The Strongest Dandy in the City Chapter 2613 - 2602: Buying Time
Previously on The Strongest Dandy in the City...
Ye Chenfeng decoded the powerful Teleportation Array hidden within.
After a long while, he managed to repair this originally incomplete Teleportation Array.
However, he faced challenges in activating the Teleportation Array.
Now, the Teleportation Array is in a state of activation, but it requires some time to build up energy. Only when the Teleportation Array is fully charged with energy can it truly be considered activated.
There’s no shortage of energy in this shrine, yet not being able to activate the Teleportation Array immediately made Ye Chenfeng somewhat anxious.
Currently, the red mist flowing down from above resembled rolling red smoke, accompanied by a voice screaming desperately: "Little thing, prepare to die!"
The fierce soundwave caused the energy defenses enveloping the shrine to tremble involuntarily. For the roar of the Skyhawk to contain such power, what level is his cultivation exactly?
Song Lanruo and Fang Duo’er were terrified, and their eyes remained fixed on the shrine’s entrance.
Ye Chenfeng said, "Stand inside this Formation."
Completely obedient to Ye Chenfeng, Song Lanruo and Fang Duo’er unhesitatingly stood within the continually charging Teleportation Array.
Ye Chenfeng then repaired a defensive Formation around them and made some modifications to it.
Subsequently, Song Lanruo and Fang Duo’er were immediately enveloped in a small defensive Formation.
Ye Chenfeng knew that the energy protection covering the shrine wouldn’t last long.
There was still some time before the Teleportation Array was fully charged. Ye Chenfeng must find a way to delay.
Ye Chenfeng camouflaged a bit of the Teleportation Array from view, so even if the Skyhawk arrived, he wouldn’t immediately notice it.
After arranging for Song Lanruo and Fang Duo’er, Ye Chenfeng moved to the spot where a breach had previously appeared, positioning himself in front of it to block it from the Skyhawk’s view.
The Formation under the breach extended upwards, so now Ye Chenfeng’s feet were directly on it as he slowly transmitted Spiritual Energy into the Formation.
The Spiritual Energy entering the Formation.
Was gradually being distributed to all the Chaotic Thunder Bombs below.
Infusing all these Chaotic Thunder Bombs with enough Spiritual Energy to detonate them requires an incredibly large amount. If it weren’t for Ye Chenfeng’s current initial-stage Divine Emperor Realm cultivation, he wouldn’t be able to blow up so many Chaotic Thunder Bombs even if he depleted all his Spiritual Energy.
To control the timing between the Chaotic Thunder Bombs and the activation of the Teleportation Array, Ye Chenfeng had to be extremely precise.
After all, once triggered, the Chaotic Thunder Bombs only have a buffering time of three breaths.
Meanwhile, on the ground above,
As the Skyhawk absorbed more and more cultivators’ blood, the bandages wrapping his body all split open.
Layer after layer of bandages began to fall away, revealing his true face—a wrinkled old man, his skin like shriveled orange peel. Around him, many cultvators remained, their blood not yet absorbed, staring blankly in place.
The Skyhawk’s face twisted into a ferocious smile, releasing billowing blood energy from his body, an unfathomably powerful aura emanating in surges. Judging from the aura erupting from him now, he seemed to be at the peak of the Divine Emperor Realm.
Having regained his mobility, the Skyhawk could control the red mist in the air. With a sweep of his hand, the red mist converged toward the ground below, and he darted towards the shrine beneath.
The Skyhawk moved incredibly fast.
So fast he seemed to disappear into the air, appearing at the shrine’s entrance in just two breaths.
The dense red mist relentlessly assaulted the energy shield covering the shrine.
The layers of energy defenses became increasingly unstable. With a wave of his hand, the Skyhawk scattered the gathered red mist aside and suddenly struck the layers of the energy shield with his palm.
As his palm touched the energy shield, an ocean-like force burst from his palm.
This wave-like force possessed terrifying destructive power.
The energy shield covering the shrine was quickly riddled with numerous cracks, spreading rapidly.
"Boom!"
In an instant, the barrier that had covered the entire shrine shattered.
The red mist didn’t flood into the shrine, controlled by the Skyhawk. He stepped inside gradually: "I won’t let you die so easily."
That’s why the Skyhawk controlled the red mist, fearing that under it, Ye Chenfeng would die too swiftly.
The Skyhawk didn’t notice the breach Ye Chenfeng blocked behind him or that Ye Chenfeng was channeling Spiritual Energy below.
As for Song Lanruo and Fang Duo’er, the Skyhawk overlooked them entirely, having no interest in these two girls. Naturally, he didn’t notice the hidden Teleportation Array beneath them either.
The Skyhawk looked at Ye Chenfeng with interest: "Little thing, I told you I’d tear you to pieces. Do you regret it now? Maybe if you’d cooperated with me earlier, it wouldn’t have come to this."
Ye Chenfeng frowned tightly, continuously transmitting Spiritual Energy through his feet, cautiously and meticulously, not daring to let the Skyhawk notice anything suspicious.
With the continued depletion of Spiritual Energy, Ye Chenfeng felt a sense of weakness, but he maintained his composure and his focus on buying time: "Do you seriously think I’d believe you’d let me go?"
The Skyhawk also thought Ye Chenfeng was beginning to regret it, delaying his attack: "Who said I’d let you go? If you cooperate, I might at least ensure you a painless death. However, now you’ll suffer a fate worse than death."
Ye Chenfeng chuckled: "Who says I’ll die? Maybe you’ll be the one to die in the end?"
Estimating the timing, the energy in the Teleportation Array was nearly full, and the Spiritual Energy in the Chaotic Thunder Bombs was almost completely infused.
Ye Chenfeng was growing increasingly weak, sustained only by sheer willpower to keep from swaying. He ground his teeth tightly.
The Skyhawk stopped wasting words with Ye Chenfeng, his figure vanishing on the spot.
The supreme pressure of the peak Divine Emperor Realm suddenly pressed down on Ye Chenfeng.
