Very soon, Han Shuo caught up from behind and caught up with Statholme the old monster and the water divine magus Tiana.
Just as the three of them reached the area where the defense had been penetrated, an incomparably terrifying aura instantly enveloped the entire space. A heavy, suffocating pressure immediately appeared.
Han Shuo and the other two exchanged horrified looks. Suddenly, Statholme the old monster yelled, "Oh no, he's coming out!"
Han Shuo and Tiana both understood who the old monster was talking about. Tiana's graceful and calm expression changed. She hastily extended her hand and pressed it against the space protected by the strange power. An icicle sparkling with cold light suddenly condensed in the palm of her hand. The dense water element within it was extremely frightening. She casually pierced it into the space of the defense.
Creak!
The icicle condensed by the water divine magus felt as if it had stabbed into the hardest iron and stone in the world. The icicle rapidly shattered from head to tail!
The hearts of the three suddenly sank. Old monster Statholme the old monster hastily asked, "Big sister Tiana, what's wrong?"
"The power has increased. I can't break through this defense!" Tiana's voice carried a hint of panic. Her charming face turned somewhat ugly.
Old monster Statholme's eyebrows shot up violently. He had been holding the longsword in his hand and had never put away his space ring. His colorless and formless fighting aura suddenly burst forth with an invincible aura. A dazzling white light flashed.
Clang. Statholme's attack, which he had gathered the rest of his strength to bombard the defensive space, also felt as if he had bombarded an unshakable iron and stone. Old monster Statholme's right arm trembled slightly as he retracted it. His face was aghast as he shouted in a panicked voice, "I can't break through it either!"
One of them used a magical attack, while the other used a physical attack. Both were to no avail!
"That guy has come out. He's strengthened his defense. I'm afraid we can't break through this defense!" Han Shuo said in a low voice as he looked at the two panicking demigod experts. He understood that the six-horned alien must have exerted his strength.
"Buzz …"
A strange whistling sound rang out from afar. It was different from the soul attack that was used against Han Shuo. This whistling sound had a strange effect, as though it could tear the sky apart. Ripples appeared in the sky, and colorful cracks appeared in the void.
Statholme the old monster and Tiana looked at each other and gasped at the same time. They stared at the colorful cracks in the void, their faces ugly to the extreme.
Statholme, who had just taken out a scroll, looked at Tiana, wanting to cry but having no tears to shed. He said, "The space undulations are too violent. There's no way to release space magic scrolls. This bastard has cut off all our hopes of escaping!"
At this point, even Tiana was at her wit's end. She shook her head and sighed, saying, "It looks like we're going to die here. Statholme, I'm the one who got you into trouble this time. Who would have thought that an even more terrifying guy would show up!"
Given the strength of the two demigods, they had no way to break through the defense shrouding the area with their own strength. They could only use the space magic scrolls, which were the best at preserving their lives, to tear through space and escape. However, the appearance of the sharp whistling sound caused the space to crack. Space magic scrolls were completely useless in the chaotic space. To them, there was indeed no hope of escaping.
"I'll do it!" Han Shuo, who had been quiet all along but had maintained his calm, suddenly said.
The reason why Han Shuo had maintained a calm expression and mood from beginning to end was that Han Shuo still had a trump card!
The two demigod experts' gazes instantly landed on Han Shuo. The old monster was dumbfounded, and said, "You, you have a way?"
Without answering, Han Shuo chanted an incantation, and the simple-looking earth elite zombie suddenly appeared. The old monster, Statholme, and Tiana suddenly looked at each other. Their eyes were filled with doubt, as though they had no idea what such a low-level zombie warrior could do at this time.
However, something astonishing suddenly happened right under their noses. They saw the rather simple and honest zombie warrior suddenly melt into the earth as soon as he landed. The hard earth seemed to have no hindrance to him at all. His body rapidly disappeared.
In this world, although earth magi could utilize the energy of the earth, they could only utilize it for attack or defense. They couldn't be like the earth elite zombie, who was the darling of the earth, who could subtly utilize the energy of the earth to travel as he pleased.
Therefore, when the earth elite zombie's body sank into the depths of the earth like water, the two divine priests could only stare blankly at the unbelievable reality placed before them. They were unable to accept the absurdity of the situation, which caused them to be momentarily absent-minded.
"Let's go!" Han Shuo, who had already entered the depths of the tunnel, softly shouted at the two demigods.
The two demigod existences' originally dumbfounded expressions were suddenly replaced by wild joy. They looked at each other, and hastily leaped into the tunnel that the earth elite zombie had opened up.
"Save, save me!" Just as the three descended into the depths of the earth, lightning sacred magus Reynold's cries sounded from afar. His voice was filled with fear, as though he was rushing towards them at high speed.
A heavy, suffocating pressure rapidly approached them from afar. Han Shuo, Tiana, and Tiana, who had just entered the tunnel, immediately understood what had happened. The six-horned alien had come out, and Reynold was fleeing in their direction at high speed. He was probably being pursued by the alien experts!
Han Shuo glanced at Statholme and Tiana, and discovered that the two were simultaneously creasing their brows, but with an extremely tacit understanding, they maintained their silence!
Reynold had been abandoned by the two! Han Shuo immediately understood.
Naturally, Han Shuo knew what to do. He gave an order to the earth elite zombie. The hole above the tunnel that the three had just entered was slowly sealed up by a thick layer of earth.
When Stratholme the old monster and Tiana saw the last ray of light vanish above their heads, they breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. It was as though a boulder had been lifted from their hearts, and their faces relaxed somewhat.
In the darkness, Han Shuo could clearly see their expressions, and gained a deeper understanding of human nature!
Every man for himself, and heaven and earth destroy!
"Thank you, Brian. You are a miraculous young man!" Statholme the old monster, who was following behind Han Shuo, suddenly said.
"You're welcome. We're companions, it's what I should do!" Han Shuo immediately replied in the darkness, but in his heart, he didn't think much of it.
The reason why Han Shuo had brought the other two into the tunnel was because he couldn't be sure whether they would encounter even more terrifying dangers later on. Vaguely, Han Shuo could feel that it wouldn't be so easy to escape this time. With these two seasoned fellows by his side, the three of them might have a higher chance of escaping. That was why he selflessly brought them along.
This time, Han Shuo and the other two had all obtained what they needed. Their strengths weren't too far apart, so they had a higher chance of escaping if they gathered together. As for Reynold, his strength was a whole lot lower than the other three. He was no longer of any use at this time, so it was only natural that he would be abandoned.
"Big sister Tiana, here's your Origin Crystal of Water!" Statholme took out a ruby. As soon as the ruby was taken out, a faint, gentle red light appeared in the darkness. Statholme used the red light to pass the orb to Tiana.
Turning his head to look behind him, Han Shuo saw an irrepressible excitement on Tiana's face. Her hand trembled as she held the orb. Her eyes sparkled as she murmured, "Origin Crystal. I have an Origin Crystal!"
It would take some time to absorb the Origin Crystal. Although the three of them had all obtained what they needed during their escape, none of them had fused their souls with the Origin Crystal.
Tiana had lived for who knew how many years. When the Origin Crystal fell into her space ring, the long years quickly calmed her excited emotions. She took a deep breath and looked at Han Shuo, who was leading the way. She asked, "How much longer until we can get out?"
"Very soon! But I'm sure you can feel it too. Even in the depths of this earth, you can still feel that heavy pressure. I don't think we're truly safe yet!! "Han Shuo replied.
Just two minutes after Han Shuo said those words, earth elite zombie had already broken through the earth. A glaring light emerged from a hole in front of them.
Shortly after, the three leapt out of the tunnel. Han Shuo looked around. Before he could clearly see where he was, his consciousness suddenly felt as though it was being locked on. It was an extremely bad feeling. Han Shuo immediately cried out in alarm, "He knows where we are!"
Although Statholme the old monster and Tiana didn't have as sensitive a perception as Han Shuo's consciousness, the suffocating pressure that had been enveloping them all along had yet to disappear. This made them immediately realize that what Han Shuo said was true.
"Follow me, we'll talk as we go!" Tiana hastily called out. The water vapor around her began to turn hazy again as she flew into the distance. Han Shuo and Statholme followed closely behind.
"That six-horned tribal king of the Soul Race has locked onto our souls. As long as we are on Profound Continent, he will be able to find us. Their race is born with an extraordinary understanding of the soul. I'm sure you've experienced it yourself. There's no way we can break free from his soul lock! "Tiana said to Han Shuo and Statholme the old monster as they ran.
"Soul Race? What race is that? How come I've never heard of it? "Han Shuo furrowed his brows. He maintained the same speed as the other two and hastily asked.
"It's not a race from Profound Continent. However, they once appeared on Profound Continent a few thousand years ago. Then, they mysteriously vanished and have never appeared again. As for why they would appear in Tarrag Canyon this time, I have no idea either.
I learned some things about this race by accident from an ancient scroll. I have no way of knowing the specific secrets from thousands of years ago. It was from their appearance that I guessed they were Soul Race, "Tiana explained to Han Shuo.
As Tiana spoke, her bright eyes flickered for a moment. Han Shuo had a feeling that Tiana should know more about the Soul Race than this. However, since Tiana didn't say it explicitly, Han Shuo didn't press further.
"Big sister Tiana, could it be that this six-horned tribal king of the Soul Race has recognized our souls? Is there really nothing we can do but wait for him to find us and kill us?" Statholme the old monster was most concerned about his own safety and immediately asked about the main point.
"That's not it either. We now have the Origin Crystal in our hands. As long as we fuse it with our souls and form a Soul of Element, even this six-horned tribal king of the Soul Race won't be able to sense the location of our souls. Once the Soul of Element is formed, we will fuse with the omnipresent elements between heaven and earth. Naturally, he won't be able to find us," Tiana explained.
"However, to fuse the Origin Crystal into the soul, the time required is not something that can be done overnight. During this time, he can absolutely locate us according to the location of our souls and kill us one by one. What should we do?" Statholme forced a smile. He had the regret of obtaining a treasure but not being able to enjoy it.
Han Shuo's heart jolted. He recalled that he could use the skeletal staff to descend his consciousness into the netherworld. Separated by an infinite distance of material planes, no matter how remarkable this six-horned tribal king of the Soul Race was, he most likely wouldn't be able to sense the location of his consciousness. In this way, Han Shuo could completely fuse the Origin Crystal in the netherworld first and avoid the pursuit of this terrifying existence.
This was the safest method. Besides, Han Shuo's consciousness was different from Tiana Statholme's soul. When one's demonic arts reached a certain realm, the soul would evolve into an incomparably marvelous consciousness. Han Shuo believed that as long as he was given a bit of time, his consciousness would absolutely be able to find a way to break away from the six-horned Soul Race's detection.
Han Shuo felt relieved when he thought of this. However, Han Shuo was still very curious about this Soul Race. He was not in a hurry to leave, but stayed here to continue listening to the conversation between Tiana and Statholme the old monster.
"We still have another way." Tiana had a strange look on her face as she glanced at Statholme the old monster mid-flight.
"What is it?" the old monster asked hastily, his expression shaken.
"By utilizing the convenience of the transportation matrixes of various nations, we can be a bit faster than them. If we can bring them to a place where they have the strength to contend with them, and have them fight against those terrifying existences on Profound Continent, perhaps we will have a chance to escape with our lives!" Tiana said to Statholme after hesitating for a moment.
The old monster's eyes abruptly lit up. He immediately understood Tiana's meaning and said, "The existences on Profound Continent that can contend against that six-horned Soul Race can be counted on one hand. Moreover, most of them don't have a fixed residence. The only ones with a fixed location are the headquarters of the Church of Light and the Calamity Church!"
Han Shuo, who was about to leave, was startled at first. But soon after, he decisively said, "The Church of Light it is then!"
Tiana and Statholme the old monster both had strange expressions on their faces. The two exchanged glances and remained silent for a while. In the end, they silently nodded their heads, agreeing to Han Shuo's proposal.
The Church of Light, which had always exterminated heretics to the last man, had such an obviously evil race appear in their headquarters. Han Shuo believed that something interesting would happen!
