Chapter 13498 Why should I run away?
They looked at the shriveled corpse on the ground, and everyone's expressions became unsightly. Some were shocked, some were angry, and some were filled with deep fear.
"What...what's going on?" one of them asked in a trembling voice, his eyes scanning around, trying to find traces and clues of the battle.
"The prey... turned into a hunter..." Another person murmured to himself, his voice full of disbelief and shock. In this world where the strong are respected, they have long been accustomed to playing the role of hunters.
But I never thought that one day I would become someone else's prey.
The people around him fell silent. They stared at the corpse, their hearts filled with complicated emotions.
This sudden change made them deeply realize the cruelty and impermanence of this world. Ling Xiao and Liezu had disappeared into the vast void, leaving behind the land that had been baptized by the battle, and those who were still there.
People in shock and fear.
Some people chose to leave. They came here just to try their luck. It would be great if they could fish in troubled waters and get treasures by luck, but now they may lose their lives here, so they naturally don't want to stay here any longer.
About an hour passed, and the atmosphere at the scene became heavier and heavier. The air seemed to freeze, leaving only the whisper of the wind and the faint roar of beasts in the distance, adding a bit of loneliness and danger to this desolate place.
There were some scattered footprints and discarded equipment scattered around, showing the panic and escape of the crowd before. At this moment, there was only one old man left on the scene. He stood alone on the spot, like a weathered stone monument, standing erect.
The old man's figure was slightly stooped, but his eyes still shone with unyielding light, as if he had some firm belief supporting him.
His clothes were slightly worn, but every stitch and thread showed the precipitation and tenacity of the years. He seemed unwilling to leave just like that, as if there were reasons or expectations that he must stick to in this crisis-ridden place.
Perhaps relying on his own strength, the old man did not give up due to the harsh environment around him. His face was full of traces of time, but his calmness and confidence were hard to ignore.
He even sat down cross-legged, with his legs slightly bent, his hands gently resting on his knees, and his eyes closed in concentration, as if he was practicing and feeling the pulse of the world.
"Haha, you are really patient, old man. Are you really not afraid of death?" At this time, an abrupt voice sounded, with a bit of joking and confusion.
Ling Xiao suddenly appeared. He was dressed in brocade clothes, walking briskly and with a smile on his face. He walked towards the old man step by step. Each step seemed to be stepping on ripples in the air, making him look both mysterious and powerful.
The old man suddenly opened his eyes and stared at Ling Xiao. He didn't say a word, but just blasted out with a palm.
boom!
The air seemed to be torn apart at this moment, and a majestic wave of spiritual power suddenly erupted, instantly lifting up the surrounding dust and gravel, forming a chaotic storm.
Under this blow, Ling Xiao's body suddenly exploded like fragile porcelain, turning into bits and pieces of debris scattered in the air, shining with a strange light, as if even the dust in the air was given life.
"Clone?"
The old man frowned, and a trace of surprise and doubt flashed in his deep eyes. He did not expect that with his full blow, the opponent could be defeated so easily, leaving only an illusory afterimage.
Just as the old man was thinking, a clearer figure quietly appeared behind him, it was Ling Xiao, with a playful smile on his lips, as if everything just now was just an insignificant game.
"I'm just telling you a few words, why are you in such a hurry..." Ling Xiao's words contained a bit of ridicule, and he didn't seem to take the old man's attack to heart. However, before he finished speaking, the old man's
The figure flashed like a ghost again, and another palm shot towards Lingxiao with overwhelming momentum.
Ling Xiao's body exploded to pieces again, turning into spots of light all over the sky, but this time, the old man's eyes were a little more certain and alert.
Because he clearly sensed that this was still a clone, not Ling Xiao's body. There was a subtle and tense atmosphere in the air, as if an invisible contest was quietly going on.
"Boy, being sneaky is not a good thing. Give me the treasure and you can arrive at the Star Reaching Tower safely. Otherwise, you won't be able to escape today, but you won't be able to escape tomorrow."
The old man snorted coldly, with undoubted majesty in his voice. His eyes seemed to be able to see through all illusions, looking directly at every corner where Ling Xiao might hide.
"escape?"
Ling Xiao's voice was filled with a hint of joking, and he appeared above the old man's head again out of thin air, as if space was just a layer of gauze for him, moving through it at will.
He stood in the void, his clothes fluttering, and his eyes revealed a kind of transcendent indifference, "Why should I run away? If I really want to run away, no one of you can find it. I just want to see who is so stubborn.
You must kill me."
Hearing this, the old man's face changed slightly, and a flash of anger flashed in his eyes. He concentrated his skills again, quickly formed seals with his hands, and a more turbulent energy wave gathered in his palms, as if he wanted to swallow up the whole world.
Please collect the book!
Bang!
This attack, with the force of thunder, rushed straight towards Ling Xiao. However, surprisingly, Ling Xiao was not killed by the bombardment, but was only repelled a few steps by this powerful force, and fell steadily.
Standing in mid-air, his clothes moved automatically without any wind, making a hunting sound.
"Not a clone?" The old man was stunned for a moment. He originally thought that it would be Ling Xiao's clone who was playing tricks this time, so he didn't use much force and was prepared to leave room to deal with the next changes.
But at the moment when the attack was launched, he realized that Ling Xiao in front of him actually existed. He wanted to attack again, but found that he had a short gap due to his previous error in judgment.
In the midst of this electric light and flint, a heart-stopping aura suddenly spread from the void, as if some terrifying existence was awakening. The old man's face instantly turned pale, and he felt an unprecedented crisis.
At this moment, an attack as bright as the scorching sun struck from the depths of the void, with a power that could destroy the world and destroy the world. It was directed at the old man. That was the attack of Liezu, a strong man who was also in the Baoyuan Realm.
existence, his sneak attack is nothing short of a disaster for the old man.
Although the old man was also a strong man in the Baoyuan Realm, he was completely defenseless and unable to resist Liezu's sudden and all-out attack.
I saw his figure staggering in the air, and then he was hit firmly on the back. The whole person was like a kite with a broken string, and it hit the ground in the distance, raising a cloud of dust and debris.
