The situation had changed so quickly that no one could believe it, not until Luo Cheng’s second sword attack, which left a startling wound in Su Yinan’s chest .
“How is it possible?!” Su Yinan screamed, reluctant to accept defeat . He fell . No one thought he would be able to survive .
At this moment, Lu Ping happened to arrive . It meant his crisis too had been completely resolved .
“This team is too dreadful . ”
“The most important thing is neither of them is famous . Who would know the master would be such a tough man?”
Gazing at the two men and the two women, the onlookers, who had witnessed everything, were in awe of them . They believed the young geniuses in the Realm of Heaven Martial Arts would hear about Lu Ping and Luo Cheng very soon .
“Master . ” Jiang Chen’s two practicing bodies started to act again . Lu Ping complimented Luo Cheng . Then he started to talk about the tree hole overhead . The three black-iron-level guardians had never moved . They had not shown any reaction to the fights that had just happened .
“Let me handle it . ” Lifting his head, Luo Cheng flew up .
The onlookers had not calmed down yet from the shock of Su Yinan’s tragic death . What they were seeing at the moment made them even more nervous .
“It should be fine . ” These people had confidence in Luo Cheng due to his previous performance . And the result proved they were right . Facing the Thunderbolt Martial Soul, the black-iron-level guardians were quite vulnerable . Luo Cheng got rid of them easily one after another .
“Congratulations, Master Luo Cheng . You are the first one to pass the black-iron-level tree hole . ” When the guardians had become a pile of scrap metal, the tree hole was open to Luo Cheng . The voice of the female Wizard named Hou Qin came from the magic tree, as if the Wizard Race had been watching everything that was happening in the magic tree .
“What happened? The master passed a black-iron-level tree hole?” Many people had not realized who Luo Cheng was . They were freaked out by the title Master .
Young strongmen had different titles, like the Genius Swordsman, the First Knife Practicer in 100 Years, but no one was called Master .
“Is he the master from that Sundry Goods Store?”
“He seems to have received the invitation . ”
“Does the master practice Martial Arts?”
People were surprised and shocked, eager to figure these things out . Some Junior Heavenly King geniuses felt quite pressured . They started to make an effort . Then, these geniuses were called by their names from time to time . And their results to pass the tree hole were also reported . The test of the magic tree was advancing faster and faster .
“Let’s go to find a new tree hole . ” Seeing Luo Cheng enter the tree hole, down below, Lu Ping and the others left this area .
“Apprentice Elder Brother Lu Ping, you killed that Ancient?” Shangguan Ru and Han Cong’er did not know Lu Ping before . They had never talked to each other before entering the magic tree . But since they had been a team for some time, they were getting acquainted .
“Yes,” Lu Ping admitted .
The two women gasped .
“I’m sure it’s not over yet . Be prepared . If you need anything, I’ll try my best to help you . ” Shangguan Ru said seriously .
Han Cong’er was uneasy hearing that . She said to Shangguan Ru through holy awareness, “What are you doing? If your family finds out about this, they will ask you to stay out of this for sure . ”
“That Ancient attacked me first,” Shangguan Ru replied .
Han Cong’er let out a sigh, considering what she should do .
However, whatever they would do, it did not seem to be a problem for Lu Ping . He was still looking for the next black-iron-level tree hole .
At the same time, somewhere in the magic tree, people found the temperature was much higher than in other places . It felt like there was a giant furnace nearby . Thinking something bad was happening, the passers-by hurried to leave . Some time later, the temperature got absurdly high . If it were not for the special magic tree, a big fire would have started . Before bigger disturbances occurred, the temperature started to drop to normal gradually .
A figure carrying two Doctrine Swords at his waist appeared in the dark . It was certainly Jiang Chen, who had mastered the Solar Golden Flame . He had also mastered the fourth chapter of the Fire God Scripture smoothly . He had absorbed the origin of the Purple Eerie Divine Flame . Not only had his lore of fire achieved completeness, but his divine body had improved a lot . It was growing from a curse-breaking divine body to a mature divine body .
Meanwhile, he could not keep holding back the force in his body anymore . The Ko clouds came, forcing him to break through to seven stars .
Outside the magic tree, the overcast Divine Prison Continent became even more depressing . Dark clouds tumbled through the sky . Thunder roared .
“This disturbance?”
Jiang Chen, very experienced in going through Kos, turned pale . The Ko clouds this time were more dreadful than the Five Thunders the practicing body of Luo Cheng had faced before .
“Crap . The heavens must know about your One Qi Transformed into Three Pure Ones . ” Azure Demon said anxiously, “Call your practicing bodies over . ” Jiang Chen would not be able to bear the intensity of this Ko of Thunder unless the true body and the practicing bodies merged . The true body itself was not strong enough to deal with it . Even though he wanted to take this challenge, he had to change his mind when feeling how powerful this Ko of Thunder was .
Because of this, Lu Ping left the two women without saying good-bye . He returned to Jiang Chen immediately .
Shangguan Ru did not know what was happening, but she also sensed the disturbance outside the magic tree . “Who is going through the Ko of Thunder here?”
“What a huge disturbance? Is someone going to be a saint?”
More and more people were disturbed by the powerful Ko of Thunder .
Thunderbolts were emotionless . They would usually hurt innocent people .
No one knew where the person who was going through the Ko of Thunder was . They did not want themselves to be hurt when the thunder fell .
“Stay away from the southeast . A human divine body is going through the Ko . ” Fortunately, they got the warnings from the Wizard Race . Instantly, people in the southeast of the magic tree all retreated quickly .
Lu Ping was the only one who went in the other direction .
However, the Ko of Thunder would not wait . The first thunder came .
“This is cheating!” Feeling the power of this first thunder, Jiang Chen could not help but swear .
“The treatment for a divine body is really special . I thought someone would become a saint . ” Someone gloated . No one knew how a Star Venerable would be able to resist such a powerful force .
Jiang Chen gritted his teeth . When he was just about to give up, something surprising happened . It was beyond the expectations of everyone . The magic tree extended a thin twig to Jiang Chen . The thickest part of the twig was only as thick as an arm . It looked as if it could be broken easily . However, at this moment, the magic tree showed its power . The thunder which had fallen was whipped back by the twig .
“How come?” Jiang Chen was pleasantly surprised . He had no idea why the magic tree was helping him .
The Ko of Thunder thought Jiang Chen was using external force to cheat . As a result, the power of the thunderbolts soared madly . Everyone in the magic tree felt extremely pressured . A Ko of Thunder of this level was not something a Star Venerable could bear .
“He is not that good . ” Lin Tianjian complained unhappily somewhere . He thought Jiang Chen’s fighting power did not deserve such a big disturbance . After all, he did not even have the nerve to fight .
Jiang Chen was very nervous . He knew the law of the Ko of Thunder . He was afraid the magic tree would induce something he did not want . Facing the angry Ko of Thunder, the magic tree fought back in an equally tough way . Countless branches extended to form a small world that sheltered him from the Ko of Thunder . Jiang Chen was very touched . He did not expect a tree to treat him so nicely .
However, he really did not understand why the magic tree was doing this .
“Is it because…”
All of a sudden, something he had forgotten for a long time occurred to him .
