Chapter 234
Entering the Palace
The young lady's waist was as slender as bamboo. Zhuowen took the opportunity to pull her into his embrace with his right hand.
With a soft fragrance in his embrace, Zhuowen's mind should have been enchanting. However, he did not have the slightest intention of doing so. The reason was that after being delayed by the young lady, the monstrous lightning sea in the distance was already close at hand. In the blink of an eye, it would devour Zhuowen.
"How unlucky!"
Gritting his teeth, Zhuowen patted his Qiankun bag and took out the Nine-wheel Burning Sky Cauldron. With a wave of his right hand, he summoned it.
Buzz buzz!
A clear buzzing sound was transmitted from within the cauldron. The Nine-wheel Burning Sky Cauldron had a total of nine fire openings, which represented the positions of the nine types of Earth Flames. At this moment, two types of surging flames suddenly shot out from two of the fire openings.
One of the deep blue flames contained endless flashes of lightning in the center of the blazing flames. Lightning and fire intertwined to create an extremely aggressive explosive energy. It was the Nine Heavens Thunder Flame. The other type of green lotus flame was in full bloom. Thousands of green sparks floated down within five feet of the lotus. It was the Three Thousand Green Lotus Flame that he had exchanged with Elder Qiu and the young lady.
The two types of peerlessly powerful Earth Flames surged out, forming a sea of fire in the sky that was intertwined with lightning and green lotuses. It suddenly intercepted the incoming lightning sea.
Rumble!
The sea of lightning and the sea of fire collided. The surrounding air seemed to have evaporated. Everything within sight became completely distorted. Numerous muffled explosions exploded, causing deafening sounds to ring out.
In an instant, the sea of fire was suppressed by the lightning sea to the point that it continuously trembled. It was like a candle in the wind that could be extinguished at any moment.
Urgh!
A mouthful of blood was suddenly spat out. Zhuowen's face revealed a shocked expression. He did not expect that the Nine-wheel Burning Sky Array formed by two types of Earth Flames would be so forceful in front of the lightning sea.
The barefoot young lady in his embrace also regained her senses. She looked at the arm around her waist. Spots of cherry red appeared on her creamy skin and her snow-white face was incomparably red.
The barefoot young lady had never been in such close contact with someone of the opposite sex since she was young, let alone being hugged by a strange man. This caused the young lady to feel a trace of strangeness and embarrassment in her heart.
"You're too presumptuous!
Let me go, or you'll regret it. "
Due to the impact of the lightning sea from the doppelganger, the young girl's body had suffered serious injuries. At this moment, her entire body was limp and she couldn't exert any strength. Therefore, although she wanted to break free from Zhuowen's embrace, she couldn't.
Zhuowen's heart was also flustered as he gazed at the young lady squirming about in his arms. What kind of situation was it now? If they could not withstand the sea of lightning in front of them, both of them would die. How could they still care about such matters?
"Be quiet!
If you continue to struggle, both of us will die!
You'd better cooperate. "
At this moment, Zhuowen's expression was quite ugly. Now that they were at the point of life and death, he didn't care how great the girl's background was. He directly tightened his right hand and held the girl tightly in his arms.
At this moment, the girl's entire back was pressed against Zhuowen's chest. Her perky buttocks were pressed against Zhuowen's thighs, preventing the former from moving.
"You …" The young girl's exquisite face finally turned completely red, just like a ripe red apple. She didn't expect the young man in front of her to be so rough.
"You'll regret it!"
After coldly throwing down these words, the young girl didn't dare to move anymore. She was afraid that Zhuowen would do something out of line in order to stabilize her.
"Let's talk about it after we escape this calamity!
If we die, won't we have no chance to regret it? "
Zhuowen also coldly replied. At the same time, he tried his best to control the sea of fire in the sky, resisting the attack of the endless sea of lightning with great difficulty.
"Miss!"
In the distance, Qiu Lao looked at Zhuowen and the young girl, who were instantly covered by the sea of lightning. His expression changed drastically. With a loud cry, his feet stomped on the ground, and like an arrow leaving a bow, he suddenly shot towards the sea of lightning.
"Humph!"
The doppelganger naturally wouldn't let Qiu Lao do as he wished. With a cold snort, his mountain-like left hand, which was wrapped in endless lightning, suddenly blasted towards Qiu Lao.
Bang!
A ring-shaped air wave scattered in the air, causing Qiu Lao's expression to change. He had no choice but to turn around and block the doppelganger's attack. When the two of them exchanged blows, Qiu Lao let out a muffled groan without exception. His entire body flew backwards.
Rip!
The sound of cloth tearing suddenly sounded. Zhuowen, who was surrounded by the Nine Heavens Thunder Flame and the Three Thousand Jade Lotus Flame, had a drastic change in expression. The sea of fire above him was actually torn apart by the sea of lightning in an instant, revealing a large opening. After which, endless lightning surged in.
"Not good!
The Nine Wheel Burning Sky Array has been torn apart. Xiao Hei, why aren't you helping! "Looking at the surging sea of lightning, Zhuowen's pupils suddenly shrank, and he immediately shouted.
Once Zhuowen's words left his mouth, endless ink-black fog suddenly surged out from his body. The sea of lightning crashed into the ink-black fog with a loud explosion. However, it was like mud falling into the sea, and was actually completely corroded by the power of the fog.
"Brat, leave quickly!
I won't be able to hold on for long. "Xiao Hei's anxious voice suddenly sounded in his mind.
Hearing this, Zhuowen's gaze hardened. He hugged the young lady in his arms and stepped on the void. Like an arrow leaving the bow, he rushed towards the opening above the sea of lightning.
Outside the sea of lightning, Qiu Lao's eyes were filled with anger. He was fighting the doppelganger with all his might. He knew that if anything happened to the barefoot young lady, he would not be able to escape the huge responsibility. At that time, when the higher-ups blamed him, it was very likely that he would not be able to escape death. After all, the young lady's identity was too special.
"If Miss dies, I will completely destroy your cave mansion. Damn you, Immortal Fenglei!"
Qiu Lao stepped on the void, continuously using dazzling moves to attack the doppelganger, and he cursed rudely.
Rumble!
Just as Qiu Lao's voice fell, a loud sound suddenly sounded from not far away. He immediately turned his head to look, and a trace of disbelief suddenly appeared in his eyes.
This was because he saw that Zhuowen was carrying the young lady, and he suddenly tore through the sea of lightning's barrier. He was rushing towards the entrance of the palace at lightning speed.
"This brat can actually tear through the sea of lightning of the doppelganger. He is clearly only at the Human King Realm. How did he do it?" Qiu Lao was stunned for a moment, and he muttered to himself.
"The Imperial Palace is an important place. Do not enter without permission!"
Seeing that Zhuowen was approaching the Imperial Palace again, the doppelganger became violent again. He waved his huge right hand, and countless bolts of lightning swept out, shooting towards Zhuowen.
"Damn!
This guy is really like a ghost. Isn't it just entering the Imperial Palace?
Why is he so agitated?
Looks like I have to rely on that thing! "Looking at the bolts of lightning behind him, Zhuowen could not help but curse in a low voice.
After cursing a few times, Zhuowen suddenly patted his storage bag and took out a jade tablet. The word 'Teleport' was engraved in the middle of the jade tablet. This jade tablet was the 'Teleport Tablet' that Lin Xuanzhong had given him before he left.
Although this tablet was only a Middle Rank Spiritual Treasure, it had a unique teleportation ability. Its value had far exceeded that of a Middle Rank Spiritual Treasure, and it was completely comparable to a High Rank Spiritual Treasure.
After all, the effect of this tablet was to teleport to any place within a thousand feet in a day.
Thinking of this, Zhuowen suddenly formed a seal with both hands. Then, Yuan Power suddenly poured into the Teleport Tablet in his hand. The Teleport Tablet emitted a blazing light, and Zhuowen was wrapped in a ball of light. Then, Zhuowen directly disappeared from the spot.
When Zhuowen reappeared, he was already standing at the entrance of the palace.
At this moment, not only was Qiu Lao stunned, but even the illusory avatar was stunned. They did not expect the young man to be able to teleport. Subsequently, Qiu Lao and the illusory avatar stared blankly at the young man at the entrance. He took a step forward and disappeared from the entrance …
Qiu Lao was stunned for a while before he realized that the barefoot girl was still in Zhuowen's hands. He could not help but shout and wanted to follow behind Zhuowen into the palace. However, the Virtual Shadow Avatar naturally would not let Qiu Lao pass so easily.
Boom!
The Virtual Shadow Avatar only needed one punch to push Qiu Lao back. Under the powerful attack of the Virtual Shadow Avatar, Qiu Lao could only temporarily avoid the attack. He looked at the palace behind him with a slightly unwilling gaze.
After entering the palace, there was a rather deep passageway. After entering, Zhuowen let out a sigh of relief. Just as he was about to speak, a jade-like hand suddenly appeared in front of him. Then, the jade-like hand viciously slammed onto Zhuowen's chest.
Caught off guard, Zhuowen was instantly hit by the jade-like hand. With a 'wah' sound, he spat out a mouthful of blood. He leaned against the wall and looked coldly at the girl in front of him.
"Finally willing to let go?"
The girl waved her jade-like hand. Her jade-like foot stepped on the red lotus and slowly floated into the air. She looked coldly at the young man in front of her. In the depths of her beautiful eyes, there was even a trace of killing intent.
When she thought about how the young man in front of her had actually rudely hugged her delicate body, the girl's heart was already filled with shame and anger. If it was not for the fact that the situation was critical, she would not have just sent out a simple palm. She would have directly taken the young man's life.
"Cough cough!"
The girl's internal injuries were clearly very serious. After breaking free from Zhuowen, she actually coughed out another mouthful of blood. Her delicate body trembled slightly and collapsed against the wall of the passageway. She looked at the young man in front of her rather cautiously.
Shrugging his shoulders, Zhuowen looked somewhat helplessly at the girl in front of him. Then, he patted his Qiankun bag and took out an emerald-colored elixir. He threw it to the girl and said, "You're still trying to be brave after suffering such serious injuries?
This elixir is called the Soul Nurturing Elixir. It is refined from the Grade 9 Soul Nurturing Grass. It should be able to alleviate your injuries to a certain extent. "
After receiving the Soul Nurturing Elixir, the girl frowned slightly. Her eyes flickered, but she did not eat the elixir. Instead, she stared straight at Zhuowen in front of her.
"You don't need to look at me like that!
Your death does not benefit me at all. To be able to have an Emperor Realm expert as a bodyguard, your identity is clearly not ordinary. If you die here, even if I obtain the treasures here, I'm afraid that I won't be able to leave the cave!
After all, the Emperor Realm elder outside will not let me go. "Zhuowen spread out his hands and said in a somewhat hoodlum manner.
Hearing these words, the girl's eyes finally moved. She coldly said, "Then I'll believe you this once!"
