An hour later, Lu Hao poked his head out from underground. The energy bursts could no longer be sensed from the outside.
Wu Chuan estimated that he had lured the enemy away, and as for whether the others survived, that would depend on their own abilities.
Lu Hao activated stealth and headed in the opposite direction from where the ninth-grade Earth-level martial artist had attacked.
He didn't fly in mid-air the whole way, since it would be too conspicuous.
He traveled on the ground using only his physical strength.
A short while later, Lu Hao saw the entrance to the passage through the woods. Previously, Lu Hao had been running in the direction from which the underground warriors had attacked.
Seeing the entrance to the passage means I haven't gone in the wrong direction. Just keep going in this direction and you'll definitely find the Ninth Rank Royal City.
Just as Lu Hao was about to step out of the woods, he felt a spiritual force probing him.
Lu Hao held his breath; such a wide-ranging mental probe was definitely of a high grade. However, he relaxed a moment later.
He possessed stealth abilities, and since he was currently in the forest, the ninth-rank opponent couldn't detect his spiritual power reaching Lu Hao's side; he simply passed right through, as if Lu Hao were invisible.
Soon, under Lu Hao's observation, his mental energy spread towards the passage ahead.
It seemed that a ninth-rank underground martial artist was heading towards the passage, releasing his spiritual power along the way to see if he could gain anything. After the ninth-rank spiritual power passed, Lu Hao immediately began to retreat. He wanted to take a big detour before heading to the royal city.
After all, while his spiritual power couldn't detect him when he went out, he could easily be seen by this ninth-rank cultivator. He didn't have any means to deal with a ninth-rank cultivator, so it was best for him to hide first when facing one.
However, judging from the situation, they failed to catch up with Wu Chuan, so they sent one person to guard the passage, while the other ninth-rank official was probably searching for Wu Chuan.
Fortunately, there were no ninth-rank officials guarding the royal city, so he and Fang Ping could go in and make a fortune. Fang Ping would go to rescue Li Changsheng, while he would go in to mine. Each of them had their own future!
On the other side, about 500 or 600 kilometers away from the passage.
Qin Fengqing and his two companions emerged from the cave of a sixth-grade demonic beast, casually popping a fruit into their mouths. "Old Wang (chewing), I knew this newly opened (chewing) cave had lots of good stuff."
Wang Jinyang glared at Qin Fengqing and said speechlessly, "Can't you finish what you're eating first?"
"It's not like I'm the only one eating here, Lao Wang. Listen to me, if we take over that small town, we'll definitely reap a lot of resources, and maybe we can even materialize our spiritual power directly."
Qin Fengqing swallowed what was in her mouth and then spoke.
Li Hansong, standing to the side, kept his head down and ate without saying a word. He was only a little short of reaching the fifth rank, and now he had quite a few energy fruits.
They might be able to reach the fifth rank directly. This trip down to the underground cave was really worth it. Although they were initially besieged by the cave warriors, they have now found quite a few good things under Qin Fengqing's leadership.
"A small town? That small town we just saw was so big, it must have had sixth-rank beings, maybe even peak sixth-rank beings with their essence and blood combined. We can't beat beings with their essence and blood combined. Also, we don't know what the situation is like with the other grandmasters?"
"Worrying is useless. We're so weak right now, even if something happens, we can't help. What's the point of thinking about this?"
It would be better to focus on improving oneself. If one could directly elevate oneself to the Grandmaster level, one could then act alongside Lu Hao.
That guy ditched us, he's definitely off to do something big. Knowing Lao Lu's personality, he might already be in the big city by now. I heard there's a huge mine beneath the big city, where energy stones are sold by the ton. What we need to do now is to plunder resources like crazy and improve quickly. If we can reach the Grandmaster level, we can help with the big battle in a day and a half.”
After saying that, Qin Fengqing ate the last energy fruit in his hand. "Stop talking nonsense, let's go back and do something big. We can make quite a stir and maybe attract one or two seventh-rank experts. Wait a minute, I feel like I can break through. Let's wait until I break through before we act. By then, my combat power will be even stronger."
Li Hansong interjected, saying that after eating a few bites of the energy fruit, he felt his whole body was filled with energy and he was about to break through.
"Alright, you break through first. Once you do, we'll deal with that small town. We're in the underground cave right now."
"You can try fusing the five bridges of heaven and earth to directly break through to the middle stage of the fifth rank," Wang Jinyang said.
Seeing that Wang Jinyang had agreed to the plan to take action against the small town, Qin Fengqing didn't say anything more.
The three of them dug a hole in the ground. After all, the fusion of the Three Jiao Bridge was quite a commotion, and it wouldn't be good if the underground warriors found out.
Soon, Li Hansong sat cross-legged inside and began his breakthrough, with Qin Fengqing and Wang Jinyang protecting him from the side.
"Old Wang, I'm really envious of this kid. Thinking back to when I was risking my life with you guys to break through to the fifth rank, I didn't even have such good conditions."
Qin Fengqing looked at the energy fruit in Li Hansong's hand and the small pieces of energy stone around it.
Given the underground environment, Li Hansong's fusion of the five bridges between heaven and earth was quite simple this time.
"You've already reached the sixth rank, what are you envious of? You have the same resources as him," Wang Jinyang said helplessly.
"You don't understand, this envy stems from my past lack of resources."
Wang Jinyang pursed his lips and didn't say anything more. This guy even brought up the past.
With Qin Fengqing and Wang Jinyang protecting him, Li Hansong's breakthrough was both safe and rapid. Thanks to the abundant energy, the speed at which Li Hansong merged with the Bridge of Heaven and Earth could be described as incredibly fast.
In just half an hour, Li Hansong completed the fusion of four Heaven and Earth Bridges and has begun to fuse the fifth Heaven and Earth Bridge.
However, along with the fifth Bridge of Heaven and Earth, a golden light also merged, and this golden light entered Li Hansong's brain directly after it appeared.
Li Hansong was naturally unaware, while Qin Fengqing and Wang Jinyang, who had been watching closely, exchanged glances.
Qin Fengqing transmitted her voice to Wang Jinyang, "Old Wang, did you see that just now? That golden light was indestructible matter, right?"
"Indeed, a trace of immortal substance entered his head," Wang Jinyang said in surprise via telepathy.
"Could he also be a resurrected martial artist?"
"Maybe. After all, he's had some unusual traits from the beginning. They say his skull was naturally formed, so maybe his situation is the same as mine."
"Are resurrected martial artists really that worthless? Old Lu said they were very rare, how come we've encountered one so quickly?"
"Resurrected martial artists each have their own unique characteristics and are all very strong, so we'll encounter them sooner or later. As long as we encounter more powerful individuals, we'll naturally encounter more resurrected martial artists." "Old Wang, do you think there's anything inside his Triple Energizer Gate? Could it also contain a divine artifact?"
"How would I know? You'll have to ask Lu Hao. That guy knows a lot, and he definitely knows about Li Hansong's situation too."
"You're all resurrected warriors, all cheaters. How can I, a mere ordinary player, possibly compete?"
