Chapter 306: The Final Battle (Part Two)
Over a thousand cultivators fell into the demon realm like dumplings. The demon soldiers in the demon realm quickly responded and began to gather around.
At this moment, Qiao Wan and the others were hiding among the ruins of a crumbling wall. Fang Lingqing was dumbfounded as he stared at a familiar figure in front of him. He whispered in a low voice, "Why is Su Rui here?"
As soon as he looked up, Li Pan pressed him down, shooting him a sideways glance.
Fang Lingqing realized he had been a bit impulsive and immediately blushed.
Qiao Wan held her breath and raised her face slightly. Over the low wall, she looked at the man in armor with a gun not far away.
That face, so similar to Pei Chunzheng's, pale from being in the Carefree City for so long, undoubtedly belonged to the newly appointed war god of the demon realm, Su Rui.
Su Rui's expression showed no emotional changes. He was followed by a dozen elite soldiers, seemingly on patrol.
They were in luck when they landed and ran into Su Rui, a man. They quickly found a low wall to hide behind and their companion, Zhen Xiu, immediately set up a defensive barrier.
By the time they entered the demon realm, it had been almost half an hour.
In the northern region, Gongsun Bingzi frowned when she saw a familiar figure at the end of the sky. She couldn't help but blurt out, "Oh no."
On the distant sky, Qiao Wan and a few others were trapped under a low wall, with no way to escape. Nobody expected that Qiao Wan and her group would have such bad luck, running into Su Rui right after landing.
Even Ma Huaizhen couldn't help but shake his head and exclaim, "What kind of luck does Qiao Wan have?"
The Mudstone Secret Realm, the Ghost Market, and the Cultivation League.
Ma Huaizhen couldn't help but curse under his breath, feeling that everything was just too strange.
Over there, they have been crouching under this short wall for almost the time it takes to burn a stick of incense. Some of the senior disciples in the group have set up a formation to avoid detection, but under Su Rui's strong cultivation, they are starting to struggle and sweat.
If they keep crouching, they won't be able to hold on much longer, but unfortunately, that demon general on the opposite side doesn't seem to have any intention of moving at all!
Xiao Boyang knows how powerful Su Rui is.
And with Li Pan, they are not sure if they can handle the enemy in front of them. Plus, the most important thing is that they have Qiao Wan on their side.
They absolutely cannot let anyone see Qiao Wan or catch her.
Seeing that the enemy remains still, Xiao Boyang's throat feels dry and his heart beats rapidly. He can't help but ask Li Pan, "Elder Li, what do we do now?"
Chu Tongzheng is clearly getting impatient. Her eyes glimmer with a hint of moisture, she licks her lips, and suggests something terrifying, "What if I try to seduce him? You can take Qiao Wan and retreat while he's distracted?"
The other senior brothers silently sighed: "Miss Chu, you've gone too far! Quickly pick up your lost dignity on the ground!!"
Her suggestion was rejected, and Chu Tongzheng showed obvious disappointment in her eyes.
Such a handsome young man, what a waste.
Xie Xingzhi looked serious and asked solemnly, "Can we go around?"
"No." Li Pan immediately dismissed the proposal without hesitation, raising his eyelashes and scanning the juniors in front of him. "His spiritual awareness is extensive, you won't be able to escape."
At this moment, a senior brother with eye techniques carefully observed with his bright red eyes for a while, then said heavily, gesturing in front of his chest, "About a hundred zhang, I suppose."
Qiao Wan couldn't see it, but he could. The area around the man formed a circle, which couldn't be perceived without using eye techniques. It was faint, with a weak glow, with a radius of a hundred zhang centered around him - that was the range his spiritual awareness could cover.
"What about from the sky?" Fang Lingqing asked.
Xiao Boyang spoke up early, "No, it's impossible. The noise we made earlier when coming down was too loud, their attention is all focused on the sky at this time."
And the most important thing is, Su Rui's shape, damn it, it's not flat, it's three-dimensional!!
Ahead, a man in armor walked back and forth with a dozen or so soldiers.
Nestled beneath the opponent's eyelids, not a single person dared to make a sound.
From the side, everything was rejected.
At this critical moment, Xie Xingzhi unexpectedly reached for the heavy sword behind him, his face as calm as water as he volunteered.
"Elder, let me divert his attention."
"No, you can't," Li Pan said calmly, "Su Rui has spent too many years on the battlefield, longer than anyone else here. No matter how fast you are, as soon as you move, he can immediately lock onto this low wall."
Qiao Wan hesitated for a moment and suggested, "Then what about going from the back?"
Before Li Pan could answer her, Chu Tongzheng was the first to respond, "There are people coming from the back."
Well, this is not good.
As Qiao Wan heard the noise coming from behind, her heart sank gradually.
The senior brother with red eyes grimaced and said, "Things didn't go well. We've been surrounded."
"Now what do we do?"
Li Pan stared ahead without blinking, then after a while, he raised his hand and made a gesture. "Follow closely and be careful."
"Follow Su Rui slowly. This path is too narrow and difficult to navigate. Let's go a little further ahead and find a wider area to slip away."
Tracking someone is not an easy task, especially when the person being tracked is Su Rui .
How can they play the game of tracking with more than ten people watching? Even Li Pan clenched his lips tightly, feeling uncertain.
"Pay attention, if those people in front show any slight changes, run immediately."
Chu Tongzheng , Xie Xingzhi , and the others responded in a low voice, but only Qiao Wan didn't move.
Hugging the ground and hiding behind this low wall, her fingers gripping the bricks, Qiao Wan faintly felt that there must be another way.
There is a safer way.
What way?
Her gaze casually fell on the bracelet on Fang Lingqing's wrist, and suddenly, a thought came to Qiao Wan. Without thinking, she blurted out, "Bracelet."
"Bracelet!!"
Li Pan was taken aback, then suddenly understood!
While the others were still confused, Qiao Wan quickly lowered her head and used the bracelet to contact the other ten or so teams!
With her mouth moving rapidly, she calmly explained the situation here.
"Attention, this is Team 8. I am Qiao Wan. We just landed and encountered Su Rui."
"Position is at the southwest, three o'clock direction."
This method of locating was provided by Qiao Wan before they set off. Ma Huaizhen and the others found it fascinating and convenient, so they continued to use it in the cultivation alliance.
"Number of people?" Qiao Wan raised her eyes. "About fifteen people."
Chu Tongzheng widened her eyes in astonishment. "What does she want to do?"
The red-eyed martial brother blinked for a moment, and then suddenly understood. He couldn't help but show a happy expression, "Yes, how did I not think of that?!"
"We don't have enough people to handle this on our own! But if we can contact others to help us keep an eye on things, then it will be enough."
Following Su Rui, moving forward slowly, is not an easy task. This warrior from the demon realm has incredibly sharp senses. But in every direction, there are hidden allies. Each direction has their eyes watching.
This is what Qiao Wan wants to do.
Spreading the information, passing it from one to ten, from ten to a hundred, after finishing the communication, Qiao Wan closed her eyes for a moment. It was dark in front of her, countless unseen elder martial sisters and younger martial sisters hiding in the shadows. But in this darkness, it seemed like one eye after another lit up. These eyes overlapped with each other and formed a net, covering Su Rui and the others tightly within.
Qiao Wan waited quietly for a while, and the bracelet that was originally used to provide information to the Mathematics Department disciples started to light up gradually, accompanied by the voices of the elder martial sisters.
"Now the target has started to move."
"Attention, someone has looked up and glanced to the east."
"Three yards southeast, someone is turning."
And these pieces of information were faithfully transmitted to the enormous Souvenir Image in the Northern Territory.
The screen was filled with massive streams of data, rapidly flashing like a flurry of messages on the Souvenir Image in the Northern Territory.
Information.
Ma Huaizhen looked at the massive screen in astonishment and suddenly recalled what Qiao Wan had said to them before.
This is the importance of information.
In their world, the outcome of war often depends not on firepower, but on the importance of information.
The soft green glow appeared like a sprouting tree, quickly taking root and branching out in all directions. The branches and leaves grew lush, with each leaf representing a piece of information.
This is the sharing and exchange of information.
The people who stayed behind in the Northern Icefield were all astonished by this scene.
Ma Huaizhen, who had never really understood the concept of the "internet" before, now...
The man thought silently. He may have grasped a small hint of understanding.
Fang Lingqing, Xiao Boyang, and Xie Xingzhi lowered their heads in disbelief, feeling their bracelets vibrating ever so slightly.
In this vast network, even the slightest change in Su Rui's expression will be quickly transmitted through a nerve as a message.
Under the coverage of the "internet," even the demon realm's warrior, Su Rui, cannot escape notice.
Qi Feidao stared blankly at the massive stream of information that covered the entire sky.
This... is the power of numbers.
Whether it was those inside or outside the demon realm, all the cultivators couldn't help but rejoice, but then fell silent.
They didn't want to see these talented individuals sacrifice themselves. They only wished for them to come back alive.
"Please come back alive," Gongsun Bingzi sighed softly.
Under the gaze of everyone, Qiao Wan opened her eyes again and smiled. "Let's go."
Su Rui stopped in his tracks, hearing his subordinate's voice in his ear.
"General, it seems like we're being followed."
"Hmm, how many? Did you find out?"
The other person seemed hesitant. "We can't figure it out. It seems like they're skilled."
"It looks like... " hesitating for a moment, "there are hundreds of people following us."
Another demon soldier exclaimed, "Hundreds of people, how is that possible?"
Su Rui furrowed his brow and made a decisive command, "Continue moving forward."
The man raised his eyes, scanning the surroundings. His gaze seemed to be looking nowhere in particular. "The longer this goes on, the sooner these people will reveal themselves."
With the help of their elder martial sister, Qiao Wan and her friends carefully avoided the watchful eyes of Su Rui and his group of evil soldiers, slowly moving forward while using the ruins as cover.
However, the terrain in this place was strange. As they walked, it seemed to be getting narrower. Xiao Boyang held his breath silently, sweating nervously.
Ma Huaizhen and the others, who had been paying close attention to the surroundings, also began to feel anxious.
Watching the man leading the soldiers go deeper and deeper, Qiao Wan's heart pounded rapidly. She clenched her fist tightly.
Just as Su Rui had warned, the longer they stayed, the more likely they were to make mistakes and reveal themselves.
Furthermore, as time passed, there were fewer and fewer elder martial sisters who could help them.
"Something's not right..." Slowly, the voice of the elder martial sister on the other end of the bracelet sounded a bit anxious.
"It seems like something's off."
"I have a feeling that we're being watched too."
As soon as these words were spoken, Qiao Wan and her friends froze in their tracks!
"We are being followed?!" Without thinking about the meaning of this sentence, Qiao Wan instinctively looked at Li Pan .
Li Pan , the most experienced, suddenly stopped the car, his face quickly turning serious. He raised his hand sharply, signaling them to stop following.
"Let's retreat."
"Hurry, don't follow!" Li Pan's face grew darker with every word. He almost growled, "Something isn't right."
"Retreat!"
Following Li Pan's command, Qiao Wan and Fang Lingqing momentarily panicked, then immediately followed Li Pan as they slowly moved backwards.
One step, two steps, three steps.
With every step back, they became more nervous, their mouths dry.
As they continued retreating, a man nearby seemed to sense something. Suddenly, he turned his head, his gaze sharply piercing in their direction!
Qiao Wan's heart leaped to its highest point, and at the same time, she heard Li Pan's stern shout in her ear.
"Hurry! Retreat quickly!"
In that same instant, Su Rui's eyes locked with hers!
They had been discovered!
In an instant, Su Rui, holding a long spear, fiercely swept through with a powerful force, causing the nearby dirt wall to explode into pieces with a loud bang!
Without hesitation, Qiao Wan turned around and ran!
The senior brother with red eyes anxiously gave her a push, along with Fang Lingqing, Xiao Boyang, Xie Xingzhi, Chu Tongzheng, Li Pan, and others, they cooperatively protected Qiao Wan as she retreated!
She remembered her mission! While others could be caught, she couldn't be caught!!
Almost at the same moment she turned around to run, Qiao Wan unexpectedly collided with something!
Raising her eyes, she saw a figure dressed in pure white, like a plum blossom!
A refreshing sandalwood scent filled the air.
The boy gently embraced her, appearing gentle but actually restraining her movements. His bright green eyes were like sparkling water, "Xin Yi, you've come."
Xiao Boyang exclaimed in surprise, "Cen Qingyou?! How is it you?!"
"Why is it me?" the young man smiled, "Because ever since you landed, I have been following you, my dear Xiao Lang."
Oh my goodness!
In a flash, Ma Huaizhen clenched his teeth!
It's like the praying mantis hunting the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind!
With a swift slap on the wheelchair, the other cultivators in the far northern realm instinctively cursed under their breaths.
This cunning boy, Cen Qingyou, has been hiding for so long and yet, he played a game of cat and mouse in front of hundreds of people!
