Chapter 135: The Heavenly Dao Eye's Defiance of Heaven

After a lot of trouble, the time had already come to past 2 a. m.

In the new camp, the students were all using Dark Energy to recover.

【Chu Youqing broke through to the 14th layer of Qi Gathering, you gain thirty times Chu Youqing's harvest.】

Suddenly, Chu Youqing had another breakthrough.

Lu Xun's strength further increased, breaking through the tenth layer of Condensing Origin and reaching the eleventh layer of Condensing Origin.

The thirtyfold increase also let Lu Xun rise by one layer.

There's no way, one is Qi Gathering, the other is Condensing Origin, and Condensing Origin is not trivial.

Now, Lu Xun can be certain that Chu Youqing definitely got a fortuitous encounter.

But he doesn't know where Chu Youqing is.

As for Chu Youqing's side, Lu Xun isn't actually too worried.

He is worried about Murong Wan.

Murong Wan's strength has broken through three realms; she is likely active below the tenth layer, what if she encounters those alien beings attacking students everywhere?

But worrying is useless; this secret realm is too vast, Lu Xun simply doesn't know where Murong Wan is.

"Right, the Heavenly Dao Eye!"

Lu Xun had a flash of inspiration, suddenly recalling one of his martial divine abilities.

Heavenly Dao Eye!

When he previously used the Heavenly Dao Eye, it was as if he had an omniscient perspective.

He didn't know what effect using the Heavenly Dao Eye in this secret realm would have.

Thinking of it, he did it.

After glancing at Aodaili who was meditating, Lu Xun pretended to go relieve himself, actually came to a deserted place, and activated the Heavenly Dao Eye.

As soon as the Heavenly Dao Eye was activated, Lu Xun's perspective instantly changed.

What he saw was no longer ahead.

His perspective kept rising, and soon the entire secret realm was fully in his view.

Holy crap!

Lu Xun was overjoyed.

He didn't expect the Heavenly Dao Eye to actually be useful.

Unlike last time, last time he opened an omniscient view of the entire Lan Xing.

Now it is for this secret realm.

The layers of the secret realm appeared before Lu Xun.

With a thought, he saw that on the 12th layer of the secret realm, a group of Wanliu Academy students were engaged in a night battle with some starry alien species.

His view shifted again, and Lu Xun saw that on the 17th layer of the secret realm, in many cellar spaces, alien beings were launching attacks everywhere, assaulting the students.

The aliens' fourth realm was not just that earlier batch; there were several more batches.

Immediately after, Lu Xun looked at the 18th layer of the secret realm, where the number of cellar spaces had greatly decreased, to fewer than a hundred.

In the center, within the largest cellar space, an underground city towered atop a high mountain.

Indeed, at the very center of the underground city, there stood a lighthouse.

Lu Xun's gaze fell upon the lighthouse, seeing many demonic beings guarding around it.

"Huh?"

He saw a blood pool beneath the lighthouse.

The blood pool was filled with fresh blood steaming with heat.

At that moment, a winged alien flew over, came above the blood pool, took out a bag, and dumped its contents onto the ground.

Dozens of students' corpses were dumped by him into the blood pool.

Those corpses, upon entering the blood pool, began to melt.

"With so much fresh blood from these genius students, it will surely help Lord Blood Nether break through to the fifth realm!"

"Hahaha, these humans thought they could use these geniuses to retake the secret realm, but they never imagined they'd fall right into our trap!"

The several alien beings beside the blood pool laughed loudly.

"Fifth realm!"

The words of these few aliens startled Lu Xun.

If a fifth-realm alien were to be born, that would be troublesome.

"What are the people above doing, using such a dangerous secret realm for an examination?"

Lu Xun frowned.

Immediately, he recalled Jin Yuhua's words.

Perhaps this is the true examination.

"Is there still a nineteenth layer?"

Lu Xun withdrew his gaze from the lighthouse, and with an overall view, he actually discovered there was still a layer below.

No, it's not a full layer, just a few cellar spaces.

"Chu Youqing!!"

Then he saw Chu Youqing in a cellar space.

At that moment, Chu Youqing was sitting in meditation on a stone on the rock wall.

Suddenly, she seemed to sense something, drew her flying sword, and flew away from there on her sword to the other side of the rock wall.

Lu Xun looked and understood the reason.

It turned out a fiery red fire snake was chasing her.

"She must have had some fortune there; luckily that fire snake can't fly."

After watching for a while, Lu Xun relaxed.

Chu Youqing was actually safest in that cellar space.

He withdrew his gaze and then looked at several other cellar spaces.

Those cellar spaces contained some demon tribesmen.

"No wonder the demon tribes have risen; they must have discovered these cellar spaces."

Lu Xun understood instantly.

Even if these demon tribesmen ate astral exotic species, it would be hard for them to give birth to so many fourth-realm cultivators.

It's fine if they just treat the astral exotic species as food, as long as they pick something edible.

If they use astral exotic species to boost their strength, the risk of bursting their bodies is too great.

Each time they go up a level, there's a considerable chance of their bodies bursting.

Under these circumstances, wanting to break through to the fourth realm is impossible unless Lady Luck possesses them.

"Where is Murong Wan?"

Lu Xun felt the Heaven's Way Eye could not hold up much longer, and he wanted to find Murong Wan.

After searching, Lu Xun successfully found Murong Wan.

She was on the thirteenth level of the cellar, together with a group of students, fending off the suddenly attacking foreign tribesmen.

This time the foreign tribes really launched a full-scale assault.

After watching for a while, Lu Xun relaxed; Murong Wan's combat prowess was strong, and with many students gathered together, the foreign tribesmen could not overcome them.

"We've reached the limit."

Lu Xun's eyes began to ache.

He closed his eyes, ending the use of the Heaven's Way Eye.

This time the Heaven's Way Eye was used for much longer than last time; could it be because last time he looked at the whole Lan Xing, while this time it's just this secret realm?

Lu Xun felt that was possible.

"I don't know if the Heaven's Way Eye works on the Starry Ancient Road."

Lu Xun thought.

The Heaven's Way Eye seems to offer only a single omniscient viewpoint, but anyone who has played games knows how important field of view is.

So, this Heaven's Way Eye is actually incredibly heaven-defying.

If the Heaven's Way Eye could still be used on the Starry Ancient Road, that would be awesome.

Just in this secret realm, besides the cellar space on the nineteenth level, he also discovered several other cellar spaces that no one had found.

These cellar spaces should each contain some good things.

"Let's go to the eighteenth level first!"

However, the most important thing now is not treasure hunting.

But to take advantage of the foreign tribes' full-scale assault, when the underground city is empty, to go to the eighteenth level and settle the secret realm's core.

We must definitely stop that foreign tribesman from reaching the fifth realm.

Otherwise, even the gods won't be able to save them when the time comes.

Thinking of this, Lu Xun hurried back to the camp and found Jin Yuhua and Cheng Gang.

"Go to the eighteenth level overnight?"

"Yes, these foreign tribes are launching attacks everywhere; the underground city must be empty, so now is the perfect time for us to go."

Lu Xun wanted to persuade them to go together to the underground city.

Although his strength is strong, two fists can't ultimately fight four hands, and no one knows how many fourth-realm demon tribesmen remain in the underground city.

Moreover, that guy called Blood Ming is at the peak of the fourth realm, only one step away from the fifth realm.

The fourth-realm cultivators Lu Xun has killed were only at the early stage of the fourth realm.

Therefore, for this battle, we must have helpers.

Lu Xun did not directly say what the Heaven's Way Eye saw, but instead found an excuse.

"Alright, junior, I'll go with you."

Cheng Gang agreed without much hesitation.

"Since you're going, I'll go too."

Jin Yuhua also prepared to go.

"I'll go as well."

Another fourth-realm cultivator.

This is another team from Modu University that has a fourth-realm cultivator; the leader of the fourth realm is Li Qingfeng.

This year, Modu University has a total of two teams with fourth-realm cultivators, which is fewer than Qingbei and Wanliu Academy.

"Should we call Wei Guangyao and them?"

Jin Yuhua asked.

"If we move, they might not necessarily not follow."

Cheng Gang said.

He was right.

When the three teams and Lu Xun's two set out, the students of Wanliu Academy were also startled.

"How did they just leave all of a sudden?"

A student from Ten Thousand Willows Academy was somewhat puzzled.

I understand, they're definitely preparing to go to the Eighteenth Layer overnight.

How smart, these foreign race people are launching attacks everywhere; now is the perfect opportunity!

These students aren't stupid; soon someone caught on.

Let's go, we'll follow!

Wei Guangyao immediately decided to follow.

They indeed came.

Let them come.

Lu Xun didn't think so.

That underground city has foreign race people at the peak of the Four Realms; it's not so easy to crack.

When Lu Xun and the others rushed all the way to the beacon below, they discovered that many foreign race people were guarding it.

Up!

Many students rushed over.

This beacon is relatively hidden and not easy to find; unfortunately, Lu Xun spotted it through the Heaven's Path Eye.

Humans!

Block them!

A great battle was about to break out.

Among the foreign race people here, there are also those of the Four Realms, unfortunately only one.

Seeing the situation turn bad, this guy tried to flee, but was entangled by Aodaili's Space Magic and died under the combined efforts of Lu Xun and a few others.

This time Lu Xun didn't use overly strong methods; he wants to conserve his strength for the battle in the underground city.

Are you preparing to go down overnight?

After the battle ended, a group of students who had fortunately escaped to this underground chamber felt the battle's ripple and rushed over.

These students were basically the ones who had been scattered.

They came from various schools, plus students from the West.

Oh, Aodaili, you don't know, I just almost died...

Aodaili's companion Mina was unexpectedly among them.

Upon learning that Lu Xun and the others planned to go to the underground city overnight, most of these students expressed willingness to join, while some wanted to look for their lost friends.

Thus, a large wave of students went down to the Eighteenth Layer via the beacon.

This way!

Lu Xun headed straight in one direction.

How does he know the direction, Brother Wei? Should we follow?

Follow!

Wei Guangyao hesitated a moment, then decided to follow.

Lu Xun gave him the feeling that things were becoming increasingly not simple.

Even he had a feeling that he couldn't see through it.

Along the way, from time to time they could encounter some foreign race people.

Especially in the passages of the underground chamber, foreign race people often guarded them.

These foreign race people lack the Four Realms; they are completely no match for the students.

Underground City!

After passing through several underground chambers in succession, upon reaching a new underground chamber, Lu Xun, aided by the Far-sight Eye, saw the underground city dozens of li away.
