High Martial Arts: Logging 10,000 Years Into The Future
Chapter 400

Chapter 400

Lu Sheng’s words fell like nails. He turned, and with a slight force.

Boom!

A visible white shockwave exploded, creating a shallow pit on the ground. Lu Sheng’s figure shot up like a cannonball, flying towards the rift. As he reached the rift, he plunged into the rolling black mist and beast tide, disappearing.

“Wow!” This scene elicited gasps from the battlefield, with everyone displaying disbelief.

“Who is he? Is he mad?!”

“A Class SS Catacomb with a Level 10 breakout, and he goes in? Is he courting death?!”

“Madman!”

Witnessing Lu Sheng’s voluntary dive into the Catacomb, everyone was shocked and stunned, including Dong Shengyi, who stood up and stared in disbelief. Lin Wanwan covered her mouth, wide-eyed, even forgetting to cry. Yu Xinghai also stepped forward, seemingly unable to believe his eyes. He had seen many go to their deaths bravely, but never someone as decisive and fearless as Lu Sheng.

“Check the information of this Star General. Is he from our Eastern Division?”

…

The wind howled past Lu Sheng’s ears, blowing his hair back. The catacomb seemed like a gaping maw, spewing foul black water, waiting to devour him. Lu Sheng’s dive attracted the attention of many beasts, their monstrous eyes glaring at him, their roars echoing. Yet, Lu Sheng’s face remained calm. He closed his eyes, his figure falling like a meteor into the abyss, disappearing.

A figure continued to fall in the dark cavern, attracting the attention of the frenzied beasts. Many stretched their claws and tentacles, trying to catch the falling figure, but it was too fast, quickly plunging deeper. After an unknown number of layers, the figure finally hit the ground with a heavy thud, causing a wave of dirt and debris. Many beasts were thrown away, but more surged forward, quickly flooding the area.

Moments later, a surge of golden light burst forth.

Boom!

A powerful shockwave spread, tearing countless beasts apart, their remains flying. The beast horde was momentarily cleared. A tall, imposing figure strode out of the pit. Lu Sheng, holding the Red Crystal Dragon Spear, was enveloped in a golden holy light, like a blazing torch in the dark.

“I’m coming, Dong Qingxue.” Lu Sheng softly said to the surrounding beast eyes. “Wait for me.”

Earlier, Lu Sheng had quickly checked Dong Qingxue’s profile in the dream world. Everything was normal, proving Dong Qingxue was still alive!

***

Lu Sheng had a significant advantage: he could use the data from the Dream world to assess a person’s state.

The personal information of Dong Qingxue in the Dream world indicated that her life wasn’t fixed at twenty-eight.

This proved …

“She’s just trapped underground, not dead! But if this drags on, who knows what might happen.” Lu Sheng now feared that if he entered the Dream world again, he would witness a completely altered fate for Dong Qingxue.

“So … I need to hurry!”

Roar!

Squeak—

Hiss—

The area Lu Sheng had just cleared was rapidly filling up again; the underground cavern was in turmoil, with too many exotic beasts below.

Lu Sheng’s spiritual power spread out, allowing him to clearly observe the scene.

At this moment, almost every crevice in the underground cavern was crazily spewing out exotic beasts and black mist.

More came from the depths of the cavern.

“There might be a super-large crevice there, the prototype of the future second battlefield …” Lu Sheng speculated.

He even captured a strange wave of consciousness.

It was similar to the one he had encountered before, which had bewitched him and created a group of evil Masters, but not the same. This wave of consciousness was now consciously trying to make contact with him.

“I could play with you if I had time, but now … forget it.”

Lu Sheng ignored the wave of consciousness and continued to spread his spiritual power, searching for Dong Qingxue’s whereabouts.

Lu Sheng’s confidence in searching for Dong Qingxue in the underground cavern stemmed from one major reason. It was the mithril pendant he had given Dong Qingxue, which contained a part of his martial will.

The pendant harbored his spiritual power seed, serving as a coordinate. Within a certain range, it could help Lu Sheng pinpoint Dong Qingxue’s exact location.

Roar!

Countless exotic beasts swarmed towards him, their hot breath and foul saliva almost dripping onto Lu Sheng’s face.

“I need to do a dual task: find Dong Qingxue and let her see me as soon as possible …”Lu Sheng thought, “In that case, this move is the most suitable.”

In the next breath … Lu Sheng’s calm voice gently echoed.

“Unmatched*.”

[*a state previously explained as a form similar to the Martial God State.]

Boom!

Four-colored energy blossomed in the dark and deep cavern, tearing, freezing, melting, or blasting away all exotic beasts covered by the light.

Rumble—

The steep and jagged stone walls around him collapsed and caved in.

Lu Sheng took a step forward, sweeping his long spear, as if tearing down the old nest deep in the cavern. Lu Sheng’s thoughts were pure.

The more exotic beasts’ hatred I attract here, the less pressure Dong Qingxue might face somewhere in this cavern …

So, he aimed to make as much noise as possible.

If he could, Lu Sheng even wanted to pierce through the entire cavern.

Roar!

A massive exotic beast, nearly twenty meters long with a shark-like head and six thick, furry limbs, rushed towards Lu Sheng.

Opening its bloodthirsty mouth, it revealed black, serrated teeth. Its foul breath, like a violent wind, could almost knock a person unconscious.

Lu Sheng, expressionless, flicked his wrist, gripping the scarlet crystal dragon-patterned spear with both hands.

Using the spear as a blade, he slashed diagonally. The red flames illuminated the cavern for a moment.

Swish—

The enormous six-armed shark exotic beast opened its mouth wide, and three or four meters before reaching Lu Sheng, it was neatly split in half.

The momentum did not diminish, continuing to rush backward until it crashed into an unknown rock wall, finally stopping with a rumble.

It was as if a massive locomotive had suddenly split and derailed before Lu Sheng, resulting in a catastrophic wreck.

“Dao of Slaughter!”

Lu Sheng lifted his spear, sweeping out flames, frost, or huge cyan wind blades, or layers of soil and rock.

Regardless of the power, it brought forth a bloody aura.

The “Unmatched” state was most suitable for fighting small monsters, and combined with the Dao of Slaughter, it was truly like mowing down monsters.

Wherever Lu Sheng’s spear swept, it was a scene of chaos and corpses!

Boom!

Lu Sheng stomped his foot, collapsing an underground passage, leaping like a cannonball, and thrusting his spear forward with a light shake.

Hundreds of exotic beasts were torn apart and flung away. Every move and every style of his was explosively powerful. Every ordinary attack carried terrifying special effects. Flames, frost, and hurricanes layered on the surface of the scarlet crystal dragon-patterned spear, making it dazzlingly beautiful.

Lu Sheng’s spear seemed like a divine weapon several meters thick and tens of meters long, with the overlapping shadows of master wills behind him, making the battle scene extraordinarily magnificent. His martial arts advantage was fully displayed at this moment.

“Even those with strength close to mine can’t achieve such effects …”

In the “Unmatched” state, the simultaneous eruption of various elemental energies was terribly lethal.

Ordinary martial artists, even top-notch masters with combat power in the tens of stars, could at most kill a few, or a dozen, or at best, dozens of exotic beasts.

It’s not that they weren’t strong, but their attack range was limited.

Lu Sheng was different; elemental energy extended like his arms, and he also had spiritual power … The combined attack effects were a disaster for low-level exotic beasts, covering a vast area.

Roar—

Lu Sheng’s body slightly trembled, and a long, whale-like cry erupted from within him.

Splash—

The sound of waves crashing against rocks resounded.
