Chapter 1065 Successful Escape
The crackling sounds subsided, the orange-red flames gradually dissipated, and the temperature of the entire planet cooled down rapidly.

Metals that have liquefied at high temperatures will solidify again.

Everyone's gaze gradually returned to normal.

At this moment, the old man Gongshu was suspended in the air, panting heavily.

The supreme divine power within him was almost entirely consumed at this moment, becoming illusory.

The giant cannon behind him, which was bursting with world-destroying light, began to disintegrate and crack as Gongshu Laotou's divine power was depleted.

It is easy to see that at this moment, the old man Gongshu had exhausted all his strength and lost the ability to fight.

Conversely, Trembling, who was directly hit by the World-Destroying Cannon, was in an even worse situation.

His left shoulder had been destroyed along with the artillery fire.

The power of Gongshu Laotou's all-out attack was far beyond his imagination. In his current disheveled state, he was no longer the strongest member of the Dark Xing Organization.

He was half-bent over, and blood was constantly seeping from his left side.

It's no exaggeration to say that the power of Gongshu Laotou's attack surpassed his current level, but if he had had a chance to defend himself, he certainly wouldn't have ended up in such a miserable state.

Lin Yi activated his Gale Wings and landed beside Old Man Gongshu.

"Old man, I didn't realize you were so powerful. But you probably don't have the strength to continue fighting now, right? Shall we leave first? You know yourself, it's almost impossible for us to kill this guy, Trembling."

Using his gravity manipulation skill, Lin Yi gently supported Gongshu Laotou's body, allowing him to straighten up with difficulty. It must be said, Lin Yi was quite considerate, preventing Gongshu Laotou from losing face in front of the trembling.

Old Man Gongshu did not try to be brave.

What Lin Yi said was exactly what he was thinking.

Now that our objective has been achieved, it's time to retreat.

Seeing Lin Yi pull out a special item containing spatial fluctuations, Zhanli immediately shouted:
You two damn bastards, don't go! I haven't lost yet.

If Trembling were at its peak right now, stopping Lin Yi and the other person wouldn't be difficult at all.

But now, he was completely powerless, so how could he possibly stop Lin Yi and the other person from leaving?

Time passed second by second. The divine power and the Primordial Chaos within his body were repairing his injured body. The Dark Xing experts who had been controlled by the Soul Shock Strike also recovered from the state of their souls being separated from their bodies.

Unfortunately, both their souls and bodies have been damaged to varying degrees, making it impossible for them to continue the pursuit.

"Boss, we're sorry, we let you down."

Sixteen Dark Star experts, whose divine power far surpassed Lin Yi's, faced Lin Yi, yet this was the result—the level of humiliation was unprecedented.

So much so that these guys didn't dare let Trembling lend them a hand.

I'm trembling right now, my mind is a jumbled mess.

His claim of being the strongest was exaggerated; his plan to kill Gongshu De had failed, and he and his men were in mortal danger. The blow he suffered from the shock was no small matter.

Gongshu Ban's powerful strike was not only incredibly strong, but also produced a truly terrifying commotion.

This higher plane is the territory of the gods. If we don't leave quickly and are captured by the gods, the situation will become completely terrifying and out of our control.

Inside the spatial passage, Lin Yi used his own laws of creation and immortality to restore Gongshu De's condition.

The devastating attack just now was indeed incredibly powerful, but it also took a toll on Gongshu De, leaving him unable to continue fighting.

"Old man, you're really something. You managed to severely injure that guy with such skill. If he hadn't recovered in time, that attack of yours might have killed him."

Lin Yi's analysis makes a lot of sense.

However, Gongshu De was never an arrogant person; he respected the facts.

Moreover, without Lin Yi's help, the best-case scenario for that attack would have been that Gongshu De had the upper hand, but there were still sixteen experts behind him. If it weren't for Lin Yi, Gongshu De would have suffered a crushing defeat.

After such a life-or-death battle, Lin Yi's face showed no joy at surviving. As an old monster who had lived for ten thousand years, Gongshu knew very well that Lin Yi had not gone all out in the battle just now, and that he definitely had a backup plan.

In that instant, he finally understood what the fortune-telling genius meant.

Lin Yi was his life-saving material.

The person he should follow is Lin Yi, whose strength is currently inferior to his own.

"Don't you know very well that I couldn't possibly kill him? It's already a miracle that we managed to escape."

Next, the old man Gongshu praised Lin Yi extensively, but even so, Lin Yi showed no sign of pride.

Along the way, the two lamented the unpredictability of life.

Lin Yi could tell that what Gongshu De lamented most was the current state of the Dark Rising Organization.

Even though everyone has transcended the mundane, they still cannot escape the ugliness of human nature.

Even the most powerful being, Tremor, was like this.

Gongshu couldn't understand it. Could it be that the title of the strongest was not as important as the friendship between former colleagues?

They were each thinking about their own things.

Lin Yi was never one to take advantage of others' misfortunes, so he couldn't bring himself to suggest that Gongshu De should follow him.

After much deliberation, he decided to give Gongshu De the right to choose freely.

After successfully escaping the Formless Realm and reaching the animal realm of the Desire Realm, Lin Yi finally felt relieved and left through the spatial passage.

"Old man, what are your plans next? Will you continue to secretly pursue your interests?"

On a beach on an unknown planet, the sun is slowly setting.

When the golden light shone on Gongshu De, it made the already not-so-young man's face look even more weathered.

But when the afterglow shone through the dappled light at his temples, it clearly made him look even younger.

Lin Yi sat cross-legged on the beach with Gongshu De, feeling the damp sea breeze on his face and listening to the rhythmic sound of the waves crashing. It seemed that only in this way could the old man calm down a little.

Go back to the organization? No, I'm not.

Gongshu refused very decisively.

He hadn't done anything wrong in the whole affair, but he knew that if he went home now, he would be a sinner to the entire Dark Family.

Upon returning, Zhan Li was determined to deceive the other high-ranking officials, portraying his actions in protecting Gongshu De as incredibly valiant, claiming that only the elite troops of the gods could have defeated him in such a state.

He, Gongshu De, should have died at the hands of the gods.

If that's what Zhanli said, then at least he has a conscience.

If he says that Gongshu De's departure was a betrayal, then Gongshu Zaixing would become a rat that everyone wants to kill.

If that's the case, why should I go back?

The situation in Anxing is already chaotic enough.

The gods' relentless counterattack left Dark Star with no chance to breathe, and it was basically unable to withstand the onslaught, forced to retreat in defeat.

If I were to expose the feud between the two of them at this point, how much impact would it have on the Dark Rising organization?
