Longevity, starting from being a chicken raising servant Chapter 2345 183: Departure (Part 2)

The streak of blue light hurtled forward at an astonishing pace. Even though the net sealed off every gap, it darted away just before the net could close in completely, touching down right at the edge of a crumbling barrier.

Beneath that barrier stood the skinny elder, the young man dressed in red robes, and the rest of their group.

The earlier crash from the Ten Thousand Headed Lion Beast had caused the whole Azure Dragon Mountain Range to crumble apart. As a result, every cultivator from the Three Sects had no choice but to flee their sect's base.

Clear terror and disorder shone in the cultivators' gazes, barely hidden beneath a veneer of pretended composure.

The skinny elder and the young man in red robes both wore expressions of utter hopelessness in their eyes.

Facing a catastrophe of this magnitude, the entire Cloud Sky Realm risked total annihilation, to say nothing of the Three Sects.

The blue streak of light halted just briefly, unveiling Wang Ba's form, leaving him no chance to utter a word. He flicked his sleeve, drawing in every person from the Three Sects below, after which the wing resembling a bird's on his back beat once, turning him into a blur of blue radiance that shot off at top speed!

The very instant he took off, a mesh woven from countless glowing orbs and the gray-robed monk's palm slammed down, only to strike nothing but emptiness.

"Such speed from this rascal!"

Anger flared hot in the gray-robed monk's chest. As he watched the blue streak flash rapidly across his vision, heading straight back to the outer domains, he gave immediate chase.

Swoosh—

Wang Ba broke free from the Realm Membrane.

In front of him, dazzling Buddha glows shimmered faintly amid the far-off emptiness of the Realm Sea. In front of the massive Seated Buddha, a pair of silhouettes confronted one another, shrouded in laws that obscured clear sight.

Innumerable clashes twisted through the surrounding emptiness!

Indisputably, that spot held the Tianshang Buddha Lord and Master Chao.

Gazing at the position of those two from a distance, even with the weight pressing on his mind, Wang Ba didn't waver at all, quickly detecting the spot and then speeding toward the strongest signal he picked up!

That path ran straight opposite the clash zone of the two Mahayana powerhouses.

Wang Ba refused to waste even a second. Though he yearned to depart, the Heaven and Earth Net had already been spread outside in advance. The moment he emerged, over a dozen Arhat forms popped up suddenly in the outer realm's void, shifting into clusters of golden brilliance, determined to halt his progress!

"Those who block me shall die!"

Cold gleam lit up in Wang Ba's eyes, his hand smooth as jade shot out like a colossal ape shifting peaks, slamming hard at the glowing clusters in front!

Boom!

More than ten Arhat forms burst out from those glowing clusters right away, breaking into fragments!

"Such audacity!"

A shout boomed from behind, roaring like a lion's thunder that rattled the spirit.

"The Northern Great Bodhisattva... so he's aiming at me, still in pursuit!"

Wang Ba's spirits dropped. With no way to rally the Arhats in his path, he summoned the blue gale and tore through them in a flash, surging deeper into the void at full tilt!

At the same time, the gray-robed monk trailed right after, smashing past the Arhats who had barely regrouped, his gaze ablaze with the flames of the Three Poisons, as if ready to consume everything, betraying not a trace of a noble monk's virtue.

"You can't escape!"

The gray-robed monk bellowed from a distance.

Wang Ba ignored it completely, his attention locked tight and body coiled, pressing ahead, stare pinned on the remote void, feeling out the gaps in space, figuring out the distances in a hurry:

"Still need a bit more..."

He poured everything into the effort, but clearly now it matched the 'grim situation' that Bai Lechan and Master Chao had described.

Lingering aimlessly in this place held no value for him any longer.

With the Three Sects now safe in his care, his sole worry left was Master Chao's well-being...

Still, things remained the same: even with countless motives to remain, since he carried the duty for Little Cang World's protection, his own survival had to take priority always.

Right then, pulling away from here offered the best shot at security.

His mind stirred faintly, planning to deploy the Escape and Dissolve Divine Skill to dash to the detected location. Yet as expected, it proved useless.

"The place is sealed!"

Wang Ba's heart plunged.

Boom!

A barrage of noises hurtled toward him, but he crushed them in an instant!

Refusing to hold back even slightly, the blue streak of light charged into the void, abruptly sensing a vibration and halting, before he lifted his hand to test it out.

Mid-extension, his palm felt jammed against an unseen surface, blocked from advancing a single bit further!

"It's the old void barrier!"

Wang Ba at once remembered the hidden wall he had bumped into upon first entering the Cloud Sky Realm, when True Man Ba and True Man Nie piloted the Flying Dao Treasure, just like this now, only tougher than it used to be.

His guess confirmed, dread surged in his chest!

He wouldn't risk staying put, so the shadowy wings at his back beat furiously, causing him to blink into view a short distance off.

Boom—

Over ten massive golden palm strikes thundered through the void!

But it was as though an unseen barrier in the emptiness halted every assault flat on one level.

Soon after, the gray-robed monk arrived, staring intently at Wang Ba with a face twisted in rage.

He really never thought Layman Taiyi could move so quickly, leaving him a bit behind in the pursuit, and with one failed grab after another, he teetered on the edge of snapping.

But in that instant, spotting the foe at last cornered, ensnared in the very trap they had set for Mahayana foes, a spark of glee rose in him, even drawing out a chilly sneer as he declared:

"Layman Taiyi, what else do you have?"

Wang Ba pressed back against the hidden wall, feeling its unbreakable grand presence, his face oddly serene, going against what the Northern Great Bodhisattva anticipated, and he murmured softly:
