Chapter 335: Chapter 139: Strike Across the Darkness, The Holy Spirit Ancient Tree Underground! _3
The next moment, unsurprisingly, another creature from the wilderness couldn’t sustain itself and fell. This time, the creature that fell was a cyclops!
"Roar~!"
Then, the giant ape also fell. With a miserable howl, it was gobbled up by the black sky.
In the blink of an eye, the five creatures that escaped from the wilderness suddenly reduced to one, a bird.
Maybe because of the bird’s inherent advantage, its speed was much faster than the other four creatures.
In a mere blink of an eye, it was almost at the temple where Chen Chang’an and his group were.
However, in contrast, the golden light on its body was dissipating rapidly, even faster than its flight.
If it continued to dissipate at this rate, this bird would undoubtedly perish in the darkness.
Just then, Chen Chang’an noticed that Chen Yi’s expression was somewhat off in the room.
"Little Yi, what’s the matter?" Chen Chang’an asked.
"Master, I...I...!"
When questioned by Chen Chang’an, Chen Yi stuttered a bit.
Then, before Chen Chang’an could react, Chen Yi suddenly kneeled down and said while crying:
"Master, I beg you, can you please save my father."
Your father?
Upon hearing this, Chen Chang’an was taken aback. Then, as if he had realized something, he promptly turned his gaze to the bird.
Sure enough, on the bird’s back, he suddenly noticed the presence of a grown man.
From the aura of the bloodline, there was a connection between the aura on the man and that of Chen Yi.
This was Chen Chang’an’s oversight. He was so focused on the sky that he didn’t pay much attention to the fact that there were people on the bird’s back.
"Foolish child, leave it to me." After understanding, Chen Chang’an smiled.
Then, he took a step forward and immediately walked out of the circle of light.
Hum~Hum~Hum~!
The moment Chen Chang’an stepped out of the light circle, the endless black sky surged towards him, but at the same time, streaks of light suddenly emerged from his body.
There was not only golden light, but also a dark yellow color, green, grass color, black . . . various colors of light.
In an instant, boundless foggy light enveloped Chen Chang’an, protecting him from the damage of the sky.
Then, he looked at the bird rushing towards him, and took a step forward, landing high above the bird.
"Swoosh~!"
The condition of the bird wasn’t so good at this moment. The golden light around it was about to dissipate, and it was on the verge of perishing due to exerting its Divine Skills excessively.
On the bird, Father Chen was also in a similar condition. Both, the man and the bird, had their eyes closed, waiting for death.
However, just as the golden light on the bird’s body was dissipating and the boundless darkness was about to swallow them, Chen Chang’an walked in front of them.
"Stop your insolence!"
Then, with a cold sneer from Chen Chang’an, his body was suddenly filled with radiant light.
Next, a monstrous golden light rose in his right hand, he swung his hand and slammed into the darkness behind the bird.
Hum~Hum~Hum~!
Hiss~Hiss~Hiss~!
Chen Chang’an’s strike momentarily stalled the pursuing darkness on Father Chen and the bird.
And, precisely this pause, brought a renewed sense of life to the bird.
"Caw~Caw~!"
"Swoosh~Swoosh~!"
The next moment, the bird let out a couple of shrieking cries, then it accelerated abruptly and dashed directly into the temple.
"Did...Did I survive?"
When the bird entered the temple, Father Chen on its back incredulously opened his eyes.
He looked at himself, then at the bird, and only after confirming that they were in the temple did he realize that he indeed survived.
Suddenly, a sense of relief after surviving a near disaster stirred up inside him.
"Huh? Little Yi? How are you here?!"
At the same time, Father Chen also noticed Mao Ruxue and others inside the temple. Especially when he saw Chen Yi, his face lit up with surprise.
"Father, it’s me. I’ve been unfilial and caused you all to worry."
Chen Yi stepped forward, embraced Father Chen.
"Little Yi, where have you been all this year? Do you know how worried we were?"
Similarly, Father Chen hugged Chen Yi as well and said with tears in his eyes.
Chen Yi responded, "Father, despite your warning, I left for the Great Wilderness alone."
"I wanted to cultivate, to learn magic, and to shatter this darkness."
Hearing Chen Yi’s words, Father Chen couldn’t manage to hold back his tears again:
"It’s good that you’re back, it’s good."
With a choked voice, he replied.
When Chen Yi left for the Great Wilderness years ago, he didn’t bid them farewell, but left without saying a word.
And he was gone for more than a year.
Everyone in the village assumed that Chen Yi had died in the Great Wilderness, but Father Chen refused to believe.
So, whenever he had spare time, he would come to the mountains in the Great Wilderness to search, hoping to find Chen Yi.
There had never been any accidents during his previous search attempts, but this time was perilous.
If it weren’t for the bird that came to help at a critical moment, he would’ve been annihilated in the darkness by now.
"By the way, Little Yi, who are these people? Are they your friends?"
After reminiscing with Chen Yi for a while, Father Chen then noticed the rest of the team, including Mao Ruxue and others. Seeing the luxurious clothes of these people, he could tell that they were from wealthy families. Curious, he asked.
