Chapter 568: Go to the Side and Die
Translator: Novel Saga Editor: Novel Saga
Everyone knew that it would be a dead end if they couldn't deal with these three monsters; all of their efforts would be for naught.
"Screech!" the Silver Eagle King issued a loud eagle cry, and finally moved into action at this time. His wings fluttered, and unleashed endless winds. Consequently, a huge tornado swept towards that Buddhist Monk zombie who hadn't acted so far.
The Buddhist Monk zombie roared, and summoned a Buddha. A greyish Buddha aura suddenly illuminated the world. And, an image of Buddha appeared behind the Buddhist Monk zombie. However, this Buddha had fiendish features. It was a corpse Buddha!
The corpse Buddha opened his eyes. And, it seemed as if the world had sunk into darkness within an instant. Everything seemed to have sunk into the world of zombies. Endless greyish light swept out, and went up towards that tornado in order to tackle it.
"Rumble!"
Two dreadful forces suddenly collided in the space. This dreadful collision made the space around the point of collision ripple like the surface of boiling water. The space boiled, and frantically distorted. Then, the ripples swept across one after another.
The forces of both sides had been routed in midair.
Then, the Silver Eagle King moved once again. Silver rays of light burst out from its body in the form of a ring, and condensed into a huge falcon in the void. The huge falcon cried loudly, and rushed towards the Buddhist Monk.
"Roar!" the Buddha that was behind that Buddhist Monk zombie roared loudly. He opened his mouth like a sacrificial bowl, and stretched out a big black claw towards that huge falcon in order to grab it.
"Bang!" This was a terrifying scene. The big black claw penetrated that huge silver falcon, and ripped it apart.
Then, another big hand stretched out, but disappeared a second later. It seemed as if the hand had penetrated into the space. But, it re-appeared a moment later. However, it was already in front of the Silver Eagle King this time.
"Screech!" the Silver Eagle King screamed as its wings got torn apart by that big hand. Blood splashed out from his body as a result. The big hand retracted whilst holding the wings. Then, the corpse Buddha opened his mouth like a sacrificial bowl, and gobbled up those wings.
Everyone trembled with fear as they heard the 'crunch, crunch' sound of bones being chewed and crushed by the corpse Buddha. One must know that the Silver Eagle King had cultivated to the pinnacle of Sage Accomplished realm. It could be even said that his bones were as hard as steel. However, they had been chewed and crushed by the corpse Buddha with ease.
"Holy crap! What kind of fu*king monster is this?" The Zhuyan Ape couldn't take it anymore. It turned around, and escaped. It had no reason to stake its life in a fight with these three monsters. It had already seen the Silver Eagle King fighting with them. Its wings had been torn apart and eaten by the corpse Buddha even though it was in the form of Silver Eagle King.
The Zhuyan Ape didn't want to see its own limbs torn apart, and devoured as well. That would be extremely terrifying.
Everyone lost their courage when they saw the Silver Eagle King's wings being shattered by the Buddhist Monk zombie. The Zhuyan Ape had already escaped. Nobody wanted to step forward, and throw away their life. Therefore, they flew away in the direction of the gate one after another.
The entire troop had gotten dispersed. All of them had rushed towards the exit one after another.
Ye Xiwen quickly rushed towards the two women at a rapid speed and said, "Follow me closely; we're leaving."
He didn't want to stay here and fight these three monsters either. These three monsters hadn't entered the half-step of Great Sage realm yet. However, their strength was still unfathomable. It might be possible that they had been suppressed by the rules of Great Gas Collar. Or, they had just woken from an eternal sleep, and this was their weakest time. Ye Xiwen possessed the fighting prowess of a heaven's pride expert. Still, he couldn't dare to say that he could defeat them within a short time. Moreover, they would become even more ferocious once they gradually recovered. So, wasn't staying here equivalent to courting death?
"Boy, hand over my 'Sacred Spring of Life'!"
Everyone tried to escape at the same time, and thus created a chaotic situation. However, the speed of those three outrageously powerful zombies was much faster than theirs. Therefore, they had to run faster than the other experts to prevent the wrath of those three monsters from falling upon them.
A lot of people were thinking this, and Ye Xiwen was no exception. Therefore, the person that was looking for him at such a time could only be Tang Can. After all, he was originally the most promising contender for obtaining the 'Sacred Spring of Life'. This represented the so-called saying 'The mantis stalks the cicada unaware of the oriole behind it'. Tang Can was initially the cicada, and Ye Xiwen became the oriole in the end. Therefore, Tang Can was in a very foul mood when he saw Ye Xiwen at this time
He rushed towards Ye Xiwen, and blocked his way by arriving in front of him.
"Step aside or die!" Ye Xiwen shouted loudly. His hands clenched into fists, and blasted away Tang Can's divine beam. It was followed by a slap.
"Bang!"
A loud sound of breaking of bones was heard as expected. It was crisp and brutal. However, the result was contrary to everyone's expectations since it wasn't Ye Xiwen who had suffered a loss. Instead, Tang Can had suffered a huge defeat. He had been slapped on his head by Ye Xiwen, and had gone out flying as a result.
Tang Can had attacked moments ago, but he had already been defeated by Ye Xiwen in an effortless manner. His strength was apparently not as good as that of Gong Yan Jia.
Gong Yan Jia's demeanour was arrogant and domineering. However, he was at the top when it came to strength. He was a true powerhouse of the Sage Accomplished realm. He was second only to the heaven's pride experts in terms of fighting prowess.
This was why he had the confidence to behave in an arrogant and despotic manner.
However, Ye Xiwen had quickly realized that Tang Can was far weaker than Gong Yan Jia. Therefore, there was no comparison between him and a person like Ye Xiwen who stood bravely over a mountain of corpses and ocean of blood. They just weren't on the same level.
Moreover, Ye Xiwen was in a moment of desperation right now. So, he didn't hold back even a bit, and attacked with his entire strength. The two individuals' attacks set off an incomparably dreadful storm. It swept out layer upon layer of energy just like sea waves.
Tang Can screamed, and suddenly spouted a mouthful of blood. His body went out flying upside down the next moment. It wasn't clear how many of his bones had been fractured as a result.
He landed at the edge of the fleeing troop, and was immediately grabbed and torn apart by the Daoist Priest zombie. He screamed endlessly as his body got torn into two halves. Then, his body was devoured.
Nobody was in a mood to sympathize with this powerful person that used to be in the limelight. However, their opinion about Ye Xiwen had immediately changed. He had become an exceptionally fierce person in their eyes since he had slaughtered two Sage Accomplished level experts in succession. They had started taking him to be as ferocious as those three zombies that were pursuing them.
A lot of people had been eyeing the 'Sacred Spring of Life' that was in his hands. However, this thought cooled down when they saw this scene. After all, they had realized that their small tricks wouldn't work on him.
Ye Xiwen could feel that the auras of those three zombies were becoming increasingly formidable... as if someone had just awakened from a deep sleep.
Getting increasingly scary!
"Ye Xiwen, I'm afraid an extraordinary person may be buried inside this tomb. And perhaps, these three zombies were there to guard the inner chamber of this tomb. You people have woken up these three monsters by bursting into the tomb." Ye Mo said. "I can feel that some extraordinary being is lying therein. So, it would be better if you quickly left this place. The faster the better, the farther you go the better it is!"
Ye Xiwen nodded. He also didn't want to stay here.
Ye Xiwen's speed was extremely fast. His speed had maintained at the peak even though he was carrying two individuals. He overtook the majority of people, and reached near the gate in an instant... like a golden flash.
However, he suddenly found out that the terrifying auras of those three monsters had firmly locked upon his body. They were pursuing him tightly, and were getting closer. It was evident that they didn't wish to let him go.
Those three zombies were like three heavy tanks. The experts in their way either got torn apart or went out flying. It was hard to tell whether these experts were dead or alive after being run over.
The three zombies had been happily slaughtering these experts. However, they had suddenly started to ignore these experts, and had made Ye Xiwen their primary target.
Ye Xiwen's devil wings were an incredible magical technique, and his agility skill was extremely quick. It wasn't clear how much distance he had travelled in an instant just like a lightning flash. However, these three zombies had also been extremely ferocious individuals when they were alive. Therefore, each of them had excellent agility skill of their own. They also overtook the majority of experts in an instant.
"You had it coming. This guy has dared to rob the 'Sacred Spring of Life'. He deserves to be chased to the end of the world," The Zhuyan Ape wasn't very far. It had noticed that the target of these three zombies was Ye Xiwen now. Therefore, it started to take pleasure in Ye Xiwen's misfortune. The fact that it couldn't obtain the 'Sacred Spring of Life' was eating him inside. However, it was no longer depressed because of this fact. On the contrary, it felt glad because those three zombies would've been chasing it instead of Ye Xiwen if it had taken away the 'Sacred Spring of Life'. And, it reckoned that they would've caught him by now since its agility skill wasn't good enough. In fact, it would've been dead by now.
Soon, the other experts also felt glad as they also found out that these three zombies were chasing Ye Xiwen. They promptly got out of the way so that they didn't get injured. Those three zombies didn't have any interest in them for the time being. Everyone got ignored apart from a few unlucky ones that came in the way of those zombies.
These experts were suddenly feeling glad that they hadn't snatched the 'Sacred Spring of Life'. Otherwise, they would've died without a doubt…
Ye Xiwen felt that those zombies were getting increasingly close to him. Moreover, their auras became increasingly powerful as they approached him. Three ice-cold and formidable auras had firmly locked upon him. It was needless to say that it seemed that they wouldn't give up until they dismembered his body into ten-thousand pieces. They roared again and again, and their ominous energy soared everywhere.
The devil wings were a top-tier agility technique. However, Ye Xiwen was merely at the peak of sage realm. Those three monsters that were behind him had been suppressed by the rules of the Great Gas Collar. Otherwise, it wasn't clear what grade of monsters they were. In addition, their agility techniques were no joke. They were catching up little by little.
"This is bad. We will get caught sooner or later if things go on like this!" Ye Xiwen fully unleashed his devil wings. Wind and thunder loudly swept out from them. And, endless wind and thunder power surged towards those zombies that were behind him.
He didn't wish to give up the 'Sacred Spring of Life'. However, he didn't wish to get caught either. Therefore, he could only use such distractions to increase the distance between him and the zombies, and buy some time for himself.
The speed of the three zombies was extremely high. They had approached the tomb's exit in the blink of an eye. There was a whole wide world outside as long as Ye Xiwen managed to get out. However, could the worse come to the worst? Could they chase him even if he escaped from the Great Gas Collar?
