Chapter 321 - The kind hearted Savior (1/2)
The idols came alive and began attacking the people inside the place. There were more than ten statues and all of which were as strong as a tenth meridian. Wang Ling was but a third meridian Immortal, he can't handle such opponents without risking anything.
Thankfully, the idol did not attempt to attack him and just let him be. Wang Ling heaved a sigh of relief and quickly started locating the box, ”Over there.”
The black box that was adjacent to the feet of the idol was kicked away and Wang Ling scrambled to the black box and retrieved it. He moved as fast as he could but those who saw the black box was no more than twenty people and all of them, including Wang Ling aiming for it.
But this time, Wang Ling was the fastest of them all and he got his hands on the black box. The box was small enough to fit snugly onto his hands and right at the moment he got his hands on the box, Wang Ling felt danger coming from behind.
Two gigantic fists flew into Wang Ling and in a hurry, he sidestepped to the side and dodged. But the other fist was still flying towards him, he was vulnerable and soon enough the gigantic fist landed onto him. But he managed to block it with both arms crossed, however, he was still sent flying away.
He crashed into one of the columns but in his hands was the black box. Wang Ling did not let it go and the idol that chased after him like a madman. Wang Ling saw this and he tried running away, but the idol was too fast for him and it soon caught up to him.
The fist was once again thrown, but this time Wang Ling had already grown accustomed to the speed of its fist enabling him to see through it and 'ride' its force. Wang Ling jumped up and landed on the arm of the idol, he clenched his fist and circulated Chaos Qi onto his right fist.
”Chaotic Thunder Fist!” A devastating force emerged from the hands of Wang Ling as he executed the modified Thunder Fist! The explosive might of chaos and thunder emerged as a loud, Boom! An explosion rivaling that of a bomb echoed in the area. It was a powerful fist technique, yet, the idol who took it head on did not even budge the little bit.
”What the hell?” Wang Ling cursed before having his body grabbed by the idol, ”Argh!”
He was crushed almost to death that is until the black box fell from his hands. The grip of the idol loosened as another opportunist went to the grab the box he had let go. Wang Ling noticed this and took advantage of the situation.
Circulating his Chaos Qi all over his body, Wang Ling's strength increased multiple folds and he pried open the fist of the idol that held him hostage. Wang Ling landed on his feet he was hurt, but not too hurt that he was unable to move around.
Wang Ling was ready to get away from the idol, he feared that he will once again be attacked. If he were to have an inevitable fight with the idol, Wang Ling must first gain some distance from the idol and have his mind find space in order for him to move lighter.
However, before Wang Ling can even move away, the idol had already moved to hunt down another person ignoring him entirely even though he was the closest of the bunch, ”What's going on?'
With breathing space given to him without a problem, Wang Ling was given a full view of what is happening. He counted the number of idols (statues) and then made sense of their patterns priorities.
Wang Ling took in a deep breath and exhaled, ”I got it.” With a wide devilish grin, Wang Ling found out the idols attack only the people who got a weapon on their hands. Anyone who has a weapon will be dealt with and from what he can tell, these weapons should be a target of the idols and in a different sense, these idols are competitors for the treasures Wang Ling wants to get.
It seems like getting a treasure out of this place would be troublesome. That's the idea, but Wang Ling did not care. Not everything will be handed out to you, it must be earned and he is not planning on getting out of this place without that box.
”Figure, tell me, what do you see of these idols? Do you see any openings I can take advantage of?”
”Hold your horses, I am trying to find something less dangerous. The ones I found have a chance of you dying if done incorrectly so it is best for us to find a different way.”
Wang Ling shook his head, ”That will not do, the number of people here is decreasing. Some are leaving and others are about to have their Immortal Wills activated, the number of our baits will decrease, wait, I have a plan!”
When Wang Ling was asking the Figure, he was without a single plan. But as he finally gets to talk about the current situation, an idea appeared in his mind and as if he a coward, Wang Ling turned back and got out of the room without missing a beat.
Doing so naturally incurred questions from the Gray Figure, ”What the hell are you doing?! That black box is an important thing to us, it will increase our cultivation by leaps and bounds if we use it cleverly, it may even shorten our advance to the seventh meridian from 60 years to 50 years so what the hell are you doing?!”
”Shut it, just watch, I have a plan.” When Wang Ling got out of that room, he began circling around the hallway and managed to pass the connected paths. The seven passageways that all led to the area where the treasure lays were all connected with one another in one circular, but complicated route.
Though it took Wang Ling a minute to do so, he managed to circle around the area and as he did so, he would occasionally pear into what is currently happening and observe the current events with his sharp eyes.
Wang Ling saw a number of people on the ground, none were at the level of near death. A good number of people were still going around fighting for the treasure with other people and the idols.
Locating the man with the black box, Wang Ling focused and soon enough Wang Ling saw the man who had the box. The person who had the box was a handsome man, he did not know who it was but his strength was at the seventh meridian and from what he could tell, that particular man could jump levels up to the tenth meridian. He was facing three idols at once.
