Chapter 377: Chase and Escape
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
With just a thought, a spatial storm was lifted from the spot.
The storm landed on the island and turned the entire island into ashes. All the living things on the island were completely gone.
After clearing all traces of this place, Vicky once again released his perception.
Then, he effortlessly sensed that a teleportation formation had been activated in the original location, along with the residual energy fluctuations.
“Did they escape through the teleportation formation?”
Indeed, that’s what happened.
Five minutes was enough for Jiu Han to pack up everything in this place and teleport into the distance through the teleportation array formation.
However, this could not escape Vicky’s eyes.
It was even to the extent that Vicky could sense through the fluctuations of the teleportation formation where the destination of the teleportation was .
Looking back, Vicky’s gaze darkened.
He sensed that everyone on the island had already been teleported to the Eternal Clan’s territory through the teleportation formation.
“Troublesome.”
Vicky did feel some trouble.
The main issue was Eternity over there. Once Eternity sensed that something was wrong, the opportunity on Lu Ming would probably have nothing to do with him.
“But it’s not a big problem.”
At most, he would need to act more cautiously, make things a bit more complicated, and waste a little more time.
“Good things take time.”
Vicky comforted himself and casually tore through space, entering into it and disappearing.
Jiu Han did not have any special thoughts when choosing the teleportation destination to be the Eternal Clan’s territory.
He just wanted to stay as far away from here as possible. After all, the further away, the safer it would be.
And the Eternal Clan’s Pingdu Province was the farthest stop the teleportation formation could reach.
In the howling cold wind, Jiu Han sighed deeply.
He could not help but take out the Boshi Tower and ask softly.
“What should we do next?”
A response quickly came from Boshi Tower.
“Continue to move away from this place…”
It was Lu Ming’s voice.
Without a doubt, at this moment, Lu Ming had already become the core that everyone present could rely on.
He was both their protector and decision maker.
Hearing Lu Ming’s words, Jiu Han thought briefly and spoke, “What’s the goal?”
“We must have a goal… Otherwise, if we keep running, Vicky will catch up sooner or later.”
Lu Ming naturally understood this logic.
However, Lu Ming really could not come up with a definite goal now.
The Black Mist Zone was vast, seemingly with many places to hide.
However, in front of a true Spirit Realm Expert, the Black Mist Zone was too small.
As long as he was determined and persistent, Vicky would eventually catch up with Lu Ming.
Suddenly, a weak voice sounded from the side.
“Go to the Ten Thousand Devil Abyss.”
Jiu Han turned abruptly to the source of the voice and saw that the person who spoke was the Desolate Demon Lord, who was supported by Bai Zhe.
Perhaps sensing that Lu Ming was also paying attention to him, the Desolate Demon Lord heaved a sigh of relief and said, “Go to the Dead Sea under the Ten Thousand Devil Abyss. Go over there.”
Lu Ming’s voice came from the Boshi Tower,
“Is there any reason for this?”
“Yes,” the Desolate Demon Lord said. “The terrain of the Dead Sea is complex. Moreover, the Dead Sea is filled with black mist that can isolate the perception of Source Power Transcendent beings.”
Lu Ming, “Vicky is not your so-called Transcendent being with a Source Power system.”
His Source Power system did not have any flaws, so he was not restrained by the Anomalies.
“I understand. However, the Black Mist can still weaken his perception ability. Coupled with the complex terrain over there, along with many anomalies, the Dead Sea is really a viable option to avoid Vicky’s pursuit.”
“I see…” Lu Ming murmured and quickly made up his mind and said, “Then let’s do as you say.”
Jiu Han, with a kind heart, took away most of the survivors on the small island. In a sense, Jiu Han’s kindness had helped Lu Ming a lot.
With the proficiency of many array formation masters, they could quickly set up a one-time teleportation array. The Desolate Demon Lord could provide them with accurate coordinates for the Frozen Land and even the Ten Thousand Devil Abyss.
In just three minutes, the teleportation array was already formed.
Jiu Han put everyone into the Boshi Tower, stepped into the teleportation array, and with a flash of light, disappeared without a trace.
In the second after Jiu Han teleported away, a spatial rift suddenly cracked open above.
Vicky’s figure leaped out and looked at the teleportation array below that was gradually dimming. He could not help but frown.
“You ran quite fast.”
With a shake of his hand, Vicky wanted to use a heaven-defying method like Time Reversal to forcefully pull Lu Ming and the others back. However, considering that this place was within the range of Eternity’s perception, Vicky did not do so.
While he was hesitating, Jiu Han had already brought the Boshi Tower and entered into the area covered by the black mist.
Standing in front of the teleportation array, Vicky simply deduced and sensed what had happened.
He could not help but mutter to himself,
“This is going to be troublesome.”
What Lu Ming and the others did not know was that the black mist surging out of the Dead Sea also had a certain restraining effect on people like Vicky— at least, once he entered the area covered by the black mist, Vicky’s time reversal ability would definitely have no room to play.
Moreover, Vicky was unwilling to venture deep into the area covered by the black mist…
After much thought, greed defeated rationality.
“A quick resolution should be fine.”
As he muttered, Vicky’s figure flashed and he disappeared again.
Lu Ming couldn’t have imagined that he had just escaped from the Black IVList Zone, and within less than a month, he would return…
Outside, Jiu Han and the Desolate Demon Lord changed shifts. And it was the Desolate Demon Lord’s turn to carry the Bosta Tower through the Black Mist Zone.
There was a mutant living on the Desolate Demon Lord’s body, allowing him to hide from the tracking of anomalies. With the concealment array of the Boshi Tower, he could move freely through the black mist without alarming the anomalies.
In Lin Feng’s manor.
Lu Ming added another point, raising his strength from level eight of the Physique Realm to level nine of the Physique Realm.
The number of blood patterns increased from 288 to 576.
The number of divine source points surged once again, and with the surging divine source points, it meant that Vicky’s clone’s divinity shattered again, leaving only a solitary one.
And the strength of a Vicky’s clone with one divinity was almost no different from an ordinary clan guardian god. With this strength, it was definitely impossible to break the array formations set up by Lu Ming.
Unfortunately, after reaching level nine of the Physique Realm, it was no longer possible to forcibly increase levels with divine source points.
To advance to Spirit Realm, even for Lu Ming who had the system, he could only rely on time to slowly complete the blood pattern spiritualization process.
Opening his eyes to look at Vicky, Lu Ming discovered that Vicky’s clone seemed to have accepted its fate.
Sensing Lu Ming’s gaze, Vicky’s expression was gloomy. After a moment, he sneered, “You’re quite good at running, huh?”
Up till now, Vicky’s main body had yet to catch Lu Ming.
This was enough to prove how fast Lu Ming ran.
Lu Ming no longer paid any attention to Vicky.
Although he wanted to get some information from Vicky—such as what exactly was going on in the Black Mist Zone or the general guidelines for cultivation after reaching Spirit Realm.
However, it seemed that Vicky clearly did not have the mood to chat at the moment, so Lu Ming decided to ignore him for now and slowly trained him in the future.
With a thought, Lu Ming returned to his manor, his gaze penetrating through the Boshi Tower to observe the outside world.
The outside world was filled with black mist.
The Desolate Demon Lord held the Boshi Tower in his hand and swiftly moved through the Black Mist Zone. The surrounding anomalies around him regarded him as if he were nothing..
