Chapter 1218: Proceeding to the Ice Goddess Hall (One)
Jian Chen and Nubis searched through the Darkness Divine Hall again after removing the Saint Tier Battle Skill, but it was a pity that they did not obtain anything else. Jian Chen was still very satisfied, however, since a complete Saint Tier Battle Skill was the greatest item he could have found.
Jian Chen and Nubis left the Darkness Divine Hall and returned to the other people’s side. They saw that the experts of the Bloodsword sect had already been waiting for quite some time, as they had already killed off the several thousand assassins of the Underworld sect.
“Sect master, where’s Luo Qi? And the sect master of the Underworld sect, Gu Zhen? I suspect that he’s still alive and probably hiding somewhere in the divine hall,” Jiang Wang asked courteously. He felt rather surprised when he did not see Luo Qi’s corpse.
“They’ve fled. I never thought that they hid a Space Gate in the divine hall,” Jian Chen said with some regret.
Rui Jin furrowed his brows slightly with that. He said, “In my Dragon’s Domain, Space Gates can’t form at all. How can they flee through a Space Gate? I’ll go check out the place where they used the ‘Space Gate.’” Rui Jin entered the ruined divine hall with that while Jian Chen and the others followed behind.
In the room Luo Qi and the old man had fled from, Rui Jin, Hong Lian, Hei Yu, Jian Chen, and the others stood around, examining the formation on the floor.
“This isn’t a Space Gate.” Hong Lian fixedly stared at the formation on the ground and realized that there was something wrong very quickly. Fixed Space Gates were similar to the formation on the ground, but there was an extremely clear difference between the two.
“Correct. This isn’t a Space Gate, but an ancient teleportation formation. I never thought that something like this would be here. No wonder they managed to flee my Dragon’s Domain,” said Rui Jin.
“An ancient teleportation formation?” Jian Chen murmured. He was filled with curiosity, and even Jiang Wang and Nubis became doubtful.
Rui Jin explained, “I’ve only found information regarding the teleportation formation from my inherited memories. These formations only appeared in ancient times and were extremely valuable. Not only do they have similar uses as Space Gates, able to teleport a certain number of people or things, they’re completely unaffected by the surrounding space, so they can be used even in heavily distorted or even shattered space. The teleportation distance is extremely far away as well and can break through all limitations of space. They are far more powerful than Space Gates.
“But according to my inherited memories, even in ancient times, these formations were extremely rare. No one knows their origins, and there was no one who could make them because the requirements for creating one were just far too great. You would need to reach an utmost mastery with formations and then possess an extremely great comprehension of space. No one could fulfil these two requirements in ancient times, especially in regard to the comprehension of space. Even the level of Saint Emperors was nowhere near enough. The teleportation formations from ancient times seemed to have appeared out of nowhere and were slowly used up. I never thought I’d actually see one today.”
“I never thought that the Underworld sect would actually be in possession of such a valuable teleportation formation. Looks like they were not fated to die today.” Jian Chen thought. After learning about the teleportation formation, he knew that it was impossible to stop them from getting away today.
“The former sect master of the Underworld sect, Gu Zhen, is still likely to be alive. Looks like he left with Luo Qi. I just wonder if Gu Zhen has fully healed from his wounds and whether he’s made any improvements in his cultivation. A thousand years ago, Gu Zhen was an Eighth Heavenly Layer Saint King, so if he did, that would be troublesome,” Jiang Wang worried.
