Chapter 1785: Unexpected Rescue
Chapter 1785: Unexpected Rescue
Forcing their way out of this Blood River Godslayer Array was most likely not a viable option, so their only choice was to teleport back to the tree of life.
However, the Holy Spirit Cult never failed to stoke the flames of vengeful hatred in Tang Wulin’s heart, and he couldn’t bear to just leave like this.
There was still an enormous amount of abyssal energy on this battlefield, enough to support him through a grueling battle, and prior to teleporting away, he wanted to kill as many of his opponents as possible.
With his and A’Ruheng’s physical constitutions, even a quasigod would find it quite difficult to kill them.
Tang Wulin raised his Golden Dragon Spear up above his head, and a powerful unyielding aura erupted forth. The image of the figure that had opposed Tang San on that mountaintop surfaced deep in his heart once again, and his eyes were filled with a sense of unmatched pride, as if he were looking down even on heaven and earth.
Restrict Heaven and Earth, Dragon Emperor Fight!
As soon as Dragon Emperor Fight was unleashed, even Dark Bell and Dark Phoenix, who were both close to the Limit Douluo level, were struck by a sense of astonishment.
They had witnessed Tang Wulin in this state through some footage, but at the time, everything had seemed quite inexplicable to them; it was as if Qiangu Dongfeng had suddenly become weaker for some reason in Tang Wulin’s presence.
However, now that they were facing Dragon Emperor Fight themselves, they finally came to realize just how fearsome the pressure exerted by this technique was.
“This is a divine technique!” Ghost Emperor exclaimed.
All of them knew that there was no way that Tang Wulin was a god, but the aura being released by Dragon Emperor Fight definitely wasn’t something that a human was capable of exhibiting. Even though Tang Wulin was only emulating this aura, it was still infinitely approaching the godly level.
His next attack was definitely going to be extremely devastating.
In the face of his Dragon Emperor Fight, even the quasigod level Infernal Emperor and Ghost Emperor didn’t have the courage to directly attack him as they knew that doing so would subject them to the full brunt of this godly aura.
Right at this moment, a very faint voice suddenly rang out beside Tang Wulin’s ears.
“You have to get out of here!” The voice was barely audible, but was rather familiar. Immediately thereafter, the ground beneath Tang Wulin and A’Ruheng’s feet suddenly softened, and a burst of suction force erupted from down below.
At Tang Wulin’s cultivation rank, his sixth sense was extremely sharp, and it was telling him that the owner of this voice was trustworthy. Thus, Tang Wulin made the snap decision to go along with what was happening.
Thus, just as all of the powerful beings from the Holy Spirit Cult were anticipating a devastating attack from Tang Wulin, he and A’Ruheng suddenly sank into the earth and vanished on the spot.
Even Infernal Emperor and Ghost Emperor were still affected by the aura released by Dragon Emperor Fight, thereby preventing them from reacting until it was already too late. In the next instant, both Tang Wulin and A’Ruheng’s auras had completely disappeared.
Ghost Emperor and Infernal Emperor were stunned to see this, and they immediately unleashed a fierce barrage of attacks toward the ground.
The Blood River Godslayer Array’s defenses covered the ground as well, so their attacks were kept at bay. Where had Tang Wulin and A’Ruheng gone?
In the next instant, Tang Wulin and A’Ruheng returned to the secondary tree of life amid a flash of light.
At this point, all of the Limit Douluos were already waiting anxiously around the tree. They believed that no harm would befall Tang Wulin, but that still didn’t prevent them from growing nervous as time passed.
The Holy Spirit Douluo immediately rushed over in an urgent manner. “Don’t ever take a risk like that again! What is that purple thing?”
She instantly sent a beam of holy light shining down upon Tang Wulin, and only after making sure he was unharmed did she allow herself to heave a huge sigh of relief.
A’Ruheng turned to Tang Wulin with a perplexed expression. “What happened? Weren’t we supposed to be unable to teleport away?”
Tang Wulin was no less befuddled. “Someone helped us by tearing a rift into the Blood River Godslayer Array. Even though it was only for an instant, that was enough for me to contact the secondary tree of life and teleport the two of us back here.”
That’s right, as soon as the voice and the suction force appeared, Tang Wulin had immediately sensed the aura of the secondary tree of life. A rift had been opened up in the Blood River Godslayer Array, and he had used that to teleport himself and A’Ruheng away.
This sounded very simple, but the fact that their rescuer was able to tear a rift into an array with such incredible defensive prowess indicated that they had to be a core member of the Holy Spirit Cult or the abyssal plane.
The abyssal creatures wanted nothing more than to have him dead, so there was no way that they would release him, but Tang Wulin couldn’t recall anyone from the Holy Spirit Cult he shared a positive relationship with, either!
He had been surrounded by sworn enemies, so who was the one that had helped him?
The voice at the time was extremely faint, and he had been struck by a sense of familiarity and a willingness to trust the owner of the voice, but he couldn’t identify who the voice belonged to.
After Tang Wulin recounted what had happened, everyone from the Tang Sect and Shrek Academy was also unable to think of anyone from the Holy Spirit Cult that would be on their side.
Even though Tang Wulin wasn’t a member of the federal military, everyone was aware of just how important he was for the human army, and one of the main reasons that the Blood River Godslayer Array had been activated was most likely to trap him!
Under those circumstances, which member of the Holy Spirit Cult would’ve had the incentive to release him?
“Let’s set this matter aside for now. Fortunately, I didn’t have to teleport back to the academy. How are things going on the front lines?” Tang Wulin asked.
Cao Dezhi replied, “Not good. We failed to achieve what we wanted, and if you hadn’t snuck in to devour some abyssal energy, there would be nothing to show for our efforts. Take a look.”
All of the long-distance surveillance soul tools were aimed at the abyssal passageway, and the massive purplish-black light barrier was visible in the distance.
The explosive power of the 10 ninth-grade soul missiles had already run out, but the Blood River Godslayer Array didn’t seem to have been damaged at all.
Countless abyssal creatures were flooding out of the abyssal passageway, making the abyssal army appear denser than ever and presenting a harrowing sight to behold.
The artillery fire had already ceased after it was discovered that the 10 ninth-grade soul missiles had proven to be ineffective.
Even 10 ninth-grade soul missiles at once hadn’t done anything, so normal artillery fire would just be a waste, and as a result, the assault had to cease.
“By the way, did you just mention the Blood River Godslayer Array?” Zang Xin suddenly asked.
Tang Wulin nodded in response. “I did. Have you heard of it?”
Zang Xin’s brows furrowed tightly as an intensely furious look appeared in his eyes. “Those bastards! No wonder they had to kill so many people; it was all for this!”
Even Cao Dezhi was rather taken aback by his reaction. “What are you talking about?”
Zang Xin took a deep breath to compose himself, and explained, “I once came across an ancient tome that contained the inheritance of an Evil Soul Master, and the final section of the tome contained some details about the Blood River Godslayer Array.”
