Chapter 300: 299: Tearing Through the Void!
Chapter 300: 299: Tearing Through the Void!
In an area markedly different from the external space, Fire Thorn Lady inquired with a furrowed brow.
At first, she thought Cang Yu was joking, but who would have thought, he indeed came to find this foreign woman.
Moreover, what she didn’t expect was that Cang Yu was genuinely serious about it, he even used the space sealing, which was extremely difficult for space cultivators to deploy.
Although Cang Yu used a tool to execute this seal, such tools were rare treasures. He would not use them unless it was a matter of life and death.
Given such a premise, she was somewhat perplexed by his motives.
In her opinion, Cang Yu wasn’t that type of man. If he coveted other women, rumors about it would have surfaced a long time ago when he was still a Main God.
However, the reality was that he had never laid his hands on any woman. He was a man who prioritized cultivation.
At this moment, Cang Yu didn’t answer her question. Despite every attack he launched exploding with the force of tens of thousands Naer, it seemed as if he was trying to kill his opponent.
However, Tao Xuanzhu, who was facing him, not only displayed effortless brilliance in handling the attack of tens of thousands of Naer but also periodically shot flying swords to probe his defenses.
“What is this person trying to do?”
Tao Xuanzhu was somewhat puzzled. Initially, she figured that this man wanted to trap her and then summon others to encircle and capture her.
In such a case, she could escape the moment the barrier was lifted.
However, a considerable amount of time had passed, but no one else had arrived.
Based on this timeline, Kou Yingwu and others should have already finished their battle, which meant that her foes should have also finished fighting and would be able to sense the situation here.
But no one had arrived, indicating that Cang Yu’s barrier could not only prevent her escape but also isolate them from the outside world, perfectly concealing their activities!
Should she use that move?
She hesitated for a moment, but quickly shook her head slightly.
She wasn’t alone; she had a temporary team of five people.
She still had four teammates!
If Du Gang had it his way, he would undoubtedly bring others to rescue her. Therefore, she ought to delay a bit more, wait for them to arrive!
Having made up her mind, she was in no rush. She began to slowly exchange attacks with her opponent.
While she remained calm, Cang Yu was growing impatient.
The time they had wasted had been quite ample. If they waited a bit longer, the other Main Gods, noticing his absence, might come looking. By then, the woman wouldn’t be his anymore!
“That look in his eyes… ”
Fire Thorn Lady, who was sporadically launching attacks, had been observantly watching Cang Yu. She noted the blatant covetousness in his eyes as he gazed at Tao Xuanzhu.
Could it be possible that he really desires a woman?
She was bewildered and felt she had never understood Cang Yu despite having spent so much time with him.
Although they weren’t in an intimate relationship, they were both Main Gods and were therefore familiar with each other. However, at this moment, he seemed entirely foreign to her.
……..
Du Gang and his group were traveling rapidly and reached Tao Xuanzhu’s location within a very short period of time.
They had been worried about Tao Xuanzhu being attacked and hence hadn’t concealed their approach, racing to her rescue.
“This is the place!”
The group stopped, looking around to assess the surroundings.
“There’s no one here!”
Lan Zhize frowned, shaking his head, “Not only is there no one, there doesn’t seem to be any sign of battle!”
Jia Xiangming agreed and turned to Du Gang, “Did you calculate the position wrongly?!”
“Not at all!”
Du Gang shook his head, “This is exactly the location I told Tao Xuanzhu about. With her character, she wouldn’t deviate!”
Given Du Gang’s conviction, Kou Yingwu thought it unlikely that he was lying and speculated, “Could Tao Xuanzhu have been intercepted on the way?”
“It’s possible…”
The three of them immediately started theorizing.
Meanwhile, Du Gang gently closed his eyes.
He felt a familiarity with the environment around him, as if something…
“A barrier?!”
Suddenly, he opened his eyes wide, gazing straight ahead.
“Huh?”
Everyone followed his gaze, looking puzzled because all they saw was empty air.
“You mean, there’s a barrier here?”
Kou Yingwu and the others were bewildered. They knew what a barrier was, but they hadn’t thought that a God Spirit Level could set up one, so they hadn’t considered this possibility.
Du Gang, on the other hand, had seen barriers in the Pangu Universe and had set one up himself, so he was familiar with them.
“This place is a different world, unlike the Primordial Continent. There are slight differences in the spaces!”
As he pondered this, Du Gang recalled the spatial laws he had learned in the universe and tentatively pronounced a word.
“Reveal!”
Unexpectedly, at that moment, it was as if he could manipulate the very elements around him.
The erstwile deserted forest started manifesting folds. The air began to bubble.
It wasn’t long before a ripple-like barrier appeared before everyone’s eyes.
“What!”
All three stared at Du Gang, astounded, “You can use spatial magic?”
They couldn’t help but feel astonished. On the Primordial Continent, anything related to space was beyond the reach of a typical God Spirit Level.
Furthermore, the word ‘reveal’ uttered by Du Gang was strikingly similar to the Word of Truth that only a True God Level could master.
Could it be that he knew the ways of the True God?
The three were somewhat shocked. They had initially thought that Du Gang’s power was limited to a certain range, but who knew he had concealed his true strength!
It was unbelievable!
However, Du Gang offered no explanation. Let them remain misunderstood. What if they turned out to be foes someday?
Now, they had discovered the barrier, and the ones inside the barrier must have discovered them too.
The one most pleased was Tao Xuanzhu. She looked at the four men who had suddenly appeared outside and couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, it was her own people who arrived first!
On the other hand, Cang Yu was looking increasingly troubled!
“Damn it, what are those guys doing? Why didn’t they stop those people? Why aren’t they coming for help?”
Hearing his low growl, Fire Thorn Lady snorted disdainfully.
Wasn’t it all because he wanted to claim the woman for himself and had set a barrier specifically to trap her? Fearful of being discovered by others, he had even deliberately added a concealment spell to the barrier.
The fact that the others arrived first only indicated one thing: they were already informing their people.
“Fire Thorn Lady, cover me for a minute!”
Cang Yu looked at her with reddened eyes full of frustration.
Contrarily, Fire Thorn Lady was surprised by his determination and extremely curious about it.
Cang Yu was known for his calm demeanor, but at this moment, he appeared reckless and cruel. It showed that the woman must mean something to him!
As for whether he genuinely wanted the woman for ‘that’ purpose, it was definitely impossible!
If she believed that absurdity, she would truly be a fool!
Cang Yu must have captured this woman because she is special.
“Those are the two!”
In the outside world, Kou Yingwu suddenly pointed at the two inside, saying: “They were the ones I encountered, these two righteous Gods ran away as soon as they saw me…”
He initially thought that they were afraid of him, but now, it seems, they have come to find Tao Xuanzhu!
Could it be, they really plan to capture Tao Xuanzhu as a hostage?
However, is it common to bring your own wife to abduct a second wife?
He naturally took Fire Thorn Lady for Cang Yu’s wife, so he found the situation somewhat amusing.
This guy…
He must be an outlaw at heart!
A twitch appeared at the corner of Du Gang’s mouth, he easily read these thoughts from Kou Yingwu’s eyes.
He shook his head, not bothering to crush his illusions, he said directly: “Captain, since these two escaped from you, don’t you plan to finish them off?”
“Heh heh!”
Kou Yingwu laughed heartily, a surge of chivalry soaring within his heart, he swiftly shot upward, flying swiftly towards the center of the battle.
Although he didn’t know how to cast a barrier, he had come across them before, and he understood the principle.
Barriers, in general, are divided into two types, one is to block the people inside from escaping.
The other blocks outsiders from entering.
Other features such as sound isolation and stealth capabilities are additional functionalities.
As Tao Xuanzhu, who has the ability to fly on her sword, had stayed within the barrier, it suggested that the barrier was made to prevent the people inside from going out, which meant it was possible for outsiders to enter!
Indeed, that was the case. Without expending much effort, Kou Yingwu passed through as if he was passing through a wall of water and easily slipped in.
“Ha ha, prepare to die!”
Kou Yingwu roared, a giant shadow of his blade appeared, cutting towards Cang Yu and Fire Thorn Lady.
“I can’t let you interfere with Cang Yu, this concerns whether I can attain the Final Divine Position…”
Fire Thorn Lady seemed quite indifferent, as though treating Kou Yingwu as an insignificant ant, she still had the energy to talk about other things.
She indifferently swung her hand, the red belt that was coiled around her waist instantly flew out, turning into a flexible whip, whipping towards the shadow of the blade.
“Huh?!”
Upon seeing this, Lan Zhize and Jia Xiangming both glanced subconsciously at Fire Thorn Lady’s skirt, curious about what would happen next.
Upon witnessing this, Du Gang rolled his eyes, he kicked both of them and reprimanded them: “What the hell are you looking at, if she was willing to whip it off, it means it wouldn’t fall off. Stop dawdling, go and help, otherwise, by the time others from the Seven Gods Palace arrive, it would be too hard to escape!”
Now that they had already identified the Son of Destiny, they should complete the mission as soon as possible to avoid any complications!
“You’re a saint!”
Lan Zhize looked at Du Gang, who seemed indifferent, and sighed with emotion, then rotared upward, rushing to join the battle.
Jia Xiangming, who was standing on the side, also showed a look of admiration and immediately followed suit.
Du Gang curled his lips, a saint?
Of course, he was not!
The reason why he was unmoved was that he had seen more thrilling things in the brilliant universe.
He had experienced rough seas, why would he care about this small scene?
Not to mention Fire Thorn Lady’s bare legs, even if she was wearing black stockings…
“Cough, I wouldn’t mind getting a look of her in black stockings…”
Get a grip!
Du Gang felt the need to clear his mind from such thoughts influenced by his surroundings, then he flew into the battle.
The reason why it is called a barrier is that it has a confinement method far beyond what an average person can deploy.
So, it can’t be simply broken. The easiest way is to directly kill the person who set up the barrier or have him remove it voluntarily.
Now that he knew that Cang Yu and Fire Thorn Lady were inside, two righteous Gods, he naturally would not choose to forcefully break the barrier, instead, he chose to go in.
“Stay where you are!”
After Fire Thorn Lady made her move, she realized she had underestimated her opponent.
The muscle-bound man was far stronger than she had imagined. Just one shadow of his blade had exhausted all of her whip’s power, and even caused her hand that was holding the whip to numb.
These guys are too powerful!
She tried to forcibly stop Lan Zhize among others from coming in, but without a doubt, all were blocked by Kou Yingwu.
“You dare to attack others? Have I lost my pride?!”
At this moment, Kou Yingwu did not treat her as a woman but as a peculiar opponent. His face was full of excitement, and he began to attack incessantly, like a ravaging storm.
“This madman!”
Fire Thorn Lady cursed under her breath, it was clear that the man in front of her was a mad warrior.
“Cang Yu, I can only help you stop one!”
Useless!
Cang Yu was seething with rage in his heart, just give me two more minutes!
Just two minutes, and I will definitely capture her!
At this moment, the look in his eyes when he looked at Tao Xuanzhu was filled with desire.
This is the key to his promotion!
This is the source of his power surge!
On the other hand, Tao Xuanzhu felt the deepest impact, she felt that the man across from her did not want to defile her, but wanted to eat her!
Yes, literally, ‘eat’ her!
Could it be that he knew about her constitution and, furthermore, he had a way to devour others’ constitutions to strengthen his own?!
This was the only possibility she could think of!
While she was pondering, Lan Zhize and Jia Xiangming also rushed over and started to attack Cang Yu.
“Sigh!”
Cang Yu, who was dealing with the attacks from the three, was somewhat regretful. The reckless and violent expression on his face gradually disappeared, and his expression returned to its usual calm.
“Boom!”
With one powerful attack, he created an opening in the combined attack of the three, paused, with his eyes locked onto Tao Xuanzhu, he said in a deep voice: “You are mine, I will be back for you!”
After saying this, he looked deeply at Tao Xuanzhu one last time. Then he tore open a scroll in his hand, his whole person instantaneously disappeared into the void.
“Cang Yu, you bastard!”
In the distance, Fire Thorn Lady had been paying attention to the central battlefield. Upon seeing what happened, she was so furious that she wished she could drag Cang Yu back and beat him up.
He actually abandoned her and fled!
Just at this moment, something shocking happened.
“Trying to escape?!”
Du Gang, who had been merely observing the battle, saw Cang Yu disappearing into the void and sneered coldly, then he did something that shocked everyone present.
Just as he waved his hand casually, a crack appeared in space. He stepped into it, disappearing instantly, chasing after Cang Yu.
“Ah?!!”
Ripping through space bare-handed? Escaping into the void?!
At that moment, everyone present was stunned.
