Chapter 265 Rescue
Li Zhi summoned all five ghosts. They were scattered around, eyes wide open, carefully sensing the surrounding space, looking for the small world node that was most likely set up by Nancuo.
However, time passed by, and they had searched the area carefully but still had no clue.
Li Zhi couldn't help but frown, and an anxious look appeared on his face.
As time passed, the anxiety in his heart became more and more intense. After all, this was related to the life and death of Cheng Fengzi.
Suddenly, not far from Li Zhi, there was a sudden earthquake without any warning.
Then, a very slight wave, like a ripple on a calm lake, slowly spread out.
Although the fluctuation was subtle, it did not escape Li Zhi's concentrated perception, and he captured it quickly in an instant.
Li Zhi was delighted, and without thinking, he immediately shouted at Hong Fan who was also anxiously looking for him not far away: "Captain! Here!"
When Hong Fan heard this, he immediately rushed to the location Li Zhi pointed to without saying anything. He stared at the space in front of him with his eyes fixed, his eyes showing a determined focus.
Then, a dazzling light suddenly appeared in the palms of Hong Fan's hands. The light was so hot and intense that it seemed as if two scorching suns suddenly rose in his palms, illuminating a small area around it as bright as day.
Hong Fan didn't hesitate at all and stretched his hands swiftly towards that space.
Then, his hands seemed to have really grasped something, and his hands actually tore a hole in the seemingly empty space with his powerful force.
In an instant, a pitch-black crack suddenly appeared in front of Li Zhi and the others. The crack was like a hideous wound, stretching across the space, emitting a strange and dangerous aura.
Hong Fan gritted his teeth and used all his strength. The veins on his forehead suddenly bulged, like little snakes twisting under his skin. He stretched his neck and shouted at the dark crack with all his strength, "Lao Cheng! Are you there?"
"Captain! I'm here!"
Cheng Fengzi's voice came out clearly from the dark crack. When Li Zhi and Hong Fan heard it, they both showed joy on their faces, and the worry in their eyes was instantly replaced by joy.
But before they could be happy for too long, they heard Cheng Fengzi's urgent voice again: "The world is about to collapse! Hurry up and make the hole bigger. I'll get the people out first!"
Hearing this, Hong Fan did not dare to be negligent. The light in his hand suddenly lit up again, and the light was more dazzling than before. He once again gathered all his strength and struggled to tear the crack bigger bit by bit.
Every time he tore it open a little, he could feel a strong resistance coming from the crack, but Hong Fan gritted his teeth and persisted tenaciously with his tenacious will and great strength.
Li Zhi was not idle either. He quickly drove the five ghosts towards the crack and asked them to go up and help.
The five ghosts received the order and immediately took action. They surrounded the crack and used their hands to desperately pull the edges of the crack, trying to expand it.
Finally, with their concerted efforts, they managed to tear open a crack the size of a person.
However, this crack that was torn open with great difficulty was not stable. It was constantly repairing and shrinking, like a wound with self-healing ability, trying hard to return to its original state.
This meant that Li Zhi and Hong Fan had no time to free up their hands to do other things. They could only hold on like this, trying their best to maintain the size of the crack and prevent it from closing completely.
Soon, innocent people involved in the incident ran out of the cracks in panic. Their faces were filled with fear and confusion, and it was obvious that they had experienced a great shock in that small world.
As time goes by, the repairing power of the crack is gradually strengthened.
Gradually, Hong Fan's forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, which kept rolling down his cheeks and soaking his clothes. Even Li Zhi's five little ghosts began to feel a little overwhelmed, their hands kept shaking, and they were about to give up.
Seeing this, Hong Fan became more and more anxious. He shouted into the crack again: "Lao Cheng! Are you ready? We can't hold on any longer!"
Cheng Fengzi's voice also came out from inside, also with a hint of anxiety, he responded: "Almost there! Hold on a little longer!"
Just when the crack shrank to less than half a person's height, Cheng Fengzi finally managed to get out of it with great difficulty. His body was covered in blood and he looked miserable.
Seeing this, Li Zhi and Hong Fan also let go of their hands at the same time.
"Bang!" There was a loud noise, as if the space was roaring in protest. Li Zhi and Hong Fan both took a few steps back uncontrollably, staggering and almost falling to the ground.
And the space crack returned to its original state the moment they let go, as if nothing had happened, leaving only an empty space.
Hong Fan gasped for air, then he turned around and looked at Cheng Fengzi, who was covered in blood and fainted right after coming out. His heart tightened. He quickly walked over, squatted down, and carefully felt Cheng Fengzi's pulse.
The moment he felt that Cheng Fengzi was weak but still alive, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, a smile of relief appeared on his face.
He said to Li Zhi, "Take Lao Cheng back to the company first! This is not a place to stay for long. You have to take Lao Cheng back for treatment. I will take care of the aftermath of the matter here."
After saying that, he stood up and walked towards the group of mortals who were still at a loss.
Li Zhi nodded, he carried Cheng Fengzi on his back and left quickly.
…
"Is this Zhanzhou?"
A man with a big belly, who looked like a wealthy businessman, was standing in Zhanzhou, a place that looked like hell, and he was looking around slowly.
There was no trace of a cultivator's aura from this wealthy businessman--he was clearly just an ordinary human being.
However, strangely, there were two practitioners with powerful auras following closely behind him.
The two cultivators were like his guards and servants. When they heard him speak, one of them bent down and said in a very humble manner, "Yes, leader. Zhanzhou does not have the eyes of the people of Yongguo for the time being, and it is close to Chu State, which is convenient for us to act."
The man who was called the leader of the association laughed when he heard this. The laughter was particularly abrupt in the slightly dead atmosphere. He said with a smile: "Well, thanks to your escort all the way. You have worked hard."
The two cultivators standing behind him looked serious when they heard this. They said in unison: "It is our honor!"
The head of the association looked up at the two of them, with a sincere and honest look in his eyes.
He slowly stretched out his hand, gently patted the two men's shoulders, and said softly in a gentle but meaningful tone: "Live well, we will witness the light together!"
"Yes!"
The two of them looked so honored and excited!
