Cultivating Through The Game-Chapter 741 - 386: The Final Moment_3
Zhang Jingyang also retreated, the sacred armor on his body emitted divine light, and the mysterious evil entities seemed unable to see him, ignoring his presence, allowing him to move freely through the chaotic battlefield.
"What’s going on?" Zhang Jingyang asked Su Peng, who had just gotten up.
Su Peng spat, sneered, and said, "Hehe~ I bought time for them, but they wasted my time arguing over who should own the Core of Space-Time!" 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎
Su Peng was gritting his teeth as he said the last sentence; considering his temper, it was already a huge tolerance for him not to start beating people up.
Lu Yu stood in front of the space vortex, striking away the approaching strange entities; he didn’t want those ghostly things reaching Earth.
He had heard before that this space vortex led to Earth, and he was a bit tempted—should he return to Earth through here?
But he wasn’t sure if he could go back.
His current situation was different from others; others could return to Earth, but he might not be able to.
Su Peng glanced at the chaotic battlefield, walked toward Lu Yu, looked at the space vortex behind him, and said, "Until the last moment, don’t choose to leave through here."
"We all have life sources to protect us; we won’t die. If you leave through here, I’m not sure if you can make it to Earth alive."
Lu Yu, upon hearing this, felt his heart move; the life source was the Seed of Demons, which had resurrected him last time when he entered the Divine Martial World with his physical body from Earth.
Later, he also tried finding another one but couldn’t.
These things are extremely rare, and places capable of producing Seeds of Demons aren’t easy to locate.
Lu Yu nodded and said, "I understand."
Even though he didn’t have a life source to protect him, Lu Yu was still 70% confident that he could survive if he crossed over from here.
On one hand, he now had the physique of the Void Ancient Dragon and had some resistance to spatial forces; on the other hand, his Soul Power was very close to the Divided Soul Realm, meaning he could survive in a spiritual form even if his body perished.
He had made up his mind; unless it was the worst-case scenario, he wouldn’t leave from here.
"Damn it, anyone who wants it can have it; I’m not fighting with you guys anymore!" Liu Yuan shouted, then tossed the Core of Space-Time away and rushed into the space vortex.
He couldn’t bear it any longer, having to fend off the assaults of mysterious evil entities while guarding against others.
Everyone was closely watching the Core of Space-Time flying in the air, about to scramble for it, when a jet-black liquid came crashing down from the sky, overwhelming everything.
Lu Yu’s expression changed, and he hurriedly pushed Su Peng and Zhang Jingyang into the portal, shouting, "Get out of here!"
Though Su Peng and Zhang Jingyang were puzzled, seeing the urgency on Lu Yu’s face, they understood that the black liquid was terrifying and entered the portal without resistance.
Although leaving without obtaining the Core of Space-Time felt unsatisfying, it was better than losing their lives.
Chu Ze tried to reclaim the Core of Space-Time from the Unliving’s black oil, but as soon as he rushed in, he regretted it; the black liquid was entirely impervious to damage, whether from physical or Spiritual Power attacks.
Ultimately, he had to use his life-saving skills to escape from the black oil in a sorry state, dashing into the portal without looking back.
Others, seeing this, hesitated for a moment before also rushing into the portal.
They also realized that these liquids couldn’t be dealt with using conventional methods.
Seeing the approaching black oil, Lu Yu took out the White Jade Skull from his backpack and placed it in front of the space vortex; the black oil bypassed the space vortex, flooding the surroundings.
Lu Yu watched as the world around him was submerged, and after glancing at the space vortex behind him, he hesitated for a moment and then summoned the Boundless Star, using its power to close the portal.
He didn’t want these things reaching Earth.
The space vortex closed and disappeared from Lu Yu’s sight, and he sighed in relief, but his heart grew heavy—now his only way out was to wait for the Heavenly Machine Pavilion to rescue them.
As Lu Yu picked up the White Jade Skull, preparing to leave, the ground beneath him suddenly crumbled, and he, along with the ground, began to sink.
"What’s going on?"
Lu Yu was startled by the sudden change, and before he could grasp what was happening, he saw a light appear ahead.
He was slightly stunned but soon reacted, with joy appearing on his face.
As he plummeted, Lu Yu controlled gravity to seize the Core of Space-Time. With the Core of Space-Time in hand, he felt much more at ease.
In the worst-case scenario, he still had a chance to open a space portal and leave this place.
