Chapter 923: Chapter 588: Taoist Skill Weakened, Crushed

The Great Han clearly intended to succeed with a single strike, as he wielded his long saber magical treasure, unleashing a tremendous force, swiftly slashing towards the people ahead.

"Not good!"

The person who had earlier mocked the Great Han turned pale, but fortunately, he was somewhat prepared and quickly summoned a magical treasure to shield his back.

Boom!

The collision of two magical treasures erupted into a violent explosion, scattering grass debris and countless rocks in all directions.

A huge pit appeared on the prairie, separating the two opposing sides.

"Hahaha, Scarface Liu, thanks for your help. We’re leaving now!"

The person ahead laughed heartily, retrieved his magical treasure, and seized the opportunity. Without saving mana anymore, he suddenly accelerated his movement technique, increasing his speed by a notch.

The other companions immediately understood, and they all increased their speed in unison.

They knew that this was an excellent chance to shake off those pursuing behind them.

Being stingy with mana any longer could lead to unending pursuit.

"Damn it!"

Scarface Liu didn’t expect that his strike would not only fail but inadvertently help the enemy, making him so furious that he almost exploded with rage.

The peculiar gazes from his companions around him only added fuel to his anger.

In an instant, he thought of nothing else. The magic power Golden Core within him suddenly surged, and with a powerful burst of mana, he soared into the sky, transforming into a stream of light, rapidly pursuing the people ahead.

He no longer conserved mana, enduring the tenfold consumption of flight, determined to catch up and capture the people ahead to erase the shame.

"Brother Liu!"

This sudden action shocked his companions beside him.

Ever since they entered this strange secret realm, they had faced constant danger, nearly exhausting their supply of elixirs and Spirit Stones.

If it weren’t for that, they wouldn’t have resorted to such plundering actions.

This was also why they were reluctant to fly.

In this eerie secret realm, flying consumed too much mana.

Despite their Golden Core Realm strength, they found that flying for merely one or two minutes depleted their mana.

Now, their elixirs and Spirit Stones were nearly gone.

If they exhausted their mana further, they would truly face a desperate situation.

So when they saw Scarface Liu suddenly burst forth, their surprise was mixed with hesitation, and they didn’t immediately follow.

And it was this hesitation that placed Scarface Liu in an inescapable predicament.

The people ahead were initially startled when they saw Scarface Liu transforming into a stream of light and catching up.

But then they noticed that Scarface Liu’s companions weren’t following.

The man who had earlier taunted Scarface Liu was suddenly overjoyed, a hint of cruelty flashing across his face.

"Scarface Liu, you brought this upon yourself, can’t blame us!"

Before his words finished, he too unleashed his aura, and his long sword transformed into countless Sword Light, slashing towards Scarface Liu.

His companions, in perfect understanding, also erupted with their Golden Core powers, collectively unleashing a final move towards Scarface Liu.

"How dare you!"

Just as Scarface Liu caught up, he was immediately surrounded by the many Sword Light and Sword Qi phenomena, overwhelmed by shock and anger.

His anger, of course, stemmed from his companions not following.

The shock was because, though his strength was superior to the people ahead, facing their simultaneous explosive attack was difficult to withstand.

At this life-and-death moment, Scarface Liu no longer held anything back.

With his Heart and Spirit activated, his mana furiously surged out, and he summoned a shield, creating layers of light barriers in front of him.

Rumble!

Although the shield summoned by Scarface Liu was extraordinary, being a High Grade Treasure level magical treasure, his strongest trump card—

facing the full-force strike of several slightly weaker strong opponents—was still somewhat inadequate.

The layers of light barriers created by the shield, like glass, were effortlessly shattered.

Then, the remaining Sword Light and Sword Qi struck the shield’s core.

Under the violent attack, even a High Grade Treasure struggled to bear it, sustaining for less than two breaths before its spirit light dimmed.

Emitting the sound of shattering, it instantly shrank, returning to Scarface Liu’s body.

Immediately, the remaining Sword Light and Sword Qi engulfed Scarface Liu.

"Ah!"

Scarface Liu let out a series of anguished cries, and after the storm subsided—

he lay on the ground, covered in horrific wounds, his life or death uncertain.

"Let’s go!"

The man, seeing this, didn’t bother to check on Scarface Liu’s condition. Calling out, he continued fleeing forward.

Having been on the run, their energy expenditure was already considerable. This outburst consumed even more of their mana, making it unwise to linger here.

Moreover, a heavily wounded Scarface Liu was more beneficial than a dead one.

The latter would distract those behind, leaving them too preoccupied to pursue.

Indeed, seeing Scarface Liu lying on the ground with faint breathing, the remaining people behind exchanged looks.

For a moment, they didn’t know whether to continue the chase or rescue Scarface Liu first.

And in this hesitation, the people ahead managed to escape a great distance, and relying on movement techniques to catch up again was unlikely.

As for transforming into a stream of light, the enormous consumption was evident. With Scarface Liu’s failure as a warning before them, nobody was eager to be the first to try.

Watching the people ahead get farther and farther, finally, one person sighed: "Let’s wake Brother Liu and plan further."

They decided not to pursue further.

"These two groups of people, the ones ahead are very united and harmonious, while those behind are like scattered sand with their own agendas."

Lu Qing, who had been observing the battle from the front, concluded.
