"I must say, you do know your stuff for soone who has grown up in the world of these mortals all your life," comnted the grand mage as he crouched down.
He slowly removed the storage ring from Lai Peng's hand that was cut off earlier.
In the anti, the hourglass lost its effectiveness and fell on the ground, and cracked. The restriction on Lan Ju's movents was also removed.
Lan Ju furrowed his brows, "what are you doing?"
"Nothing, I was just taking the thing that belonged to us, that's all…" replied the grand mage. He then added, "You see… Eye of Talim belonged to the Azu clan in the first place."
"Doesn't matter. Every treasure presented on this mountain belonged to my master." Lan Ju said in a serious tone.
To which, Wang Chin burst out into laughter, "hahahaha, what a funny joke. Do you really believe that you are invincible or sothing? I have seen enough demigods to know how to deal with them."
The grand mage raised his staff once again and slamd its tip onto the ground, unleashing the ancient formation and locking down everyone.
"You have already tried that last ti. It didn't work." Lan Ju comnted and proceeded to gather the energy in his hand. He doesn't want to waste his ti with this peak-8-circle mage.
However, Wang Chin didn't look scared at all.
Did he have any tricks up his sleeve?
Might be possible but Lan Ju could care less about it as this grand mage standing before him is already dead in his eyes.
As a spear made of ether energy ford in Lan Ju's hands, Wang Chin took out another hourglass, surprising the forr.
As the hourglass was thrown into the air, Lan Ju reacted in a tily manner.
Instead of motioning the spear toward the enemy's heart, he activated his teleportation skill and made his escape. The barrier conjured by the collective efforts of the mbers of the Kunlun sect was bypassed and Lan Ju returned to his master's side.
Mark was taken aback by the sudden appearance of Lan Ju. Xie i, who was already stunned by the earlier performance of the missile defense system, couldn't help but wonder whether the war is already over.
However, Lan Ju appeared to be in a hurry. As soon as he reached his master, he didn't give any ti for the explanation and directly grabbed Mark while saying, "We need to move away quickly…"
"What do you an…" Mark had confusion clearly written on his face. Just a mont ago, Lan Ju gave him a signal that indicated the surrender of Lai Peng but now, he was telling him to leave the place. What might have happened?
Mark wanted to know the matter but Lan Ju didn't have ti to explain him. He decided to first teleport away to as far as he could and then answer.
Soon, the hourglass was activated and ti froze in Wang Chin's surroundings once again. As the wave of colorless energy passed through Xie i, she was frozen on the spot just like all the disciples of the Wuji sect and Kunlun sect.
anwhile, Lan Ju and Mark appeared outside of the mountain range, located about 50 kiloters away from Mt. Wu.
"Sorry about that, master but the enemy appeared to possess a treasure that can stop the ti to the individuals within a certain range. It is sothing I have never witnessed or heard of it before." Lan Ju continued to explain everything about how this grand mage belonged to the Azu clan, one of the enemy clans of the Lan Clan, back at the plane of ice and fire, how he killed Lai Peng, etc…
After hearing him out, Mark furrowed his brows, "Why are these simple matters getting too complicated…"
He thought for a bit and said, "Then, let's teleport back to Mt. Wu. We cannot let him get away."
"No, what if he had a third hourglass?" Lan Ju was worried about Mark's safety. "I think it is best for you to stay here. I will return after taking care of him."
Wang Chin's purple flas or so whatever will not be able to hurt him a little bit but Mark was different. If Lai Peng can be killed, then, there is a high chance that Mark can be killed too and he wouldn't be able to stop him from doing that.
It was for this very reason Lan Ju bothered to take Mark far away from the battle zone. For soone of Wang Chin's caliber, it wouldn't be shocking to point out Mark's location by simply tracing the path of the projectiles fired earlier.
From his earlier experience, Lan Ju had already figured out what can that hourglass do. It stops the ti for exactly 5 seconds but had a range of 30 kiloters. That's like affecting more than 2800 sq. km of area.
In five seconds, Wang Chin might not be able to travel 16 kiloters to reach Mark but what's to say that he doesn't possess other mystical items?
Hence, Lan Ju felt the need to act with caution.
On the other hand, Mark didn't think it was a big deal as the zheng was making it to be. He convinced the zheng with his strategy to get back to the battlefield.
anwhile, on the top of Mt. Wu, the grand mage threw away the patriarch's hand and took the ring into his hand.
He had a grin on his face upon connecting his consciousness with the ring. "I didn't expect to get my hands on the Eye of Talim and even jade pipa this easily. I guess I should thank Lu Zhen and his zheng for creating an opportunity for to strike Lai Peng, although I would have done it eventually so other ti in the future.
Well, anyways, since I have already obtained what I want, it's ti to leave this place. I need to find a secret hideout to study Xiao Shu's mories and look for a way to break through to immortal… Hmm?"
As he was still in his thoughts, two figures popped out of thin air just a few ters away from him. One was the familiar opponent and another was sothing that looked like a mysterious alien creature.
However, before he even reacted, Mark who was in the exo suit raised his index finger and clicked on a skill.
"Gravity Do, 200g."
In the next instant, enormous pressure descended onto the surroundings, forcing everyone on the top of the mountain to their knees.
*Thud*
