The Headless Knight only hesitated for a moment, but he didn't seem to have any intention of attacking Mo Xingchen. He squeezed his legs, and the warhorse under him let out a long neigh. The sound of hooves could be heard again, and this time, the direction of the charge was aimed at Wang Zhong and Mu Zi. There seemed to be something on Wang Zhong that attracted him, and he wanted to cut it open to take a look.
Return ~ my ~ head ~ ~ ~
The black light flashed again, and Mo Jiu had recovered from the previous attack. The few young people did their best to block three to five attacks from the Headless Knight for him, buying them enough time. Seeing that Wang Zhong was in danger, Mo Jiu intercepted him in time. This attack was just to harass him and not to fight back. He didn't expect that these few young people would buy him time in this battle. To be honest, he only needed a thought to attack. If he had been a little later, he could have allowed the Headless Knight to kill Wang Zhong and Mu Zi. However, Mo Wen's attack just now made Mo Jiu realize that Mo Wen was treating Wang Zhong as a touchstone for his cultivation.
As a member of the Mo Family, he appreciated this attitude. If not, Mo Wen would at most be on the same level as him, and he hoped that Mo Wen could surpass him. He wanted to have a more comfortable life in the future. Other than that, he also wanted a legacy!
"Old Du, hurry up!!!" Mo Jiu couldn't help but shout while intercepting.
"It's done!"
Just as he turned around, a burst of white light suddenly flashed behind him.
The originally ordinary red crystals in front of Mr. Du were now completely connected. The color of the crystals had also changed from the original red to a transparent white, as if the inner power had been completely extracted.
Mr. Du pressed his hands in the air. "Break!"
A thin air wave suddenly spread out from the connected bodies of more than a dozen suspended transparent crystals, and the unparalleled death aura in the air was instantly blown away. Even the mysterious power that had been sealing this space since the Headless Knight appeared was directly broken by the power of the air wave, revealing the previously sealed canyon passage.
The Headless Knight was furious. He could feel that the seal in his territory had been broken. These people wanted to escape?
He charged forward with a roar. His speed was faster and his strength was stronger than before, but Mr. Du's hands also lifted up almost in sync with his movements.
"Seal!"
The 16 connected transparent crystals instantly dispersed and appeared at the 16 corners of the Headless Knight's body.
Pa pa pa pa pa!
With a series of sounds that sounded like lightning colliding, the electric net condensed, forming a cage-like barrier that trapped the Headless Horseman in the center.
Almost at the same instant that the electric net boundary was formed, the Headless Horseman, who was sprinting at high speed, had already slammed into the side. In an instant, the mountains shook and the ground shook. The loud sound of the collision echoed in the entire canyon. However, the Headless Horseman was unable to break through. The entire boundary only shook a little, and the impact immediately sent Bolsanches flying back.
What kind of barrier was this? It was able to block an all-out attack from a Heavenly Soul Overlord without being damaged at all?
Wang Zhong's eyes were filled with surprise and fanaticism. That was the Headless Knight. Only after fighting it head-on did he know how powerful it was. However, it was actually blocked by a small ward. How could a ward master be so powerful? "Let's go! The barrier won't last much longer!" Mu Zi reminded him reluctantly. Wang Zhong immediately pulled Mu Zi up and retreated quickly on Ham Sausage. They had to be decisive now. If the barrier collapsed, he and Mu Zi might very well be sold. They had to leave first.
Even though the Headless Horseman Bolsanches had been trapped, Mr. Du's face did not look relaxed. His opponent was indeed a Lord. The impact just now had shocked even him. Although the barrier only shook slightly, this was the Sixteen Guardian God Barrier, which was also a top-notch barrier in the Holy Land. A casual attack from a crippled Lord was actually so powerful.
The others didn't dare to delay any further. Mo Jiu picked up the injured Mo Wen, while Mr. Du pulled Mo Xingchen up. At this moment, speed was the most important thing. Even if a soul tool was destroyed, it couldn't be helped. Compared to the lives of a few people, a defensive soul tool was nothing.
Everyone sped toward the canyon passage with all their might. Frankly speaking, Mo Jiu and Mr. Du didn't think that Wang Zhong could keep up with the two of them. Just like that famous joke: If a few people were being chased by a tiger at the same time, you didn't need to run faster than the tiger. You just needed to run faster than your companions.
If the Headless Horseman really broke free before everyone rushed out of the Headless World, with his Warlord ability to control this space, he would probably be able to catch up to them in a few seconds. At that time, having two people that they were not familiar with behind them would be an additional layer of insurance.
There was no deliberate framing or deliberately using him as bait. Mo Jiu and Mr. Du had already done what they needed to do. The opportunity was also placed in front of everyone, just in case. If there had to be sacrifices, it would be much better for others to die than for themselves.
But while they were running, Ham Sausage suddenly opened its bloody mouth and swallowed Wang Zhong and Mu Zi. Immediately after, this cunning guy also turned into a gray fog and disappeared.
Mo Jiu and Mr. Du were stunned for a moment, and their speed increased. Damn it, these two guys were even more cunning than them!
Even with their experience, they had never seen such a strange soul beast that could fight, fight, and run!
In fact, Ham Sausage's greatest strength was acting cute.
The rest of them ran through the canyon like the wind and lightning. Bolsanches' angry roar, as well as terrifying tremors and crashing sounds, could be heard behind them. He was madly crashing into the 16 Guardian God Wards.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Every impact was accompanied by a huge shake of the entire canyon. The ground cracked, and even the mountain walls on both sides of the canyon kept collapsing. Boulders rolled down and even blocked the road, creating obstacles and difficulties for everyone's escape.
After much difficulty, they finally saw the bridgehead of the broken bridge. At this time, without the Headless Knight controlling the canyon, there was no fog on the broken bridge, and it was clearly visible.
At this moment, there was a loud explosion behind them, and a huge wave of fog spread out rapidly from the center in the distance.
The 16 Guardian God Wards had been broken!
The Headless Knight, Bolsanches' voice sounded in everyone's ears again. The speed of the pursuit was too fast. Accompanied by the rapidly spreading wave of fog, it was as if this space was going to be sealed again.
Everyone's hearts were in their throats. Now, they were either injured or disabled. If they were really trapped by the Headless Knight again, even if the two elders fought desperately, they might not have a chance to escape.
No one dared to look back. The exit was already in front of them, but they blindly increased their speed to their limits. The rolling fog spread out from behind and chased after them at a high speed. They could even feel the powerful pressure from the fog behind them. Fortunately, they were one step ahead and rushed onto the broken bridge almost at the same time as the fog.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
With the departure of Mo Jiu and the others, the high-speed pursuit of the Dense Fog came to an abrupt halt at the broken bridge. There seemed to be a clear isolation force there, completely blocking the Dense Fog and the Headless Knight's control.
Even the two Heavenly Souls heaved a sigh of relief. It had been a long time since they had done something so thrilling, and they still had a lingering fear. If anyone had been a little slower, they might not have been able to get out.
Da da da …
The sound of horse hooves sounded on the other side of the broken bridge in the fog. At this time, everyone turned their heads again and saw that the fog on the other side of the broken bridge was rapidly converging and gathering. The figure of the Headless Knight appeared there.
He didn't shout or make any other movements. He just stood there with his spear and horse in front of him. He didn't look at Mo Jiu and the others. Instead, he stared at an empty space on the side, staring, staring …
That was where Ham Sausage was moving. Its Space Stealth didn't seem to be able to hide from a Lord like this.
Both sides looked at each other across the river. Mo Jiu and Mr. Du were already prepared for battle. They didn't know if the Headless Knight would chase after them, but even if he did, it would be slightly easier to deal with him after losing the advantage of being a Lord in his territory. At least, they wouldn't be as passive and powerless as they were in the Headless World.
Whoosh … The Headless Knight didn't choose to continue attacking. Instead, he stretched out his spear and pointed it at them from afar. He then pulled the reins and changed his direction.
The fog emerged again, covering the figure of the Headless Knight, Bolsanches. They could vaguely hear the lonely sound of horse hooves disappearing at the end of the broken bridge. Only then did everyone heave a long sigh of relief.
Frankly speaking, when they looked at the Headless Knight across the river, everyone seemed calm, but they were still a little scared. If he really chased after them, even if he lost the Lord's halo, his terrifying brute force would definitely be enough to make everyone suffer. The two elders might be able to escape if they risked their lives, but they really didn't know what kind of price they would have to pay.
Mo Jiu's eyes were filled with anger. The source of the Headless World's information was too suspicious. Thinking about the consequences if the other party succeeded, it would be unimaginable. Fortunately, he had asked Mr. Du to help him before he set off. If he had been a little more arrogant, he would have been dead meat.
He was an impatient person. If there weren't outsiders present, he would have cursed out loud. At this moment, he immediately wanted to return to the Mo Family to investigate. In addition, Mo Wen had taken a blow from the Headless Knight and looked rather dispirited, so he had no intention of being polite with Wang Zhong.
Mr. Du was checking Mo Wen's injuries when Mo Wen waved his hand. He actually still had the strength to take a blow from the Great Lord. "Senior Du, I'm fine. Cough, cough …"
After a bout of coughing, Mo Wen coughed out a bunch of black blood, but his complexion was much better. "The might of a Lord is indeed extraordinary. I've learned something."
Mo Jiu and Mr. Du were stunned for a moment, and then they both showed gratified smiles. This was his courage and toughness. Perhaps, this trip was not in vain.
"Wang Zhong, when my Dharma Idol is completed, I will definitely look for you. Don't let me down!" Mo Wen said in a low voice. He didn't care if Wang Zhong could hear him or not. This time, he took the initiative to attack with all his might, and it was the first move of a loser. He fell behind in the CHF, so this time, he had to declare war first. This was etiquette, and Wang Zhong should understand it.
"Mo Wen, we of the older generation all think highly of you, so we won't make things difficult for that kid. However, the Holy Land is a place with a bunch of stupid rules. It's none of our business if he gets delayed," Mr. Du said with a smile.
Mo Xingchen also smiled and didn't refute, but she knew in her heart that Wang Zhong wasn't a person who abided by the rules.
At this time, Wang Zhong and Mu Zi had been brought back to the coordinates of the pyramid by Ham Sausage. After escaping, Mu Zi looked a little better. Injuries were a common occurrence, and Wang Zhong protected him. It took about an entire day for Mu Zi's complexion to gradually recover. His Life and Death Coffin was really a divine artifact. It seemed that as long as he didn't die, there would always be a way out.
While Mu Zi was healing his injuries, Wang Zhong was also thinking. This battle had indeed proven the importance of Soul Power. Without Soul Power, everything was in vain. Aiolos's courage and confidence came from his Soul Power. After returning to the Holy Land this time, he had to find a way to increase his Soul Power to the peak. As long as he did so, he really had nothing to fear within the Heroic Soul Stage, unless it was someone at Mu Zi's level. He also looked for more information about the confrontation with the Vicinity Dharma Idol. After seeing Mo Wen's Dharma Idol, this idea was particularly prominent. Underestimating the heroes of the world would definitely lead to failure. His own Dharma Idol probably couldn't withstand a blow from a Lord, but Mo Wen did it. Although he was injured, he didn't seem to have suffered any serious injuries.
The key was that he dared to face a Lord head-on with all his might. How domineering was that!
It seemed that after the CHF, Mo Wen's progress was much greater than his. To be honest, if he hadn't been lucky enough to borrow the power of heaven and earth to comprehend the Ruler's Dharma Idol in the desert of Tutankhamun, he probably wouldn't be strong enough now.
The two ultimate moves that he had comprehended were indeed good group attacks or single point attacks, but the problem was that such battles were only suitable for fighting brainless Dimensional creatures. Were they really suitable during battles?
At this level, who would give him so much time to prepare? If he had enough time, he would have died hundreds of times already.
Wang Zhong had indeed fallen into a certain dilemma. How exactly was he going to unleash his power in the Heroic Soul Stage? There were so many things that he had to do, such as body tempering, alchemy, gourmet food, wards, and the bottomless pit of Cellular Cosmology. It was a super deep pit, and he felt like he couldn't split himself into two.
However, he had to sort out these things first and increase his Soul Power first. This was the most important thing. He might have to ask Teacher Lan Daier for help. This wasn't the time to be pretentious. Of course, he couldn't live off a woman. Although Teacher Lan Daier might not be lacking in this aspect, he was a man after all.
Looking at Mu Zi, whose complexion was gradually improving, Wang Zhong could only count on him. There was a good demand for Samsara wine. Of course, ordinary Holy Disciples couldn't afford to drink it. It was only for teachers and above, but there wasn't enough for now.
The next day, Mu Zi had almost recovered, and he was in a very good mood. It seemed that he was happy to have friends accompanying him. Mu Zi didn't forget about the Samsara wine. The place where the Samsara wine was brewed was also in the Life and Death Realm, but it wasn't a place like the Decapitation Canyon. Mu Zi brought Wang Zhong to another place that the Life and Death Realm led to — the Carefree Valley.
This was a completely different world from the Decapitation Canyon. Just like its name, there were exotic flowers and plants everywhere, blue skies and white clouds, and all kinds of strange little animals running around, not afraid of humans at all.
