At this moment, the death energy around Lu An's body was very close to the strength of a level nine expert!
Even Lu An could feel the pressure from this level, and it even affected Lu An's movements to a certain extent. If it were any other level nine expert who did not possess the death energy, they would have to expend a lot of energy to resist this level of pressure. In contrast, Lu An's situation was very good. He only needed to withstand the pressure and did not have to worry about the existence of the death energy.
This level of death energy was something he had never encountered in the past twenty days. The strongest death energy he had encountered in the past was only at the peak of level eight. However, it was not that Lu An did not expect such a situation to occur. According to his deduction, the level nine death energy should appear … within a certain range of the passage to the fifth floor!
That's right, the passage to the fifth floor!
After searching the fourth floor for so long, coupled with the experience of going up to the third floor, Lu An could basically confirm that the passage to the next floor would show a decreasing trend, and the degree of decrease would be very large, almost the same as the gap between realms. The death energy of the fourth floor surged up from the fifth floor, so the death energy around the passage must be exceptionally strong, reaching level nine. Now that the death energy around him had finally reached level nine, Lu An was even more cautious. He knew that it was very likely that he had entered the passage's range.
Thinking about the route of the bird mystical beast, could it be that the mystical beast wanted to go to the passage to the fifth floor?
Why was that? The death energy of the fifth floor must be even stronger. Why would it go back after escaping?
However, Lu An, who had finally found the possible location of the passage, would not continue to think about the mystical beast's thoughts. There were too many possibilities, and it was not something that could be guessed with imagination. Moreover, Lu An had always wanted to take a look at the passage, and even … he wanted to enter the fifth floor!
He wanted to know how strong the death energy was on the fifth floor, and what had become of the fifth floor, and whether there were any life forms there. Most importantly, he wanted to know what secrets the fifth floor held, and whether it would allow him to discover the blank traces of history before the eighth ancient era!
Whoosh!!
Although Lu An's figure slowed down, he still flew resolutely towards the north. He slowed down because he was worried that there might be sudden changes in the surroundings of this passage. Although he wanted to know the secret, there was no doubt that his life was more important. Only by being careful could he live longer.
Lu An kept moving forward. At the same time, the pressure around him kept increasing. Finally, after Lu An flew forward for another moment, the surrounding death energy completely stepped into the realm of grade 9!
Not only was the pressure unbearable for a Level Eight Heavenly Master, but even Lu An's movements were beginning to be restricted. After all, Lu An had only broken through to the ninth level two months ago. The restrictions on him were even more obvious. In such an environment, his speed, strength, and the ability to release the energy in his bloodline were obviously suppressed. It was like an ordinary person entering the ocean, and the strength of his punch would be significantly reduced.
However, even at this point, Lu An still could not sense the existence of the passage. In Lu An's estimation, the passageway might still be very far away from him.
The intensity of the fifth floor might very well make it so that he did not have the strength to enter.
In the thick blood fog, Lu An's figure seemed extremely small. Being in the blood fog, his visibility was already very low. It was even less than three hundred meters. Even the range of his perception was limited to four thousand meters. This environment had already become very dangerous for Lu An.
Four thousand meters. The enemy could completely exceed this distance to attack him. Moreover, with his speed, he might not be able to dodge within four thousand meters.
At the same time, the intensity of the death energy was still increasing.
After flying for a while, Lu An even had to release the energy in his body to resist the external pressure to ensure that he would not be injured. And as he flew further and further, the intensity of the energy he needed to release increased.
After another moment, the pressure around him had already caused Lu An to frown. Now, he already needed to release about fifty percent of his energy to resist the pressure. And this was already a very obvious consumption for him. It was equivalent to a farmer dragging a cart full of food. His speed was much slower than before.
Logically speaking, he should have left.
The current Lu An's ability to deal with danger had been greatly reduced. He should have left this place. However, Lu An did not do so. Instead, he continued to move forward, heading straight north.
The pressure continued to increase, causing Lu An to release sixty percent of his energy.
After a while, Lu An released seventy percent of his energy.
Seventy percent was already very serious. It was equivalent to a farmer dragging two carts forward. Not to mention running, even moving forward normally was very difficult.
Lu An's brows furrowed even more. He was clearly hesitant. However, without seeing the passage to the fifth floor, he was really unwilling to leave just like that.
It was already very likely that he had found the location of the passage. He did not want to return empty-handed. Even if he could not enter the fifth floor with his strength and could not withstand the intensity of the death energy on the fifth floor, he had a reason to leave even if he only took a glance.
Lu An gritted his teeth. His aura was clearly unstable. However, he still forcibly held on, resisting the death energy around him and moving forward with all his might.
Then … eighty percent.
When Lu An used eighty percent of his energy, he could no longer maintain the speed of a Level Nine Heavenly Master and sharply reduced to that of a Level Eight Heavenly Master. The surrounding death energy was already equivalent to a huge suppressive force, making it extremely difficult for him to move forward. However, he still could not see the passage.
Ninety percent …
Lu An gritted his teeth and pushed forward with all his might.
One hundred percent.
When Lu An released all the energy in his body, his figure finally stopped.
He stood in the air. The surrounding death energy forced him to use all his strength to deal with it. Even moving became very difficult. Using one hundred percent of his energy consumed a terrifying amount of energy. It was equivalent to lifting weights with all his strength. At this moment, Lu An's entire body was in an extremely tense state. The huge death energy had almost become a confining force, making it difficult for Lu An to move forward!
However, even at this point, there was still no sign of the passage ahead. Whether it was in sight or perception, in fact, Lu An's perception had been suppressed to the extent that it was inferior to his sight.
He really could not move forward.
Lu An's veins were bulging all over his body. This was no longer a matter of willpower, but a matter of pure strength. No matter how much he thought about it, it was impossible for him to move forward. On the contrary, he had to leave now. Otherwise, once the energy in his body was exhausted, he would not be able to leave even if he wanted to. He would be directly imprisoned by the surrounding powerful energy until he died!
If he retreated now, there was still a chance!
Lu An made a prompt decision. He immediately changed his direction and moved towards the south. The pressure gradually decreased from north to south, but it was still very dangerous for Lu An's current level of exhaustion. The pressure seemed to be even greater because of the exhaustion. Finally, after more than forty-five minutes, Lu An finally escaped from the place where he used one hundred percent of his energy to the place where he used fifty percent of his energy. Along the way, he felt that the pressure around him was rapidly decreasing. At this moment, Lu An could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
"Phew …"
He had escaped.
Lu An really heaved a sigh of relief. On the way back, he was really afraid that his energy would not be able to hold on. What he did just now was still too dangerous. His thoughts were also too wishful.
Obviously, the strength of the death energy in the passageway far exceeded his current strength. The energy that was constantly surging outwards also made him feel a huge pressure. With his current strength, it was impossible for him to reach the passageway. If he could not get close to the passageway, he would not be able to enter the fifth floor. This meant that he would not be able to gain anything.
However, after heaving a sigh of relief, Lu An immediately took a deep breath. His gaze became even more profound. There was no trace of disappointment at all.
Lu An was indeed not disappointed. The current him had finally found a suitable place for cultivation.
That's right, this was the place!
In a normal natural environment, it was absolutely impossible to find an environment that could make a Level 9 Heavenly Master feel pressured. Perhaps this was also the reason why Level 9 Heavenly Masters were called the 'Celestial Realm'. It could be said that they had already surpassed the natural limits of the stars and were no longer limited by the natural forces. It was also because of this that without a strong environment, it meant that one could not use pressure to simulate life and death situations to cultivate.
However, at this moment, the majestic death energy around him was enough to make Lu An feel a fatal aura. Cultivating here was very likely to be very beneficial to the current Lu An.
Even if he could not increase his realm, Lu An believed that it would allow him to have a considerable increase in the use of the death energy!
