Chapter 29: Fright in the Cave

  Update 2 for today~~~

  "Everyone in this bloody cave, be careful, rely on your own luck, I hope you all can find a suitable demon guard." Liu Sheng said that and then walked forward with big strides.

  Zhang Chong, Shi Wenlong and Xiao Tian also bid farewell one after another, and then each chose a path to walk slowly.

  In the Blood Cavern, there are many mysteries. When a cultivator of demonic arts first enters this place, the aura of yin and evil will naturally combine with the demonic energy on the cultivator's body, guiding them to refine their demonic guard. Therefore, in this process, each cultivator must try to separate themselves as much as possible, so that the demonic energy can sense the aura of yin and evil.

  And the terrain in this Blood Cave was not only extremely complex, but also enormous. Just the area occupied by the Longevity Gate alone, Zhang Chong estimated that even if he ran at full speed, it would take him two days to circle around it once.

  So there's no need to worry about being too narrow-minded.

  Zhang Chong walked casually, the surrounding gloomy aura made his body feel a chill, but the magic and gloom aura had no reaction at all.

  It's no wonder, because he didn't have any magical powers to begin with, so where would the feeling come from?

  And every time he saw a cultivator of magic suddenly rush to the side stone wall, insert his hand into it, and start digging desperately, his heart would thud with a "dang" sound, thinking that another cultivator had started refining.

  If it came down to the last one and he was the only one left without a magic guard, that would be an ugly sight.

  Thinking of these things, Zhang's face was still not a bit flustered, and he continued to walk slowly. In the meantime, he also tried twice to dig at the stone wall.

  However, the result of using brute force was nothing other than finding that the stone wall was as hard as iron and his fingers were sore.

  "Only when the magical power has a reaction can you take action." Later on, there was already a powerful being at the divine level who couldn't bear to watch and kindly reminded him.

  Zhang Chong nodded to the guard and continued walking forward. This time, his gaze was not only directed at the stone wall, but also at the ground around him. In his heart, he thought that if he was lucky, he might be able to pick up a few more, which would be great.

  Unknowingly, he had slowly walked into the depths of the Blood Cavern, to the edge of the area defined by the Longevity Gate.

  Suddenly, a strong gust of wind came from behind him. In that split second, Zhang Chong felt a hint of danger, which also caused him to raise his body to its limits in an instant.

  "Shén Xíng Bǎi Biàn" of "Tà Biàn Bā Huāng"

  His body was suddenly as vague as a mist, and his rapid movement produced an extremely small shockwave, which seemed to hide his figure in the mist.

  However, it was still a step too late. He only felt a sharp pain in his left thigh and had already been pierced by a sharp object.

  "Bang~~~" With a loud noise, he heavily smashed onto the stone wall in front of him. At the same time, he turned his head around and saw the true face of that person, and also heard a faint "hmm~~~" sound from his mouth.

  That person was also in a state of astonishment, apparently not expecting Zhang Chong to dodge his fatal blow. At this moment, Zhang Chong also recognized him. He was a divine power-level inner disciple and one of the ten guards led by Tu Ba this time.

  "Why does this guard want to kill him?" Zhang Chong thought in his heart, thinking about this inexplicable question.

  But the man's attack was unsuccessful, and a fierce expression flashed across his face. He pulled out an object from his pocket and put it in his mouth. In less than half a moment, his eyes turned bright red, and he looked like he had lost his mind. Standing there, he let out low growls, his eyes fixed on Zhang Chong, as he charged forward again with the black long spear.

  At this time, Zhang Zhong couldn't care less about the blood flowing from his thigh and was desperately trying to use his movement technique to escape.

  However, on the left hand of that person, a black mist slowly condensed in his hand and then surged towards Zhang Chong's body. As soon as the black mist touched Zhang Chong, it immediately made his whole body stiffen, unable to move again.

  He raised the black long spear in his right hand high, transformed into a giant black snake, spitting scarlet letters, rushing towards Zhang Chong's chest.

  "It's all over, everything has come to an end." Zhang Chong's body was fixed in place, no matter how hard he struggled, he couldn't move even half an inch. Unable to avoid it, he stared blankly at the massive black snake, its shadow growing larger and larger before his eyes.

  With a loud crash, the black long spear struck his chest. However, strangely, it did not penetrate through, but heavily hit the light green ring in Zhang Chong's palm, emitting a shocking sound that shook the sky.

  The stone wall behind Zhang Chong collapsed in an instant, causing him to fall to the ground, his whole body in severe pain. But at this time, his body could move again.

  At this moment, he didn't think twice and threw out the four 【Fireball Symbols】 on his body. Four fire-red balls, with a whistling sound, rushed towards the person holding the long spear.

  "Boom boom boom!" Under the fiery explosion, two fireballs were directly deflected by the man using his long spear. The other two fireballs, although they hit his body, only made him pause for a moment due to the intense explosive sound, and then he charged forward again as if he didn't feel any pain.

  In a moment of crisis, his right hand touched something cold on the ground. At this time, the black long spear was already in front of him, which made him stretch out his right hand and hold it horizontally in front of him.

  "A clang" - a crisp, dragon-like sound rang out between Zhang Chong and the other person. At the same time, Zhang Chong's arm was also shaken to the point of numbness.

  It was only then that he saw clearly what he had been holding in his hand all along - a rod of dark, icy metal.

  The man's long spear attack was blocked by this stick.

  "ROAR~~~" A loud roar sounded above Zhang Chong's head. Zhang Chong looked up and saw a giant beast standing in front of him, with the head of a lion, red eyes, and on top of its head, a sharp horn that was so red it seemed to be dripping blood.

  The beast's eyes stared at Zhang Chong, its bloody mouth wide open, and with a loud roar, it stretched out its head to bite him.

  At the moment when there was no room for hesitation, Zhang Chong was also extremely flexible. On his right hand, he relaxed with a gentle force. The man who charged at him with a spear, obviously already in a state of confusion, had eyes that were bloodshot red, and all he could see was Zhang Chong's appearance.

  Under Zhang Chong's loosened strength, he also involuntarily pressed heavily towards Zhang Chong's body, and this timing coincided perfectly with the coordination of the alien beast.

  All that could be heard was a faint "crack" sound, and the man's head directly entered the mouth of the strange beast, instantly being bitten off cleanly.

  The headless body was weak and powerless, and with a slight lift from Zhang Chong, it bounced back, while Zhang Chong also jumped up in sync, holding an iron rod and pointing it at the strange beast from afar.

  The monster was devouring the man's skull as if it were the most delicious delicacy, and the sound of its swallowing echoed through the silent blood cave, making it even more terrifying.

  Unconsciously, beads of sweat had already appeared on Zhang Chong's forehead.

  The seven-colored halo flashed before the strange beast, and Tu Bo's body flew out from the broken stone wall. His stunning blow directly forced back the strange beast, and then he carried Zhang Chong's body back to a safe area.

  "How did you run out of the designated range? Fortunately, that Akakiri just now hadn't attacked you before I arrived, otherwise your life would have been lost here."

  Although there is a tone of blame in Tuo Ba's words, the concern is even more evident. Obviously, he also understands the intention of Ting Feng Luo and knows that Zhang Chong is a talent to be cultivated.

  "I don't know either, it was that guard who suddenly attacked me and knocked me flying over there." Zhang said, staring at Tu Ba.
