Ancient Dragon Elephant Technique Chapter 1276: 10: Fleeing for Their Lives

Capítulo 1276: Chapter 10: Fleeing for Their Lives

Even figures as formidable as the Yin Yang Three Elders were coughing up blood from the aftermath of hundreds of high-level talismans exploding, showcasing the terrifying power of those explosions.

Lin Feng was also affected by the blast, but since he was relatively far away and his physical body was extrely resilient, his injuries were not severe.

However, the situation for the others wasn’t ideal.

Aside from Master Daoo and Ghost Elder, who were relatively unscathed, Wumu and Nalan Zhiruo were already injured, and now their wounds were aggravated.

Yue Liuxi had also been hurt by the energy shockwave from the talisman explosions, her face was deathly pale.

“In the face of disaster, everyone should fend for themselves and escape separately,” Ghost Elder sneered and darted into a passage on the left.

Lin Feng also picked a passage and rushed through it swiftly.

He hoped to find a way out, but discovered that many of the intersecting passages had collapsed due to the earlier talisman explosions, blocking what were once clear paths.

Furthermore, seven or eight gigantic Void Devouring God Worms were in hot pursuit, forcing Lin Feng to flee in a different direction.

“Wang Xiaonan, you’re ruthless! Next ti I see you, I’m going to deal with you a hundred tis over until you can’t walk!”

Lin Feng thought angrily.

…

He dashed back and forth through the intersected passages but couldn’t shake off the Void Devouring God Worms chasing him, nor could he find a way out, making his expression grow increasingly grim.

“Help…”.

As he passed a crossroads, Lin Feng spotted Nalan Zhiruo.

This ice-cold woman was about to be overtaken by a Void Devouring God Worm.

She was already injured, and now her condition was worsening.

With her frosty personality, she would never ask for help unless it was absolutely necessary.

Swish.

The Void Devouring God Worm pursuing her swung its massive claws, sending a blast of Void Power towards her.

Boom!

The force from the void struck Nalan Zhiruo hard on the back.

She was flung hundreds of ters away.

Nalan Zhiruo landed heavily on the ground and rolled four or five ters before coming to a stop, unmoving and it’s uncertain whether she’s alive or dead.

Lin Feng rushed over and found that Nalan Zhiruo was still breathing.

He cradled Nalan Zhiruo’s waist, pulling her into his embrace.

Then he started running into the distance.

Lin Feng sprinted wildly through a dozen more passages, but all ways out were blocked, leaving him with no success.

As Lin Feng reached a crossing in the passages, he encountered Yue Liuxi coming from the left.

“All blocked, that little witch Wang Xiaonan is not giving us a way to live.”

Yue Liuxi’s delicate face was a mix of anger and resentnt as the two converged and ran forward.

Behind them, the Void Devouring God Worms gathered as well, more than thirty of them in pursuit.

Lin Feng asked, “What about the others? Have you seen them?”

Yue Liuxi shook her head, “Who knows where they’ve gone? They might have been eaten by those monsters.”

The two searched several unexplored passages, but still found no way out.

“I’m at my limit, and I think you are too. Let’s ditch this woman.” Yue Liuxi suggested.

She was naturally referring to Nalan Zhiruo.

But Lin Feng did not abandon Nalan Zhiruo.

Instead, he chose a path leading deeper into the passageways.

“In tis of crisis, you’re still lugging around dead weight?”

Yue Liuxi mocked Lin Feng.

Lin Feng replied, “If it were you, I’d save you too!”

“Just full of sweet talk.” Yue Liuxi scoffed.

Lin Feng stated, “That’s my heartfelt belief. We are companions who have faced life and death together. I’m not soone who abandons my comrades.”

Yue Liuxi’s eyes flickered intensely for a mont, she opened her mouth to speak but couldn’t find the words.

In the cultivator world, she had seen too many people abandon familial ties, love, and friendship for the sake of benefits.

But Lin Feng was the first of his kind she had ever seen.

“Companions can sotis betray you.” Yue Liuxi remarked.

“The year I joined an academy to cultivate, my family was very proud. My uncle told that when out in the world, many tis, you should choose to trust the companions by your side because sotis, a companion can save your life.” Lin Feng shared.

“Your uncle’s words aren’t completely right, yet not entirely wrong. Companions can be trusted sotis, but others, you need to be wary of.” Yue Liuxi responded.

Lin Feng nodded, “So, my uncle advised to have the judgnt to discern which companions to trust and which not to, and I believe that Nalan Zhiruo, despite her cold deanor, is quite a decent person.”

“Seems you consider your uncle’s advice your life’s motto. Is your uncle a formidable figure? Where is he? Could it be he’s a renowned powerhouse?” Yue Liuxi asked curiously.

“He’s an ordinary person, but also a great one. He was killed while saving .” Lin Feng’s voice was somber.

“I’m sorry to have brought up such a painful mory.”

“It’s okay…”

“Hey, we’re heading towards the depths of the cave; are you trying to get us killed?” Yue Liuxi, who had been running with Lin Feng, suddenly noticed sothing amiss.

Lin Feng wasn’t running outwards, but deeper instead.

“We’re almost burned out; let’s see if there’s a path to survival in the depths.” He said aloud.

Dozens of Void Devouring God Worms were closing in on them from behind.

Lin Feng and Yue Liuxi fled deeper, their bodies weakening, almost caught up.

“I can’t hold on.” Yue Liuxi’s face was ashen.

The Void Devouring God Worms were now less than twenty ters behind them.

Lin Feng was also at his limit.

“There’s a narrow cave ahead, we’ll hide in there…” Lin Feng pointed forward.

The cave was unique because the whole mountain was protected by a strong prohibition, making the mountain incredibly sturdy.

Shattering the mountain body was too difficult, unless soone like Wang Xiaonan detonated hundreds of high-level Jade Talismans to blast it open.

So hiding in the cave, it would be difficult for the Void Devouring God Worms to break in.

“Screech…” The foremost Void Devouring God Worm seed to realize Lin Feng and Yue Liuxi’s plan and let out a piercing roar before leaping forward, its massive claws reaching for Lin Feng and Yue Liuxi.

“No, we’re dood!” Yue Liuxi’s face turned ashen.

“Shrink the Ground into Inches.” Lin Feng, right arm holding Nalan Zhiruo and left arm wrapped around Yue Liuxi, expended his last mana to unleash the Divine Skill of Shrinking Ground, his body turning into a shadow dashing towards the cave, the claws of the Void Devouring God Worm tore through Lin Feng’s skin, blood flowing, had he been half a step slower, his body might have been ripped apart by the sharp claws of the Void Devouring God Worm. Lin Feng narrowly escaped this life-and-death crisis.

Then, with Yue Liuxi and Nalan Zhiruo in his arms, he dashed into the narrow cave, where he nearly collapsed from fatigue, lying on the ground, gasping heavily.

Lin Feng’s back was burning with pain, but his heart was filled with relief, knowing he had narrowly escaped, another mont slower and he might now be a cold corpse.
