Chapter 767 - A Torn Spatial Tunnel (1/2)

“What should we do now?” Bai Li asked.

Should they chase after the furious Mohrian, or run with the loot?

Qin Feng looked at the exhausted Bai Li with great concern, and he himself was no better. Mohrian is not a beast they could easily kill now.

They could defeat it, but it might require a great price to defeat the beast deity.

More so, Qin Feng would not have found out about the existence of the Sacred Flame Meteor if not because of the sudden intrusion. Mohrian had obviously been absorbing the runes from the stone all this time.

Mohrian could have faked a defeat and returned to its cave to lure in Qin Feng, then detonate the stone, like what Qin Feng had done to Z previously. No matter how powerful they were, Qin Feng and Bai Li would not be able to escape unscathed.

Their opponent was a beast deity that had lived a long life. It must still have a trick or two up its sleeves.

It was best not to pursue the beast if there was not a safe way to put it down quickly.

Under such consideration, Qin Feng said, “We should first return to the base of Dusk Dragon. It’s time to return to the Black Citadel with them. We will have our chance against Mohrian in the future.”

“Humph! That filthy dragon. I swear I will come back and skin him alive one day!” Bai Li echoed. She admitted what Qin Feng said about Mohrian when they first met was right.

Besides, neither side was able to gain an upper hand after battling for three straight days. It would be meaningless to keep the battle going.

“Let’s go!” Qin Feng said.

Bai Li nodded and instantly teleported themselves into the Dusk Dragon stronghold.

Everyone knew that it was about time to return to the Black Citadel. They sized up the people around them, wondering whether a fight would break out on the bridge of Black Citadel at such a volatile moment.

The sudden appearance of Qin Feng and Bai Li caught everyone’s attention. Complicated expressions were seen on everyone’s faces when they recognized who had returned.

It was the couple that had lured Mohrian away earlier. It was miraculous that they were still alive, just looking a little battered.

The ability to escape Mohrian and return alive showed just how capable they were.

Qin Feng and Bai Li had returned by leaping through dimensions. Thus, they had arrived earlier than Mohrian and those courageous yet rash aptitude users.

Fire Phoenix was feeling uneasy. Her instinct told her something bad was about to happen. Regardless, she still opened up the fixated waymark as planned.

“Everyone, I hope that you have returned from a fruitful trip. The tunnel is opening soon.”

Among the participants, some were being secretive and surveyed vigilantly. Some, who liked to boast, were acting jubilantly. They could not wait to return and tell everyone the fortune they had plundered from the island.

However, more were pulling a long face, with bloodshot and greed-imbued eyes. They had gained almost nothing from this trip, but would not be satisfied with leaving this place empty-handed. They were probably going to create havoc once they went past the tunnel.

No matter what their current state of mind was, most people had their eyes fixed on Fire Phoenix.

People from Dusk Dragon had set up the spatial tunnel that took the form of a ten-meter wide gate. Such a phenomenal presence could be seen from afar, which served as a notice for aptitude users around the island that time was almost up.

This was when a giant roar pierced their eardrums.

The crowd followed the direction of the roar reflexively and found more than ten aptitude users that were approaching fast in the sky. Behind them chased a daunting behemoth.

The fire draconic beast, Mohrian.

“Why has Mohrian returned?”

“Someone must have provoked it!”

“It’s those who left earlier.”

“Why are we still standing here? It’s time to run!”

The aptitude users knew a disaster was imminent.

Previously, Qin Feng had helped them once by distracting Mohrain away. The same trick would not work the second time.
