The Strongest Prodigy Doctor

Chapter 911 - 1011: Escaping with One's Life?

Ye Tianfan didn't know how long he had been falling, nor did he know exactly how far he had fallen, as Ye Tianfan no longer had a concept of time; it seemed like ten thousand years, yet also like a mere second. Ye Tianfan felt himself come to a stop, and even touched the ground!Ye Tianfan didn't understand why after such a long freefall, he could still slowly touch the ground, but Ye Tianfan knew that he was now standing on solid ground again!

Though all around him was pitch black, standing on the ground made Ye Tianfan feel a sense of solidity!

Ye Tianfan attempted to howl a few times, but found he couldn't hear his own voice, so he gave up. Currently unable to discern direction and not knowing where Yu Yuju was, Ye Tianfan couldn't muster any spiritual power, and was left with no choice but to slowly walk in one direction!

Periodically, Ye Tianfan would look around to see if there was any hint of light anywhere.

But to his disappointment, Ye Tianfan didn't find any light, only endless darkness. Ye Tianfan sighed deeply, realizing that although he had cheated death, he was now stuck here, unsure of when he might get out. Without the ability to utilize spiritual power, it meant he couldn't summon food from the Xuanhuang Tower.

Furthermore, he couldn't use spiritual power to nourish his internal organs, yet Ye Tianfan found it curious that despite not having eaten for a long time, he didn't feel hungry.

Without spiritual power nourishing his organs, he should logically feel hunger, yet he didn't feel hungry.

Ye Tianfan found this very curious but soon dismissed the curiosity, reasoning that not feeling hungry was a good thing, as it meant he didn't have to worry about filling his stomach!

As Ye Tianfan continued to walk, he suddenly noticed a bright light, and he was thrilled, rushing toward the light. Upon reaching the source of the light, he discovered it was actually a passageway, and upon stepping into the passage, Ye Tianfan felt his spiritual power return!

Ye Tianfan hurriedly retrieved some pills from the Xuanhuang Tower, ones for healing injuries, replenishing spiritual power, and satiating hunger. Before Ye Tianfan could take out something to drink, the entire passage began collapsing, starting from the entrance where Ye Tianfan had just entered!

Ye Tianfan was startled but quickly reacted, immediately summoning his Flying Sword, topping it with the Xuanhuang Tower, accelerating forward. Ye Tianfan definitely didn't want to be buried by the collapsing passage.

However, as Ye Tianfan flew onward, he discovered that the collapse seemed to correspond with his flying speed; the slower he flew, the slower the collapse, and the faster he flew, the faster the collapse!

While Ye Tianfan was contemplating the reason behind this, he suddenly heard the sound of collapse speeding up behind him.

"What's going on? Why did the speed suddenly increase?" Ye Tianfan quickly increased his speed, then slowed down gradually to see if the collapse would slow down with his reduced speed. Ye Tianfan then noticed that after slowing to a certain speed, the collapse speed didn't reduce any further.

Ye Tianfan immediately understood that the collapse speed likely had certain thresholds, and the speed had already shifted to the second threshold; as long as he didn't slow below the minimum speed, it was okay.

Soon, Ye Tianfan realized that the minimum speed was rising once again, and Ye Tianfan could only adjust his speed to the lowest of this threshold. He silently calculated that the prior threshold was twice as high as this current one. If each threshold rise followed this multiplication, Ye Tianfan felt that a few more increases would mean he wouldn't keep up with the minimum speed!

How could he possibly deal with this? The exit seemed a long way off, and if he didn't find the exit soon, while the collapse speed reaches his maximum speed, he would end up buried here. That was worse than being back in the previous place! At least there, he didn't have to overly worry about safety!

Ye Tianfan considered this and decided to directly summon the Carefree Sword, proceeding at maximized speed toward the front, regardless of how fast the collapse was coming. As long as he increased his speed, he could reach the exit sooner; he thought, even in the worst-case scenario, he would be buried and die! Otherwise, he didn't want to experience the feeling of waiting for death slowly!

After making up his mind, Ye Tianfan directly summoned the Carefree Sword in mid-air, then performed a three-hundred-sixty-degree jump onto the Carefree Sword, while retracting the Fire Lotus Sword.

Any judges present would have given him a perfect score.

Upon stepping onto the Carefree Sword, Ye Tianfan's speed increased by several dozen times, but the spiritual power within him decreased visibly quickly!

And due to Ye Tianfan still being unable to fully control the Carefree Sword, a long stream of Power of Elimination trailed behind. Whenever the collapsing stones fell onto the Power of Elimination, they split in two, as if the Power of Elimination were a sharp blade!

The passageway was straight ahead with no slightest hindrance in the middle; Ye Tianfan rapidly advanced without encountering a single obstruction!

This allowed Ye Tianfan to breathe a sigh of relief because, if there were obstacles ahead, though he had the Xuanhuang Tower protecting him, it would still slow his speed down.

Finally, as Ye Tianfan flew with all his might, he saw a glimmer of light coming through ahead.

Seeing the light, Ye Tianfan's spiritual power rapidly circulated within him, and with a sudden burst of speed, he flew toward the light. Though unsure of what lay behind the light, the mere presence of light meant it was likely the outside world, or perhaps an illuminated area. If it led outside, it would mean escape; if it was light, it signaled people. Of course, it might be a trap, but whatever it was, it couldn't be worse than this!

Soon, Ye Tianfan stumbled out of the passage; once outside, he immediately collapsed to the ground, then heard a booming crash as the cave he had exited was completely sealed.

Lying on the ground, Ye Tianfan gasped for breath; the speed life-or-death scenario he had just experienced was not something he wanted to face again. After a while, Ye Tianfan's mood began to relax slowly, and he lifted his head, looked to the side.

Upon seeing the surrounding scenery, Ye Tianfan felt as if struck by lightning, standing dumbfoundedly in place, for even in his wildest dreams, he couldn't imagine that after traversing the dark depths, and sprinting wildly out of the passage, he had ended up here. Initially believing he had escaped, he hadn't expected to arrive here!
