Chapter 134: Earth Trembles

s spiritual awareness had reached a new level, quite remarkable considering it had been greatly depleted. The fact that his spiritual awareness recovered so well after such heavy consumption was indee..."No need." Besides that old man who practiced a special divine consciousness technique in the Si Xiang Jian formation he encountered, he had never seen any cultivator of Qi Refining whose divine consciousness could simultaneously wield three weapons. Meng Yu had just released the brown bear and already revealed a sliver of an opening, although it was extremely short, it was enough for him. Lu Xiaoteng remained expressionless, reaching out to throw over ten iron thorn vine seeds, while three shadow needles also shot out.

The bear demon's skin was rough and thick, always known for its formidable defense and immense strength. Even with nearly ten iron thorny vines binding it, it still roared and struggled fiercely. Compared to Yin Yi Mu who had been tightly bound by a few thorny vines before, struggling and screaming incessantly, this was several times stronger.

But just as Leng QiaoYu rushed forward, the brown bear strained and broke free of one or two iron thorny vines, several hair-thin shadow needles had already shot into the brown bear's two eyes and wide open mouth. The nearly ten-foot-tall brown bear's movements stopped abruptly and it collapsed with a deafening crash.

Cold Qiao Yu stared at Lu Xia Tian in astonishment. She had originally prepared to fight with all her might, but she didn't expect such a powerful third-order brown bear to be solved by Lu Xia Tian between his fingers. Thinking of her mockery of Lu Xia Tian before, Cold Qiao Yu was simply ashamed and embarrassed.

"Damn it!" Meng Yu was furious. He had painstakingly raised a third-tier brown bear, intending to use it as a trump card at a critical moment. However, before he could even deploy it, Lu Xiaotian had slaughtered it. It was truly unexpected. If he had known Lu Xiaotian was so formidable, he should have teamed up with Yin Yimu from the start to eliminate him. But opportunities once missed were gone forever. He had calculated everything, including Luo Qian, Su Qing, and Wu Yan, three elite disciples who were dead. Yet, he hadn't expected Lu Xiaotian to be the most troublesome of them all.

Regarding Meng Yu's insults, Lu Xia Tian pretended not to hear them. Meanwhile, other cultivators from Lingxiao Palace, led by Zhu Ling and his group, killed several disciples of the Xuanbing Sect in succession, tilting the situation in their favor.

The entire grotto was filled with blades and sword energy, crisscrossing everywhere. There were traces of chaotic magical energy all around. The rocks on the cave walls trembled under the influence of magic, constantly falling off in large chunks. No one noticed that at the moment when the rock chunks fell, a circular yellow button appeared. As if by coincidence, a ray of sword energy struck the yellow button precisely. In an instant, the earth shook and mountains trembled. The grotto began to collapse on a large scale.

Everyone's face turned pale with horror. Under these circumstances, even using earth escape wouldn't allow them to escape at all.

Large boulders began to fall from the ceiling, cracks appeared throughout the cavern, and the fissures on the ground were widening.

“Not good!” Meng Yu cried out in alarm. Taking advantage of Lu Xia Tian’s preoccupation, he slashed at the large rock hurtling towards his head with an ice spike while trying desperately to flee towards the side of the cold pool. Only by escaping the cave could he possibly avoid being buried alive; otherwise, everyone would perish within.

Lu Xia Tian was even more enraged in his heart. He had finally managed to kill Yin Yi Mu with the tactic of appearing weak and feigning ignorance, and Meng Yu wouldn't have been able to do anything to him. Never did he expect that there would be such a mechanism hidden inside this cave. If he had known beforehand, he would have directly used his two magic artifacts to kill Meng Yu and leave the cave early to collect Zi Luo參. He wouldn't have fallen into such a dangerous situation. It was truly unlucky, he cursed under his breath, remembering that there was still Zi Luo參 at the end of the cave leading to Han Tan. And at this time, turning back would probably take longer than running to Han Tan. Now he had no other choice.

In a few strides, he quickly dashed to Wu Yan and Su Qing's side. The two looked terrified, pleadingly looking at Lu Xia Tian. However, Lu Xia Tian was already in a precarious situation himself at this time, where could he possibly care about their safety

"It's only now you want to leave You're dreaming!" Meng Yu was already extremely annoyed with Lu Xia Tian. He aimed a pink pill at him and shot it out. The pill exploded in mid-air, scattering a cloud of pink smoke.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Lu Xia Tian was greatly startled and hurriedly retreated several steps, fearing that he would be covered by the pink mist. Before this, Su Qing and Wu Yan had suffered the same fate, their potential rendered useless. If he were to be hit, he would lose his magical powers. In this collapsing cave, he would be no different from an ordinary person, with virtually no chance of survival.

With a deafening boom, while they were delayed, large rocks had fallen ahead, blocking their path. Lu Xiaoteng chuckled wryly. After so long on the journey of cultivating immortality, besides facing off against the old man in black's soul, this was the second time he found himself helpless, waiting for his fate.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

A muffled groan came from Lu Xiaoteng. He looked down, and several boulders had hit Su Qing and Wu Yan respectively. Blood trickled from the corners of their mouths, and it seemed they were about to die. Lu Xiaoteng sighed, "Well, this is a rare sight – having these two with me even as I die."Lu Xiaoteng gave a wry smile. Things had developed far beyond his imagination and control. The situation was no longer within his power to influence. He expanded the protective barrier slightly, shielding Su Qing and Wu Yan who had already fainted beneath it. More and more rocks fell from above, weakening the spiritual shield. Lu Xiaoteng didn't know how long he had lasted, but he felt the falling rocks becoming increasingly dense, his magic power dwindling. His vision blurred, and he lost consciousness.

Originally, death felt like this. As Lu Xia Tian fainted, that was the thought that flashed through his mind.

Though Lu Xia Tian was unconscious, the earth-shattering tremors persisted. Around the grotto, dozens of places within the bloody forbidden zone presented the same scene. Numerous groups of cultivators also encountered the same perilous situation.

In the dark, narrow crypt stretching for what seemed like miles, a small stream flowed through clumps of luminous herbs. In a cavernous space where countless passages converged, lay a crumbling stone statue, revealing beneath its layers a skeleton clad in green armor and a matching green battle skirt.

The green-plated skeleton shook its neck, and two purple flames appeared in its empty eye sockets, bringing a touch of life to the entire skeletal frame.

"Finally, there's a new human entering this damned place. It seems hope is not lost after all." The green-armored skeleton let out a horrifying cackle.

"Come out, my little darling! Bloodshadow Demon Lizard!"

A green-armored skeleton emerged wielding a white bone spear. The green skull gestured with both hands, its voice booming with sinister pronouncements. A wave of eerie mist passed by, and from the nearby grass, a creature about five feet tall burst forth. Its body was covered in dark blue scales, supported by two powerful legs, while its forelegs appeared slender, tipped with sharp claws. The bloodshadow lizard spat crimson forked tongues like a serpent.

Following closely behind the leading demon lizard, dozens of demon lizards of varying sizes appeared.
