Indestructible God King - Chapter 72.1

Chapter 72.1 The Second Senior Apprentice Felt Touched (1/2)

Divine Dragon Island—In the cavern room of the prison complex!

Drops of sweat rained down on Wang Ke’s face as he dug through the wall with his enchanted spades.

Soon. Soon, I will be able to get out! The hopeful Wang Ke dug.

His second senior brother from the Heavenly Wolf Sect had bulging cheeks at the moment. The compressed essence Qi in his mouth had to be released within a short time, or else his mouth would start aching due to the pressure.

Cultivators could usually reabsorb essence Qi and send it back to their core cradle, but the prisoner had his core cradle sealed. There was no way to absorb the essence Qi; the only thing he could do was to endure the pain as he kept it in his mouth!

I just want to die. Come here! Of all times, why are you trying to carve up a wall cabinet? That’s already enough! It’s deep enough already! The righteous apprentice was burning with anxiety.

But the demon before him showed no sign of coming back.

Second senior apprentice: “…………………….!”

Oh the pain! I can’t hold it much longer. What should I do? The second senior apprentice felt a mixture of sorrow and anger.

Is it so hard to die?

He was eventually unable to hold it—a little bit of essence Qi leaked out from his mouth.

“Puuu~~~~~~~~!”

The soft sound reverberated across the entire room. Wang Ke—who was still digging the wall with his spade—turned around with eyes peeled and looked at his second senior brother before covering his nose, with a somewhat annoyed face.

He is my senior apprentice-brother; it’s not appropriate for me to reprimand him. Forget it, forget it. I should continue digging.

Wang Ke ignored his senior’s gaffe, but the latter was raging in humiliation. It was the essence Qi that leaked out from my mouth. Why the hell did you cover your nose?

Wang Ke continued digging. The deeper he dug, the more excited he became since the change in soil composition meant that the tunnel was close to completion.

Everything was progressing well, except for his senior brother’s actions, which were a bit too much. I’ve already endured the first “puu~” sound, but the next string of farts were really too much.Is there not an end?

Although Wang Ke didn’t smell any odor, it was the fact that counted; he could not take it. I would have knocked you down if you weren’t my second senior apprentice-brother. Damn it!Don’t you see that I’m here?Please show some consideration!

Wang Ke kept digging the wall while his senior’s mouthful of essence Qi was being emptied. Curse it! Why couldn’t I even kill myself earlier? Why!Why aren’t you coming over?

Are you really going to waste this mouthful of essence Qi?

No, no way. I harmed myself to produce this much essence Qi; I can’t let it all go to waste. Forget it. It’s okay if it isn’t as much. It’s okay, even if it’s less powerful.Demon… Die!

“Pfftttt!”

This time, the righteous apprentice wrapped his remaining essence Qi with his blood and shot it toward Wang Ke. An arrow made of blood was instantly shot toward the back of Wang Ke’s head.

The latter instinctively sensed something while digging, and deflected the projectile with a backhand swing.

“Boooom!”

The entire room shook after the muffled sound of an explosion. Smoke and dust filled the place.

That was dangerous! Wang Ke’s eyes were like saucers, wide in disbelief. My hand is numb after making contact with that blood arrow.Who was it?

Wang Ke stared at his senior brother. Was it him who attacked me from the back?Didn’t they seal his cultivation?How is it that he can still attack?With that much power even?

Wang Ke was unaware that more than half a mouthful of essence Qi had already leaked out from his senior’s mouth before he attacked. Otherwise, his move could have even killed a Golden Core stage demon at close distance!

Wang Ke had been spared thanks to the weakening of the skill; plus, the attack had been sent from a relative distance.

“Demon, don’t waste our time. I’m already… I hate it! I hate that I can’t drag you down with me as I die! Pfffttt!” said the fierce-looking senior.

“You……….!” Wang Ke truly felt conflicted.

He was able to understand the situation, but he could only sigh, not laying any blame. He then picked up his spade to continue digging.

“Wait. Cough, cough. Something is off. Your spade? Hold on. The way you deflected my attack, was it the Sect Lord’s sword skill, Moon-watching Backswing? You, you… Why do you know that move? Why?” the second senior apprentice cried out in shock.

Wang Ke’s face became grave. He dashed toward his senior and covered his mouth.

“Wrrrrhhhh!” The prisoner looked at Wang Ke in disbelief.

Wang Ke was really frustrated. He acted out of instinct when he deflected that attack, using his revered teacher’s Ten-thousand Sword Incantation. Alas, he didn’t expect that someone would recognize it that easily.

He wasn’t planning to expose his identity. What should I do now?Don’t tell me I have to shut his trap by killing him!

“Second senior apprentice-brother, please forgive me. I can’t expose my identity; I have my reasons. I recently found out that the demons captured many righteous disciples. It took a great deal of effort for me to infiltrate this place. It’s been like treading on thin ice, preventing any demons from finding out who I am. I’m here to rescue you! But please don’t spill the soup to the others, or else it would be the end for me!” Wang Ke whispered to his senior.

The righteous prisoner was shaking, wide-eyed.

Someone came to rescue me?Someone came to rescue me!Righteous sect?A disciple from the Heavenly Wolf Sect? Hot tears immediately welled up in his eyes. He wasn’t crying for his own good fortune; he cried because he was happy that his juniors would soon be rescued.

Only someone like him would know how difficult it was to infiltrate the demonic sect. No one would even dare to dream about it! He also understood how difficult it was for his newly acquainted junior.

“Junior, I’m sorry for exposing you!” The righteous apprentice felt an immense load of guilt.

“Second senior apprentice-brother, please don’t say that. This duty is for the sake of our righteous sect; I’ve never regretted a thing! It’s just that I don’t know how things will end up. I’m not sure if I can bring you all out to safety. If I can’t, I will try my best to escape and take a map of this place to the Heavenly Wolf Sect so that the rest can come and rescue all of you!” Wang Ke said with worry.

Rescue them? Wang Ke could hardly protect himself; how could he rescue the rest? He said that just to make it easier for him to escape the Divine Dragon Island; that way he would not worry that his senior could betray him.

But his senior didn’t know that. Wang Ke’s self-sacrificial mindset had already earned him deep respect.

“Junior, whatever it is you’re trying to do, I will cooperate! Don’t worry, even if I have to die, I won’t let others learn of your identity!” said the righteous senior. He was truly touched.

“Good, good. Thank you, second senior apprentice-brother. Please stop thinking about killing yourself. There’s always hope while you’re alive!” Wang Ke comforted his senior.

“Okay, sure. I will listen to you!” said the righteous prisoner with tears of excitement.

He was refusing to eat because he saw no hope. Now with the sliver of a chance, he had to stay alive!

“So, I will ignore you from here on. Pretend that you have never seen me before!” Wang Ke told his senior expectantly.

“Understood. Junior, you are indeed walking on a tightrope with danger all around. I won’t add to your troubles. I know nothing, don’t worry!” The righteous senior nodded in agreement.

“Thank you. I shall continue with my tunnel, then. The demons somehow appear to be scheming against me. I cannot let them have their way!” Wang Ke explained.

“Okay, okay. Junior, go ahead! I don’t know you. You’re still a demon! I know nothing!” The prisoner nodded again.

Once he had successfully consoled his second senior apprentice-brother, Wang Ke left him and continued digging his tunnel.

“You’re digging toward one of the cells. However, the demons should have placed something in front that can’t be dug through. You should dig a little more to your left!” The second senior apprentice pointed out.
