Chapter 246: The Girl's Proposal

Continent!" "The legendary Crimson Abyss Continent, a holy land for cultivators!" Wen Ren Han Hai slapped the table. 。“It's not as good as you imagine, it's just that the spiritual energy is a bit m..."Don't just focus on running away, everyone! Let's work together, lend each other a hand. Otherwise, looking at the current situation, I'm afraid no one will be able to escape." The thin old man who pulled the bald strongman back shouted in a low voice as they ran.

"Under the current circumstances, what can be done It all boils down to who is faster." As soon as the elder finished speaking, a dismissive voice rose from the crowd.

Lu Xia Tian mingled in the crowd, silent as a ghost. His speed was only average, nothing special to set him apart. Yet, anxiety gnawed at his heart. The gaunt old man was right; if they continued like this, none of them would escape alive.

“I do know of a place we could possibly escape to, but with my current abilities, I probably wouldn’t get very far. If you’re willing to help me, I’d be happy to take you all with me. But if you don’t want to, then we’ll just have to die together.” A girl with average looks but a voluptuous figure was sweating profusely and spoke in a rapid voice.

"Nonsense, you're just a Qi Refining early stage cultivator, what can you possibly do" the young cultivator who had previously retorted to the gaunt elder scoffed.

“Shut up and listen to her.” Lu Xia Tian roared.

"Good boy, you're really arrogant. After this period of time passes, wait and see how I deal with you." The young cultivator still glared at Lu Xia Tian with a fierce expression.

Lu XiaTian narrowed his eyes, a flash of killing intent in them. He took a few steps forward and lunged at the young cultivator, reaching out to grab him.

"You're crazy!" The young cultivator was taken aback. Behind him were countless black armored beetles. Although Lu Xia Tian's aura wasn't strong, at this critical moment, everyone was struggling to escape. Even sworn enemies might not choose to attack now. Even if he could repel Lu Xia Tian, it would probably take some time.

"Talk too much!" Lu Xia Tian sneered. If it were usual, he wouldn't pay attention to such noisy people. But at this time of crisis, he was helpless and dared to stop others from surviving. Coupled with the fact that Lu Xia Tian was in a bad mood, this guy's words were threatening, so he could only blame him for courting death. The other party's angry eyes looked ridiculous.

"You're asking for death!" The young cultivator had just raised his weapon when suddenly, the world blurred. A fist, crackling with wind energy, appeared before him. Before he could react, the young cultivator drew a shield and held it up in front of his chest at lightning speed.

With a thunderous boom, Lu Xiaoteng's fist landed squarely on the shield. The young cultivator cried out in pain, his hand going numb from the impact. He had no time to react; the sheer force of the blow sent him sliding backward involuntarily, or he would have been crushed. But behind him were countless black armored insects. Hearing the rustling sound beside his ear, the young cultivator screamed in terror, but the black armored insects were already crawling up his trousers. In a panic, the young cultivator had no time to seek revenge from Lu Xiaoteng. His legs trembled, and a wave of frigid air erupted from his lower body, freezing the insects that had climbed onto him, sending them plummeting to the ground. The young cultivator's heart pounded with fear as he narrowly escaped the black armored insects’ attack.

Seeing Lu Xiaitian’s gaze sweep over him, the young cultivator's eyebrows twitched. Though it was just a simple strike, he had already realized that he was no match for his opponent. Regret filled his heart; he wished he hadn't spoken out of turn earlier. Now he had unwittingly provoked such a formidable enemy. Fearing Lu Xiaitian would strike again, the young cultivator gritted his teeth and fled alone in another direction.

“Still, this fellow is refreshing. He directly smashed the fly in front of him with one punch. However, this fly is not simple. It’s a direct disciple of Hanxia Patriarch. If this person escapes, friend, you should be careful.” The thin old man reminded.

To be called "Ancestor" by Foundation Establishment cultivators, one would have to be at least a Golden Core cultivator. Lu Xiaoteng's face turned ugly for a moment. It truly was a case of misfortunes never coming singly. However, Lu Xiaoteng's expression soon returned to normal. There was no point dwelling on what couldn't be changed. Besides, the other party didn't know his details. Once he had finished condensing the Golden Core Fruit, he would return to Yuewang City or Lingxiao Palace. What could the other party do if he had a Golden Core master

“Thank you for the reminder. You just mentioned there was a way out. I wonder what method it is” Lu Xia Tian calmed his mind slightly and looked at the girl who had spoken earlier.

“I remember there’s a lake, not too far from here. If we can get to the lake and dive in, even though those Black Beetles are powerful, they can't enter the water. That way, everyone will be safe.” The girl’s voice was hurried, clearly her magic waning.

"Entering the lake This place is so strange, there might be some powerful monsters in it." Someone immediately questioned.

“The only option now is to take a gamble. Entering the lake might give us a sliver of hope. Even if we encounter powerful monsters within, it's better than dying at the hands of these black beetles.”

Soon, everyone came to a decision.

"Blackwater Lake" As soon as the girl spoke, two twin cultivators in their thirties from within the crowd reacted instantly. After a slight startle, they exchanged glances and swiftly detached themselves from the group, rushing away towards the distance.

“You!” The girl was instantly furious. She hadn’t expected anyone to break their promise and leave first. The twin brothers who had left earlier clearly thought the girl's cultivation was too weak, fearing they would be held back, so they directly left. A few others witnessed the change before them, hesitated for a moment, then ran in the direction of the twin brothers. Apparently, these people agreed with the girl’s idea, but it was just an idea. Since someone already knew where the lake was, why bother staying to adventure with the girl

This is a test.

"These bastards, they're really scum." The bald strongman cursed angrily, but there was nothing he could do about the current situation.

The young girl's face was pale, and in the blink of an eye, most people had already left. Only the thin old man, the bald strongman, and Lu Xia Tian were left. His cultivation was too low, if they all joined hands to help her, perhaps there would still be a chance to escape. The thin old man had consumed a lot of mana with the bald strongman, and he was no longer able to aid her. As for Lu Xia Tian alone, I'm afraid he could only do so much, and besides, who knew what he was really thinking

Just as despair began to creep into the girl's heart, a powerful hand suddenly grabbed her shoulder. The girl felt light all over, and her speed, which had already slowed down, increased again. When she came to her senses, she saw that it was Lu Xiaottian, with an expressionless face, who had saved her.

"Thanks, you bunch of idiots. Think Blackwater Lake is so easy to go into Every time the black beetles appear, hordes of monsters are forced to flee and jump into the lake to survive. Countless numbers of them have chosen that fate. The monsters in Blackwater Lake have also developed a habit: whenever there's a surge of black beetles, powerful monsters inside will choose to come out and hunt. Those guys going down there are just snacks for the monsters." Thinking about those who had just left, the girl was furious.
