Chapter 701: Too Powerful

Li An looked up and saw a massive void rift slowly opening atop the altar, as if about to devour everything. At the same time, a powerful suction force came from the rift, making both of them feel dizzy and lightheaded.

"Not good, we have to leave here now!" Li An shouted, grabbing Guo Yao as he tried to escape the area.

But unfortunately, the suction was too powerful—their feet were as if bound by invisible chains, completely unable to move.

"Li An, what do we do?" Guo Yao's voice carried a hint of fear.

Li An took a deep breath, looked toward the void rift, and a flash of resolve crossed his eyes. "Guo Yao, don't be afraid. No matter what happens, I will protect you."

Saying this, Li An mobilized the power of the void core within him, trying to resist the suction. But unfortunately, this force was too powerful—he simply could not contend with it.

Just then, a familiar figure suddenly appeared before them. The figure radiated dazzling light from head to toe, like a deity descending from another world.

"Lilith?" Li An stared at the girl before him in surprise; he hadn't expected Lilith to appear at this moment.

Lilith looked at the two of them, her eyes full of worry. "Li An, Guo Yao, get out of here now! This force is not something you can resist!"

"But—" Li An tried to say something more, but was cut off by Lilith.

"No more buts! If you don't leave now, it'll be too late!" Lilith said, waving both hands. A powerful wave of energy enveloped the two of them, then shoved them hard.

Propelled by this force, Li An and Guo Yao shot out like arrows leaving the bowstring, far away from the void altar. Lilith, meanwhile, stayed where she was, her figure gradually growing blurred in the light of the void rift.

"Lilith!" Li An shouted, but his voice was drowned out by the roar coming from the void rift.

The two of them landed in an unfamiliar forest, where everything around them seemed so strange and eerie. Li An looked at Guo Yao, his eyes full of worry and gratitude.

"Thank you, Lilith," Li An said softly, though he knew Lilith probably could no longer hear him.

Amid chaos and void, Li An and Lei Nuo stood within a mysterious space constructed by the power of the void altar. The surrounding air seemed to solidify; every inch of space was filled with a dangerous aura, and all manner of strange energy fluctuations churned in the shadows, like lurking beasts ready to devour anyone at any moment.

"Li An, today is your end!" Lei Nuo's voice echoed through the empty space, carrying an undeniable resolve. His eyes were blood-red, as if burning with raging fury, and every word seemed squeezed through gritted teeth, brimming with hatred for Li An.

Li An looked coldly at Lei Nuo. His gaze was calm as water, yet concealed unfathomable depth and resolve. "Lei Nuo, your ambition and greed will only lead you to destruction. Today, let us end all of this together."

Before the words had faded, Lei Nuo's figure shot toward Li An like an arrow leaving the bowstring. His speed was so fast it nearly transcended the constraints of space, kicking up a violent energy storm as if to swallow Li An whole.

Li An didn't move, merely raised his hand slightly. A powerful force of void surged from his palm, transforming into an invisible barrier that easily blocked Lei Nuo's attack. The two forces collided in midair, producing a deafening roar that made the entire space tremble..
