Considering the special circumstances, the Martial Arts Departnt had instructions passed down,
in this trial, exceeding 300 Battle rits was considered qualified. If you have enough rits but still have concerns, just stay inside the base for these three days. After three days, the armored vehicles that brought you here will take you near the Taihu junction, out of the Void Realm. The armored vehicles will be escorted by military experts, and Cultists won’t dare to cause trouble.
During these three days, you can freely move within the base, cultivate, and also take this opportunity to exchange and familiarize yourselves with Martial Arts Geniuses from other schools.
As soon as Shentu Youshan finished speaking, Li Fu raised his hand and said,
"Then I won’t go."
If it weren’t for school assignnts, Li Fu wouldn’t have bothered coming.
Li Jia thought for a mont, then helplessly said,
"I’ve got enough too; I’m not going out."
His strength was at the bottom among the 300 trialists. He looked back on his previous experiences entering the Catastrophe Forbidden Zone with so fear.
Being able to co back alive was already lucky.
Wang Hongdao was unmoved.
He ca to the Void Realm to seek life and death trials, looking for a breakthrough.
He didn’t plan on going to the Catastrophe Forbidden Zone, just staying within the Oasis.
If he died due to bad luck, he would accept it.
That would an he was lacking in skill.
Lu Chenzhou decided to wander around the Oasis for the last few days, trying his luck, not venturing too far into danger. He was now at 900 Battle rits, only 100 short of exchanging for a Ba Snake Belt, not waiting for next ti. Belts were limited in exchange, first co, first served.
...
Cultivation, day 28.
The ninth zone.
On the edge of the Oasis, in the fog and miasma, a sturdy figure carrying a rifle moved forward. Lu Chenzhou’s high-level protective suit was also scarred. During this ti, the Void Things he encountered were demons, making the protection barrier fairly useless.
"This high-level protective suit, in the Human World, is quite good, but on the battlefield, long-term fierce battles cause the material to wear out too quickly.
The Cold Silkworm Robe is better, lightweight and imperceptible. The Cold Ice Armor not only resists attacks from the Spiritual Body but also resists physical attacks, and its own material is very tough and elastic.
Wearing it is like being covered in Full Body Force."
Lu Chenzhou was already coveting that vestnt robe.
A mountain wind blew from Black Bone Mountain far away, bringing fog and miasma. As Lu Chenzhou walked, he soon realized he could not see his own hands.
This kind of weather was common in the Oasis, known as "descending mountain fog," not a Heavenly Calamity, but the fog easily obscured vision and also contained so toxicity.
There was already a broadcast from the base.
[Descending mountain fog weather, all trialists be cautious...]
"Let’s head back,"
Lu Chenzhou, putting safety first, decided to leave.
"Giggle giggle..."
"Hehehe..."
"Wooo wooo..."
Strange moaning sounds ca through the wind, eerie and ethereal.
"The mountain wind brings... not just fog."
In the right-hand Daling acupoint, waves of chill erged, sotis slight, sotis strong.
This indicated the presence of many Void Things, of varied strength.
Suddenly, a rushed voice ca through the broadcast:
[Ergency broadcast! All trialists quickly retreat to the base! The Catastrophe Forbidden Zone is experiencing sudden mutations, a large number of Spiritual Form Void Things have appeared out of nowhere, floating along the mountain wind towards the Oasis, military Grandmasters and Martial Arts experts have already moved to intercept!]
Lu Chenzhou moved like the wind, rushing towards the base.
He couldn’t help saying,
"Just as the last few days end? Could it be related to the Cult?"
Yesterday the Cult attacked Li Guyi, today the Void Tide arrived. Spiritual Form Void Things, nobody wants to hunt those; once dead, they turn into Void Things, the sa in the Void Realm, besides practicing Martial Arts, there’s no benefit, just a waste of energy.
Before long, Lu Chenzhou erged from the fog. He turned his head to look, on the horizon, a massive grey fog wall about a kiloter high materialized, like a sandstorm sweeping forward, engulfing everything. Within the dense mist, balloons seed to float.
"Not balloons..."
Buzz buzz buzz!
Suddenly,
the protection field of the Advanced Protective Suit automatically lit up, radiating brightly when a huge, grinding stone-sized spectral entity collided with it. Upon closer inspection, it appeared to be a swollen human face resembling a floating corpse, pale like the white face in Beijing opera, with two red spots on the cheeks, eyes tightly closed, comical yet eerie, with streams of bloody tears and the corners of its mouth split to the roots of its ears.
It seed to be smiling.
"Hehehe..."
The most horrifying part was the face’s neck area, where a neck full of rotting flesh remained, with dense, massed blood vessels floating like tentacles, enclosing a fist-sized, pulsating object resembling a heart.
"What kind of Void Thing is this? It’s not in the guide!"
Lu Chenzhou’s hair stood on end.
The Protection Field was exceptionally powerful, blocking this blow. It was just a mid-danger Void Thing. Lu Chenzhou’s body twisted, his right hand moving like a swallow flying around a pillar, his golden palm engulfed by electric sparks, then he grasped a mass of unstable matter.
"Die for !"
A speck of golden light poured in, imdiately causing golden light cracks to explode on the surface of the grinding stone-sized face, and then golden light gushed forth like an exploding golden flask!
Boom!
The grinding stone-sized face disintegrated into nothing amidst a ghastly laugh, its blood vessel tentacles dissipating into a blood mist, and Lu Chenzhou finally saw clearly the heart it enveloped, his gaze narrowing.
It was the face of a woman, breathtakingly enchanting, sacred and solemn.
Like a Buddha, like an immortal, like a ghost, like a god.
"Damn, it looks like the Heart Happiness Sect is behind this!"
Lu Chenzhou couldn’t help but curse.
The heart reminded him of a person long disappeared, Chen Yongjing!
Lin Bin’s wife, Blood Feather Demoness... the heart with a human face.
All these were the handiwork of the Heart Happiness Sect.
Although he had easily eliminated a Void Thing, Lu Chenzhou dared not relax.
Whoosh... Bang!
A red light like a dragon ascending to heaven, burst through the mist and exploded in the night sky.
He fired a flare to request support from nearby military powerhouses. If it had only been ordinary specters, even if he was surrounded, he still had the confidence to break through.
But in a fleeting glance, he saw a giant human face as large as a house hanging high like the bright moon above the forest canopy, its grinding stone-sized bloody eyeballs rolling around, a dense, tide-like chill sweeping around, its neck’s blood vessel tentacles flailing like those of a great demon from the Northern Seas, encasing the heart.
Thud, thud, thud!
The heart pulsated like a beating drum.
Strange sound waves indiscriminately spread in all directions.
Lu Chenzhou’s spirit was shaken, instinctively trembling, the Bodhi Seed he carried pulsating with light, the spiritual bead bracelet emitting a warm glow to soothe the fear.
Inside the Inner Realm, Tiger Tai Sui stood with drawn sword, his expression solemn.
Mystic Tiger rose from its coiled position, gazing skyward, Tiger Tai Sui riding it, dragging its sword and plowing grooves into the ground, then slashed towards the void with a powerful stroke! Boom! The sword light, like a galaxy hanging in the sky, tore apart a sinister giant face that blotted out the sun.
"Jiejiejie..."
The eerie laughter echoed, gradually fading.
Lu Chenzhou snapped back to reality, sweat gushing from his forehead, veins bulging.
He took a deep breath and fortified his spirit, murmuring,
"From such a distance, it’s still so terrifying, it’s a Shadow Level peak specter..."
In so inexplicable way, as if protected by heaven and countless Martial Arts predecessors, had he not possessed the spiritual bead, had he not cultivated the Bodhi Technique and the Tiger Demon Tai Sui Technique, with Lu Chenzhou’s spiritual power and Martial Arts Will, he might have lost his composure just now.
In a race against ti, once he lost composure,
it would be being engulfed by the mist, a thousand ghosts piercing his heart!
Compared to demons, Martial Artists hate specters more. On one hand, specters are naturally immune to most physical attacks, and on the other, their thods are incredibly bizarre.
The mist wasn’t moving very fast. Occasionally, so ordinary Void Things swept up by the mountain wind hit him but were blocked by the protective barrier, so Lu Chenzhou didn’t bother killing them. Relying on multiple layers of protection, his legs ran like the wind, always staying a step ahead of the mist with the help of the mountain wind.
He sensed a Martial Arts aura approaching from ahead.
He knew he was saved.
"I’m glad my Tiger Form Body Technique excels at utilizing the wind for rapid movent..."
Suddenly, Lu Chenzhou’s back hair stood on end.
Only to see the mist a hundred ters behind him violently dispersing, that two-story-tall human head that was far away just monts ago now appeared abruptly as if teleporting, an unimaginable oppressive force coming forth, making Lu Chenzhou feel like he was falling into an abyss, a bone-chilling cold piercing to the core!
