The passage the Origin Immortal Lord had created using his divine abilities was rather twisted and winding, and there were even some places where only one person could pass at a time. But these were not major problems for martial artists.
As Wang Chong climbed and crawled, he had lights to lead his way. Song Yuanyi had ordered martial artists to leave luminous pearls at set intervals precisely to guide Wang Chong.
”Master!”
After traveling some several thousand meters, Wang Chong managed to rejoin the Demonic Emperor Old Man, Song Yuanyi, and the others.
”It's fine as long as you're back! We were just waiting for you!”
The Demonic Emperor Old Man and Wushang Village Chief breathed a sigh of relief, their expressions relaxing.
Song Yuanyi suddenly spoke up. ”It's about time. The shaking is intensifying and this passage could collapse at any time. Let's hurry.”
Wang Chong nodded, and the group began to rapidly advance.
Crsssh! Crush! Tremors emanating from deep within the earth occasionally shook the walls of the passage. Everyone knew that True Lord Yellow Dragon was struggling with all his might.
Their hearts nervous, they hastened their advance. As they traveled farther and farther, the passage began to widen and more branches began to appear, but all the earth shuddered more and more intensely.
”Run!”
Wang Chong was holding the rear. Suddenly, he thrust his hands at the sides of the passage, sending powerful streams of energy into the earth.
Wang Chong's Stellar Energy was able to stabilize his shaky surroundings.
Boomboomboom!
At almost the same time, Song Yuanyi, the Black Yin Ancestor, and the others did the same. The weakening of the tremors calmed everyone down and allowed them to move even faster.
As they advanced, the earth suddenly swayed and an incredibly brash and arrogant voice resounded through the underground world. ”Haha, Origin Immortal Lord, take this attack!”
At the same time, an immense energy began to strengthen, rapidly expanding in their senses.
”Not good!”
Everyone instantly paled. They had to start from twenty thousand meters beneath the surface, and though the Origin Immortal Lord had done his best to open a path for them, this path was extremely unstable and incapable of enduring a blow from True Lord Yellow Dragon.
”Everyone, hurry!” Wang Chong bellowed, and cries of alarm came out of the darkness as everyone began to frenziedly advance.
Even though Wang Chong and the others had tried to stabilize the passage, in this brief moment of time, the intensity of the shaking had rapidly multiplied.
Before the group could run very far, boom! A terrifying energy slammed into the earth like an erupting volcano.
Crack! There was a deafening boom, and though the group couldn't see anything, they could determine from the echoes that the abyss that the group had been in was finally beginning to collapse.
Rumble!
At this moment, another boom came from above, swiftly followed by panicked cries.
”Oh no!”
”It's collapsed up ahead!”
”Everyone, run!”
As martial artists shouted in panic, Wang Chong borrowed the light of the luminous pearls held in the hands of various martial arts and observed that a massive fissure overhead had divided the group into two. Both the upper and lower parts of the passage were beginning to cave in.
”Everyone, be careful!
”Pay attention to the rocks overhead and get over quickly!”
Song Yuanyi's voice rang out over the panicked cries, calming the crowd.
Boom! An imposing stream of Stellar Energy blasted through the air, opening a passage for the martial artists to flee through.
”Run!”
The martial artists were excited by this passage and hastily began to flee through the new crack.
Everything around them was swaying and could collapse at any time. Song Yuanyi himself was just about to leave when he heard panicked shouts coming from below.
”Alliance Lord, save me!”
”We're about to fall!”
Those voices were brimming with the fear of death.
”Not good!”
Song Yuanyi grimaced, instantly recognizing the voices of several Righteous Alliance disciples.
