Chapter 1270
“Boom boom boom boom…”
Multiple explosions ripped apart the sky, deafening the ears of all around as they warped space in on itself .
Multiple men stood above the skies of the Fate School, each one of them focusing hard on the wavering space in front of them .
The one at the forefront of the group was Ge Yiyun . Several other men were with him, each one of them being over the age of a hundred and also boasting a very powerful aura .
Seven men in total, each of them Soul Emperors . Aside from Ge Yiyun, who was a Peak Late-stage Soul Emperor, there was another Late-stage Soul Emperor, two Mid-stage Soul Emperors, and three Early-stage Soul Emperors .
They are the strongest the Fate School had to offer . Students of the school weren’t divided by inner or outer students, they didn’t have the numbers for such a division . Each student held unbelievable talent, and that was the result of the meticulous planning of the Fate School . No other school held talent on such a high pedestal as the Fate School . They had more Soul Kings in store, but given the current circumstances, there wasn’t much of a point for them to be here…
“Headmaster, the Hidden Horizon won’t last for much longer, please give the orders for the students to evacuate! We can only offer up a meager resistance if we fight, it’d be better for us to scatter to the winds instead! As long as a few of us survive, the legacy of our school will continue on…”
One of the elders urged Ge Yiyun .
The other elders all looked expectantly to Ge Yiyun, anxious to hear his decision . They all were resigned to their deaths . Their invaders were not a force they could afford to fight against . In short, they each believed the Fate School was at its end, and that there was no more hope to be had .
They weren’t even a match for a single Saint, let alone two…
Their only goal was to sacrifice their own lives to bide for enough time for their students to escape . Even if they themselves died, the school would live on in the next generation!
But even that goal was unlikely to succeed, no matter how much they wanted to deny it . At best, only a few of their students would survive, but only at best . Should a Soul Emperor chase after them, the chances of survival would be little to none…
“Has our Fate School really been resigned to such a path? Our enemies have two Saints amongst them, what chance is there to survive?”
As he was looked to, Ge Yiyun thought to himself amidst his despair and pondered about the situation . Never had he imagined that the Tianhun School would bring out such a force . It seemed to him that all the work he put in over the years to resolve this problem had gone up in smoke . That one chance of survival he once divined those many years ago seemed to be hollow and fake now .
“It’ll be too late even if Chengfeng brings Bai Yunfei and some more reinforcements…perhaps it’d be better for them to not hurry at all…”
His heart quivered at the very thought of Li Chengfeng . He didn’t want to give up, but the situation was far too bleak for him to think otherwise .
He noticed then, that his hands had been clenched so tightly into fists that they had gone white . “There’s no other choice, the array will fall in less than half a day . Let the others know, once the array has fallen we’ll ha—”
“What?!”
A new presence cut into Ge Yiyun’s sentence before he could even finish it . Eyes wide open, he glanced up to the north in shock!
“No!! Li Chengfeng is back!!”
……
Beyond the Hidden Horizon .
Despite the efforts of two Saints working together for two days and nights, the array had yet to be broken . However, no one was particularly worried . There was no way they’d be bothered by anyone worth being worried about . And even if a Saint came, what was one Saint to fear when they had two? Saints were already rare enough on the continent, having multiple of them allied in the same force was even more rare than that .
There wasn’t a single part of space in front of Gu Jimie that was intact . Cracks ran along the surface of space like cracked glass, and several areas had even large craters that seemed to eat at the surrounding energy like a bottomless black hole .
Given the strengths of Gu Jimie and Guan Xiongyan, the two of them knew that whatever was ‘hiding’ inside this broken space was nearly on the verge of being revealed . The two glanced briefly at one another, and as if telepathically agreeing, they began to redouble their efforts to try and tear apart the array .
The rest of the Soul Emperors could only watch as the two Saints did their work . They didn’t know what the two were doing, but they could at least sense the change in the two . Excited, they continued to spectate the broken space in hopes of finally seeing the legendary Fate School .
It was at that moment the Soul Emperors took notice of a new presence coming toward them .
