Chapter 3911 Taking Back the Body
All of this happened so suddenly and quickly that Red Lady had no time to react and stood there in a daze.
Everything Ye Bufan did was to help Lu Banxia regain her Physical Body, and the white light that just shot in was Lu Banxia's Primordial Spirit.
Under normal circumstances, with Red Lady controlling the Physical Body, it would be extremely difficult to reclaim it.
Therefore, an opportunity had to be created. Everything he had just done was to make the opponent lose her composure.
And under his arrangement, Lu Banxia was already well prepared, calculating with intent against the unprepared.
Moreover, this Physical Body originally belonged to her, and as fellow Wu Spirit Bodies, the Primordial Spirit and Physical Body naturally coordinated more tacitly, without any repulsion.
As for the Restriction left by Devouring Heaven Demon Emperor before, it was to guard against external attacks and had no effect on internal struggles.
Because of this, in just a blink of an eye, a streak of white light, the panic-stricken Red Lady, overflowed from the Mud-Pill Palace, clearly having been expelled.
She still hadn't figured out what had happened before she was driven out.
This was also a normal, expected outcome. Lu Banxia's Primordial Spirit was originally no weaker than hers, and with a surprise attack, she secured the victory in one blow.
"This… how could this be?"
Red Lady's Primordial Spirit floated in mid-air, utterly bewildered. In this short time, she had already said "how could this be?" more than once.
She never expected Ye Bufan to destroy the Dark Shadow Gate, nor did she expect Devouring Heaven Demon Emperor to be forced to self-destruct, and even less did she expect Lu Banxia's Primordial Spirit to be rescued.
This was completely different from her understanding. How could the Dark Shadow Gate fail? How could it end up in such a tragic state?
As for such a person, Ye Bufan gave her no chance to continue thinking. The Demon Refining Bottle flew out, directly collecting the Primordial Spirit, which had not yet recovered, inside.
Having dealt with that, he looked at Lu Banxia: "How are you? Are you alright?"
"Very good!"
Lu Banxia, having regained control of her body, was overjoyed. She moved her limbs, a radiant smile on her face.
"I estimate that in two or three days, I will be able to fully control this body, and my cultivation will directly reach Immortal Venerable Peak!"
As the saying goes, 'a blessing in disguise,' this phrase perfectly described her situation.
Although she had gone through a lot and suffered countless hardships during this period, the final outcome was incredibly perfect.
Many people spend their entire lives unable to reach Immortal Venerable Peak, but she had now directly entered this Realm.
Hearing her words, Situ Dianmo, Ye Tian, Leng Qingqiu, and the others were all filled with joy, genuinely happy for her.
After the excitement, Shen Qiyun said, "Senior Brother, we should go back now."
As she finished speaking, the smile on Ye Bufan's face slowly faded, and the others also suddenly realized a problem.
That was, Devouring Heaven Demon Emperor's Primordial Spirit self-destruction had completely leveled the area. Everything had turned into the Void Realm, and even the entrance they came through had completely disappeared.
The surroundings were empty. Not only could they not find the way back, but they couldn't even distinguish directions. There were no markers to help them figure out where they were.
Xuan Yuan Linglong said, "Ye Dage, how do we go back?"
Ye Bufan also realized the seriousness of the problem. He seemed to be trapped here.
"Can any of you find the way back, or the direction back?"
Everyone was silent. Before, they could naturally find their way because there were various markers around, including large and small meteorites, and they could even feel the energy fluctuations of that portal.
But now, there was nothing. They couldn't sense anything except dark energy.
After two rounds of turmoil inside and outside the Dragon King Palace, standing here now, they had no idea which way was east, west, north, or south.
Situ Dianmo said, "Ye Dage, why don't we try one direction? Maybe we can fly out!"
"Alright then, let's give it a try."
In this situation, Ye Bufan was also at a loss and could only try to choose a direction to Breakthrough.
As long as they left this space and found other landmarks, finding the way back would be much simpler.
Thinking of this, he pulled out a compass, only to find that the magnetic field was chaotic, and the needle spun wildly, unable to fix a direction.
"Forget it, let's rely on luck."
Putting away the compass, he led everyone and sped off in a chosen direction.
Everyone around him was now a strong practitioner, with the lowest cultivation being in the Immortal Lord Realm, and their speed was astonishing.
But after flying for a long time, the surroundings were still empty, with no changes whatsoever.
"No, are we lost?"
Ye Bufan stopped. At their speed, they had been flying for about an hour, which would normally put them at least ten thousand miles away.
Even if the Devouring Heaven Demon Emperor's explosion had a wider range, it couldn't reach this extent.
So, there was only one conclusion: they were completely lost, and they weren't flying in a straight line at all.
This was also normal, just like a 'ghost wall' on Earth. Without any markers, it's very difficult for a person to maintain a straight flight; they might unknowingly be circling.
But the problem now was that it was absolutely dark here, with no sun, moon, or stars, no standards whatsoever, and even the compass was useless. How could they get out in this situation?
Everyone around them was also troubled. If they continued to fly aimlessly like this, they wouldn't be able to escape even if they died of exhaustion.
Lu Banxia's excitement from regaining her Physical Body faded, and her face showed guilt.
"Ye Dage, I've dragged everyone down."
Ye Bufan patted her shoulder: "It has nothing to do with you. Don't worry, we'll find a way out eventually."
"Everyone, think. See if there's any way to distinguish directions."
He encouraged everyone to brainstorm, and he also took out his radar, drones, and various advanced equipment from his ring, but they had no effect here whatsoever.
The equipment was still the same, but he still couldn't find any sense of direction.
Just as everyone was at a loss, Ye Tian's expression suddenly shifted.
"Big Brother, I've found a way."
"Tell me."
Ye Bufan and the others all looked over.
Ye Tian said, "I have a Celestial Demon Body, and I am most sensitive to changes in dark energy. We can choose to fly continuously in the direction where the dark energy weakens, and we should be able to leave this area."
"That's right, that really is a good idea."
Ye Bufan nodded with joy. When Devouring Heaven Demon Emperor self-destructed, the dark energy was most concentrated with him as the center, becoming thinner further outwards.
According to this theory, they should be able to get out of here.
However, this change was too far away for ordinary people to sense clearly; only Ye Tian, with his half-step Immortal Emperor Celestial Demon Body, could do it.
Subsequently, Ye Bufan directly brought out Nine Heavens and let Ye Tian control it, flying in a direction based on his perception of dark energy.
Under everyone's anticipation, Nine Heavens flew for about a quarter of an hour. Ye Bufan's expression changed, revealing a rare look of joy.
At this moment, pieces of Void Realm meteorites appeared within his Divine Sense, and occasionally one or two low-level Immortal Demon Beasts flew by.
This indicated one result: Ye Tian's method had succeeded, and they had finally left the vacuum area where Devouring Heaven Demon Emperor had self-destructed.
(New Year's Day is approaching, so I decided to take a bath to be clean for the New Year. But after washing, I had difficulty breathing and kept coughing.
This illness is too insidious. Everyone, try to hold on and avoid bathing easily.
In short, physical health comes first. Some things are not worth making too difficult for yourself.
Today there is only one chapter; the second chapter hasn't been written yet. I'll go make some lung-cleansing soup later.)
