693 The Speed of Life and Death (1/2)

In the sky and on the ground, a large number of monstrous beasts began to move at the same time. Tens of thousands of beasts left their dens. Although Mo Wen was horrified, the scene was also somewhat majestic.

”F*ck.” Even Mo Wen could not help but utter a profanity.

It was too cruel. The Tower Spirit was too cruel!

Mo Wen now understood what the crimson sun meant. It was gathering all the Beast King monstrous beasts to initiate an attack against the remaining human ancient martial art practitioners.

The four of them were now each enveloped by a layer of crimson light. It would be impossible for them to hide.

Initially, Mo Wen had thought that this task would continue smoothly until the time ran out. Now he realized he had been naïve. The Tower Spirit had no intention of letting them complete the task easily at all.

Although there was only an hour left, Mo Wen had no confidence at all that he could survive for long enough against the Beast Wave of the entire Beast King Island.

Just an hour.

How difficult would it be to survive for an hour while being hunted by a large number of monstrous beasts?

Mo Wen laughed bitterly. This new difficulty made him unable to foresee the final result. This was the first time since he had received the task, that Mo Wen had no confidence in the outcome.

Cursing also sounded simultaneously from the other three people left on Beast King Island. Everyone felt that the Tower Spirit had gone too far. The Beast King Island was already perilous. Now, the Tower Spirit had summoned a Beast Wave to go against them.

Nangong Mingzhu stood on a mountain peak. Hidden under the mask, her gaze was serious. For the first time, panic flashed past her eyes.

Among all the human ancient martial art practitioners, her cultivation was ranked first. She was approaching the level of a Martial Arts Grandmaster. She was much stronger than the Mo Wen at his current level. However, even as an immortal cultivator, she did not seem to be confident about being able to survive a further hour on this island.

If her cultivation or her treasures were not restricted, she might stand a chance. However, right now, not only was her cultivation restricted, even many of the treasures that she brought with her had yet to be unsealed. Against such a wave of Beast Kings, whether or not she could survive most likely depended on luck.

”Damn it!”

A black-robed man, who was standing beside a lake, sent out a palm strike forcefully. A large area of the lake froze into ice around him. This man was none other than Chu Yuan, the leader of the Ghost Lair's team.

However, after venting his frustration, he noticed that the whole lake was disturbed. One by one, the Beast Kings which inhabited the water surfaced. They slowly surrounded him.

”This is going too far. Truly too far.”

Tan Qiyue was traversing a desert. His face was pale as he mumbled to himself. He was being chased by a pack of monstrous beasts. The pack included desert beast type Beast Kings, scorpion type Beast Kings, and lizard type Beast Kings. In the sky, eagle type Beast Kings could also be seen.

There were also some Beast Kings blocking his route ahead. Tan Qiyue had a sense that there was nowhere to run.

Mo Wen utilized the Glory of Wind. He constantly dodged all the creatures heading for him and concealed himself in the forest. One after another, Beast Kings appeared in the woods, besieging Mo Wen frenziedly.

Many Beast Kings hovered in the sky. Once in a while, they would pounce on Mo Wen, attacking him forcefully.

Mo Wen's face was pale. There was a blood stain at the corner of his mouth. He would most likely have been killed by now if he did not have a large number of Healing Lights with him. Fortunately, his cultivation had increased significantly when he killed the Five Colored Spider Beast King. If it had not, against such a lineup, Mo Wen believed that he absolutely would not have survived more than fifteen minutes.

A huge yellow tornado descended from the sky, directly crashing towards Mo Wen. Everywhere it passed was left in chaos.

A hand formed of coalesced energy that had been covering the sky suddenly flicked out, furiously grabbing at Mo Wen.

Out of nowhere, a blue light appeared near him. The gravity in the area it covered increased tenfold.

From time to time, the ground would collapse and meteors would fall.

The attack of one Beast King was rather frightening, let alone so many Beast Kings attacking simultaneously.

All the Beast Kings looked at Mo Wen with a greedy expression. They were salivating from the corners of their mouths, as though eating him could immediately cause them to ascend to become an immortal.

Mo Wen laughed bitterly. Nebulas enveloped him. He activated the Glory of Cloud to its limit. With a sway of his figure, illusions appeared in mid-air. Then, at the same time, he also unleashed the Glory of Wind, splitting apart and escaping in different directions, narrowly escaping the attacks of some of the Beast Kings.

However, he had just evaded one set of attacks, when another set descended. They seemed endless.

Mo Wen unleashed the Glory of Wind and the Glory of Cloud to their utmost limit. Although he could evade most of the attacks, there were still some attacks that he could not escape from. Every so often, he would abruptly be swept up by a gale, smashed by a falling meteor or be sent flying by an iron fist that came from nowhere.
