Chapter 1341: No time to explain
As the group from the Mount Hua Sword Sect ran, they did all that they could to lose the ones that were chasing after them.
It was just that no matter what they tried to do, they weren’t able to create a gap with the ones that were chasing them at all.
It was clear that it wouldn’t be that easy to lose them, but it wasn’t as if they could stop either. After all, there was no way that they would be able to keep this item if they were to suddenly stop all of a sudden.
That was why they kept firing attacks back at all the ones that were chasing them.
These attacks didn’t do anything to those people and it seemed like they were nothing more than small annoyances for them. It was just that there was nothing that they could do other than fire these small attacks at them.
Eventually, they had to ask the one that was holding the item what was wrong.
“There’s something strange about this item.” That was all that person said before raising the item that he was holding.
When he did this, it seemed like there was some kind of reaction that came from the item that he was showing them. It was as if there was some kind of resonance that came from it that was activating that item.
All of a sudden, there was a wave of energy that was released from it.
The Mount Hua Sword Sect group couldn’t help being caught off guard when they felt this energy come out, but it wasn’t as if it was strong enough to do anything to them. They were able to easily come back to their senses and put up their defenses to stop this wave of energy.
However, that wasn’t enough to completely stop the wave of energy that was released by this item.
This wave of energy continued out from where they were until they reached the other core disciples.
Only when this wave of energy reached them, the power that it contained was different from when it hit the Mount Hua Sword Sect group. It was as if it had picked up power while traveling and was strong enough to push them back.
“They’ve already figured out how to use it!”
“Stop them before they get away!”
“Don’t let them use more of its powers!”
That was the conclusion that the core disciples had come to, but these words filled the Mount Hua Sword Sect group with wry feelings. They had just been framed in this matter since they hadn’t even done anything.
Or at least they didn’t feel like they had done anything.
To confirm this, they all looked at the one who was holding the item in their hand.
When that person saw the others looking at him, he quickly shook his head to show that this wasn’t the case.
Then after he shook his head, he seemed like he wanted to say something.
It was just that they didn’t have the time for him to say anything as the other core disciples had recovered and started chasing them again. Their slight moment of hesitation wondering if they had caused this allowed them to catch up again.
It completely negated the space that energy wave bought them.
So they had no choice but to run again.
“Try to see if you can activate it again. Perhaps it really can help us escape this blockade.” The leader of the Mount Hua Sword Sect group shouted at the one holding the item.
The one holding the item had a conflicted look on his face since he still thought that there was something strange about this item. However, he had also felt the power behind that wave of energy just now.
Perhaps this thing really might be the only thing that could save them now.
That was why he started looking at the item in his hand carefully as he tried to figure something out.
It was just that no matter how he tried to activate this item, it didn’t seem to respond at all.
There was a bitter look that appeared on his face when he saw how the item ignored him. It even reached the point where this person felt like he wanted to cry because of how he was ignored.
But then all of a sudden, there was a reaction that came from the item.
It was the same thing as before where there was some kind of resonance that came from the item before another wave of energy was released from it. This wave of energy seemed even stronger than before, but the Mount Hua Sword Sect group was prepared for it.
Since they were prepared, it didn’t take much for them to dodge or block this wave of energy.
As for the other core disciples, they also recognized this same wave as soon as they saw it and prepared their defenses as well. Since they weren’t caught off guard, their defenses were stronger than before.
But they found that the wave had also become stronger at the same time…so it negated out in the end.
“They’re figuring out how to use the item!”
“We have to stop them before they can fully claim it!”
“Go all out!”
Only on the Mount Hua Sword Sect side, the leader shouted at the one holding the item, “Can’t you use it for anything else? Why are you only using the same thing?”
The one holding the item revealed a bitter smile as he didn’t know what to say.
After all, he was being framed for this and he couldn’t even complain since it was the item itself that was doing this. If he were to complain, then all it would do is sound like it was an excuse.
So in the end, the one holding the item said, “It’s not me, it’s the item itself reacting to them when they get closer. That’s why it’s been releasing these waves the entire time.”
Or at least this was the conclusion that he came to based on what had happened during this time.
“Then figure out a way to control it!” The leader shouted at him.
The one holding the item revealed another bitter smile, but he didn’t argue back this time since he knew that the leader was right. Instead of saying anything else, it was better if he figured out how to use this thing.
After thinking about it, he raised his sword and pointed it at the item.
The moment that he did, the item started to shake as if it was afraid of this sword that was pointed at it.
There was a faint smile that appeared on his face when he saw this before he lowered his voice to say, “There’s no need to be afraid. I know that you can understand what I’m saying. As long as you follow my orders, I promise that nothing will happen to you.”
Even at this moment, this person was trying to make this item into his own.
That was just the kind of greed that these people possessed, it wasn’t something that could be corrected.
Only the result wasn’t what he thought it would be.
There was a resonance that came from the item as if it was about to release another wave, so the one holding it came forward as if he wanted to point the item at the core disciples.
It seemed like he was making use of this wave and was trying to hit the core disciples with it.
Only there was no wave that came out in the end.
The only thing that came out were energy deers that were just like the ones that had attacked them previously.
The problem was that these energy deers really were easy to deal with compared to the energy wave and the other core disciples were able to cut right through them. They were able to charge right at the person that was holding the item.
Since they had stopped and tried to use the item against everyone, that meant that they had given the others the chance to catch up.
“This idiot!” The members of the Mount Hua Sword Sect cursed out this person and then went forward to protect him. Or rather it was better to say that they went forward to protect the item that he was holding.
In truth, they already didn’t care if this person survived or not as long as they could secure the item.
While this was happening, there was a powerful glow that came from the item before even more energy deers were released. This time, the core disciples couldn’t help moving back since they knew that they couldn’t face these energy deers.
These ones were just much stronger compared to the ones that they faced previously.
“This thing…” The one holding the item couldn’t help muttering to himself as he started figuring something out.
“It’s trying to manipulate us!” He shouted all of a sudden, but his voice was drowned out by the sounds of fighting that followed.
Though they had been pushed back slightly, the core disciples were still in range to attack. Since they were close enough for this, they naturally didn’t waste this chance at all and used powerful attacks against the Mount Hua Sword Sect group.
The Mount Hua Sword Sect group in return used their strongest attacks to block this which resulted in a large explosion.
During all of this, the item once again released another wave of energy deers.
This time, the energy deers went in all directions.
Even in the direction of the Mount Hua Sword Sect group.
