Chapter 278: Chapter 278: Earth Element Missing, Sand Pit Monster!

The demon tree is dead!

But Lu Chen simply couldn’t bring himself to feel happy!

Because the Pure Jade Vase was nowhere to be found!

This was one of the treasures left to him by his mother, Li Qingyao!

The bead of the Hateful Heaven Pupil Technique had already entered his eye socket, completely fusing with him.

It could be said that the Pure Jade Vase was his only concern now!

"Master, how are you?"

At this moment, the voice of his weapon spirit echoed in Lu Chen’s mind.

"I’m fine, how about you?"

Lu Chen came back to his senses, only to realize that he was gripping the long spear tightly in his hand.

"I’m fine too, we seem to have entered the Earth Element Deficiency Array now! As long as we break through this array, we can leave the Five Elements Deficiency Array!"

The weapon spirit sensed that Lu Chen was not very happy, so it thought to motivate him with the prospect of leaving.

"Then after destroying the other arrays, do they disappear, or..."

Lu Chen couldn’t help but ask.

"Master, I don’t know about that," the weapon spirit replied, "but they should still exist, right? It’s just the Land of Nothingness, after all!"

Lu Chen got up and began to observe his surroundings while asking, "Then, can we still make it to the Wood Element Deficiency Array?"

Wood conquers Earth, so these two deficiency arrays should be connected.

"Theoretically, it is possible," the weapon spirit affirmed, "You see, after we came out from the Metal Element Deficiency Array, we entered the Wood Element Deficiency Array!"

Lu Chen was immediately delighted, and he said, "Then let’s search for the Wood Element Deficiency Array, I still need to find the Pure Jade Vase!"

Upon mentioning the Pure Jade Vase, Lu Chen immediately thought of the black Jiao snake in his sleeve. He carefully searched, only to find that Xiao Hei was still there, but still unconscious and not yet awakened.

"But Master, I don’t know which direction the Wood Element Deficiency Array is in."

Knowing what Lu Chen sought, the weapon spirit felt somewhat helpless. In the Metal Element Deficiency Array it could be of help, but in this Earth Element Deficiency Array, it had never been here before and was not familiar with it.

"Then we can only start searching," Lu Chen scratched his head and then said, "You should be able to find the array’s core here, right? If there’s any response, we need to make a mark first."

"Of course," the weapon spirit perked up and said, "However, Master, it seems that many cultivators entered here earlier, we need to be cautious."

Lu Chen confidently smiled and said, "As long as we don’t come across anyone in the Core Formation Stage, there won’t be any cultivators here who can be my match!"

However, the weapon spirit advised, "Master, do not be careless. You see in the Wood Element Deficiency Array, the demon tree spawned from the core treasure could even fight against those in the Core Formation Stage!"

Hearing this reminder, Lu Chen was instantly alerted, cursing inwardly that he had been arrogant!

"Understood!"

He shook off the distractions and responded energetically, then used the Hateful Heaven Pupil Technique to look in one direction.

They were in the middle of a wasteland at the time, with yellow sand filling the sky and dust flying everywhere.

Every so often, a tornado would whip up in the distance, creating sandstorms of various sizes.

But Lu Chen’s use of the Hateful Heaven Pupil Technique wasn’t to observe the Earth Element Deficiency Array.

What he was looking for was the location of the Wood Element Deficiency Array!

Yet no matter where he looked, there was no trace to follow; outside of the Earth Element Deficiency Array, the surroundings seemed like a void in space, making it impossible to discern any direction.

However, during this process, he discovered quite a few cultivators.

These were encounters he hadn’t had in the other deficiency arrays.

"Perhaps this place is relatively less dangerous!"

Lu Chen retracted his gaze, murmuring to himself. For now, aside from the spiritual power swirling in the sandstorms, it seemed like there were no other dangers.

Maybe that’s why these cultivators and some mundane martial artists had managed to survive!

Aside from that, Lu Chen also spotted some beasts lurking beneath the sands.

"Master, watch your step!"

At that moment, the voice of the weapon spirit rang out again in Lu Chen’s mind.

Lu Chen was puzzled, knowing there were beasts beneath his feet; it wasn’t unusual for the weapon spirit to warn him.

But before he could respond, the ground under his feet suddenly gave way, becoming loose!

Lu Chen was startled and quickly prepared to leap away, but unexpectedly, the sand pit collapsed, drawing him in further and exerting a suction force like a vortex in water!

And the source of the suction was a huge mouth bristling with fierce teeth!

Each tooth resembled a sharp knife blade, and if they clamped shut, they would surely slice him in two!

Unable to break free, Lu Chen firmly gripped his spear and aimed it at the giant maw, unleashing the Heavenly Inquiry Spear Technique!

Spear Strikes Like a Dragon!
