Beyond the Timescape

Chapter 925: Let’s Do This Together, Everyone!

Silence reigned in the cave.

Lan Yao stood there with a blank look on her face. Yue Dong’s mind reeled as she felt completely stunned.

“He... he ate it?”

Both of them felt like what they had just witnessed wasn’t even real, despite having seen it play out with their own eyes. It had been shocking to see Feng Lintao produce such a rare and powerful item. In fact, they had instantly been overwhelmed with a sensation of profound danger, to the point where they had been preparing to simply flee and give up on any hope of achieving their goals.

That was a sageheaven god vine! A matured version of that vine had wiped out an entire holy land. Its terrifying nature was a thing of legend, and was so well-known among the other holy lands that no one would ever dare to take it lightly.

And yet... a terrifying sageheaven god vine had just been eaten right in front of them.... Granted, it was an infant form. But for someone to swallow it down so casually was something neither of the women could ever have imagined possible. In fact, it led them to wonder if Feng Lintao had actually been using a fake sageheaven god vine.

If they reacted in that manner, there was little need to mention how Feng Lintao reacted. His expression was one of blank astonishment. His eyes couldn’t have been wider, and he was so completely and utterly thunderstruck that his mind contained nothing but deafening rumbling sounds. His mind seemed to empty of all thoughts, until there was nothing left behind. He looked stupefied as he stared dully at the Captain’s mouth....

Considering how much of a paranoid and distrustful person Feng Lintao was, the only time he could possibly enter a state like this would be when gaining enlightenment of magical laws. In other words, it required a very special destined opportunity, along with the perfect circumstances, for him to empty his mind of all thought. It was a mental state lacking any impurities, and needed an immense level of good fortune to achieve. Truth be told, this was actually the first time he had ever entered a state like this.

Thankfully for him, that state didn’t last for long. After a brief moment in which he lacked any thought in his mind, everything turned around, and he was filled with a myriad of conflicted thoughts.

Distracting thoughts filled him until he was shaking. When the effect reached his throat, he started breathing unstably. And then it reached his soul, and he started to suspect that maybe he hadn’t pulled out that vine to begin with. But then he checked to see, and he found....

“Ahem,” the Captain said, blinking a few times. Then he continued in a tone of voice that could drive anyone into a fury. “There’s no need to check, Little Fengfeng. I can confirm that you didn’t make a mistake. The flavor was very, very pure.”

Murder. Execution.

The Captain's words perfectly provoked those two concepts.

When Feng Lintao heard his words, he started shaking even more violently, and his mind filled with an unending host of thoughts. Fury. Regret. Anxiety. Humiliation. Jealousy. Depression. All of them raged within his heart and mind. Pain filled his head, causing blood vessels to bulge on his forehead. Immense pressure and heat began to build within him. His chest felt like an empty hole that could devour anything and everything.

His face first turned pale, then bright red, then green, and finally as black as night. It was easy to imagine what was going on inside of him for his face to change between so many colors in such a short amount of time. Next, Feng Lintao coughed up a massive mouthful of blood, then emitted a scream that could destroy the heavens and crush the earth! It was filled with raging animosity and incomparable madness.

“I’m gonna kill you!!!”

Feng Lintao was devolving into insanity. In fact, his aura was surging so wildly that his three sealed major worlds suddenly showed signs of being unsealed. Surging with power and momentum, he launched himself at the Captain.

Seeing the maddened Feng Lintao rushing toward them caused Xu Qing’s eyes to glitter coldly. Clasping his right hand into a fist, he took a step forward and launched a vicious blow.

The Undying Emperor’s Fist rocketed forward. Simultaneously, The Emperor’s Sword’s slashed ruthlessly toward Feng Lintao.

The Captain, meanwhile, snorted coldly and cocked his head. As a result, a green vine shot out from the top of his head. It was several meters long, and as it whipped from one side to the other, it shattered the air.

Xu Qing’s fist slammed into Feng Lintao, and a boom rang out. Xu Qing grunted as he was shoved backward. As for Feng Lintao, he ignored any possible injuries as he lunged forward again.

But then The Emperor’s Sword flashed. Sword light swept forth, and blood sprayed everywhere as half of his arm was sliced off. Then the Captain’s vine lashed into Feng Lintao with terrifying force. A huge boom echoed out in all directions. Blood sprayed out of Feng Lintao’s mouth as he was sent spinning off to the side.

The Captain cleared his throat, smiled, and said, “I only just ate it, so I don’t have much control.”

It was hard to tell if even he believed what he was saying.

Meanwhile, Lan Yao and Yue Dong, though astonished by the developments, were still extraordinary individuals. Suppressing their surprise, they took advantage of the moment. Killing intent surging, they shot forward. Given how everything had played out, one thing was for sure: these two women were dead set on killing Feng Lintao. An eight-colored peacock shot toward him, surrounded by an eight-colored wind, eight-colored rain, and eight-colored clouds. From Yue Dong came an ice spear that destroyed everything in its path like a boulder crushing a drinking glass.

Seeing all of that caused a sensation of deadly crisis to explode in Feng Lintao. At the same time, it forced him to regain some of the mental clarity he had lost thanks to the Captain. He had no choice but to suppress some of the random thoughts in his mind. However, whether it was the madness or the humiliation, he couldn’t control all of the emotions. When your life was on the line, some things... just had to be sidelined!

Of course, most people might come to that realization but be unable to follow through. After all, given how much had been lost, the resulting emotions were nearly uncontrollable. But Feng Lintao was inherently paranoid and cautious, and was also unusually intelligent. As a result, he could make snap decisions.

Eyes glimmering with cold light, he unhesitatingly went into an incantation gesture. Instantly, one of his three sealed major worlds suddenly blurred, then collapsed. That collapse caused a terrifying power to spread out violently in all directions. Astonishingly, he was choosing to detonate one of his sealed major worlds!

It was an immense price to pay. After all, because it was sealed, the power of detonation couldn’t reach its full potential. At the very best, it might be half of what it could be. What was more, because it was in a sealed state, that power couldn’t be used to bolster himself. It was essentially like a one-off detonation of a magical treasure.

Furthermore, this act would reduce the number of major worlds he had by one. That would result in an actual drop in cultivation base, and recovering from it would be immeasurably difficult. In fact, it was even possible it couldn’t be recovered from. When all was said and done, it was a ruthless decision for him to make.

Neither Lan Yao nor Yue Dong would have been able to do something like this, even in a moment of deadly crisis. Both would need to take time to think things through before going through with it. Even though only a portion of the detonation power could be released, and even though it could only be done once, it was still a violent and terrifying act. After all, this was an entire major world. Rumbling sounds echoed out as a violent shock wave spread out in all directions.

Lan Yao and Yue Dong were facing the brunt of the attack, and there was no way either one of them wanted to put everything on the line. Both chose to avoid the blast as best they could.

As for Xu Qing and the Captain... they didn’t do anything to follow up on their first attack.

Feng Lintao, meanwhile, had already given up on trying to kill Xu Qing and the Captain. He was using the detonation of his major world as a way to try to escape with his own life. In the blink of an eye, he shot toward the entrance of the passageway. Reaching the obstacle Yue Dong had put up, he launched a fist strike.

He wanted out!

At the same time, the coldness in his eyes grew more intense. Though he had chosen to flee, he wasn’t completely ready to just give up on everything. He was planning to free the golden rat on his way out! If he could add it to the chaos, then he had a chance to take advantage of a crisis for personal gain. Perhaps by launching a deadly counter attack, he could actually reverse the situation. That was what made it worth it to detonate his major world.

Meanwhile, the other four people involved were all intelligent in their own ways. That was obvious when it came to Xu Qing and the Captain. It was also clear with Lan Yao, considering how she had plotted against Feng Lintao and turned the tables on him.

Although Yue Dong hadn’t done very much so far, the fact she could do something akin to asking a tiger for its skin, went to show how extraordinary she was.

The moment Feng Lintao detonated his major world and made a break for the passageway, the others could guess what he was planning to do.

In the blink of an eye, the Captain’s vine whipped through the air, and he shouted, “Let’s do this together, everyone! We’ve got to kill him! If he lets loose that rat, we’re all in deep trouble!”

The Captain seemed like he was ready to throw caution to the wind as he shot toward the passageway. Lan Yao and Yue Dong gritted their teeth and followed him. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

It seemed like they were all going to focus on killing Feng Lintao. But then, an instant later, three out of the four people suddenly seemed to be moving a bit slower than the others....

Only Yue Dong actually closed in on Feng Lintao as he battered at the barrier to the passageway.

Xu Qing stopped in midair.

Lan Yao made an initial lunge toward the passageway, but then stopped and went back to the Fardark Cistern. There, she waved her hand to collect all of the holy fardark nectar plus the golden egg.

Yue Dong actually didn’t seem surprised by the developments.

However, Lan Yao wasn’t the only one to look back at the pool. The Captain’s vine also did the same.

It shot with astonishing speed toward the golden egg, wrapped it up, and then scrambled to get some of the liquid from the pool. Unfortunately, because of targeting the egg first, the vine only managed to get about twenty percent of the nectar. The other eighty percent went to Lan Yao.

Although Lan Yao wasn’t happy about losing the egg, when she thought about what she’d seen the Captain do moments ago, she looked at the vine, then backed away with her guard up.

The Captain was likewise not very happy to lose the rest of the nectar. However, he knew they were in a tight situation, so he didn’t do anything to Lan Yao. That said, he did manage to collect the remnants of the destroyed mantis puppets.

By the time those things were accomplished, Feng Lintao and Yue Dong had reached a critical moment in their fight.

Thanks to Yue Dong’s interference, Feng Lintao had failed to break open the barrier.

That said, Feng Lintao’s decisiveness wasn’t limited to what he had done already. Eyes shining with cold light, he suddenly detonated another of his sealed major worlds! As the devastating shockwave spread out, Yue Dong was thrown in the opposite direction. At the same time, the barrier crumbled.

Panting for breath, Feng Lintao unhesitatingly shot into the passageway.

At that exact moment, dark mist built up in Xu Qing’s eyes, and the godly authority of taboo poison spread out. Hellfei appeared!

“Six Filths of the Gods!”
