Chapter 161: Pain! So Much Pain
The pitch-black night was utterly dark, not even a hand could be seen.
But under the illumination of this small sun.
It felt like broad daylight.
At the same time, everyone sensed an extremely terrifying heat radiating from that small sun.
At this moment, all the demonic beasts in the entire mountain range had lost any violent tendencies. Facing this sacred and terrifying Golden Crow Scorching Sun, the only thing they could do was lie on the ground, trembling and waiting to die.
The elite academy students controlled by the demon insects had stopped attacking Zhu Yaoguang and the others.
They knelt on the ground, kowtowing to the sky, with expressions of reverence, as if worshipping a god of their faith.
Sun Ze was laughing wildly, nearly mad, kowtowing to the sun in the sky.
Zhu Yaoguang, Ji Wuming, and the others looked at this small sun with faces full of despair.
Compared to Ling Zhan's previous meteor shower of flames.
This Golden Crow Scorching Sun, emitting endless brilliance, was clearly countless times stronger.
Yet, this was merely the casual action of a Four-tier powerhouse.
"Defeated..."
At this moment.
All the geniuses of Tianyan Academy felt a surge of despair.
Even with the monstrous talent of Ling Zhan by their side, facing this irresistible terrifying power, they were still powerless.
"Hah..."
In the face of this predicament, Ling Zhan slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air.
His gaze remained calm, showing no signs of despair.
Originally, he intended to unlock all his restraints, along with using the Scarecrow of Substitution item, to see just how large the gap was between himself and a Four-tier powerhouse.
But now, seeing that Golden Crow Scorching Sun capable of destroying the entire mountain range, this idea was instantly dismissed.
Is this situation really unsolvable, leaving them only to wait for death?
Not necessarily.
Fighting head-on was not an option.
Escape was definitely possible.
Moreover, he intended to escape with everyone.
Thanks to Ling Zhan's cautious personality of always being prepared.
He had long anticipated that a situation of despair like this might occur someday.
"We're not dead yet, so don't be consumed by despair!"
Ling Zhan coldly used 'Transmission Technique' to wake up each teammate immersed in despair.
Upon hearing Ling Zhan's voice, Zhu Yaoguang and the others suddenly snapped out of it.
But they still gave a bitter smile.
Facing this already-formed destructive scorching sun, they had nowhere to escape, nowhere to hide.
Even though they had a spirit array master in the team, there wasn't enough time to prepare a teleportation array.
Temulis could quickly complete a small magic teleportation array.
But what good would it do?
The entire demonic beast mountain range, spanning hundreds of miles, would be affected.
A small teleportation magic array couldn't transport them out of range.
As for Ling Zhan, who had always brought them surprises...
Forget it.
If they were facing just a second-tier, or a top-tier second-tier powerhouse below level 69, they believed that this monster Ling Zhan, if not able to defeat the opponent, could at least lead everyone to escape safely.
But this witch before them...
Too strong.
So strong that it made people want to kneel and kowtow.
It was fortunate that the witch's figure had already floated thousands of meters high in the sky.
If she were still here, they would still be under her oppressive force, trembling and kneeling.
Against such an existence, not to mention one Ling Zhan, even a hundred Ling Zhans would be useless!
"Follow my lead, I can get you out!"
Facing such disheartened teammates, Ling Zhan felt exhausted.
Hearing Ling Zhan say this.
The originally despairing teammates reluctantly gathered their spirits, "What do you have in mind?"
Ling Zhan calmly replied, "I also have a 'Sun and Moon Wheel Talisman'!"
Everyone: "!!!"
"You..."
"Stop talking."
Ling Zhan coldly interrupted everyone's curiosity and calmly said, "While that old woman in the sky hasn't noticed, what you need to do now is tie up all these kneeling puppets together."
"When the time comes, I will use the 'Sun and Moon Wheel Talisman' to teleport to a safe location I have marked in advance."
"Rest assured, that location is in Villa No. 1 of Tianyan Academy."
"What you need to do now is listen to me and stop whining in despair!"
Back during the training and preparation period.
Ling Zhan visited the obsessive-compulsive headmaster once again.
He requested a long-distance teleportation escape tool that could transport him thousands of miles.
The 'Scarecrow of Substitution' teleported him to a random location, which did not give Ling Zhan any sense of security.
Wang Shi scratched his head and felt that a promising genius like Ling Zhan indeed needed proper protection to avoid any accidents.
So, Wang Shi shamelessly asked a grandmaster friend for help.
Typically, the university freshmen exchange trial competition was led and trained by headmasters like Wang Shi, who were skilled in tactical command.
Do you know why he didn't come this time and let Han Qiao come instead?
That's because...
He was pulled by that grandmaster friend to do hard labor.
There was no other way.
The Sun and Moon Wheel Talisman, a precious treasure that could only be inscribed by a grandmaster, was not something easy to come by.
If you want something, you have to pay the price.
Wang Shi thought that for this promising student, it was worth it to do some hard labor for a while.
And so.
Ling Zhan got the Sun and Moon Wheel Talisman.
Dean Wang went to do the hard labor.
What Ling Zhan didn't expect was to encounter a situation so soon where he had to use this talisman.
But it didn't matter.
Money should be spent when needed.
If it's gone, just earn more.
At worst, he would shamelessly go back to Dean Wang, his living ATM.
Zhu Yaoguang, Ji Wuming, and the others had been despairing, waiting for death.
Now, suddenly seeing a glimmer of hope for survival.
They had to treat it with utmost seriousness.
Taking advantage of the elite academy puppets kowtowing to the old woman, Zhu Yaoguang and the others effortlessly used items and skills to bind everyone together.
"You lowly inferior humans dare to interrupt our sacred..."
Slap!!
"Shut up!"
Without hesitation, Ling Zhan slapped Ye Tian, who was controlled by the demon insect.
Not far away, the frenzied Sun Ze sensed something was wrong.
He immediately let out a sharp screech, then flapped his wings and charged fiercely at Ling Zhan!
Ling Zhan's eyes were cold. His right leg whipped out like a lash!
'Low Kick'!
A basic Sanda skill!
Bang!!
A dull thud.
"Ahhh!!"
Heart-wrenching screams burst from Sun Ze's mouth again!
He was kicked several meters away, clutching his lower body tightly, rolling on the ground non-stop, his ugly demon face twisted in agony.
Pain!
So much pain!
The excruciating pain unique to men, even the demonized Sun Ze couldn't bear it!
Taking advantage of this opportunity.
Ling Zhan suddenly raised the talisman in his hand!
Buzz!!
An incredibly profound spatial fluctuation spread out suddenly!
Zhu Yaoguang, Ji Wuming, and the others finally showed expressions of joy and excitement!
It worked!
Finally, they could escape!
However...
As it turned out, at critical moments.
There always seemed to be a twist of fate.
Buzz!!
Just as the teleportation was about to complete.
The space around Ling Zhan was forcibly sliced out by a black feather.
