Chapter 583 Escape
Zhong Cai and Wu Shaogan, husband and wife, cooperated to attack Na Wanbo.
With a protective umbrella above his head and the ability to manipulate a giant sword with his mind, Wan Bo was extremely experienced in combat. Yet, he was unable to gain the upper hand against these two juniors, which truly alarmed him.
Even worse, he himself almost got caught in spatial storms several times!
The two juniors were able to dodge the spatial storms every time they appeared—their warship seemed to have the ability to teleport, so even if the spatial storms appeared very quickly, they could still avoid them.
Wanbo himself cannot teleport, but Tongtian's speed is extremely fast, and his sensitivity to energy is also extremely keen, so he can also avoid spatial storms. However, if a spatial storm appears too suddenly, he will have a reaction time, which will make things a bit difficult for him...
Zhong Cai and Wu Shaogan were inside the warship with their defenses fully up, so even if they were hit, they would be fine. Apart from the tension they already felt when facing Tongtian, they were not in a heavy mood.
There was a small mirror floating to the side of Wu Shaogan, with clear routes and hints on it. Wu Shaogan could quickly respond whenever he noticed something by focusing his soul on the mirror.
After its evolution, the teleportation function can no longer cover a very long distance each time, but it's enough to just barely escape a spatial storm.
It does consume a lot of Mystic Stones.
However, for Zhong and Wu, Xuan Stones are something that can be obtained by selling resources, so they are not afraid of consuming them at all.
·
Zhong Cai felt great satisfaction controlling the artillery fire.
He had faced powerful experts before, but at that time his cultivation level was too low, so he entrusted the control of the cannons to Sect Master Ji.
Things are different now.
Admittedly, the reaction of Nirvana cultivators is indeed slower than that of Tongtian cultivators, but Zhong Cai is different. Although he has only recently entered the Nirvana stage, he is ranked tenth on the Sky List. If he is willing, he is already a pill refiner who can attempt to refine level nine pills!
He simply felt that honing his eighth-level alchemy skills would allow him to break through to the ninth level more quickly and become a Pill Master.
Therefore, Zhong Cai's spiritual sense was already very sensitive. Although it was still not comparable to a ninth-level alchemist, it was very close to the ninth level.
Therefore, when he was controlling the artillery fire, he only needed to increase the range of the firepower to put pressure on Wanbo.
The couple worked together.
When Zhong Cai fired the cannon, Wu Shaogan maneuvered the warship, and when he saw that Wan Bo was trapped by the cannon fire, he rammed it with all his might!
What's even more interesting is that, since the warship was transformed from the ancient city, its shape can change freely according to the couple's wishes. So, when Wu Shaogan crashes into Wan Bo, he suddenly transforms the front of the warship into a sharp cone, an extra-long blade, a huge hammer, a densely packed board of nails, and countless spearheads... He really plays with the warship to an extreme degree.
Wan Bo also saw through the mystery and was in a panic. However, the warship's speed and changes were too fast. Even though he could react in time, he was still gradually becoming irritable.
Aside from the fact that the two juniors could keep his displeasure at bay, the psychological pressure of approaching a breakthrough and the ever-present threat of spatial storms added fuel to Wan Bo's anxiety. Even more—Wu Shaogan knew exactly how to annoy people. Even though the warship itself had defenses, he would transform the front of the warship into a giant shield to block the blow when Wan Bo wielded his giant sword. After blocking it, he would charge straight at Wan Bo, always aiming for Wan Bo's head!
Even with his good temper, Wan Bo wouldn't tolerate being tricked by a junior, especially since he was already in a bad mood. So even though he knew he shouldn't be angry and needed to stay calm, he was finding it increasingly difficult to control his emotions.
Even worse, although the cultivator who has reached the Heavenly Realm can use the laws of heaven and earth that he has comprehended to mobilize the power of heaven and earth to deal with enemies, he is in a spatial rift, so he dares not do so at all—because if he is not careful, he will create a spatial storm himself, and he will be the one who suffers.
Unless he wants to die together with them.
Otherwise, it is possible that the one in this place is a being who has comprehended the rules of space—who might be able to slightly guide the spatial fluctuations within the rift.
Unfortunately, the rules that Wanbo comprehended were not the same.
Therefore, Wan Bo was constantly rammed and toyed with by the warship, and his anger almost materialized. Although his moves were still able to remain stable, they were no longer flawless compared to before—especially since his speed had slowed down slightly.
A slight difference can lead to a huge error.
Wu Shaogan found a flaw in Wan Bo's movements!
Then he went straight for the opening.
Wan Bo was thrown backward by the impact, his pupils suddenly contracting!
not good!
Behind him was a spatial storm!
Wan Bo forcefully twisted his body, throwing the large umbrella above his head to block the storm.
At the same time, he felt a pang of heartache—the umbrella's defensive capabilities were strong, but it couldn't compare to the ravages of the spatial storm. It was torn apart very quickly in the storm, making a piercing tearing sound.
This is a level nine defensive treasure!
It was another treasure that Wanbo had prepared for himself to help him withstand the lightning tribulation.
Admittedly, the large umbrella is purely for defense and not specifically designed to withstand lightning tribulations, but its existence will increase Wan Bo's chances of success.
Now the big umbrella... has been destroyed.
Wanbo's eyes widened, and he forced out a few words from his throat.
"Okay, little one!"
Wu Shaogan remained calm, showing no regard for Wan Bo's anger.
The warship swooped down and rammed into Wanbo with tremendous force!
—Yes, Wu Shaogan not only ignored Wan Bo's anger, but also decisively used teleportation to deliver a heavy blow to Wan Bo!
Wanbo was knocked away again.
At the same moment, his face turned pale.
Because just as Wu Shaogan charged, Zhong Cai's artillery fire covered Wan Bo!
Without the protection of the large umbrella, Wan Bo, despite having other defensive items, was still incredibly vulnerable to the combined attack of hundreds of cannons. The combined power of the firepower transformed into layers of energy that enveloped him and caused him to explode continuously!
In an instant, Wanbo was covered in dust and dirt.
Wanbo's eyes were bloodshot—they were congested.
Anger surged into his mind, raging and gnawing at Wan Bo's last remaining rationality.
He never imagined that he would suffer such a great loss at the hands of a mere junior who had just reached Nirvana!
Is this the difference between the chosen ones and the unaffiliated cultivators who have reached the heavens?
Wan Bo was not convinced!
At that moment, he suddenly took a deep breath, and his entire body suddenly became enormous.
Special secret technique, imitating the laws of heaven and earth.
It wasn't Wan Bo's own creation, but rather a serendipitous encounter he once had.
When he unleashed this secret technique, his strength tripled!
He once inadvertently leaked his information, which allowed the Three Tribulations Heavenly Being he had offended to find him. At that time, he used this secret technique to escape, and even fought against the Three Tribulations Heavenly Being several times in this manner.
Now, he's going to capsize this damned warship and send it rolling into the space storm!
·
On the warship.
Wu Chan and the others were watching the battle.
They watched as the Zhong and Wu couple toyed with Wan Bo, and witnessed Wan Bo's raging anger almost burning him to ashes!
For a moment, Wu Chan and Feng Yan were dumbfounded.
They encountered Tongtian, and it was a tremendous struggle for them to have survived until now. Yet, Emperor Zhongdan and Emperor Wudou were able to be so resilient...
That's incredibly confident!
It's unbelievable.
Wu Chan hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Young Master Wu, are Seniors Zhong and Wu... really alright?"
Wu Dongxiao hadn't expected his two uncles to do this, but well...
He readily replied, "It's alright. Your uncle knows what he's doing."
Wu Chan's subconscious reaction was—does your Uncle Zhong even know what's going on? Doesn't he really need some advice?
Wu Dongxiao seemed to sense Wu Chan's thoughts and smiled, "Uncle Zhong trusts Uncle."
Wu Chan was stunned for a moment, then suddenly understood.
Given Wu Douhuang's feelings for Zhong Danhuang, the fact that he dared to do this meant he could ensure Zhong Danhuang's absolute safety. Zhong Danhuang was well aware of this, and thus happily let loose and "play around."
Wu Chan chuckled and continued watching the battle.
Although she was still a little scared, she was already trying to build up her courage.
Feng Yan paused for a moment, then gently took Wu Chan's hand.
Wu Chan's fingers trembled slightly, but she didn't move.
Seeing this, Wu Dongxiao chuckled and poured hot tea for his senior brother, saying, "Here, senior brother, this tea tastes even better when it's hot."
Xuan Bing picked up the tea and drank it, a smile appearing in his eyes.
Wu Dongxiao then poured tea for Feng Yan and Wu Chan, demonstrating his hospitality.
Wu Chan took a sip of hot tea, the rich aroma of which seeped into her heart, and she felt her emotions calm down considerably.
Then, the group continued to watch the game.
However, at that moment, Wu Chan suddenly cried out in surprise, and Feng Yan also showed a tense expression, clenching his fists.
They witnessed with their own eyes that the cymbals had transformed into a giant!
Although they didn't know what kind of secret technique it was, they could see that Wan Bo's aura had surged and was much stronger than before!
Even inside the warship, they could almost feel the oppressive aura emanating from Wan Bo.
It's suffocating.
Immediately afterwards, Wan Bo appeared at the bow of the ship with lightning speed, his arms outstretched, embracing the entire warship.
Even though Wu Shaogan had transformed the bow of his warship into countless sharp spikes, charging at Wan Bo at incredible speed, this time they failed to strike Wan Bo at all. Instead, they were blocked by a large palm, producing a crisp sound. Although the previous impacts had also failed to harm Wan Bo, he had used defensive artifacts to block them, not his own body to withstand the attacks. This time, however, it was a genuine block with the palm of his hand.
This shows that Wanbo's body became even harder after he transformed into a giant.
Even more terrifying, Wanbo, taking advantage of the momentum of blocking the impact, grabbed the long spikes with his palm and suddenly exerted force!
Just as he had wished, the entire warship was capsized!
At the same time, when Wan Bo unleashed his power, he used a small amount of the power of heaven and earth, and retreated extremely quickly. It was precisely because of this power of heaven and earth that a spatial storm appeared directly behind the warship, swallowing the warship up!
Wu Chan and the others had barely managed to regain their balance by gripping the deck with their feet after the warship capsized—thankfully, the warship's defensive shield had deflected Tongtian's energy, preventing it from penetrating and affecting the people inside—and now, they were actually witnessing the spatial storm right before their eyes!
The surroundings were a blur, with countless strange energies crisscrossing in all directions. Countless violent forces struck the warship, producing extremely dense and ear-piercing sounds that made people dizzy.
Within the spatial storm, there was an even more eerie sense of separation. Even just a glance felt like one's body was being sliced open—but upon closer inspection, they realized they weren't actually being sliced open; it was merely an illusion created by the spatial chaos.
If it weren't for their unwavering resolve and the warship's comprehensive defenses, even illusions... could kill.
·
Wu Chan and Feng Yan were both greatly shocked.
We've been caught in a spatial storm! What are we going to do?!
They instinctively looked at Wu Dongxiao.
This is the warship of Wu Dongxiao's two uncles; Wu Dongxiao should know more about it.
Then the engaged couple discovered that Wu Dongxiao remained calm and showed no signs of anxiety or unease.
Wu Chan and Feng Yan were somewhat relieved.
Wu Dongxiao let the warship tumble in the spatial storm, and laughed, "Don't worry, we'll be out soon."
Wu Chan and Feng Yan were not entirely at ease, but this did ease their tension a little.
·
Wu Dongxiao was right; the spatial storm was indeed terrifying. However, Wu Chan and Feng Yan quickly noticed that the deck beneath their feet suddenly extended outwards, expanding at a visible speed!
Indeed, the entire warship was no longer the small and exquisite vessel it once was, but had become a colossal behemoth.
Even more surprisingly, the warship shook a few times and quickly moved forward in a certain direction!
Each tremor causes it to move forward one step.
However, the people on the boat were not so comfortable.
Each forward movement produced a sound like iron nails scraping against glass, extremely sharp, almost piercing their eardrums, making their scalps tingle and giving them a strong sense of discomfort—sharper and more unpleasant than anything they had heard before.
Fortunately, each instance lasts only a very short time.
Unfortunately, the sound made Wu Chan and Feng Yan's heads even more dizzy, and their perception of the outside world became extremely dull.
Maybe five or six times, maybe seven or eight times.
Finally, when Wu Chan and Feng Yan looked up, the strange spatial energy around them disappeared, and everything returned to tranquility.
Wu Chan was almost moved to tears.
It's okay, it's really okay!
Very good!
This was also the first time Feng Yan had fallen into a spatial storm. At this moment, he sincerely felt that his experience was not rich enough, and decided to learn more from this crisis and turn it into his own resources.
He whispered a few words to Wu Chan.
Wu Chan nodded: "You're right."
The engaged couple took a deep breath, trying to calm themselves down.
They still have a long way to go.
Wu Dongxiao and Xuan Bing began observing their surroundings while in the spatial storm, enduring the noise to improve their experience.
What an unlucky guy.
They already knew that since he had fallen into the spatial rift, given Wu Dongxiao's luck, it was impossible for him not to fall into the spatial storm—whether it was an accident, a coincidence, or he was simply thrown in, he was bound to go in.
With such strong mental preparation, the two adapted quickly.
The noise was very stimulating to them, but compared to other cultivators at the same level, their tolerance was much stronger.
Wu Dongxiao even figured out a halberd technique from that chaotic energy.
What was it called again...?
Space...disorder?
However, one move is not enough. He should further study and refine it, and eventually create a complete set of secret techniques.
Xuan Bing's comprehension is slightly inferior to Wu Dongxiao's, but he has been adventuring with Wu Dongxiao for a long time and has also gained some slight understanding. However, it has not yet taken shape and should require more time for observation.
·
Zhong Cai had only intended to find an opening to assist his old man, Wu, in firing at Wan Bo, but the old man suddenly transformed and threw their warship into the spatial storm... which wasn't entirely unexpected.
He was also well aware of the unlucky kid's bad luck.
But there's nothing to fear, because the ancient city itself has a strong ability to weaken and resist spatial storms!
The ancient city had already evolved this ability long before it devoured the Wuze Ghost Fish Beast Core.
The ancient city later significantly enhanced its abilities, adding other new capabilities and feeding it rare and precious materials... Therefore, the ancient city is now much more resistant to spatial storms and can travel through them for a longer period of time.
Therefore, when the warship fell into the space storm, Zhong Cai did not even order the warship to react immediately, but simply let it use its own defenses to resist the energy of the space storm.
He himself held Wu Shaogan's hand, and they watched the storm side by side.
As the warship capsized, Zhong Cai threw herself into Wu Shaogan's arms, crying out, "Oh dear, I'm dizzy!"
Wu Shaogan hugged Zhong Cai tightly and said with a smile, "Why don't you open your eyes and take a look, Cai?"
Zhong Cai quietly lifted the eyelid of one eye.
Actually... his wife is currently holding him, with her feet dangling in the air.
The two were within the warship's defenses, but instead of tumbling along with it, they hovered in the air above the ship's roof, moving along with the tumbling vessel—similar to how the ship was actually encased in a giant, spherical protective shield, with the shield remaining a stationary "sphere" as the ship tumbled.
The scene was as if a transparent spherical dome was enclosing the two people, with them at the top of the dome and a small boat model constantly rolling beneath their feet.
But this means that they are actually very close to the space storm.
The chaotic spatial energy crashed down on them, but it couldn't penetrate the warship's protective shield at all. Instead, it allowed them to see the violent energy clearly.
As for the ear-piercing "scratching" sound caused by the interplay of space storms and protective shields...
Zhong took out two earmuffs.
He put one on himself and one on his old man's too.
This was made from a strange item that Zhong Cai obtained while drawing cards. It didn't undergo any special refining process; it was essentially just embedded in some kind of refining material and made into something resembling earmuffs.
Now, once the two of them put them on, all the noise from the outside world disappears.
I felt refreshed and invigorated.
Wu Shaogan smiled slightly at Zhong Cai and continued to comprehend the spatial energy.
These energies are extremely chaotic, as well as wild and powerful.
Wu Shaogan vaguely realized something.
Although it's not very obvious yet, if he contemplates it a few more times, he'll surely reap great rewards.
·
The couple let the warship roll for a while, and Zhong Cai received a telepathic message from the warship.
At this moment, the warship was already showing signs of damage. If no action was taken, it would be damaged by one percent in just a few breaths, and once this breach was opened, the rate of damage would accelerate.
Zhong Cai had almost tested the warship's defensive limits in the space storm, and immediately looked at Wu Shaogan.
Wu Shaogan happened to be looking over as well.
The couple smiled knowingly and began to maneuver the warship!
Zhong Cai controlled the warship to grow larger and took out a large amount of refining materials to integrate into the warship, stabilizing its hull so that if it could not get out in time, it could be repaired in the instant of destruction.
Wu Shaogan used his teleportation ability to make the warship move quickly in the same direction—the space storm not only contained complex energy, but also caused the direction to deviate, so to get out, one had to be fast and absolutely could not make any mistakes!
With Wu Shaogan's abilities, there was naturally no mistake.
Zhong Cai was also very adept at controlling the ship's movements.
After about another breath, the warship seemed to relax a bit.
All around was quiet.
They got out safely.
After the warship detached, the spatial storm, which had been stirred up by it, did not disappear quickly but instead spread outwards.
However, Zhong and Wu had already anticipated this possibility, so they once again skillfully manipulated the ship, causing it to teleport multiple times in succession, completely escaping the possibility of being swept away by the space storm again.
Furthermore, with each teleportation, the ship expands several times over.
This was far from the actual size of a warship, but it was hundreds of times larger than the original small warships.
As it expanded, the shape of the ship changed time and again.
It's gradually changing, like a giant fortress!
At first glance, it looked countless times heavier than before!
And this fortress has already located the place where the enormous cymbals are.
Impact! Bombing!
·
After Wanbo finally capsized the warship and threw it into the spatial storm, he couldn't see the scene clearly due to the chaotic energy, but he could vaguely see the shadow of the warship, which was constantly rolling and struggling in the storm.
He felt a little better after that.
But immediately, he frowned again.
He would certainly feel relieved if these people died in the spatial storm, but wouldn't that little girl among them, who possessed the most precious treasure he needed, also be destroyed...?
No, wait.
Such treasures capable of withstanding lightning tribulations should not be destroyed in the spatial storm. However, they may be swept into other spatial rifts and enter other places after the storm ends.
This is very disadvantageous for him.
Wan Bo calmed down slightly and sensed something was wrong.
But now that things have come to this, what can he do...? A feeling of even greater frustration suddenly welled up in his heart.
But soon, Wan Bo realized that he had underestimated those people.
Before long, something burst out of the storm and was in front of him in the blink of an eye!
Wanbo's pupils contracted violently.
But soon, that thing disappeared?
Wanbo was incredulous, but he could only dodge away suddenly!
Unfortunately, it was too late. By the time the thing reached him, it had already transformed into an enormous form and slammed into him!
A terrifying force rushed towards him, and Wan Bo staggered backward, his face filled with disbelief.
Even though he had already used the secret technique of transformation, when the warship crashed into him, it felt exactly the same as before the transformation.
No, it shouldn't be like this!
Wanbo stretched out his arms and quickly reached forward to grab!
The warship shrank again with a "whoosh," passing through his arms, and then grew larger again in another direction!
Wanbo turned around at lightning speed!
However, he was still hit by the warship and still suffered that terrifying impact force!
This was repeated again and again.
Wan Bo became increasingly astonished.
Despite his increased size, his speed has also increased.
Of course, his strength tripled, but that doesn't mean his speed also increased by that much. However, at the Tongtian level, even a slight increase in speed would ultimately lead to a surge in reaction speed.
But Wan Bo found that no matter how quick his reflexes were, he was still not as quick as the warship...
At the same time, he realized that he had suffered serious internal injuries.
Perhaps with his defensive capabilities, multiple impacts are nothing, especially now that his physical defense has improved.
But when the warship rammed, the cannon fire would hit the point of impact!
It's been like this every time he's attacked after transforming into a giant!
Wan Bo could see that the warship was operated by two juniors, one responsible for firing the cannons and the other for navigating.
But why are they so in sync? Every attack is timed perfectly!
Wanbo felt a lump of blood blocking his heart.
Since entering Tongtian, apart from that extremely rare time when he faced the Three Tribulations of Tongtian, Wan Bo had never experienced such a great setback...
However, it was precisely for this reason that his initial anger dissipated somewhat after he was repeatedly injured.
Wan Bo's previously congested and feverish mind gradually cooled down a bit.
He couldn't just regard those two boys as Nirvana; they were too skilled at maneuvering this strange warship and already possessed a certain ability to contend with Tongtian.
Even if he were not in a spatial rift, he would still have the upper hand after mobilizing the energy of heaven and earth. However, as long as these two kids don't come out, he still won't be able to do anything to them.
Wanbo seemed to be retreating.
But he was still not satisfied.
The warship was like a tortoise shell; he couldn't break it, yet he desperately wanted to extract the "tender tortoise meat" inside.
After chasing for so long, this is the best opportunity yet. Are we really going to miss it...?
Greed and desire intertwined in Wan Bo's mind.
Wanbo's expression changed rapidly, showing immense struggle.
But at that very moment, a terrifying pulling force suddenly appeared on both sides!
Wanbo reacted instinctively, attacking from both sides simultaneously!
However, the powerful attacks coming from both sides instantly put Wan Bo in great danger!
Two opposing forces were pulling him, as if trying to tear him in two!
Wan Bo broke out in a cold sweat and suddenly realized that while he was constantly dealing with the warship, two figures had silently appeared beside him—they approached him in the extremely brief moment when he was distracted!
How could this be!
However, when the strong are fighting to the death, they should not be distracted.
Even if Wan Bo was only controlled by greed and the time and effort he had spent, causing a flood of distracting thoughts to arise in him for a moment, resulting in a blank reaction...
Wu Shaogan seized this opportunity.
Although Zhong Cai was not as good as Wu Shaogan in seizing opportunities, his understanding of Wu Shaogan and their tacit understanding were first-rate. When Wu Shaogan made a move, Zhong Cai immediately followed suit.
Wu Shaogan drove the two mutated dragon-armored soldiers away from the warship, trapping Wan Bo on the left and right.
Zhong Cai then aimed at Wanbo, concentrating thousands upon thousands of cannon shots on Wanbo!
If Wan Bo hadn't used his transformation technique, and if the two mutated dragon armor soldiers had controlled him, Zhong Cai's firing would have covered Gu Yuan and Gu Zhong, easily injuring them as well.
But now that Wanbo has grown bigger, the firepower can be directed only at him!
Following Wu Shaogan's thoughts, Gu Yuan and Gu Zhong leaped up and threw a punch at Wan Bo's back as the artillery fire focused on him!
After the two mutated dragon-armored soldiers unleashed their punches, they scattered and disappeared. Wan Bo was momentarily distracted and was forced to stop and defend himself from the barrage of artillery fire. At that moment, the space behind him was stirred up by the bombardment of Gu Yuan and Gu Zhong, forming a spatial storm.
This is truly "an eye for an eye"!
No matter how enormous Wanbo's body was, it was swallowed up by an even larger spatial storm at this moment.
Gu Yuan and Gu Zhong returned to the warship and quietly stood guard beside Zhong Wufu once again.
·
Everything happened too fast after we emerged from the space storm.
Wu Chan and Feng Yan were dumbfounded.
In such a short time... Wan Bo, who had transformed into a giant and whose aura was clearly many times stronger, fell into the trap set by the two seniors, Zhong and Wu, even more easily than before and was swallowed up by the spatial storm.
That was a bit hasty.
Improving one's strength should have been a brilliant move, but it seems to have turned into a foolish one for the two seniors, Zhong and Wu.
The engaged couple nervously watched the commotion unfold.
Inside, a giant was vaguely visible, struggling, its arms suddenly reaching out and waving, as if it were trying its best to fight against the violent energy and tear open a way to escape.
But it's still a long way off.
At least they could smell the blood.
They also seemed to faintly hear the short, painful cry that Wanbo made when he could no longer bear it.
One can imagine how horrific the scene must have been in that spatial storm.
·
Wu Chan glanced at Wu Dongxiao.
Wu Dongxiao looked somewhat excited, but his attitude remained as casual and composed as before.
Wu Chan turned around and looked at Feng Yan.
That's good. Her fiancé is just as confused as she is.
These are the people who are on the same path.
·
At this moment, the warship was quiet.
All eyes were on the storm, but their expressions varied.
Wu Chan hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help herself and asked in a low, hesitant voice, "Shall we... do this now?"
Zhong Cai finally remembered that there were still guests on their boat.
Ah, I was just beating up the old-timer Tongtian with Lao Wu, and I got a little emotional, completely forgetting about Dongxiao's two new friends.
Zhong Cai turned to the girl who was forcibly calm and said with a smile, "Let's find a way out and leave here."
Wu Chan cautiously glanced again at Wan Bo, who was still struggling for his life.
Zhong Cai said with a smile, "Tongtian is indeed Tongtian. His current secret skill allows him to hold on for a while longer. If we stay here, and he really manages to get out, we'll probably have to fight for our lives."
So let's leave. Don't watch this show for too long and end up driving someone crazy.
Wu Chan suddenly realized what was going on and understood.
Indeed, once they leave the spatial rift, Wan Bo will be out. If he wants to hunt them down, it will depend on whether he can withstand the combined attack of several forces.
By then, even if he doesn't want to calm down, the vast, top-tier continent will calm him down.
Zhong Cai waved his hand.
Through actual mental manipulation, the warship, which had become enormous in preparation for colliding with Wanbo, was restored to its original, very small size.
Then, under Wu Shaogan's control, the warship began its return journey.
The mirror's search function is very sophisticated; it can remember the path to the future perfectly.
They haven't been in this spatial rift for too long; if they get back in time, the entrance shouldn't be closed yet...
Of course, if something unexpected happens and the entrance is already closed when the group returns, it's okay.
The mirror can help you find other routes.
·
Where Wu Dongxiao is, how could anything not go wrong?
The warship was traveling rapidly through the spatial rift, but it suddenly stopped after only traveling halfway.
Zhong Cai turned her head to the side, next to Wu Shaogan, looked in the mirror, and asked, "What's wrong?"
He actually saw it while he was talking.
The location of the exit, which had been shown on the mirror, suddenly disappeared.
Zhong Cai blinked: "Huh?"
Wu Shaogan ruffled Zhong Cai's hair and smiled slightly, "The adventure has been extended."
Zhong Cai turned around slowly and glanced at Wu Dongxiao.
Wu Dongxiao approached cautiously, asking even more cautiously, "Uncle Zhong, Uncle, something happened?"
Zhong Cai nodded, patted Wu Dongxiao's shoulder helplessly, and said, "We have to take a different approach."
Wu Dongxiao: "..."
Xuan Bing, who was already used to it, remained silent.
Wu Chan and Feng Yan, who had only known Wu Dongxiao for a short time and were not yet aware of his bad luck, were puzzled as to why the atmosphere had suddenly become so heavy...
But the two of them understood that they needed to change direction.
Wu Chan asked cautiously, "Is there some trouble?"
Zhong Cai held up one finger and said with a smile, "Just a little bit."
Wu Dongxiao secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing that Zhong Danhuang looked relaxed, Wu Chan felt slightly relieved.
It seems like it's not a big deal...?
·
It wasn't a big deal, but a lot happened.
Saying it's a lot isn't entirely accurate. All I can say is that while the battle with Wanbo didn't trigger many spatial storms, the spatial storms appeared quite... frequently on the way back.
It's really dense.
On average, a space storm will occur every certain period of time, ranging from three to five breaths to more than ten breaths.
Moreover, they appear and disappear unpredictably, from all directions.
Even after the warship had flown a distance, a spatial storm would suddenly appear behind it, intending to ambush and devour it from behind!
It's absurd... well, you could say that, since spatial storms are inherently silent.
But if we're not being too far-fetched... although the energy in the spatial rifts is chaotic, most of the time it's just a mess everywhere, and it wouldn't form a storm so frequently.
·
Wu Chan and Feng Yan were truly shocked.
They had already witnessed the energy of the space storm, but they never expected that the two seniors, Zhong and Wu, could maneuver the warship to dodge it with such agility—going back and forth so many times, they never fell into it even once!
The two had a guess that the two seniors must have some treasure that could detect the appearance of the spatial storm. But even if they could detect it, it would take a lot of mental effort to maneuver the warship to avoid it. If they were not careful, they would not only be physically and mentally exhausted, but their minds would also become confused due to being too tense!
The engaged couple both felt that the abilities of the two seniors, Zhong and Wu, were truly extraordinary.
But then they thought about all the achievements the couple had made, and it seemed... that it wasn't so abnormal after all.
The two of them sincerely believed that their two seniors would surely become incredibly powerful in the future.
Next, the two continued to admire the spectacular sight of countless spatial rifts appearing one after another.
·
Wu Chan and Feng Yan went from being shocked to gradually becoming numb. Now they stood quietly on the deck, silently counting in their minds.
—How many times has this been a space storm?
—The 193rd time.
So many times!
Wu Chan exhaled, shook her head, and regained her ability to breathe freely.
Numbness may exist, but there is still a feeling of suffocation.
But... I don't know how much longer it will be before we can get out.
·
Wu Dongxiao and Xuan Bing leaned against the railing.
At first, Wu Dongxiao was interested in observing more space storms, trying to glean some insights from their characteristics.
Indeed, he mastered the second move of the halberd technique, Spatial Concealment.
But as his experience dwindled, as he witnessed the spatial storms occurring more and more frequently, and as he noticed his Uncle Zhong glancing back at him every now and then with a strange look in his eyes…
Wu Dongxiao scratched his face awkwardly.
Well, based on what he figured out himself, his uncle had probably changed the flight path of the warship seven or eight times already...
Although it wasn't very obvious, Wu Dongxiao's instincts told him that there must have been at least that much.
Wu Dongxiao felt quite nervous.
His bad luck seemed to be further amplified within the spatial rift, to the point that his uncle's search for a path within the spatial rift had turned into a search for an opening in a spatial storm...
This is a bit... ahaha...
