Chapter 2168: Star-Shining Eternity 5

~6 min read 1,189 words

Huh? Not dead?

All around, the blade-arm captain who launched the attack stared with his mouth open in surprise; for a moment, even the surrounding rule power forgot to be mobilized a second time.

He noticed the white light on Zhang Tie's head, obviously he had taken down many Fifth Stages. But he really didn't expect that even his War Star Peak attack could be blocked by this giant bear.

You should know, most God Ascendants pursue extreme killing power; otherwise, even a strong Fourth Stage would struggle to fight a Fifth Stage. God Ascendants are about bursting forth, relying on combat power far above their peers to clash with Fifth Stages.

And this kind of God Ascendant who can hard-resist Fifth Stage rule power—he's still seeing it for the first time.

"Interesting... How many God Ascendants is this? Three or four?"

After putting away his surprise, the blade-arm captain merely gave a brief surprised snort before coldly laughing, not caring about anything.

This bear's strength is indeed not bad, but a large part of that is because he's not good at ranged combat and didn't go all out. This level of strength isn't enough to make him wary of anything.

Moreover, the bait they wanted seems to have been taken.

Only see, on both sides of Wen Ya and the others, the two blade-arms that had rushed in for close combat were already waving their four arms, grinning savagely as they attacked.

Blade after blade of wind like substance, merely grazing Luo En's body, it sliced open half of his body. Zhang Tie was near death, Gao Tian was sealed, Jiang Haochen was absent. In an instant, the situation rapidly deteriorated to the extreme.

Moreover, Wen Ya, who was fleeing with the crowd, now saw four blade streams slashing toward her.

Her strength was the weakest; she could only assist others in combat, and was obviously being treated as prey by two Fifth Stages.

White light filled her entire view, and before the fierce blade streams even reached her, it tore her skin with countless baby-mouth-sized blood marks.

Without a doubt, being hit by even one of them would surely kill her.

Yet facing this certain-death situation, Wen Ya not only did not struggle, but instead desperately transferred her mental power to Gao Tian.

There's no escaping.

Although Mo Ling might be nearby, likely ready to act at any moment, Wen Ya didn't think Mo Ling would save her.

She knew that if Mo Ling came, he would stay with the team and save people, purely because of Lin An. And she, obviously, was not within Mo Ling's 'protection' range.

For some reason, seeing the blade streams instantly shatter her outward-expanded mental power shield, she, facing death at such close range, actually felt a bit dazed and calm.

Still going to die...?

She's still useless.

She's different from Mo Ling, Gao Tian, and Zhang Tie; she actually has no talent, she's just an ordinary person Lin An casually saved. Perhaps long ago she should have died in a zombie's mouth.

"Lin An.."

Wen Ya gave a bitter laugh; for some reason, her only regret at this moment was not being able to see Lin An reach the summit.

The next second, a calm voice suddenly sounded.

"Won't die."

"Hum"

In that instant, Mo Ling, who had appeared at some unknown time, suddenly appeared before her, and in 0.0001 second pulled her into the space.

"Boom!!!"

By a hair's breadth, the four blade streams seemed to strike only air, exploding in vain.

At the same time, the blade-arm captain who sensed the spatial fluctuation, seeing his subordinate's failed attack, not only didn't get angry but laughed.

"Good."

Their fish have been forced out.

"Act like you didn't react, let them run!"

"Mo Ling..!?"

Inside the Necromantic Space, Wen Ya, who had been suddenly pulled in, looked in shock at the pallid Mo Ling.

She never expected Mo Ling would still come to her rescue.

Without heeding Wen Ya's surprise, Mo Ling's body quickly drew out strands of necromantic power; in the blink of an eye, as if activating, it pulled Gao Tian and the others from outside all at once into the space.

"Bang bang! Bang! Bang"

Everyone fell one after another from the high point of the Necromantic Space; Luo En, the most severely injured, was like a severed big fish, his upper and lower halves landing in different places. Though painful, with a Fourth Stage physique, these injuries were not enough to be fatal.

Lying on his back on the ground, Zhang Tie, who had just escaped a near-death state, looked at Mo Ling who had saved them, first overjoyed and excited, then his expression changed.

Meanwhile, Gao Tian beside him urgently asked:

"Mo Ling, didn't you say to avoid meeting up as much as possible!? Talk after we get there! You coming now means...!"

"Can't drag it out."

Without waiting for Gao Tian to finish, Mo Ling shook his head, his black eyes full of heaviness.

Only see her take a deep breath, then the next second she tilted her head back and drank a bottle of burning potion; instantly, the Necromantic Space's speed continuously surged, even luxuriously launching consecutive short-range teleports.

"They can't wait any longer; if we don't meet up, they'll attack."

"Don't ask questions now; after we reach the vicinity of the Eternal Summit, you must immediately run around those coordinates! Even if you can't escape, don't resist—I'll draw their main force away!"

"Give me all the potions; without potions as bait, they won't believe me!"

Speaking at breakneck speed, with no time to explain too much to others, Mo Ling suddenly shuddered and swayed; only see her lower her head, bite and crush the string of black crystals on her wrist, swallow them, and then her face regained a hint of unnatural color.

After her gaze seemed to pierce the Necromantic Space, suppressing the faint red welling up in her eyes, Mo Ling then raised her hand to signal everyone not to worry about her:

"Those coordinates are the nearest place to where Lin An emerges; as long as you don't stray far, once he comes out your safety will be guaranteed."

"After Lin An saves you, tell him not to worry about me; this bunch couldn't kill me even if they wanted to!"

Hearing Mo Ling prepare to draw the pursuers alone, Gao Tian opened his mouth wanting to say something, but bitterly realized he couldn't say anything.

Yes, having Mo Ling take the potions and lead away those five squads is best; without potions, they'd only have threat value.

Thus, before Mo Ling is killed, they'll instead gain temporary safety. Once Lin An emerges, those remaining Fifth Stages won't be a problem.

The atmosphere was oppressive, making one feel suffocated.

Especially for Wen Ya, she knew why Mo Ling wanted them to convey this message to Lin An rather than say it himself.

She couldn't help but admit, no matter from which angle, Mo Ling is the most...

Give me the medicine!

They're here, I'm going to dispel the space!
