Chapter 556: Chapter 499: Light Fixing Skill, Star-Plucking Hand
"Don’t worry, I won’t leave you here."
Even though Han Yu kept assuring him, Liu Zongyuan truly didn’t believe him.
Especially since every time Han Yu made a promise, he didn’t forget to ask about escaping from the opponent.
Liu Zongyuan let his head droop weakly and spoke helplessly, "Don’t even think about it. Even if I told you, it wouldn’t help. Only we can use it."
Han Yu seemed lost in thought and suddenly spoke with a strange tone, "You’re so familiar with this, have you guys gotten used to being chased?"
"Cough, cough!"
Liu Zongyuan tried to use a dry cough to mask his embarrassment, but Han Yu directly lifted him high, and the two of them looked into each other’s eyes.
He couldn’t help but look awkward, then slowly confessed, "No...not often chased, only when those three old ghosts come out do we run."
It’s an undeniable fact that the Celestial Dao Sect was generally weaker than the Yama Hall, so they’ve always employed a hit-and-run strategy.
If it wasn’t that their splitting soul was terrible, Liu Zongyuan might not dare face them alone.
"We do have a good chance when facing a few others."
Feeling a loss of face, Liu Zongyuan hurriedly added.
This only made Han Yu burst into laughter, "So what do you guys do when you encounter evenly matched numbers in the Celestial Dao Sect?"
Liu Zongyuan went silent for a moment, what else could they do, run!
Han Yu curled his lips. He wasn’t stupid. Seeing the expression of the Daoist, he could guess the answer.
"It seems like you guys don’t have an easy time either!"
Han Yu looked at him with pity, shaking his head slightly.
Liu Zongyuan’s face turned red instantly. After all, being pitied by a native of the Central Continent was quite embarrassing, especially since this native was significantly stronger than him.
After a little while, they flew, and fog began to gather over the sea area. Han Yu had been here before and knew that passing through this foggy area marked the beginning of the Endless Sea Domain.
"Ahead is the Endless Sea Domain. Now, can you finally tell me how we’re escaping?"
Han Yu couldn’t help but ask again.
"What do you mean how to run? Just fly straight ahead."
But Liu Zongyuan’s words nearly made Han Yu curse. If it weren’t for knowing that the Celestial Dao Sect and the Yama Hall were enemies, he would have thought the other was trying to lead him to his death.
If that’s the case, can they even go in?
Flying straight ahead, how is that any different from running into the opponent’s trap?
"The Endless Sea Domain is vast and boundless, and direction changes upon entering. Unless you’re extremely unlucky, you can’t possibly run into them."
Liu Zongyuan explained, but Han Yu still couldn’t accept this reasoning.
"Running around like a headless fly here, if you want to court death, I can just drop you."
After speaking, he felt even more disheartened, thinking he might as well hide in the Central Continent.
"Believe me, you can’t hide in the Central Continent. Once they find you there, you might as well forget about escaping."
Liu Zongyuan saw Han Yu’s hesitation and explained.
"Running to the Endless Sea Domain is almost like seeking death too."
Han Yu couldn’t understand why someone would flee right towards their pursuers!
Liu Zongyuan, looking troubled, hesitated before speaking, "Within the Endless Sea Domain, there is a special small world only we know how to enter. Hiding in there is the only way to completely escape their search."
"Otherwise, hiding anywhere is useless. You don’t know how terrifying Xin Zui and the others are."
"What’s this?"
Han Yu asked as if hearing about something weird, wondering what a small world was.
The Artifact Spirit also scratched its head; even it didn’t know what that was.
In response, Liu Zongyuan clammed up again. Han Yu’s curiosity was stoked, but no matter how much he shook him, Liu Zongyuan refused to explain further.
After some time, tired of the harassment, he replied vaguely.
"In short, don’t ask anymore. Taking a gamble to enter is your only way of survival. Staying in the Central Continent is waiting for death."
Take a gamble?
Han Yu was naturally apprehensive about such terms. With no other reason, he disliked anything involving luck.
Not only disliked, every time luck was mentioned, it would fail him.
"Is your luck any good?"
Han Yu suddenly felt something and asked the person he was holding.
Liu Zongyuan struggled to turn his head, smiled bitterly, and asked back, "Do I look like someone with good luck?"
...
In the small land in the Endless Sea Domain, the first person with an odd expression was the doctor, followed by Gu Feng and the splitting soul.
In the end, the three looked at each other.
Is it really this uncanny?
Just like that, they ran into them!
No need for them to point it out. An unfamiliar cultivator holding the youngest of the Celestial Dao Sect appearing here was already strikingly obvious.
Moreover, this cultivator had too many distinctive features, young guy, Fire Divine Power, without cultivation.
Xin Zui was the first to strike!
When his opponent questioned him, Han Yu already had a bad premonition. Before he could say anything, a massive light beam descended from the sky, enveloping both of them entirely.
Liu Zongyuan finally realized too, understanding they had really run into something supernatural!
Especially since the light covering them instantly revealed the identity of the attacker.
"It’s Xin Zui, quickly escape the light beam’s range!"
Liu Zongyuan urgently shouted.
Han Yu barely had time to look up at the attacker, and he dashed out of the light beam in a panic.
He hadn’t expected that the speed he prided himself on still wasn’t faster than the opponent’s light beam.
"What on earth is this thing?"
Han Yu quickly asked.
"Light Fixing Skill, a method Xin Zui uses to capture people, it will keep tracking you, locking onto your movements, and moreover..."
Liu Zongyuan hadn’t finished when a piercing pain hit them both, getting stronger and stronger.
Han Yu was still fine, but Liu Zongyuan couldn’t withstand it. Blood oozing from visible holes around him started streaming like a flood.
No need for him to explain, this devilish thing not only tracks but attacks too.
The vision in front started to blur as the light beams around him began to obscure Han Yu’s vision, completely engulfing his sight in just a few moments.
"Can’t you be faster? If we don’t break through this Light Fixing Skill, we’re dead meat."
Liu Zongyuan shouted hoarsely, being a severely injured person, this kind of attack was something he couldn’t sustain for long.
"I can, but you’d better hang in there."
Han Yu frowned, and before Liu Zongyuan could understand, a massive sound wave suddenly erupted.
Pfft!
Liu Zongyuan was abruptly hit, spewing a mouthful of fresh blood, his face turning instantly pale.
Han Yu’s methods were more lethal than Xin Zui’s, who used divine power explosions for speeding up?
But it worked well; under the brief burst, two figures shot out from the broad light beam.
"Hmm! This is quite interesting!"
Stroking his white beard, Xin Zui’s eyes suddenly lit up. Han Yu’s approach, though simple and crude, was beautifully executed.
"Let me play too."
Xin Yin, sitting nearby, leisurely flicked his hand, a massive ethereal hand from the sky descending.
Whoa!
Han Yu didn’t even need to turn back, as his back was already feeling cold.
What the heck is this thing?
"Cough... That’s Xin Yin’s Star Picking Hand. If you slow down a bit, you might get to experience its power..."
Liu Zongyuan spoke while coughing blood, his voice threadbare as it seemed like he could drop anytime.
"If you’re really on the brink, just close your eyes. I’ll throw you."
Han Yu replied irritably.
Liu Zongyuan, initially drowsy, suddenly perked up, forcing himself to stay awake, eyes wide open, afraid to faint.
An unspeakable pressure continuously pressed down from above. Even with Han Yu’s speed, this pressure loomed constantly overhead...
