Chapter 498: Going Against the Current
As soon as her feet touched the edge of the seemingly invisible space crack, the surrounding space seemed to come alive, twisting and pulling, forming tiny ripples.
But just as Luo Li said, the violent aura did not turn into actual damage. It only made their bodies feel a brief tearing sensation at the moment of crossing, followed by a sudden sense of relief.
Lan Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up, and she pulled her legs back from the crack, looking back and smiling, "It's no problem, it's just a little uncomfortable at first."
Luo Li pulled her out by her arm, nodded with a smile, "Okay, let's go, go back and tell them, and we can leave here."
Although I didn't find the Chaos Jade fragment...
Luo Li looked at the sky with a gloomy look as it was getting closer and closer to them. The sky was filled with a black storm and could change at any time. However, it was a blessing to be able to leave here safely.
Lan Xiaoxiao and the others nodded excitedly, and they didn't expect it to be so smooth.
The group returned to where the team was staying and told everyone else this was the best news they had received in recent times.
Cheers instantly erupted in the temporary camp, and everyone's eyes were shining with excitement.
It seemed as if even the air around them had become warm and lively. In the light of the fire, smiling faces intertwined into a warm and touching picture, frozen in this secret journey that was about to end.
Luo Li spoke calmly, calming down the overly excited crowd and saying, "Alright, everyone, don't waste time, let's go over now."
Looking at the space crack that was only three minutes away, the sense of crisis in everyone's hearts almost disappeared.
"good!"
Luo Li, Bei Mingyu and the others turned around and said, "Follow me."
However, before they had taken a few steps, something unusual happened, and the ground suddenly shook with the most violent force it had experienced in a while.
The secret realm collapsed rapidly from the edge of the other side towards this side, like a scene of the end of the world.
In the center of the secret realm in the distance, a crimson light shot up into the sky, mixed with two familiar auras of Luo Li.
A very familiar one is the Chaos Jade Fragment.
The other one was the aura of power from the snake-like monster that was still conscious when he first entered the secret realm.
And that direction was also the direction where the snake-like monster finally went.
Lan Qingqing steadied herself, "The altar and sacrificial formation are in that direction!"
Luo Li gritted her teeth and shouted, "Leave immediately!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the others seemed to wake up from a dream. On the violently shaking ground, they madly rolled and crawled towards the direction of the space crack.
They directly passed by Luo Li and others who were still standing there, and someone even knocked Bai Yueke down without even looking back.
Luo Li's eyebrows didn't even move. This was human nature. As long as their own interests and lives were not involved, they could respect her and Bei Mingyu and the others.
But once it is involved, they will become arrogant like they are now.
She could understand these people's thoughts, but it was disrespectful.
Lan Xiaoxiao cursed, "Who is that?"
She used her spiritual power to help Bai Yueke up, "Are you okay?"
Bai Yueke shook her head and said, "I'm fine."
She glanced worriedly at the direction the crowd was heading. "The collapse is too fast. The space crack can only hold three people at a time..."
Luo Li patted her shoulder and said, "Just go past them."
Bai Yueke was stunned. "Is it okay?"
Luo Li shrugged, "Why not?"
Bei Mingyu and Yue Hanchuan curled their lips and revealed a malicious smile, "Yeah, there's nothing wrong with that."
As soon as they finished speaking, the two of them released extremely powerful spiritual power almost at the same time. In just a moment, they passed the others and teleported in front of those who were running madly.
The earthquake was so violent that some of the people couldn't even stand steadily, so they didn't run very far.
They were a little crazy when they saw Yue Hanchuan and the other man falling in front of them.
But when they saw Luo Li and the others following closely behind, the emotions in their eyes immediately disappeared.
Can't beat him.
As Luo Li and the others' feet touched the ground, their bodies became a little unsteady, but they looked very calm and didn't seem panicked at all.
Luo Li raised her hand, "Let's go, get out of here!"
Yue Hanchuan and the others nodded heavily, "Okay!"
But after a moment, after taking a few steps, Luo Li suddenly stopped.
Sensing the aura of the Chaos Jade Fragment getting closer and closer behind him and about to approach here, he estimated the speed of the secret realm's collapse and realized it would not happen in a short time.
Therefore, she decided to look back.
Luo Li stopped, her expression firm as she said to Yue Hanchuan and the others, "You go first, I'll cover your rear."
Bei Mingyu knew Luo Li had her own little secrets, but they never delved into them. They just said, "Be careful and meet up with us as soon as possible!"
Luo Li smiled and nodded, "Don't worry! I'll be back soon."
As she spoke, she turned around and rushed against the team. Yue Hanchuan and the others watched Luo Li's back with concern as she disappeared into the crowd.
Then they gritted their teeth and continued to rush towards the end of the space crack.
A Li, we are waiting for you.
Come back as soon as possible.
On the other side, Ming Qingzhu looked at Luo Li who was leaving against the crowd and knew that his chance had come.
She took advantage of the others not paying attention, suddenly left the team, and followed Luo Li's back.
The moonlight was dim and the crowd surged like a tide. Luo Li's figure appeared particularly firm in the retrograde light and shadow.
Her steps were light and decisive, and she easily passed through the crowd with each step without bumping into anyone.
Ming Qingzhu took advantage of the gaps in the crowd and followed quietly, with a complex light flashing in his eyes - an inexplicable excitement, confusion about Luo Li's behavior and a hint of imperceptible jealousy.
The dim light in the secret realm cast a shadow on the two figures, one in front and one behind, lengthening their lonely outlines.
Ming Qingzhu's heartbeat quickened as the distance shortened. She seemed to be able to hear the undercurrent surging in her blood, which was out of tune with the hustle and bustle around her.
Luo Li suddenly stopped, turned around, quickly glanced at a place behind her, and then continued to move forward.
The pause at that moment almost made Ming Qingzhu's heartbeat stop. She quickly dodged and hid in the shadows nearby. After making sure that she had not been noticed, she quietly followed again.
After a moment, Luo Li stopped.
She looked at the altar approaching in the air and narrowed her eyes. The target of this altar was the living people like them.
Are they to be used as sacrifices?
But there is such a strong scent of Chaos Jade inside.
It really made her feel strange.
Suddenly, the breath behind her made Luo Li narrow her eyes.
She said coldly, "Don't be a rat hiding in the sewer, get out of here!"
