Calamity of Tomorrow-Chapter 406 - 405 Escape and Return

Zhou Bai, while wasting time with Xiao Hun, had managed to accumulate a massive amount of Guihai Black Evil, which instantly severed the Primordial Spirit power that Xiao Hun left on him, and began to corrode Xiao Hun's Primordial Spirit power in all aspects.

However, Zhou Bai knew that with Xiao Hun's seventh realm strength, these Guihai Black Evils could only hinder him for a moment, so at that moment, he shouted to him, "Xiao Hun, lend me some points to use."

Xiao Hun, who was bursting with Primordial Spirit power and was about to force open the Guihai Black Evils, paused slightly: 'Has this Sword Spirit gone mad? Borrowing points from me now?'

But the next moment, he had forcefully stopped his initial action and reached into his pocket, thinking of taking out his point card.

Meanwhile, Zhou Bai took advantage of this instant, directly accelerated with Laziness, and flew out with a boom.

In the blink of an eye, erupting at seven times the speed of sound, the Free Gold Flying Sword already sliced through the sky, turning into an almost invisible black dot.

On the other side, after Xiao Hun took out his point card, he stepped forward and directly activated the Void Escape Technique, his entire figure suddenly disappeared then reappeared, having crossed the space, he chased directly after Zhou Bai.

With Xiao Hun's use of the Void Escape Technique, it was just like Instantaneous Movement, his speed completely surpassed simple flight. After several successive blinks, he had already caught up with Zhou Bai, reached out a grab, and his Primordial Spirit power transformed into a giant hand, already blocking in front of Zhou Bai.

Then he discovered that Zhou Bai had turned into a mosaic, making him burst into tears.

"What?"

This change into a mosaic directly made Xiao Hun grab at nothing, and Zhou Bai, like lightning, shot out and instantly darted another thousand meters.

Xiao Hun frowned and his body flashed again, chasing after him.

But next, he found that the mosaic around his opponent was getting larger and larger. His attacks couldn't lock onto the target at all, and if he got too close, he would be sucked into the mosaic and couldn't see anything.

"What is this damn thing!" Xiao Hun shouted, tears streaming as he stared fixatedly at the fleeing Zhou Bai. His hands formed a Taoist spell and he saw hundreds of golden lights flashing through the air, Golden Armored Soldiers being teleported by the Void Escape Technique directly in front of Zhou Bai, blocking the entire mosaic in an instant.

Xiao Hun, at the seventh rank of cultivation, had trained the Six Ding and Six Jia protective divine generals from the Six Ding and Six Jia Diagram. Each of these divine generals possessed the martial arts cultivation of the fifth realm.

The leading 12 divine generals each mastered a seventh realm Taoist skill. Although each had a singular attack method, when they formed into an army and fought together, they were ferociously unmatched, and combined with Xiao Hun's Void Escape Technique, they moved unpredictably, with the Hundred Six Ding and Six Jia divine generals capable of traversing space to stealthily attack and assassinate.

It can be said that Xiao Hun's strength was among the best in the seventh realm. Even when Zhao Shouyi, who cultivated the Purple and Green Twin Swords, fought him without forming the Mixed Element Sword Formation, he was no match.

And now, using such strength against Zhou Bai immediately made Zhou Bai feel immense pressure.

Faced with the attacks of hundreds of divine generals, he could only rely on the ugly mosaic to dodge most of the attacks, and for the rest, he used the Guihai Black Evil and resilience similar to mountains to resist, eventually using Laziness to heal himself.

Ugliness, healing, acceleration, all required the consumption of Laziness.

Zhou Bai saw his Laziness rapidly decreasing, having already spent over one hundred thousand in a short time.

'This Xiao Hun is really fierce. Keeping this up will drain my Laziness,' Zhou Bai suddenly thought. 'Such strong strength, yet only the seventh realm, not even the stronger eighth or ninth realms... and he didn't come to support when West Mountain City was attacked...'

With that thought, Zhou Bai couldn't help but grit his teeth.

"Just thinking about it makes me furious."

As he observed his swiftly depleting laziness points, Zhou Bai pondered whether it might be a smarter choice to simply use time reversal to avoid meeting Xiao Hun altogether. Although he had other methods to escape, those consumed too many laziness points and seemed hardly worth it.

At that moment, Zhou Bai noticed that both the six divine soldiers and their commander, Xiao Hun, who were previously pursuing him, had failed to keep up.

He glanced back at Xiao Hun, who he had quickly left behind, and was slightly taken aback, "What's he playing at? Not pursuing anymore? The disaster's duration surely had expired, but it doesn't make sense for him not to chase me."

On the other side, Xiao Hun, fixated on the shrinking black dot that was Zhou Bai, landed slowly on the ground.

Meanwhile, his sea of consciousness was turbulent, twisting the light and air around every inch of his body.

Xiao Hun then was seen sitting cross-legged, breathing rhythmically for about five minutes before slowly opening his eyes, having suppressed the disturbance within him.

"It's a pity, I used too many Void Escape Techniques at once; after all, it's a Twilight Taoist Skill. Using it excessively can lead to dangerous distortions."

The thought of the escaping Nine Realms Flying Sword darkened Xiao Hun's expression again, "That flying sword moves too swiftly, able to escape thousands of meters in the blink of an eye. There are probably only a handful of cultivators in the seventh realm who could catch up with its true speed.

I had to rely on the Void Escape Technique to catch up, yet I couldn't manage to attack him forcefully enough to detain him in that instant. It really gave me too little time to make my move."

In Xiao Hun's mind emerged all the various abilities Zhou Bai had used along the way. He thought to himself, 'This guy even deceived me with his information; he's both powerful and shameless. Next time, I must capture him and refine him.'

Thinking thus, Xiao Hun felt an immense sense of regret, "Never mind, I'll first complete this mission. I'll investigate the origin of that flying sword once I return to the heavens, figure out his background, and then plan to deal with him."

Meanwhile, Zhou Bai, seeing that Xiao Hun really wasn't following, decided to stop accelerating and mournfully glanced at his laziness points.

His clash with Xiao Hun had cost him over 150,000 points, reducing his laziness points from 880,000 to 730,000.

"If this guy hadn't used instantaneous movement, I wouldn't have had to spend so many laziness points. And despite normally using a Shao Formation in battle, how can he also use instantaneous movement? And to think his audacity went as far as trying to trick me into becoming his flying sword—so strong yet so shameless."

Zhou Bai firmly embedded Xiao Hun in his memory, planning to settle scores once he became stronger. He flew at high speed and returned to West Mountain City in just half an hour.

As soon as he arrived, he eagerly went to the retreat where he expected to find Christina.

However, upon reaching the room of her supposed retreat, he found Christina was not there.

Zhou Bai inwardly cursed, 'That damn cat, can't she be relied upon? Didn't I tell her to feign a retreat here? Where has she gone?'

Zhou Bai then stealthily went to the lodgings provided by West Mountain City, only to discover his own body sitting facing away from the door, head bowed and hands in front, body shaking uncontrollably, as if convulsing, with a pack of tissues beside him.

"Damn it!" Zhou Bai erupted in anger at the sight, "What on earth is Christina messing around with?!"

He rushed in and struck his head with his sword, shouting, "Christina, what are you doing!"

But he saw Christina turn her head with red eyes, crying as she spoke, "Wu wu wu! Zhou Bai! Zhou Bai! Wu wu wu!"

Zhou Bai, puzzled, said, "What's wrong with you? Stop crying, all these tears and snot... I look so ugly when I cry."
