Chapter 1813: Chen Ling... Long Time No See

Chen Ling... Long Time No See

This was the first Divine Dao Ancient Repository Chen Ling had stepped into, and it was also the place where he and Jian Changsheng first met.

Chen Ling originally thought that with his Calamity physique, there would never be a day where he would step into another Divine Dao Ancient Repository again. He didn't expect that at this moment, he would actually enter again in this manner...

Fate was truly unexpected.

Chen Ling didn't follow the others to look for those ten-man pits for combat tempering. He waited until everyone had basically dispersed before stepping out alone, heading straight towards a certain direction.

His figure constantly turned between the rugged terrain, skillfully avoiding the patrol routes of all the Killing Intent figures. This wasn't Chen Ling's first time at the Ancient Vault of the Military Path. He knew which way to go to bypass those troublesome Slaughter Projections...

Ultimately, his current body was just that of an Ordinary Person. If a fight broke out, he would probably really die here.

Chen Ling just advanced along the way until a towering sign stood upon the earth.

—Trial Boundary, strictly forbidden to advance.

Ten-man pits, hundred-man pits, thousand-man pits, ten-thousand-man pits...

The deeper he went, the lower the surrounding temperature became. The icy Killing Intent was like fine, dense needles constantly pricking the surface of his skin, making him feel uncomfortable all over.

According to Liu Qingyan's intelligence, that person saw Jian Changsheng at the location of the Million-Man Pit, and the Million-Man Pit should be in the deepest part of the Ancient Vault of the Military Path... Even Chen Ling hadn't gone this deep the last time.

"Arrived at the hundred-thousand-man pit, huh..." Chen Ling's gaze swept over his surroundings.

"Going in a bit further, it should be there."

At this point, the routes in Chen Ling's memory were used up. He could only rely on his feeling to continue advancing into the depths of the Ancient Vault of the Military Path.

But the deeper he went, the denser the Killing Intent became. Chen Ling could even feel this body begin to tremble. Every step consumed a massive amount of energy, and his entire person's pace grew heavy, as if he was situated in a quagmire.

Right at this moment, a howling sound of tearing air came from behind!

Chen Ling froze. Relying on the combat instincts in his memory, he leaped forward without hesitation... A cold chill brushed past the back of his head.

The youth fell miserably to the ground and immediately looked back. Only to see a tall and sturdy Slaughter Projection holding a long blade standing behind him. The blade's edge emitted a cold glint in the gloom. If Chen Ling's movements had been half a beat slower just now, this youth would probably have been decapitated on the spot.

Crap, discovered by these Slaughter Projections?

This thought flashed through Chen Ling's mind, his gaze incredibly grave. This place was already close to the location of the Million-Man Pit, and the distribution of Slaughter Projections was extremely dense. With just a little carelessness, he would be discovered.

Chen Ling didn't linger to fight. Instead, he immediately turned around and ran. The Combat Power of the Slaughter Projections at this location was not something those on the periphery could compare to. Crushing an Ordinary Person to death was truly a breeze.

But the Slaughter Projection behind him didn't seem to have the intention of letting him go, gripping its long blade and rapidly pursuing to kill him!

This youth's physical fitness wasn't strong. Chen Ling could only rely on his figure advantage to constantly weave through the narrow rock crevices, barely dodging the Slaughter Projection's blade attacks one by one.

But the commotion of this Slaughter Projection's pursuit was truly too great. More and more surrounding Slaughter Projections were attracted by the sound and converged here, leaving less and less space for Chen Ling to flee...

And at this moment, in the reflection of Chen Ling's pupils, an incomparably massive deep pit was gradually approaching before his eyes.

Clang——

Two more Slaughter Projections drew their blades and charged from both sides.

These two Slaughter Projections, plus the numerous figures pursuing him from behind, had completely blocked off his path of retreat. His brain spun rapidly, and gritting his teeth, he used all his strength to leap forward!

His figure practically brushed past the two long blades and flew over, directly rolling down the sloped edge of the deep pit, kicking up billowing dust.

Because this deep pit was truly too large and the slope was also quite long, Chen Ling rolled continuously for a long time. It wasn't until he was covered in bruises that he reached the bottom. On the contrary, those few Slaughter Projections outside the deep pit also carried their blades and jumped down one after another, their feet stepping on the dust as they constantly approached Chen Ling.

Chen Ling lowered his head to look. Only to see that in this Million-Man Pit, the densely packed Slaughter Projections that looked like stone statues also seemed to have sensed his approach. Abruptly turning their heads, a million gazes simultaneously converged on Chen Ling alone...

That monstrous Killing Intent that had almost condensed into physical form soared into the sky from the deep pit!

In front were a million Killing Intents, behind were long-bladed pursuers.

This youth rolled down the slope like a stone, looking as if he was about to fall into the Killing Intent and be shredded into pieces. But instead of despair, a faint light flickered in Chen Ling's eyes!

He took a deep breath and yelled with all his strength:

"——Spades!!!"

Ding——

A pitch-black sword energy swept across the earth in an instant.

The ancient Killing Intent at the peak of Rank 8 was like a crescent moon brushing past like a ghost, directly filling the entire Million-Man deep pit... Chen Ling, with his Ordinary Person body, only felt the hairs all over his body explode, and a suffocating sense of oppression shrouded his entire body!

At this moment, every single muscle on Chen Ling's entire body was trembling because of the Oppressive Aura emitted by this sword strike.

At the same time, the restless million Slaughter Projections in the deep pit all abruptly froze.

Neat sword marks silently surfaced on their necks.

Amidst a faint rustling sound, their bodies condensed from Killing Intent rapidly disintegrated, drifting away into nothingness like black smoke... Millions of black shadows converged together, almost dyeing the entire sky pitch-black.

It wasn't just the million Slaughter Projections in front of Chen Ling, even the few Slaughter Projections pursuing him from behind had their heads lopped off at the same time. Only Chen Ling's body didn't have any sword marks, as if the sword energy had deliberately bypassed him.

Woo woo woo——

The whimpering cold wind howled in the deep pit, gradually dispersing the dense Killing Intent black smoke.

While coughing, Chen Ling staggered up from the ground, his gaze looking toward the direction that sword strike came from... In the drifting dust, black ribbons danced silently. A young figure draped in armor held a sword in one hand, slowly walking toward him.

Seeing that familiar figure, a smile unconsciously surfaced on Chen Ling's brow and eyes.

"Finally..."

"Found you."

Looking at that figure, countless questions surged in Chen Ling's heart. He immediately spoke, "Spades, all these years, what exactly..."

Ding——!

Before Chen Ling's words fell,

A sword edge flashing with a chilling cold glint, carrying a suffocating and terrifying Killing Intent, was pressed against Chen Ling's throat!

Chen Ling was still open-mouthed, his entire person abruptly stiffening... He looked at that familiar yet slightly unfamiliar face before his eyes, his pupils contracting slightly.

"I was wondering which reckless idiot took the wrong path... So it's you..." That figure's pitch-black eyes narrowed slightly, and a cold voice echoed by Chen Ling's ear.

"Chen Ling..."

"Truly... Long time no see."
