Chapter 1021: Incident (Part 2)

The Heavenfall Annihilation Formation shattered with a resounding explosion. Everyone was blasted apart, scattering across the area and landing near the gates of the Heavenly Hall.

Instinctively, everyone prioritized swallowing pills to recover their energy. Only after that did they scramble toward the hall.

The barrier surrounding the Heavenly Hall had fully restored itself after half a month of repairs. As long as they made it inside the barrier, they would be safe. Those who reacted quickly surged forward, several making it inside in an instant.

Amalia pulled herself up, ignoring her depleted spiritual energy reserves. She immediately rushed toward Kenny Lin.

As the formation’s core, Kenny Lin was sure to have suffered the worst backlash when the array broke.

When Kenny Lin opened his eyes, he saw Amalia rushing toward him. His gaze fixed on her, but his handsome face suddenly twisted with fear.

"Watch out!" he shouted.

A cultivator who had been lying on the ground suddenly leaped up right in front of Amalia. With a vicious expression, he wrapped his arms tightly around her waist and lunged off the Heavenly Hall’s steps, dragging her down with him.

The two of them tumbled down the staircase, rolling to the ground below, where the wandering spirits were closing in fast.

Exhausted and drained of spiritual energy, Amalia couldn’t react in time. As they fell, her head slammed hard against one of the solid stone steps.

Dazed and disoriented, she caught a glimpse of the cultivator who had attacked her. His face contorted into a savage snarl as he glared down at her.

The cultivator’s sudden action was so abrupt that no one could react in time.

Everyone had been drained of their spiritual energy, leaving them powerless to intervene.

By the time Jirandai Tang and the others heard the commotion, all they could see was a streak of light racing down the steps at an unimaginable speed. The figure itself was indiscernible, leaving behind only a radiant flash.

As the streak of light shot out, a black sun radiating a suffocating aura of death surged from the direction of the plaza.

The black glow engulfed the heavens and earth, turning the once-bright sky into an eerie darkness, shrouded in an ominous atmosphere.

"Not good!" Jirandai Tang’s expression changed drastically when he saw Kenny Lin directly confront the most powerful attack of over a dozen Body Integration stage wandering spirits. He dashed forward, but it was too late.

Amalia had just crushed a human cultivator when she turned her head and saw Kenny Lin’s figure swallowed by the black sun. Her heart felt as though an invisible hand had gripped it tightly. "No...!"

Amalia staggered to her feet, her eyes bloodshot, and without a moment’s hesitation, she rushed forward, throwing herself into the fray.

Yet the black sun did not explode. Its violent radiance stopped expanding, and in the next moment, it condensed into a single black dot before vanishing completely.

Kenny Lin and Amalia both fell from the air, only to be caught by the rushing Jirandai Tang and Taeseon Lei.

Kenny Lin’s condition was far more severe than Amalia’s. While Amalia only coughed up a mouthful of black blood, Kenny Lin was drenched in his own blood.

A large mouthful of blood spewed from his lips, mixed with fragments of what seemed to be internal organs.

"Go!" Kenny Lin managed to choke out a single word with all the strength he had left.

Amalia’s veins bulged on her forehead as she suppressed her pain. Ignoring her own injuries, she lifted him without hesitation, and the group of four charged into the Heavenly Hall.

The wandering spirits roared and attacked, but the barrier of the Heavenly Hall held firm. It wavered slightly but quickly stabilized, leaving the wandering spirits fuming with frustration.

Over a dozen Body Integration stage wandering spirits stood before the Heavenly Hall, their eyes burning red with rage.

They had been so close—just one step away from capturing the human cultivators. Yet now, their efforts had been for naught.

To re-enter the hall, the wandering spirits would need to use a token to activate the barrier, but they lacked the requisite tokens. Even with all their strength, it would take two to three days to breach it. However, they knew that in mere moments, the human cultivators would leave the Path of All Immortals altogether.

Shortly after Amalia and the others dashed into the Heavenly Hall, the Path of All Immortals began to undergo spatial changes.

An overwhelming force, so powerful that it left no room for resistance, swept over everyone, plunging their vision into darkness.

When light returned, they found themselves outside the Path of All Immortals.

Elders from various sects, who had been waiting outside, immediately showed relief upon seeing their juniors emerge. Those who didn’t see their own sect members, however, wore grim expressions.

The Path of All Immortals had a strict time limit, transporting everyone out simultaneously. No more than 60 breaths would elapse between the first and last teleportation. If someone hadn’t appeared after 60 breaths, it meant they would never return.

"Everyone’s back?" Tan Kai glanced at Renshu Chang and the others, who had been teleported out first, unconcerned about Jirandai Tang’s group.

A dozen breaths later, Amalia and the remaining three were also transported out.

Seeing the gravely injured Kenny Lin being supported by the group, Tan Kai’s face darkened. In an instant, he teleported in front of them.

"What happened?"

Tan Kai immediately took out several pills and fed them to Kenny Lin.

Jirandai Tang’s face was also grim as he gave a brief explanation: "We entered the Immortal Spring within the Immortal Palace and were pursued by a group of Body Integration stage wandering spirits. Amalia and Kenny Lin used the Heavenfall Annihilation Formation to help us escape. Unexpectedly, one of the cultivators turned on us at the last moment. Martial uncle ended up like this because he was trying to save us."

Although Kenny Lin’s true intention was to save Amalia, in their eyes, his actions also shielded everyone else. Had he not intercepted that wandering spiritsl’s strike, they too would have been caught in the aftermath.
