Chapter 295: Danger Lurks All Around
Just as the sense of danger enveloped hihtening bea
In this criticalChen closed his eyes and the Boulder’s Heart coated his consciousness in a protective layer
The beaht into his eyes in an atteh to his consciousness from there
The mental defenses of the Boulder’s Heart, however, obstructed this bea Chen felt his consciousness waver strongly as it was nearly shattered by this single blow His htened in response He felt that he was about to freeze spontaneously
“This is bad!”
The o Chen’s mind as he restrained the horror in his heart, picked up his feet, and frantically ran forward
He knew that he couldn’t afford to spend even a second longer in this place
The beaht that shot out froh to the soul, attack it directly, and then completely solidify a person intoChen was now a hundred percent certain that those humanoid sculptures weren’t poured out of metal at all, but were candidates who had once appeared on the tenth floor
It o, or even acy realenerations of people, and countless olden mountain as well
Those randomly scattered sculptures were definitely practitioners who had once passed by here and hadn’t been on their guard against the metallic eyes of this statue
This was si Chen ran up a few hundred steps in one go, slowing down only when he was far, far away from the statue
A trace of fear still reht of what had just transpired
If his reaction had been even a little bit slower just now, or the defenses of the Boulder’s Heart a tad bit weaker, then he would’ve surely joined the ranks of those sculptures
Even with the speed of his reaction and the Boulder’s Heart absorbing h to make him feel like his body was as heavy as lead, hisas well
There had likely been less than five percent of the original strength left in the light beah the defenses of the Boulder’s Heart Yet those less than five percent had nearly been enough to hold hih to cause cold sweat to pour fro Chen’s body
He circulated the fire spirit power fro the rey beam attack in his body
Of the five elements, the fire of the south was the antithesis of the metal of the west The power of fire was a natural enemy of the power of metal
Beneath the refinement of the fire Lotus, the traces of radually cleansed and Jiang Chen’s body slowly recovered itself
“The beauty of the tenth floor was just a ruse alright Although not as frightening as a olden eyes of the statue areChen’s heart still palpitated in fright
There was at least a warning to thebefore a twister formed
However, this vicious statue was far too wicked Its eyes had suddenly flashed open and the beaht into his soul The attack had been as fast as light and had caught hi Chen training the Boulder’s Heart to the point of being able to deploy it in a heartbeat, that vicious gaze likely would’ve invaded his soul and turned hi
Counting the steps, he’d walked precisely one third of the ten thousand steps in front of him
“Could it be that there are three tests on the tenth floor, and that the vicious golden eyes of the status isthat was indeed likely
If that truly was the case, then the path up to the second test would be relatively safe
Indeed, things were as Jiang Chen had predicted Nothing much happened to him between the three-thousandth and six-thousandth step
“It looks like the intent behind the tests to the tenth floor is more deliberate than the previous nine floors Those on the previous nine floors were all rando planned for the tenth floor Therefore, ill be the second test?”
Jiang Chen also knew that there was no way back now that he had made it this far
He walked up a full six thousand steps and neared the co to his calculations
If things really were as he’d concluded, then he wasn’t too far froaze suddenly froze as soon as he followed this thought through to the end
There was a large ravine in front of hiiant axe and viciously carved it into theravine was like an enormous scar on the side of therise anxiousness in any onlookers at first glance
Jiang Chen stood in front of the ravine and looked in the distance If this were the outside world, a third level spirit realm practitioner who could fly for a brief period of time could make it past this ravine
However, thanks to the restraining force of theChen estimated that he’d have to split his journey into three, four so over the ravine
But, grotesquely shaped rocks dotted the surface of the ravine and there was no place he could push off from at all
“Could this be the second test?” Uneasiness grew in Jiang Chen’s heart as he looked at the intersecting rocks beneath him
