Urban Immortal Cultivation Supreme

Chapter 195: An Attack



The eight people who had crossed over on their own skills all looked at Zhu Bufan with admiration.

In fact, they did not lack the desire to rescue others, but due to their insufficient strength, if they attempted to carry someone across the glass bridge, they would undoubtedly be thrown off the cliff, so they didn't dare to try.

Zhu Bufan cast a deep glance at the ghostly old man and then took a step onto the glass bridge, determined to bring all the remaining six trainees over.

In just an instant, Zhu Bufan arrived by the side of two individuals.

Seeing that Zhu Bufan truly came to rescue them, the two were excited and wanted to move closer to him, but as soon as they moved, the glass bridge flung them away from Zhu Bufan. He had already reached out to grab them; had they not moved, he might have succeeded, but they did, so he missed. A look of helplessness crossed Zhu Bufan's face; he could only quickly grab the two others who were closer to him, then he ran back towards the opposite mountain peak.

The two who had been flung away due to their movement were now filled with regret. Why did they have to move? If they hadn't, they would have been safe already. Their eyes nearly turned green with envy.

But there's no medicine for regret in this world, and they could only watch Zhu Bufan grab the other two and dash toward the other mountain peak.

Before long, Zhu Bufan reached the old ghost, setting down the two he had saved, then he turned and once again dashed onto the glass bridge.

However, this time, when Zhu Bufan stepped on the glass bridge again, the vibrations had intensified significantly. He felt it carefully—it was at least twice as strong as before. Zhu Bufan was alarmed and instantly turned his head to look at the ghostly old man.

Yet the old man still appeared indifferent, as if the matter had nothing to do with him. But Zhu Bufan knew that the increased vibration of the glass bridge was definitely related to him.

Gritting his teeth and looking at the remaining four people on the glass bridge, Zhu Bufan braced himself and surged forward.

At this moment, the group on the safe side watched the vibrating glass bridge with alarm, especially the four who had been saved by Zhu Bufan, who now looked at his back with even greater concern.

Without Zhu Bufan, their fate would have been to fall straight into the abyss, so they were deeply grateful to him.

With the vibrations intensified, Zhu Bufan's spiritual power was consumed at a much greater rate, as he was using his spiritual power to control his body to advance forward in sync with the movement of the glass bridge.

Now, Zhu Bufan's pace was clearly not as fast as before, and the positions of the four people on the glass bridge were not as stable as earlier, swaying chaotically.

This meant that even if Zhu Bufan reached someone, he might not necessarily be able to grab them immediately, thus significantly increasing the difficulty of his rescue efforts.

This forced Zhu Bufan to save them one by one.

Ten minutes later, Zhu Bufan's spiritual power had been largely depleted, but there was still one girl on the glass bridge—the same cold woman who had caught hold of Zhu Bufan initially.

Having been fearful of the Courage Bridge from the start, and now, with its severe vibrations, her face couldn't just be described as horrified; it had to be described as desperate.

Her face was streaked with tears, her body trembling non-stop, coming close several times to being flung off into the abyss.

But her eyes were fixated firmly on Zhu Bufan, filled with helplessness, despair, and resentment!

Zhu Bufan watched the continuously shaking glass bridge, wiped the sweat—unsure if it was due to the heat or his depleted spiritual power and bodily exhaustion.

Shaking off the sweat from his hands, Zhu Bufan stepped onto the glass bridge once more.

This time, Zhu Bufan's progress was very slow. His spiritual power had been significantly drained; supporting his body to move forward was now a laborious task. However, Zhu Bufan had no intention of giving up on saving the girl.

All along, the old ghost watched with cold indifference.

At this point, these several trainees could no longer hold back.

"Ghost Man, please save that girl!"

"Yeah, Ghost Man, please save her!"

...

However, Ghost Man coldly responded, "I've already mentioned before the Glass Bridge that those who fear, those who cannot cross this bridge, should tell me immediately, and I would arrange their departure. But did they listen to me? Since you have made your choice, you must bear the corresponding consequences."

Everyone's face showed helplessness; Ghost Man had indeed said so in the beginning.

The few who had been rescued by Zhu Bufan could only lower their heads, not knowing what to say in response to Ghost Man.

Zhu Bufan slowly moved forward and finally, after spending five minutes, he approached the woman. Zhu Bufan was about to reach out and grab the girl when, at that moment—

"Bang..."

A gunshot resounded.

A bullet whizzed past Zhu Bufan's fingers. Luckily, Zhu Bufan's quick reflexes allowed him to dodge the bullet. Otherwise, Zhu Bufan's arm would have definitely been 'blossomed'.

Then came several more shots.

"Bang bang..."

Zhu Bufan had no choice but to evade these shots. While dodging the bullets, Zhu Bufan scanned the source with his Supreme Eyes.

Very soon, Zhu Bufan spotted a sniper lying on the other side of Courage Bridge. The sniper was clad in grey camouflage attire with a hat on his head, and his face was smeared with green paint. His eyes intensely focused on Zhu Bufan on the glass bridge, preparing to take Zhu Bufan down with a single shot.

After the first shot rang out, the 15 students and Ghost Man at the far end of Courage Bridge furrowed their brows. Especially those who had been saved by Zhu Bufan were worried about their hero.

"Teacher Ghost Man, I know the swaying of this Glass Bridge must be related to you. At this time, I hope you can stop it!" A woman stepped forward to speak, this woman, brought along by the middle-aged woman, had a similarly cold expression, but her unique military aura was fully displayed.

Ghost Man looked at the girl who was the first to dash across the Glass Bridge. His brow furrowed, and after a while, he said, "Stopping the swaying of the Glass Bridge now would be the greatest harm to them. Once it stops, there would be no cover on the glass bridge. The glass bridge's movement offsets the sniper's aim, understand?"

Ghost Man shook his head, sighed, and was about to step onto the Glass Bridge to rescue the two people, but, just as he took a step, an explosive was thrown towards him.

He had no choice but to swiftly retreat backward while shouting loudly, "Move, retreat to the mountains! Hurry."

The 15 students also saw the explosive thrown their way, their hearts shocked, and reluctantly and painfully retreated into the mountain.

On the bridge!

Zhu Bufan kept dodging the sniper's attacks while also looking for an opportunity to save the woman.

Finally, the moment came.

After firing so many shots, the sniper's bullets finally ran out. During this brief lull, Zhu Bufan lunged toward the woman and grabbed her hand.

At this moment she had been frightened out of her wits, completely stupefied, letting Zhu Bufan firmly pull her.

However, the two of them were not so lucky.
