"Get down!" 

Before anyone could answer Gao Shen, Blessed Elin already shouted at the same time as the tornado of dark impure energy burst all of a sudden. 

Wei Jiayi immediately hugged Gao Lan Mei to cover her and threw their bodies on the ground. 

Not only did the explosion send strong currents of spiritual energy on their way, but there were also rocks and other solid matter which shot out from within it into the air and landed all over the place. 

Slam! 

At the same time, a large chunk of silver matter that looked more like an artificially made rock shot pa.s.sed over their heads. It landed just behind them, and the force of the impact caused the ground to produce a hollow pit. The rock was smoking hot and immediately made them decide to run away from it. 

If not for Blessed Elin's warning, some would have lost their heads. That was too close for them. 

"The cage is being destroyed!" Juni declared almost freaking out. Why not? They were about to face a being that was not supposed to be free! 

Hearing that, everyone's gaze automatically s.h.i.+fted from the fallen rock to the chaotic mountain with dread.

The possible vision of the strongest enemy ready to face them or toy with their tiny lives was the worst they could imagine. 

Now, the sky on top of Mount Hua continued to rain and thunder. Its rumbles intensified as the pressure from the forbidding spiritual energy increased within the entire city. 

Some chunks of huge rocks had hit Blessed Elin's golems which caused them to shatter and be unable to fight. 

Three more giant Ice Golems were left in the battlefield, and Blessed Elin could not summon more with her current remaining supply of spiritual energy. Added to the fact was that she was still fighting the dark element inside Gao Lan Mei. 

Even Zhao Liwei had decided that it was best to go back to his mortal form to save himself.

The overall atmosphere kept them on their knees, with terrified expressions clear on their faces. 

Gao Lan Mei grabbed Wei Jiayi's hand. Her hand was cold as it trembled anxiously. His fingers grasped her hand tightly in support. 

The flairs of spiritual energy carried on inside the storm of impurities. Most of them were anxious to stand up, afraid that another chunk of rock would be sent their way. 

Even if they had Blessed beings with them, there was no guarantee on how long before they finally used all the help the divine spirits were currently giving them. 

Everything now depended on their will to continue despite the high possibility of sacrificing their own lives. 

Wei Jiayi, too, steeled himself. 'We need to leave here alive!' If he needed to break his own seal and get punished afterwards then, so be it! 

At that moment, she could not even stand up properly. The pain that caused by the dark element continued on. 'I cannot let this defeat me!' Gao Lan Mei vowed silently. 

If Gao Lan Mei had not been burdened by guilt, she would have also chosen to run away as that was the first time that she had really felt petrified. 

"We cannot stop." Gao Lan Mei said with determination. Whoever or whatever was sealed in the Immortal cage, she did not want to lose without a fight. 

Sadly not everyone thought the same as there were not many of them who still wanted to continue to fight. 

"I can't do this anymore!" 

"I don't want to die!" 

"I am getting out of here!" 

"I can't stand this!" 

Gao Lan Mei heard those who screamed in fear. Those who had already gotten themselves free from the sacrificial prism would more likely want to preserve their saved lives. 

Their voices were just not louder than the succeeding thunders from Mount Hua. 

She did not mind, and she would never force them to stay. 

"Stupid! Stay here! It is more dangerous out there!" Elder Gu from Sung Clan shouted in response to clan members who wanted to leave. He was unable to stop those that had just left without saying anything. He had done his best to hold onto some clan members who were still within his reach.
