bai would take various detours making sure that when he retreated to where he set up his array formation, it would look out of desperation and not planned.

Not forgetting to constantly shoot arrows back at the Azure Winged Wolf behind him to keep it enraged, Xue Bai calmly navigated through the forest as if it were his own home.

Using the branches of trees and boosting pads or spots to grapple, Xue Bai was like a fish in the water as he dove and ran through the forest calmly.

Finally, after taking almost half an hour of leading the Azure Winged Wolf around, Xue Bai arrived back at his array formation, where he, after landing on a position just outside of it, turned to fight the demonic beast.

As an opening attack, Xue Bai took back out his bow and sent off a flaming arrow at the Azure Winged Wolf\'s eye. Then, without even bothering to wait for the arrow to reach its target, Xue Bai charged at his enemy with Fire Breath in hand.

Ever since he won the sword in the auction 18 months ago, it had completely overtaken Pale Blue as his signature weapon. The Fire Element amplification that it gave was too valuable at lower cultivation Realms. In the five physical Realms, where every power boost was useful, a 50% amplification was heaven-defying.

The Azure Winged Wolf, who was still enraged from Xue Bai leading it around for almost an hour, wanted nothing more than to kill and eat Xue Bai this instant.

So instead of dodging the two-pronged attack, it used a claw to swipe the arrow away, then ignoring the searing pain it felt on its paw, jumped at Xue Bai, who was still charging.

Even though the Azure Winged Wolf was enraged, it still kept some rationality and wanted to use its advantage to win the fight against Xue Bai. It knew it was stronger than the tiny human and planned to use its physical body to crush Xue Bai.

However, Xue Bai had long predicted something similar, and as the Azure Winged Wolf was in the middle of its jump, he pulled out a spare sword from his spatial ring and threw it at the demonic beast\'s wing.

The Azure Winged Wolf, not sensing a threat from the feeble-looking iron sword, planned to, like the arrow previously, swat it away. But since the claw it used earlier was still in pain, it used one of its wings, expecting to see the iron sword be sent flying.

However, what it didn\'t know was that the sword was imbued with Xue Bai\'s Space Element. So after the Azure Winged Wolf\'s wing made contact with the sword, it was pierced through like a bullet going through a sheet of paper, almost cutting the wing in half.

Xue Bai\'s Space Element, to the ignorant people of the Baishen Plane, would be completely overlooked. Instead, they would think the iron sword he threw out was a treasure sword that could cut through steel like mud.

And while this would also give Xue Bai his fair share of troubles, it was much better than people knowing he had two Elements, one of which was something only seen in the Immortal World.

Continuing to go on the offensive, Xue Bai, while the Azure Winged Wolf was roaring in pain, jumped up at one of the demonic beast\'s eyes and slashed with Fire Breath, almost blinding it.

After acrobatically jumping away from the Azure Winged Wolf, Xue Bai landed calmly on the ground. But now that the distance between them was extended, Xue Bai felt calm.

Sure the sneak attacks were successful, but Xue Bai could\'ve also ended the fight with that sword. However, the stalker still hadn\'t shown himself yet, and Xue Bai needed to make him appear before killing the Azure Winged Wolf.

But since he had shown himself yet, Xue Bai was thinking he was having too easy of a fight to lure the man out. So Xue Bai continued the fight and attempted to visibly struggle as to lure out the stalker.

But even after a few minutes of going blow for blow with the Azure Winged Wolf Xue and the stalker still hiding in the surroundings, Xue Bai was getting impatient.

However, just as he was thinking about ending the fight, he felt a presence enter the array formation he had set up.

By now, Xue Bai\'s clothes had dozens of cuts in them, with blood leaking out from them like a bottle of water with a hole giving him a very pathetic appearance.

Adding the fact that his hair was completely disheveled, his originally clean outfit was all muddy, and his heavy breathing. Xue Bai looked to be on his last legs.

And Wang Xiang, who was hiding in a nearby tree seeing this, thought it to be his chance to make an achievement towards the clan.

His father had died, and now he, as the only man in his direct family, needed to step up and protect his mother. And what better way than to kill their most talented enemy before he managed to grow up?

Plus, the tangible excitement that came from being able to kill a cultivator who was destined to reach the Mortality Shedding Realm made the situation all too appealing for Wang Xiang.

But thanks to his father\'s extensive teachings, Wang Xiang knew to keep his calm, and still using his concealment arts, began to sneak up behind Xue Bai. His father had long beaten into him the core rules of a successful assassin, and to kill his target in one move was rule number 1.

So even though Xue Bai was a full Realm lower than him, Wang Xiang still took him as an enemy on the same level and planned to use his entire strength and make sure there was no chance for the Young Duke to survive.

However, just as Wang Xiang was about to get within striking distance of Xue Bai, an ominous feeling suddenly engulfed him. And trusting his instincts as an assassin, Wang Xiang instantly abandoned the mission and sprinted away, not caring about the noise he made.

But it was too late.

"TOO LATE!" Xue Bai yelled out as he turned around. "GRAVITY FIELD ACTIVATE!"
