i mean i want to know stress in a sets of node how changes with varying distance to a reference.

I'm not sure if there is any easy way to do this inside the Abaqus GUI, but it is possible using python line commands in the GUI.
I prefer to do all of my post processing using python commands which exports data to a .txt file. I then make plots in Matlab or Excel. I've found this to be much more flexible, less time consuming, and make better plots than if I do all processing and plotting in Abaqus. There are many examples online of using python to extract data. I attached an example code which should make getting a python script working for your situation easier.
For instance change xpoint to your reference node. Extract the displacements and stresses in a sub-region that is specified as a set in your odb. Write the displacement and the stresses point-wise to a txt file. Use your favorite software to visualize and/or post process the data.
You might find the link attached helpful for dealing with a stress field and specifying how/where the stresses are extracted.
Unless you need the Abaqus GUI for printing or debugging, math intensive codes are much faster from the command line. In windows the .bat file would be:
@echo off
@call abaqus viewer noGUI=Cube_Example.py
ping 127.0.0.1 -n 6 > nul

Dear Daniel
Thanks for special answer it's very helpful.
If it is possible i want to send my model for you, i don't know that my result are true or not.
Thank you
Dear Khaled
I found a way to fix this problem, you can create a path including your interest nodes( in a straight line or Arc) and save it, then create XY Data with path, i hope it be a helpful answer
