I Open Treasure Chests in the Apocalypse

When Earth becomes a battlefield and killing becomes the norm, everyone eagerly awaits their desired items from treasure chests dropped by monsters. But he, having opened so many treasure chests, h...

Chapter 320 Defeat and Escape

"You bastard, don't you dare leave! I want to see who comes out on top!" Jiang Yuan challenged Bastard as he flew through the air with the two women in his arms.

"Today I, Zang'e, will surely tear you to pieces!" Zang'e did not give up, leaping up again and again to try to attack Jiang Yuan and the others.

However, flying before the ninth rank is essentially cheating. Even if the Abomination has over 700 points of strength, what can it do if it can't hit the target?

"You're courting disaster!" Jiang Yuan said calmly, a mocking smile on his face.

"Aaaaaaaahhhhh!"

The abomination pounded the earth furiously, and just as he was about to give up, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Lina, who hadn't been taken up by Jiang Yuan, out of the corner of his eye. "Hahaha, have you forgotten you have a companion?"

"Run!" Lina was filled with remorse. At this moment, she deeply regretted her kindness in following along. If she had encountered such a demon, she would surely have been beaten to a pulp.

"If I can't kill you all today, I'll kill her first. Once I regain my Abomination form, I'll come back to take your lives!" Abomination grinned, no longer jumping up to futilely attack Jiang Yuan. Instead, he charged towards Lina, intending to kill her.

For someone who hates, human life is worthless, and he will have no pity whatsoever.

"Go save her!" Ning Yanlan said instinctively, her face showing reluctance.

“We can’t save it. This abomination is too mysterious. Going down now would put us in danger!” Leng Yue held the opposite view.

Jiang Yuan remained silent. He had wanted to bring Lina along, but he was already in grave danger gambling with Abomination. Bringing her would put him in even greater danger, so he couldn't do that.

"Die!" Abomination revealed a cruel smile.

Jiang Yuan sighed and still sent Tianhun Tong to block it.

Bang!

A deafening collision resounded through the sky. Although the Heavenly Soul Child was unharmed, it completely lost contact with Jiang Yuan this time, meaning that the Heavenly Soul Child's energy was exhausted.

“Abomination, keep going! I have plenty of time to wear you down! Your true form is a third-tier strength type, right? Once your disintegration talent wears off, I don’t know if you can withstand one punch from me!” Jiang Yuan mocked back, responding to Abomination’s earlier contempt for them.

"Hmph, you think I'm afraid of you?" He gave Jiang Yuan a defiant look, then said, "If you've got the guts, leave your name!"

"You're not even a human being, do you think I need to introduce myself to you?" Jiang Yuan wasn't afraid, he just felt that Hatred might use some means to enhance his strength, so he wanted to avoid unnecessary trouble.

"I've remembered your three masks. The next time I see you, it will be the time of your death!" Abomination flicked his hand dismissively, no longer attacking Lina. Although he showed no mercy to anyone, he cherished his own life and would certainly not put himself in danger for the sake of retaliating against an insignificant nobody.

"Don't rush off, I think we can chat a bit more!" Jiang Yuan joked.

"Ha, a bunch of scheming villains!" Without looking back, Abomination shot away. With over 700 points of strength, his speed was much faster than an airplane. In just a dozen breaths, Abomination disappeared from everyone's sight.

Whoosh! Jiang Yuan's vision blurred, and the Divine Wings on his back could no longer hold on, turning into specks of light and disappearing into the air.

"I can't hold on any longer. I'll fall 900 meters first, and then have a final cushioning effect!" Jiang Yuan had already reached his limit. If he hadn't been sure that he would die upon landing, he definitely wouldn't have gone to experience that feeling of being squeezed for divine energy.

The Earth's gravitational acceleration was several times greater due to the influence of the Golden Gate, but a free fall of one thousand meters would still take seven or eight seconds. With air resistance, there would still be a gap of more than ten seconds, which would allow Jiang Yuan to recover for about one cycle.

"You two need to lose weight. You're so fat you almost turned me into a fallen angel!"

Jiang Yuan, enjoying the freefall, still had the mind to tease the two women. However, as soon as he finished speaking, Ning Yanlan pinched the soft flesh on his waist, while Leng Yue was more reserved.

She retorted, "You're not a fallen angel. Have you ever seen anyone spread their wings and run and fight on the ground?"

“Yes, it’s more like a free-range chicken!” Ning Yanlan added.

"You...you guys! Alright, you've really driven my will to the bare minimum!" Jiang Yuan was furious.

“Fine, let’s die together then!” Leng Yue said with certainty.

Although this guy doesn't care about his own and her lives, Ning Yanlan is different; he definitely wouldn't be willing to let her go.

"Three seconds left! Everyone get ready, don't land too badly!" Jiang Yuan kindly reminded them.

In those ten seconds, Jiang Yuan used half a sixth-tier Holy Spirit Stone. Although it generated a few points of divine energy, times have changed. In this state, it was already extremely remarkable that he could generate a few points of divine energy for even one second.

The Divine Wings opened again, but it was still not as quick as expected, lasting only a fraction of a second. The Divine Wings, which had been painstakingly formed, were destroyed and disappeared once more after only a little over half a second.

However, because of this half-second, the speed of the three was greatly reduced when they approached the ground, and with their physical condition, they landed without any injury.

He wasn't exactly unscathed, because Jiang Yuan, who had suffered the most, was in so much pain that he couldn't breathe. Divine energy is inherently difficult to recover, and the Holy Wings' predatory extraction of divine energy had caused considerable damage to his meridians.

"It seems the recovery plan for my self-healing potential will have to be postponed again!" Jiang Yuan had no way to express his bitterness, but fortunately, he had activated his self-healing potential, so a minor injury was really nothing serious, and recovery was only a matter of time.

"I'll go check on that girl!" Ning Yanlan ran towards Lina's location. Because of the Abomination's super strong attack, Tianhun Tong was knocked dozens of meters away, and it was really hard to say whether Lina, who was being protected, could survive.
