Dashing Student-Chapter 1285: No Way Out

"Run, quickly run!"

The Demon Cultivators finally realized they were up against a steel wall thicker than a fortress, and instantly lost their fighting spirit, fleeing in all directions.

But just as they began to move, four colossal Fierce Beasts chased after them, the giant eagle flapping its wings, unleashing densely packed Wind Blades that blocked the path.

The giant wolf howled, the fierce tiger roared, and a Life-taking Yama was slaughtering the Demon Cultivators like slicing through vegetables.

With the last Demon Cultivator dying at his hands, Chen Nan was already drenched in blood. He leaped straight into the sea, and moments later emerged from the water, arriving on the island, cleansed of blood.

"Jue Mingzi, you are incredible. Can I become your disciple? I don’t need to be as powerful as you, having half your power would suffice. That way, I could crush my brother’s head!"

Deng Yunhe hurried over, not even caring about his injuries, his face full of excitement as he looked at Chen Nan, eyes filled with anticipation.

Chen Nan mercilessly refused him: "I don’t accept."

When the others also approached, he continued, "We need to leave here quickly. The Demon Sect is madly hunting down the Righteous Alliance cultivators. If we are found, we will surely face a hard battle."

His words were very tactful, Ning Yu and the others were all heavily injured, lacking Chen Nan’s extraordinary Recovery Power, so if discovered by Demon Cultivators, the consequences would be even more dire.

Deng Yunhe was full of discontent: "Why does the Demon Sect behave like dogs? We felt it too. At first, we could hide, but later it’s as if the Demon Cultivators were tracking us by scent."

Chen Nan naturally knew the reason. The Demon Clan had trapped and killed thousands of Demon Cultivators, even scheming against the prodigy Xiao Lie, and all this was blamed on the Righteous Alliance and Chen Nan.

That’s why the Demon Sect searched for Righteous Alliance cultivators like crazy, likely it’s the same situation on the Righteous Alliance side.

"The storm is coming," Daoist Cui calculated with grave expression.

Ning Yu stepped forward and asked, "Jue Mingzi, where should we head next?"

Chen Nan frowned in thought. Heading towards the Righteous Alliance would surely have many Demon Cultivators blocking the way, not letting them return easily.

While other areas within the Demon Sect’s territory also had numerous Demon Cultivators searching everywhere. It seemed no matter where they headed, it was a dead end.

With no other option, Chen Nan looked at Daoist Cui: "Elder Cui, can you calculate where our path lies?"

Deng Yunhe glared: "You actually trust him? You might as well ask me!"

Daoist Cui didn’t pay him any mind but nodded solemnly: "Alright, let me calculate it."

He closed his eyes, his fingers constantly calculating, after a while he opened his eyes, and his temples had unknowingly gained more white hair.

"East!"

As soon as he spoke, Daoist Cui spat a mouthful of blood.

Deng Yunhe was stunned, quickly rushing forward to support him: "You old Taoist, you’re really risking your life!"

Daoist Cui grinned slyly: "Do you honestly think an old Taoist can only fool others?"

"See, you admit you were fooling people before? That’ll be ten Spirit Stones for the young master!" Deng Yunhe immediately shouted.

Seeing the two still having the spirit to argue, indicating they were lively, Chen Nan helplessly shook his head: "Elder Cui, the eastern direction is towards the Righteous Alliance. Is that our path?"

Daoist Cui shook his head: "No path, no matter which direction we walk, it’s extremely dangerous, but heading east, amidst the danger, there’s a hint of life, likely assisted by someone distinguished."

"Distinguished person?"

Everyone frowned. Could there be a distinguished person on the Demon Sect side? It was unimaginable.

But even Chen Nan didn’t know which way was suitable to go, so only Daoist Cui’s suggestion remained as a choice.

The group summoned a Flying Boat and quickly departed the deserted island, heading eastward.

...

Three days later, Chen Nan and the others were cornered by over a hundred Demon Cultivators on an island, with mountains and rivers, currently trapped within a canyon.

"Old Cui, is this the slim chance of survival you mentioned? It looks like we’re doomed!" Deng Yunhe shouted.

It’s no wonder he said so, over a hundred Demon Cultivators were besieging them, all Great Cultivators of the Golden Core Realm, with three being of Golden Core Perfection.

Such an extravagant lineup, in situations without Nascent Soul Realm cultivators taking action, was unbeatable.

And the three Golden Core Perfection Demon Cultivators were not personally engaging, instead, continually sending others to deplete Chen Nan’s stamina and mana, astonished by his endurance of three consecutive days under relentless attack.

"You’re utterly useless, so many couldn’t take down merely five people?" A Golden Core Perfection cultivator cursed at his subordinates.

The subordinate felt extremely wronged, pointing at Chen Nan still battling in the canyon far away: "My lord, this guy is not human, still so fierce after three days, any other cultivator would have died of exhaustion."

"These three days, he has killed over a hundred of our brothers, he’s truly a monster!"

"Hmph, that’s no excuse for your failure to eliminate him in three days!" The Golden Core Perfection Great Cultivator snorted coldly, yet felt a chill in his heart.

He witnessed Chen Nan’s persistence for three days firsthand, his reckless fighting style resembling madness more than Demon Cultivators themselves.

"No matter what, he must die today!"

In the canyon, Chen Nan neared exhaustion, having consumed copious Elixir Pills, even Replenishing Essence Pills were losing efficacy in mana recovery.

To protect Ning Yu and the others, he preferred to suffer injuries himself, yet now even he was powerless to reverse the situation, looking up at the three figures in the sky.

"What a pity, just a bit more."

Within those three days, he had used all his trump cards, leaving only one unused, the Space Law. Such Power on ordinary Demon Cultivators was indeed too wasteful.

He intended it for those three Golden Core Perfection Demon Cultivators, akin to Xiao Lie, both prodigies of the Demon Sect, even a single death would be excruciatingly painful for the Demon Sect.

Regrettably, throughout the three days, Chen Nan attempted multiple approaches but was intercepted each time, and those three seemed to have sensed something, never approaching him.

At this point, Chen Nan was out of options.

Watching as a dozen Demon Cultivators charged at him, their faces twisted, bodies enveloped in Demonic Qi like ghouls, Chen Nan slowly covered his left eye.

The pupil of the right eye swiftly turned white, releasing an ominous aura.

The Demon Cultivators that had rushed to Chen Nan suddenly sensed a mortal threat; desperately turning to flee, but it was too late.

"Space Law."
