Chapter 767: A Torn Spatial Tunnel

“What should we do now?” Bai Li asked.

Should they chase after the furious Mohrian, or run with the loot?

Qin Feng looked at the exhausted Bai Li with great concern, and he himself was no better. Mohrian is not a beast they could easily kill now.

They could defeat it, but it might require a great price to defeat the beast deity.

More so, Qin Feng would not have found out about the existence of the Sacred Flame Meteor if not because of the sudden intrusion. Mohrian had obviously been absorbing the runes from the stone all this time.

Mohrian could have faked a defeat and returned to its cave to lure in Qin Feng, then detonate the stone, like what Qin Feng had done to Z previously. No matter how powerful they were, Qin Feng and Bai Li would not be able to escape unscathed.

Their opponent was a beast deity that had lived a long life. It must still have a trick or two up its sleeves.

It was best not to pursue the beast if there was not a safe way to put it down quickly.

Under such consideration, Qin Feng said, “We should first return to the base of Dusk Dragon. It’s time to return to the Black Citadel with them. We will have our chance against Mohrian in the future.”

“Humph! That filthy dragon. I swear I will come back and skin him alive one day!” Bai Li echoed. She admitted what Qin Feng said about Mohrian when they first met was right.

Besides, neither side was able to gain an upper hand after battling for three straight days. It would be meaningless to keep the battle going.

“Let’s go!” Qin Feng said.

Bai Li nodded and instantly teleported themselves into the Dusk Dragon stronghold.

Everyone knew that it was about time to return to the Black Citadel. They sized up the people around them, wondering whether a fight would break out on the bridge of Black Citadel at such a volatile moment.

The sudden appearance of Qin Feng and Bai Li caught everyone’s attention. Complicated expressions were seen on everyone’s faces when they recognized who had returned.

It was the couple that had lured Mohrian away earlier. It was miraculous that they were still alive, just looking a little battered.

The ability to escape Mohrian and return alive showed just how capable they were.

Qin Feng and Bai Li had returned by leaping through dimensions. Thus, they had arrived earlier than Mohrian and those courageous yet rash apt.i.tude users.

Fire Phoenix was feeling uneasy. Her instinct told her something bad was about to happen. Regardless, she still opened up the fixated waymark as planned.

“Everyone, I hope that you have returned from a fruitful trip. The tunnel is opening soon.”

Among the partic.i.p.ants, some were being secretive and surveyed vigilantly. Some, who liked to boast, were acting jubilantly. They could not wait to return and tell everyone the fortune they had plundered from the island.

However, more were pulling a long face, with bloodshot and greed-imbued eyes. They had gained almost nothing from this trip, but would not be satisfied with leaving this place empty-handed. They were probably going to create havoc once they went past the tunnel.

No matter what their current state of mind was, most people had their eyes fixed on Fire Phoenix.

People from Dusk Dragon had set up the spatial tunnel that took the form of a ten-meter wide gate. Such a phenomenal presence could be seen from afar, which served as a notice for apt.i.tude users around the island that time was almost up.

This was when a giant roar pierced their eardrums.

The crowd followed the direction of the roar reflexively and found more than ten apt.i.tude users that were approaching fast in the sky. Behind them chased a daunting behemoth.

The fire draconic beast, Mohrian.

“Why has Mohrian returned?”

“Someone must have provoked it!”

“It’s those who left earlier.”

“Why are we still standing here? It’s time to run!”

The apt.i.tude users knew a disaster was imminent.

Previously, Qin Feng had helped them once by distracting Mohrain away. The same trick would not work the second time.

Moreover, no Dark Coalition member would care about others’ life and death.

None of them ran the last time because they had no place to run to.

This time, the crowd did not hesitate and rushed toward the spatial tunnel.

Qin Feng reacted swiftly. He grabbed Bai Li’s hand and entered the spatial tunnel in front of everyone using Phantom s.h.i.+ft.

After Qin Feng escaped through the spatial tunnel, the rest followed suit and swarmed through the gate.

Fire Phoenix was infuriated.

She did not understand why these people had not learned their lesson and kept provoking Mohrian again and again. In the end, they expected Dusk Dragon to wipe their a.s.s. How ignorant!

However, it was impossible to terminate the spatial tunnel now.

“Go. Leave no one behind.”

Members of Dusk Dragon knew that there was no other way. This stronghold was just a makes.h.i.+ft base constructed from wood. Their lives were way more valuable than that.

As such, they abandoned the base and pa.s.sed through the spatial tunnel too.

The fleeing A-tiers were relieved to see the spatial tunnel. They scrambled through the tunnel, much like drowning men who have found a floating log.

The tunnel might be larger than normal but the gigantic Mohrian could not get through it.

It would bar Mohrian and stop his pursuit.

Besides, Mohrian had no idea where the tunnel led to. Due to different conditions, certain creatures that dominate their original dimension might become powerless when in a foreign world.

However, Mohrian was exasperated.

Slas.h.!.+

His claws ripped the atmosphere apart and forcefully tore the spatial tunnel, creating a rift.

The rift startled the beasts around h.e.l.l Island. The aura that flowed in from the other side of the rift was fresh and alluring.

Behind Mohrain, many beasts had run up the mountain too.

Qin Feng was the first to reach Black Citadel.

This was not where they first entered h.e.l.l Island. They came out to a rural zone outside the Black Citadel. It was actually not very far from the bridge.

Qin Feng looked up and realized they were still within the s.p.a.ce stabilizing apparatus. They could not return to Fengli City immediately using a spatial waymark.

Of course, such a rule did not apply to Bai Li.

Many A-tiers came out from the tunnel behind them and fled in fear. They had all seen Mohrian from close range.

Qin Feng did not return to Fengli City immediately. He led Bai Li to leave the area.

The last batch of apt.i.tude users had emerged too.

They were in an even more dire situation. Burnt marks could be seen all around their bodies. They suffered injuries when being pursued by the draconic beast.

When they rejoiced for finally being safe, a distorted rift came cras.h.i.+ng through the tunnel behind them.

Slas.h.!.+

It was as if the sky had been ripped in half. The spatial tunnel instantly turned into a hundred-meter-high rift.

Argh!

An A-tier that just came through the rift was immediately shredded into pieces.
