The further they walked, the more eerie and frightening this damp and gloomy Evil Python Valley became. However, strangely, not a single one of those poisonous snakes and insects that should be causing great trouble for Lu Chen and Atsu jumped out to attack them.
Moreover, from what they could see, some of the snakes and insects that appeared abnormally left in the same direction, as if they had sensed that something bad was about to happen.
The direction that they were escaping to was the direction that Lu Chen and Atsu had come from.
Lu Chen could not help but turn his head to take a look. He only saw that the road behind him was completely quiet and he could not see anything strange. Moreover, he recalled that along the way, he did not see anything or anything that could affect the Evil Python Valley. Moreover, it seemed like the impact was so great.
Perhaps … it was only something that happened in that barbarian tribe?
No matter how Lu Chen pondered, the only possibility was the tragic massacre that occurred in the barbarian tribe not long ago. When he thought of this, a thought involuntarily came to his mind. He used his hand to touch his chest, where the ancient Fire God's Staff was quietly lying in that mysterious tree hole.
After musing for a moment, Lu Chen called out to Atsu and quickened his pace. No matter how one put it, the situation in the Evil Python Valley seemed a little strange. It was best to leave as soon as possible. Otherwise, even though those poisonous snakes and insects did not have any intention of attacking them, who could guarantee that those bloodthirsty and savage Demonic Beasts would not go berserk in the next moment?
However, as they walked, Lu Chen could not help but shake his head as he thought about the journey over the past few days. He felt a little emotional.
After escaping from the Snake Overgrown Forest, he had been fleeing south. Originally, he thought that the two most difficult and dangerous places along the way would be the Rat Hill Mountain and the Evil Python Valley. Who knew that in the end, these two places seemed to be the easiest to pass through. On the other hand, his experience in that unassuming barbarian tribe on that small mountain was a soul-stirring experience.
As he walked, Lu Chen's footsteps gradually slowed down. The feeling of being pricked appeared again, as if there was a pair of cold eyes staring at him from behind.
Lu Chen's expression changed. Initially, he thought that this feeling was due to his keen intuition when he was being chased by the powerful Floating Clouds Division assassins. However, almost all of those assassins had died in the barbarian tribe on the small mountain ridge. In other words, the person who was spying on him in the dark was still following him like a maggot in his tarsal bone.
What kind of enemy was this?
A trace of solemnity flashed across Lu Chen's eyes.
…
The terrain of the Evil Python Valley was twisting and turning. Even if there were no dangerous snakes or insects obstructing the way, it would still take a day to walk.
When they were halfway there, they saw all kinds of strange phenomena along the way. This made Lu Chen completely certain that the strange behavior of the snakes, insects and poisonous creatures in the Evil Python Valley was indeed a mass migration. They were all leaving this dangerous valley that they had lived in for many years.
This strange phenomenon became even more obvious when Lu Chen tried to take out the half of the Fire God's Staff. Almost all the snakes and insects immediately sped up and fled, as if they were especially afraid of the half of the Fire God's Staff, which looked so old and withered that it would soon turn into ashes.
None of the poisonous creatures dared to go near Lu Chen and Atsu. This gave people the illusion that they were gods when they walked in this famous dangerous valley.
However, this unexpected surprise did not last long. Because when Lu Chen and Atsu were about to walk out of the Evil Python Valley, they were once again ambushed.
This time, it was also a group of black-clothed men. However, what was different from the previous batch was that they were real Evil Cult assassins.
Faced with Lu Chen, this new batch of assassins were clearly much more agitated. When they saw Lu Chen's figure, their murderous aura covered the sky and covered the earth. Without any unnecessary words, they directly charged over while shouting.
Lu Chen and Atsu fought and retreated as they fled towards the south with all their might. At the same time, he laughed bitterly in his heart. According to his original plan, although it would be troublesome for him to pass through these two incomparably dangerous places, the Rat Hill Mountain and the Evil Python Valley were more useful in hindering their pursuers. Who knew that with this series of strange changes, although the path was easier to walk, the pursuers' speed was much faster than expected.
In terms of fighting ability, this batch of Evil Cult assassins was much weaker than the Fuyunji people before them. Their valiance was also far inferior. However, the Evil Cult's side was more ferocious and crazy. Under the bone-deep hatred, once they found Lu Chen, it would be a fight to the death. This caused great trouble for Lu Chen's escape route.
Along the way, when the sky darkened, Lu Chen led Atsu out of the Evil Python Valley. Behind him, there were seven to eight corpses. However, his body which had almost recovered, had many new wounds.
Until late at night, under the cover of the darkness and a series of treacherous methods, Lu Chen finally managed to shake off those maniacal assassins.
However, the road ahead was boundless and the night was deep, Lu Chen did not feel happy at all. He knew in his heart that after dawn the next day, those Evil Cult assassins would definitely continue to pursue him. And as time passed, the number of Evil Cult assassins who wanted to kill him would definitely increase. Until he exhausted all his energy and strength, that would be the time of his miserable death.
Probably... they would not leave him with a whole corpse.
Lu Chen thought to himself as he dragged his bleeding body and ran for his life in the darkness. Even a moment to catch his breath seemed like a luxury.
Perhaps it was because he had seen too much blood these few days, or maybe it was because he had just fought for a long time, his injuries had numbed his brain. Right now Lu Chen's mind was somewhat blank. His only instinct was probably to get away from the threat behind him and run forward with all his might.
His target was the Longchuan River! As long as he passed through there, he should be free.
Or perhaps, he would just die there.
His original intuition turned from sharp to dull and then to numb, including the vigilance that had been hidden in his heart finally relaxed involuntarily. That late at night, Lu Chen finally paid the price.
He saw a ray of light suddenly lit up from the darkness.
That was a sword light.
That sword light, bright and vigorous, full of vigor, full of spirit and energy, wonderful to the peak, a sword directly pierced the vital point!
Before he could react, his flesh and blood had already split open, his bones were broken, directly pierced into the side of Lu Chen's ribs, a sword pierced into his chest and he had no strength to evade.
At that moment he suddenly understood, the most dangerous poisonous snake had never left, but had an appalling patience, waiting until he was at his weakest and then with one sword attack, wounded the enemy.
Seeing that he was about to be pierced by the sword and die on the spot, suddenly, a black shadow rushed over from the side, made a furious roar and pounced on Lu Chen.
However, the sword light was so intense that it didn't retreat at all. The remaining sword light swept past, and Ah-Tu's roar instantly turned into a mournful wail. Blood splattered everywhere, and he fell beside Lu Chen.
