I Might Be A Fake Cultivator - Chapter 502
Chapter 502: Ray of Neglected Light
Ling Ying, who was trailing in the last place, was the first to detect the commotion behind them. “Be… careful… guys…” she yelled in panic. “There… are… two… true… demons… behind… us…!”
Everyone glanced back upon hearing this. Then, they saw the two true demons face-planting into the ground.
Seeing this familiar scene, they were all left speechless. In fact, they wanted to look toward the sky in disbelief.
An Lin winced. Are these two true demons paying tribute to me?
After a fleeting glance, they all turned their attention back to the Realm Essence Crystals before them. They continued sprinting forward!
That’s right, who gave a sh*t about them being true demons?!
In this realm, it mattered little whether they were true demons or fake demons. Running quickly was all that mattered! The only way to snatch Realm Essence Crystals was to run quickly!
The two true demons, who collapsed onto the ground, were also stupefied. After stealing a glance at the two of them, their enemies actually didn’t say anything at all. They all turned around as if nothing had happened and continued sprinting.
“We’ve… been… ignored…” Kong Ge said slowly.
“Don’t worry, we’ll catch up to them in no time. The physical body of a true demon is extraordinarily impressive!” Zhong Lixing was brimming with confidence, and a boundless battle intent oozed from his body.
Just like that, the two of them spent a few minutes picking themselves up from the ground.
The gap between them and their enemies had widened by another dozen or so meters…
Zhong Lixing was unwilling to yield. He drew upon all his powers and broke into a sprint!
However, an extremely sluggish feeling enveloped his entire body. It was as though sluggishness was the true intent of this realm. Everything was stripped away, and everything was slowed down!
It seemed as though the advantage of Zhong Lixing and Kong Ge’s powerful physical bodies was completely suppressed. The distance between them and An Lin didn’t shrink a single bit.
To their relief, however, the distance between them and the jellyfish was continually shrinking…
After an hour, they were finally about to overtake the jellyfish.
“Heh… The speed of you guys is just so-so…”
It was as though Zhong Lixing had found a target to direct his frustrations toward, and so, he snickered loudly.
However, just as Zhong Lixing and Kong Ge were about to overtake the jellyfish, its tentacles suddenly wrapped around their bodies!
This “suddenly” was in fact extremely slow. However, the speed at which the true demons were moving meant that they were unable to dodge these tentacles.
Kong Ge shrieked in fright.
Zhong Lixing: “???”
“What’s this? You still want to battle with us here?” Zhong Lixing had a look of shock and confusion.
He didn’t expect the jellyfish to aid the people in front of it by sacrificing its own interest and holding them back through the means of battle.
“Please carry me along!” Ling Ying begged. “I can’t catch up to the people in front of me.
“I don’t know how to walk, and my tentacles can’t extend properly…” Ling Ying continued, “You two just happened to pass by, so I could only latch on to you guys… Just give me a ride, please?”
Zhong Lixing: “…”
“Then don’t latch onto here, latch onto somewhere else.” Kong Ge’s bust was mightily impressive, and the tentacles were wrapped extremely close to them. This caused her face to flush red.
“Okay.” Ling Ying was extremely cooperative, and she obediently moved her tentacles to Kong Ge’s slender waist.
Zhong Lixing yanked at the tentacles that were wrapped around his waist, but he found that they were surprisingly tough. Moreover, they were insanely strong and didn’t budge a single bit. Even his sharp claws weren’t able to leave a mark on them.
This cursed mystic realm… If it wasn’t for this natural law…
Zhong Lixing fell silent. He ignored Ling Ying and continued sprinting forward.
His goal was to obtain Realm Essence Crystals. This matter could be dealt with later!
Just like that, the two true demons became “cart pullers” who dragged Ling Ying along as they sprinted.
Ling Ying was absolutely ecstatic. She had been on the verge of puking after crawling along on her tentacles for so long.
This feeling was much better. Now that there were people pulling her forward, it felt like she was flying!
Hong Dou, who was still in the lead, was only less than two hundred meters away from the field of Realm Essence Crystals now.
He had never felt so accomplished before.
Regardless of whether it was his level-headed and powerful sect sister Ling Ying, the freakishly strong An Lin, or the physically dominant true demons, they were all trailing far behind him!
At this moment, they all had to gaze upon the mighty figure of their Grandpa Dou!
This was an incredible feeling…
It was as if he were a general leading the way for his troops. He was the most impressive and eye-catching individual in this group!
The more that he sprinted, the more euphoric he became. The red flames in his chest burnt brighter than ever before, and he could barely hold back his proud laughter.
Out of nowhere, the ground suddenly started quaking.
Everyone shuddered. The quaking wasn’t slowed down like they were; the earth was truly tremoring at a great speed. This sudden burst of violent tremors almost threw the slowly sprinting individuals off their feet.
The vast expanse of white land started to bulge and fracture…
A sense of foreboding crept into their minds. If something untoward happened now, would they be able to defend against it?
Smoke and dust billowed up from a patch of land one hundred meters away from the field of Realm Essence Crystals. Immediately afterward, hundreds of skeletal creatures crawled out from the ground. There were human skeletons, beast skeletons…
“Those who set foot upon my sanctuary must perish!”
As the skeletal creatures detected Hong Dou, balls of crimson flames burst to life in their dark and empty eye sockets. They let out angry roars and charged toward him at frightening speed!
Although they were only a tiny bit faster than ordinary humans, their speed was terrifying in the eyes of Hong Dou! The uncanny power of this mystic realm was ineffective against these skeletal monstrosities!
Hong Dou almost pissed his pants in fright when he saw these fierce skeletons bearing down upon him. His eyes were full of fear and regret.
Why did he have to run in front? Why was he about to become the first victim?
The skeletal monstrosities pounced at Hong Dou and started punching and kicking at him.
Hong Dou wanted to swat them away with his fist, yet his fist traveled at a meager speed of five meters per second. He was truly unable to strike any bones!
In no time, Hong Dou was pushed to the ground and on the receiving end of a mighty beating.
Fortunately, these skeletons weren’t too powerful, and their strength was at most that of the Fifth or Sixth Stage Dao Body.
Although Hong Dou was unable to draw upon the power of vital energy or the power of his body, his thick and sturdy rock body alone was enough to block the attacks of the skeletons. He wasn’t in any danger of getting injured.
However, not being injured wasn’t the main issue. Right now, he was being pummeled by a small army of useless skeletons. This was a form of humiliation!
“F*ck… of…” Hong Dou snarled. He lashed out at the army of skeletons with all his strength, yet his struggles were to no avail. His strikes were all dodged with ease…
Out of the hundreds of skeletal monstrosities, half streaked past Hong Dou and rushed toward An Lin and the others.
Thereupon, An Lin, Liu Chuchu, Ling Ying, Zhong Lixing, and Kong Ge all suffered the ill fate of being ravaged by skeletal monstrosities.
They were all respected and revered cultivators of the Soul Formation Stage. Right now, however, they were being bullied by mobs of weak skeletons. A feeling of humiliation and shame welled up in their hearts.
“Detestable… Detestable… This is going too far…” There was a look of pain and agitation on Zhong Lixing’s face. A gigantic wolf skeleton pounced on him and started to chew at the pair of sharp horns on his head.
“Ah… Stop this…” Liu Chuchu slipped and fell to the ground after being coiled around by a skeletal python. There was a look of grief on her delicate face as she gazed at the nearby field of Realm Essence Crystals.
An Lin was knocked flying by a humungous skeletal elephant. Then, he was set upon by a bunch of human skeletons.
Kong Ge was surrounded by skeletal birds, which repeatedly swooped at her, and she eventually collapsed to the ground.
Ling Ying let out weird screams as a mob of skeletal dogs bit her tentacles.
Soon after, Liu Chuchu’s expression froze. It was as though she had seen something unfathomable.
A figure that they had all ignored was currently sprinting toward the field of Realm Essence Crystals.
She was so tiny…
Yet in the eyes of Liu Chuchu, she was a ray of neglected light. She was a ray of light that streaked toward victory!
The white dress of the adorable fairy fluttered in the wind as she sped toward the finish line.
At only two centimeters tall, her body was tiny. Perhaps… it was due to her tiny stature that she was also ignored by the skeletal monstrosities. She had already whizzed past Hong Dou and dashed into first place!
