Chapter 2308: A Fake Sky
Zu An’s thoughts moved extremely quickly. He didn’t immediately enter a state of despair, and instead focused on what he could do to survive.
The True Demon Emissary wasn’t an idiot. He definitely wouldn't put himself in a clear situation of despair. Judging from his records, it seemed he'd also been paying attention to the mountain’s changes. In that case, he had to have known that this place could be destroyed at any time.
The reason why he had made this the endpoint of the transportation formation, rather than somewhere in the True Demons' home, was for the sake of protecting his secrets. But there was no need to put himself in that much danger in order to preserve a secret. He definitely had to have prepared some method to respond to this kind of situation. So just what was it, then?
The first thing Zu An thought of was that there was no way they could remain on the surface if they wanted to avoid the terrifying cyclones. They could only go further underground. So was there an underground path?
But he quickly rejected that thought. He had scanned this entire place as soon as he arrived. If there were secret tunnels, he would have noticed immediately. Besides, the remains of the greatest mountain were all made of the toughest stone. Cutting open such a surface wasn’t too realistic.
He had thought about cutting a path underground himself, but before even considering whether or not he would be able to quickly cut into this stone that was tougher than diamond, he'd realized he would end up destroying the defensive formations around them as soon as he began. If that happened, all of them would be instantly torn to shreds by the terrifying winds.
He had the instant movement skill, but he couldn't bring away so many people with it…
He quickly gave up on that thought, and instead tried to think from the True Demon Emissary’s perspective. The only way to leave this place was another transport formation!
But the formation disc had been destroyed the moment they arrived. There were no signs of another formation disc nearby either.
