The stone slabs underfoot trembled violently, accompanied by a burst of flas and deafening explosions, shattering the century-old stone bridge into pieces.
Spiritual Qi quickly circulated within Lin Tian's body, filling him up like a hydrogen balloon, making his entire being feel light.
However, he was still holding Liou Qingcheng in his arms, unable to move.
Bang~
With a massive explosion, a huge rock flew up rcilessly hitting Lin Tian's back.
Even though he was wearing a bulletproof vest, the rock couldn't harm his skin, but the internal injuries it caused were imasurable.
Puh...
Another mouthful of blood spat from his lips, and his entire deanor beca dispirited.
Suddenly, the ground beneath Lin Tian's feet vanished, and they both plunged into the water.
Splash...
With a large splash of water, Lin Tian's body was enveloped in a chill, as water instantly rushed into his ears, nose, and mouth due to disrupted breathing.
He began to cough violently, continually passing Spiritual Qi into Liou Qingcheng's body.
To prevent water from entering her body and keep her from becoming cold.
Their bodies, along with the falling rubble, sank toward the riverbed.
It wasn't that he couldn't float, but that he did so deliberately.
Knowing that the shattered stone bridge overhead and the falling debris could take their lives.
Only by sinking to the riverbed, using the buoyancy and thrust of the river, could Lin Tian gain ti to buffer and dodge.
If they floated on the surface, it would be useless, and they would be smashed to pieces by those fierce stones.
"Hoo..."
Not only was it cold all around, but it was also pitch black. Lin Tian had to release Spiritual Qi, sensing the water currents to predict the positions of the falling stones, then maneuver his body to constantly evade.
One second, two seconds... after more than ten seconds, Lin Tian's body continued to sink toward the riverbed, and as the water pressure increased, the force of the falling stones diminished.
Despite this, Lin Tian's back and shoulders still suffered several hits, his condition weakening to an extre.
Rumble...
The explosions continued unabated, with an unknown amount of explosives concealed below the stone bridge. Within two seconds, flas engulfed the entire bridge, causing boulders to shatter, and the entire ground trembled with it.
Bai Wuchang and Xiaogang stood by the dam, smiling as they watched the scene.
"Do you think those two can survive?" Xiaogang asked with a smile, feeling an indescribable satisfaction at the thought of Lin Tian perishing in this great river.
Bai Wuchang chuckled, then his expression turned grim, "If they can still survive this, I'll write my na Bai Wuchang backward!"
"Forget writing your na backward; if they survive, I'll stream myself eating shit!" Xiaogang also made a ruthless remark.
Bai Wuchang glanced at him, honestly curious to see how he would do it.
"With Lin Tian dead, our first step is complete. Without him, the resistance to our plan will be much less," Bai Wuchang said.
Xiaogang nodded, "The next step is that Chen Moxiang from the Security Managent Institute. That woman is also annoyingly persistent, find an opportunity to kill her!"
"Don't rush, let's set a trap for her and see if she'll fall into it."
"If Chen Moxiang is also dead, the Institute won't react so quickly. By then, we'll be one step closer to our plan." Xiaogang pondered for two seconds, then asked, "Should we report to Mr. Zhuge about this first?"
Upon hearing this, Bai Wuchang's expression darkened further, and after a few seconds of silence, he sighed, "Today's events were a miscalculation on my part, losing so many experts from Sakula Country as well as my own brother... But no worries, if our plan succeeds, Mr. Zhuge will not bla us."
After hearing this, Xiaogang breathed a sigh of relief, feeling as if he had dodged a bullet.
...
Gurgle... Gurgle...
As ti passed, Lin Tian had already descended to a depth of twenty ters while holding Liou Qingcheng.
Twenty ters is nearly the limit for an ordinary person without tools. Lin Tian could dive further, but Liou Qingcheng couldn't. The Spiritual Qi was also nearing exhaustion.
There were two advantages to this depth: first, the buoyancy and force of the water would significantly slow the speed and impact of the falling rocks, and second, it wasn't as turbulent as the surface.
Lin Tian tightly embraced Liou Qingcheng, swimming forward when suddenly a huge rock fell; if it hit, it would an death or severe injury!
At the critical mont, Lin Tian turned his body, and the rock slipped past the edge of his shoulder at an incredible speed.
In an instant, Lin Tian's feet stepped on it, and with a strong push, he shot toward the surface like an arrow from a bow.
Floating on the surface, Lin Tian found himself carried far from the original location by the current, with only a faint glimpse of the forr stone bridge.
The stone bridge had been blasted to ruins, with all its surface turning to fragnts falling into the water, leaving only six pillars standing to testify to its existence.
Lin Tian had no leisure to worry about this now, holding Liou Qingcheng as he slowly swam toward the riverbank.
Unfortunately, the riverbank was built with high embanknts. If Lin Tian were alone, he could climb up using Spiritual Qi, but with Liou Qingcheng in his arms, it was impossible.
He followed the current for another half an hour before reaching a place where he could get ashore.
Once ashore, Lin Tian was utterly exhausted. The Spiritual Qi in his Sea of Qi had long been depleted. If not for having cleared three and a half of the Eight Extraordinary ridians, he would have already died at the hands of those practitioners and Hei Wuchang, not to ntion the subsequent explosion.
Besides the emptiness of his Sea of Qi, his physical condition was dire too, having been pumled by stones nurous tis, the pain making him grimace and nearly faint.
"Qingcheng, Qingcheng..."
Lin Tian shook Liou Qingcheng's body vigorously, but still, she didn't wake up, with no breath or pulse.
Suddenly, Lin Tian fiercely pressed his lips to Liou Qingcheng's, which were still warm and sweet, resembling soft jelly.
At this point, Lin Tian had no lewd thoughts, rely performing simple artificial respiration, passing his remaining Spiritual Qi into Liou Qingcheng's body, stimulating her organs, and coaxing her pulse.
This was Lin Tian's last gamble; if even Spiritual Qi couldn't save her, then...
The kiss lasted a full two minutes, and the bit of Spiritual Qi Lin Tian had recovered was all given to Liou Qingcheng.
"Damn it, wake up! You promised to have my children! Liou Qingcheng, you must wake up!"
