Wang Er and Tang Wu then realized the urgency and scrambled to their feet. Discover hidden stories at empire
"Let's go!" Mo Hua said decisively.
Just as they were about to run, Wang Lai pleaded:
"Save me! I don't want to die here!"
Mo Hua's gaze flickered, then he said to Bai Zisheng, "Take him with us."
Bai Zisheng was somewhat reluctant.
Mo Hua said, "He still has his uses."
"Alright then."
Bai Zisheng nodded, secured Wang Lai with a chain, and dragged him as they ran outside.
As for the remaining thugs, Mo Hua didn't care.
If they could live through the anomaly in the mineshaft, that would be their good fortune. If they died, they deserved it, repaying the lives of the Mining Cultivators they had taken.
And so, Bai Zisheng dragged Wang Lai, who was like a mangy dog, without slowing down, running out of the mineshaft.
Mo Hua employed his movement technique and followed Bai Zisheng closely.
Bai Zixi's steps were light as she followed beside Mo Hua.
Behind them, Old Yu, Wang Er, and Tang Wu ran for their lives with desperation, possibly spurred on by the crisis, they were running quite fast.
The atmosphere inside the mineshaft grew increasingly sinister, the aura of death gradually filling every corner.
But fortunately, Mo Hua had detected it early, and their withdrawal was timely enough.
So by the time a muffled roar emerged from the mineshaft, sounding eerily non-human, Mo Hua and the others had already escaped from within.
Still, Mo Hua was not reassured, and led everyone through the secret passage away from the Lu Family mineshaft until they reached the edge of the mine. Only then did they stop.
Wang Lai was dragged so violently that he was covered in wounds and passed out.
Wang Er and Tang Wu had only just calmed their frightened souls and were gasping for air.
The expressions on Bai Zisheng's and Bai Zixi's faces were also filled with astonishment and uncertainty.
Mo Hua turned to look at the mine, his pupils shaking.
At that moment, the mine burst forth with a terrifying presence, composed of numerous sinister auras.
From deep within the mineshaft, there came grating and heart-wrenching noises, like some spectral beings scraping at something with their hands.
It also sounded as if deceased Mining Cultivators were still laboring in the mine.
And amidst the decay and the aura of death, that malevolent presence from the Ultimate Formation that Mo Hua had sensed became even more intense.
Mo Hua's brows furrowed even more tightly.
Who exactly set up this Ultimate Formation, and what was it? What exactly lay hidden in this gloomy mine...
