Chapter 72

Under the full-force attack of the mid-stage Battle Master, Lu Tianyu had already suffered severe internal injuries. Not only were two of his ribs broken, but his internal organs had also shifted out of place.

If it weren't for the fact that Lu Tianyu practiced the "Pangu Heavenly Book," which simultaneously cultivated both qi and the body, making his physical strength much stronger than that of an ordinary person, any other person would have been far more than just broken ribs after being hit by a full-force attack from a peer, and would certainly have died without any chance of survival.

"Ah!" Unable to resist, Lu Tianyu spat out a mouthful of fresh blood and finally struggled to get up from the ground, his body trembling violently before he finally managed to stand steady.

"That boy is already seriously injured and has no strength to resist. Quick, everyone, attack together and kill him!" Seeing the situation, Wang Aotian immediately shouted frantically.

"Whoosh, whoosh!" The three accomplices, upon hearing this, moved their bodies in unison and rushed madly towards Lu Tianyu.

In their eyes, Lu Tianyu was no longer a person but an exceptionally generous reward from the Wang family. As long as they killed him, they could go to the Wang family to claim it.

Heavy rewards always attract brave men. Now, these three, for the sake of the reward, had their eyes bloodshot, their speed reaching its peak, and they almost instantly arrived in front of Lu Tianyu.

"Whoosh!" Seeing the situation, Lu Tianyu immediately raised his right hand without hesitation, pouring the remaining three-tenths of energy in his dantian into his right arm, causing the entire right arm to instantly bend into an axe shape, and a dazzling yellow battle aura suddenly burst forth.

As the yellow battle aura spread, it was accompanied by an extremely powerful energy pressure, which fiercely attacked the three.

The three were still rushing forward at high speed, their bodies not yet stabilized. When hit by this pressure, their bodies violently shook, almost unable to resist falling to the ground. They all turned pale with fear, their eyes revealing an intense fear.

The three immediately stopped their forward momentum, no longer daring to act rashly. The shocking slash from Lu Tianyu earlier had almost killed Wang Aotian, and this terrifying strength had deeply etched itself into their minds, becoming a shadow that lingered for a long time. They did not want to follow in Wang Aotian's footsteps.

They stood there, trembling with fear, staring intently at Lu Tianyu, ready to join forces to meet his shocking attack.

"Whoosh!" Unexpectedly, at this moment, something happened that no one had anticipated. Lu Tianyu suddenly turned around and fled madly towards the forest behind him.

"Damn, this kid is so cunning, quick, chase him!" The three were stunned, and when they came to their senses, one of them cursed frantically, rushing after the fleeing Lu Tianyu in a fit of rage.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!" As Lu Tianyu fled into the forest entrance, the four figures behind him also rushed into the vast forest.

Earlier, Lu Tianyu had only been putting on a show. He really didn't dare to use that last attack. If he did, it would deplete all the battle aura in his dantian. Even if he could kill one person by chance, he would be chopped into pieces by the other three afterward.

Lu Tianyu was different from them. If they died, they would only lose one level of cultivation, but if Lu Tianyu died, he would truly be dead and his soul would be gone. Therefore, he couldn't take this risk.

The reason he pretended to use the final attack was to confuse the three. Once they were fully prepared to face the attack, he would immediately choose to flee without hesitation.

While the three were stunned, Lu Tianyu had already taken the opportunity to escape into the forest.

Everything was as he had anticipated.

Although there were many powerful beasts in the forest, it was the only way for Lu Tianyu to survive. Perhaps, he could use the beasts to defeat and eliminate Wang Aotian and his three accomplices one by one.

"Whoosh, whoosh" After entering the forest, Lu Tianyu immediately transferred the remaining three-tenths of battle aura from his right arm to his feet.

It was as if he was stepping on two yellow halos, and Lu Tianyu's feet did not touch the ground as he fled madly through the forest.

This could be said to be another desperate escape after the last one from the Lu family.

Being weaker than others was truly frustrating.

As Lu Tianyu fled madly, he secretly vowed that if he managed to escape and survive today, he would definitely practice hard in the future to quickly improve his strength.

The route Lu Tianyu took to escape was the same one he had taken to leave the forest earlier. Along the way, there were still many traces of the blood of the beasts he had killed, and a faint bloody smell still lingered in the air.

"Speed up, we must not let that kid escape." Behind him, Wang Aotian's angry shouts continued to come.

Lu Tianyu's eyes had turned blood red, and his hatred for the Wang family grew with each step he took.

The Wang family was truly despicable. Even when he came to the Flowing Cloud Sect, he was still subjected to their plots and schemes, and they used every despicable and shameless means possible.

"If one day I, Lu Tianyu, have enough strength, I will definitely wash the Wang family in blood and make sure every member of the Wang family dies!" Lu Tianyu gritted his teeth and made a venomous vow in his heart.

He knew that he and the Wang family were now like water and fire, unable to coexist. As long as the Wang family existed, he, Lu Tianyu, would never have peace. Only by completely eradicating the Wang family could he eliminate this major threat.

But all of this was based on strength. Without strength, it was just empty talk. At this moment, Lu Tianyu's desire for strength became even stronger.

Moreover, he must first find a way to survive today's killing. If he unfortunately died here, everything would become a dream.

"Whoosh!" In a moment, Lu Tianyu changed his escape route and hid behind a large, lush tree on the right.

When he had left the forest earlier, Lu Tianyu had encountered a beast that had run out from behind that tree. After killing the large beast, he had also checked behind the tree and discovered a deep cave. The beast he had killed had emerged from the cave behind the tree.

The cave was bottomless, and the bottom was pitch black, constantly emitting thick black fog. It was unknown whether there were any unknown dangers inside, but Lu Tianyu couldn't afford to be so cautious at this moment. Upon reaching the entrance of the cave, he immediately jumped down without hesitation.

"Whoosh, whoosh" The fierce cold wind whistled in his ears, and his vision was completely shrouded in thick black fog. Even with the battle aura infused in his eyes, Lu Tianyu could hardly see the situation at the bottom of the cave.

"Thud!" After about three minutes, the rapidly falling Lu Tianyu finally reached the ground at the bottom of the cave, standing steadily in place. Looking around, he was greatly surprised to see a long, dark tunnel in front of him, leading to an unknown destination.

"Who would have thought that there would be another world inside this cave, but I wonder where this cave leads to?" Muttering to himself, Lu Tianyu immediately moved without hesitation and quickly ran towards the end of the tunnel.

Although there were unknown dangers ahead, Lu Tianyu couldn't afford to be so cautious. He just wanted to hide as deep as possible to avoid being detected by Wang Aotian and his group using their divine sense.

If he was far enough away from them, even with Wang Aotian's group using their divine sense to the fullest, they would not be able to detect him.

"Whoosh, whoosh..." Just as Lu Tianyu entered the long, dark tunnel inside the cave, Wang Aotian and his group of four arrived at the large tree.

"Master Wang, it's strange, the boy's residual aura in the air suddenly became weak. Did he change his escape route?" The late-stage Battle Master youth immediately stopped his forward momentum and looked at Wang Aotian with confusion.

They had been tracking Lu Tianyu based on the faint aura he left in the air, but here they sensed something unusual. Lu Tianyu's aura had suddenly weakened significantly.

"Master Wang, look, there are still large patches of blood ahead." At this moment, another young man shouted loudly, pointing to a patch of tall grass.

On the waist-high grass, there were countless spots of fresh blood, and a faint bloody smell still lingered in the air. In the grass, a severed beast corpse could be faintly seen lying there.

The beast was the one Lu Tianyu had killed earlier.

"Judging from the wounds on the beast, it was definitely killed by that boy. Let's continue to chase forward!" After a moment's thought, Wang Aotian immediately shouted, leading the three to continue their mad pursuit.

This was due to their eagerness to chase Lu Tianyu, which led to a misjudgment. If they had observed more carefully, they would have noticed that the blood on the grass had already turned slightly purple, indicating that the beast had been dead for a long time and was not killed by Lu Tianyu at that moment. This would have allowed them to deduce that Lu Tianyu had not fled forward.

If the four of them had dispersed and searched the area using their divine sense, they would have quickly found Lu Tianyu in the cave and killed him.

But, as fate would have it, they narrowly missed Lu Tianyu.

Now, Lu Tianyu, with a nervous and uneasy heart, cautiously and carefully ran towards the end of the tunnel.

The tunnel was still filled with thick black fog, and a faint, fishy smell could be detected. Lu Tianyu frowned at the smell and became even more cautious.

After about fifteen minutes, Lu Tianyu finally reached the end of the tunnel and slowly walked out from the corner.

Seeing the situation in front of him, Lu Tianyu's pupils suddenly contracted, and his mouth gaped open in shock, unable to close for a long time.
