Chapter 1180: Search for Hope

Ao Xiaowu didn’t want to fight, and An Lin and Xu Xiaolan couldn’t do anything to convince her otherwise.

They didn’t continue to chase down Mei Gui Evil Dragon. After all, the Ancient Dragon Empress was still here, and they did not want to follow in the footsteps of Long Aotian.

The Ancient Dragon Empress and Mei Gui Evil Dragon quickly retreated toward the passageway between the two worlds.

“Master, what do we do now?” Xiao Ze flew overhead with a concerned expression.

The destruction of this world was irreversible, and no one was capable of mending the heavens here.

“Let’s go to the formation first and see just what type of passageway has opened up there.” An Lin did not give up hope.

“I’ll come too!” Long Aotian flew over to them.

“Alright, let’s go.” An Lin flew into the air atop his brick.

At this moment, a lazy and soft voice suddenly sounded.

“Wait, I’ll come as well.”

A woman in red stepped through the air before sitting down onto the brick with her legs tucked under her.

An Lin was a little surprised by this. “You’re not going to sleep?”

“Who doesn’t want to live? I want to fight for survival as well.” Ao Xiaowu was saying that she was going to fight for survival, but her voice was so feeble and faint that there was no sense of security imparted by her words.

However, An Lin and the others were reinvigorated by her words.

In this world, Ao Xiaowu was the most powerful being aside from the Ancient Dragon Empress! Her decision to accompany everyone had ignited a sliver of hope in everyone’s heart amid the despair!

Thus, An Lin, Xu Xiaolan, Xiao Ze, Long Aotian, and Ao Xiaowu all followed the Ancient Dragon Empress and the other evil dragon mighty figures toward the passageway.

Winds of chaos were blowing as a result of the destruction of this world, and they were powerful enough to blow a Return to Void Stage mighty figure to death.

As such, An Lin and the others had to exercise the utmost caution in order to prevent themselves from being swept into oblivion.

Within the formation, the circular ring of light exuded extremely powerful spatial fluctuations.

One evil dragon after another leaped into it en route to their new world.

The five top-tier mighty figures present—Athena, Poseidon, Hades, Ao Meng, and Ao Qingyu— were all extremely dejected.

Not only them, but the other Return to Void Stage mighty figures as well as the Soul Formation Stage powerful beings were also extremely depressed; some of whom were even on the brink of mental breakdown. Some were still fighting in an enraged frenzy in order to vent their frustration and hatred, some were lamenting their imminent passing, and some were racking their brains, trying to think of a way to get out of this situation.

Huan Meng Evil Dragon, Du Ba Evil Dragon, and Wu Si Evil Dragon held everyone off with all their might, thereby allowing the weaker evil dragons to enter the spatial passageway.

All of them also began to retreat after that.

The battlefield outside the formation was in complete turmoil.

This wasn’t just the battlefield for the top-tier mighty figures anymore, there were now also many Return to Void Stage mighty figures and Soul Formation Stage powerful beings gathered here.

“Maybe we’ll be able to access the spatial passageway too!” a Dragon Tribe mighty figure roared.

“Let’s combine our forces and break in!” Many Dragon Tribe powerful beings heeded the mighty figure’s call.

At the rate that this world was crumbling, they wouldn’t be able to wait until they were summoned back to their original world. The spatial gate between the two worlds decided when they would be summoned back, so they couldn’t go back in advance.

It looked like their only glimmer of hope lay in the evil dragons’ spatial passageway.

Boom!

Another massive hole was blasted into the formation by Hades.

Ao Qingyu also unleashed a devastating sword strike to inflict a massive gash into the formation, which almost sliced the barrier materialized by the formation in half.

The spatial passageway had already been opened, so it didn’t really matter if the core formation was destroyed or not. Its only real function now was to keep the destructive power of the crumbling world at bay, as well as to defend against enemy attacks.

As one top-tier mighty figure after another unleashed enraged attacks upon it, the formation gradually collapsed.

Most of the ninety-nine mountains from which the pillars of light emanated had also been razed to the ground.

However, none of this would amount to anything.

The passageway between the two worlds had already been opened, so the destruction of this world was unavoidable unless there was someone capable of mending the heavens here.

Nuwa was capable of mending the heavens, but there wasn’t even a Dao Integration Stage super mighty figure here, let alone Nuwa.

On the chaotic battlefield.

Some Dragon Tribe cultivators managed to charge through and make it to the spatial passageway.

“This passageway should be available for all Dragon Tribe cultivators to use, not just evil dragons! We’ll definitely be able to pass through it!” a Soul Formation Stage cultivator offered words of consolation and encouragement to themself as they jumped in.

Their body had only just made contact with the white ring of light below when they let loose a bloodcurdling cry.

“Ah… Save me!”

The Soul Formation Stage powerful being’s body was quickly broken down, as if they had jumped into a high-frequency meat shredder. Their entire body was ground down into tiny particles before disappearing.

All of the Soul Formation Stage powerful beings following along were scared sh*tless.

This wasn’t some passageway to survival, this was a canyon to suicide!

No wonder there weren’t any evil dragons stationed around the spatial passageway. Why would they try to stop their enemies from jumping to their deaths?

All of the Soul Formation Stage powerful beings had completely given up on entering the spatial passageway.

However, the Return to Void Stage mighty figures were still tempted. What if the Soul Formation Stage powerful being had only perished due to not being powerful enough? If they could keep the power within the spatial passageway at bay, wouldn’t they be able to enter it with no problems?

A Western Dragon Forest Return to Void Stage mighty figure flew into the air directly above the spatial passageway and was hesitating about what to do.

However, the mighty figure finally made up their mind and let loose an almighty roar at the sight of the approaching Ancient Dragon Empress. “I’m willing to lay down my life for the Western Dragon Forest and carve out a path to survival!”

Death was unavoidable either way, so they might as well take a gamble!

Otherwise, once the Ancient Dragon Empress arrived, they wouldn’t even have a chance to enter the spatial passageway anymore.

Thus, the Return to Void Stage mighty figure unleashed their spatial power to enshroud their entire body before leaping into the white spatial passageway as all of the Dragon Tribe cultivators looked on with rapt attention.

And then… the Dragon Tribe mighty figure’s bloodcurdling cries reverberated throughout heaven and earth!

The peculiar power of the passageway between the two worlds pulverized the Dragon Tribe mighty figure’s spatial power before grinding their body down to its tiniest constituent particles…

The Dragon Tribe mighty figure struggled for their life, but the spatial passageway seemed to possess a peculiar suction force, which it exerted upon cultivators from the other Dragon Tribes, as if it were a lethal realm of quicksand.

Thus, the Dragon Tribe mighty figure died a gruesome death right before everyone’s eyes.

This scene was simply too traumatic to everyone, and all of the dragons present gave up on any ideas about leaping into the spatial passageway.

Many of the Dragon Tribe powerful beings were already in despair as they simply didn’t know what to do.

Some of the powerful beings were still engaged in battle, venting their despair and frustration on the evil dragons.

“I didn’t want to see such a sad scene as soon as I arrived.” An Lin held on tightly to Xu Xiaolan’s warm and soft hand with a tense expression on his face.

He couldn’t think of a way to get out of this predicament for now.

“Hahaha… Mr. An Lin, I didn’t think you would survive up to this point after encountering that terrifying woman! That’s very impressive!” Xiao Tu seemed to be in high spirits.

“Senior, we’re all about to die, and you’re still this happy?” An Lin’s expression darkened.

“I’ll be fine.” Xiao Tu waved a claw. “I have many resurrection trump cards. Perhaps I’ll die here only to be revived at another sacrificial altar.”

An Lin: “…”

Everyone: “…”

Everyone was suddenly struck by the impulse to bash Xiao Tu to death.
