Ghost Li's heart was moved, for some reason, he seemed to subconsciously, his body turned and flashed into another tunnel, hiding in a dark corner with his back against the wall, holding his breath, at the same time quietly hugged Xiao Hui, using his hand to cover its mouth.
Xiao Hui was already intelligent, seemed to understand something and immediately quietened down, crouched in Ghost Li's arms and did not move.
The passageway fell into silence, but this silence did not last long. After a moment, a sudden whistling sound came from the passageway, mixed with heavy panting. For some reason, it sounded more like a beast than a human.
[Pa!]
A tall figure swept out from the passageway, landed on the ground, looking from the back, that figure was Ghost King, but the person in front of him right now, was completely different from the usual Ghost King, the clothes on his body were somewhat tattered, looking at his limbs and torso, there was a strange feeling that he was a size bigger than usual.
The Ghost King's body was constantly emitting a deep crackling sound. It was unknown what it was, but there was an extremely familiar scent wafting from his body.
A thick smell of blood!
Ghost Li in the dark corner, coldly watched that figure!
Ghost King did not stay where he was for too long. After he landed, he looked around and walked towards the red light at the end of the platform. He walked very quickly, very anxiously, as if there was something he eagerly desired waiting for him in front of him. He did not even carefully examine the strange bloodstains on the ground around him.
When Ghost King's figure disappeared into that dark red flickering cave, Ghost Li unhurriedly walked out from the darkness, he stared at that place, a strange glint flashed in his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.
Xiao Hui slowly climbed up from his arms, sat on his shoulder, quietly called out twice.
Ghost Li was silent for a moment, was about to turn but suddenly his body shook, his countenance changed greatly, right now this Majestic Fox Mountain was shaking, the situation was strange, danger was everywhere and at this moment, Ghost King came here alone, and clearly there was an evil energy around him, very different from usual.
But, BiYao …
At this moment, Ghost King had gone to the blood pool, who would be protecting BiYao?
Ghost Li's face instantly turned pale, his mind buzzed, where would he dare to hesitate, like lightning he suddenly leapt up, darted into that tunnel, sped away.
Along the way, he kept chanting in his heart:
BiYao … BiYao … you must be alright …
The entire Majestic Fox Mountain was shaking, this was the feeling in Ghost Li's heart, until now, the duration of the earthquake this time had already far exceeded the past and right now there was no sign of it stopping, on the contrary, the tremors under his feet and the surrounding walls were still intensifying.
Strange collapsing sounds were heard far and near, making one tremble with fear, after Ghost Li swept out of that secret tunnel, dashed out of Ghost King's stone chamber, that stretch of Ghost King Sect's tunnels before him, were already destroyed beyond recognition.
Rocks were falling from the stone walls everywhere. The originally unobstructed passage had turned into a crooked path filled with potholes and piles of rocks. More and more rocks, bigger and bigger, were falling from the stone walls. Intense rumbling sounds came from the depths of the mountain, mixed with the earthquake, causing people to feel the unknown terror.
As Ghost Li swept out, he soon discovered from those interconnected tunnels, innumerable Ghost King sect disciples like frantic and fearful ants, disregarding everything, all ran towards the cave exit, this sect's strict rules, at this moment of life and death, finally lost all its effect, no one cared about it anymore.
The crowd gathered into a river, Ghost Li's anxious steps were soon blocked by the crowd, at this moment, everyone was running for their lives, no one cared about his vice sect leader title, no one made way for him.
Other than people, it was still people.
Ghost Li who was burning with anxiety strode forward, pushed aside the bodies in front of him and squeezed forward, however in front of him, it was still people and very soon, behind Ghost Li, a large group of fleeing Ghost King sect disciples gathered.
He was like an angry little fish in a huge shoal of fish in the deep sea, desperately struggling and pushing his way out. However, the crowd he was in was so crowded that even a few feet above the people's heads, he could see human bodies from time to time.
BiYao …
Under his feet, there was another violent tremor. This tremor was so strong that all the people in the crowd involuntarily fell to the side. In the midst of panic, there were cries of fear and loud roars everywhere. There were also cries of pain coming from all directions. Among the crazy people, someone fell and was trampled to death in pain and fear.
Ghost Li's eyes were bloodshot, his mouth dry, his mind even felt slightly dizzy, ahead, what was waiting for him, what would it be?
BiYao … in his heart he shouted with all his might.
With great difficulty, he followed the crowd and squeezed through this passage, Ghost Li turned at a fork, the cold stone chamber and Ghost King's chamber were quite a distance apart, right now he only needed to turn back along this path and walk to the end. However, Ghost Li's body had just turned around and looked ahead, his body stopped, his face showed some despair.
On this path, there were also numerous Ghost King sect disciples squeezing together, trying their best to escape, the path just now although Ghost Li was moving slowly but he was still moving with the flow, right now he had to go against the crowd, looking at the faces of the people who were almost crazed because of fear, Ghost Li's heart sank.
The earth quaked and the mountains shook, strange noises repeated, people continued to escape in madness and despair, and behind the crowd, in that lonely stone chamber, how was that person, was she hurt by the stones?
Did she see, a man shouting loudly in the crowd, with a kind of craziness similar to the surrounding people who were fleeing, desperately rushing against the flow, towards the cold stone room where she was, inch by inch nearer …..
Rumble!
A loud sound exploded behind the crowd. Under the violent tremors, a huge crack on the stone wall cracked like the skin of a watermelon, collapsing and shattering. One of the boulders, which was almost the size of the entire passageway, smashed into the crowd.
In an instant, blood flashed, and blood splattered. More than ten people had died just like that, and it was unknown how many were injured. While they were shocked, the terrified crowd rushed forward with all their might. The path of escape was blocked by the huge rocks, and the terrified people behind the rocks let out cries of despair.
Under the huge stone, bright red blood flowed, staining a large area of the ground.
Despair pervaded the crowd, people pushed and hit that huge stone with all their might, however the hard and huge stone was not what they could move, it still remained cold and motionless.
The earthquakes and distant deafening sounds, carrying the smell of death, seemed to be nearing.
At this moment, the person closest to the boulder suddenly felt a cold light coming from the front. A moment later, the boulder suddenly trembled slightly. Then, the trembling quickly became more intense, and a series of explosive sounds burst out from within the boulder.
[Rumble!] With a loud bang, the boulder was shattered into pieces. Large pieces of gravel fell down amidst the flying smoke and dust. However, the crowd was overjoyed. How could they care so much? They lifted their feet and were about to continue rushing forward.
"Cough cough, cough cough …" A series of light coughs came from behind the flying dust in front of them. A figure seemed to be staggering as he slowly walked over. The dust landed on his face and shoulders, but he did not reach out to wipe it off. His pale face was flushed with a strange redness as if he had expended too much effort.
Ghost Li.
What welcomed him was pairs of surprised eyes, but no one thanked him. Before they could thank him, their minds were once again occupied by the thought of escaping. The crowd was stirred, and the people in front were already running over. The scene of the crowd just now was about to happen again.
"Stop!"
A deafening shout, suddenly came from Ghost Li who was standing in the dust, the people in front abruptly stopped, at this moment, Ghost Li's so called vice sect leader status could no longer restrict them, what could make them fear, was only the same threat of death.
The man with red eyes, held the Soul-Absorbing orb in his hand, the Sinister Orb glimmered with traces of blood light, it was operating to the extreme, the cold murderous intent, like the tide surged over, the same cold words, came out from his body.
"Whoever dares to block my way again, the stone just now will be your outcome!"
The crowd was stunned, the billowing dust made everyone believe in Ghost Li's danger, and his eyes carried a crazy blood red glow, made everyone unable to ignore his threat, quietly, the crowd made a narrow path for him, only allowing one person to pass through, it was too small but it was already the limit.
Ghost Li did not say anything, he strode forward, squeezed into the crowd, ran towards the direction of the cold stone room.
Ahead, at the end of the crowd, there was another person, waiting for him …
No matter what, he must go over!
He clenched his teeth tightly, and a thin line of blood flowed out of his lips unknowingly. He looked rather terrifying, and no one around him was willing to look him in the eye. Everyone avoided him as if he was an evil spirit.
Just that Ghost Li did not care, he just ran with all his might, pushing aside everyone in front of him, following that narrow path which seemed like it would be drowned by the crowd at any time, ran with big strides, going against the flow.
In this world, how many people were worth caring for?
Suddenly, from the depths of the ground, came the rumbling of thunder again. A moment later, another wave of violent earthquake struck, the stone walls trembled violently, large pieces of rocks fell one after another, mercilessly smashing into the crowd, people crying everywhere, in the blink of an eye, the violent tremors made it almost impossible for people to stand, people swaying left and right could be seen everywhere.
No one knew who was the first to suddenly shout in extreme fear, recklessly rushing forward. A moment later, everyone did the same thing, completely forgetting all other dangers.
The small path which was already in danger, immediately turned into nothingness, countless people flocked over, turning into a terrifying torrent, immediately enveloping Ghost Li within, desperately rushing towards another direction. Ghost Li's eyes were about to split open, with a loud roar, the murderous aura around him intensified, his left hand suddenly stretched out, like grabbing a little chick, immediately grabbed a fleeing Ghost King sect disciple and pulled him in front of him, at the same time his right hand raised the Soul-Absorbing stick high up, about to strike down, to kill to establish his might.
In the faint red light, the Sinister Orb glimmered with demonic light, illuminating that terrified young face.
He was a youth in his teens, his face pale, his body trembling incessantly because of the extreme fear, his teeth chattering, only a pair of eyes, still flashed with light, that little bit of weak light.
That was the remnant instinctive desire to live!
That instant, seemed to freeze, the cold murderous intent and the madness in his heart, the faint light from the Soul-Absorbing stick, in the crowd, at the end of the crowd, who was watching from afar?
The blood-red light, quietly faded from Ghost Li's eyes, replacing it, suddenly were indistinct tears, he released his hand, he let go of that cowering youth, suddenly with a loud roar, the Soul-Absorbing stick like the wind stabbed out, broke the stone and pierced into the hard stone wall beside.
Ghost Li tightly held onto the Soul-Absorbing stick, stuck close to the stone wall, buried his head deep into the darkness.
The stream of people was like a surging tide, gushing past behind him. Countless bodies squeezed him, pressed on him, collided with him, and crushed him. However, he endured it without moving, as if he had transformed into a lifeless rock, silently waiting.
That youth was swept up by the crowd, involuntarily surging forward, however in that surging tide, he kept turning his head back, a strange glint in his young eyes. In the midst of the crowd, he desperately searched for that lonely and persevering figure, just that, that figure very quickly disappeared in the crowd, could not be seen anymore.
