Chapter 2398: Escape



Triala cut her communication off.

Sam had a deep frown as he turned to Naila.

"What is the immediate crisis she is talking about?"

"That..." Even before Naila could explain herself. Something happened.

*RUMBLE*

The earth shook. Sam's senses are at their sharpest as he observed everything within the vicinity.

"Fuck"

He cursed under his breath as he felt disaster that is about to befall on the city.

*BOOM*

With a loud explosion, Sam felt the ground under his feet collapse a bit and the whole building seemed to have become inclined. All the cultivators inside the building acted fast and rushed out of the windows, flying in the air.

They immediately went after the mortal plane and Astral plane cultivators to help them.

Sam and Naila also came out and they saw the spot with real damage. A few meters away from the spot there are in, the ground caved completely. The buildings and other structures just disappeared into the large hole along with its residents.

Sam expanded his senses into the whole and noticed that many people are rushing towards it. "DON'T HEAD IN THERE"

Sam yelled at the top of his lungs and rushed towards the hole. The divine plane cultivators reacted to his words. Maybe because they also saw what he did and they immediately made a wall to block the other Astral plane cultivators that are about to head in.

By the time Sam reached the place a large creature sprung out of the hole, like a gigantic tower. It is an earth worm like creature. But a bit different. Unlike other beasts that shared a similar nature, this creature didn't appear like it is made of flesh and blood.

Instead, its presence itself felt like a half alive and half dead creature. No... dead wouldn't be a proper word to describe it. Almost like an inanimate object. Like a golem or a puppet.

And many parts of its body seemed to have made of rocky scales. They are reminiscent of the scales of an earth dragon. Only, they don't have same sheen and strength as it did.

As the creature came up and tried rush into rest of the city, Sam conjured a spear of lightning and shot it.

*BOOM*Nôv(el)B\\jnn

The lightning pierced through its skin and tore into two. The worm fell back into the hole. Sam frowned and looked at Naila who came.

"Take care of your people. Tell them all to gather at the main building. I will be back in a few minutes."

He didn't even wait for a reply and charged into the hole alone.

Dia also followed Sam. He tasked her to sense the state of the ground in their path.

And the closer they are to the beach, the more undamaged the soil and ground are.

After they settled down there, Sam turned to Naila.

"You have some answering to do."

Naila nodded and walked with him to the side. Then she explained.

"We did identify some weird movements in the ground a while back. But to not alert the citizens, we didn't make it public.

However, we didn't know that the damage is to this extent. All he knew was that there are traces of land abomination lackeys trying to pry their way into our barrier of death energy and

some of them succeeded.

We didn't know the progress is this much."

"Then how did Triala know that it is an immediate crisis?"

"I obviously reported it to the leaders of other settlements."

"I would like to believe that the collapse of the city happening right during the lunch time is a pure coincidence. However, from my experience, coincidences are way too rare. So, I have to suspect that there is a traitor in your midst."

"What?" Naila was stunned.

"There is a good chance. But that is what not worries me the most. For there to be a traitor on your side, there should be someone on the other side that made a deal with them. Which means, they communicated with someone smart on the abomination's side. However, none of your information indicates tat there is a smart creature on their side. You only said the abomination has intelligence and all his lackeys run on instinct. So, either the traitor is directly communicating with the abomination, or the info is wrong."

"What should we do now?"

"We need to find you guys a new place. Make that traitor useless, and ensure that the

abomination cannot follow us."

"We cannot go anywhere. There is nothing on this side, but endless sea, and the other side is dominated by the Land abomination. We are stuck here."

"Not really. I don't want to say it is a coincidence, but it is. We have a place that will help you. However, it is a bit far away. Which will make it hard to move you guys there. That place is an island, so Land abomination cannot use the regular means to get there.

I can control the communication from there, so the traitor will be useless.

I think we should use the spatial transfer to send you guys there at the same time."

"But the Sky abomination...."

"Don't worry. I have a method for that. I don't know how he is doing it, but you said, he can

narrow down the location and even intercept the transfer process. I want to see how efficiently he can do it, when has to do it a hundred times simultaneously."
