Chapter 708: Chapter 708: The Mine Trembles, the Core Formation Cultivators Return!
Chu Zhongtian had not expected that just as he prepared to make his move, Pan Yunsheng and the others were actually planning to leave.
"Should I act or not?"
Chu Zhongtian was conflicted in his heart. He did not know Pan Yunsheng very well because he himself had previously been at the Foundation Establishment Stage.
And Pan Yunsheng had been assigned to guard the Spirit Vein for quite some time.
This person was deep in scheming, and because the Xuanyun Sect hadn’t expelled him despite reaching the limits of his cultivation, he was extremely loyal to the Sect.
Such a person was difficult to deal with.
Perhaps...
If he missed this opportunity, he might never have another chance to kill him!
But the moment he acted, it was certain that all the Core Formation Stage cultivators would swarm him!
It wasn’t that Chu Zhongtian feared death.
It was just that revealing his position would be disadvantageous to Lu Chen!
"I’ll let you live a little longer..."
At that moment, Chu Zhongtian still put aside his personal vendetta, prioritizing Lu Chen above all else.
Moments later, as the sound of footsteps faded away and feeling assured they had truly left, Chu Zhongtian retreated back into the mine and saw the Xuanming Ice Snake with its head pressed against the stone wall.
"Little White, come down, they’re gone."
Chu Zhongtian said expressionlessly.
"Hiss?"
The Xuanming Ice Snake flicked its tongue, somewhat puzzled by Chu Zhongtian’s sudden change of plans.
"We are trying to buy time. Since they are willing to leave and wait outside the mine for us, that’s even better."
Chu Zhongtian sat down next to the stone wall, gently touching the Shadowless Sword in his hand.
After breaking through to the Core Formation Stage, he understood the Xuanyun Sword Art even more deeply.
The Shadowless Sword was just one of the techniques within it.
He hadn’t learned just this one.
At this moment, the Shadowless Sword in his hand became as ordinary as any other flying sword.
"Hiss..."
The Xuanming Ice Snake understood Chu Zhongtian’s meaning and coiled up beside him, tucking in its body.
"However, staying here, there’s no guarantee we won’t be discovered. It might be better to go inside and hide as deeply as possible."
Chu Zhongtian’s mind was clear as a mirror.
As long as they were not discovered, the Core Formation enforcers would always have lingering concerns.
But as they delved deeper into the cave, the ground suddenly shook. Chu Zhongtian, caught off guard, was thrown forward and tumbled to the ground.
"What’s going on?"
Chu Zhongtian quickly scrambled to his feet, his mind also sensing trouble, fearing this sudden turn of events would lead those Core Formation enforcers to return!
They were unaware of Lu Chen’s presence and would only think that this disturbance was his doing!
"Little White, let’s run!"
Chu Zhongtian made a snap decision, floating just above the ground, he urged the Xuanming Ice Snake to move first.
"Hiss!"
But the Xuanming Ice Snake, just like before, pressed against the walls of the cave, raising its head and flicking its tongue at Chu Zhongtian, signaling for him to go!
"I can’t leave. If I go, you’ll surely die!"
Chu Zhongtian resolutely shook his head, saying, "After all, I’m familiar with their swordsmanship and can hold out for a bit longer!"
"Hiss!"
The Xuanming Ice Snake flicked its tongue out again.
And this time, on the tip of its tongue was the Ice Spirit Pearl!
In the cave, the temperature also plummeted suddenly!
Chu Zhongtian understood its intention; with the Ice Spirit Pearl and in such a narrow space, it could hold them off for an even longer time!
"Little White," Chu Zhongtian’s heart swelled with emotion as his expression became resolute, "if you won’t go, then I won’t leave either! It’s just as well—if we both die here, they still won’t know of Brother Lu Dao’s presence. On the contrary, it might even allow Brother Lu Dao to cultivate in peace!"
"Hiss!"
The Xuanming Ice Snake let out a joyful hissing noise, excited that Chu Zhongtian had understood its intention.
But at that moment.
A swooshing sound approached!
Pan Yunsheng and the others had returned. Before they arrived, the Shadowless Sword was already flying through the darkness towards Chu Zhongtian and the Xuanming Ice Snake!
"Hiss—"
The Xuanming Ice Snake violently swung its tail, sweeping Chu Zhongtian behind it, while it placed the Ice Spirit Pearl in front of itself, unleashing its demonic power through the pearl!
A thousand ice blades!
Crack!
Crack!
Crack!
The sound of the ice blades colliding with the Shadowless Sword echoed through the cave!
"Hiss—"
The Xuanming Ice Snake hissed again, signaling for Chu Zhongtian to make his move!
