Chapter 1027: Escape

Su Ping had combined multiple laws in the virtual battlefield, to make his attacks carry multiple traits and become much more destructive. However, those laws were apparently not as compatible as the laws in the same path.

A gigantic creature roared and rushed out of the deep space as the eight-armed ape continued pulling. What the primate pulled was only a small head, or rather, a tentacle. The creature’s original body was like a turtle covered by a thick shell; there were thick tentacles and a pointy head at the front.

The beast was massive, a thousand meters long. It looked like an interstellar aircraft carrier.

Roar!

Hardly had the giant beast been pulled out when a couple of tentacles tied up the eight-armed ape and released the complete paths of fire and lightning. Meanwhile, heavy rocks appeared on its tentacles and shell, preventing the dark energy on the ape’s arm from leaking. That was a complete path too.

A few other beasts dashed out of the deep space towards Su Ping and Loulan Lin while the giant beast held the eight-armed ape back. Overwhelming brilliance was manifested on the beasts, spreading out a unique aura; all of them made use of their Ascendant State power.

“Damn it!”

Director Xue looked rather awful; they were obviously going for Su Ping.

As for Loulan Lin…

Although she was one of the Loulans’ core descendants, she didn’t deserve an assassination scheme carried out by Ascendant State cultivators. The Loulans had a lot of Heavenly Lords who could pull strings and investigate who the murderer was.

To put it simply, Loulan Lin wasn’t worthy of being assassinated by such a powerhouse!

Besides, they were still in the Golden Star Zone. Although far from Loulan territory, the family had plenty of scouts in that star zone. All hostile forces had already been driven away.

“You dare to be distracted? Die!”

Deep inside the void—Yin Xing didn’t show up, but he quickly took action when he saw Director Xue’s weakness. His Divine Mark became hot and he used all of his strength, hoping to finish the battle as soon as possible.

He didn’t intend to spend the rest of his life in the Home of Havoc.

Director Xue roared, having no choice but to fight. He became cold once he saw that all of his enemy’s pets were using their maximum power. Then, he said, “Lin, take them away!”

The woman who had been manning the spaceship received the instruction and slightly changed her expression, but she didn’t hesitate. She quickly carried Su Ping and Loulan Lin away, revealing her true self: a glowing, bloody phoenix that flapped its wings and broke into the void.

“Where do you think you’re going?” Yin Xing roared. His pets dashed out quickly and tried to stop them.

But on the other hand, Director Xue was resisting them with his own pets too. The bloody phoenix took Su Ping away in the end.

“You’re asking to be killed!” Yin Xing roared, but he remained calm while being in deep space. He was still going all out with his attacks, aiming to kill his target.

In another place, the bloody phoenix tore the void apart and flew across half a planetary system in the blink of an eye, moving as fast as a phantom.

It only took a few minutes for the phoenix to reach a distance so far that it could no longer detect Director Xue’s battle. However, it could still locate its master through the pet contract.

Inside the golden light released by the bloody phoenix—Loulan Lin looked at Su Ping solemnly.

“Are they here for you?”

Even though the enemy’s pet had lunged at her as if she were their main target, she had never endured such an attack before. The Ascendant State assassin who ambushed her would be investigated; only Su Ping was enough for them to pay the cost of killing him!

Su Ping frowned hard, as he had thought the same. However, he couldn’t figure out who his enemy was.

Who would pay that much to kill him?

He had been training in seclusion, and had not offended anyone.

Was it the guy named Ye Ling he had confronted earlier?

Su Ping wasn’t sure, but he didn’t think it was that guy. After all, they could talk it over and solve grudges on their own by fighting after reaching the Ascendant State.

My master asked me to be extra careful because I might accidentally offend someone. Have I affected other people’s interests? But I haven’t received anything except the treasures of the Loulan family, which shouldn’t have caught enough attention to warrant this attack. Or maybe, they’re not coming for me?”

Su Ping blinked and looked at Loulan Lin, but he shook his head shortly after. She could only reach the Ascendant State at best, and that wasn’t certain; nobody would send an Ascendant State cultivator to kill her.

They want me dead only because my existence is an obstacle for them. That’s why they pay such a price. Are they… my master’s enemies?

The more Su Ping thought about it, the more likely he found it to be.

Such a move was something definitely affordable if another Celestial expert was behind this.

After all, he had great potential; he would surely be on his master’s side when he grew up.

In any case, I should do my best to survive first and ask about it later. My master should know his enemies better than I do.

Su Ping concentrated his attention and looked around. He was about to open his mouth, when a dazzling blade abruptly darted forth from a deep space where flashing was supposedly impossible, making the phoenix’s chest bleed.

In the deep space—a shadow that was a thousand meters long slithered over. “What a delicious scent. Tsk, tsk. I should be able to mutate again if I eat you.”

The creature looked like a gigantic lizard, but the appearance was creepier. It had sharp, poisonous stings from head to tail; the dense scales covering its body reflected a weird light.

The bloody phoenix shrieked due to the pain. It roared after seeing the enemy clearly, and a fiery Divine Mark appeared on its forehead, bursting out with dazzling brilliance. Corruptive flames were spread out in the deep space as if it were a meadow.

The flames weren’t entirely made of energy, as they were based on laws!

It was a unique path that the bloody phoenix had created!

Strange whispers and chaotic space blades seemed to be present. However, none of this affected the phoenix; its corruptive flames minced the violent space power and turned it into nutrition.

The beast, like a dragon in the deep sea, wagged its long and sharp tail as it slithered rapidly. It then spurted out a brilliant blade with flowing colorful light. The weapon cut through the bloody flames, then the creature approached the bloody phoenix with a flash to bite at Su Ping and Loulan Lin.

Loulan Lin stared at the bloody mouth, pale and stiffened; the unmasked Ascendant State aura made her every cell quake.

Su Ping couldn’t have looked gloomier. He took out a mirror, which produced a reflection of himself—a second Su Ping then walked out of the mirror.

That was a clone made by the Prime Sky Mirror. Su Ping was also able to control it; there was a faint connection between them.

“Senior, let’s go to other spaces. We cannot fight it!” said Su Ping quickly, “Find the Loulan family’s nearest base and have them inform the family headquarters!”

The bloody phoenix flapped its wings upon hearing that, intending to return to the sixth space. However, the space jump needed time, and the other beast was obviously prepared; it roared and released a daunting pressure. Even Su Ping’s heart started to race; he was almost shivering.

However, he had faced countless ferocious beasts in the cultivation sites, and was soon accustomed to the deterrent power. He was going to break the void apart and escape into the eighth space with the bloody phoenix!

Ascendants could only wander in the seventh space, which was an already dangerous place for them, as they could die there at any time!

However, Su Ping could travel there with the Prime Sky Mirror. He would have to travel constantly to avoid disasters in the eighth space.

But then Su Ping felt some resistance the moment the mirror was activated. The void around him was indestructible; it seemed to be blocked!

“Master specifically sent me to ambush you here. You think I wasn’t prepared? Go to hell!” roared the beast, cutting apart the golden light with a brilliant blade, which was about to wipe out both Su Ping and Loulan Lin.

The bloody phoenix immediately shrieked, with bloody flames all over its body. It then flapped one of its wings, raising a flame tide to maul the beast.

The avian pet turned around and spurted a mouthful of flames that caused a hole in the void. Then, it pushed Su Ping and Loulan Lin inside. “Just run. Don’t bother me.”

The phoenix’s voice echoed in Su Ping’s head, determined to sacrifice itself.

Su Ping looked rather awful. He immediately attempted to activate the Prime Sky Mirror when he was pushed into the hole, this time being successful; he sensed that the spatial layers were near at hand.

With just one thought, he and Loulan Lin vanished from that place.

They reappeared in the sixth space.

Su Ping flashed and arrived in the tertiary space.

After that, he flashed once more, switching between spaces again and again; he quickly jumped forward while he did so.

Even Su Ping’s abundant strength had been used up halfway after a hundred times, even when he was quickly replenishing his energy.

We should have left it behind already. Even if it tracks me down, it would have to zigzag a lot. Besides, I even went to the eighth space…?Su Ping’s eyes glittered.

He only stayed for one moment in the eighth space before he jumped again. However, during that one moment, he felt an extremely cold aura leaking out and freezing his body.

Whoosh!

In the last flash, Su Ping went to the universe outside.

He found himself in a strange area; there were multiple desolate planets nearby, and a primitive planet devoid of any signs of life.

Su Ping immediately took Loulan Lin to the planet.

He turned on his watch as they traveled, trying to find out where they were.

But weirdly enough, the coordinates on his watch flashed constantly, unable to fix a position in the end.

“Do you know where we are?” Su Ping instantly asked Loulan Lin.

She was in a trance, as the beast had frightened her quite a bit. She might have been killed or ended mentally deranged if her willpower were any lower.

She finally snapped out of it when Su Ping nudged her. After being dazed for a long time, she looked at Su Ping and then her surroundings; she was relieved to find that they were both alive. She shook her head and said, “No. I’ve never been here before. Let me see.”

“It’s useless. I’ve just checked. We can’t find our location here.”

“I have special services,” Loulan Lin said and quickly searched, but then found that she couldn’t find their location, either.

“Your special services might not be better than mine.” Su Ping looked at her watch and found that she was tier-6, although she had more titles behind her name.

In any case, his tier 7 clearance should have granted him more permissions.
