C2358 No Place to Hide
The moonlight gradually illuminated the earth once more. After the baptism of rain, the world became more clear than ever before. Under the moonlight, the ground seemed to be covered by a layer of transparent white gauze.
The only thing that broke the atmosphere were the miscellaneous piles of corpses lying on the ground. Under the powerful pressure created by the transformation of the earth vein, horned dragon and water dragon's vein, their blood and bones had been completely shattered, turning into a pile of minced meat. Even the people closest to them would not be able to discern their identities from the number of corpses that littered the ground right now.
The smell of fresh blood slowly rose up into the air. The strong smell of blood made people want to vomit.
However, under this kind of situation, the people in the arena did not even dare to breathe loudly. Furthermore, all of their gazes were focused on the back of Lin Bai, who was not far away. Although the figure had already returned to its normal form after the Earth Vein Horned Dragon dissipated, the spectators still felt an invisible pressure emitting from Lin Bai's back, causing their souls to tremble.
Even now, these people who came to participate in the battle were unable to understand what was going on with those two horned dragons that suddenly appeared just now. Although they were able to tell that the two horned dragons were the confluence of auras and were not truly living beings from legends, the attacks that they had displayed were enough to make them tremble.
It was only a light and clever strike, yet it caused the mountains to crumble and caused the hellish assassins who had been hiding in the shadows and mocking them to die. This method could be said to be a miracle.
They also could not believe that if the horned dragon was not targeting these hellhitmen, but them, then what would happen to them now would be the same as the hellhounds on the ground, who had just become corpses.
If it was really replaced like this, the result wouldn't be any different. After a long period of thought, everyone came to the same conclusion. They all clearly felt that the dragon's attack was simply not something that a person like them could stop. Before that attack, they could only submit to it and could not fight against it.
Furthermore, at this moment, there were many people from the various sects in the arena who had already made up their minds. From this moment forward, they would absolutely not underestimate the Godly Mage Faction, and they would even warn their disciples to show enough respect to them. If it wasn't a crucial dispute over benefits, then they would absolutely not cause any trouble at all.
They could imagine that after witnessing this scene, if there were people who still did not change their minds and dared to act recklessly, then the outcome that that person would have to bear would most likely not be any better than the hell assassins today …
Lin Bai paid no heed to the thoughts of the people in the arena. His attention was completely focused on the corpses in the arena. Although the hellhounds who were originally here had now been turned into a pile of corpses, he was still using secret techniques to deduce if there were any fish that had escaped the net.
"The people from the Infernal Realm did not die. Before the Earth Vein Horned Dragon attacked, a portion of them had already escaped!" After carefully examining the source energy, Lin Bai came to this conclusion.
He even suspected that Yao Guangxiao's plan was not simply to lure people into his trap and kill them here. Instead, he wanted to give the core forces enough time to move around.
"What should I do? Senior Lin, what should we do? " Upon hearing Lin Bai's words, everyone in the crowd instantly cried out in alarm. Not only that, they even addressed Lin Bai with the word 'senior' in unison.
Controlling the Feng Shui lines to turn the situation into his own could already be considered a miracle, how could he not call them 'seniors'?
Furthermore, they were very clear that if what Lin Bai said was true, and if all the people in the Infernal Realm were not killed, it would definitely lead to an incomparably tragic nightmare in the future. The situation today could be said to have moved the world to this place. The conflict between them and the Infernal Realm had become one where they would fight to the death. As long as the Infernal Realm remained, it would definitely retaliate with its life on the line.
They could not imagine, if they let the people in hell escape, they would lose Lin Bai's protection, and then when the hitmen from hell take revenge on them, how they would be exhausted. At that time, the Gate of Wonder would probably be completely covered by the bloody rain and the stench of blood. If they continued to fight, everyone would never have a peaceful day again.
However, there was a saying that goes, one person to hide a treasure, a hundred people are hard to find. Although this island wasn't very large, it was at least a thousand miles long. As for the hellhitmen, they certainly knew the terrain of this place well. If they truly wanted to hide, unless they wanted to, no one would be able to track them down.
These hellhitmen were not idiots. How could they just sit there and wait for death? After going through such a long period of development, their foundation was deep and unfathomable. How could they not have a way to protect themselves? Perhaps before they even discovered their location, these people would have already fled from the island, escaping into the ocean.
The sea was vast, and searching for their whereabouts would probably not be much easier than searching for a needle in a haystack.
At this moment, all of their brows were tightly knitted together. Every single one of them was terrified, their eyes glued to Lin Bai.
"It doesn't matter. The island is surrounded by the sea. They don't have the ability to escape into the sky or earth. Even if they want to escape, they won't be able to." Lin Bai said indifferently. He sat down cross-legged and began to use his phase projection to stir up the world, searching for the whereabouts of the fish that had slipped through the net.
After he had traversed this path, Lin Bai's accomplishments in the art of phase change had also improved tremendously. Even though the body was not compatible with the Heavenly Dao and it could not sense the heavens and the earth, it was like a spectator who had formed the heaven and earth.
However, as the saying goes, the spectators are all spectators and the spectators are all spectators. And now that Lin Bai had achieved a perverse level, it was as if he had become a spectator. All that he had deduced was even clearer than what he had deduced in the past.
When everyone heard this, their faces revealed a look of anticipation. They surveyed their surroundings and quietly waited for Lin Bai's result.
Countless strange auras unceasingly flowed out from Lin Bai's body, causing his body to emit waves of great Dao radiance, which then seeped into the heavens and earth, constantly evolving.
The heaven and earth interweaved, and under the brilliant light, Lin Bai seemed to become the only independent entity in this world. The myriad Daos and his body slowly fused, appearing extremely mysterious, causing one to naturally feel a sense of awe.
Looking at Lin Bai's current appearance, Chen Baian, Zhang SanKuang and Shen Lingfeng could not help but look at each other in dismay. Even though they could tell that the method that Lin Bai was currently using did not exceed the limits of the phase transformation technique, everything that he was displaying had already far exceeded the scope of the phase transformation technique that they understood.
They were able to deduce with absolute clarity that the current Lin Bai had undergone an unfathomable transformation after his trip to the Boneyard. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to wield the Dragon Controlling Technique and undergo such a phenomenon.
But unfortunately, they had no way of knowing what exactly was the transformation that Lin Bai underwent. He wondered what kind of transformation this transformation would bring to Lin Bai, and what kind of changes it would bring to them …
Weng! * With a tremble, Lin Bai's eyes suddenly opened, and a brilliant light shone from within. Countless mysterious runes swirled endlessly within his eyes, as if they had already outlined tens of thousands of different worlds in front of him.
"Found it!" After a moment of silence, Lin Bai slowly stood up, revealing an indifferent smile on his face, and said faintly with a hint of ridicule: "I didn't think that these Yao Guangxiao's disciples would actually learn everything about their master, and find a mouse hole to hide from me. You actually think that this kind of hiding can hide from me? It's ridiculous to the extreme, and that hell has run out of energy! "
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Bai raised his hand and gestured, taking the lead with quick steps, as if he was flying, towards the hiding place of the hellhitmen that he had deduced, and dashed away, vowing to eliminate all these unknowable, cruel variables from the world.
After a short trek, Lin Bai stopped in front of a tall and straight stone wall. Staring at the scene before them, everyone in the crowd couldn't help but furrow their brows, not understanding what Lin Bai was trying to say.
The stone wall was as smooth as a mirror. There weren't any traces of human hands digging on it, so how could it be a hiding place? They even started to suspect if Lin Bai had made a mistake while performing the art.
"Come out! This young noble has been extremely familiar with this kind of cat trick since a few years ago. You want to hide in front of me? Against everyone's expectations, Lin Bai sneered as he looked at the glowing stone wall. He waved his hand forward and said faintly, "The situation is set, do you think you can escape?"
As the sound of his voice faded, before anyone could react to Lin Bai's words, Lin Bai's right fist had already punched out. Blood energy instantly transformed into the Innate True Divine Light, like rolling thunder, it abruptly struck the stone wall, causing cracks to appear.
Immediately after, the crowd was stunned when they realised that the powder was flying in the air, landing in front of them. However, there wasn't any pain, and the powder instantly vanished into nothingness. This method was not unfathomable, but it was a pity that what they had encountered was the ancestor who had used this trick!
The smoke and dust dissipated, and shockingly, a group of hellhounds clad in black suddenly appeared in front of the crowd.
