His face was ruddy, and although not as red as the other old men, his breathing was a little rapid. He said he was relaxed, but in fact he was extremely nervous inside.
After all, if the teleportation array is closed, even with his level of cultivation, he will not be able to open it. Even if an eternal giant at the Nascent Soul stage is here, it still won't work.
"City Lord..."
Not long after, Zi Ji spoke again. His face was pale, with beads of sweat rolling down his cheeks. His voice was hoarse, and his tone was full of anxiety.
He was only a half-step Jindan master. Compared with the Jindan master, the difference was naturally as great as heaven and earth. As he spoke, the other old men also looked at the Lord of Guiyuan City eagerly.
His words undoubtedly expressed their thoughts.
For a moment, the only sound in the entire hall was their heavy breathing.
The Lord of Guiyuan City did not answer. His expression remained unchanged, as if he did not hear Zi Ji's words. His eyes were slightly closed, and he seemed to be looking at the sky.
There was the direction of the teleportation array. At this time, the crack had begun to close slowly. Even if they injected all their magic power, they could not stop it. This was the limit of human power.
“City Lord, my magic power can last for half an incense stick. If you still don’t come out, I can only retract my power, otherwise…” He didn’t finish his words, but everyone present was smart and left their next eyelash empty.
At this time, Feng Qingyang, who was in the sealed world, was a little confused and just climbed upwards mechanically.
There is no time, no light, only endless darkness. He is isolated from the world and it seems that he is the only one left in the world. In the silence, he can even hear the sound of his own blood flowing.
Little did he know that there was a white shadow somewhere below his body. The shadow's long tail was swaying up and down, left and right, and it was the same white shadow that Feng Qingyang had let go of before.
Its eyes were watery, full of agility and humanity, but there was also a hint of struggle and hesitation in them... It seemed that if it followed him out, something would change.
"I want to go out..." Feng Qingyang's consciousness was blurred, and his hands touched the cliff in front of him, like a nimble climbing ape. With just a light jump, he disappeared into the darkness again.
One step, two steps, three steps... He didn't know how long he had been rising. He originally thought that it would last forever. However, just when he was about to lose confidence.
Suddenly, there was a crisp sound penetrating the waterfall, as if it had pierced a thin film, and then the endless darkness disappeared, and a gray light suddenly appeared in his eyes. He subconsciously raised his hand to block it, but at this moment, an extremely huge suction force came, and he disappeared into the abyss with a whoosh.
When he regained consciousness and looked around again, he found that he was exactly in the place where he landed.
Looking upwards, the void was shaking, and a faint crack in the void began to appear. Then it began to expand rapidly. In just half a breath, it turned into an arch, which contained a pressure that shook the soul.
Feng Qingyang's heart moved. Although he didn't know how long he had been here, the teleportation array began to appear as soon as he appeared. It seemed that now was the most critical moment.
He suddenly turned around and looked at the end of the sky behind him. There, the faint light was gradually dimming, just like the afterglow of the setting sun, which would disappear at any time.
At the end, a flash of white lightning was whistling towards them. Feng Qingyang was stunned. When he was about to take a closer look, he felt something soft in his arms.
That feeling made him feel unusually familiar, as if he had touched it somewhere before. A few flashes of lightning flashed through his mind, resounding with the beauty of the Huoyun Mountains. His heart was moved, and he lowered his head and took a breath of cool air.
His old face turned red and he felt a little embarrassed for his previous thoughts. It turned out that the softness was not what he imagined, but the softness that he had driven away.
Touching the softness in his hands, Feng Qingyang subconsciously inserted his hands into its delicate hair, feeling the power of space coming from above. He shook his body and immediately flew towards the teleportation array in the sky.
As he entered, the space gate composed of the teleportation array collapsed with a loud bang, turned into sporadic points of light, and disappeared into the sky and earth in a whistling sound.
In the main hall of Guiyuan City, Zi Ji had a gloomy face. At this time, almost half an incense stick of time had passed as he mentioned. However, even so, the city lord remained silent and seemed to not care at all.
Just when he was about to take back his magic power, suddenly a huge pressure came over him, as if the world was about to collapse. Beads of sweat the size of beans covered his cheeks, and for a moment, he dared not move at all.
It seemed that if he moved slightly, he would be shattered into pieces in the next breath. He moved his eyes and met the city lord's eyes. He had an expressionless face and stared straight at Zi Ji.
With just a glance from the corner of his eye, he suppressed the Purple Demon Eye of the Half-Step Golden Core Realm master.
The strength of this young city lord has never been made public to the world. People only know that he is a powerful Jindan who keeps a low profile, but can suppress an area of the void with just a glance.
This kind of strength is definitely not something that a great Jindan master can possess. He secretly wiped a cold sweat, his heart beating wildly...
"City Lord..."
Just as he opened his mouth, the void in the hall shook rapidly, and a unique breath spread out, which was the turbulent force in the endless void.
The city lord, whose face had been changing color, felt his heart skip a beat, as if he had guessed something. He looked delighted, raised his hands, and pressed towards the void. Suddenly, a turquoise light shot out.
Boom…
The earth shook, and it seemed as if the sky was about to break apart...
"City Lord, we can't hold on any longer..."
At this time, another old man spoke nervously, and then his body shook, as if he had no bones in his body. Like a pool of stagnant water, he fell to the ground with a bang, his face pale, and it was obvious that his magic power was greatly consumed.
As he fell, the sound of people falling to the ground could be heard again in the silent hall...
"stand up… "
As they fell to the ground, the teleportation array above the hall began to shake, as if it was about to collapse at any time.
"Open it for me..."
The teleportation array was shaking, and the Lord of Guiyuan City pressed his hand towards the void again, spitting out a mouthful of blood. Suddenly, the originally shaking teleportation array stabilized in an instant.
"Boom..."
The roaring sound was endless. The people who fell to the ground looked at the city lord who forcibly opened the teleportation array by himself. Their hearts were pounding and their pupils shrank sharply. The residual power he exuded at this moment was definitely not something that a Jindan master could possess.
"My dear father-in-law... you have been waiting for a long time..."
(I'm really sorry, I thought I could update more chapters after I got home, but I've become even busier. I will make up for the chapters I owe, absolutely...)
