Calamity's Misdirection

Gu Shen's final strike had been extraordinarily effective.

Even he had not expected that the Ghost Mask paired with the Light Robe could unleash such a terrifying blow!

If the one facing him had not been Taotie, but Yuan Zhong... then taking that attack head-on without defending would most likely have ended with a "shattered Mental Sea."

Unfortunately.

Taotie was already an "unstable one." The Mental Sea of an unstable one was inherently in extreme disorder... Gu Shen's Mental Sea attack landing in his Mental Sea could not make him collapse outright.

"Whoosh..."

At the summit of Dry Cage Snow Mountain, the violently scattering snow fragments gradually fell back down.

Bai Xiu and the other two arrived beside Gao Tian.

"Taotie... escaped?"

Mu Qingyang looked in the direction Taotie had fled, somewhat unwilling to accept it. Gu Shen's strike had been so brilliant, yet it still had not been enough to keep him?

They had heard the conversation between Gao Tian and Gu Shen as well.

"I truly didn't expect it... this guy was actually an 'unstable one.'" Gong Zi narrowed his eyes as well.

"The top three in the Snow Cage are all peak fourth-rankers who have comprehended two laws, and they are evenly matched. The reason Taotie was ranked first... was because he had already lost control before being sent into the Tundra." Gao Tian said calmly, "After Mr. Zhou Jiren imprisoned him, he directly reserved first place on the Tundra's high-risk fourth-ranker list for him."

"So that's how it is." Gong Zi nodded. "When their strength is comparable, unstable ones are far more dangerous than normal people..."

Although the Tundra's criminals were all desperate fugitives.

They still had weaknesses—

Once a person had something they wanted, they developed countless weaknesses.

Wanting to live was the greatest weakness
