Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

Chapter 184: Chapter 184: The Apocalypse - I Am Not the Holy Mother 91

Looking at the gigantic crevice on the ground, everyone couldn’t help but swallow in fear. If it weren’t for Lin Shuangshuang’s quick reaction, wouldn’t they all have been smashed into the depths of the earth!

The body of the giant serpent was incredibly long, winding its way from another cave, with its head nowhere in sight! But just by seeing the size of its tail, one could understand how immense this serpent must be!

The only reaction everyone had was to run! At the very least, they had to get out of this cave!

Though the cave was large, it didn’t have enough space for them to contend with such a massive creature. Both the use of superpowers and the serpent’s power were considerable. Once the chaos erupted, they might all be buried alive if the cave couldn’t withstand it! So, the urgent task was to escape the cave as soon as possible!

At this moment, the serpent’s tail had already risen again, sweeping fiercely in their direction! However, perhaps because it couldn’t see them, the tail missed everyone and struck the cave wall beside them instead! fre(e)webnove.l.c.om

With this strike, a long crevice stretched rapidly from where the tail hit, extending toward the direction in which everyone was fleeing! The surviving stalactites suffered calamity once more, clattering down repeatedly!

The thing everyone feared the most happened. After the serpent’s tail attacked twice, the entire cave started shaking, and stalactites continuously fell amidst the tremors. As everyone ran unsteadily, they also had to dodge the falling stalactites.

The tips of these stalactites were extremely sharp. Coupled with their large size, if they fell from above, their impact would be equivalent to countless sword blades attacking from above. Even if not killed, one would be severely injured if struck! .com

During their frantic run, they could hear the screeching sound of scales scraping the ground behind them, probably the giant serpent pursuing them. They all ran desperately, wishing for eight more legs, using every ounce of strength they had!

Despite using the fastest speed of their lives, they felt the creature closing in, even smelling the thick reptilian stench!

No one dared to look back, fearing that they’d see an impending maw ready to swallow them all. Yet, they couldn’t stop their minds from imagining the horror chasing them, growing more terrified as they did!

Before even seeing the serpent’s face, they were already half terrified by their imaginations, the hairs on their backs standing on end. Especially when a strange stench blew over with the wind, everyone involuntarily shivered, goosebumps rising all over!

Everyone ran with stumbling steps on the unsteady ground, not daring to stop or let themselves fall. Along the way, Lin Shuangshuang and Chi Shaolong, who ran the most steadily, had to take turns carrying Zhang Ling, also helping the staggering Song Yuhang, Li Wenxuan, and Li Wenbo.

Zhang Ling’s face was pale as paper because she kept using her spiritual power to attack the serpent’s brain area, hoping to hinder its movements. But judging from the sound, each of Zhang Ling’s attacks only slowed the serpent’s actions slightly.

Now that Zhang Ling had exhausted her spiritual power, the problem was that while mutated creatures can recover physical and mental energy and speed up healing and restore superpowers, there is no way to recover spiritual power.

Though Zhang Ling’s spiritual attack was not very effective, it bought the group some time to escape, ensuring they would not be caught by the serpent. Now, in some narrower parts of the path they traversed, the serpent had to forcefully squeeze through, widening the cave walls. freeNovelFire

This slowed the serpent down considerably, yet they could still hear the violent vibrations of the serpent forcibly widening the narrow passage and its furious hissing!

The cave shook even more violently, with cracks appearing on the walls and ceiling, as if about to collapse at any moment, filling everyone with dread, worried that the cave would cave in the next second, burying them alive!

Without time for fear, all they could do was run faster, faster, and even faster!

Only by quickly escaping the cave could they get closer to safety. Otherwise, if not killed by the serpent, they’d be crushed by falling stalactites.

Cracks had already appeared on the stone ceiling, with large rocks tumbling down along with still-attached stalactites, rolling toward everyone, growing larger and more constant, so dense that they couldn’t completely avoid them.

Forced into a corner, they could only use their superpowers to deflect the stones about to hit them, but this rapidly consumed their superpowers. With a more dangerous serpent in pursuit, they all knew the outcome if their powers ran out.

However, there was no choice. If they got injured here, death would be immediate, with no future to speak of. Urgently facing the present crisis was all they could focus on.

Having just deflected a blocking boulder, a shadow suddenly loomed over their heads in the next step! Everyone looked up; a massive rock fell from the cave’s top, crashing toward them at such a close distance, it was impossible to dodge!

After running all this way, everyone’s superpowers were nearly depleted, insufficient to deflect such a massive rock! Despair cast a shadow over everyone’s hearts. Were they really going to die here today? The feeling of unwillingness gripped everyone’s heart.

At the critical moment, Lin Shuangshuang tossed Zhang Ling onto Chi Shaolong’s back, her Thousand Silk Entanglement shooting out almost instantly as she let go, wrapping the giant rock overhead and flinging it back toward the pursuing giant serpent!

Only then did everyone remember that Lin Shuangshuang was a dual practitioner of inner strength and superpowers. With superpowers depleted, inner strength could still hold on for a while, keeping death at bay. Spirits lifted, they resumed their frantic escape.

The sound of the rock hitting something and the serpent’s angry, pained hissing erupted simultaneously behind them, but they paid it no heed and continued running forward.

Lin Shuangshuang continued commanding her Thousand Silk Entanglement, capturing the falling rocks overhead and tossing them backward, regardless of whether they hit the serpent. The top priority now was to escape the collapsing cave!

Through everyone’s desperate sprint, they finally saw the exit glowing up ahead. Joy filled their hearts, and the originally tired, heavy legs were filled with new strength!

With renewed vigor, their legs moved so fast they seemed to blur, like wind and fire wheels, finally dashing out of the cave at the last moment before it collapsed. Almost as soon as they left, the thunderous sound of a massive cave-in echoed behind them!
