Chapter 848: Chapter 849: Rushing Through the Passage (Second Update!)
“These guys were formidable fighters when they were alive. Who would’ve thought they’d end up as just a pile of bones?”
Walking along the road leading into the Ancient God Ruins, Zhao Jun couldn’t help but sigh softly as he looked at the scattered bones on the path beneath his feet.
“People die for wealth, birds die for food. It’s always been this way since ancient tis!”
Sun Wukong’s mind flashed with a phrase that he naturally recited. It surprised him, though it seed to be a mory from Lin Yi, the forr master of the Ti-Space Life-Death Talisman.
Since arriving in the Yuan Realm, the residual mories of the forr master within the Ti-Space Life-Death Talisman seed to have been activated, continuously integrating into Sun Wukong’s divine soul. Unconsciously, many words and actions that he had never encountered before would slip out, yet felt unusually familiar, as if it was natural to say and do them.
“What a great saying—people die for wealth, birds die for food! I never expected you to be so talented, Brother Wukong!”
This phrase had never been heard in the Yuan Realm. Zhao Jun’s eyes brightened as he looked at Sun Wukong with a different gaze.
Sun Wukong gave a wry smile. He couldn’t possibly say that this phrase was inherited, could he?
The Ti-Space Life-Death Talisman was even more mysterious than the Wall of Ti-Space, and it was his greatest secret, one that he could never reveal to anyone!
“Rustle, rustle!”
A strange sound rang out. Sun Wukong’s heart tightened, and his eyes flashed with dark golden light as he looked towards the statues on either side, shouting sharply, “The statues are alive! Brother Zhao, be careful, let’s speed up and rush out!”
He sped up, taking advantage of the fact that the statues hadn’t fully transford into living beings, and rushed forward as quickly as possible.
Zhao Jun dared not delay, following Sun Wukong closely. These statues were no weaklings, as it didn’t take long for them to tear apart other experts in re seconds. These statues’ cultivation strength was at least at the Realm General level, making it impossible to disentangle from them quickly.
Just now, Zhao Jun and Sun Wukong clearly saw that once the statues transford into living beings, the Fire-Armored Devouring Divine Insects would appear. They simply didn’t have ti to get entangled with the statues here!
Roar~!
The transformation of the statues into living beings didn’t take much ti, only a brief mont. When Sun Wukong and Zhao Jun had already rushed into the depths of the passage, the statues let out earth-shattering roars and stepped towards the two of them. Each stride compressed space, equaling several strides of an ordinary person!
“Space Law! These statues can actually use the Space Law! No wonder those people weren’t a match!”
Zhao Jun glanced back out of the corner of his eye, his pupils suddenly tightening. He noticed the Space Law swirling around the statues’ legs, which was why they were so fast, quickly catching up in just a few steps.
“If they can use the Law, so can we!”
Sun Wukong said in a deep voice, already activating the Space-Ti Law. The Shrinking Earth into Inches Divine Skill was deployed, instantly accelerating his speed several tis as he rushed towards the end of the passage. The Fire-Armored Devouring Divine Insects previously erged from beneath both sides of the passage, but not at the end, so as long as they rushed through, they would be safe.
Crack, crack!
Zhao Jun also activated the Great Dao Law, speeding up to follow him. At the sa ti, a sound that made both faces change drastically arose as nurous palm-sized red figures erged from both sides of the road – the Fire-Armored Devouring Divine Insects!
“Damn it!”
The Fire-Armored Devouring Divine Insects still appeared. At this rate, they wouldn’t make it through the passage before being covered by the insects swarming from both sides!
“Chaos Fire!”
“Heaven-Breaking One Stick!”
Despite Blue Spirit and others saying that the Fire-Armored Devouring Divine Insects could absorb fla power and were highly resistant to other powers, Sun Wukong had no other choice now.
Better a live dog than a dead lion!
He swung out a stick, creating a monuntal shadow of the stick, which slamd fiercely into the Fire-Armored Devouring Divine Insect swarm converging ahead in the passage, stirring a powerful energy fluctuation that made the ground tremble violently.
Following that, a terrifying shockwave mixed with Chaos Fire spread out, hitting the Fire-Armored Devouring Divine Insects charging from all directions.
The swarm’s advance halted abruptly. Though the Fire-Armored Devouring Divine Insects were known to absorb all fla energy, they found it far less easy to absorb the Chaos Fire. After absorbing just a tiny bit, their color changed, turning from red to dark black.
The next mont, all the Fire-Armored Devouring Divine Insects with dark black shells scread in pain, each one turning around and fleeing back along their original path, colliding violently with those still charging forward and exploding fiercely.
Bang, bang, bang, bang!
The massive explosions extended deep into the passage. Zhao Jun looked in shock as the apparently invincible Fire-Armored Devouring Divine Insects exploded one by one, clearing a large section of the passage ahead. The swarm that was just about to close in was blasted open, leaving a significant gap.
“Brother Zhao, let’s go!”
Sun Wukong didn’t expect such an outco. It seed that the Fire-Armored Devouring Divine Insects couldn’t entirely absorb the Chaos Fire, or at least couldn’t do so perfectly, resulting in an explosion when they collided with other Fire-Armored Devouring Divine Insects like kindling.
Sun Wukong didn’t dare to be careless. His Chaos Fire was limited, while the number of Fire-Armored Devouring Divine Insects seed endless. Once his Chaos Fire was exhausted, he wouldn’t be able to counter these insects!
Accelerating, Sun Wukong’s figure turned into a phantom light as he darted towards the gap in the Fire-Armored Devouring Divine Insects’ swarm. Zhao Jun had no ti to marvel, following as fast as he could, and the two of them raced through the gap, finally stepping onto the stairs at the end of the passage.
Rustle, rustle!
Crack, crack!
The statues and the Fire-Armored Devouring Divine Insects chasing at full speed behind them suddenly stopped. The next mont, the statues turned around and returned to their original positions, while the Fire-Armored Devouring Divine Insects retreated into the ditches on either side of the road, disappearing quickly as if they had never appeared.
“Phew!”
Sun Wukong let out a long breath, stumbling weakly and almost collapsing to the ground. Zhao Jun quickly supported him.
“Brother Wukong, are you alright?”
“I’m fine, just overexerted. A little ditation and I’ll be good.” Sun Wukong’s face was pale as he sat down to ditate. He had not held back at all earlier, nearly exhausting ninety percent of his Chaos Fire, leaving his body extrely depleted.
