Episode 16 The Sea of Stars and Mist Chapter 29 Can’t Walk Away!
“Trap!”
Linley felt chills rise from the bottom of his heart.
“What a big lie!” Linley felt chills run down his spine.
Lower Gods, Middle Gods, and Upper Gods were 100 victorious, and those who were generally able to be 100 victorious. Those were the ones with high potential. There was some special ground! And they waited until they were in this Hantisai Castle still needed to go through experience. Determined to be very promising, it was estimated that they would stay, otherwise they would be expelled.
“Anyone who stays. All have potential.”
“Not true! If that’s the case. What about Di Lin’s explanation?” Based on this series of circumstances, already Di Lin and Tarosha had chosen the Bagshaw family’s side in the first place, Linley decided that Di Lin was similarly controlled.
Immediately, Linley’s mind guessed a possibility-
“It’s not just the ones who pass the test that are going to be soul-controlled. Even those who didn’t pass the test. I’m afraid that they will also be soul-controlled. It’s just a matter of arranging for a henchman to take control.” Linley understood that those who were able to overcome a hundred. Which one of them was bad?
This centaur. Naturally, more was better.
Linley thought from the point of view of the Handyside Fortress Lord. Instantly, he understood: ”The so-called test is presumably grading. Judging the level of strength of the target and what strong person needs to be sent to control it.” The stronger the strength, the harder it was to implant the soul seed.
For a seven star demon like Lomu, it was even harder to control.
“Me and Lomu. Didn’t test it at all, that means …… it’s most likely by that fortress lord. That is, Lord ‘Commander’ will personally deal with us.” Linley thought of this. Couldn’t help but shudder. Seeing as there were a good number of red-robed elders in that Tearloe Island.
In this Hantisai Castle. There were six-star demons and seven-star demons as well.
“Even seven star demons can be easily controlled, that Lord Commander’s strength?” Linley’s brows furrowed as that fortress lord was able to control seven-star demons. It meant one thing – this fortress lord, was very strong in the area of souls.
And what one feared the most –
It was strong people who specialized in soul attacks!
“I’m afraid I won’t be able to fight back at all. I’m afraid I won’t be able to resist at all. Is it possible to use the power of the Lord God?” Linley immediately recalled that patriarch ‘Bao Kewei’ possessed the power of a Destructive Lord God, “This fortress master is obviously the real big shot of the Bagshaw clan. Even Bao Ke Wei has the power of a Lord God, how could this Fort Master not have it?”
“To be able to make Tearloe Island, stand in hell. This Fort Master’s strength is definitely not something I can resist the streets.”
Linley immediately had a judgment in his mind-
“Escape!”
It was imperative to flee!
Linley turned his head and glanced at the window, that Ganmontin was resting inside the house at the moment, and now that the Earth Ganmontin only had a Water God doppelganger left, it would be very easy for Linley to kill Ganmontin.
“Can’t kill! Once we kill him, we’ll draw attention to ourselves instead, and we’ll definitely be watched closely. I’ll have to leave. It’ll be difficult.” Linley thought about all of this, so how could he wait here to die?
Run for your life earlier!
“Count yourself lucky.” Linley glanced at the window. Immediately, he executed the Earthwalking Technique to merge into the ground.
Speculating on these messages, Linley himself was in a state of shock, based on the things he knew now …… this deduction was ninety nine percent true! And regardless of whether or not that expert engagement floating shadow is really there, there can no longer be left behind!
Being controlled by the soul seed. That is worse than death!
Nearly forty meters high on the city floor. There are a large number of black armor warriors patrolling, and occasionally there are black armor, red cloak warriors in it. The severity of their guard was beyond anything Linley had ever seen.
The black-armored warriors were all silent, not daring to say anything.
However, the black-armored, red-cloaked warriors conversed occasionally, seemingly relaxed.
“Whenever someone from Hundred Victory is sent in. Even we all have to come over and patrol together.” These two red-cloaked warriors talked and laughed as they walked.
“Actually, we’re here because we found someone escaping. Just out to catch it. The ones who are really monitoring …… aren’t us guys. Rather, it’s that thing.” One of the red-cloaked warriors pointed at the castle core.
“You mean the Elemental Heart?”
“Of course. This Water Elemental Heart holds up endless seawater, and if someone dares to step out of the area boundaries, the Water Elemental Heart will easily notice. When the time comes, we’ll just strike.” These patrolling ground warriors were relaxed.
Trying to secretly escape out was impossible!
Forcibly escaping? It also depended on whether or not they were strong enough. If you have the strength. These patrolling fighters are just sending them to their deaths.
Suddenly…
The tall city wall lit up with a seven-colored light, and the seven-colored light also trembled twice, and all the patrolling warriors immediately woke up.
“Someone is trying to escape!”
Dozens of warriors wearing black armor and red cloaks were in the vicinity. They directly flew up and rushed out towards the place that caused the fluctuation. They clearly realized that a person had emerged from that impact-
Linley in a red robe!
“Heavens, there’s a giant magic formation on a city wall that’s dozens of miles in circumference? And it seems to contain energies of various systems?” Linley’s mouth was bitter as he looked at the seven-colored glowing magic patterns flickering on the walls of the tall city wall in front of him.
There was no escape.
A large number of black-armored warriors were staring at this at the moment. Many powerful people clad in red cloaks were also flying overhead.
“Red cloaked elders?” These red cloaked powerhouses were startled. Immediately, one of them said in a loud voice. “Dare to escape? Hmph!”
Linley looked at the group of red-cloaked warriors before him. Previously, during the inspection, Linley had once seen a red-cloaked warrior strike, almost at the level of a six-star demon, “A group of six-star demons?” Linley laughed bitterly in his heart.
Forced escape. It wouldn’t work.
“Me. Bagshaw Clan red-cloaked elder Linley! I have something important to go back to immediately, and I didn’t want to disturb you all. Now you all might as well get out of the way and let me return to Tearloe Island first.” Linley said aloud.
The leader of one of those red-cloaked warriors said indifferently, “Oh, Elder Linley? The rule of my Hantisai Castle land is. Unless we receive an order. Otherwise no outsiders will be let go.”
“I have important matters!” Linley said angrily.
“Please, Elder Linley. Wait a moment.” One of these red-cloaked warriors said, “If you force yourself to leave, you can’t blame us.” One of these red-cloaked warriors didn’t want to make a move when they saw that it was a red-robed elder from the Bagshaw Clan.
This was because the red-robed elder was a seven-star demon.
Once the battle started, a group of them might be able to win by sheer numbers, but they would definitely win miserably as well.
Linley’s heart was troubled, “Neither soft nor hard will do, if I force my way in, I guess a large number of strong people will pop up throughout the castle land.”
“Linley, why are you in a hurry to leave?” A familiar voice rang out, and Linley turned around to look. Only to see that red-armored, red-cloaked white-haired old man flying over. It was none other than the powerful man called ‘You Lai’.
You Lai looked at Linley with a smile, “Linley, you haven’t gone to the first chamber yet.”
“Mr. You Lai.” Linley said evenly, “I couldn’t help it, I just received a soul transmission from my servant. It’s really important, I had to leave, as for this first secret room, why don’t. I’ll come back tomorrow.”
“Oh?” You Rai frowned.
“That’s right too.” You Lai laughed. “Since you really do have something important to do, Linley, love ……”
Linley’s heart hung in the air.
“I can’t force myself to stay. However, the matter of your arrival. I’ve already informed the fortress lord, and I don’t have the authority to let you leave without authorization. In that case, you can wait here for a moment first. I’ll go inform the fort master. I believe. The Burgomaster will not make things difficult for you.” You Lai laughed.
“Then I’ll trouble Mr. You Lai.” Linley said.
You Lai smiled faintly and flew off first.
Linley’s face sank as well, “Still going to invite the Fort Master? Some trouble!” Linley glanced around, there were dozens of red-cloaked powerhouses staring at his special citadel around him. There were also a large number of black-armored warriors watching.
“This Handyside Castle, why are there so many experts?” Linley was helpless.
In the original Earthly Emperor Wing Castle, six-star demons were rare, and as for seven-star demons they were usually almost invisible. Hidden in various parts of hell, but in this Handisai Castle, there were a bunch of six-star demons, and quite a few seven-star demons, and there was even a seemingly even stronger ‘Castle Master’.
For a moment-
“Eh?” Linley’s face changed.
Only to see it in the distance. Three red-armored, red-cloaked powerhouses led by You Lai flew in parallel, accompanied by a black-robed powerhouse called ‘Lomu’!
“Red armor, red cloak? The other two are about the same status as Yurai, so I guess they are preventing me from escaping, right? What’s the point of bringing Lomu here?” Linley was puzzled in his heart. Lomu, however, had a rare smile on his face.
“Mr. You Lai, is there any news?” Linley said in a loud voice.
You Lai and the other three as well as Lomu fell together, and that You Lai even laughed, “Good news, good news, Fort Master, he’s really looking out for you, Linley.”
Linley was stunned. His own guess was wrong? That Fort Master was kind enough to let himself leave?
“The fort master knows that you have something important going on, Linley. So he promised to let you and Lomu, go to the first secret room right now! This going to the first secret room. Using divine sense to observe the floating shadows, that’s extremely fast.” You Lai laughed.
Linley’s expression couldn’t help but freeze.
“Linley you can even wait for me here. There’s still time to go to the first secret room and quickly use your divine sense to watch something, right?” You Lai laughed, and the other two red-armored, red-cloaked powerhouses also laughed and stared at Linley.
However, Linley was creeped out by their stares.
“Good. Just go watch some first.” Linley could only respond.
You Lai instantly laughed, and the three of them immediately led Linley and Lomu towards the core of the Hantisai Castlelands, which was crisscrossed with roads and patrolling guards everywhere. Outsiders were afraid that it would be difficult to move an inch. But following You Lai and the others. Linley was naturally unhindered.
“Lomu. You also have to thank Linley, if it wasn’t for him. I’m afraid you guys won’t be able to go to the secret room until tomorrow.” You Lai laughed.
Lomu, however, had a rare smile. It was clear that he was about to go watch a large number of Jedi powerhouses battle against each other on the floor of the Floating Shadow. It was also putting him in a good mood.
“Linley. It’s rare for the fortress master to advance especially for you.” You Lai also said to Linley.
“Right. I also have to thank the Fort Master properly.” Linley said with his mouth but in his heart, he was cursing. That fortress lord hadn’t pressed his goodwill towards himself at all. Walking along this way. Linley also paid attention to his surroundings.
But the further to the core. But the further to the core you go, the stricter the patrols become. And there are three other powerful people around himself.
Escape?
Difficult!
“Wow!” The door carved with arcane magical patterns was opened, revealing a carpeted corridor with a large number of bas-reliefs on both sides of the corridor, and Linley and the others followed this corridor until they reached the end.
Linley didn’t have the heart to appreciate the reliefs.
The end of the corridor is the hall, that You Lai walked to the side of the hall next to the fireplace opened a mysterious wide channel. The passageway, which was made up of blood-red ores, emitted a palpitating deathly aura.
“How mysterious.” Linley frowned.
That Lomu also frowned. A silver-haired woman beside You Lai smiled faintly and said, “It’s natural for this place that hides the Floating Shadow to be more secretive. The two of you can just follow.” Said. She went in first.
Linley and Lomu naturally followed. You Lai and the other person were at the end.
At the end of the underground passage. At the entrance of the blood-colored door with black patterned edges, several people stopped.
“Teacher. Lomu and Linley have arrived.” Yurai said respectfully, and the other two bowed.
Lomu lifted an eyebrow, “There’s someone else inside?”
“Such an important place. Of course it’s guarded.” You Lai explained with a smile. Linley, on the other hand, narrowed his eyes slightly. Secretly, he said, “It seems that this so-called ‘teacher’ is the fortress master.”
“Good. Let Lomu enter the secret room to watch first.” A low and gentle voice came from inside the door. At that moment, the door also slightly opened a slit. A gap large enough for a person to enter.
“Lomu. Go in.” The three Yurai looked to Lomu.
Lomu was bold in his art. He was the first to step into it, but Linley let out a dark sigh. Even his divine sense transmitted, “Liao Miao, be careful, the people in the interior of this secret room. I’m afraid he’ll come down hard on you, watch out for his soul attacks.”
Lomu gave Linley a surprised look, but then smiled but still went in.
“Whether it’s true or not, thanks! If someone really did do it, I couldn’t be happier.” Lomu’s voice resounded in Linley’s mind. The person, however, had already entered the door.
“Boom!” The door closed once more.
