Chapter 2235: Chapter 2279: Fleeing for Life

Jiang Fan hesitated over whether to use Linglong’s flight Talent. Once that Little Angel was activated, it could travel at Linglong’s speed for a whole day. But that was his ultimate life-saving trump card. If he used it now, what would he rely on if the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis hunted him down again after he left the Sumeru Divine Prison?

Countless sparks flashed through his mind. Gritting his teeth, he said, "I’ll just have to risk it!"

He pushed the Void Feather Robe on his back to its absolute limit, executing rapid Instantaneous Movement through the blood-red Void.

Two cups of tea’s time later.

The blood-colored world felt like an inescapable nightmare. No matter how he used Instantaneous Movement, he couldn’t break free. Instead, his vision was inundated by crimson, as if he were soaking in a Blood Sea, unable to tell which way was which. He could only rely on the Void Map to navigate.

Meanwhile, the figure of the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis trailing behind him was already clearly visible! That terrifying Blood Spear in his hand radiated fluctuations of pure destruction!

Dharma Seal’s brows furrowed tightly in a rare display of concern. He stared into the Buddha Bowl, whose contents had already been reflected as a pool of bloody water by the surrounding blood aura. Jiang Fan’s bloody calamity was drawing closer and closer!

"Martial Granduncle, allow this poor monk to stay behind and cover your retreat. Even if I can only buy you a single instant, it will be enough," Dharma Seal said calmly.

Jiang Fan’s brows locked tight as he replied, "Don’t add to the mess. You’re not even enough to fill the gaps between his teeth!

"This isn’t necessarily a dead end for me!

"It all depends on whose side luck is on!"

With that said, he forcefully suppressed his uneasy heartbeat and sped onward.

One cup of tea’s time later.

The turbulent currents of the Void all around them grew noticeably more chaotic. One could faintly see streaks of spatial storms wreaking havoc in the distance. Back then, it was exactly a spatial storm that had swept Jiang Fan away to the Sumeru Divine Prison.

The dense spatial storms ahead indicated one thing. The Sumeru Divine Prison was not far!

Similarly, the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis had finally caught up!

The two were separated by a single stretch of sky. The figure of the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis, clad in cold black armor and gripping a long spear, was clearly visible. Holding the reins in one hand, he rode his horse forward and said indifferently, "Stop your meaningless struggles!

"Die, Jiang Fan of the Central Earth!"

Jiang Fan scoffed. He utilized the Void Feather Robe to execute Instantaneous Movement, blinking right up to a nearby spatial storm. Amidst the chaotic space, the effectiveness of the Void Feather Robe was severely restricted. It was difficult for him to even stabilize his footing.

However, Jiang Fan had the Wind God Order Flag! He immediately brought out the flag and manipulated the nearby spatial storms, directing them to bypass him. At the same time, he sent them sweeping toward the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis behind him to impede his advance!

"Petty tricks!" The Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis swept his Blood Spear horizontally. With his terrifying strength, he outright obliterated the incoming spatial storm.

But if there was one thing this place did not lack, it was spatial storms! Under the manipulation of the Wind God Order Flag, spatial storms from afar surged forward one after another, forming a spatial tide that crashed toward the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis.

If one spatial storm couldn’t stop him, then surely ten or a hundred could at least slow his pace, right? As expected, the charging figure of the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis began to slow down.

A trace of excitement flickered in Jiang Fan’s eyes. "Dharma Seal, it seems the Goddess of Fate favors me a bit more after all!"

What he intended to utilize were the very spatial storms on the outskirts of the Sumeru Divine Prison. However, he hadn’t been certain if these spatial storms still existed after such a long time.

As it turned out, his luck was excellent. Perhaps because the Sumeru Divine Prison had been explored by the Tongyuan Realm Master and others, causing further chaos, the nearby spatial storms had not decreased but actually multiplied!

Even so, he couldn’t let his guard down. He didn’t dare linger for even a moment, speeding madly toward the Sumeru Divine Prison.

The distance between the two sides began to widen.

Seeing his almost-captured target slip away once again, monstrous killing intent flooded the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis’s eyes.

"You think mere turbulent Void currents can trap me, the Marquis?"

The massive blood moon beneath him suddenly melted, transforming into a Blood Sea filled with mountains of corpses. It charged head-on into the tsunami of spatial storms.

PSSHH—

The Blood Sea was highly corrosive, melting a long gap straight through the tsunami. Wielding his long spear, the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis rode his horse right out of the gap.

Using Instantaneous Movement to distance himself further, Jiang Fan’s brow twitched violently. "This guy is truly relentless!"

As he channeled the Void Feather Robe, he mobilized the spatial storms along his path, creating as many obstacles for the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis as possible. It had an effect, but a very limited one.

The distance between them was rapidly closing! By now, Jiang Fan could already see the incomparably enormous, giant black structure suspended in the dark Void. It was none other than the Sumeru Divine Prison!

Yet, despite the distance being right in front of his eyes, Jiang Fan felt that every step closer was excruciating torment. As every second and minute ticked by, the aura of the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis pressed closer step by step. A suffocating feeling dominated him, making every movement a struggle.

Finally.

Just when they were only a few Instantaneous Movement distances away from the damaged gates, a familiar, icy chill erupted from his heart!

He turned his head to look. The Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis had raised his terrifying Blood Spear, locking onto Jiang Fan from afar. The close proximity between them was already enough for the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis to launch a fatal attack!

Could he really not avoid it in the end? Jiang Fan gritted his teeth, just about to stop and prepare for a desperate fight to the death.

Suddenly, from the corner of his eye, he spotted metallic Puppets sensing the commotion and swarming over in droves. His eyes lit up. He had almost forgotten—there were Sage Level Puppet guards patrolling the perimeter of the Sumeru Divine Prison!

However, the Puppets attacked indiscriminately. They wouldn’t automatically help him fend off the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis.

But this wasn’t enough to stump Jiang Fan.

He took out the Light God Command Banner and channeled it. In an instant, all the light shining around Jiang Fan and Dharma Seal was refracted away. From the Puppets’ perspective, the spot where the two stood became a complete blind spot; there was absolutely nothing there.

The portion of the Puppets that had been charging toward them paused slightly to process this, then turned around to attack the distant Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis.

There were dozens of Puppets in this area! Even if they weren’t a match for the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis, they would still manage to hinder him a little.

"Get lost!" the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis shouted coldly. The initial wave of Puppets attacking him was immediately shattered into metallic parts.

Yet, the metallic Puppets behind them were entirely fearless of death, throwing themselves forward one after another. The Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis’s charging speed slowed once again.

By the time he annihilated all the Puppets with a single thrust of his spear, Jiang Fan had already dragged Dharma Seal right up to the gates of the Sumeru Divine Prison.

Seemingly aware of some profoundly ominous entity within the Sumeru Divine Prison, his pupils contracted as he roared in anger, "Stop right there!"

He hurled the Blood Spear in his hand straight forward!

Jiang Fan’s expression changed drastically. Without a second thought, he summoned the Nine-Colored Dragon Pearl to shield his back. Barely a split second after bringing out the Dragon Ball, the Blood Spear transcended time and arrived for the kill.

The Blood Spear slammed into the Nine-Colored Dragon Pearl and was immediately rebounded, but the terrifyingly ferocious might that swept along with it still crashed viciously into the two of them. To them, this was still a fatal attack!

Fortunately, the moment Jiang Fan summoned the Dragon Ball, he had also summoned eighteen Breaking Array Stones, enveloping the two of them in protection.

The aura of destruction drowned the two like a torrential flood, forcefully blasting them straight into the Sumeru Divine Prison.

Despite the protection of the Array Stones, the faint trace of ferocious might that leaked through was enough to cause their qi and blood to churn violently. Jiang Fan opened his mouth and spat out a massive mouthful of blood, while Dharma Seal’s body cracked, his Buddhist blood pouring out like a fountain.

Traces of agony densely covered his face. Just a fraction more, and Dharma Seal’s Buddhist body would have been utterly annihilated!
