Survive!
The desire for survival ignited Lin Xun’s potential. The power of Earth-gang realm in his body roared, and his spirit and blood were boiling like burning.
Whoosh!
His speed was significantly improved again.
Rumbling ~ ~ Five purple Ziying Battleships were chasing after Lin Xun like attaching maggots. All the spiritual cannons were on fire and poured down plenty horrible and dazzling light column.
The earth was smashed and the rocks were powdered. All the places Lin Xun passed were destroyed with big holes.
Ziying warship was powerful enough to kill strongmen in the Sea Spirit Realm. How could it be a common weapon?
Perhaps the only defect of Ziying Battleship was that its fighting means was too monotone because it could only launch attacks under the control of practitioners.
This also provided space for Lin Xun to avoid the attacks.
But Lin Xun knew that when he was exhausted and unable to hold on under this situation anymore, he would die at once!
Unfortunately, he didn’t find any chance to escape as he ran along the way. He could only go forward constantly.
“Aha, isn’t he very powerful? Why he run like a mad dog now?! ”
At the back of the Ziying Battleship, a group of practitioners came near with the lead of Young Mu and the bamboo hatted man.
When they saw Lin Xun’s panic look, they could not help laughing.
In their view, Lin Xun seemed so small and weak when he was chased by five Ziying Battleships in the air. He was now a struggling ant in the fire and would die at any time.
“Nice!”
“He had killed so many of our companies. Now he deserves to be killed shameless!”
Many practitioners were excited.
They were badly defeated by Lin Xun and their morale were almost broken down before. Now the situation suddenly shifted to Lin Xun’s struggling. How could they not be excited when Lin Xun ran away helplessly?
“Is it funny? In the battle just now, 419 people were killed on the spot. If we had not sent out the Ziying Battleship, we will lose more companies. Do you think it’s funny now? ”
Young Mu uttered coldly. His scarlet eyes scanned people, making people’s smiling face stiff and some touch of pride on their face disappeared.
Indeed, what was the difference between laughing at the enemy at this time and laughing at their incompetence?
“To be honest, who is able to resist the blows from five Ziying Battleships in the Earth-gang Realm like that young man?”
Young Mu seemed to be very moody. He shouted as if venting his anger, “In this empire, which practitioner of Earth-gang realm can achieve this step? Huh?”
His loud voice was like thunder, making all the following practitioners depressed. The complacency and excitement in their hearts were all gone immediately.
“What if this young man survives today and retaliates against us later? Who...who could laugh out in that case? ”
Young Mu scolded seriously.
At this moment, their face changed greatly while they were thinking of Lin Xun’s peerless power. Suddenly, their heart trembled for no reason.
If Lin Xun survived this time, every one of them would not have good sleep in the future!
“By the way, there is almost no chance for the target to survive under the bombardment of five Ziying Battleships. You don’t have to worry much about it, but you must not be careless as before. No one can be careless before we see the target was killed completely!”
The bamboo hatted man put in a word and inspired others, making people become alert and careful again.
Time went by little by little.
The bombing continued.
At this moment, time seemed so long and durable for Lin Xun. He had never been in such a mess since he started practicing.
However, his deep black eyes were still firm and his will unshakable.
To live or to die was only judged in a moment. Lin Xun was willing to fight for life to the end!
Whoosh~~
Lin Xun suddenly heard a roaring sound of water in his Sea of Consciousness, which brightened his eyes.
Before long, a big river of over half hundreds meters width appeared in his sight. It had fast current and fierce waves.
Lin Xun suddenly clenched his teeth, accelerated his speed by 30% at this very moment and rushed to the river directly!
Unh?
In the sky, a strong man was driving the Ziying Battleship and laughing wildly as he launched the spiritual cannons. When he saw the river in the distance, his lips were curled into a ferocious and cruel arc after a short startle.
Since there was a big river in front of the target, it left no place for the target to go!
Kill!
The strong man controlled the Ziying Battleship and exerted full firepower of the spiritual cannons. The blows poured down as dense tide.
The other four controllers of the Ziying Battleships subconsciously thought that it was time to kill the target when they witnessed this scene.
Boom!
Without any hesitation, they all launched the strongest attacks.
In an instant, the shining column broke the void like meteor shower and dashed hard against the ground.
Oops!
Different from those controllers of the Ziying Battleship, when the bamboo hatted man saw the river in the distance, his face suddenly changed, with bad feelings arose in his mind.
He clearly remembered that in an encirclement campaign the other day, they laid a lot of ambush on a lake. Who ever thought the target could sneak from the bottom of the water and escaped the encirclement unconsciously!
According to the experience, the river in front was not an opportunity to obstruct the target at all! On the contrary, it provided a slim hope for the target to escape!
Unfortunately, it was late for the bamboo hatted man to remember that.
Lin Xun suddenly swept up and plunged into the rolling river like lightening.
Boom~~
Almost at the same time, the dense firepower poured down from the void and rumbled over the river.
At that moment, waves burst into the sky, presenting a magnificent scene.
In the water, as soon as Lin Xun rushed in, he felt a terrible force behind him, rolling the waves and hitting him hard.
Bang!
Lin Xun felt that his head was buzzing, his whole body was aching and his bones were breaking. He was crushed to the bottom of the river uncontrollably!
Poof~
His face pale, Lin Xun could not help coughing up blood. He fell down on the ground at the bottom of the river, making a painful groan.
The blow just now was too terrible. He was like being oppressed by a huge mountain. If he was not in the river with huge buoyant force, the blow was about to take his life away!
Exhaling~
Lin Xun was panting. Although the current was fast on the bottom of the river, Lin Xun could walk and breathe freely. He didn’t even receive any impact of waves.
This was attributed to a wisp of blue luster, which was the breath of the Amrita Saint Pearl.
This was the Sacred Treasure of Aqua-barbarian. Although it had been in silence for a long time, its natural breath could make Lin Xun feel himself like a fish and move freely under the water without any influence.
This was no different from the legendary Water Avoidance Pearl.
After taking a moment of rest, Lin Xun clenched his teeth and dragged his wounded body to walk at the bottom of the water. Along the way, the fish swam around, the water grass swayed and the colorful coral reefs were glittering, presenting a beautiful scenery.
Lin Xun didn’t have the mood to appreciate the beautiful scene around him. Before long, he found an underground cave and hid himself in it.
Clang!
He took out Waking Globe and inserted it on the earth outside the cave; then he vomited a long turbid breath, took out a bottle of healing pills and swallowed them up without hesitation.
After that, he closed his eyes and began to meditate.
Although the power of Ziying Battleship was great, it would not affect Lin Xun at all in the thousand meters deep water.
It was difficult for the enemy to dive to kill him because the practitioners under the Sea Spirit Realm could not persist underwater for a long time.
In addition, the current was fast and the resistance was great. The deeper the water was, the stronger the pressure would be. If the enemy who was below the Sea Spirit Realm dared to dive in the water, Lin Xun could make a counterattack effortlessly with the help of the Amrita Saint Pearl!
Under such circumstances, Lin Xun could temporarily forget his safety and focus on repairing his injuries.
“Finally, I still have a hope...”
This was Lin Xun’s last thought before meditating.
...
On the river, five Ziying Battleships were floating in the air quietly. They no longer launched attacks at this moment. Obviously, they realized that although the power of spiritual cannon was strong, it was still impossible to cut off the flow and destroy the river.
On the banks of the river, hundreds of practitioners had gathered there.
The man in the bamboo hat stood in the front. His eyes fixed on the turbulent river and his face was very gloomy.
The target was gone!
They didn’t know whether the target died or not. Was he washed away by the river?
“How terrible those attacks were just now. He couldn’t resist them at all. He might be have been blasted into pieces at the moment.”
Someone spoke lightly.
This was the idea of most people. After all, the scene of all the five Ziying Battleships on full fire just now was terrible. Even a Sea Spirit Realm practitioner would die under that blow, let alone the target who is only at the Earth-gang realm.
“Send someone down to have a look.”
The bamboo hatted man took a deep breath and made a decision, which surprised most people.
“Boss, it seems unnecessary, doesn’t it?”
There was some hesitation.
“You know a bullshit! The target could slip away from the bottom of the lake in the heavy ambush. Do you think if the target is alive, he will float up from the river as we expect? ”
The bamboo hatted man failed to resist the anxiety and anger in his heart and shouted loudly.
This made many people’s faces slightly changed. Immediately, more than ten practitioners volunteered to jump into the river.
“If the target is alive, these people can’t rival him at all.”
Young Mu said aside.
“The target has been seriously injured in our chase just now. I decide that the moment he jumped into the river, he must suffered a lot too. If he is still alive, this is the best time for us to kill him!”
As the bamboo hatted man explained, he suddenly looked around and ordered, “Go, control both of the river banks and let the five Ziying Battleships and all the Wind-shadow Hawks fully monitor the area where the river flows. If you find the target, kill him without mercy!”
Obviously, he was worried that the target would slip away from the bottom of the river like last time, so he arranged the tight defense.
