In other words, if Li Chonglou had known about this matter, he would definitely have understood that the person who said this was at least at the eighth level of strength!
What was the concept of the eighth level?
With his current peak strength only at the sixth level, even someone at the seventh level could give him some trouble. As for the eighth level, once a fight started, there was only escape or death!
However, Li Chonglou didn't realize the seriousness of the problem. Seeing that the two had finally found an underground passage and jumped in, he also stealthily followed.
"I hope for more equipment-type treasures. I seem to have too many people."
Li Chonglou was still thinking about treasures. The four-piece set he got from Wei En was just enough for Chen Pao's four-person team, but he also had Yue Hai Xiao Yue and the others.
Although the Sen Wolf brothers were older, with the help of weapons, their strength should also be on par. Besides that, it would be even better if the newly joined recruits could have matching gear.
Li Chonglou even imagined that if everyone had a piece, his team's strength would more than double!
Perhaps they could even take down Du Tian and the others with this!
After entering his own company, they wanted to leave. This time, no matter who it was, they would definitely not be willing.
Li Chonglou wouldn't resort to force, but he would definitely find a way to keep him. After all, Du Tian was not only strong himself, but he also had a group of loyal subordinates.
It was no exaggeration to say that if Du Tian could be taken down, the benefits would even exceed the sum of the treasures he obtained today!
Of course, excluding the green bottle.
While contemplating his bright future, Li Chonglou also jumped down.
Perhaps because everything had gone too smoothly, and almost all the problems encountered were perfectly resolved shortly after, he relaxed his vigilance a little.
Before jumping down, he hadn't observed the situation inside, thinking it would be the same as before, as long as he quietly followed for a while longer, he could be the螳螂捕蝉.
This time, luck was clearly not on his side.
Li Chonglou, who considered his breath-concealing technique to be almost perfect, heard a cold voice as soon as he landed.
"You brat, you're quite bold, following us all the way and then daring to come in?"
Li Chonglou's scalp tingled instantly, because he couldn't see the other party's figure!
A master!
An absolutely invincible master!
His reaction was quite fast. Almost the second the voice sounded, he had already used all his strength to surge upwards.
If his Shadow Step could be used upwards, he would have instinctively used his fastest Shadow Step!
But even so, while still in mid-air, Li Chonglou felt an unprecedented sense of crisis attacking his back.
He had last felt this sensation in the lost land. The aura emitted by that never-before-seen demonic creature seemed to be less intense than this!
"I'll risk it!"
Li Chonglou's mind raced. At this moment, he had two choices: one was to give up surging upwards and temporarily push off the wall to dodge the attack.
But doing so would mean losing the opportunity to surge upwards. In this narrow space, he would either face the opponent's relentless offensive or escape into the depths at the fastest speed!
There was another option.
That was to take the blow head-on and then take the opportunity to escape the cave. Although he might still be injured and entangled by the opponent, the chances of survival on the ground were definitely higher than in the cave!
Li Chonglou hesitated for less than a tenth of a second. He made his choice almost as soon as the idea arose, which was to take the blow head-on!
Although it seemed simple, the prerequisite for making the second choice was to ensure that his ability to move would not be significantly affected after taking this blow.
Otherwise, after taking a move, even if he escaped to the surface, he would be half-crippled. It would be better to fight it out underground, perhaps there would still be a glimmer of hope.
It sounded long, but the entire process happened in a flash. From the sound to Li Chonglou's upward surge, and then to the appearance of a large palm.
The series of actions all happened within a second!
As the palm was about to arrive, Li Chonglou's body suddenly turned, and he adopted a strange posture.
"En?"
The owner of the voice seemed a bit confused, but the palm still pressed down without mercy.
Boom!
Although it was just a normal pressing collision, the next second it erupted with a shockwave more violent than a missile explosion!
The hard ground, which was difficult for humans to dig, shattered like scum at this moment!
The cave entrance nearby was directly vaporized, and a three-meter-deep pit was instantly formed, and Li Chonglou's figure had long since disappeared.
"He's not dead yet? Interesting. A Long, wait for me."
The voice continued to sound, and then another cold voice followed.
"Don't delay too long, this place is related to our next plan."
"Just a little brat at the sixth level, give me thirty seconds."
In a dense patch of grass, a strong gust of wind suddenly blew, pressing the dense leaves down.
But after the strong wind, visible bloodstains were left on them, as if silently explaining that this was not a normal wind.
Li Chonglou ignored the small wounds caused by the leaves, clutching his chest, and almost without stopping, he used Shadow Step.
"Faster! Faster!"
His speed, which he had been proud of before, now felt like a turtle's pace!
Because Li Chonglou felt the aura behind him chasing him at a thousand times his speed!
If it continued like this, let alone thirty seconds, he would be caught in less than five seconds!
The power of that palm also made him realize the approximate strength of the opponent.
The seventh level, no, at least the eighth level master!
Even a peak seventh level cultivator couldn't unleash such power!
At this moment, Li Chonglou no longer cared about regret or fear, his mind was filled with only one thought.
That was to escape!
To escape at an even faster speed!
At this moment, not only were all the acupoints in his body circulating frantically as if injected with chicken blood, but even his internal energy was being consumed desperately, all for the sake of squeezing out more speed.
At this moment, his speed had reached an unprecedented peak, even twice as fast as the normal Shadow Step!
The frantic exertion also put all his internal organs in a critical state, and the blood he coughed up was precisely because of this.
But even so, the speed was still far from enough!
One second, two seconds. As he had predicted, in less than five seconds, the voice that made his scalp tingle sounded again.
"You brat, you seem to be a genius as well. In that case, you can't be spared."
