46: The passage is closed!
After realizing that the thing in the sinkhole was not chasing him, Chu Yuan felt relieved and prepared to return to the stone platform.
According to the data, the strongest entity in Secret Realm No. 7 was supposed to be the leader of the Blood Beasts, a creature that had just entered the Fourth Realm.
Although a Blood Beast of this Realm was powerful, it wouldn't be impossible to fight if the strongest Inner Breath Realm trial-takers joined forces...
But now, there was clearly an unexpected change.
Chu Yuan felt that even if all the trial-takers this time were tied together, they wouldn't be able to withstand a single slap from that giant beast.
Moreover, there was that Martial Artist above the giant beast who looked just like a villain... Chu Yuan seemed to have an impression of the medal he was toying with in his hand;
It was issued internally by the military, and almost all of its owners possessed powerful strength!
The medal was deformed and twisted, and there were even bloodstains remaining on it... It couldn't possibly be that Martial Artist's own.
Chu Yuan prepared to exit the crack and go outside to explain the situation;
Anyway, he had sufficient points, and now that all the Blood Beasts had run to the sinkhole, even if others wanted to continue killing, there were no Blood Beasts left for them to kill...
When returning, he didn't activate the Luo Yan Step again, because he might encounter trial-takers at any time;
That might cause some potential trouble, more or less.
But he would still kill the Blood Beasts he passed by along the way...
Just after strangling four or five Second Realm Blood Beasts, Chu Yuan's gaze shifted, looking at a spot in the dense forest;
Two figures were walking over.
One was a girl with a pretty appearance, wearing a 'Yuwu High School' uniform;
One was a boy wearing a black satin training suit... It was exactly Li Ji.
As their eyes met, Li Ji was stunned for a moment, appearing somewhat surprised;
But then, seeing the dirt on his body from being trampled by Blood Beasts... a hint of contempt appeared in his eyes.
He didn't know how Chu Yuan survived in Wang Cheng's hands, but if mere Blood Beasts could make him look this disheveled, this Chu Yuan wasn't worth his attention...
"Hey, did you run over from the front?" The girl asked, hugging her arms: "What happened in front?"
"There is a 'treasure' in front, and all the Blood Beasts in the entire Secret Realm have gone there.
I am not a match, so I retreated." Chu Yuan said 'sincerely'.
"Pfft~" The girl seemed somewhat disdainful and asked again: "What about Wang Cheng? Have you seen Wang Cheng? The boy who was with us?"
Chu Yuan asked in confusion: "Your companion, and you're asking me if I've seen him?"
The girl's answer was somewhat beyond Chu Yuan's expectations, and she said righteously: "Wang Cheng went to intercept and kill you, so what, didn't you meet him?"
Chu Yuan didn't expect her to say it so naturally, and was actually angered into a laugh;
"Heh~"
"What is that expression of yours?" The girl frowned, seeming somewhat Life Qi;
She drew the dagger from her cuff and took a step forward.
She had heard of this guy, although she didn't remember his name, Li Chen's death seemed to have something to do with him.
Of course, she didn't actually care whether Li Chen died or not;
It was just that someone within the Family was taking their anger out on him, so killing him while they were at it would be fine...
Just at this moment, Li Ji suddenly turned his head to look to one side;
Two more people had chased Blood Beasts to this place.
Seemingly attracted by the liveliness here, these two people didn't care about the stampeding Blood Beasts, but instead moved toward this side...
"Yo, isn't this that so-called Li Family young master?
What, bullying people here again?" A sarcastic voice came over, full of ridicule;
Chu Yuan looked towards the sound and saw that their uniforms were printed with the words 'Shenwu High School'.
Are they people from the Divine Capital?
The boy who spoke had hair hanging to his shoulders and walked with a slouch, possessing a nasty, playboy temperament.
And the person who could be with this kind of scum was naturally not a decent character either, with a chubby figure, and a pair of squinty eyes scanning up and down on the girl, as if wanting to penetrate even her uniform.
Li Ji seemed to know them, and being a man of few words, he finally spoke: "What does it have to do with you?"
"Tch~ some people, having a Seventh Realm Great-Grandfather at home makes them act maverick, pretending like a grandson;
If someone who didn't know saw him, they would think his father was a Martial God~" The other party continued to be sarcastic, drawing out his tone.
"That's still better than some people who act like street thugs all day, smearing excrement on their Family's face!" The girl beside Li Ji spoke, her expression full of disgust.
The long-haired youth didn't seem to care, looked at the girl and smiled without warmth: "Are you this poser's fiancée? What was her name? Fatty, do you remember?"
The fat man beside him had the flesh on both sides of his cheeks twitch, and he shook his head: "Don't remember, from some small Family... Why would I remember her?
But her tits aren't small..."
Chu Yuan looked at the thick school uniform on the girl, not understanding how that fat man could tell, was this also a talent?
Li Ji and the girl's faces turned black, the girl glared fiercely and gripped her dagger tightly;
"What, want to fight!?" The long-haired boy raised his voice and rolled up his sleeves: "You guys want to rebel!? Fatty, clean them up!"
The fat man licked the corner of his mouth and smiled foolishly, pointing at the girl: "I want to fight her."
"Are you aiming to fight? I'm even embarrassed to expose you..."
Seeing that both sides were about to make a move, Chu Yuan didn't bother to get involved and, with a movement of his body, activated the Luo Yan Step and left;
Li Ji's eyes focused, this speed... No wonder Wang Cheng didn't take down the opponent!
I'm afraid the other party, like himself, had already entered the Inner Breath Realm!
Even thinking of the worst-case scenario, whether Wang Cheng was still alive... was a matter of doubt...
The two boys who came later didn't care about Chu Yuan's departure at all, their eyes only holding a desire for battle, and they strode toward Li Ji and the other.
...
Afterwards, he didn't encounter any more weirdos, only Blood Beasts that were still coming in an endless stream;
Chu Yuan successfully returned to the stone platform and found that there were already quite a few people on the platform!
A rough count showed at least two or three thousand!
They seemed to have nothing to do, either gathered together talking, appearing worried;
Or Cultivating, or resting with their eyes closed.
But no matter what they were doing, they couldn't hide the anxiety and sorrow between their brows;
A repressive atmosphere was spreading in the air...
Chu Yuan's heart skipped a beat, and he raised his eyes to look at the Secret Realm exit that was within reach;
If these low-Realm trial-takers wanted to accumulate points, they would naturally hunt Blood Beasts in the depths of the Secret Realm;
If they wanted to give up, they should have already left through the Secret Realm exit... What was going on with them gathering here?
It couldn't be for fun, right?
He already had some guesses in his heart, exerted force under his feet, and dove into the vortex;
But the Secret Realm exit seemed to have turned into a light and shadow phantom at this moment!
The next moment, Chu Yuan did not appear in the outside world, but fell back onto the stone platform...
His heart sank.
The passage... had a problem?
"Don't waste your energy, you can't get out... We have tried many times, so many of us here." A helpless sigh sounded behind him.
"We speculate that the passage can only be used after the five-day trial ends." Chu Yuan looked back, the person talking to him was a petite girl, her face full of distress, her small melon-shaped face crumpled into a ball.
"You must also feel it's too dangerous and want to quit the trial, right? Do you want to go find some food and water together?
By the way, let me introduce myself, my name is Tian Tian."
Chu Yuan spoke slowly: "So, in your speculation, the information left by the military in the terminal is wrong?"
The military wasn't some shoddy amateur organization; for a trial of this level, the information in the terminal must have been checked countless times, how could they give the trial-takers wrong information?
It simply made no sense!
The expression on Tian Tian's face stiffened, and she said unnaturally: "Maybe... people always make mistakes..."
