Chapter 649: Trapped in a Deep Gouge
Translator: Radiant Translations Editor: Radiant Translations
Next to the sleeping Ancient Demon in mid-air, Xue Ying was carefully flying inside the Mirage. He even had the urge to just tear through the void!
That’s right.
In an ordinary world, anywhere suppressed by the Six Heavenly Wheel could not be torn apart! But Xue Ying had complete control inside the Mirage, and he could just tear through the void. However, for the sake of avoiding the protectors of the Ancestor Mother Religion from discovering this, Xue Ying decided to not do so, or his enemies would stop chasing as soon as they realized Xue Ying could travel a few trillion kilometers within moments!
As such, despite clearly feeling the pressure, Xue Ying could only continue to fly slowly.
“Hu.”
Even after flying for a very long time, he had traveled no more than a few tens of billions of kilometers, and he was still very close to the Ancient Demon. But he had no choice; who was the one who made this Ancient Demon so huge.
“Hong.”
Suddenly, a bubble appeared in mid-air.
It was translucent, and as soon as it appeared, it coincidentally wrapped around Xue Ying, who was currently flying. Despite his flying through the Mirage, Xue Ying was wrapped by this bubble with a diameter of 5,000 kilometers just the same.
‘Not good!’ Xue Ying’s expression changed.
“Pa.”
The bubble popped.
And Xue Ying, who was originally trapped in the bubble, also disappeared alongside the popped bubble. Xue Ying’s body, as well as the black armor shielding his body, had completely shattered apart. In his terror, he had already disappeared from this location in mid-air.
…
Half an hour or so later.
A rainbow flame arrived in the same region. Once here, the flame stopped to reveal Protector Huo Zhe inside it.
Protector Huo Zhe’s figure was strong, and his eyes burned in a vague flame. He was staring at the huge Ancient Demon in the distance and, with a wave of his hand, his three comrades also appeared by his side.
“Ancient Demon?” His three comrades were just as startled.
They had lived for a long time in the Lower Three Edens of the Six Heavenly Wheel, and were naturally aware of the most terrifying existences here—the Ancient Demons. Every single one had the combat power of a ruler.
“Who would have thought that there would be an Ancient Demon here. Things have become a little inconvenient.” The gray-robed female protector transmitted a message from the side, “Dong Bo Xue Ying is hiding here somewhere. Are we supposed to deal with him in such a place? As soon as we begin fighting, it might very well end up waking up the Ancient Demon. That’d be very troublesome.”
“Mn.”
Everyone present agreed on this point.
The moment an Ancient Demon awoke, it would attack any and all lifeforms in its proximity!
“Let’s follow Dong Bo Xue Ying. It won’t be too late to kill him after we leave this region.” Protector Huo Zhu frowned as he pointed to the void afar. “The Religious Leader sent over a message stating that Dong Bo Xue Ying is right here, but ever after thoroughly searching for him, I just can’t seem to find him. There seems to be no existence other than the Ancient Demon here.”
“Mn.” The three comrades were also thoroughly inspecting the place.
They were all protector rank existences and should be able to easily scour an area of half a hundred billion kilometers. Since their specialties differed, their methods for inspecting the surroundings also varied.
However, all of them arrived at the same conclusion—Xue Ying was not here!
“He isn’t here.”
“Not here either.”
“I too have checked the surrounding half a hundred billion kilometers, and I can’t find either,” the three comrades said one after another.
“Big Brother Huo Zhu, are you certain he is here?” the blue-eyed man asked.
“I’ll ask again.” Protector Huo Zhu might have a deep trust in the Religious Leader, but he still found it prudent to ask.
