Chapter 564: Escape?
Inside the White Cave’s extradimensional world, the gray destructive airflow was sweeping and surging, and was then sucked into the spatial fragment by the black hole’s suction force.
Just as the entire s.p.a.ce was in complete chaos, and the Small World of the white cave seemed to be on the verge of collapse.
“Da.”
Xin’s figure stepped out of the spatial crack with one foot.
He looked left and right, clearly having lost his direction and orientation.
As far as the eye could see, other than the mess in the sky and the land that was ten thousand miles in the same miserable state, what other landmarks could bring back memories?
“Shouldn’t we return to the Lijian Gra.s.sland…” Xin’s lips opened, but he couldn’t close them.
“Put me down.”
Lan Ling finally recovered from the turbulence of the spatial fragment. She shook her head fiercely, and then Xin put her down from his back.
As soon as she stepped into the air, she immediately opened her hand and formed a seal with her fingers.
“Thirty-Six Heavens Sealed Array, open!”
With a command.
The area within a radius of ten kilometers lit up with a weak light.
Dense path patterns interweaved and formed a huge net that covered this area.
Xin instantly understood.
“This is the Lijian Gra.s.sland?”
He looked at the area covered by the path patterns with his mouth agape.
Obviously, this area was the area where the ‘Thirty-Six Heavens Sealed Array’ was located, which was the Lijian gra.s.sland and beyond.
But at this moment, where was the gra.s.sland?
The Lijian Gra.s.sland, the gra.s.sland was gone, even the sword was gone..
Pure my a.s.s!
“Freeze!”
A shout came from beside him.
Xin turned his head to look and realized that Lan Ling, who had also escaped from the ancient book’s s.p.a.ce, didn’t have any extra time to think about those irrelevant problems.
She had already put all of her heart and energy into the ‘Thirty-Six Heavens Sealed Array’.
The purpose was to borrow the power of the great array to forcefully stop the White Cave from collapsing, so that it would not be affected by the explosion of the ancient book’s s.p.a.ce and would directly explode.
Even Xin knew that if the White Cave world really exploded like it had done before…
Then the result..
The explosion of an ancient book was enough to make all the red-robed’s hair stand on end.
If the White Cave really exploded, not many people would be able to walk out alive!
“Da Da Da.”
One after another, red-robed’s figures stepped out of the spatial crack.
Some time ago, in the ancient book’s s.p.a.ce, there were only 16 or 17 red figures left. Now, only 11 or 12 of them had landed in the sky above the Lijian Gra.s.sland.
“Lan Ling!”
The first thing the Night Guardian saw when he landed was Lan Ling, who was struggling to hold on.
He wanted to help, but he was completely powerless.
“Don’t worry about me. Let’s take a look at the rest of the White Cave and see where the experiencer is.” Lan Ling turned her head and said, “White Cave, I can’t hold on for long!”
The Night Guardian’s heart skipped a beat, and he immediately went back to work.
The experiencer who entered the Lijian Gra.s.sland had no choice. In a situation where death was inevitable, they had done their best to release the afterglow.
However, for those experiencers who had never entered the Lijian Gra.s.sland, red-robed would not let them die with them in such a situation.
Such a sacrifice was meaningless.
Moreover, once they got out, they would not be able to explain it to the surrounding powers of the White Cave.
What should they say?
“The arena of the Heavens’ energy movement?” The Night Guardian asked. “Your Juniors entered the White Cave, and because of an accident, all of them died?”
There was nothing to say!
Even more so!
The Night Guardian did not think too much about it. He immediately merged his spiritual senses into the way of the Heavens’ energy movement. He borrowed the dark element and the secrets of the heavens to expand his field of vision.
At this moment, there was no need to accurately search.
As long as there was a slight fluctuation of life force and the scent of a human, he would definitely be a survivor.
However..
“There’s no one!”
Night Guardian’s face immediately turned green.
Not only was it impossible to detect the presence of a human, there wasn’t even a hint of life force within a radius of dozens of kilometers!
“They’re all dead?”
Xin raised his eyebrows, and his forehead was covered with wrinkles. He said in disbelief, “The arena exploded, and everyone died?”
Night Guardian was silent, unable to say anything.
The arena exploded.
Even with the spatial fragment as a barrier, the impact on the white cave was still not small.
Lan Ling, who was struggling to maintain the great array, already knew this.
Even Red-robed felt that the explosion was troublesome. Could the experiencer in the White Cave survive?
“Not all of them might die.”
Black Flame stepped out of the spatial crack and said, “Don’t forget, we can’t contact the outside world in the White Cave. The people outside will definitely not be able to contact us.”
“It’s impossible for all the Red-robed troops to die at once. In the end, they didn’t even leave a signal.”
“Therefore, the people outside will definitely be able to sense that something happened to us in the White Cave and cut off contact.”
“Under such circ.u.mstances…”
He didn’t say it explicitly, but at this moment, Xin suddenly understood.
“You mean that Elder Wuyue and the others have already taken all the experiencer out in advance?”
Black Flame didn’t respond.
He only raised his head slightly and looked into the distance.
“Look.”
Everyone looked up at the same time.
At this moment, the noise stopped, and the surroundings became quiet.
Those subtle but persistent sounds also entered everyone’s ears.
“Pitter-patter…”
“It’s raining in the White Cave?” Xin’s face was full of surprise.
In the s.p.a.ce above them, fine and dense raindrops were continuously falling. However, due to the shattering of s.p.a.ce, they had yet to be completely repaired.
These raindrops could only stay in the air for less than a breath’s time before they completely disappeared.
However, if one were to look at the spot where the raindrops were falling from above…
The raindrops fell and disappeared.
This process was repeated repeatedly.
However, the spot above them was still continuously seeping water.
Under such circ.u.mstances, the raindrops that continuously dripped from the nine heavens formed a curtain of rain. It was like a three-meter-wide barrier that separated the upper and lower levels of the white cave.
“How can it rain in the White Cave?”
Everyone was dumbfounded.
The White Cave was a scorching place.
Here, even a single breath was filled with scorching fire elements.
How could it suddenly rain in such a place where Yin water could not be found?
“Something’s strange.”
The first thing that came to mind for the Night Guardian was the Storyteller.
After all, he had never seen anyone else besides the Red-robed.
As if they had made an agreement, the Saint Servant and the Sleeveless one disappeared together.
“Be careful!”
The letter was as if it was facing a great enemy. Spiritual senses immediately covered the surrounding area and flashed to Lan Ling’s side to protect her.
“Where’s the communication team?”
He shouted, “Immediately send the situation here to the outside world. The Storyteller and Sleeveless are not people we can take down.”
No one responded.
The scene was deathly silent.
Black Flame sneered, “You brainless blockhead. The communication team has also entered the ancient book’s s.p.a.ce, but do you think that they can withstand the explosion and break through several layers of spatial fragment at the same time?”
Xin was stunned.
Turning his head back, he saw a group of Red-robed with large areas of torn clothes.
These people all looked very familiar. They were the people who usually rushed to the front line with him.
That’s right!
These people with rich battle experience could walk out from the layers of spatial fragment that were pushed in by the explosion.
But what about those communication troops that were not good at fighting?
Xin closed his eyes and remained silent.
Everyone’s eyes dimmed and they lowered their heads slightly.
The atmosphere was a little stagnant.
No one spoke, only the sound of the rain that was constantly making noise in the sky.
Everyone actually understood that this mission was very hard. There was even a Storyteller and the Saint Servant, Sleeveless.
But..
Before the battle had even begun, the other party had already used an ancient book, s.p.a.ce blockade, and detonated it.
Half of their own people had died?
“This should have been Gou… Wuyue Sword Deity’s mission!” Xin suddenly shouted.
“Xin!”
Lan Ling suddenly turned her head and glared at him.
Xin immediately lowered his head again.
That’s right, so what if it was his mission?
They belonged to the Holy Divine Palace to begin with. Although they belonged to different camps of red-robed and white-clothed people.
But they were all one family. This kind of thing was not intentional.
They did not let him in.
Could it be strange?
It could not be strange!
“Wait.”
“Wait for the outside world to contact you again. Take the Communication Jade with you?”
Night Guardian raised his hand and patted Xin’s shoulder lightly.
His nose twitched and he turned his head to look to the side. His eyes were empty as if he had completely lost focus.
“It’s possible that the Storyteller isn’t here anymore.”
“His ancient book s.p.a.ce needs to be prepared in advance. Otherwise, it’s impossible for him to duplicate the ‘Thirty-Six Heavens Sealed Array’.”
“If he doesn’t duplicate all of them, the rules will be missing. If he wants to create a brand new ancient book s.p.a.ce, he has to complete the rules of the Heavenly Path.”
“Even he can’t do such a thing.”
“So, it’s impossible for him to use that kind of method against us again.”
“And with Lan Ling here, it’s useless for him to come out once he’s in control of the great array…”
The Night Guardian paused for a moment, and Xin immediately followed up, “What do you want?”
He was very familiar with this situation.
Last time, near the Spirit Fusion Swamp, the Night Guardian spoke in the same tone. Then, he stepped on the road to find Xu Xiaoshou alone.
The Night Guardian gently shook his head. “I’ll leave this place and the White Cave to you, but… Lu Ke, don’t die!”
With that, he turned around and flew away.
“I’ll go with you!”
Xin instantly became anxious.
Who didn’t know that Lu Ke was in the hands of the Second Brother of the Saint Servant?
If he let the Night Guardian go alone, wouldn’t he be looking for his own death?
“Protect Lan Ling.”
Black Flame pressed Xin down and said seriously, “I’ll go.”
Xin’s eyes turned dark. “Can you do it?”
Black Flame: “…”
He didn’t even want to say anything and jumped up.
But at this moment, a burst of “Hehe” laughter suddenly came from above.
“Hehe, your opponent, isn’t he him?”
Black Flame suddenly raised his head.
But he saw that above his head, at some point in time, a figure in a shabby red dress had appeared.
“Story, Teller!”
Black Flame gnashed his teeth and suddenly understood something. “You’re waiting for the Night Guardian to leave?”
“Hehe, he’s getting smarter.”
The Storyteller pinched his fingers and said coquettishly, “After all, that old fellow has the power of the higher void. I wonder if you all have one copy of this thing, or is he the only one who has it?”
Black Flame’s heart sank to the bottom.
One copy for everyone?
I want to!
However, even the red-robed troops of the Holy Divine Palace’s headquarters couldn’t do this.
Moreover, it was his chance to watch the Night Guardian.
“What’s the point of you staying here?” Black Flame said in a low voice, “You said yourself that you don’t want to kill anyone, and there’s no one here for you to kill!”
The Storyteller smiled as he looked at everyone and finally landed on Lan Ling.
“Amazing, to be able to control the great array to such an extent.”
“It’s true that they might not be able to kill the few of you, but it’s highly unlikely that they would be able to hurt you with this array.”
The Storyteller rolled his eyes and said, “How about this, we’ll each stay here. If you don’t move, they won’t move either. How about it?”
“Huh?”
This time, even Lan Ling who was controlling the array was in a daze for a moment.
What kind of saying was this?
If the enemy doesn’t move, I Won’t Move?
“Why is this so?” Black Flame squeezed out a voice from between his teeth. “What on earth do you want to do? !”
“Nothing…”
The Storyteller rolled up his fingers and pouted as he sighed. “It’s just that someone asked someone to stop you. There’s no other reason. They were used.”
Someone?
All the Red-robed were stunned. The next second, they reacted.
Second Brother of the Saint Servant!
..
Take the easy way out
“Two steps to heaven!”
“Three steps to immortality!”
“…”
Xu Xiaoshou found the s.p.a.ce node from the ancient book and returned to the White Cave. He didn’t even dare to delay for a second.
After running the “Vanis.h.i.+ng technique”, the continuous teleportation to the body of the spiritual source is empty before it stopped.
“Whew.”
Xu Xiaoshou heaved a sigh of relief.
Xu Xiaoshou had dispelled the vanis.h.i.+ng technique’s state.
These two great awakening techniques consumed too much spiritual source.
As he was still in the White Cave, he did not dare to let his spiritual source be in a state of deficit.
Even though he was full of ‘High Spirits’, he still took out a few cans of infernal energy liquid from the white skeleton and gulped them down. Only then did he feel a little safer.
“Escape!”
Clenching his fists, Xu Xiaoshou finally felt relieved.
From the Battle of Wits and courage in the ancient book’s s.p.a.ce until he was almost forced to make a move, then the situation was reversed under the word ‘run’, and finally, the s.p.a.ce exploded..
This series of experiences almost drained his brain.
Now, Xu Xiaoshou could not even be bothered to think.
He just wanted to find a quiet place to lie down and sleep soundly to recover his energy.
But he couldn’t!
Now, he was still in the White Cave.
Even if he lived in peace, he would still think of danger.
He hadn’t completely escaped the danger, so how could he have the chance to sleep?
Peace was reserved for the dead!
“It’s time to go out.”
He calculated quickly.
Xu Xiaoshou’s homesickness was extremely strong.
At this moment, he only wanted to return to Tiansang Spirit Palace.
He wanted to return to the spiritual affairs division and listen to Elder Qiao’s ridiculous laughter.
He returned to the council hall and stroked the princ.i.p.al’s soft white hair.
Return..
Other than Elder Sang, who else was in Tiansang Spirit Palace? Xu Xiaoshou missed him dearly!
“How do I get out of here?”
Using the spiritual source to separate him, he held the Fourth Sword in his hand.
At this moment, Xu Xiaoshou’s thoughts stopped.
His plan was only to get out of the ancient book’s s.p.a.ce. He would only disappear and teleport after he came out. That was all.
He didn’t have time to think about the rest in the ancient book’s s.p.a.ce.
“Lijian Gra.s.sland?”
An absurd idea arose in his mind.
Xu Xiaoshou thought of the only way to get out of the world other than the normal way out of the white cave — to use the Cardinal Wheel to control the ‘Thirty-Six Heavens Sealed Array’ and teleport himself out.
But..
He must be crazy!
Go back?
He would only be courting death if he went back!
Xu Xiaoshou instantly dismissed this crazy idea.
He began to calculate in his heart again.
“Om…”
In his mind, the fixed time broadcast once again emitted the long-lost call from the extradimensional cracks. Xu Xiaoshou’s mind moved.
But at this moment, a relaxed and pleasant voice filled with surprise appeared behind him.
“Xu Xiaoshou?”
“Who?”
Xu Xiaoshou subconsciously turned his head in shock.
He was dressed in a red-robed with his sleeves fluttering in the wind.
The voice from behind him was merely a Night Guardian who had just tried it out. When he saw the so-called “Second Brother of the Saint Servant” in front of him, he turned his head back in alarm.
The smile on his face froze on the spot.
The corner of Xu Xiaoshou’s mouth also twitched.
Again.
Again..
Their eyes met.
“Pitter patter…”
The rain continued to fall, and the atmosphere was not harmonious.
At this time, Xu Xiaoshou finally diverted his attention and hurriedly put it on the Information Bar.
“Being tracked, pa.s.sive points, + 1.”
“Being peeped, pa.s.sive points, + 1.”
“Suspected, pa.s.sive points + 1.”
