"Everyone, don't just focus on running away. Let's work together and help each other. Otherwise, looking at the current situation, I'm afraid no one will be able to escape." The skinny old man who pulled the bald man back shouted in a deep voice as he ran.
"What can we do in this situation? It's a competition of speed." As soon as the old man finished speaking, a disdainful voice sounded out from the crowd.
Lu Xiaotian silently mixed in with the group. His speed could only be considered average, and there was nothing special about him. However, he was somewhat anxious. The skinny old man was right. If this continued, none of them would be able to escape.
"I know a place where we can escape this disaster. However, with my current strength, I'm afraid I won't be able to get far. If you're willing to lend me a hand, I'm willing to take you with me. If you're not willing, then we'll die together." In the crowd, a young woman with a mediocre appearance but an enchanting figure spoke quickly. Her face was covered in a thin layer of sweat.
"Nonsense. You're just an early Foundation Establishment cultivator. What can you do?" The young cultivator who had previously refuted the skinny old man snorted.
"Shut up and listen to her," Lu Xiaotian angrily rebuked.
"Brat, you're really arrogant. Once this critical juncture is over, let's see how I'll deal with you." The young cultivator was still glaring fiercely at Lu Xiaotian.
Lu Xiaotian's eyes narrowed and his killing intent flashed. He took a few steps forward. He reached out to grab the young cultivator.
"You're crazy!" The young cultivator was shocked. Behind him were countless black beetles. Although Lu Xiaotian's aura wasn't strong, at this critical juncture, it was too late for everyone to escape. Even if they were mortal enemies, they wouldn't necessarily choose to attack. Even if he could repel Lu Xiaotian, it would take some time.
"Shut up!" Lu Xiaotian coldly snorted. Normally, he wouldn't pay attention to such a noisy person. However, at this critical juncture, not only did he not have the ability, he even tried to stop others from escaping. In addition, Lu Xiaotian was in a bad mood, yet this guy still dared to threaten him. He could only blame this guy for courting death. The angry look in the other party's eyes was laughable.
"You're courting death!" Just as the young cultivator took out his magic tool, he suddenly saw a blur in front of him. Then, a fist carrying astral winds appeared in front of him. With no time to react, the young cultivator quickly took out a shield and placed it in front of his chest.
Boom! Lu Xiaotian's fist smashed into the shield without any fancy moves. The young cultivator cried out in pain, only to feel that the hand holding the shield had become numb from the shock. There was no time to react at all. His entire body slid backwards uncontrollably. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to dissipate the terrifying force of his opponent's attack. However, there were countless black beetles behind him. Hearing the rustling sound, the young cultivator cried out in fear, but the black beetles were already climbing up his trousers. The young cultivator looked as if he had seen a ghost. He didn't have time to ask Lu Xiaotian to save his face. His legs trembled, and a cold aura was emitted from them. Those black beetles that were climbing up his body froze to death and fell to the ground. The young cultivator was secretly frightened. He narrowly escaped the attack of the black beetles behind him.
Seeing Lu Xiaotian's gaze sweep over him, the young cultivator's eyebrows jumped. Although it was only a simple attack, he already realized that he wasn't a match for Lu Xiaotian. His intestines turned green with regret. If he had known earlier, he wouldn't have talked so much and provoked such a powerful enemy. Afraid that Lu Xiaotian would attack again, the young cultivator clenched his teeth and fled in another direction.
"This Fellow Daoist is really straightforward. He directly smashed away the fly in front of him with a punch. However, the identity of this fly is not simple. He is the direct disciple of Ancestor Han Xia. If this person escapes, Fellow Daoist must be careful." The thin old man warned.
To be called an Ancestor by a Foundation Establishment cultivator, he must be at least a Jin Dan cultivator. Lu Xiaotian's expression became unsightly. When it rains, it pours. However, Lu Xiaotian's expression quickly returned to normal. Things that couldn't be changed could only be accepted. The other party didn't know his background. Once the matter of the Gold Condensing Fruit was over, he would return to Full Moon City or Spirit Firmament Palace. Even if the other party had a Jin Dan master, what could they do to him?
"Thank you for the reminder. Just now, you said that you had a way to escape. What is it?" Lu Xiaotian calmed down and looked at the young girl who had spoken before.
"I remember that there is a large lake not far from here. We only need to rush to the lake and dive into the lake. Although the black beetles are powerful, they can't enter the lake. At that time, everyone will be safe." The young girl's voice was somewhat hurried. It was obvious that her Fa Li was running out.
"Enter the lake? This place is so strange. There might be some powerful demonic beasts in the lake. "Immediately, someone questioned.
"Right now, we can only gamble. Perhaps there is a chance of survival if we enter the lake. Even if we encounter a powerful demonic beast in the lake, it is still better than dying in the hands of these black beetles."
Soon, everyone made up their minds.
"Black Water Lake?" As soon as the young girl said this, two twinned cultivators who were around thirty years old in the crowd immediately reacted. Their bodies were slightly startled. After looking at each other, they quickly left the group and rushed in a direction far away.
"You!" The young girl was furious. She didn't expect that someone would burn the bridge after crossing the river. The two brothers who left first obviously felt that the young girl's cultivation was too low. They were worried that she would drag them down, so they directly left. There were also a few people who saw the unforeseen event in front of them. After a moment of hesitation, they rushed in the direction the twins left. Obviously, these people had already approved of the young girl's idea. However, it was only an idea. Since there were already people who knew where the lake was, why should they stay and take the risk with the young girl?
"These bastards are really worthless." The bald man looked at them and cursed. However, there was nothing he could do to change the current situation.
The young girl's face was ashen. In the blink of an eye, most people had already left. Only the thin old man, the bald man, and Lu Xiaotian were left. His cultivation was too low. If they joined forces to help her, they might have a chance to escape. The thin old man and the bald man who had consumed a lot of spiritual power were simply unable to help her. As for Lu Xiaotian, there was a limit to what he could do alone. Moreover, she didn't know what Lu Xiaotian was thinking in the end.
Just as the young girl's heart was filled with despair, a powerful hand suddenly grabbed her shoulder. The young girl only felt her body become light. Her originally slowed speed increased again. When she came back to her senses, she found that the person who saved her was the expressionless Lu Xiaotian.
