Chapter 1553 – How many can be saved
Just as the situation on the Western Region improved, An Zheng received a distress signal from Qu Liuxi and the others. The reason why An Zheng was so shocked was because he had thought of a possibility … Was the Buddha really important to Tan Shanse?
From the time the previous generation of Buddha created this abnormal space until now, it had been more than ten thousand years. In such a long period of time, would Tan Shanse really not know anything?
He clearly knew that An Zheng and the others were all in the Buddha Sect, but he actually personally launched an attack on the Buddha Sect. Even though he had the ancient half-god race king as his assistant, was his odds of victory really that high?
What kind of person was Tan Shanse? The details were clear.
As if he was really here to destroy the Buddhist Sect, he immediately left when An Zheng came out to save the Buddha. Why? With his personality, did he really only bring one helper to praise?
Did he really not expect that An Zheng would suddenly appear?
If there were any suspicious points, then the thing that An Zheng was most worried about … Actually, Tan Shanse’s main target was not the Buddha An Zheng, nor was it the mutated space, but Qu Liuxi and the others!
This was Tan Shanse’s tactic, to calculate the entire world.
Although the matters of the Western Regions had been resolved, the grudge between the monk and monkey had been resolved, the Buddha had also resolved his own mental knot, and the old kings of the Golden Crown, the Buddha and An Zheng had decided to join hands, this was a great harvest, with the three star realms, the space for mutation, and the space for going against the boat, it could save more lives, but An Zheng was not relaxed at all.
He and Monkey immediately took action and used the Blood Pearl Bracelet’s teleportation array to teleport to the Cyan Plains.
Teleportation was not something that could be determined in an instant. It was a distance of nearly a hundred thousand kilometers from the Western Region’s Great Desert to the shore of the Eastern Sea. Even if the Blood Pearl Bracelet s used all of their energy to create this teleportation space, it would still take at least an entire day to teleport there.
Too many unforeseen events would happen on this day.
Giving Tan Shanse a single day was more than enough to kill him.
An Zheng and Monkey were extremely anxious, but they were already at their fastest speed. If they relied on flying, they would need at least half a month to get there, and even if they did, An Zheng and Monkey would probably have already exhausted their Cultivation Power in that situation. Let alone fighting, they might not even be able to stand steadily.
And what was even more terrifying about Tan Shanse was that if An Zheng wanted to save Qu Liuxi and the others, he could take away the few remaining experts of the Buddhist Sect and attack the Buddhist Sect. At that time, whether it was Qu Liuxi and the others or the Buddhist Sect, An Zheng would definitely lose one side.
Often, the most terrifying worry was the correct one.
In the Azure Province.
In a cave.
Qu Liuxi, Gu Qianye, Du Shoushou, together with the Xiao Qi Dao, all five of them were already heavily injured, and the risks to their lives exceeded the limits of what they could bear. If not for the fact that someone had helped them in time, all five of them would have died.
The one who helped them, was Goddess Feng Shengxi.
Feng Shengxi was someone that he did not think of, because Tan Shanse did not even put this girl in his eyes. Ever since the East China Sea Yaochi was destroyed, this East China Sea Yaochi’s only successor was no longer worthy enough for Tan Shanse to care about.
However, there would always be a variety of variables in life, no one could always go smoothly, no one would never havard time.
When Qu Liuxi and the rest of the five were almost killed, Feng Shengxi had rushed over in time. With the East China Sea Yaochi’s Secret Treasure Sky Lock concealing their auras, he was able to dodge the attack, because the enemies they faced, were all at least at the Emperor Level.
Chen Shaobai and Du Shoushou’s injuries were the worst, because Du Shoushou had reached the Emperor Level, his physical body’s strength was already extremely terrifying, although it was worse than Chen Shaobai’s injuries, but the situation looked better. With the Emperor Level strength, he could repair his own body during his first attack, and although it was very slow, with Qu Liuxi, at least it would not worsen further.
But Chen Shaobai was different. He had not recovered his Emperor level strength, and his internal organs were injured. All the meridians in his body were injured.
When he was in danger, he used his own body to block this attack for Gu Qianye.
“Things are not going well.”
Qu Liuxi looked at the Chen Shaobai who had already fainted: “Although the medicinal pellets I have with me can temporarily stop his injuries, all of the medicinal herbs I have with me are not right, the power of that thing is too strange, I have never encountered it before, what I need the most now is the medicinal field in An Zheng’s Blood Pearl space.”
“That guy is too strong, we can’t teleport away, we can only wait for An Zheng to come.”
Du Shoushou said while gasping for air, “It can actually see through the Void Transference and can actually intercept it.”
and the rest immediately activated their teleportation abilities to An Zheng and the Blood Pearl Bracelet after discovering that they were definitely not his opponents. Originally, the teleportation abilities of the bracelet were one-way, but before this time, the Oldman Huo changed it once again and successfully changed it to two-way, but it was still useless.
That terrifying guy actually shattered the space with a single claw and stopped them while they were on their way back. If it wasn’t for Du Shoushou risking his life to defend against all of the attacks, they would have suffered even more severe injuries.
“Let’s wait.”
Feng Shengxi’s face did not look good either. “I hope the Sky Lock can fool it for a while. How long will it take for An Zheng to teleport over?”
“At least twenty-four hours.”
“Sigh …”
Feng Shengxi sighed. Twenty two hours, it was basically not enough time for the Sky Lock to bring them to hide.
“If only Huan Wan was here.”
She mumbled to herself subconsciously, then her heart felt a sharp pain … Huan Wan was the guardian of the Sky Lock and so was Huan Wan’s mother. The power of their bloodline had completely fused with the Sky Lock and could completely unleash the Sky Lock’s power. Even if the current Feng Shengxi was an Emperor Level Beast, his control over the Sky Lock was not as strong as Huan Wan’s.
Back then in the Infernal Realm, it was that cute and stubborn little girl who used his Sky Lock to save An Zheng and the others time and time again.
Hearing her words, everyone fell silent.
Huan Wan, how good is that little girl?
But when Xuan-Yuan had attacked East China Sea Yaochi, although Huan Wan hadn’t died, she was injured to the point where her skin was not complete. Now, she was suppressed by Purple Ivy using the Profound Ice Platform to ensure that her body didn’t continue to rot, but she still hadn’t found a suitable way to save her.
Qu Liuxi had once seen the stage protecting Huan Wan’s body and the location of her soul inside her body, but in reality, Huan Wan was already a dead person, just that Feng Shengxi was not willing to give up no matter what.
“If I can refine an Emperor level True Pill and reach the Emperor level, there might be a way to save her.”
Qu Liuxi said sorrowfully.
“How long can he last?”
Feng Shengxi looked at Chen Shaobai.
“If An Zheng can make it here within twenty-four hours, I can guarantee that he won’t die within twelve hours, but…”
Qu Liuxi could not continue, her eyes filled with sorrow.
Even if An Zheng could make it here within 24 hours, how could they avoid it? That horrifying guy outside was very sensitive, which was why he was able to intercept people during teleportation.
At first, they wanted to teleport directly to the Jizhou, but not long after they had activated their teleportation, they were interrupted by that thing which tore through the void. However, because of the slight deviation in its calculation, it did not harm anyone, but only cut off Qu Liuxi and the rest’s path.
“How long can the Sky Lock last?”
Gu Qianye asked Feng Shengxi.
“Two hours at most.”
“Let me think of a way.”
Gu Qianye stood up: “When the Sky Lock’s ability to conceal its presence dissipates, all of you will leave immediately.”
Qu Liuxi held her hand and shook his head, “I know what you’re thinking, but you can’t stop it.
Gu Qianye’s eyes reddened, as she looked at Chen Shaobai and Du Shoushou: “They are men, so they have to protect us time and time again. Right now, they have no way to continue to protect us, so it’s up to us to protect them.”
“Let me do it.”
Feng Shengxi took a deep breath. “I’ll go deal with it for a while, you guys go first.”
Gu Qianye shook her head: “That won’t do, the Sky Lock’s recovery time is around four hours, four hours can restore two hours of abilities, this is already the Sky Lock’s limit, if you’re not here, the Sky Lock’s recovery time is simply meaningless.”
Everyone became silent. For a moment, even the air was filled with a sense of despair.
“Roar!”
A furious roar came from the outside. It was obvious that the guy had gone berserk because he could not find Qu Liuxi and the others at the moment. The world outside started to shake more and more violently, even the mountains and rivers started to tremble.
Although it still could not determine the exact location of Qu Liuxi and the rest, it would not be able to protect itself from a single attack. As long as it could hit the cave, it was impossible for them to escape with their current strength.
“Tan Shanse is taking advantage of An Zheng’s absence to kill us all.”
Feng Shengxi said: “In An Zheng’s memories, it was once the few of us who fought that battle together. As long as Tan Shanse can get rid of the few of us, An Zheng will have no one to support him in the future.
With regards to Tan Shanse, there was actually nothing much to say. He could even be chopped into pieces.
However, if he wanted to hack Tan Shanse inthousand pieces, how could that be easy?
“There’s still about an hour left.”
Feng Shengxi looked at Gu Qianye. “Let’s not fight anymore, you will delay the first battle by half an hour and then it will be me. The only ones left to fight are you and me … If you can delay for four hours, Sky Lock can endure for another two hours, and then it will be me … If I can delay it for another four hours, then the Sky Lock would have recovered. This way, it can be counted as having lasted for more than six hours.
Gu Qianye vigorously nodded her head: “Alright, we’ll protect them all if we can save a few.”
She and Feng Shengxi looked at each other, with only determination in their eyes.
