As the Universe Turns - Chapter 455
Chapter 455 Disperse
“You … what’s wrong with you?”
Seeing that his expression suddenly changed, Luo Die presumed that he must have fallen into fear before. However, she didn’t know what he was most afraid of in the depths of his heart. It was the person he was trying to save … Was he unable to save him in the end?
“Nothing …”
Xiao Chen shook his head. He didn’t know why he had such a strange idea. Master should be in Xuanqing Sect right now. He thought too much and said, “This place is strange. Be careful. Let’s find someone else first.”
“Yes.”
Luo Die nodded and walked behind him, searching for traces of other people. Even if everyone entered the Heart Demon Illusion, they should still be nearby.
“Senior Ghost?”
Xiao Chen looked around. Finally, a figure flew over from afar. It was Daoist Gui. He must have walked out of his fear.
Seeing that Xiao Chen and Luo Die were fine, Daoist Gui was a little surprised. He thought that the two of them were trapped in an illusion, so as soon as he came out, he immediately wanted to find Xiao Chen and Luo Die.
“Are you all right?”
“No big deal.”
Xiao Chen shook his head and looked into the distance, “Find the others first.”
“Yes.”
Daoist Gui nodded slightly and immediately searched around. After about an hour, he found the other people. Now, they were almost all here, except for Hantian Gu.
“Where did Han Tiangu go?”
The Underworld Fire Evil God looked around, but there was no trace of Han Tiangu. The thing that he and Daolord Impermanence feared the most was undoubtedly the time more than three hundred years ago when they had their hearts taken away by the twelve-fingered Heart Demon. But what was the thing that Han Tiangu feared the most?
At this moment, in an endless forest, there was a thick layer of fog that could not be dispersed. Hantian Gu held a sword in his right hand and performed an incantation gesture in his left. He carefully walked through the forest. Even now, he did not know that he had fallen into the illusion of the heart demon.
“Who is it!”
The fog in front of him dispersed a little and a figure appeared faintly. Hantian Gu immediately became alert. However, the further he went, the more familiar the figure became. In the end, he was left in place.
“Master …”
Han Tiangu stood there in a daze. He looked at the person not far ahead in disbelief. She was a woman who was as shining as the moon. Her body was bound by tree branches. Her clothes had long since become weathered and scattered. Her long black hair was hanging down, barely covering her body. On the ground in front of her was a sharp immortal sword. It was her sword.
“Hantian …”
The woman raised her head. She was Han Tiangu’s master. She was known as the Sword Immortal Ruoshui. She was once the most famous Sword Immortal in the Cold Heaven Kingdom, but she didn’t know why she wanted to enter the God Devil Tomb that she knew had no entrance or exit, and still came to such a terrifying place as the Forbidden Area.
“Don’t come over …”
At this moment, the aura of the Sword Immortal Ruoshui was already very weak. Looking at his disciple who had grown up not far away, he slowly said, “Cold Heavens … you shouldn’t have come in. Hurry up and leave … quickly leave this place …”
“No … Master, what happened back then? Where are the others? What exactly happened to you?”
“Let’s go … get out of here …”
“Master, I’m here to find you. Wait … I’m coming to save you!”
Han Tiangu’s face turned deathly pale as he forcefully swung his sword to cut off the vine branch in front of him. However, the vine branch grew more and more dense, and no matter how hard it was to cut it, it would never end.
“Leave … Hurry up … Hurry up …”
After Jian Xian Ruoshui finished her last sentence, the branches and vines that wrapped around her body seemed to have turned into terrifying beasts and swallowed her up.
“Master … Master!”
Han Tiangu’s face was shocked and he rushed forward desperately. However, at this moment, a hand behind him forcefully pressed down on his shoulder, followed by a loud and powerful voice, “Fellow Daoist Han!”
The surroundings changed in an instant. Han Tiangu woke up from his shock and realized that it was an illusion just now. At this moment, there was actually a cliff under his feet.
“This …”
Han Tiangu’s face was pale and he retreated back repeatedly. Behind him, Ji Wuyan and the others watched him remain silent. Wuchang Daojun said, “We all entered the illusion of the devil just now. What did you see?”
“I…”
Thinking back to the scene in the illusion just now, Han Tiangu was still a little shocked. Master was wrapped around the branches and vines, and those branches and vines turned into terrifying beasts that swallowed Master. Could it be that the depths of this forbidden zone were not just the twelve-fingered Heart Demon …
“Nothing.”
In the end, Han Tiangu shook his head and looked at the crowd. “I wonder what kind of danger you will encounter next. Be careful,” he said.
Everyone was silent. They had just experienced the Heart Demon Illusion, and what they saw was different. At this moment, they already had their own thoughts.
At this moment, Xiao Chen suddenly sensed a trace of murderous intent. This trace of murderous intent was hidden so deeply that even the ghost daoists and Wuchang Daojun and the others were unable to detect it. This trace of murderous intent originated from immortal bones …
Xiao Chen’s heartbeat gradually accelerated. He knew that Boneless had always wanted to kill him along the way. He also wanted to find a chance to get rid of this big problem in his heart. Previously, he had never felt such intense killing intent. This time, Boneless might really be planning to attack him …
“What’s wrong with you?”
Luo Die noticed his anomaly and asked in a secret language.
“Don’t look back.”
Xiao Chen’s expression slowly returned to normal as he whispered, “Boneless is going to attack me. I can feel the killing intent on his body …”
Luo Die was slightly stunned. She did not look back and whispered, “Could it be … that Bone Formation isn’t the real mole?”
Xiao Chen’s eyebrows furrowed slightly. He did not immediately reply. His divine sense did not dare to lean backwards. At this moment, his Boneless Eyes were cold. Obviously, he had a true killing intent. However, other than Xiao Chen, no one else had discovered it here.
“Everyone is fine now. Take advantage of the darkness and leave this place as soon as possible.” At this moment, the ghost Taoist turned around and looked at the crowd.
It was not dark yet, so the mountains here were too strange. Naturally, it was not appropriate to stay overnight. Without any objections, everyone immediately went forward to find a way to leave the mountain before dark and find a place to live.
Along the way, the twilight was getting darker and darker. When the last ray of light was engulfed by the night, everyone finally left the previous mountain and arrived at another deep mountain.
“Right here, find a place to rest.”
Daoist Ghost and Wuchang Daojun walked at the front, with the two of them leading the way. The people behind them followed closely. After walking for about an incense stick of time, the mountain suddenly trembled. The tremor became fiercer and fiercer, as if something was about to rush out of the ground.
“Steady!”
The Ghost Daoist swept his gaze across his body and covered his entire body with a layer of True Qi. The rest of them immediately circulated their True Qi to protect their bodies. However, the shockwaves became more and more intense. Stones continuously pounded towards the crowd. For a moment, the scene was extremely chaotic.
“Get out of here, let’s go!”
Wuchang Daojun immediately made up his mind and flew forward.
However, not only did the mountain tremble, many spatial cracks suddenly appeared in mid-air. This time, it came too quickly, and no one was able to react. By the time they reacted, they had already been sucked into different spatial cracks.
“Luo Die!”
Xiao Chen stretched out his hand to grab Luo Die. However, the spatial tearing force was too strong, and it immediately sucked Luo Die into it. He was also unable to escape and was sucked into another spatial crack.
After an unknown amount of time, he felt as if his entire body was about to fall to the ground. It was as if he was being chased by Wuji Shangren and fell into a white bone abyss. He didn’t know where he had fallen to this time, but he was afraid that it was much more serious than last time.
“Luo Die … Luo Die?”
Xiao Chen subconsciously shouted a few times, but there was not a single response. There was only a deathly silence in the surroundings. After a long time, there was still not a single sound. He could finally conclude that he and Luo Die had fallen into a different spatial rift and dispersed from the crowd.
