Chapter 1036: Chapter 1036 - 454: New World_3

But, it’s still not enough.

Still missing, the final step.

The true, final step!

"Heaven and earth, all things come to life and perish.

"Array source, reverse!"

Boom!!!

A beam of light shot up into the sky!

Encompassing the Fallen Spirit Demon at its center.

Rumble...

The ground began to tremble.

The shattered stones on the ground started to float slowly with the vibration.

And then came the suction.

An extremely terrifying, incredibly powerful pulling force spread outward, centered on the beam, originating from the Fallen Spirit Demon!

"Ah... ahhhh!!"

The humans closest to the spot, small as ants, were pulled from the ground and sucked toward the beam, vanishing within it with a sizzle.

Meanwhile, Lord Lan slowly raised his head, looking at the cloud-filled sky.

It’s close... so close...

...

Qian Guxing was fleeing.

Desperately fleeing.

She didn’t even know where she should run, just following the crowd, aimlessly following to escape.

She was like a helpless child, unaware of what to do, knowing nothing, just mimicking others, like the flock following blindly, without a single independent opinion.

"Help me... help me... someone help me..."

Qian Guxing cried as she ran, but her cries were drowned out by the surrounding chaotic screams, cries for help, shrieks, explosions, and more chaotic sounds, with no one paying attention.

"Diao Deyi... Diao Deyi..."

As she ran, Qian Guxing wiped her tears, but the young man from her dreams, the one who would come to rescue her on a gallant horse, was nowhere to be seen.

The dream-like scenes were in sharp contrast with the chaotic and brutal reality of people trampling over each other to escape.

Qian Guxing’s cries grew louder, but all she could do was run, nonstop.

In the distance, she seemed to see the city gate.

Whether it was the east gate or the south gate, Qian Guxing no longer knew.

All she knew was, if she did not continue to escape, if she stopped running, she would end up like those beneath her feet, screaming, trampled by the crowd, never to rise again and escape.

"Ahhhhh! Ahhhhhh!!"

"Why... why is this happening to me... why!"

"Even though, even though I’ve already suffered so much... even though I’ve lost everything..."

"Father... father... save me..."

Qian Guxing cried loudly, her cry seemed to drown the surrounding noise, but it was just her own illusion, only she could hear her overpowering cry amidst the cacophony.

From the battle of the monsters to the downfall of the ancestor, everything happened so quickly.

Qian Guxing didn’t even understand how the battle had reached this point, just suddenly seeing the crowd give up resisting the demons in panic, turning to flee, she only then reacted, fleeing with them.

What should I do?

What does the future hold?

Will I die here?

I don’t know.

Don’t know anything!

Even though she felt utterly exhausted, somehow, she found the strength, her strides widened, her pace quickened, slowly surpassing those around her, advancing to the forefront of the crowd.

Want to live! Want to live! Want to live!!!

With heavy breathing, large strides, something seemed to sound behind her.

Qian Guxing didn’t dare turn back, fearing that if she did, she would lose her determination, her strength drained completely, unable to move anymore.

But as she ran with increasing difficulty, feeling as if someone was tugging at her, she realized the horrible screaming behind her was getting closer, and closer.

A fear-stricken emotion flooded her heart.

Qian Guxing turned her head slightly, and couldn’t help but have her pupils shrink.

In the distance behind her, a towering light beam, like a gluttonous maw, was endlessly devouring everything around, like a dark void in the sky, needing the surroundings to fill its void.

The lengthy escaping line of people now seemed like chopped pepper fish heads, only she and the ones at the head were still desperately escaping, while those across the rear, whether lying down trampled or those trailing slowly behind, were being sucked into the light beam, unable to gain footing.

The screams, the cries, stretched and distorted, becoming unsettling and frightening.

Turning back, Qian Guxing started sprinting.

She didn’t know where the strength came from, just running, just running, continuously running!

Already unable to surpass others anymore, because the people beside her, under the life-threatening pressure, burst out with astonishing speed.

Everyone’s speed was increasing, only the city gate ahead was getting closer, and ever closer!

Qian Guxing thought she saw a group of people standing at the gate, some dressed in the Underworld’s uniforms, but she didn’t recognize them.

Or rather, in her frantic escape, she had no time to see clearly who these people were.

Just from the voices that came from that group, it was clear these people had no idea what was happening in Tianyuan Town now.

"What happened? What happened in Tianyuan Town?"

"Why are you fleeing? What was that pulling people into the air just now?"

"Speak! Tell us what’s happening!!"

Clueless...

People who are clueless... should just shut up!!!

Qian Guxing nearly clenched her teeth, roaring in her heart.
