Lu Chen had thought that if only two people had co, they couldn’t possibly be martial artists from the Bone Refinent Realm.
What he hadn’t expected was that they were actually from the Visceral Refinent Realm!
He had never faced two martial artists from the Visceral Refinent Realm at the sa ti before!
"Although I have the strength to kill a martial artist from the Visceral Refinent Realm, I definitely can’t withstand a blow from them!"
Recalling the deadly duel with Wu Chiren, that sword strike was comparable to the Visceral Refinent Realm. If he hadn’t thrown his spear with the ’Spear Strikes the Sky’ technique, catching his opponent off guard, he probably wouldn’t have had the chance to hide here today!
"Are they martial artists from Heavenly Book Academy?"
In the darkness, Lu Chen furrowed his brows. Although he had not been at the academy for long, he had already seen quite a few martial artists.
Even on the life-or-death platform, countless teachers from the Soul Refinent Realm had shown up!
But now that he thought about it, he had never seen a student from the Visceral Refinent Realm!
So...
They’re not from Heavenly Book Academy?
"Let’s just wait and see for now. If they ca here by chance, there’s no need to start a conflict with them!"
Lu Chen held his breath, and just then, the two n began to speak.
"Third Brother, has that person gone into hiding?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Chen’s breath almost stopped completely!
These two weren’t here by accident; they were looking for him!
"Impossible. We only saw a little bit because we had the high ground. No matter how strong he is, he’s just in the Bone Refinent Realm; it must be a coincidence."
"Also," The martial artist continued before Third Brother could ask a question, "in the Lower Heavenly Abyss, our sight is hindered and the distance has increased, so it’s normal not to see him!"
"Just wait for him to make so noise, and we’ll naturally be able to discern the direction. There’s only one path through this Lower Heavenly Abyss, let’s just follow it slowly."
Third Brother thought for a mont and found it to be reasonable. He glanced deep into the abyss, where everything a hundred steps away was shrouded in darkness.
"Let’s go!"
As the two n left, Lu Chen felt both relieved and elated.
"Should I... launch a surprise attack on one from behind, and then fight the other head-on?"
Facing a single martial artist from the Visceral Refinent Realm, Lu Chen had so confidence and could even use the opponent to fully test out the Heavenly Inquiry Spear technique empowered solely by Fire Spiritual Power.
But deep down, he felt sothing wasn’t right.
This area was the very outskirts of the abyss.
Could it be...
They were testing him?
Hiding in the crevice, Lu Chen couldn’t see the road in the Lower Heavenly Abyss and couldn’t use his pupil technique to clearly see their actions.
"I can’t take any risks," Lu Chen thought to himself, "Even if I win the bet, I’d still have to take the risk of battling one person! If I lose the bet, it would be the end of everything!"
Knowing that they had co looking for him, Lu Chen still felt that it was best to play it safe.
In this abyss, he had no allies!
With this in mind, he decided to stay in the crevice for at least an hour!
By then, within the abyss, he could fully use his pupil technique to detect them first!
As the night deepened, roars from various beasts occasionally echoed through the abyss.
In the extre quiet, you could actually hear that these roars were coming from very far away.
Monsters naturally preferred to move at night, and the darkness of the abyss indeed made it their sanctuary. No wonder both Heavenly Book Academy and so ordinary martial artists liked to co here to train or search for treasures.
Amid Lu Chen’s wild thoughts, ti flew by swiftly.
Watching the full moon slowly move westward, an hour blinked by.
"It should be about ti!"
Lu Chen was sure he hadn’t been detected, and if the others were testing him, they couldn’t possibly wait this long.
He quietly crawled out from the crevice, stretched his sowhat stiff body, and was just about to grasp his spear when a rapid series of footsteps sounded from below!
Lu Chen’s heart tightened at the closeness of the footsteps, and it was too late to hide back in the crevice!
He quickly lay down, using the knee-high weeds on both sides as cover, and carefully concealed himself.
Just as he had hidden, a strong sll of blood followed!
Lu Chen’s mind stirred – had the two Visceral Refinent Realm martial artists been injured?
What could have injured them?
Was it an extraordinarily powerful monster?
While he was pondering this, the footsteps headed straight for the crevice!
"Hurry, it’s too late to escape now. Let’s hide here for now, and then go back into the abyss later!"
Lu Chen hadn’t yet determined if this was the voice of the two martial artists he’d heard earlier when a woman’s voice rang out!
"You get in there, and I’ll hold them off!"
As soon as she finished speaking, a strange laughter followed.
"Hehehe, I didn’t expect to encounter you here... it truly is a small world for enemies to et!"
"Xu Family’s Third Brother, don’t you dare go too far!"
The woman yelled sharply, and Lu Chen heard the whoosh of sothing cutting through the air!
Suddenly.
"Bang!"
The woman grunted and fell heavily beside Lu Chen!
