Chapter 619: Chapter 155: Open the Umbrella_2
Or perhaps… the entire Changye!
He couldn’t die here!
On the snow-covered ground, a faint scent of blood wafted through the air as Shen Li dragged his injured body, pressing forward quickly… He needed to find an ally, at least one, to inform them about the current situation.
One after another, the frozen silver mountains, towering into the clouds, emitted a frigid, snow-white chill.
Shen Li’s lips turned pale and dry.
So did his expression.
He seed to feel a “chill” that seeped into his bones… This was a coldness imbued with Silent Annihilation, penetrating his spirit, as if to eternally freeze one’s soul.
He was lucky that after fleeing from the mountain rock he was on… Xu Yan didn’t pursue him.
But his luck was also bad because, after walking for a full twenty minutes, he had not seen a single figure.
Shen Li was starting to despair.
Finally, Shen Li leaned against a protruding boulder, struggling to control his breathing. Perhaps it was due to the increasing blood loss… Or maybe it was the Silent Annihilation carried by the snowflakes, but he was already feeling dizzy, and his vision was growing increasingly blurred.
But… footsteps ca through the snow.
Those footsteps were sowhat familiar.
Shen Li tried hard to turn his head and saw a tall figure wrapped in a crane cloak. His nearly despaired heart finally saw a glimr of hope.
His pale and trembling lips eked out a voice.
“Zou… Senior Brother!”
The voice was not loud.
But in the desolate Snowfield, it was piercingly sharp.
The Wind Snow montarily congealed—
The figure in the crane cloak slowly turned his head, furrowing his brows and looking in the direction of the boulder.
“Junior Brother?”
This figure was none other than Zou He.
He slowly approached the rocks and saw Shen Li’s condition; his expression imdiately turned ugly. His large hands pressed against Shen Li’s back… where the flesh was torn, nearly exposing the bone.
Warm “power” flowed continuously from Zou He’s palms.
His ability was known as “Water Orator,” capable of both offense and defense, with extrely strong single-target healing powers. It could not only heal himself but others as well.
Only… Shen Li’s injuries were anything but simple.
Both palms and his back looked as though they had endured an explosion, “blown open” as such, the flesh blurred… At this mont, hundreds of strands of violent Extraordinary Essence, like silver needles, entered Shen Li’s flesh after the “explosion,” rushing wildly through his blood within his body.
Even the likes of Iron Eater could barely withstand such an injury from inside out.
Soon enough.
One after another, the raging powers were completely extracted by Zou He’s “Water Orator.”
After completing all this, the self-healing ability of Iron Eater began to take rapid effect.
Shen Li leaned against the boulder, his back already soaked with sweat.
He felt… the intention of Silent Annihilation was leaving him.
He had escaped from the brink of death.
Zou He asked with a gloomy face, “Who did this?”
The person who struck the blow was extrely cruel.
If he hadn’t encountered him, wouldn’t his Junior Brother have died in the mausoleum?!
“Xu Yan…”
Shen Li’s voice was hoarse as he said, “Senior Brother Li Chong… Senior Sister Yuan Yu, they’re all dead… Besides them, many, many others…”
Zou He was taken aback.
He could hardly believe his ears.
After arriving at the mausoleum.
He was alone, exploring many places… Everywhere he went was deathly still, and he had thought it was the special rules of the Disaster Realm that had isolated everyone, hence the solitude.
But the truth was, many Transcendents who entered the mausoleum were already dead!
“Was it just Xu Yan alone?”
Zou He squinted his eyes and spoke coldly.
As far as he knew, among those who entered the mausoleum, there were Titled Level individuals, and even the slightly weaker had battle strength like his own, reaching the Tenth Realm as Fourth-order Transcendents.
Xu Yan… Based on the images from the streets, was at most a Third-order, Seventh Layer. Even if he was a prodigy capable of cross-tier combat, his strength would not exceed Eighth or Ninth Layer.
“Maybe… there were more. But those I saw, they should all be Xu Yan’s doing; he wants to fra Gu Shen…”
Shen Li recounted everything he had witnessed and heard.
Zou He listened quietly until the end.
He said gravely, “I understand the situation.”
He didn’t doubt the truth of what his Junior Brother had told him.
Because he knew that Shen Li, their Junior Brother, was the most innocent-minded among their Master’s disciples, whose heart was set on cultivation alone and devoid of any wicked thoughts.
However…
From this information, he vaguely noticed so inconsistencies.
For example, how could Xu Yan have the strength to hunt down so many Transcendents?
Or, even if Xu Yan was S-ranked, how could he possess more than one type of power?
“You… rest for a while.”
Zou He stood up and calmly said, “Senior Brother will go to the Snow Rock now… to find that Xu Yan.”
Shen Li tried to lift himself up, wanting to set off with his Senior Brother, but as soon as he exerted force, the barely-ford shadow of Iron Eater started to dissipate. His spiritual power had been vastly drained during the previous exertions.
Thus, Shen Li could only sit against the boulder, silently watching as his Senior Brother stood up… and walked in the direction he had co from.
The Wind Snow falling at that mont felt as heavy as a thousand pounds on his body. He felt that he could not resist the weariness, and his eyes uncontrollably closed.
And when he opened them again.
It seed only a few minutes had passed, maybe ten minutes?
Shen Li saw a wavering figure slowly erge from the distant snowstorm.
