Checking in for 100,000 Years Chapter 472: The Storm Begins, Blowing Away All Weirdness
A swift streak of black light, resembling a black bolt of lightning, darted away rapidly under the concealment of thick black fog. Several golden beams and a blue beam were closely tailing behind this black light.
The one escaping was none other than the Big Black Cat. And the ones on his tail were the Golden Winged Roc, the Nine-tailed Fox Demon, and Young Master Lan Qing of the Azure Wolf Clan.
Although the Big Black Cat possessed the Emperor Artifact Walking Boots, the powerful demons pursuing him were all skilled fliers, so he couldn’t widen the gap significantly. He could only gradually, painstakingly extend his lead while constantly on the move.
Showing slick foresight, the Big Black Cat didn’t flee towards the twenty-third Heavenly Mechanism Tower but constantly flew towards the entrance.
"No matter where the Nine-tailed Spirit Cat flees, even if it’s to the ends of the earth, this time, we must catch him," the Nine-tailed Fox Demon declared sinisterly, standing atop the gigantic azure wolf.
This time, the Nine-tailed Spirit Cat had slapped her butt in front of so many onlookers—it was utterly humiliating.
This time, to prolong their ancestor’s life, all seven princesses of their Nine-tailed Demon Fox Clan had mobilized. Each princess had allied with a powerful member of the Demon Clan, forming seven small teams to compete. The one who obtained more Divine Element Longevity Fruits of better quality would be handsomely rewarded by their ancestor.
She had only been in this place for a short time and hadn’t ventured deep into the Nether Immortal Ancient Land when this scandal suddenly erupted.
"Those Teleportation Boots on the Nine-tailed Spirit Cat’s feet are quite impressive, Seventh Princess," Young Master Lan Qing remarked via sound transmission as he flew rapidly.
"Indeed, they are. That disgusting creature has only managed to survive because of those Teleportation Boots," the Nine-tailed Fox Demon replied, her tone gloomy.
"If we capture him, I hope the Seventh Princess will help me find a way to obtain those Teleportation Boots," Young Master Lan Qing said, clearly interested.
"I understand. When the time comes, I will negotiate with the Golden Winged Roc," the Nine-tailed Fox Demon nodded.
The Big Black Cat fled continuously. He occasionally encountered strange creatures but didn’t dare to charge past them, opting for detours instead. Consequently, the distance he managed to put between himself and his pursuers wasn’t very large.
He had been fleeing for about two or three Time Units. The Big Black Cat reckoned that he was close to the fourteenth Heavenly Mechanism Tower, but he still hadn’t caught sight of the Azure Sea Heavenly Dragon.
BOOM! BOOM!
Suddenly, the sounds of battle rang out from ahead. Dazzling sword lights flickered intermittently in the fog, and several millstone-sized black shadows loomed like gathering dark clouds in the mist ahead.
"Huh?" The Big Black Cat was suddenly shocked; he sensed the aura of a Life and Death Realm cultivator in the fog ahead.
His heart stirred.
The Big Black Cat gritted his teeth and, without hesitation, charged towards the site of the battle.Upon reaching the battle site, numerous Ghost Moths immediately swarmed him. The Big Black Cat raised his Black Shield, batting away the attacking Ghost Moths. This slowed him down slightly, allowing his pursuers to narrow the gap.
"HAHA, Nine-tailed Spirit Cat, where will you run this time!" the Golden Winged Roc burst into loud laughter, its wings flapping violently as it accelerated its pursuit.
After batting away a few Ghost Moths, the Big Black Cat spotted a small group ahead, battling a swarm of Ghost Moths. When he saw the little blue cat in the arms of the girl in the colorful dress, an excited smile spread across the Big Black Cat’s face.
"Senior, save me! There are some shameless guys chasing me!" the Big Black Cat, as if seeing his lifeline, immediately sent a sound transmission.
"You audacious Little Black!" the Azure Sea Heavenly Dragon exclaimed, its head snapping up as it heard the Big Black Cat’s voice. "How dare you abandon the Sect Master?" It saw a streak of black light approaching but no sign of the Sect Master or the others. It was somewhat annoyed.
"Senior, I lured the enemies here! The Sect Master and the others are safe at the twenty-second Heavenly Mechanism Tower!" the Big Black Cat quickly explained via sound transmission.
"I see," the Azure Sea Heavenly Dragon finally comprehended. It glanced back and saw that the pursuers were merely a few Destiny Realm monsters, causing it to sneer inwardly.
Seeing the tens of thousands of Ghost Moths swarming around, an idea struck the Azure Sea Heavenly Dragon.
The Azure Sea Heavenly Dragon noticed that the girl in the colorful dress holding it was focused on the battle and hadn’t paid it any attention. So, it subtly waved its small, fluffy blue paw, conjuring a sudden gust of wind.
The wind came abruptly. However, this gust of wind was peculiar; it didn’t seem to significantly affect anyone in their small team. Instead, all the Ghost Moths were blown away, nowhere to be seen.
Meanwhile, the distant pursuers—the Golden Winged Roc, the Nine-tailed Fox Demon, and the members of the Azure Wolf Clan—were also swept away without a trace by this gust of wind.
Seeing this, the Big Black Cat couldn’t help but feel overjoyed.
"Thank you, Senior, for your assistance! Please take me near the twenty-second Heavenly Mechanism Tower," he chuckled, making a respectful gesture in mid-air as he sent the sound transmission.
"Good. Hurry back to the Sect Master and the others," the Azure Sea Heavenly Dragon replied. It flicked its paw, and another gentle whirlwind rose.
The Big Black Cat vanished in an instant.
"That gust of wind was so abrupt! It actually blew away all the Ghost Moths, and those Destiny Realm demons from the pursuing group as well!" the Life and Death Realm cultivator from the Su family exclaimed. He stood in the fog, his Divine Sense sweeping the surroundings, a shocked expression on his face.
