The God Slaughtering Formation was a forbidden formation used to kill gods in ancient times. As long as the caster of the formation core was powerful enough, even true gods would find it difficult to escape.
There were only two ways to crack the God Slaughtering Formation. One was to destroy the formation core outside the formation world, and the other was to use a force that the formation world could not withstand to forcefully crack it.
People trapped in the formation world obviously had no way to destroy the formation core outside the formation world. Therefore, without the help of others, the only way to escape the formation world alone was to use a force that even the God Slaughtering Formation could not withstand to tear open an exit.
In the world of the sixth level, four Level Lords had once gathered. The assessment program had given them the order to expel the 'virus'. However, against the 'invading virus' Kali, even though she had sealed her strength to the Psionic Mortal Realm, the Level Lords still could not see any chance of victory. Therefore, they activated the forbidden formation used to kill gods in ancient times.
Even someone as powerful as Kali was unable to crack the God Slaughtering Formation in a short period of time after sealing her strength. Finally, in order to save Shi Xiaobai, she had no choice but to use the 'corruptive power'. She did not hesitate to transform into a fallen pixie that she despised the most.
And at that moment, the array formation that Shi Xiaobai and Dawn were trapped in was the God Slaughtering Formation. Although the array core that formed the array formation was far from the extravagant level of 'four Level Lords', with just their strength alone, even if they were to use the power of Sword Soul and Excalibur at the same time, it was impossible for them to exceed the limits of the array world. It was undoubtedly a pipe dream for them to crack the God Slaughtering Formation.
If no one helped destroy the formation core outside, it was impossible for them to escape the formation world.
However, the two of them did not know that the world they were in was an unsolvable formation world. They were still attempting to find a way to escape that did not exist at all.
However, racking their brains did not last long because the monsters that surrounded them were beginning to attack the Black Tortoise's shell from every direction. Cracks began to appear on the transparent turtle shell.
After withstanding the bombardment of the black beams for such a long period of time, even the Black Tortoise's shell that could be considered a divine artifact could not last much longer under the barrage of monsters.
"There's no time."
Dawn made the calmest judgment and said to Shi Xiaobai, "The Black Tortoise's shell can't last much longer. Now is not the time to consider how to escape this world. We need to first think of a way to escape from the encirclement of these monsters."
To put it simply, the biggest problem now was how to survive.
Shi Xiaobai nodded and temporarily put aside his thoughts of 'escaping this world'. He surveyed his surroundings and no matter where he went, he was surrounded by monsters. Furthermore, more and more monsters were approaching from afar. At this moment, it was as though they were in the middle of a sea of monsters. The sky was densely packed with flying monsters. At the instant the Black Tortoise's shell was broken, they would definitely be drowned by the monsters.
How could he escape in such a situation?
Dawn was clearly considering how to escape from the horde of monsters while Shi Xiaobai was thinking of how to escape from this world. She directly voiced her thoughts.
"In a while, I will use the power of my Sword Soul to forcefully open up a path. We will take the opportunity to escape the encirclement of the inner layer as fast as possible. Although there are many monsters in the outer layer, the outer layer is vast after all. It's impossible for the monsters to occupy all of them. As long as we find the gaps between them, we can use our movement techniques to escape. I believe the further we go to the outer layer, the more gaps there will be."
Dawn said calmly, "Anyway, let's leave this place first. When we reach a slightly safer place, we can consider how to escape this world."
Shi Xiaobai was slightly taken aback as he seriously considered Dawn's solution.
The inner layer was filled with monsters, but the outer layer was large after all. There were indeed many gaps between the monsters. If they could escape the inner layer's encirclement, the chances of successfully escaping would be very high.
However, in order to forcefully open up a path of survival, Dawn needed to use the power of her Sword Soul once again. Could she withstand using it three times consecutively in such a short period of time and expending so much energy?
Most importantly, with the tiny bit of strength he had barely recovered, how long could he use 'Crab Steps'?
Shi Xiaobai carefully considered it as he slowly stood up from the ground. At the instant he stood up straight, his legs involuntarily trembled. He hurriedly focused his energy to make himself look less weak.
Damn it, I only recovered this little bit of strength after such a long period of time?
Shi Xiaobai cursed in his heart. The side effects of recklessly using Excalibur far exceeded his imagination. From the looks of it, he would not be able to recover in a short period of time.
The present situation was too terrible. With the little strength he had left, even if he forcefully used Crab Steps, he would probably only be able to escape the inner layer. When that happened, if he collapsed from exhaustion, the girl beside him would very likely stop in order to save him.
He did not want to die here, but he did not want to be a burden to her.
Regardless, he had to at least let her live.
With this thought in mind, Shi Xiaobai pretended to be calm and said, "Let's do as you say. However, after escaping the inner layer, we will split up. The two of us are too big of a target, so it's easier for one person to break through. Once we reach a sufficiently safe outer layer, we will rendezvous. "
Sorry, This King might not be able to fulfill the promise of 'rendezvous'.
But even if you are alone, please work hard to survive.
Shi Xiaobai sighed in his heart, but on the surface, he acted as though he could not be refuted.
When Dawn heard this, she silently stood up and slowly walked towards him in a deadpan manner. Her icy-blue eyes were colder than ever before.
She slowly raised her hand and pressed it against his chest before suddenly pushing with force.
Shi Xiaobai, who was barely able to stand up straight, was caught off guard as he fell to the ground.
Shi Xiaobai suffused a wry smile in his heart. His thoughts had been easily seen through. The girl was just too smart.
"In your present state, you won't be able to reach the outer layer alone."
Dawn squatted down and looked at him seriously and sternly.
Shi Xiaobai hurriedly grinned and said, "Don't worry. This King is the King of Kings after all, so how can I die here? As long as I use some life-preservation means, these monsters will not be able to do a thing to This King. This King will definitely rendezvous with you in the outer layer, so …"
"Liar!"
The girl's calm voice contained rich emotions as she interrupted Shi Xiaobai's lie.
She sighed and reached out her hand to gently caress Shi Xiaobai's cheek. She whispered, "Do you know that what's more terrifying than death is living in a world with only one person?"
The words that were filled with emotions seemed to hide a story unknown to others. It left Shi Xiaobai silent in response.
"Si …"
Suddenly feeling a pain on his cheek, Shi Xiaobai snapped out of his melancholic state.
He saw Dawn pinching his cheek forcefully as she stared at him with her beautiful icy-blue eyes. Her voice was filled with the emotions of a young girl. "So, the suggestion of running separately is rejected! If we run, we run together. If we die, we die together. Don't speak any more nonsense or I'll really be angry! "
Shi Xiaobai's heart warmed slightly as he felt touched. He was momentarily at a loss for words.
After a few moments, he sighed and said seriously, "This King never gives up easily, but this time, This King does not know how long he can last. You should understand that if we were to run together, This King will only be a burden to you …"
"Come up!"
Shi Xiaobai's words were forcefully interrupted once again.
"What?"
Shi Xiaobai looked up in surprise and saw Dawn squatting on the ground with her back facing him. She said with an unquestionable tone, "Come up, I'll carry you."
The shoulders that were not broad, the slender figure, and the back that outlined the slender curves, as well as the resolute tone of "come up, I'll carry you." It was as though a pair of gentle hands were clasping Shi Xiaobai's heart tightly.
Shi Xiaobai fell silent for a long while before finally shaking his head. He said with a resolute tone, "No, using the power of the Sword Soul for the third time will definitely be extremely draining on you. Under such circumstances, you won't be able to last long while carrying someone. This is no longer a burden, but dragging you to your death. This King will not do that."
Dawn gave a gentle smile and said, "Don't worry. My mental strength has been completely restored. This bit of weight of yours will not affect me at all. Furthermore, with you on my back, the target is equivalent to a person. You don't have to worry that your weakness will drag me down. It's the best of both worlds, isn't it?"
"Liar."
Shi Xiaobai shook his head firmly and said, "In such a situation, carrying someone while dodging will definitely be restrictive. It will also increase the expenditure on your stamina. It will only cause you to be drained faster. This King will absolutely not do that."
Dawn slowly wiped away her smile and looked at Shi Xiaobai in silence for a few seconds. Suddenly, she raised her hand and said, "If you don't come up, I'll knock you out and carry you while running."
Her domineering tone and serious expression indicated that she was definitely not joking.
Shi Xiaobai was astounded, but he knew very well that if Dawn wanted to knock him out, he would not be able to resist with his present strength. Furthermore, resisting would only waste Dawn's stamina, so he obviously could not do that.
But carrying an unconscious person while running through a horde of monsters was too much of a nonsense, right?
No, she was serious. She would really do that!
This was really … too unreasonable!
Shi Xiaobai felt his head hurt. He racked his brains but could not think of a way to convince the resolute girl.
At that moment, he suddenly felt his body turn light.
"Hey!?"
Shi Xiaobai was surprised. The girl had given up on persuading him and had forcefully carried him on her back.
Shi Xiaobai attempted to resist, but he immediately received a warning look.
"Oh?"
Dawn turned her head to glare at him before gently shaking her right hand.
Shi Xiaobai was too deep for tears and could only remain silent. Dawn had suddenly become so domineering. She was trying to tell him that no amount of verbal sparring was of any use. Carrying him on her back was a predestined outcome.
Shi Xiaobai finally gave up on resisting. Compared to being knocked unconscious, it was better to stay awake. If he was knocked unconscious, he would really be unable to do a thing.
"Rip."
At that moment, the sound of clothes being torn was heard. Shi Xiaobai turned his head and saw the girl tearing at her sleeves. She tore off a piece of cloth, revealing half her fair arm.
What was she trying to do?
Half a minute later, the answer was revealed. He saw the girl tear off the cloth into strips of cloth before connecting them into a rope. Following that, she wrapped the rope around her chest and his back, tightly tying them together.
She forcefully tightened the rope. Even though it caused their bodies to be tightly pressed together, she remained unmoved. She only tied the rope tighter so that he would not fall off midway.
However, she seemed to be worried about something else. She suddenly said in a nonchalant voice, "If you dare to forcefully break free from the rope, I will immediately turn around and tie you up again."
Shi Xiaobai was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. The girl had even seen through his thoughts of sacrificing herself in a moment of danger. Her domineering actions did not give him a chance to refuse.
However, such domineering actions made Shi Xiaobai extremely touched.
Shi Xiaobai hesitated for a long while before he finally sighed lightly. He slowly lowered his upper body and wrapped his arms around the girl's fair neck. He rested his head on her shoulder. Although this posture was overly intimate, it was the best way to save her strength.
He had no other choice but to trust her and try his best to recover his strength in the time she bought for him.
However, shouldn't the usual plot of this scene be the boy carrying the girl domineeringly?
Why was it completely reversed when it was their turn?
The script was wrong!
It was rare for Shi Xiaobai to feel a little embarrassed.
However, he did not know that the girl carrying him was even more embarrassed at that moment.
In front of him, where he could not see, Dawn had her head lowered as she gently bit her lower lip. Her cheeks were already flushed red and the light in her eyes constantly trembled. She was bright and alluring, with a hint of youthful charm.
There was a hint of sweetness in her shyness, but there was a tinge of bitterness in the sweetness.
She had mixed feelings, but she only had one thought.
Protect him!
Even if she had to pay with her life!
Dawn looked up at the Black Tortoise's shell that was about to shatter. In the world outside the shell, monsters were baring their fangs and brandishing their claws. Their roars that were filled with killing intent were incessant.
Even if death drowned the entire world.
She would definitely open up a path of survival and live on with him!
If there was no light in this world, then …
"There, Shi Xiaobai, we will definitely live on. Because we have agreed to head there together … "
The girl held up the boy's legs with one hand and held the holy sword named 'Lucifer's Star' in the other. She said softly, "Head to … the end of the world together!"
