Chapter 1037 - 576: A Wild God Is Still a God (Part 3)

Zhong Pan was startled with shock.

Yu Xiu’s face showed astonishment.

The elbow in Jin Jian’s hand fell...

Using the Dragon Girl to imprison all of them?! To evade Xu Jingtang’s pursuit?

What kind of bizarre idea is this? Such a strange thought process? Normal people can’t avoid the Dragon Girl fast enough, who would actively think of hiding in the Dragon Girl’s dream?

This idea is completely outside the priests’ mindset!

However...

After the initial puzzlement, along with considering the possibilities, Zhong Pan and Yu Xiu fell into contemplation!

Could it work?

It seems... it might actually be useful!

Only the Divine can suppress the Divine!

Wild Gods are still Gods, aren’t they!

Of course, the power of a Wild God like the Dragon Girl is certainly far inferior to the Sorrow God, and it is impossible to confront the Sorrow God directly.

The Dragon Girl’s power, used against Xu Jingtang, would hardly be effective either.

But...

What they need to deal with isn’t the Sorrow God’s corporeal form, but rather the curses inflicted by the Sorrow God upon them!

Once they enter the Dragon Girl’s dream realm and are enveloped by this Wild God’s Divine Power, the curse might not be removed, but there is a substantial possibility of it being isolated.

At the same time, though their bodies would still carry curses, firstly... their Divine Souls being extracted would put their bodies in a "vegetative" fake death state, the curse might not be effective.

Secondly, even if the bodily curse persists, with the curse’s force on the Divine Soul gone, Xu Jingtang’s ability to perceive them might weaken significantly!

Additionally, the "misfortune" Yu Xiu had worried about previously afflicts the Divine Soul; once covered by the Wild God, the misfortune would also be reduced.

"This... it seems..." Yu Xiu’s eyes brightened, "It seems worth trying."

Her mind rapidly turned: "The unicorn itself possesses sentience, even without a driver, it can continue carrying us towards Zhengyang Mountain, at most, occasionally our Divine Souls reuniting with our bodies, we’d need to steer a bit, and consume Pills for sustenance... and the unicorn not being in the Hundred Generations Garden last night means it doesn’t carry any curse..."

Zhong Pan’s breathing was rapid as well, he raised a hand to press his arm regretfully saying, "Unfortunately, I didn’t subdue the Mountain Lord, nor can I command it."

No... A tiger Wild God, even if it could be commanded, wouldn’t be of much use, can’t expect the Mountain Lord to eat our bodies and swallow us whole... Zhao Douan sarcastically thought.

The three of them deliberated and discussed carefully for half a day and felt this method could be tried.

Anyway, they still have a chance of teleportation, and some room for trial and error!

Immediately, the three didn’t delay further, hastily extinguished the bonfire, and dragged the sated and more drowsy Jin Jian into the carriage.

Zhong Pan whispered to the unicorn at its ear, explaining the direction to head to.

As for the safety of their Divine Souls entering the Dream Tower, it was not much of a concern.

Firstly, the carriage in motion is intangible, and those below the Worldly Realm cannot board.

Secondly, even if Zhao Douan activates the Dragon Girl, he won’t completely lose touch with the outside world.

Inside the carriage.

Zhao Douan glanced at Jin Jian, who was hugging his knees and nearly asleep, then looked at Yu Xiu, who was seated cross-legged meditating, waiting for Zhong Pan to enter the carriage and lower the curtains.

"Prepare." He took a deep breath, opened his right hand to grab, a Buddha Light appeared on his palm, a Green Lotus swayed, at its heart, a thumb-sized transparent Dragon Girl emerged slowly, veins and organs visible, under Zhao Douan’s summon, she looked up, her cold eyes simultaneously met the four pairs of eyes surrounding the lotus.

Eyes met.

"Snap."

The four closed their eyelids simultaneously, appearing dead.

At the same time, the rested unicorn shook its tail, neighed, and pulled the carriage back into the ethereal state, speeding fiercely towards Zhengyang Mountain.

...

...

Far away.

Amidst a dense forest, Xu Jingtang, in a state of rage, flew with the Lost God Power, his face as dark as the sky.

Using the connection between the Sorrow God and the curse, he could vaguely sense Zhao Douan and others’ location.

Besides, "fortune" would also cause both sides to coincidentally encounter.

"You can’t escape." Xu Jingtang’s eyes were bloodshot, murderous intent boiling.

Though he didn’t quite understand, it was roughly guessed that the other party was fleeing towards Yunfu.

"Could it be that they want to go the opposite way, thinking going to my stronghold would be safer?" Xu Jingtang laughed coldly.

If this group ran north, he might hesitate, but choosing to head towards my lair, isn’t that insanely foolish?

Suddenly, Xu Jingtang let out a light exclamation, feeling the curse’s connection abruptly largely vanishing, almost losing grip on Zhao Douan and the others!

Merely a faint remnant, which made his pursuit much more difficult.

"What’s happening? Did the curse get broken? Impossible..." Xu Jingtang didn’t understand.

If there was indeed a way to lift the curse, why is there still a trace of it, allowing him to barely pinpoint the general direction?

Confusing.

But having chased this far, it was impossible to turn back to Jingchuan City, and he had no choice but to continue chasing.

"Zhao Douan, I will personally claim your head!"

Xu Jingtang’s gaze was fierce, hesitated no more, continuing large strides to pursue towards Yunfu.
