Chapter 1147 Advancing Towards The Leaders
To descend there, he used the help of Fang instead of thinking of a way to do it. The hole he selected, just like many others, opened directly at the base without a direct path down. Fang used a lightning technique to move the two of them to the ground. And the moment they landed, William didn't hesitate to select a direction and started running towards it.
Fang didn't know how William selected this direction and hated such a selection that looked random in his eyes. William selected a place that was filled with lots of dark masters, the densest place ever.
Yet before they'd approach there, they had to fight lots of weaklings, and the two simply crushed their path without much hindrance.
During this, more masters arrived and started to sweep the place fast. Many dark masters had to intervene and act and had to stop the incoming masters at any cost. And that helped greatly decrease the numbers gathered at the direction William selected.
William didn't randomly select this direction. He knew the place where most of the dark masters gathered was the right direction towards an exit from here. And that meant the leaders were behind all this lot.
He took out everything, and luckily the enemies were too many to have lots of high-end masters to stop them. Anytime he'd meet up with a strong enemy, he'd simply throw him over to Fang, before taking a detour and circle around him. Fang might have suffered the most during the next three hours, but in the end, the arrival of more masters here helped alleviate tons of pressure on him and William. In the end, William finally passed through the dense enemies and found himself in front of a long and wide path, built in the middle of thick layers of rocks.
The path wasn't empty though, filled with enemies. And these ones weren't weak or the average enemies the two met before.
"It's growing harder to pass through here, are you sure it's worth it?" Fang was suffering from tons of pressure, while William tried to help him from behind. At this point, the two just crossed half a kilometre distance, and yet they didn't feel they passed through anything yet!
Enemies came from the front and back, making Fang deal with the front while William dealt with the rear enemies. The two tried to push enemies aside and run forward, but they failed to bring any difference. They ended up getting surrounded by tons of strong enemies, a thing that made William make a decision right there.
"Screw it! I'll leave you to handle everyone," William said something that left Fang speechless for a few seconds there. He even grew scared for a second. Yet when he spotted what William was doing, he couldn't help but laugh.
"The formation again, hahaha! It's time for the old me to show you how tyrannical the lightning god is, hahaha!"
William knew he had two options here, either to retreat, or work with others until they'd clear everything. Yet this option would take a long time, and he'd risk the enemy leaders to run away.
He didn't know why they didn't run so far, and yet he was sure they were still here. There was a sign for dark master leaders if they ran away, which was the chaos striking the lines of the dark masters.
So he had the second option, which was to keep pushing forward. But the enemies were just too much to handle, too strong to crush. Even with Fang on his side, it wasn't enough at all.
So he had to use the lightning formation. William didn't need to say anything to Fang, as the latter knew what to do. Fang started to use lots of deadly techniques, ones that had a large area of coverage, to push away as many enemies as he could, away from him and William.
The latter didn't take long to make the formation, as he grew used to laying these down after all this time. "I'll depend on you," William said, "make sure to send long-range attacks to cover the rest of the path."
"And you?!" Fang expected what William said, but didn't expect him to take initiative and move in the middle of the scary lightning attacks he'd release.
"I'll survive, don't worry about me," William didn't stand in his place, moving fast towards the dense enemies at the forefront.
He didn't take such a risk without much guarantee. He knew Fang would release a scary wave of lightning, but he had an advantage here.
The moment he moved forward, he changed his form into one tail, using the lightning element to the fullest. The next thing he did was to cover up himself with a thick layer of lightning, one that was enough to shield any incoming attack away.
As he dashed forward, he looked as if he was a lightning ball himself. Then Fang's attack started.
The world around turned to be filled and formed out of lightning. To William, it was as if he was swimming in a sea of lightning. Fang tried to control his power, to not aim at William, yet it was a bit hard to do. Yet his little effort helped in relieving lots of pressure on William, and the latter just kept moving forward.
The lightning around hit him, making him feel sting like pain. Yet it was something he could endure. At the same time, he made sure to gulp healing elixirs from time to time, in addition to spirit power regeneration elixirs.
It looked insane, but he managed to pass through the thick veil of lightning like a whale in the ocean. Fang could only sigh when he spotted this and realised that most of the deadly attacks caused by the formation came originally from the enemies that had a darkness element.
On top of that, William left a little of his blood and spirit power in the formation when he created it.
