Chapter 725

“d.a.m.nit, how did I end up circling back here?”

Long Chen was gloomy . He didn’t know how many spiritual beasts he had killed as he had rushed along . But after countless forks in the road, he had returned to his original location .

“Continuing like this is out of the question . I have to think of something . ” This time, he left behind a mark at the fork before continuing . He found that not long after, he appeared on a completely foreign path .

“f.u.c.k this . I’m not playing this game,” cursed Long Chen . He directly closed his eyes and tried to sense the general direction of the thing he needed . This maze had continuously blocked him, and now, he was out of patience .

“It’s in that direction . ”

Long Chen began to walk in a direction that had no path and was full of mist . Long Chen suddenly took out a saber .

The last Enchanted saber he had used had exploded after he had used the second form of Split the Heavens . He could only replace it with another . But this was a pole saber, a yanyuedao . Two-thirds of it was the handle, while the blade only took up a third . There was a huge difference compared to the normal sabers he used . However, he had no better weapons now, so he could only use it .

After traveling an hour through the mist, a path appeared in front of him . But Long Chen didn’t follow that path . Instead, he continued in a straight line toward the thing that he sensed .

He didn’t know how far that thing was . What he wanted to find was the thing the vice sect master had mentioned at the end .

Suddenly, he heard some sounds . Long Chen rushed in that direction . A small path appeared in front of him, and there was a woman lying on the ground, her expression pale and twisted, as if she was undergoing a painful struggle .

Long Chen immediately went up to her and pressed a hand on her forehead . His powerful Spiritual Strength surged into her mind-sea . She was currently being attacked by a foreign Spiritual Strength, but Long Chen’s Spiritual Strength destroyed it .

“Many thanks, senior apprentice-brother!” She opened her eyes and looked at him gratefully .

Just now, she had been attacked by several powerful spiritual beasts . Although she had done her best to kill them, one of them had managed to invade her mind-sea, almost exterminating her soul .

With her soul being attacked, she had no time to crush the jade tablet . Just thinking about it filled her with terror .

“You’re welcome . Do you know where the place you can see your future is?” asked Long Chen .

“Senior apprentice-brother Long Chen!” she gasped .

“I just want to gain some experience . I have no other intentions . Have you run into it?”

“I didn’t, but I ran into a senior apprentice-sister from the seventeenth supermonastery who said she ran into Future Lake . That Future Lake actually took the initiative to ask her if she wanted to see her future . She was so terrified that she fled,” she said .

“Future Lake? That name does sound pretty magical . Do you know its general direction?” asked Long Chen .

“Senior apprentice-brother Long Chen, are you really planning on going there? The vice sect master said…”

“Don’t worry, I wouldn’t do something as stupid as trying to divine my future . That would just destroy a person’s Dao-heart . I just want to gain experience . ”

Only after hearing this did she say, “I remember the location . That senior apprentice-sister was very nice and she told me not to go in that direction . If you want to go there to gain experience, I can bring you there . ”

She led Long Chen in a certain direction . After a few dozen turns, even Long Chen was shocked by her amazing memory . It seemed that anyone who could attend this trial was truly extraordinary .

“We’ve arrived . ”

Long Chen looked around and saw mist everywhere . He couldn’t see anything . He was just about to ask her about this when she said, “This is the fork . If you go left, you’ll reach Future Lake . I… I don’t dare to go . According to that senior apprentice-sister, that place is too strange . ”

“Then thank you . I’ll go take a look . With how terrifying you make it sound, even I’m getting nervous,” laughed Long Chen .

“Then you really shouldn’t go . ”

“But, how can you allow yourself to be defeated by fear? Since I’ve decided to look, then I’m going to take a look!”

Without another word, Long Chen walked off . The mist completely blocked his vision after just a few steps, and he wasn’t even able to see her anymore . He quickened his footsteps .

After over two hours, Long Chen still didn’t see any lake . He even suspected that she had tricked him . But there was no reason for her to trick him, and after all, he had just saved her .

The strange thing was that there were no spiritual beasts on this path . There were also no forks in the road . He could only continue onward .

Finally, after six hours, the path came to a dead end .

“What the f.u.c.k? She really did trick me?!” Long Chen couldn’t help being enraged .

“Do you want to know your future?”

Suddenly, a spiritual fluctuation appeared . The mist in front of him slowly dissipated, revealing a lake . The lake’s surface was as flat as a mirror, and the mist around it made it appear extremely mysterious .
