Chapter 161: Escape from Death
In Mingyue Pce, the faces of the people witnessing the sudden change turned somewhat pale. In the instant they sensed something was wrong, following Li Fan''s instructions, they prepared to activate the random teleportation nes on their bodies.
However, they were astonished to find that this vital lifeline had lost its effect at this moment.
As the entire Mingyue Lake, akin to a toy, was being pulled upward towards the sky, Su Xiaomei, Xiao Heng, and the others had extremely unpleasant expressions.
"This kind of power is that of a Dao Integration Immortal Sage!" Suddenly, fear and confusion filled their hearts.
But for what? Just to gain a few contribution points?
The small Mingyue Pce couldn''t resist even Soul Transformation cultivators, let alone a Dao Integration Immortal Sage personally taking action.
However, despite their emotions, in front of a Dao Integration Immortal Sage, they could only be like ants, utterly powerless.
Helplessly, they watched as the entire Mingyue Pce rose higher and higher, and they themselves, like turtles in a jar, had nowhere to escape.
"Younger sister, is this the great fortune you mentioned?" Yin Yuetin''s face turned ghastly pale, and she looked at her sister with disbelief.
Yin Yuezhen looked bewildered, at a loss for words.
Then, as if recalling something, she quickly said, "Don''t worry, Senior will definitely make a move! It will surely turn bad luck into good..."
Before she could finish speaking, a loud noise came from outside the Mingyue Pce.
Everyone looked and saw a huge mushroom cloud rising, centered on the Mingyue Pce, expanding rapidly. In the blink of an eye, it covered the entire Mingyue Lake.
In the sky, the one who initiated the explosion, Li Fan, had a pained expression on his face.
Originally, the nned Devouring Startling Spirit Formation was only meant to cover the range of the Mingyue Pce, intending to dy the arrival of a powerful enemy.
But unexpectedly, the unknown Dao Integration expert didn''t directlyunch an attack. Instead, he wiped out the entire Mingyue Lake.
It seemed like he wanted to take them somewhere.
With no choice, Li Fan had to spend several times the original cost to expand the self-detonation''s scope.
"It''s fine. As long as we can escape this time, we still gained something."
Since he chose to take action, Li Fan no longer hesitated. Carefully taking out a ck spike from his bosom, he aimed it at the silver thread in the sky and threw it forcefully.
At the moment of the explosion of the Devouring White Mist, the silver thread seemed to encounter a natural enemy and subconsciously contracted for a moment. However, immediately afterward, it ignored the white mist touching it and instead wound even tighter around the Mingyue Lake.
In the sky, faint thunder-like sounds could be heard.
"Devouring White Mist? Hmph, your Mingyue Pce is the head of all evils, disrupting my grand n. Even if it costs me some lifespan, I must capture you."
"If I don''t thoroughly deal with you, it will be difficult to dispel the hatred in my heart!"
Before the words fell, a ck radiance was pierced into the silver thread.
"Dimension Cleaving Nail? Interesting."
The radiance of the silver thread dimmed. Then, another ck spike shot into the sky.
"Go!" Li Fan''s voice sounded timely.
Without needing Li Fan''s reminder, Su Xiaomei and the others, who sensed that the random teleportation nes were once again usable, immediately activated the teleportation formation.
One after another, radiant shes urred, and the people from the Mingyue Pce disappeared consecutively.
Continuous explosion sounds echoed from below.
In an instant, the Mingyue Pce turned into ruins.
Above the ruins, a ck shadow slowly appeared.
His face showed no signs of impatience; instead, it carried a yful expression, like a cat teasing a mouse.
"Escape? Where can you escape to?" The ck-robed cultivator lightly waved his whisk, and in the air ahead, several thin threads suddenly appeared out of nowhere, extending in different directions from this point.
"Little Foundation Establishmentte stage cultivator, you are truly ignorant of life and death. I''ll capture you first."
The ck-robed cultivator extended his right hand, pinching one of the silver threads between his fingers, and slowly exerted force.
At the point where the silver thread disappeared, the space suddenly shattered and became blurry.
Li Fan''s silhouette slowly appeared.
At this moment, he was looking up, seemingly gazing at the sky. There was a shocked expression on his face as if even his thoughts were frozen at this moment.
His body, along with the surrounding scene, was gradually being pulled back to the ck-robed cultivator.
Just as Li Fan was about to bepletely captured, the movements of the ck-robed cultivator suddenly stagnated.
The mockery on his face vanished without a trace, reced by a gradually serious expression as he stared at the ground below.
Just now, therge amount of detonated Devouring White Mist did not return to the White Mist Barrier that separated the various provinces as it should have.
Instead, it descended to the ground.
Then, like flowing water, it continuously infiltrated underground.
In just a moment, arge amount of Devouring White Mist was devoured by the earth.
This abnormal scene made the ck-robed cultivator, who had lived for thousands of years, involuntarily furrow his brows.
"What is this..."
Suddenly, a sense of unease surged in his heart. He calcted continuously with his left hand, and his expression kept changing.
Clearly, even for the ck-robed cultivator, this mysterious event was extremely difficult to calcte.
His aura fluctuated, wrinkles appeared slowly on his face, and strands of white hair began to show. Blood flowed from his eyes.
After a while, the ck-robed cultivator suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood.
Then, he shouted loudly, "Devouring Rebirth Formation?"
"Old Blue Feather, do you still want to seek longevity even after death!?"
A trembling sense of fear surged from the depths of his soul, and the ck-robed cultivator instinctively had the thought of fleeing.
But immediately after, he looked towards the direction of Yuandao Heavenly City.
"No wonder these years, the usually peaceful Yuandao Province has been full of ughter, with countless cultivators dying..."
"My Blue Feather Legacy n also went unexpectedly smoothly. It turns out I was also manipted."
"Arrogance, too much arrogance!"
The ck-robed cultivator gritted his teeth, "How could I let you have your way!"
At this point, he no longer cared about the people from the Mingyue Pce. Letting go of the silver thread, he rushed towards the direction of Yuandao Heavenly City.
...
"Tru..."
The frozen thoughts gradually recovered, and Li Fan almost uttered the word "Truth."
However, the pulling force from the other side had already disappeared, and Li Fan, who had returned to safety, forcibly swallowed the word.
"So, this is a Dao Integration Immortal Sage..."
Li Fan''s face turned dark. All of his so-called preparations were nothing but jokes in the face of absolute strength disparity.
Just now, it was undoubtedly the most dangerous moment since Li Fan crossed. He could sense that something had happened around him, but his soul was frozen and he was unable to make effective reactions or thoughts.
If the ck-robed cultivator hadn''t been startled away, Li Fan might really have been finished.
"Just prompting more than five hundred Foundation Establishment cultivators to appear prematurely directly attracts an expert of this level..."
"No, there were still quite a few more who were captured along with the Mingyue Pce just now."
"There are probably many who imitated my breakthrough loaning."
"So, is it because there''s a sudden surge in Foundation Establishment cultivators?"
