Chapter 333: 333 Missed Opportunities

Gu Yang felt himself plunging into darkness, as if he had fallen into a dark void. Forces from all directions were tearing at his body, threatening to rip him apart.

“Mysterious light shield!”

He quickly unfurled the mysterious light shield, erecting a dark shield that protected both him and Saint Chaoyang next to him.

This time, he did not hesitate to use up his mana, maximising the power of the mysterious light shield.

However, the tearing power from outside was terrifyingly strong. His mana was being used up rapidly and within a few breaths, he had aged by several decades.

Continuing like this for long, he would die from exhaustion of his life essence.

“Wake up.”

Gu Yang slapped the face of the young girl next to him.

She had just taken a strong blow, forcibly tearing open the space. When the space shattered, she got most of the backlash and passed out.

Two slaps woke her up, and she slowly came back to consciousness.

Without time to blame him, she took something out of her bosom and threw it out.

Immediately, they were pulled by a force that broke the space, causing another bout of dizziness.

Gu Yang could finally see light, and his feet were on solid ground again.

They were in a forest, in front of a monstrous tree, full of pink flowers. A fragrant smell that could intoxicate filled the air.

His eyes lit up, “Is this the main body of the Red Moon Great Saint?”

The young girl next to him was now almost fainting, pale as paper, with cold sweat on her forehead. Without the support of Gu Yang, she would have collapsed on the ground.

Before he waited for her to reply, he had already flown towards the top of the tree.

The target was the three mature peaches on the top.

Suddenly, three figures blocked his way, all of them were unfailingly powerful warriors of the Unleaking Realm.

The three men were about to confront him, but seeing the girl, they got startled and began to greet respectfully, “Greetings to the Saint Master–”

Before they could finish, their heads were flying.

Gu Yang used their courtesy as a distraction and beheaded them in a surprise move.

At such close range, with his current power, it was almost as if they were giving away their lives.

[Earned 200 Energy Points, current balance 504 points.]

[Earned 200 Energy Points, current balance 704 points.]

[Earned 300 Energy Points, current balance 1004 points.]

Two in the intermediate Nascent Soul stage and one in the late Nascent Soul stage.

Under his sword, killing them was as easy as slaying chickens.

Without any hesitation, Gu Yang flew up to the top of the tree and plucked the three just-ripe peaches at the very top.

Just then, the giant peach tree came to life and lashed out with a massive branch.

Gu Yang agilely dodged the attack.

Following that, countless pink petals took flight, filling the space, and a figure gradually emerged among them.

“Run.”

Without looking back, Gu Yang, transformed into a Phoenix, grabbed Saint Chaoyang and flew away as he unceremoniously crammed a peach into her mouth.

When the peach touched her lips, it turned into sweet juice and quickly replenished her drained Immortal Element, a hint of rosy color returning to her pale face.

Behind them, countless petals rained down, gaining speed.

Just as they were about to be caught, Saint Chaoyang had recovered some strength and with a swipe of her hand, split the space once again. In a flash, they appeared atop a glacier.

Finally made it out!

Gu Yang had a sense of foreboding that even though he had completely sealed up his physical body and isolated it from the outside world, his lifespan was still rapidly depleting.

The natural depletion of his lifespan was several times faster compared to his time in the Peach Source Heaven.
