Chapter 516 Spatial Tunnel

Davis's heart pounded in a frenzy.

Without missing a beat, once Princess Isabella entered as the second last, Davis instantly followed her into the spatial vortex as he flew into the dark swirling light!

Just when he turned back to glance, the Eighth Stage Expert was already at the boundary of the outer region, quickly making his way towards them. His silhouette was already visible.

Davis didn't dare delay and completely entered the spatial vortex which then closed as if it would wait for none.

In the next two seconds, there was no one there but a person suddenly appeared and gazed at the surrounding grasslands and the empty skies with a peculiar gaze.

Sensing the peculiar fluctuations in the atmosphere, he silently muttered, "Spatial Talisman?"

With a frown on his face, he instantly extended his Soul Sense.

======

5,000 kilometers away to the north, Davis's entourage appeared from the spatial vortex in pairs.

Lucas, Lucia, Su Hualing and all who had first entered had their facial expressions nervous as they saw the other eject out of the spatial tunnel in pairs.

Their traveling time was almost an instant. The moment they entered one side, they would exit the other side!

The spatial vortex instantly closed once the last person came out, only letting out spatial fluctuations in the location as it resonated around them.

As the last person to be ejected out from the spatial vortex, Davis didn't dare relax but instantly erected a soul force barrier with his Dark Concealing Shroud Art, concealing the 15-meter radius around him in soul force.

The Dark Concealing Shroud Art even concealed the spatial fluctuations that were existent around them.

The next second, Davis sensed the soul sense probe passing by them without a stop, stretching to the horizons.

Davis pursed his lips and heaved a sigh inwardly, knowing that it was the soul sense probe from the Low-Level Mature Soul Stage Cultivator who was none other than the Eighth Stage Essence Gathering Cultivation Expert.

The soul sense scoured the entire region for quite a while before finally being retracted, and even then Davis didn't dare to remove his soul force concealment.

"What happened?" By the side, Princess Isabella couldn't help but ask.

Davis heard her unperturbed voice and decided to enlighten her and everyone with what had happened.

When he finished explaining, he could feel Princess Isabella tremble slightly while the others even showed prominent reactions like letting out an embarrassing whelp.

The one who let out the embarrassing whelp was none other than his wife, Evelynn.

Nevertheless, the others had also let out reactions that weren't much worse.

And at this moment, the soul sense probe brushed past them again but failed to find them in the end as it retracted again after a few minutes.

Davis finally smiled and spoke in a tone that revealed his relief, "Everyone, the danger has been averted."

Only then did some people who held their breaths dare to breathe again as their faces flushed with exhaustion.

They looked at each other and couldn't believe that they had just escaped from an Eighth Stage Expert!

An Eighth Stage Expert was someone who was one step less from the top of the strength pyramid, and they had just escaped from an existence like that!

They couldn't believe it at all!

Jackson and Mulia's group were filled with suspicion.

Even now their eyes revealed some disbelief, wondering whether if they had been really chased by an Eighth Stage Expert.

But when they saw the powerful cultivators in the group visibly relax their stiff bodies, they had no choice but to believe that an Eighth Stage Expert had indeed chased them!

"A close encounter indeed... Fortunately, you acted rather quickly..." Daniuis heaved a sigh of relief and said to Davis with a hint of praise.

Davis couldn't help but nod his head to his Grand Uncle's statement.

Perhaps, if he had not acted quickly upon sensing the anomaly of the Eighth Stage Expert who was probing them, their entire group could have got captured once the latter had closed the distance.

Then they might have been handed over to the Tripartite Alliance or executed right at the spot once their identities have been confirmed.

That's why he had quickly chosen to take action and leave by using a spatial talisman which he had gotten from the loot of the Grand Elder of the Tripartite Alliance; the person who Princess Isabella killed.

From the Grand Elder's spatial ring, there were about 6 life-saving spatial talismans that could be used to escape through space.

The spatial talisman was nothing but an inscription that was made by Inscription Masters who knew spatial laws and its corresponding symbols.

Davis knew this information ever since he had learned about Inscriptions for a month.

While using the spatial talisman, he activated it with his essence energy and could get to decide the direction and the limited range that he could appear from the place he used it.

Then with his energy acting as a catalyst, he could shut the spatial vortex by himself and this was one of the features included in the spatial talisman he had used.

He didn't know about other spatial talismans other than the ones he had seen in Old Man Garvin's place.

At that time, the Tripartite Alliance Elders used life-saving spatial talismans to scram out of Old Man Garvin's tomb, escaping with their lives.

Recalling that scene, he felt his group and their group had both escaped from an Eighth Stage Expert. Although Old Man Garvin had been reduced to a weak state, he was once an Eighth Stage Expert nonetheless.

And as for why he didn't use the spatial talisman to escape when he was in the Royal Xuan City, it was because he felt that it was too wasteful.

Besides, once he used it, spatial fluctuation would erupt in their location and that means that they would have basically given off their location to the Tripartite Alliance.

Once they arrived 5,000 kilometers away from the initial location, perhaps, there would be a chance that they would be surrounded in a wide perimeter.

Davis took a deep breath and suddenly doubted if he could stand against an Eighth Stage Expert, 'Will I be able to kill that Law Sea Stage Expert with Fallen Heaven?'

Although the Eighth Stage Expert seemed to have a Sixth Stage Soul Forging Cultivation, it remained to be seen if the gap between their cultivation levels would allow Davis to kill him.

Theoretically, it should be possible since Fallen Heaven mostly seems to consider one's Soul Forging Cultivation when attacking the target's Soul Essence and Soul Imprint.

But then, Davis doubted that 'What if the expert used his Eighth Stage Essence Gathering Cultivation essence energy to protect his soul?'

'Wouldn't that effectively curb Fallen Heaven's prowess?'

He felt that he had to try this on someone to verify his conjecture!

"What now?" By his side, Evelynn asked in a low voice.

Davis still hadn't removed the concealment he had cast with his Dark Concealing Shroud Art.

He took the map of the Alstreim Family Territory that Jackson had bought in the merchant town near the Tripartite Alliance Territory Gate.

Giving a short glance at the map, he called Daniuis and his mother, "Which location is the best you two think we should head to?"

Princess Isabella blinked behind her mask, wondering why he hadn't called her for deciding a location to head to but then remembered that she didn't know anything about the Alstreim Family Territory.

She inwardly shook her head, wondering why she suddenly felt like this when she should be just following them to be safe and sound.
