"Where exactly is the exit?"
Lu Changsheng held the cauldron in his left hand and cradled the Lion Cub in his right, anxiously searching for an exit within the crystal cave.
Yet this crystal cave was far too intricate. Its branching paths stretched in every direction, like a maze that left one dizzy and disoriented.
Before long, Lu Changsheng somehow circled back into the stone cavern and saw that dangling stalactite again.
"Damn it!"
Lu Changsheng cursed under his breath.
Just then, a burst of laughter suddenly came from outside the cavern.
"Ha ha ha! Big Brother, we killed the Purple Crystal Thunderwing Lion King. The Thunder Spirit Milk is ours now!"
"Not good!"
Hearing that familiar voice, Lu Changsheng's expression changed slightly.
He had not expected Chen Hai and the others from the Lone Wolf Gang to kill the Purple Crystal Thunderwing Lion King so quickly!
"Found it! The Thunder Spirit Milk is inside this stone cavern!"
Excited voices rang out.
Lu Changsheng was just about to hide when Chen Hai and the others had already entered the stone cavern ahead of him.
As Chen Hai and the others stormed into the cavern, they froze at the sight of Lu Changsheng, holding a cauldron in his left hand and the Lion Cub in his right.
They were dumbfounded. They had never expected someone to be inside the stone cavern!
"Hehe..."
The moment Lu Changsheng met the gazes of the Lone Wolf Gang members, he gave an awkward smile.
"Lu Changsheng?! What are you doing in this lion's den?!"
Zhang Meng was the first to recover, and he immediately barked fiercely.
"Big Brother, I get it now. This guy must have slipped into the lion's den while we were fighting the Lion King, intending to steal the Thunder Spirit Milk!"
Zhao Yuan suddenly understood.
"Thunder Spirit Milk!"
At that moment, Chen Hai and the others looked toward Lu Changsheng's hands and saw the milky substance in the Sky Swallowing Cauldron, glowing with silver light.
It really was Thunder Spirit Milk!
At the sight of the Thunder Spirit Milk, greed appeared in Chen Hai and the others' eyes.
"Heh, I never thought a piece of trash like you could be so crafty. While our Lone Wolf Gang was locked in fierce battle with the Lion King, you sneaked into the lion's den to steal the Thunder Spirit Milk. You nearly got away with it!"
Chen Hai said coldly.
"Big Brother, you absolutely cannot let this guy off this time. The Ink Gang stood up for him last time. Let's see who can save him now!"
Zhang Meng sneered.
"Lu Changsheng, you really know how to seek your own death. Now that you've fallen into the hands of our Lone Wolf Gang, we'll make sure you taste some suffering!"
Zhao Yuan added sinisterly.
"Is that so? I'm afraid your Lone Wolf Gang doesn't have what it takes!"
Lu Changsheng showed no fear.
Over the past half month, he had trained in the back mountain, and his strength had improved enormously. Though he was only at the third level of Core Condensation Realm, he was still confident he could defeat Chen Hai, who was at the sixth level of Core Condensation Realm!
"How arrogant! Hand over the Thunder Spirit Milk and the Lion Cub, and I might grant you a quick death!"
Chen Hai said with a gloomy expression.
"No!"
Lu Changsheng refused decisively.
"You're courting death!"
Chen Hai flew into a rage.
"Big Brother, leave this brat to me. Why would you need to personally deal with such trash?"
At this moment, a lean, tall figure stepped forward. This skinny youth was named Zhou He, and the aura of the fourth level of Core Condensation Realm radiated from his body.
"Die!"
Boom!
Like a fierce tiger pouncing on prey, Zhou He shot toward Lu Changsheng.
"Eight Desolations Palm!"
Zhou He gave a cold shout. Spiritual power gathered in his palm as he viciously struck toward Lu Changsheng's crown.
"Hmph!"
Lu Changsheng snorted coldly and clenched his fist. Arcs of silver lightning danced across it.
A dull, thunderous boom rang through the cave as Lu Changsheng's Wind Thunder Fist blasted forth, colliding with Zhou He's Eight Desolations Palm.
Bang!
At the instant of the collision, Zhou He's expression changed drastically, and his face filled with terror. Lu Changsheng's fist force was overwhelmingly powerful, nearly shattering his palm force in an instant!
Pfft!
Zhou He's face turned deathly pale as the powerful fist force injured him, making him spit out a mouthful of blood. Under countless shocked gazes, he was sent flying into the stone wall, smashing a huge crater into the cave wall.
Hiss—
At this sight, the Lone Wolf Gang disciples, including Chen Hai, were all so shocked that their gazes turned blank.
Zhou He, at the fourth level of Core Condensation Realm, had actually been instantly defeated by Lu Changsheng in a single move!
How was that possible?!
"Third level of Core Condensation Realm!"
Only then did Chen Hai notice the aura around Lu Changsheng.
"What? This guy actually broke through to the third level of Core Condensation Realm?"
Zhang Meng and Zhao Yuan could not help swallowing hard.
They remembered that when they encountered Lu Changsheng in the martial training ground half a month ago, he had only just advanced into the Core Condensation Realm.
They had not expected that in merely half a month, this guy would advance another two minor levels!
Even more terrifying, with only the strength of the third level of Core Condensation Realm, he had easily defeated Zhou He, who was at the fourth level, with just one move!
"Big Brother, we absolutely cannot spare this bastard! He broke through again in only half a month. If we give him more time, I'm afraid even you will find it difficult to be his match!"
Zhang Meng fanned the flames.
Hearing this, intense killing intent surfaced in Chen Hai's eyes.
Today, no matter what, he had to eliminate Lu Changsheng completely!
Boom!
Chen Hai stepped forward, and the aura of the sixth level of Core Condensation Realm swept out like crashing waves. Even the crystals beneath his feet shattered from the force.
"I'd like to see how many moves a third level of Core Condensation Realm like you can withstand from me!"
Chen Hai said contemptuously.
Whoosh!
The instant his words fell, Chen Hai's figure vanished from the spot like a phantom. This was the Movement Martial Arts he cultivated, Misty Steps!
"What swift footwork!"
Lu Changsheng's expression changed.
Chen Hai's Misty Steps were likely no weaker than his Soaring Dragon Steps!
Boom!
Before Lu Changsheng could react, a fierce palm force suddenly struck from his left. Lu Changsheng's senses were extraordinary, and he immediately spun to the side with swift footwork, causing the palm to miss and slam viciously into the stone wall, shattering even the purple crystals.
"Not bad reflexes!"
Chen Hai sneered.
He did not pause. He immediately swung both fists again and launched another attack.
"Thunder Overlord Fist!"
Chen Hai shouted deeply.
In an instant, silver lightning covered both his fists, and a violent surge of Lightning Power spread outward.
Thunder Overlord Fist was a Yellow-tier Rank 5 Martial Skill, its power fierce and domineering. Chen Hai had unleashed such a powerful martial skill from the very start because he wanted to defeat Lu Changsheng quickly!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
His fists whipped out, one lightning fist after another carrying extremely violent energy as they bombarded Lu Changsheng from all sides like a raging storm.
"Wind Thunder Fist!"
Faced with such a fierce attack, Lu Changsheng neither dodged nor retreated. He actually chose to meet it head-on. Lightning also densely covered his fists, and silver punches flew forth in a mad barrage.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
As the two martial skills clashed, the entire crystal cave shook violently...
