YM778.TV Chapter 971 Things Went Wrong!
"I need to edit it again," he inwardly sighed when he spotted dozens of little flaws that made the end result not quite satisfying for him, "I need to deal a single blow towards that monster, as we\'ll only have one chance to take it down, or at least weaken it…"
He thought to himself, before finally gathering the last bit of released techniques. "Retreat! Retreat now!" he knew once the order was given, he\'d be all alone in the middle of an ocean of monsters.
He already gulped two elixirs together, and pushed himself beyond his limits. Then he pushed with everything he got, dashed madly forward before finally couldn\'t handle the pressure.
It felt like his body was getting torn in different places by sharp blades. And even his bones started to issue cracks as if he was carrying an entire mountain on his back!
The moment he couldn\'t take it anymore, he released the technique. And then he didn\'t look back, turned around, and dashed madly towards the hills and small mountains.
He didn\'t forget to gulp one elixir bottle while retreating, helping him in releasing more power and travel faster. Yet the insane speed he had before was gone, and he couldn\'t dash more than one kilometre every time.
But he wasn\'t worried. Last time he got distracted by what the technique did. And this round he didn\'t need to even watch it using his spirit sense. He knew what was going to happen, and knew this technique would take a few minutes to show off its true might.
During these minutes, he dashed madly toward the tunnel\'s direction. The army of masters was already inside the caves, leaving only Sloth and a few selected masters of his gang watching.
They feared he might not be able to make it in time, and thought about being out there to help. Seeing them from afar made William shout: "Go inside! Go inside dammit! Do you want to die or what?!!" he knew if they got hit, they\'d age and decay, ending up in bones!
"Just move your ass here!" Sloth shouted back, but he and others turned into the tunnels and vanished. They knew he was going to make it. And yet this time it was a bit different.
As he perfected the technique more than before, the explosion happened quite faster this time. Just before he\'d reached the closest tunnel, he ended up getting smashed by that fierce attack, ending up flying in the air, missing the entire tunnel area!
He felt the same as before, sounds vanished, lights became blindly brighter, and his body flew in the air like a broken kit in the wind. He landed and crashed fiercely against the ground, feeling the same immense pain as before.
He knew he missed the safe tunnels, and hoped he wasn\'t going to die. Even before he\'d landed, he took out a healing elixir and emptied its content without a single moment of hesitation. He hoped the wounds he\'d suffer at the end weren\'t that severe, or life threatening.
He waited for one whole hour this time. The explosion lasted much longer, and that was enough evidence that it was on a much higher might than the first attempt.
"It\'s indeed much better, but not enough," when he could see everything around, he checked the world and all he saw was a brutal scene of destruction all over the place.
Even the hills and mountains didn\'t escape the damage that landed here! They got lots of their parts flattened, ending up looking as if they got severe and deep wounds. Even many hills vanished, without leaving a trace but a huge pile of decayed rocks and dust.
As for himself, he didn\'t suffer a single wound! He felt immense pain and moved with extreme difficulty, but even his inner organs were intact. Aside from the pain, he was fine.
He thought the healing elixir he consumed before was the reason for him to end up like this. And he thought the pain he was feeling was what got left from all the wounds he suffered. He never guessed that such pain came originally from the scary amount of spirit power his body absorbed after getting hit by that attack.
His spirits were evolving, merging together using this pure and highly concentrated form of spirit power. As he was fine, he endured the pain and left the place he landed at. He was at least ten kilometres far from the place of others and had to cross this on foot without using any of his techniques.
The world was peaceful and quiet right now, with tons of dead monsters lying on the ground till the end of his eyesight. He stretched his spirit sense and tried to see if he could get what was happening in the tunnels and caves.
What he saw was just rocks! All the tunnels were gone, and there wasn\'t a single opening out there anymore. He wasn\'t worried as he knew there were earth-based masters in every cave, and they were enough to dig tunnels again.
He felt lucky to have such experienced masters by his side, ones who put much consideration into the matter and made preparations earlier on.
Or else things would have looked much worse than now. He waited for one hour and got to contact his friends and Sloth using Bullets, making sure they were all ok and didn\'t suffer any harm.
They were all deadly worried about his safety. The moment they heard his voice and they all cheered and shouted in celebration. The moment the world came on them, with the blinding light first then pitch darkness later on, they felt worried and bad about him.
