At the critical moment, Long Chen leaped into the air, grasping the Blackwind Sword. With a single slash, a powerful wave of Sword Qi instantly swept toward the Man-Eating Flowers.
SLASH!
With that one strike, the Man-Eating Flowers that were about to devour the Disciples of Martial Sect were all split in two and fell to the ground. However, there were far too many of them here. Long Chen’s single strike was not enough to resolve the crisis.
Several more gigantic Man-Eating Flowers lunged forward.
This time, Chu Lingjun took action. With a slight wave of her hand, a formidable power instantly shattered the attacking flowers! The resulting Qi Force swept out, knocking Li Tianhao and the others back.
"Ah? What happened?"
Sensing the massive commotion, Li Tianhao and the others jolted awake from their daze.
SWOOSH! SWOOSH! SWOOSH!
Countless vines from the Man-Eating Flowers shot into the air, attempting to entangle Long Chen and the others.
"Crap! What the hell are these things?"
"These flowers are that terrifying?"
Seeing this, the hearts of the Disciples of Martial Sect trembled violently. Long Chen struck again, severing all the entwining vines and sending them to the ground. Seeing this, Tang Le also hurried to join the fight.
Seeing Long Chen steal the show, Li Tianhao snorted coldly. "Just showing off."
With that, he immediately pulled a Sharp Sword from his waist. He unleashed several waves of Sword Qi in succession. His attacks were grand and powerful, striking with ferocity! Every wave of Sword Qi brought down another Man-Eating Flower. He truly had the air of a powerful expert!
"Long Chen, don’t think you’re so great for cutting down a few flowers. I can do it too, and even better than you."
After showing off, Li Tianhao wore a smug expression and deliberately glanced at Long Chen. However, Long Chen didn’t even look at him, acting as if he didn’t exist.
"young master, their attacks may be simple, but these Man-Eating Flowers are extremely difficult to deal with. There are too many of them here. We shouldn’t get bogged down in a fight. We need to clear a path and get through here quickly," Xia Duoduo said.
Hearing this, Long Chen nodded slightly. He immediately turned to the powerful Chu Lingjun and said, "Sister Chu, we need to leave this cursed place as quickly as possible."
Chu Lingjun’s lovely brow furrowed at the sight of so many Man-Eating Flowers. "I’ll clear a path. You all go first!"
"It’s too dangerous for one person. Let’s work together," Long Chen suggested.
Chu Lingjun nodded. "Everyone, gather around me."
Upon Chu Lingjun’s command, everyone quickly moved to her side.
"Press forward with all your strength. I’ll clear the way at the front," she instructed, and in that instant, the Battle qi within her erupted.
She leaped forward, plunging straight toward the Man-Eating Flowers. Long Chen and the others followed closely behind. As they moved, a long sword appeared in Chu Lingjun’s hand. The sword radiated a faint golden glow. Under her control, the golden long sword floated beside her, spinning rapidly until it transformed into several phantom blades.
Chu Lingjun brought two fingers together and shouted firmly, "Go!"
The phantom blades shot out simultaneously, enveloping the group like a protective shield and severing any Man-Eating Flower that tried to attack. Meanwhile, the original golden long sword forged ahead, cutting down all the flowers in their path and carving out a path to safety.
No wonder she’s number one on the Martial Roll. Her strength is truly formidable! There’s still a significant gap between her and me.
Just as they were about to leave the area infested with Man-Eating Flowers, Li Tianhao laughed. "These reckless Man-Eating Flowers actually thought they could eat us? What a joke!"
"Since that’s the case, I’ll cut down a few more for fun before we go!"
The moment he finished speaking, Li Tianhao darted out of Chu Lingjun’s protective perimeter.
"Senior Brother Li, what are you doing?" the disciples of the Heaven Institute cried out in alarm. "Get back here! It’ll be a disaster if you get tangled up in those things!"
"Don’t worry," Li Tianhao said dismissively, full of pride. "With my strength, these flowers can’t touch me. Just watch closely and see how I slice up these damn things!"
He had effortlessly cut down several Man-Eating Flowers earlier. He didn’t take the threat of these flowers seriously at all. Moreover, they were at the edge of the Man-Eating Flower territory. If trouble arose, he was confident he could escape at top speed, leaving the flowers unable to harm him.
He swiftly swung his sword twice. The Man-Eating Flowers in front of him fell instantly.
"Exhilarating!" Li Tianhao laughed heartily.
Chu Lingjun shouted sternly, "If you don’t want to die, come back now!"
"Sister Chu, don’t worry. I’ll be fine," Li Tianhao said confidently, glancing back at her.
"Senior... Senior Brother Li, r-run!"
Suddenly, the faces of the Disciples of Martial Sect were masks of pure terror. Chu Lingjun and Long Chen were slightly taken aback.
"What’s wrong?" Li Tianhao was puzzled, seeing everyone’s reaction.
At that moment, a massive shadow slowly appeared before him.
HISS... HISS...
From behind him, an equally piercing sound was heard. This sound made Li Tianhao’s heart tremble violently! A sense of foreboding washed over him!
He slowly turned around, and with a single glance, his face went deathly pale.
A gigantic snake was coiled there, its head raised four meters high, its body a full two meters thick. The giant snake stared intently at Li Tianhao, its forked tongue flicking in and out.
