Death... and me

Chapter 1554 It Blew Up



Chapter 1554 It Blew Up

*Couch, cough, cough…* 

Sometime later, Vaz, Clinbay, Levid, and everyone else stepped out of the chamber. At the moment, they looked terrible. Ragged clothes, messy hair, bruises, if it looked like it would fit, then it would probably be there. It was obvious that although the chamber resisted the impact of the explosion, it wasn’t a very nice place to be a moment ago. 

Clinbay then looked around and couldn’t help but ask, “What happened? Why didn’t we get shot into the barrier?”

Vaz, as well as the other Formation Masters, looked at each other. None of them seemed to know the answer at all. In any case, Vaz could think about a possibility. “As you know, this formation was a mess in itself. We finished building it, but there had never been a guarantee it would work. It seems like we failed.”

Levid, on the other hand, was more concerned about something else. “Forget the formation for now. Since we weren’t able to be shot away, then we’ll have to stay. The problem is the people and demon beasts outside. We even attacked them before activating the protection formation to gain time.”

Clinbay and the others bitterly smiled after that. Sure enough, now they would have to deal with the mess since their plan didn’t work. However, Clinbay knew there was no point in waiting for it anymore. They had to face it. “Let’s head out. It seems like the explosions didn’t affect the teleport formation building.”

Everyone quickly stepped into the formations and teleported back to the white tower. When they arrived there, they quickly noticed the other lower members of the organization, as well as the twins watching out through the window. Well, it wasn’t like they didn’t know what those members were looking at with the sounds of explosions resounding nonstop.

Rean noticed when Vaz and company appeared, saying in shock, “Senior Vaz? What are you doing here?” Of course, he pretended to be surprised by their presence.

Vaz felt quite bad since Rean had helped them a lot on this endeavor just for it to fail. “Sorry, the formation blew up. The entire formation is broken. There isn’t a single intact rune to tell the story.”

”What?!” Both Rean and Roan were surprised to hear that. They obviously knew that the formation wouldn’t work. After all, Rean made sure of it. However, Vaz and the others were already back, and the shooting formation was gone. Even so, the quest to stop the Upside Down World beings from escaping was not counted as over.

Rean looked at Roan and said, ‘If that’s the case, the real objective of this quest must be Havek’s formation.’

Roan nodded. ‘We have no other choice. We have to make Havek give up on his formation. However, he said it’ll take at least a year for him to finish, so we can deal with that later. Let’s see what Clinbay and the others will do about this situation. The protection formation in the tower won’t last long.’

Rean accepted the idea. ‘Alright.’

Clinbay, who had also just stepped out of the formation, immediately began to give orders, saying, “Send your family members or relatives to their rooms. After that, gather at the entrance of the tower.”

Everyone followed his words, and a few moments later, they all gathered in front of the tower while its protection formation was being bombarded. After some time, Clinbay said, “Turn off the formation.”

Immediately, the formation of the purging organization’s tower was deactivated. Then again, it wouldn’t last much longer anyway. 

”It’s down!”

”We did it!”

”Quick, we need to find the teleport formation.”

However, some noticed that something was wrong.

”Wait! We didn’t destroy the formation.”

”He’s right. The formation was deactivated from inside.”

”Look! It’s Clinbay and the other grand elders of the purging organization!”

Liman, who was acting more or less like a leader, was shocked to see all of them there. Of course, he didn’t give up and quickly approached the purging organization members. Many of the experts of the other powers did the same since they wanted to know what was happening. 

”Head Clinbay, have you given up escaping already?” Liman asked.

However, Clinbay shook his head, telling him, “No. We’ve already tried. Unfortunately, the formation blew up, and we failed.”

Before Liman could say anything, the Sect Master of a sect called Jumanvin stepped forward. “Clinbay, you’ve really done it now. Not only did your organization attack everyone, but you’re even trying to cover up the escape formation.”

Clinbay didn’t seem too worried, though. It’s just that he still had quite a bad appearance after the events in the underground formation. “Whether you believe me or not doesn’t matter. If you wish, you can have Liman bring you to the location of the formation. You will see with your own eyes that I’m not lying.”

The Kluka Clan’s head, another power of the Upside Down World, then snorted after hearing that. “Is that so? However, do you think we will let you off the hook even if it’s true? When you guys came up with an idea to escape, you should have informed all of us. It’s us who sustain the purging organization, you know?”

The elder and grand elders of the purging organization couldn’t help but become nervous after that. However, Clinbay kept his composure as he replied, “Is that so? In that case, let’s fight! I won’t lie. I tried to escape on my own with a few members of the organization because the formation couldn’t be built again. Also, it could only be used once while no more than 300 or so beings could come. Come at me! I’m a Space Bending Realm cultivator and won’t flee from this fight.”

Clinbay then smiled as he continued, “However, do you really wish to start a fight against all the elders and me here? Sure, you have the advantage in numbers. But don’t forget that with our strength, we’re probably going to ruin at least a third of the entire Upside Down World before you guys can wipe us out.”

Immediately, everyone went silent.

However, someone then looked at Liman and asked, “Is it true that the formation could only work once?”

Liman had a dark expression as he nodded in response. “Yes.” After all, he was one of the few who knew about everything.

Now both sides were in a dilemma. They could kill Clinbay and everyone else, but would it really be worth it?

Unfortunately, they didn’t have time to think about it…

*Rumble!*

That’s because the entire Upside Down World began to tremble nonstop after that.
