Chapter 710 - Absolute Darkness
Chapter 710: Chapter 710 Absolute Darkness
“I don’t know, but we are in danger no matter where we go,” Nangong Jiayin said, sighing. Her gaze was now filled with resentment when she looked at Zhou Xuanji.
Since she encountered Zhou Xuanji, they had been to two missions in total, and the difficulty of the missions was beyond their level. And more importantly, they were hunted twice.
All the enemies were invincible, which made her helpless and sad.
Zhou Xuanji understood her thoughts from her eyes. He had nothing to justify himself.
He too was wondering whether he was possessed by some unlucky star or if fate was playing against him from the start!?
In any case, their top priority was to think of a way to escape.
If he died, there was no point in investing these things.
He and Nangong Jiayin discussed and decided to go in another direction.
They couldn’t hide here. They must move away from here quickly.
“Leave him here.”
Zhou Xuanji, looking at Xie Huoli, said in a heavy voice, “It might be considered as leaving him a way to live.”
Nangong Jiayin nodded. She had long wanted to abandon Xie Huoli, but Zhou Xuanji hadn’t spoken and she was too embarrassed to say this.
Xie Huoli’s eyes widened in shock as he said, “This place is deserted. Can you leave me in another place?”
Zhou Xuanji and Nangon Jiayin, on the other hand, directly tore through space and disappeared into space and time turbulence, leaving Xie Huoli in chaos.
“Those two SOBs…”
Xie Huoli clenched his fists. His face turned gloomy.
…
Zhou Xuanji and Nangong Jiayin shuttled through the darkness. The light continued to grow weaker and weaker. Even their perception abilities were also weakening.
“What’s going on?” Zhou Xuanji asked, furrowing his brow. He always felt that they were flying in the wrong direction.
Nangong Jiayin leaned closer to him. Their arms were pressed against each other. He subconsciously withdrew his but then he heard Nangong Jiayin, “There may be an absolute dark zone in the front. Even our senses and spiritual thoughts will be blocked. It’s easy to lose our way. You and I should stick close to each other now.”
“Don’t worry, you are too young. You are not to my tastes.”
Zhou Xuanji raised his brow. He was provoked.
However, now was not the time to quibble with her. They could not separate from each other; it would be too dangerous for both of them.
Zhou Xuanji needed Nangong Jiayin’s strength and experience.
Alone, he was more likely to be lost in the endless universe.
The two continued forward.
After a while, Zhou Xuanji put his arms on her shoulders. Even so, he felt his hands gradually losing sensation.
“How is this possible? Have you been here to this place?” Zhou Xuanji asked in a low voice. It was the first time he had come to a place like this. He was feeling confused and insecure.
He had no idea what was before him and what was hiding around him.
His senses were blocked. This feeling was extremely new and terrifying to him.
He could see nothing in this absolute darkness. Even Nangong Jiayin next to him was disappearing.
“I am not sure. It seems that we are more or less in danger,” replied Nangong Jiayin, sighing. Her tone was a lot softer.
In this desperate situation, her will also began to fade.
Zhou Xuanji wanted to continue speaking but he suddenly found that his throat seemed to be blocked. He was unable to speak.
At this moment, endless sleepiness poured into his mind, making his eyelids extremely heavy.
Finally.
He silently sighed in his heart.
His consciousness plunged completely into chaos
…
God knows after how long…
Zhou Xuanji felt a warm wind blowing on his face. He slowly opened his eyes as ten suns entered his eyes, hanging high up in the red sky.
Strands of flame drifted past his eyes, one after another.
He sat up with difficulty and shook his head. He suddenly caught a glimpse of Nangong Jiayin lying next to her. Her clothes were disheveled and scattered. She was in an extremely miserable state.
He looked down at his own body and realized that he too was injured.
He took out two Holy Light Redemption Swords. He pierce one into his thigh and the other into Nangong Jiayin’s abdomen.
While healing, he kept observing the surroundings.
They were lying in a desert with rising and falling sand dunes. Apart from a few dead trees, there were no other signs of life.
“Where are we…”
Zhou Xuanji frowned, staring at the ten suns above.
He always felt that this picture was vaguely familiar.
“Hmm…” a tender groan rang from next to him as Nangong Jiayin woke up.
She didn’t panic. She was rather calm as she noticed that her clothes were a little tattered; her tender skin was laid bare. She couldn’t help but glare at Zhou Xuanji before she took out another robe and wrapped it around herself.
“I have no interest in your old body,” stated Zhou Xuanji in a hoarse voice.
He still remembered what Nangong Jiayin had said before they fell into a coma.
Nangong Jiayin was immediately infuriated when she heard this. Her throat was similarly dry. She replied in a hoarse voice, “Hmph, if I am willing stoop to marry you, won’t you be moved?”
Zhou Xuanji stared at her with a strange look in his eyes and said, “You clearly don’t have an idea about my current identity, do you?”
That look seemed to be asking, are you worthy to marry me?
After having walked the edges of life and death in the absolute darkness zone, the relationship between the two of them had obviously grown closer. They wouldn’t be quarreling like this before.
Nangong Jiayin looked at him bitterly. She then turned her gaze at the Holy Light Redemption Sword piercing her abdomen.
“How many swords have you copied using my Golden Treasure Basket?” she let out a cold snort and asked.
She grew angry when she thought of this.
Zhou Xuanji had consumed a lot of her luck. She even suspected that she had become so unlucky lately because of that.
When she brought up this matter, Zhou Xuanji suddenly felt guilty and immediately shut up.
The two began to concentrate on recovering their wounds while putting their guard up against their surroundings to avoid being attacked by an enemy,
After half an hour…
Zhou Xuanji opened his eyes and asked, “Do you know where we are?”
His original voice was restored to original condition and his complexion had become a lot better.
“I’m not sure. Let’s look around,” Nangong Jiayin shook her head and replied.
Zhou Xuanji agreed with her suggestion. The two immediately pulled the swords out and stood up.
They both remained together as they moved forward.
They didn’t encounter any creatures along the way.
After walking for seven consecutive days, they still hadn’t reached the end.
“Something’s wrong, it’s not a closed world is it?” Nangong Jiayin muttered to herself, frowning. She looked a little nervous.
Zhou Xuanji asked, “What do you mean?”
She replied, “It means that we may be trapped here forever, me and you alone. We can’t even cultivate here. Didn’t you realize that there are no spiritual Qi and Great Dao principles here?”
Zhou Xuanji’s brow furrowed upon hearing this.
He didn’t want to stay here. All his friends and families were in the Kunlun Origin Court. He must go back.
Thinking of this, he took out the Almighty Divine Snake Sword of Controlling Daos and threw it toward the sky.
The Almighty Divine Snake Sword of Controlling Daos flew to a certain height before it stopped and fell down weightlessly.
Zhou Xunaji’s frown became even tighter. He didn’t believe in hearsay and flew up in the air himself.
When he flew to a height of 90,000 feet, the dao energy in his body disappeared out of thin air as his body plummeted uncontrollably.
“What’s going on…”
Zhou Xuanji’s eyes widened in shock. He was unable to comprehend this scene.
He suddenly stared at the ten suns and finally realized why he was finding it familiar.
The sun of the solar system was the same as these suns. It had a Three-Legged Golden Crow inside.
But there were no three-legged golden crows in these ten suns. Rather, there were ten giant, white, and fat babies curled up inside.
