Chapter 34 - A Natural Treasure Appears!

Chapter 34 A Natural Treasure Appears!

Lu Huai did not expect that someone would come to stir up trouble so quickly.

When he heard the rules from Lan Yue, he had already expected such a situation to happen.

Lin Xiaomeng heard the sound and opened her eyes. “Who are they?”

Wei Anbo leaned closer to Lin Xiaomeng and whispered the other party’s intentions into her ear. After hearing what Wei Anbo had to say, Lin Xiaomeng’s expression changed.

“Lu Huai, I’ll work together with you in dealing with them.”

Lu Huai turned around and looked at Lin Xiaomeng, who was covered in injuries. “Since you’re injured, don’t move around.”

It did not really matter to him if he was being challenged like this.

He, Lu Huai, was not afraid.

He just needed to resolve this matter quickly.

The boy leading the other party looked at Lu Huai arrogantly. “What? Do you plan to fight the three of us by yourself?”

“Hah! Just try it!”

Before he even finished speaking, his party of three had already spread out and surrounded Lu Huai.

Lu Huai watched all of this in silence.

The three people who seemed to be working closely together were full of flaws in Lu Huai’s eyes.

If he wanted to escape, he could find more than ten escape routes, and the three of them would definitely not be able to stop him.

“I’ll give you another chance. Hand over the blood essence! Otherwise, don’t blame me for being impolite and taking it by force!” The boy leading the other party continued to threaten Lu Huai.

“Why should I give it to you?”

Lu Huai replied indifferently.

The boy’s expression changed when he heard Lu Huai’s reply. He then said, with a hint of ruthlessness in his tone, “Hmph! It seems that you do not know how to appreciate goodwill! Go, teach this guy a lesson!”

“Student Lu Huai, be careful!”

Wei Anbo shouted in worry.

Lin Xiaomeng shook her head and said,

“You

don’t need to worry about Lu Huai. In fact, you

should be more worried for those three

instead.”

The three enemies quickly rushed Lu Huai.

However, they missed. When they raised their

heads and took a look, they realized that Lu Huai had already left his previous position and appeared somewhere else.

What’s going on?

The boy leading the other party was somewhat

puzzled, but he did not think too much about it. He activated his martial skill and attacked Lu

Huai.

Lu Huai frowned. He did not intend to hurt anyone, but the other party had used a martial skill right from the get-go. It was apparent that the other party was serious about trying to take his things by force.

Are they really going so far just to pass the examination?

Lu Huai’s figure moved away, and his three enemies had no way to even touch him.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Three muffled sounds could be heard in quick succession as Lu Huai gave each of them a

whip kick.

The three people who had been extremely arrogant just now fell to the ground and wailed

in pain in the next second. At this moment, they had difficulty even getting up from the

ground.

In fact, Lu Huai had actually held back his strength quite a bit this time.

After all, he did not want to hurt anyone.

“It looks like you’re rather capable…” The boy leading the other party struggled to stand up and looked at Lu Huai with some fear in his

eyes.

“Take this! Flame blade!”

The boy took advantage of the moment when

he thought Lu Huai had let his guard down and immediately launched a martial skill.

A dagger wreathed in flames thrust at Lu

Huai’s face!

Clang!

The sound of metal colliding could be heard.

The dagger, still burning, fell from the air like

a meteor.

The boy was not able to react at all, and a

heavy punch that made both his eyes pop out suddenly came right at him.

He staggered backward and fell to the ground

in pain while clutching his stomach.

“Ah!”

A miserable scream resounded in the forest.

“Murakami-kun!”

“Murakami-kun, are you okay?”

The other two rushed up and looked at Lu Huai

in fear. They quickly took the boy called Murakami away and escaped from the area.

Lu Huai only put away his dagger and was too

lazy to chase after them.

It was Lin Xiaomeng’s turn to be surprised

again.

She could not be more familiar with the martial skill that Lu Huai had just used!

“Student Lu Huai! How did you learn windward

step and cutting edge?” Lin Xiaomeng asked in surprise.

Lu Huai had already thought of an excuse and promptly replied.

“You mean those martial skills? I’ve learned

them before.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiaomeng did not ask

any further, but she was still secretly shocked inwardly.

After all, these two martial skills were not unique martial skills.

However, she could not see anything special about Lu Huai’s windward step or cutting edge. In other words, Lu Huai’s grasp of the martial

skills were simply that much higher than hers. Not only are Lu Huai’s cultivation and combat proficiency higher than mine, but he’s also

more talented with regard to martial skills than

I am?

Lin Xiaomeng could not help but feel slightly disappointed.

“Alright, let’s take a break and recuperate. We

still have not collected enough demonic beast blood essence.”

Lu Huai planned to join the battles tomorrow.

After all, the current amount of demonic beast blood essence could not even meet the passing criteria for one person.

If they continued at this pace for the next three

days, none of the three of them would pass the

test.

However, what Lu Huai did not know was…

Their speed could actually already be considered quite fast.

The other teams only had a few tubes of blood

essence.

In order to avoid attracting the attention of the

demonic beasts, Lu Huai put out the fire. After eating, the three of them closed their eyes and rested.

…

In the latter half of the night, Lu Huai was woken up in surprise by a series of vibrations.

Lin Xiaomeng and Wei Anbo also woke up one after another, looking confused. “What’s going on?” Wei Anbo rubbed his eyes. “Why is there suddenly an earthquake?” Lu Huai shook his head. “I don’t know either. I was woken up by the shaking same as you.” It had been almost a minute since the three of

them woke up.

The shaking did not weaken at all. Instead, it became stronger and stronger.

The pile of wood on the ground made a creaking sound.

All of a sudden, a blinding pillar of light shot

up into the sky ahead of them, lighting up a large portion of the night sky.

Lu Huai squinted his eyes and looked at the

pillar of light in confusion. “Who’s that?”

This strange situation reminded Lu Huai of the

beast tide they encountered back in the railcar. It made him wonder if this was also a beast

tide.

But after giving it a little more thought, that did not seem right. This was the place where the Heavenly Divine Academy’s entrance examination was being held, so it should not be possible for a beast tide to appear here. Lin Xiaomeng and Wei Anbo were also looking

at the pillar of light in confusion. Then, Lin

Xiaomeng suddenly came to a realization and exclaimed.

“I remember now!”

“My father once told me that there are many

strange natural treasures in the world of demonic beasts.”

“Some natural treasures will cause such a commotion when they appear!”

“I also heard that these natural treasures are

treasures that can increase one’s realm!”

A natural treasure?

Lu Huai’s eyes shifted.

Did he not use such treasures for his body tempering art? Although the people from the major forces had

visited him and given him some gifts, Lu Huai had no use for most of them.

If I can get this thing …

My cultivation realm will definitely rise to another level!

Lu Huai’s eyes gradually lit up. “That thing looks quite scary. It has nothing to

do with us. How about we just focus on

hunting demonic beasts?” Wei Anbo said probingly.

Lin Xiaomeng nodded in agreement. “That’s right. There must be powerful demonic around the treasure. It has nothing to do with

us.

However, Lu Huai did not think so.

A desire was born in his heart.

beasts

Is there a demonic venerable in the Horse

Plains?

Even if there was a demonic venerable, Lu Huai

had the confidence to fight against it. Seeing that Lu Huai was not saying anything,

Lin Xiaomeng immediately guessed what he

was thinking.

“Student Lu Huai, don’t tell me that you intend

to…”

“Mm-hm.”

Lu Huai did not refute.

Wei Anbo looked at Lu Huai and then at Lin Xiaomeng, and finally understood.

“Lu Huai, are you going to look for that

treasure?”

Wei Anbo’s mouth was gaping wide open. He

looked at Lu Huai as if he were looking at a

monster.
