Chapter 1015 -655: Turning Evil into Falling Fire
Above the altar, the trembling gradually intensified, and debris was already falling in droves.
Gu Changhuai frowned.
Mo Huaâs gaze sharpened and he immediately said,
"Uncle Gu, the Formation has started destroying itself, the Demon Palace is going to collapse!â
"How much longer?â
Mo Hua released his Divine Sense to estimate the spiritual power volume of the collapsing Formation, âLess than 30 minutes
Gu Changhuai clenched his teeth.
He very much wanted to block Fire Buddha at the altar right then and there, to completely eliminate the future threat.
But Fire Buddha, seemingly cornered and slowed by the Water Poison, his breath weakening, was not truly at the end of his rope.
Such Demon Cultivators were notoriously difficult to killâŠ
30 minutes would not be enough to finish him off.
Moreover, Mo Hua was also within this altarâŠ
Even if he wished to take the risk and forcibly kill Fire Buddha, he had to consider Mo Huaâs safety.
With Mo Huaâs Formation talents, his future was boundless; he couldnât be left behind to be buried with a monstrous beast like Fire Buddha!
Escape first!
Gu Changhuai gave Fire Buddha a cold look and immediately said to Mo Hua:
"Letâs go!â
"Okay.â
Mo Hua didnât hesitate.
Although the altar felt as though it had been built just for him, sitting there was very comfortable and its damage a pity,
He didnât wish to be buried with it in this gloomy Demonâs Cave.
His own life was more important.
Mo Hua and Gu Changhuai then activated their movement techniques together, one figure like the wind, the other transforming into flowing water, both fleeing with all their might towards the outside of the altar.
Fire Buddha intentionally lingered a while, until Gu Changhuai and Mo Hua were far away, before he took a Blood Abnormality Pill and swallowed it.
Streams of Blood Qi and Evil Power surged into his blood vessels.
"Trying to kill me⊠wonât be that easy
Fire Buddha let out a cold laugh, his smile carrying a deeper meaning.
Then he used the power of the Pill to suppress the Water Poison and activated his movement technique; his figure, wrapped in firelight, fled out of the altar.
Mo Hua and Gu Changhuai left the altar and came to the great hall.
Inside the great hall, it was similarly in disarray, and scattered figures abounded.
Some Taoist Court Official Cultivators were still fighting against fragmented Demon Cultivators.
Some Enforcement Leaders gave chase to kill the Demon Cultivators.
Others saw the Demon Palace shaking and stood, bewildered, not knowing what to do.
Gu Changhuai frowned and coldly ordered, âEveryone, evacuate the Demon Palace!â
Then he grabbed Mo Hua with one hand and began to dash out together.
Gu Changhuai was a Golden Core Cultivator, and also practiced Wind Escape Skill.
Mo Huaâs movement technique was far less swift than his.
Moreover, at this moment, with the Demon Palace on the brink of collapse, chaos reigned, with stray Demon Cultivators around as well as panicked Enforcement Leaders, and occasionally huge stones fell from above.
Gu Changhuai was more at ease holding onto Mo Hua personally.
Thus, Mo Hua, with a helpless expression, was carried by the tall and slender Gu Changhuai, with the scenery rapidly flashing by.
Shouts, howls, the sounds of falling rocks, and occasionally the clashing sounds of Cultivatorsâ weapons filled his ears, adding to the incessant turmoil.
The altar sank, the great hall collapsed, followed by the Maze falling to ruin, and then from inside to outside, from the central hall to the outer hall, the Formation destroyed itself layer by layer, the Demon Palace collapsingâŠ
Who knows how long it took, but Mo Huaâs vision shifted, and he realized they had come outside of the Demonâs Cave.
The sky was expansive, and mountain mists lingered.
Around them were Bishan Cityâs towering hills and steep ridges.
Mo Hua looked back to see the lone peak that concealed the Demonâs Cave collapsing inwards like snow melting in hot soup, accompanied by a tremendous roar.
And at the entrance of the Demonâs Cave, many Cultivators were emerging in a frantic escape.
Most of them were Taoist Court Official Cultivators, with a few being Demon Cultivators.
The two factions, having just escaped from the Demon Palace, began to struggle against each other once again.
Some Demon Cultivators took advantage of the chaos in an attempt to escape, but Gu Changhuai blocked the stone bridge and killed any that emerged.
Mo Hua stayed hidden nearby, discreetly using Spells to control the Demon Cultivators.
If any escaped Gu Changhuaiâs immediate reach, Mo Hua would use the Water Prison Technique or the Gen Mountain Formation to trap them.
Then Gu Changhuai would finish them off.
After killing about a dozen Demon Cultivators this way, a blood-red figure suddenly appeared at the entrance of the Demon Palace.
It was Fire Buddha.
He had also escaped.
As soon as Fire Buddha got out, the whole mountain peak âboomedâ and collapsed entirely, burying the entire Demon Palace and the bizarre altar within.
Those Cultivators who couldnât escape in time were also buried.
Gu Changhuai seethed with hate, then turned to Fire Buddha with a murderous intent and instructed:
"All Enforcement Leaders, guard the stone bridge, donât let this monstrosity Fire Buddha get away!â
Afterward, a fierce wind whipped up around him as he took the lead and charged toward Fire Buddha.
Fire Buddha let out a cold laugh and again cast Meteor Fire Skill, conjuring a dense hail of fire to oppose Gu Changhuaiâs Wind Blades, clashing violently.
Other Taoist Court Official Cultivators, some guarded the stone bridge, some fought against other Demon Cultivators, and some supported Gu Changhuai from the periphery.
Mo Hua watched for a while and frowned slightly.
This Fire BuddhaâŠ
In such a short span, he appeared to have suppressed the Water Poison, healed most of his injuries, and regained much of his Evil PowerâŠ
As hard to kill as a cockroachâŠ
The situation was looking grim.
Then, in the midst of the battle, Fire Buddha suddenly bypassed Gu Changhuai, his body wreathed in fierce flames, and aimed a palm strike at an unsuspecting Enforcement Leader, trying to take his life.
Gu Changhuai moved to rescue, disrupting his offensive momentarily.
Fire Buddha used this respite to breathe, a cold and sinister smile forming at the corner of his mouth.
"At the altar, you didnât kill me; now itâs already too late
Upon hearing this, Gu Changhuaiâs expression changed, and he turned to look.
He saw Fire Buddha crush a luxurious jade rune on the spot.
Instantly, a fierce wind enveloped in intense flames whirled around Fire Buddha, and his figureâs speed increased by more than a notch.
Gu Changhuaiâs pupils constricted.
"A top-grade Rune⊠A Ten Thousand Miles Divine Travel Rune?!â
