Death… And Me Chapter 2695 Not There Yet

Chapter 2695  Not There Yet

It goes without saying that the twins' group weren't the only ones to try to open a pa.s.sage through the walls by using brute force. Pretty much all groups tried the same thing, only to find out that their best efforts ended up doing nothing more than a few scratches on said walls. It was simply not worth trying to break the walls to get through, let alone the ceiling.

Yet, Sansara could clearly tell that that hole in the wall was opened recently. How did someone manage to do it? He didn't know. However, with five of the initial ten Wonder Beasts pursuing him close by, he needed something to help him deal with the situation. Thus, he didn't think twice before pa.s.sing through the hole and following the path of whoever opened it.

Back on the twins' group side, they had just arrived on the Second Floor. "Hum? The Chaos Laws and Energy here are slightly better than the first floor," Rean commented after feeling the surroundings. Luan quickly confirmed. "Yes, Uncle Rean. The Elements on this floor are also slightly better behaved. It doesn't change my range of view, but it makes it easier to discern things through my eyes."

Everyone agreed with him, being able to see what Luan was seeing through his Divine Sense. One must not be mistaken, though. It didn't mean the others were seeing through Luan's eyes. Instead, he was simply sharing exactly what he was seeing through Divine Sense. The results were the same, but there was a slight delay for the others.

"So, where to?" Celis asked.

Luan looked around and quickly drew the surroundings into the Jade Slips Rean gave him. They discussed for a short while and decided on a path. There didn't seem to be anything in Luan's view other than empty rooms and corridors. Yet, one of the corridors seemed to proceed much further than the others, so they simply selected that one.

Of course, they didn't have access to it straight away. Rean and Roan understood what they needed to do and began to work. Their hairs continued with their white and dark color as they opened another hole in the wall. They crossed an empty room and spent a few more minutes on the next wall again. That happened two more times until they were finally inside the corridor they had previously agreed.

Relying on Luan's eyes, they shot through the corridor at full speed, trying to save time. Of course, it didn't continue for long. Luan noticed another one of those Wonder Beasts, and the group had to stop before they caught its attention. Rean and Roan turned to the side and intended to open another pa.s.sage on the wall to avoid that Wonder Beast.

"Not good!" Yet, Luan was taken aback. "It's coming in our direction!"

Kafan narrowed his eyes. "Weird, we are quite far away from it, so how did it notice our presence?" He asked, seeing a little later the same thing in Luan's Divine Sense images.

It was moving quite fast, which would make it hard to flee. They thought for a second if they should engage it too. It was only one, and they wanted to try this Tower's Wonder Beasts as well. It was better to get an idea of their strength before they continued even further since it didn't seem to be avoidable at the moment.

Luan nodded and stepped back, checking the surroundings to see if there wasn't anything else. Yet, his expression turned even darker straight away. "Errr... I think I found the reason this Wonder Beast is coming in our direction." As he said that, he also shared the view of his Sacred Eyes.

Coming from behind, there were another five agglomerations of Chaotic Elements, just like the one caused by the Wonder Beast coming from the opposite direction. Yet, the thing that caught their attention was obviously the humanoid shape of Dark Element running away from the Five Wonder Beasts. "It's a Devil... and it is coming straight for us..." Kafan commented with a sigh. Even though he was seeing through the images of Luan's Sacred Eyes, he would never mistake a Devil's Dark Element.

Rean slapped his face. "Right! The holes we left behind! We led this guy straight to us, and he is obviously trying to use us to help deal with the Wonder Beasts."

Roan already had his White Star Scythe on his hand. "So what? We don't have time to find another path. We will need to deal with it." Without waiting for anyone's answer, he stepped several tens of meters forward. "I'll take care of the Wonder Beast from the other side. You guys help the idiot coming from behind. It is still a chance to test these Wonder Beasts."

Rean and the others quickly nodded. Luan, on the other hand, was sent straight into the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. 'Everyone, be careful. As I said, these Wonder Beasts seemed to be much stronger than the ones from outside.'

The first Wonder Beast to appear was the one coming from Roan's direction. Immediately, Roan was able to feel with his Chaos Cultivation that this Wonder Beast was no joke. The amount of Chaos Elements and Energy inside that one far surpa.s.sed the beasts outside. Yet, he kept his cold face as he pounced. 'Death Style, Shadow Steps!'

His body vanished in the shadows, appearing in front of the Wonder Beast in a second!

'Death Style, Three Claws of the Dragon!'

His Scythe separated into three, slashing the ethereal body of the Wonder Beasts from three different points. 'Death Style, Three Claws of the Dragon!'

'Death Style, Three Claws of the Dragon!'

He didn't even wait for the first strike to come down. He immediately executed the same attack another two times, creating many Scythes that converged on the Wonder Beast's body. Only the very last one was real.

*swish, swish, swish, swish...*

The attacks landed, and the Wonder Beasts didn't try to avoid them. Yet, they did not cut through like it happened with the Wonder Beasts from outside. Instead, Roan's attacks seemed to fall into a sea of Chaos Laws and Energy, losing their own properties and dissipating into the chaotic nature of the Wonder Beast's body.

The Wonder Beasts didn't stop for a single second while that happened. It immediately shot in Roan's direction, trying to touch his body.

'It's definitely much stronger than the ones outside,' Roan thought for a moment as his Chaos Cultivation and skills activated. He once again vanished into the shadows before reappearing behind the Wonder Beast. 'But with the Chaos Cultivation acquired from the Purple Crystal, it is still not there yet.'
