"How is that possible?"
Seeing Lin Yuan run even faster after taking his attack head-on, the former Truth Sect Leader's green eye flames nearly leaped out of their sockets.
"Not good, he's getting away!"
"Damn thief, give back the World Tree Heartwood!"
The former Truth Sect Leader roared and gave chase, but it was too late.
Lin Yuan had already reached the black mist.
"Heh, dumbfounded, aren't you? When it comes to taking a beating, if I rank second on the Authority Ranking, no one would dare claim first!"
Lin Yuan raced ahead, feeling thoroughly satisfied.
The former Truth Sect Leader's attack had indeed been powerful, but it was only a little stronger than the Lord of Storms' powerful finishing move from before.
With his whopping 10 billion HP and True Dragon Armor, Lin Yuan wouldn't have been afraid to stand still and let the former Truth Sect Leader attack him for a full minute.
That was the power of stats!
Looks like the Nether River is still relatively isolated.
After my battle with the Lord of Storms, the Apostles of the Endless Sea all know how tough I am.
But the Nether River Monarchs here clearly don't know about me yet.
Heh, you can only blame your own slow internet!
Lin Yuan quipped inwardly without slowing down, soon charging into the black mist.
He had carved a bloody path out, seemingly fighting several battles, but the first two had each been decided in a single strike. In the last one, he hadn't even fought, simply relying on his defense to force his way through.
As a result, he had taken almost no time at all.
Only after Lin Yuan charged into the black mist did the former Truth Sect Master arrive.
Several more Nether River Monarchs arrived soon afterward.
