Chapter 1677: Chapter 1299: Threat Returns, The Only Chance!
His loud voice immediately caught everyone’s attention!
Having just narrowly escaped from the jaws of the Man-eating Ants, the Hidden World Clan and Gadatu breathed a sigh of relief, but seeing this, everyone frowned!
Zhou Mu, who had been meditating and resting, suddenly opened his deep eyes and looked over at his little woman with an expression of concern!
Yu Lianyi was the same, supporting her weary body and looking toward Gu Changsheng with slight concern!
"Get lost! You dare to speak about me? If I hadn’t been reckless, you’d all be reincarnating by now! Get out of my way!" That man’s voice was loud, but Gu Changsheng’s voice was even louder. Not only was her voice loud, but her actions were swift. In the blink of an eye, she kicked away a few people blocking her path and strode forward; anyone in her way couldn’t escape being kicked!
"Gu Changsheng! You’re too overbearing!" The person from the Hidden World Clan who was kicked shouted out with indignation.
"Overbearing? Open your eyes and see clearly, there’s someone even more overbearing on the other side!" Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng immediately sneered coldly, flung her sleeve, and didn’t even bother to kick, sweeping away the people in front of her cleanly...
In her red clothes, stained with semi-dry blood, Gu Changsheng reached the riverside before anyone had regained their senses!
With her Phoenix Eyes narrowed, she nervously surveyed the situation on the opposite bank, her brows furrowing tighter and tighter...
At this moment, the Hidden World Clan finally realized something was amiss and followed Gu Changsheng to look toward the opposite bank...
One glance!
They only took one glance!
Behind Gu Changsheng came the sound of gasps one after another!
"Ah!"
"Oh!"
"Man-eating Ants! They... they..."
"..."
Gu Changsheng didn’t need to look back to know that the Hidden World Clan certainly had expressions of terror as if facing a great enemy!
In fact, they were indeed facing a great enemy!
Because at this moment, even with the dim lighting on the opposite bank, with their cultivation skills, it was still clear to see...
The army of Man-eating Ants, stalled at the opposite bank, finally couldn’t stand the silence and began to move!
One by one, they crawled into the river, one after another...
These Man-eating Ants were terrifying, but ultimately, they were just ants!
Once ants enter the water, the consequences are obvious; they would drown in an instant...
But this wasn’t what made Gu Changsheng frown, or what terrified the Hidden World Clan!
What terrified them was, knowing full well that entering the water would lead to their death by drowning, the Man-eating Ants did not diminish but continued unendingly, one after another...
Seeking death!
Using the corpses of their companions to pave a path towards their location!
The pursuit of the Man-eating Ant army was truly relentless!
Even if they injured themselves, they were not deterred!
Seeing countless Man-eating Ants, like surging waves, a dark mass pouring into the river, the scene was both spectacular and, undeniably, chilling to the core!
"What do we do? What do we do? The Man-eating Ants are crossing the river, they’re coming after us again! What do we do?"
Remembering the companions who had lost their lives to the Man-eating Ants, the Hidden World Clan panicked!
"What do we do? What do we do? Are we destined to die at the Bottom of Intestine-Breaking Cliff today?"
"Oh heavens! Save us!"
"..."
Hearing the cries and shouts behind her, Gu Changsheng’s face grew darker and darker, and finally, unable to hold back, she roared, "Du Timo, shut up! If anyone dares to whimper again, I’ll throw them to the other side immediately!"
Gu Changsheng’s words were indeed intimidating, and the Hidden World Clan instantly quieted down!
With the annoying noise behind her gone, Gu Changsheng’s gaze stayed on the opposite bank. As the dark mass of the Man-eating Ant army surged forward, her Phoenix Eyes narrowed into a dangerous line, filled with a flowing darkness...
The hand hidden under her sleeve gradually clenched, as Gu Changsheng watched the Man-eating Ant army move inch by inch across the river on their companions’ corpses. A sharp arc formed on her lips as she said in a deep voice, "Relentless pursuit, is it? Fine! I want to see how far you blessed creatures can defy the heavens! If you want to chase, then chase! I want to see if you can get across the river with me, Gu Changsheng, here!"
Just as she spoke, Gu Changsheng stepped closer to the riverbank again!
Her blood-stained red dress fluttered in the river breeze, her ink-black long hair billowing like clouds behind her. Gu Changsheng’s slender, graceful silhouette stood at the river’s edge, her bright, youthful face full of solemnity.
"Changsheng, what do you plan to do?" Zhou Mu’s elongated figure appeared beside Gu Changsheng, his deep, alluring voice echoing in her ears.
"Evildoer, this is our only chance! This big river should be the only thing at the Bottom of Intestine-Breaking Cliff that can halt the army of Man-eating Ants! If we miss this chance, we’ll surely be chased by the Man-eating Ants, with only a desperate flight ahead!" Hearing her evildoer’s voice, Gu Changsheng stared at the river surface, speaking in a deep tone.
"So, what are you planning?" Zhou Mu asked, a flash of understanding appearing in his deep eyes, yet he still waited for a response.
"What am I planning to do? Haha..." Gu Changsheng chuckled upon hearing him, looking at the army of Man-eating Ants advancing several yards across the river, she smirked and spoke in a deep voice, "Since they want to chase us tirelessly, then I’ll give them a fight and see who wins in the end! Even a gutter can turn a boat; overturning this army of Man-eating Ants in such a big river is surely no difficult task!"
Saying this, Gu Changsheng exchanged a glance with her evildoer, her Phoenix Eyes flashing with brilliance, "Evildoer, help me push the floating corpses of those giant crocodiles toward the other side of the river, aiding the Man-eating Ants in crossing!"
Hearing this, a faint smile appeared on Zhou Mu’s divine-like face, as he nodded at the little woman beside him.
Zhou Mu agreed, yet the members of the Hidden World Clan, hearing Gu Changsheng’s words, immediately protested!
"Gu Changsheng, what did you just say? Push the floating corpses of the giant crocodiles over? Aid the army of Man-eating Ants in crossing the river? Are you mad, or did I mishear you?"
At this crucial moment, instead of thinking of ways to stop the army of Man-eating Ants from crossing, you’re planning to help them cross?
This is suicidal!
If the army of Man-eating Ants successfully crosses, then aren’t we doomed?
Escape?
How long can we keep running?
In the end, aren’t we all bound to death?
"Get lost! I don’t need to explain my actions to you fools!" Gu Changsheng responded impatiently to the questioning voice from behind, then in the next instant, her figure shot up and flew towards the floating corpses of the giant crocodiles in the river...
Seeing this, Zhou Mu naturally flew up to follow!
"Gu Changsheng! Zhou Mu! You two lunatics! What are you doing?"
The members of the Hidden World Clan watched Gu Changsheng and Zhou Mu on a giant crocodile’s floating corpse, using Inner Strength to create waves, pushing the remaining floating corpses onto the army’s path, their eyes suddenly filled with rage!
Cries of exasperation erupted from their mouths, but Gu Changsheng and Zhou Mu remained oblivious, continuing unfazed!
Gu Changsheng detested passive suffering!
Being chased down Intestine-Breaking Cliff by the army of Man-eating Ants was completely unexpected for Gu Changsheng; she came to Intestine-Breaking Cliff for important matters. If the chasing continued, handling the task was out of the question; their lives were at stake!
This was not the result Gu Changsheng wanted!
So, she could only fight!
Her Phoenix Eyes were full of determination, and Gu Changsheng and Zhou Mu’s movements were incredibly swift!
The floating corpses of the giant crocodiles, killed by them, continued to move across the river with the effect of their Inner Strength, towards the opposite bank!
The army of Man-eating Ants, previously using their companions’ bodies as bridges, seeing the continuous emergence of ready-made bridges beneath their feet, suddenly accelerated their pace!
The advancing army of Man-eating Ants, from a glance, appeared as a dense, black layer, like an additional black wave on the river surface, rolling forward, stepping over their companions’ bodies and the floating crocodile corpses, inching closer to the river’s center...
Seeing this, the faces of the Hidden World Clan members on the opposite bank displayed expressions of despair. Gu Changsheng and Zhou Mu were genuinely aiding the army of Man-eating Ants in crossing the river; clearly, the army of Man-eating Ants was about to reach the river’s center...
Pushing the last floating crocodile corpse to the river’s center line, Gu Changsheng and Zhou Mu exchanged a glance, then took a swift step and immediately retreated...
Seeing the two aiding the enemy in retreat, the people of the Hidden World Clan, their eyes filled with rage, looked at them with a gaze that wished to tear them to pieces!
"Gu Changsheng! Zhou Mu! I’ll fight you both! You’re the ones harming us!"
In a frantic cry, someone charged madly towards Gu Changsheng and Zhou Mu!
Gu Changsheng, her gaze fixed on the river, monitoring the movements of the Man-eating Ant army, heard the commotion behind her and without turning her head, swung a sleeve backwards, "Get lost! Whoever doesn’t want to die, scram! Anyone who ruins my big plan, I’ll send them to the eighteenth level of Hell!"
The deep, bloodthirsty voice carried overwhelming pressure; at this moment, Gu Changsheng’s power beyond the Transformative Realm was fully displayed!
"You..." The person charging at Gu Changsheng was swung far away by her sleeve, hearing these words, their face alternated between blue and white.
The others, seeing this, hesitated immediately, unsure whether to advance or retreat...
Yet, Gu Changsheng paid them no mind, constantly counting in her heart, estimating the distance of the army of Man-eating Ants from her attack range on the river...
