Free Web NovelChapter 349: Escape
Just as Shangguan Nan finished speaking, his figure vanished from his original spot.
Everyone knew that Wang Yufan was definitely in grave danger.
When Emperor Huang Wuji saw this, he said nothing, then turned to Wang Gang and said, "Alright, you continue to announce the results of this competition.
As for the first-place winner, Wang Yufan, and Hanba, their scores will not be included for now; just follow the order of the competition."
Hearing Emperor Huang Wuji’s words, Wang Gang immediately responded respectfully, then announced the final results of this Genius Grand Competition to everyone.
In the time that followed, the first place of the annual Genius Grand Competition went to Miaofa from the Tainan Zen Sect; as for Wang Yufan and Hanba, not a single word was mentioned, and only those who witnessed the battle knew the reason behind this matter.
At this moment, a thousand miles from the Mingyue Empire, Wang Yufan’s voice continuously echoed through the undulating mountains.
Behind him, three powerful forces pressed down upon him; undoubtedly, these three were Shangguan Nan, Sima Chun, and Zhang Dao.
Among the three, Shangguan Nan was the strongest, having reached the Yuandao Realm.
Wang Yufan, relying on the power from the Feng Ling Sword, infused it into the Chaos Bell and sped forward with lightning-fast speed.
However, Shangguan Nan and the others’ strength was not to be underestimated.
The distance between them and Wang Yufan continuously closed.
"Young friend, stop running; you can’t escape.
You’ve already offended the Netherworld Divine Sect, so we just need you to stay here for a few more days; there’s no need to be so anxious, is there?" Shangguan Nan’s voice continuously came from behind Wang Yufan.
And when Wang Yufan heard the mention of the Netherworld Divine Sect, he said, "You people, who appear righteous on the surface, often have dark hearts.
You are deceivers from beginning to end.
If I fall into your hands, how could I possibly survive?
Once this so-called Netherworld Divine Sect comes to hold me accountable, I don’t need to think much; your Tianyu Divine Sect will surely throw me out, right?
Don’t say you wouldn’t; if you truly wouldn’t, there would be no need for three important figures to chase me.
I am truly flattered!" As Wang Yufan spoke, his speed increased even further.
However, in Shangguan Nan’s eyes, no matter how fast Wang Yufan was, he was still not as fast as him.
Shangguan Nan still maintained a speed relative to Wang Yufan, and behind him, Zhang Dao and Sima Chun followed closely.
Wang Yufan tried several times but could not shake off Shangguan Nan and the others, but he showed no sign of stopping.
As time passed, Wang Yufan continuously formed hand seals, and his strength was constantly being depleted.
"This isn’t going to work.
It seems I’ve truly been toyed with by these three.
True strength is too important," Wang Yufan muttered to himself.
He looked towards the mountains not far away, and upon that glance, he saw a huge cave, and Wang Yufan could feel a powerful force emanating from within this massive cave.
Wang Yufan knew that there must be a very powerful demonic beast in this cave.
If he went in like this, he would most likely be walking into a tiger’s den.
But there were also three pursuers behind him.
Even so, he still had to choose to take a gamble.
If he were brought back by these three, his fate would probably not be very good.
What’s more, he had treasures on him; these three would definitely not ignore them.
"Wang Yufan, stop right there!" Sima Chun roared loudly, for he felt an extremely powerful force within this cave.
And Shangguan Nan, who was at the very front, also sensed this force.
According to Shangguan Nan’s judgment, there was definitely a very powerful demonic beast force within this cave.
And this force was not weaker than himself, or Zhang Dao and Sima Chun behind him.
At this moment, Wang Yufan didn’t care what would happen and rushed directly into the cave.
However, just as Wang Yufan rushed in, a low growl came from inside the cave.
Shangguan Nan, Zhang Dao, and Sima Chun, who were chasing Wang Yufan, immediately stopped.
Wang Yufan, who was at the very front, had already entered the huge cave under the cover of the Chaos Bell.
Of course, Wang Yufan also heard the sound just now.
That sound made Wang Yufan dizzy; fortunately, under the protection of the Chaos Bell, the impact he suffered was greatly reduced.
As Wang Yufan continued to enter further, a pair of giant, lantern-like eyes suddenly opened in the darkness and looked towards Wang Yufan.
Under that gaze, Wang Yufan felt as if his whole body was about to be drenched.
It was truly because in those lantern-like eyes, Wang Yufan saw mountains of corpses and seas of blood, and the power emanating from them was even stronger than that of Shangguan Nan and the others.
Wang Yufan did not activate the Chaos Bell to continue forward at this moment; he just stopped dead in his tracks.
And after those lantern-like eyes looked at Wang Yufan, they turned towards the outside of the cave.
It goes without saying that the monster inside must have sensed Shangguan Nan and the others outside the cave.
Seeing this, Wang Yufan took a deep breath.
He knew that today, under the protection of the Chaos Bell, he had entered this place.
Wang Yufan stood still, not moving.
He was waiting, waiting for this demonic beast to leave here.
Sure enough, as Wang Yufan waited, the head beneath the pair of eyes in the darkness slowly moved out into the darkness, and Wang Yufan also saw the full appearance of this so-called demonic beast as it moved.
It turned out to be an eight-legged lizard, dozens of feet tall.
This lizard was covered in scales, and its entire body was red.
This huge red lizard also had two horns on its head.
"What a strange demonic beast," Wang Yufan murmured.
He had just arrived in the Primordial Spirit Realm and did not know much about everything in the Primordial Spirit Realm.
And as this huge lizard strode towards the cave entrance.
Wang Yufan knew that this big lizard was definitely going to confront Shangguan Nan and the others.
Not long after, Wang Yufan heard a huge roar from inside the cave, knowing that a fight must have broken out outside.
But none of this was his concern; he only wanted to figure out how to escape from here now.
Wang Yufan slowly followed the cave entrance towards the deepest part.
As Wang Yufan continuously delved deeper, he saw a pool, and that pool was less than a meter wide.
Wang Yufan didn’t care about the pool, but rather the white liquid inside the pool, because he felt a very powerful heaven and earth energy from that liquid.
Wang Yufan knew that today he had turned misfortune into a blessing.
