Time Travel: The Survival of Li Zhi

Chapter 491: The Escape of the Star Envoy

The moment the two forces collided, the whole world seemed to be paused.

First there was a suffocating silence, the air stagnated into substance, even the dust particles were suspended in the air.

Immediately afterwards, a deafening roar like thunder exploded, and the sound waves turned into tangible air waves, sweeping across an area of hundreds of miles with devastating force.

The clouds were torn into pieces, the earth cracked into bottomless ravines, and the towering walls of Tiger Guard City flew like pieces of paper in the shock wave, and bricks and stones were thrown into the sky along with wailing.

When the smoke and dust cleared, Ajia landed heavily on one knee in the rubble.

His left eye was tightly closed, and blood as thick as ink flowed out from his tightly closed left eye, winding down along the twisted inscriptions on his face, condensing into blood beads on his chin, and falling drop by drop onto the charred ground.

The Star Envoy was not in a much better condition. He no longer felt as relaxed as when he was sitting on the back of the golden-scaled carp. His face was pale and he stood staggeringly on the back of the golden-scaled carp.

The Star Envoy's gaze was like the surface of a disturbed lake, a complex expression of shock, solemnity, and fear intertwined. His eyes were fixed on Ajia below, as if he could see through him.

The power of the spell Ajia had cast was so immense that the Star Envoy still felt a lingering fear when he recalled it. If he hadn't held back some of his trump cards, he probably wouldn't have been able to withstand Ajia's move just now.

However, the Star Envoy's eyesight was also extremely sharp. He could naturally see that the energy consumption of such a powerful attack was absolutely astonishing.

Just from looking at Ajia's current situation, the Star Envoy consciously believed that Ajia should no longer have the strength to fight.

Thinking of this, the Star Envoy finally relaxed a little. He licked the blood from the corner of his mouth and forced a cold smile, "This move must have cost you half your life, right?"

As he spoke, the Star Envoy's aura began to surge like surging waves. His palms shimmered with tiny sparks, like the stars in the night sky, emitting a faint but undeniable light.

The Star Envoy's voice was cold and ruthless. His gaze was like a cold star, staring straight at Ajia. He said coldly, "If you don't have a backup plan, today will be your death!"

Just as he was about to make a move, he saw Ajia below suddenly stand up slowly.

Beneath Ajia's tattered clothes, his upper body, covered in inscriptions, was covered in wounds that looked like cracks. Ajia slowly raised his head, his right eye bulging, almost bursting out.

That eye was filled with bloodshot and rage, as if burning with a blazing flame. His voice boomed like thunder in the air: "Then come and give it a try!"

Before he finished speaking, Ajia's left eye, which had been closed, suddenly opened!

At this moment, a brilliant light flashed from his scarlet left eye, like the pupil of an ancient ferocious beast, sweeping across the entire scene with a terrifying pressure.

The Star Envoy felt as if his chest was being gripped by an invisible giant hand, and a fishy-sweet taste rushed up his throat. He clenched his teeth tightly, trying hard not to spit it out.

The golden-scaled carp under his feet also let out a terrified scream, and the golden scales on its body fell off.

"impossible!"

The star's expression suddenly changed.

He could clearly sense that this power had the same origin as the Star God's presence just now, but was even more violent. The star power circulating around Ajia's body was several times stronger than before.

Alarm bells rang in his heart. If the opponent could launch an attack that was no less powerful than the last one, then even if he still had some cards up his sleeve, he couldn't guarantee that he could block it again!

At this moment, the Star Envoy began to feel like retreating.

As the Star Envoy of the Xingyun Sect, he has an extremely noble status, so he naturally doesn't want to end his life here.

As for the Heart of the Stars?

The Star Envoy no longer had the intention to snatch it away. He was not originally from the Star Gate and did not know much about the Heart of the Stars. Moreover, in his opinion, no matter how good the treasure was, it was not as important as life.

So, he stomped his feet hard and urged the golden-scaled carp, "Hurry up! Get out of here!"

The golden-scaled carp was very intelligent and was already wary of the aura emitted by Ajia. Now that it received the order from its master, it naturally wanted to leave quickly.

I saw its huge body twisting in the air, and then it plunged into the clouds and disappeared.

Ajia watched the Star Envoy escape, and his left eye, which had been open, closed again.

Then, his body shook violently, as if he was in great pain, and he gritted his teeth and swallowed the fishy and sweet taste that surged in his throat.

Although he had anticipated this, it was undoubtedly a pipe dream to activate the Star God to do this with his battered body.

Even if he used the power of the Heart of the Stars to forcibly perform this method, the backlash he suffered was enormous, so great that it almost exceeded the limit he could bear.

Ajia staggered out a blood-red pill and threw it into his mouth.

The strong and disgusting smell of blood bloomed in Ajia's mouth, but Ajia was already used to it.

He reached out and touched his left eye. In his left eye... was the Heart of the Stars!

To be precise, it is half of the Heart of the Stars.

Ajia's thoughts drifted, recalling the time...

At that time, Ah Sheng used a secret method to evoke the aura of the Heart of Stars. Although Ah Sheng found the location of the Heart of Stars, the strange phenomena in the heaven and earth caused by the Heart of Stars also made other people aware of the appearance of the Heart of Stars.

Asheng knew that once the Heart of the Stars appeared, they would become the target of public criticism.

Therefore, Asheng directly split the Heart of the Star into two.

Give half to Ajia, and let Ajia hide nearby and refine this half of the Star Heart as soon as possible.

He kept the remaining half for himself, using it to lure others away from where Ajia was hiding.

According to Ah Sheng's original plan, as long as he could delay until Ah Jia refined half of the Star Heart, even if he only refined a little bit, the two of them would be able to escape safely with the combined efforts.

Even though the Star Envoy suddenly appeared and intervened, Ah Sheng did not panic. Instead, he was still planning in his mind how to escape from the chaos.

But Ah Sheng never thought that he would fall into Li Zhi's hands. If he could see the future, he would definitely not choose to leave towards the west gate.

Ajia walked to Asheng's side with difficulty. Seeing that his close friend who had shared joys and sorrows with him for many years was now without a breath, his heart was broken. He stretched out his hand tremblingly and gently stroked Asheng's cold face.

Suddenly, Ajia's whole body shook, and a gleam of light flashed in his right eye - he discovered that Asheng's Heart of Stars, which was originally hidden in his eyes just like his, had disappeared!

Ajia clenched his fists, digging his nails deep into his palms. He exuded a terrifying and dangerous aura.

He knew that the person who killed Ah Sheng must have taken the Heart of Stars. He gritted his teeth, his voice squeezed out from between his teeth: "Ah Sheng, don't worry, the Heart of Stars will not fall into the hands of outsiders! I will find that person, I will avenge you, and make him... live a life worse than death!"

He slowly squatted down and picked up Ah Sheng's body.

His gloomy eyes swept over the others who were still struggling to survive in the distance. A cold light flashed, and the screams stopped abruptly.

In the darkness of night, Ajia, holding the body of his former best friend, walked step by step towards the city gate in the lifeless Huwei City.
