While repairing his physical injuries, Wang Fan pondered his next move.
Without the assistance of Lieyan and Yanbatian's team, their next challenge against the false god and his minions will be even greater.
The cave was so quiet that only the faint breathing of the group could be heard.
Wang Fan slowly opened his eyes, his gaze filled with determination.
He knew in his heart that, given everyone's current state, their chances of fighting against the other false gods were slim.
After much deliberation, he decided to take the risk and use the divine fragments he had obtained from killing the Skeleton Demon Lord.
The fragment of divine essence lay quietly in his palm, radiating a soft and mysterious light, like an inexhaustible source of power.
Wang Fan took a deep breath, cleared his mind of distractions, and pressed the fragment of divine essence close to his chest.
In an instant, a strange and powerful force, like a surging undercurrent, directly penetrated his skin and flowed into his body.
Without any buffer or guidance, the impact of this force was exceptionally fierce.
Wang Fan felt as if countless steel needles were piercing his entire body at the same time, and every inch of muscle and every bone was enduring unbearable pain.
But he gritted his teeth, kept his eyes tightly closed, and large beads of sweat rolled down his forehead.
There was only one firm thought in my mind: to break through, I must break through!
As the power of the divine fragments continued to flow in, his physical body began to undergo astonishing changes.
The bones made a "crackling" sound as they continuously reorganized and strengthened, becoming as hard as steel and gleaming with a metallic luster.
The muscles were also expanding rapidly, each fiber seemingly infused with boundless vitality, brimming with explosive power.
The women noticed something was off about Wang Fan and turned to look at him with concern.
Qin Xiaoxuan looked worried and said anxiously in a soft voice, "Wang Fan... he'll be alright, won't he?"
Hua Nianci shook her head slightly, her eyes full of worry: "I don't know either, but seeing how much pain he's in, it seems he's going through an extremely difficult transformation."
During this painful baptism, Wang Fan not only had his physical body strengthened, but a faint divine power also quietly grew within him.
Although this divine power is weak, it contains a power of rules that transcends the mundane.
It was as if a door to a higher level of power had been opened.
After an unknown amount of time, the violent power finally subsided and was successfully absorbed by Wang Fan's body.
Wang Fan slowly opened his eyes, his eyes sparkling with excitement and confidence.
He gently swung his fist, and a sharp whistling sound immediately filled the air. The powerful feeling of strength made the corners of his mouth involuntarily turn up.
At this moment, he had not yet fully mastered this newly acquired power.
However, the breakthrough in his physical body and the possession of that trace of divine power undoubtedly gave him more confidence when facing the false god and his minions.
Just as Wang Fan was immersed in the joy of his improved strength.
He keenly sensed that several powerful auras were rapidly approaching their location.
These auras were powerful and malevolent, with some being comparable to, or even stronger than, the Skeleton Demon Lord.
Wang Fan was startled, thinking to himself, "Could it be another false god?"
He dared not delay any longer, and hurriedly turned to look at the women, saying solemnly, "Listen to me, everyone, a powerful enemy is approaching, and they are all very strong. We must leave here immediately!"
Upon hearing this, a hint of panic flashed across the women's faces.
But their long experience of adventuring with Wang Fan quickly calmed them down, and they obeyed his commands.
Wang Fan carefully led the group toward another direction of the cave.
The cave was dark, damp, and rugged. The group trudged forward, trying not to make too much noise.
However, those powerful auras followed closely, getting closer and closer.
"Wang Fan, they seem to be catching up!" Qin Xiaoxuan said nervously in a low voice, her keen senses also detecting the approaching danger.
Wang Fan nodded solemnly; he could sense that the other party was moving extremely fast.
If they are caught, given that the women are not yet fully recovered, their chances of survival are slim.
Just then, a fork in the road suddenly appeared ahead.
After a moment's thought, Wang Fan pointed to the passage on the left and said, "Let's go this way; maybe we can shake them off."
Without hesitation, everyone followed Wang Fan and turned into the passage on the left.
The passage was even narrower, and cold water droplets seeped from the walls from time to time.
The drops fell on everyone, making the atmosphere even more tense.
But those few auras still followed closely, showing no sign of being shaken off.
"Damn it!" Wang Fan cursed inwardly; the situation was even more troublesome than he had imagined.
He knew that if things continued like this, everyone would be in dire straits.
Wang Fan abruptly stopped, turned around to look at the crowd, his eyes firm and unwavering: "Everyone go first, I'll stay here and hold them off!"
Upon hearing this, the women were all startled and voiced their objections.
Qin Xiaoxuan's eyes reddened with anxiety: "No, Wang Fan, we can't leave you behind! We'll go together!"
Hua Nianci quickly added, "Yes, we'll face it together. If all else fails, we'll fight!"
The sisters, Su Yaqi and Su Yalin, gripped their weapons tightly, showing no sign of backing down.
Looking at the women, Wang Fan felt a surge of emotion, but he knew this was not the time for sentimental feelings.
He said with a serious expression, "Listen to me, the enemy is powerful. If we all go together, none of us will escape."
"I've just broken through to the next level, so I can hold out for a while. You guys go first and find a safe place to hide. I'll come find you once I've gotten away!"
Although the women were extremely reluctant to part with him, they also knew that what Wang Fan said was absolutely right.
Xiao Meng bit her lip, tears welling up in her eyes, and said, "Brother, you must come back alive. We're waiting for you!"
Wang Fan nodded slightly, a relieved smile appearing on his face: "Don't worry, I will definitely come to find you. Let's go!"
The women then continued running forward along the passage, turning back every few steps.
Wang Fan watched their figures disappear at the end of the passage, then quickly slipped into a corner.
The location here is relatively secluded, with many protruding rocks and jagged stones around, which can provide some cover.
He concealed his aura to the extreme, like a hunter hidden in the darkness, quietly waiting for the enemy to arrive.
Wang Fan tried his best to stay calm, his mind racing as he considered different strategies.
He knew full well that the enemy he was about to face was powerful, and that the slightest mistake could lead to utter ruin.
Before long, those powerful auras grew stronger, and accompanied by heavy footsteps, a group of figures appeared in Wang Fan's field of vision.
The leader was a tall man in a black robe, his face hidden in the shadow of his hood.
All that could be seen were a pair of eyes emitting an eerie green light, exuding a chillingly evil aura.
Behind him were several people dressed in black robes, each radiating a powerful sense of oppression.
