Chapter 47: Waiting for the Hare, Shackle Realm Stage Three!

"What is going on?"

After seeing this scene, the surrounding exotic beasts fell into shock. Once they regained their senses, they instinctively retreated a distance, their eyes filled with fear of this unknown thing! This situation of instant, miserable death made the exotic beasts, despite knowing there might be an opportunity inside, still shrink back.

Now, the reason they were still gathered nearby was simply because they were hesitating and lingering—if they went in, there would be danger, and it would almost certainly mean death, but if they didn't go in, they feared they would miss the opportunity within.

Meanwhile, several dozen miles away from this place, in a jungle, a black light flashed by, and then Jiang Luoli appeared, looking quite disheveled.

Jiang Luoli's clothes were already stained red with blood, and her aura was quite chaotic, yet at this moment she seemed unable to feel the state of her own body. Her exquisite face was filled with worry, "The Poison King is becoming increasingly uncontrollable. If this continues, it will be very difficult to master it."

"It seems I must speed up my actions. The Poison King must be used by me, otherwise..."

While pondering, a look of terror appeared on Jiang Luoli's face, though she did not even notice it herself.

After all, this was the first time she had lacked confidence since her rebirth.

Jiang Luoli recovered her state slightly, and as she looked back toward the location of Yixiantian Canyon, she thought to herself, "In my current state, it might be difficult for me to defeat even an exotic beast of the same realm. It seems the last treasure is not meant for me!"

"Oh well, at least I have already obtained the Hunyuan Flag, so it's not as if I have no gains!"

She only stayed there for a short while before turning and leaving.

As time passed, more and more exotic beasts gathered outside Yixiantian Canyon. Because there wasn't enough space, some beasts even arrogantly pushed over trees that were in the way, forcibly clearing an open area! The later arrivals had not seen the first beast rush into the Kongjianliefeng and die instantly, so now they were all attracted by the possibilities inside.

As the saying goes, ignorance is fearless, so after many exotic beasts arrived, they directly entered the rift in groups.

The beasts that arrived earlier were just about to watch a good show when they suddenly discovered that after the others went in, there was no sound at all—not even a single scream—so they immediately roared and surged forward.

To the exotic beasts, this situation naturally meant the danger inside had been cleared. They were also jealous that the previous batch might take away the opportunities inside, so they immediately sprinted toward the rift.

Everyone wanted to go in and try their luck! The scene was instantly in chaos! After all, the rift was only so large, yet the number of beasts was high, and their bodies were massive. In no time at all, they blocked the place completely, and some beasts even started fighting over who would go in first! "Truly courting death!"

Inside the unique space, Lu Chuan stared at the first batch of exotic beasts that had swarmed in. At this moment, his eyes revealed a chilling killing intent! He was in a very good mood; after all, he had been at a loss regarding the Restriction sealing the Golden Mace outside, and no matter how he thought about it, he couldn't find a way, which made him feel bored. He hadn't expected these exotic beasts to be so considerate, directly delivering themselves to his doorstep.

In this way, he could just harvest a wave of Evolution Value.

"Bang!"

A massive snake tail swept out. Before a single exotic beast could even see what had attacked it, it was sent flying back wildly, and while still in mid-air, it breathed its last on the spot.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

In an instant, the exotic beasts were sent flying one after another. Some of their bodies couldn't even withstand Lu Chuan's powerful attacks and shattered on the spot, causing a layer of blood mist to gradually permeate the area, and the bloody scent in the air grew increasingly thick.

In just a short moment, all the exotic beasts that had entered were ruthlessly slaughtered by Lu Chuan; not a single one escaped.

After all, the highest strength among the beasts that entered this time was only Awakening Realm Mid-Stage. It was good enough that they weren't trembling in front of him, so how could they possibly rise up to resist? To Lu Chuan, none of these guys were even worth fighting!

"Ding!"

"Congratulations to the host for a successful devouring, rewarded with 5 points of Evolution Value!"

"Ding..."

As the devouring began, the system's voice rang out in Lu Chuan's mind.

He acted as if he hadn't heard it and continued his relentless slaughter.

The exotic beasts outside saw that the rift had entries but no exits, but they weren't surprised, so they continued to swarm in endlessly, leading to an almost infinite supply of slaughter for Lu Chuan with zero pressure.

He even guarded right next to the entrance, killing every beast he saw, as if these beasts were all voluntarily delivering themselves to him.

Three full days and nights passed. Lu Chuan didn't even remember how many exotic beasts he had killed and devoured, but when he glanced casually at his attributes, he found that he had already accumulated 4000 points of Evolution Value.

"Enough!"

At this moment, Lu Chuan revealed a smile, and without a second thought, he added all these Evolution Value points to his level to upgrade.

Hum—

In an instant, a majestic force surged forth, rampaging through his body and changing his physique at an extremely fast speed.

Lu Chuan looked within himself and was shocked to find that the second shackle in his body had collapsed under the impact of this force, and the long-accumulated power surged out, spreading throughout his entire body.

With a powerful wave of aura spreading in all directions, Lu Chuan's momentum soared rapidly, and his entire body became extraordinarily divine; clearly, he had broken through.

"Shackle Realm Stage Three, not bad, not bad!"

Lu Chuan felt this even more powerful strength and couldn't help but nod secretly.

With the system's help, upgrading was almost instantaneous, yet Lu Chuan could clearly feel the many changes within, so despite having experienced it many times, he was still incredibly happy about it.

Meanwhile.

"What exactly is the situation inside?" Some exotic beasts watching from the outside finally couldn't hold back and let out roars to ask.

Logically speaking, since the beasts that entered hadn't made a sound, it meant there was no danger, but three days and nights had passed. Even if there were a mountain of gold and silver inside, they would have emptied it by now, right? Yet, until now, not a single beast had returned.

This made the exotic beasts watching from the outside feel a chill in their hearts.

A giant spider stopped the beast at the very front and asked, but the latter had a strange expression, looking at it as if it were an idiot, "None of those who went in have ever come out. You're asking me, but how would I know what the situation is inside?"

Hearing these voices, some impatient exotic beasts didn't want to wait any longer and were about to rush into the rift, but a roar of extreme shock immediately rang out from the side, "You still dare to go in?"

"Don't you know, hundreds of guys went in earlier, and they still haven't come out!"

"I'm telling you, this is the Devouring Beast Land; once you go in, you don't come back. It's a true death trap!"

In an instant, all the exotic beasts suppressed their inner impatience and dared not step into that rift.

Even some of the beasts squeezed at the very front retreated again, fearing they might not be able to resist rushing in.

This news spread from one to ten, ten to a hundred. In the end, even the exotic beasts that arrived later dared not enter after hearing these remarks, but they were unwilling to leave, so they had to wait near the rift.

Perhaps they still harbored the thought that if a beast came out, they could snatch the other's opportunity.

But who would make such thoughts public?

"Hmph!"

"A bunch of cowards!"

The many exotic beasts had been crowded and waiting in Yixiantian Canyon for a long time. On the fourth day, an exotic beast capable of crushing them finally arrived. It let out a cold snort, its voice filled with disdain.

They turned their heads one after another to look, and saw a leopard covered in burning flames, high-spirited and vigorous, walking over with large strides! Although the fire leopard was only about eight meters long, it exuded an extremely powerful aura. Wherever it passed, the other exotic beasts dared not meet its gaze, and they hurriedly stepped aside, clearing a path for it.

It was one of the overlords of Qinling. Now, all the exotic beasts present knew of its existence, so they dared not challenge its edge!

"Oh my, King Fire Leopard has arrived!"

I don't know which exotic beast let out a roar, but the exotic beasts crowded at the very front retreated one after another.

Before long, the Fire Leopard arrived at the very front; at this moment, those eyes stared at the Kongjianliefeng for a long time, and in the end, it said nothing at all.

It gave a light leap and darted directly into that black Kongjianliefeng.

This action caused countless exotic beasts to cheer endlessly, but no one dared to actually go in.

After all... aside from the inexplicable danger within this Kongjianliefeng, the Fire Leopard's temper was also not good, and no one dared to contend with it.

It would be better to wait for the Fire Leopard to come out, and then they could go in to pick up some scraps.

"Roar... ugh!"

The Fire Leopard passed through the Kongjianliefeng and subconsciously roared out loud, wanting to use this to probe for any potential danger inside, but it was dumbfounded just halfway through its roar, and even that sound came to an abrupt halt!

Just a short distance away, a massive snake body over ten meters thick was seen lying horizontally there, and those enormous snake eyes, devoid of any emotion, were staring right at it at this moment.

This made the Fire Leopard tremble instantly, and it tucked its tail between its legs very naturally, not daring to act presumptuously.

This massive snake body was Lu Chuan.

Seeing the Fire Leopard reveal such a posture, he secretly sneered in his heart, and then hissed incessantly, "Submit, or die!"

Because of the fear in its heart, the Fire Leopard did not move despite hearing these words, which made Lu Chuan think the other party was unwilling to submit, so he immediately swung his snake tail casually.

"Bang!"

In an instant, the Fire Leopard flew off sideways, spitting out several mouthfuls of blood amidst strange cries, its aura wilting all at once.

Lu Chuan slithered in front of the Fire Leopard and was just about to kill and devour it, but after sensing the Shackle Realm Stage One aura emanating from the other party, he immediately had the thought of subjugating it.

As the 【Soul-Seizing Pupil】 was activated, the Fire Leopard quickly became obedient, and now it even showed signs of submission before Lu Chuan, "Boss!"

"Hmm, stay to the side, don't bother me."

"Yes!"

Lu Chuan did not care what the Fire Leopard wanted to do, but now he suddenly heard a few crisp sounds.

He turned his head abruptly and looked toward the stone tower, discovering that the seal outside the Golden Mace finally had some movement; that layer of transparent energy film was shattering into pieces just like glass.

"Got it!"

For a moment, Lu Chuan was overjoyed; he directly flicked his tail to coil around the Golden Mace and pulled it back toward his side.
