Chapter 242: Escape from Bondage
Chapter 242: Escape from Bondage
As a result, she was tricked into the backyard by a young monk at the Maitreya Temple, who said that she had a connection with the Buddha and was summoned by the Buddha.
These experiences made her realize that the world is not as beautiful as the legends say, and the so-called "paradise on earth" is just an illusion. The ordinary happiness that she once disdained and the constraints that she hated are the most precious treasures in the world.
And she lost almost all of it.
The Zhen Zhuo Ancient Buddha said: "People often say 'a man is angry for a beauty and points his sword to the sky', and 'the land of beauties is the tomb of heroes'. Young man, I hope you will be so lucky next time and take the person away!"
Xia Zhongnan threw Yuan Bingyu into the air, and an auspicious magic cloud appeared at the right time, lightly caught her and brought her to his side. Then, he saluted the ancient gods Yutian and Zhenzhuo in the air, and whispered: "Look forward to meeting you again!" In front of everyone's eyes, he took Yuan Bingyu and flew to the beautiful place - Huancai City.
Xia Zhongnan and Yuan Bingyu were flying away from the border of Mani City, and suddenly stopped above another Mani Temple. Yuan Bingyu had been silent before, but now she asked timidly: "Why stop? I don't want to stay in Mani City anymore." Xia Zhongnan turned around and stared into the depths of the city, "If you still follow me, I will start killing here!"
Yuan Bingyu asked in confusion: "Someone is following us?" Xia Zhongnan replied: "Apart from those two ancient gods, who else could it be? They are really unwilling to give up, following us secretly, intending to wait until we leave Mani City before taking action. Their wishful thinking is wrong!"
Yuan Bingyu retorted: "Didn't the two ancient gods promise to let us go? Can they break their promise? Don't they care about their reputation?" Xia Zhongnan responded: "Letting us go would be a real disgrace. If they attack after we leave the city, they will only be praised for their wisdom. They have both saved Mani City and achieved their goal."
Yuan Bingyu nodded, not quite understanding. The experience of this day completely overturned her understanding of this mysterious world. From the lowest cultivation child to the high and mighty ancient god, they all seemed to be unscrupulous. She was full of doubts in her heart. Is this really the truth of the cultivation world? If everyone is like this, how terrible this world would be!
Half an hour later, Xia Zhongnan suddenly accelerated and rushed towards Huancai City with Yuan Bingyu. Yuan Bingyu wanted to ask about the current situation, but seeing that he was rushing as fast as he could, she finally held back and just kept looking back in confusion.
Soon, she screamed in fear. Because she saw two figures were indeed chasing them. With Yuan Bingyu, Xia Zhongnan's speed was obviously much slower than the pursuers. Soon, she could clearly recognize the two faces, which were the ancient gods Yutian and Zhenzhuo. Xia Zhongnan had no choice. When the traces of the two ancient gods were discovered, they gradually retreated. It was not until the two ancient gods retreated to the secret realm for cultivation that Xia Zhongnan suddenly started and sprinted towards Huancai City with Yuan Bingyu. However, the two ancient gods caught up immediately.
At this moment, the only way to survive is to compete in speed. Although he barely recovered some strength with the help of the top-grade spirit stone, he was not at his peak state. In addition, with the drag of Yuan Bingyu, he was much slower than the two ancient gods who were chasing at full speed. He could only grit his teeth and persevere. Seeing the ancient gods getting closer and closer, Yuan Bingyu pleaded: "Brother Xia, please let me go. You can't escape them with me. It is more important for you to escape alone than to die together."
During this day, although she witnessed many dark sides of human nature, the man she met for the first time revealed to her that in addition to sin, there is something completely different in the world of cultivation.
Although she didn't want to die, she also didn't want Xia Zhongnan to be in danger because of her involvement.
However, Xia Zhongnan turned a deaf ear to her concerns and used all his strength to perform the secret teleportation technique in a desperate attempt to escape.
From the Special Operations Team to the Thirteenth Legion, years of military experience have forged his indestructible will, and he will never give up until the very last moment.
Even when facing life and death, he will fight hard.
The distance between the two sides was shortened again, and a hot copper staff appeared in the hand of Yutian Ancient Buddha and shot towards Xia Zhongnan.
At the same time, a Vajra Zen staff appeared in the hand of the Zhenzhuo Ancient Buddha, waiting for the opportunity to deliver a fatal blow.
Xia Zhongnan had already noticed the movements of the two. When the red copper staff attacked, he used the power from other worlds to protect himself and Yuan Bingyu, and then drew out the Sky-breaking Halberd and held it across his back to block.
There was only a loud "bang" sound, and the red copper staff hit the Sky-breaking Halberd. The powerful backlash force forced the red copper staff to retreat. Xia Zhongnan's body also suffered a huge impact, and his internal organs were like surging rivers and seas. If he had not been tempered by the essence of the Five Elements, he would have been seriously injured at this moment.
Although the impact hurt Xia Zhongnan, it also accelerated their escape speed. The distance between them and the two ancient Buddhas did not shorten, but instead widened slightly.
Zhen Zhuo Ancient Buddha snorted coldly: "I want to see how many times you can withstand such attacks!"
Before he finished speaking, he accelerated over a short distance and threw the Vajra Staff in his hand towards Xia Zhongnan.
Xia Zhongnan endured the pain and responded in the same way. The Vajra Zen Staff collided violently with the Sky-breaking Halberd again.
This time, Xia Zhongnan's old injury was compounded by new pain, and he finally couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood, but the impact made them escape even faster.
Later, Yutian Ancient Buddha, who had put away the red copper staff, approached again, found the right distance, and threw the blazing staff again...
The two ancient Buddhas refused to believe in evil and launched a fierce attack on Xia Zhongnan one after another.
In their opinion, Xia Zhongnan, who only took beatings and did not fight back, was the easiest to deal with. Otherwise, if they forced him to fight back, with the power of the move he had previously demonstrated, they themselves would also be at risk of injury.
If this continues, there will always be a time when Xia Zhongnan is unable to support himself, and then they will be able to easily achieve their goal.
After enduring the continuous impacts, even Xia Zhongnan, who had been reshaped by the power of the five elements, found it difficult to withstand it at this moment. Every collision made him spit out large mouthfuls of blood.
However, Xia Zhongnan gritted his teeth and persevered.
He usually pays attention to wisdom and avoids disasters, but his experience in the special forces has imprinted a certain tenacity in his bones and blood. When wisdom is useless, his true nature is revealed...
Beside him, the frosty Yuan Bingyu had already burst into tears when she saw his appearance, and begged Chiyang Xia Zhongnan to leave her alone and escape from this dreamlike danger.
What was not noticed was that even though Xia Zhongnan was in severe pain, his eyes shone with determination and a glimmer of hope.
Sure enough, after passing through the long road of illusion, Xia Zhongnan suddenly shouted: "Brother Zhao, activate the city protection magic array immediately!"
In front of him, the mysterious Lanxiu City came into view. Xia Zhongnan burned his last bit of magic power and rushed into the city.
Immediately afterwards, a hazy mist quietly enveloped the entire Lanxiu City.
Two ancient Buddhas followed closely behind, and facing the activated magic array, their faces turned ashen, like angry wild boars.
