Chapter 930 - 930 178 Force Breakthrough
930: Chapter 178: Force Breakthrough 930: Chapter 178: Force Breakthrough “Huff, huff, huff…”Chu Mi panted heavily, turning into a semi-transparent figure and flying swiftly through the air, dodging the relentless barrage of spell attacks from behind.
The moment the Sea Clan’s army encircled the island, he had thought of escaping, but he also knew in his heart that escape was improbable.
The reason Ding Jingshan had Jiang Wang break through in such a secretive manner was to keep it hidden from others, to avoid affecting their morale.
Knowing there was more to the situation, he had secretly followed, using Jiang Wang, whom he believed to be an extraordinary figure, as his ticket to hitch a ride and escape from the Floating Island together.
After Fu Yanqing pulled him out, he had to abandon his pride to beg for his life.
He was very aware that Jiang Wang’s breakout, during the heat of the battle, had to be kept strictly confidential.
Thus, he had to either face military justice or prove his worth to live.
He chose to help Jiang Wang break out and was genuinely intent on assisting him.
For one thing, breaking out was risky, but compared to staying on the island to face the Sea Clan’s army, the chances of survival were somewhat greater.
Secondly, he truly wanted to form a connection with a figure as well-connected as Jiang Wang.
Only someone of that stature could help clear his name and keep him from having to stay in the accursed Lost World any longer.
He truly did not want to stay in the Lost World any longer, not even for a day!
Every day here, the first thing he did upon waking was to make sure he was still alive.
He desperately did not want to die, but in such a precarious place, how much longer could he live?
Even avoiding unnecessary battles by staying hidden on the Floating Island couldn’t guarantee safety.
Hadn’t the White Elephant King almost breached their defenses this time?
Therefore, Chu Mi was doing everything he could to help Jiang Wang escape, but when Yu Siqing blocked the Boundary River, it seemed all hope was lost.
Together, he and Jiang Wang weren’t a match for Yu Siqing.
Thus, he earnestly hoped Jiang Wang would avoid taking risks.
Jiang Wang unleashing the “Shadow Bag” and letting him go was beyond his expectations.
He was indeed grateful, but still decided to make a run for it.
The White Elephant King had surrounded the Floating Island, and Yu Siqing was hunting Jiang Wang, none of which targeted him personally.
With the “Shadow Bag” unlocked, the sky was his limit.
He could easily use his adept hiding skills to find a place to take cover and wait for the dust to settle before emerging.
Even if the Sea Clan ultimately triumphed, they would hardly exhaust their resources searching for an insignificant man like him in the uncharted regions.
Once the situation stabilized, there would always be a chance to escape.
Unfortunately, he had been found.
His stealth techniques were among the best on the entire Floating Island of Dingwei; aside from Fu Yanqing, he considered himself second to none.
Hiding for a few dozen days should have been no problem.
However, he had underestimated the Sea Clan’s determination and efforts to hunt down Jiang Wang.
The White Elephant King deployed an entire Sea Nest’s army, and under Yu Siqing’s command, they cast a terrifyingly large net.
Tragically, both he and Jiang Wang were caught in this net.
When that team of Sea Clan soldiers excitedly rushed over, and soon after, another Sea Clan combat squad appeared, he knew it was all over.
After struggling so hard to survive in the Lost World, scheming and deceiving to secure his continued existence, he was doomed to die here.
To die a nameless death.
This was undeniably saddening.
“Damn it!
Whoever doesn’t want me to live, I won’t let live either!”
As Chu Mi flew rapidly, he weighed his Storage Box, gritted his teeth, and prepared to fight desperately.
But the pursuing Sea Clan troops suddenly became disorganized, briefly looking puzzled, as if unsure whether to continue the chase.
Chu Mi didn’t know what had happened, but it didn’t stop him from seizing this opportunity to make a break, creating distance!
It was only then that the image of Jiang Wang crossed his mind.
That young man had simply opened the “Shadow Bag,” decisively turned around, and soared away on clouds.
Truly gallant and spirited.
Just like the heroic figures he had dreamed of becoming as a child.
Was it that boy who had been spotted?
Only that could explain why several of those hunting him had suddenly turned around.
They had been there to pursue Jiang Wang from the start, with him as their target all along.
Chu Mi was but a collateral fish affected by the gate fire…
Yet, Chu Mi’s mind spun another thought—was he really just an affected fish?
Concerning the soon-to-be-destroyed Dingwei area, who is merely passing through?
Is it him, who has been serving his sentence here for five years, or is it Jiang Wang, who arrived just a few days ago?
And who is striving for this Floating Island, and who is simply seeking to save himself?
He had seen that flawless Hidden Clothes, knowing that if it were just about saving oneself, Jiang Wang would have a much greater chance than he.
“I’m sorry.”
Despite infinite struggles, in the end, Chu Mi could only say this in his heart.
“I cannot die.”
He darted away.
…
…
After discarding a Shen King Pearl to create a distraction and draw the Sea Clan’s forces towards Chu Mi, Jiang Wang headed straight for the Boundary River.
The closed net could never expect that he, the fish, was already beyond its mesh.
No matter how tightly the net was closed, he was not within it.
As the controller of this net, Yu Siqing should have already gone to capture the “harvest”.
Both Chu Mi and the illusions created by the Shen King Pearl needed time to be verified.
This was the perfect moment for him to forcefully break through the Boundary River to another area of the Lost World.
Although he calculated everything clearly in his mind, before approaching the wall of flesh, Jiang Wang still used the Red Mirror for a careful inspection.
The terrifying and fierce wall of flesh blocked the seven-mile Boundary River solidly.
Within the view of the Red Mirror, only three Sea Clan squads were stationed above the wall of flesh, like guards on a tower.
Among these three Sea Clan squads, there were six Commander-level Sea Clan and twenty-four Battle General Level Sea Clan.
Spread across a seven-mile stretch, the defensive line was actually sparse.
Forcing any single point, at first, would only require confronting one Commander-level Sea Clan.
This defense intensity was far from enough to stop Jiang Wang, who had a track record of fighting against nine alone.
Probably, it was that wall of flesh that gave them full confidence.
Among them was an “old friend”, the Commander-level Sea Clan whose true form was a six-winged eighty-foot creature.
Jiang Wang remembered his incredible speed.
But he was merely a defeated foe, and Jiang Wang held a crushing psychological advantage over him.
Yu Siqing was not here…
There was no time to test the might of this wall of flesh any longer.
Once Chu Mi was captured and the illusion created by the Shen King Pearl was debunked, Yu Siqing would immediately realize that Jiang Wang hadn’t been caught.
With the caution he had shown, he would definitely return to support the Boundary River before conducting another sweep.
Jiang Wang pursed his lips, using the Red Mirror to observe as he slowly infiltrated.
Just before one of the Sea Clan’s line of sight could sweep over him, he suddenly drew his sword and rose!
Stepping on the Shattered Green Clouds, a sword swung in the twilight years, already charging towards the high wall of flesh, striking directly in front of his opponent!
The breakthrough point he chose was not the “old friend”, but the Commander-level Sea Clan who seemed to have the weakest aura.
Everything depended on the outcome.
He aimed to kill with one strike, then bridge and cross the river with the speed of lightning!
