In mid-air, the jade scepter on Chen Nan's body emitted a resplendent brilliance. When the brilliance dissipated, the blurry figure of a woman in white appeared in mid-air. She turned her head and glanced at Cheng Hao's departing figure before smiling thoughtfully.
"Chen Nan, that friend of yours is quite interesting. He's very clear about his own strength and his will to live is unusually strong."
As she spoke, the woman in white turned her gaze to the old man in mid-air. Her voice carried a hint of mockery, "Old man, you didn't kill that person. It seems that you've taken a fancy to his physical body, right? What, you want to cultivate him as a target for possession? "
"Hehe, you can tell?" The old man's owl-like voice rang out. He did not hide his intentions in the slightest. "So what if I can tell? You're all my chess pieces. I can control you however I want. What can you do to me? "
With regards to the confrontation between the white-robed woman and the old man, Cheng Hao didn't have the slightest intention of stopping to watch the battle. The danger perception of a Worldly Immortal expert was urging him to leave the battlefield as soon as possible. Otherwise, he would be in danger of dying.
After running for dozens of miles in one breath, Cheng Hao could no longer see the figures of the old man, the woman in white, and Chen Nan. Only then did the sense of danger in his heart ease a little.
Arriving at the side of a large river, Cheng Hao did not hesitate at all. He leaped up and dove into the river. The golden blood in his body spurred on and his entire body sank rapidly. Very soon, he had dove dozens of meters deep.
As Cheng Hao dove into the river, the old man's enraged roar rang out from the distant sky.
"Little stinking bug, I'm going to tear you to shreds..."
The rolling sound waves shook the earth, and the white clouds in the sky exploded, drifting in all directions. A few mountains on the surface of the earth collapsed with a loud bang. Rocks shot everywhere, and smoke and dust billowed. Large tracts of forest fell to the ground, and leaves drifted down. In the distance, a few surging rivers roared and surged out of the riverbanks, changing their course.
Sensing the sudden increase in pressure in the river, the speed of the water instantly increased. Cheng Hao raised his blood and qi to the maximum. His martial will spread out, and the suppressive force temporarily suppressed the pressure in the river. Then, like a golden arrow of light, he dove into the sand at the bottom of the river.
Cheng Hao knew that the battle between the old man and the woman in white had completely erupted. It might not be safe even if he were to stay at the bottom of the river. Therefore, without any hesitation, he circulated his two Earth Extremity acupoints at full force. Like a burrowing rat, he quickly dove into the depths of the ground.
It was unknown how deep he had dove into the ground. When Cheng Hao finally could no longer feel the aftershocks from the battle, he heaved a sigh of relief. He performed the Heavenly Serpent Aura Concealing Technique and retracted all of his aura. He was like a piece of rock in the ground, not moving at all. There was no hint of life in him at all.
After an unknown period of time, earth-shaking rumbling sounds rang out incessantly. Many spatial cracks kept appearing in various parts of this world. Even the depths of the river that Cheng Hao was hiding in had started to collapse. The terrifying spatial slicing force wreaked havoc, causing Cheng Hao to wake up from his near-death state.
"This is the sign of the collapse of the inner world. It seems that the battle has reached its final stage. According to the plot, the physical body of the person who set this up has already been shattered. In order to not perish together with the inner world, the other party should have severed the connection with the inner world. This is the best opportunity to leave this small world!"
As a martial arts expert who had also opened up his inner world, Cheng Hao knew very well that when his inner world started to collapse, the passageway connecting to the outside world would also be opened up. This was the best opportunity to escape.
Without the slightest hesitation, Cheng Hao unleashed all of his strength. His martial will permeated around him, and he turned into a beam of golden light. Within a few breaths' time, he dashed out of the ground.
By now, the great river on the underground riverbed had already evaporated from the battle earlier. The dried riverbed was filled with scorched traces of battle. Without the time to observe how intense the battle was, Cheng Hao dodged the spatial cracks around him time and time again and rushed toward the centermost position of this world. There, a black passageway that led to the outside world appeared.
The Earth Extremity Two Apertures were activated to the extreme. It was as if the ground had shrunk into an inch. With every step he took, Cheng Hao appeared several hundred meters away. That speed, which was like teleportation, caused his terrifying physical body to show signs of not being able to withstand it. Golden blood seeped through his skin and faintly seeped out.
Whoosh whoosh!
After a rapid dash, when he arrived at the bottom of the passageway, even with the strength of Cheng Hao's physical body, he could not help but pant heavily. After forcibly suppressing the power of his vital energy and blood that was about to boil, Cheng Hao's body tensed up. Then, he leaped up and stepped into the shaky spatial passageway that was about to dissipate.
"Kaka, you really didn't die. You didn't waste this wisp of my remnant soul persisting until now!"
The moment Cheng Hao entered the spatial passageway, a gray remnant soul suddenly appeared out of nowhere. It instantly entered Cheng Hao's body, wanting to take over his body and be reborn.
Bang!
Perhaps the power of the old man's remnant soul was too strong. The moment it entered Cheng Hao's body, the spatial passageway, which was already on the verge of collapse, instantly collapsed. A storm of spatial fragments was set off, and endless spatial blades slashed toward Cheng Hao.
"Damn it!"
Before he could take over Cheng Hao's body, he encountered a spatial storm. The old man, who had already taken Cheng Hao's body as his own, naturally did not want to see this body with limitless potential be destroyed here. With no other choice, he could only divide a portion of his Soul Force and turn it into a gray shield of light to protect Cheng Hao.
As the spatial storm raged, Cheng Hao felt like he was a small boat drifting aimlessly in the turbulent flow of space. He did not know when he would reach the end.
After an unknown period of time, Cheng Hao felt that the power of space around him had dissipated. When his eyes saw light again, he discovered that he was at the top of a mountain.
The mountain peak was covered in white snow, and the howling cold wind was blowing. It seemed that no one had come here. Apart from a thick layer of snow, there was no other scenery.
Normally, Cheng Hao would definitely be in the mood to sigh with emotion. "The scenery of the northern kingdom, a thousand miles of ice, ten thousand miles of snow," or something like that. But now, he was not in the mood at all. This was because in his sea of consciousness, the remnant soul that claimed to be the creator was sneering.
