Chapter 1598: Rift Opening

Rift Opening

"Hehehehehe..."

"Corruption!"

"Give him to me. Once I get this new toy, I will leave!"

Following Wen Ruoshui's description, Chen Ling replicated the laughter of the Calamity of Mockery from this era, then directly demanded the item from the Calamity of Corruption with an extremely domineering attitude.

The Calamity of Corruption was furious. The Calamity of Corruption struggled. The Calamity of Corruption handed it over.

After Chen Ling completed his full act, he placed the wooden puppet Chu Changqing back onto the gecko's back, then ordered the toad and the gecko to charge out once again.

The last time they entered the Bitter Flesh Forest, the numerous Calamities actively retreated to both sides. But this time, to save time, Chen Ling almost blindly bulldozed his way in. On the way out, the toad even smashed through several trunks of the Bitter Flesh Forest Calamities, drawing an angry warning from the Calamity of Corruption!

Although the Calamity of Corruption did not want to conflict with Chen Ling, it was still the master of the Bitter Flesh Forest. Watching Chen Ling act so recklessly in its territory, the anger in its heart had already accumulated to its limit.

"You don't even dare to protect your own subordinates. You really are trash!"

"Just wait! I will come looking for you to 'restock' again... After all, there is no better Toy Factory than yours here, hehehehehe..."

After saying this, Chen Ling laughed loudly and raised his hand, directly uprooting a Calamity sapling beside him. Right in front of the Calamity of Corruption and all the Calamities of the Bitter Flesh Forest, he tore it to pieces in midair.

Under this extremely arrogant provocation, all the Calamities in the Bitter Flesh Forest were enraged. They feared the Calamity of Mockery, but sometimes, anger could overcome all fear. The Calamity of Corruption directly let out an explosive roar of fury, its surrounding roots digging deep into the earth as it rapidly chased in the direction Chen Ling and the others had left!

"What are you waiting for? Run faster!" Chen Ling stomped heavily on the gecko's back.

Of course, Chen Ling wasn't tired of living when he deliberately enraged the Calamity of Corruption. Right now, no matter how much time they bought, it would be very difficult to return to Earth before the Calamity of Mockery arrived. Since that was the case, it was better to drive the tiger to swallow the wolf!

The gecko seemed clumsy and sluggish, but when it got serious, its speed was unexpectedly incredibly fast. It directly left the toad beside it far behind. Even though the Calamity of Corruption's roots were rushing wildly underground, they couldn't catch up to the gecko's speed. They could only fall behind bit by bit, disappearing from the sight of Chen Ling and the others.

After confirming that they had shaken off the pursuit of the Calamity of Corruption, Chen Ling immediately flipped down from the gecko and quickly began writing and drawing on the ground.

At the same time,

His mind began to contact Yang Xiao, who was on standby in deep space.

...

In the end, the Calamity of Corruption, having let Chen Ling and the others escape, furiously whipped its roots within the Bitter Flesh Forest. After all, it wasn't a World-Ending Calamity that specialized in speed and pursuit, so it was normal that it couldn't catch up to the gecko. But right now, it simply couldn't swallow the anger in its heart.

It made up its mind. If that damn Calamity of Mockery dared to come again next time, even at the risk of severe injuries, it would make the other party pay the price!

Just as the Calamity of Corruption was raging in sheer impotence,

A centipede wearing a skirt, carrying a pitch-black figure on its back, unhurriedly walked into the Bitter Flesh Forest from another direction.

When it sensed that familiar and nauseating aura, the Calamity of Corruption froze for a moment. It seemed it didn't expect this guy, having just angered it, to dare return immediately... Did it really not take it seriously at all??

The Calamity of Corruption let out a furious roar. The anger in its heart that had nowhere to vent poured out completely. Countless roots directly tore through the sky, whipping toward that pitch-black figure without a second word!!

The Calamity of Mockery, who had just been preparing to say something, froze slightly.

...

Boom—!!!

An earth-shattering explosion rang out from a certain direction in the distance.

"They really started fighting." Wen Ruoshui let out a slight sigh of relief. "As expected of Director Chen. This move of driving the tiger to swallow the wolf has bought us a massive amount of time."

Chen Ling didn't respond. At this moment, his mind had just finished communicating with Yang Xiao and returned to his body.

The Script was already written, and Fate Weaving had already been activated. Next, they just had to wait for Yang Xiao to open the Extra-dimensional Wake.

Furthermore, to be safe, Chen Ling didn't have him detonate all nine Extra-dimensional Wake Missiles at once, but only five... After all, Wen Ruoshui's restart couldn't cover Yang Xiao's side. In case they failed again this time, and Yang Xiao used up all the Extra-dimensional Wake Missiles, they would truly be trapped to death in the Gray World.

Chen Ling's gaze turned toward the Bitter Flesh Forest. The aftermath of the clash between the two World-Ending Calamities practically turned the entire world upside down. Moreover, perhaps because the Calamity of Corruption was fighting on its home turf, it engaged in a life-and-death struggle with the Calamity of Mockery without losing the slightest bit of ground.

"Director Chen, the door back... will it open nearby?" Wu Tongyuan looked at the barren surroundings, feeling somewhat uncertain.

Chen Ling said in a deep voice, "It might not open directly in front of us as I expected... but at least, it won't be too far away."

As his voice fell,

In the distant sky, a patch of nothingness suddenly began to churn violently, as if a force was scraping against the spatial barrier of this world, briefly tearing open a rift-like channel!

"It's here!!"

A sharp light flashed in Chen Ling's eyes!

Just as Chen Ling expected, with his current Fate Weaving, he probably couldn't accurately open the door right in front of them... so when he wrote the script, he vaguely used the word "nearby," which reduced the difficulty of modifying the timeline somewhat.

Now the door back was open, and it was within visible range. Chen Ling visually estimated it to be just a few kilometers away.

"Quick!! Head over there at full speed!" Chen Ling pointed at the channel and said to the gecko.

"—Ribbit!!"

The toad beside them did not intend to move. Ever since the aura of another "King" appeared, its gaze had been constantly wandering between Chen Ling and the direction of the Calamity of Mockery, as if suspecting something. At this moment, it was even resisting Chen Ling's command.

But the gecko seemed as if it hadn't heard its warning at all, nor did it sense the aura of the other "King" in the distance. The instant it received Chen Ling's command, it flew out at full speed, charging straight toward the rift in the sky!

Fierce winds howled past the ears of Chen Ling and the others. Chen Ling looked down at the sluggish gecko beneath him, a trace of complexity flashing through his eyes...

He gently rubbed his palm against the gecko's uneven back:

"Actually, you aren't stupid..."

"Right?"

The gecko continued to stare with those hollow eyes, as if it hadn't heard Chen Ling's voice, risking its life to approach that rift... It was as if even if it had to risk everything, it wanted to send this gentle and special "King" on its back away from this place.

But what made Chen Ling's heart sink was that, the instant the extra-dimensional rift appeared, the two World-Ending Calamities fighting in the distance also froze at the same time, seemingly looking in this direction.
