Chapter 1527 - 1507: Chu Tian and Chi Long Enter the Underground Tunnel

Xing Zhe always felt that Yang Xiao was hiding something from him.

However, the two had gone through life and death in the underground tunnels, so they trusted each other deeply. Xing Zhe didn't think much of it.

Yang Xiao spent three days in the academy library, learning some academy cultivation techniques, and supplementing his cultivation knowledge.

Three days later, in Xing Zhe's villa.

"Yang Xiao, didn't you schedule a duel with Chi Long at the ruins of the 101 Cultivation Field on Wuji Island?"

"Hmm?"

"I get the feeling you might have forgotten about it, with no preparations made. Are you still going today?"

"Of course I'm going. The most important thing as a person is integrity. Do I look like someone who doesn't keep their promises?"

Yang Xiao stretched lazily and practiced a set of Shaolin Boxing in the villa courtyard to loosen his muscles.

Xing Zhe asked puzzledly:

"We haven't had breakfast yet! Do you want some?"

"Of course, without breakfast, where will I find the strength to fight later?"

The two of them made breakfast inside the villa.

After breakfast, Yang Xiao casually picked up a book and began reading, looking engrossed.

Xing Zhe asked:

"Yang Xiao, it seems like you haven't prepared anything. Are you serious?"

Without lifting his head, Yang Xiao answered:

"What are you worried about? It's still early, and I arranged to duel Chi Long at the ruins of Cultivation Field 101 at noon. We'll go after lunch, it's not too late."

"..."

Xing Zhe had no words.

Nevertheless, since Yang Xiao was so calm, he must be confident.

After spending time with Yang Xiao, Xing Zhe gained more understanding of him.

Yang Xiao was unhurried, so Xing Zhe decided not to rush either.

They read books, chatted, and discussed cultivation experiences in the villa until noon. Yang Xiao suggested heading to the academy cafeteria for lunch.

After lunch, it was already around 1 PM.

Yang Xiao purchased a large quantity of various meats and dry food from the academy cafeteria and stored them in his Space Ring.

Xing Zhe asked more curiously:

"Yang Xiao, what are you planning to do?"

"Don't ask, you should buy more food too, prepare for a month."

"What?"

"Stop dithering, hurry up."

Following Yang Xiao's instructions, Xing Zhe similarly bought a large amount of meat and dry food.

Yang Xiao particularly bought a quantity of seasonings from the academy cafeteria's small shop, then said contentedly:

"Let's go!"

"Where to?"

"To the ruins of Cultivation Field 101, didn't you keep mentioning wanting to go there these past days?"

"Oh!"

Xing Zhe replied, saying:

"Will Chi Long and Chu Tian still be waiting for you there?"

"You'll know once we get there."

They left the academy gate and took to the sky, soon arriving near Cultivation Field 101.

When they were several kilometers away from Cultivation Field 101, Yang Xiao pulled Xing Zhe into the forest below.

"Yang Xiao, what exactly are you up to?"

"Shh, keep your voice down. I don't know if it'll succeed, just depends on luck."

...

Chu Tian and Chi Long, along with a dozen small followers, had left the academy early in the morning, arriving at the ruins of Cultivation Field 101.

Once the group arrived, they discovered a huge hole at the original site of the ruins of Cultivation Field 101.

Chu Tian and Chi Long stood by the edge of the huge pit, feeling a bit amazed.

"Whoa, what's the deal with this giant pit?"

"Did Yang Xiao and Xing Zhe escape from this hole?"

"This hole is so big, how did Yang Xiao and Xing Zhe manage this? It doesn't make sense, did they need to dig such a large hole to escape?"

...

Standing in front of the massive crater, everyone started to discuss.

Chu Tian had a thought and said to Chi Long:

"Chi Long, I've noticed something quite strange."

"What?"

"I feel that Xing Zhe's Genetic Evolution Level seems to have increased a lot. I'm very familiar with him and can sense the strength of his aura just by standing three meters away.

Compared to before, Xing Zhe's aura intensified quite a bit,

and with Yang Xiao, I've battled him before, even previously, when I interacted with him, I felt the same."

"What are you trying to say?"

"I've been wondering how the two survived in the underground pit for five months. Did you see how well-fed they look?

They don't resemble people who've suffered hunger?

There has long been a legend that the tunnels of Cultivation Field 101 hold secrets, containing a mysterious cultivation site filled with powerful Evolution Energy. Could it be,"

"Could it be that misfortune turned to fortune for them, and they found that mysterious cultivation site in the underground tunnel? Is that what you mean?"

Chu Tian nodded.

"Since we're here and it's still early, why not go down this pit and check out how Yang Xiao and Xing Zhe survived."

Chi Long nodded and said:

"Alright, it's still early, we might as well go down and take a look, then come back to set up a trap later."

The group reached a consensus, and Chu Tian and Chi Long took five followers along down the pit, while leaving eight followers to guard above.

Chu Tian, Chi Long, and the others descended into the pit, shining flashlights around.

"Chi Long, I think there's something off."

"What's off?"

"This pit is ten meters long, five to six meters wide, and from the surface to here, it's at least several hundred meters. How did Yang Xiao and Xing Zhe dig such a tunnel?"

Chi Long also frowned slightly and nodded,

"I also feel something's strange, and after observing, the pit's shape is very regular, almost uniformly thick from top to bottom.

If it were dug by Yang Xiao and Xing Zhe, it couldn't possibly be this regular,

also, where did the rubble go that was dug out?"

While Chu Tian and Chi Long discussed, the five followers who came down with them held flashlights searching around.

"Wow, there's another underground tunnel here, wonder where it leads?"

"Did you notice, the Evolution Energy in this pit is very dense, at least the concentration of a Level Nine Cultivation Field."

"I think the Evolution Energy here is even stronger than a Level Nine Cultivation Field."

All five people immediately sat down and began using the Wuji Academy's Evolution Technique to absorb the pit's Evolution Energy.

Chu Tian and Chi Long listened too and immediately activated the Evolution Technique, instantly feeling a powerful Evolution Energy.

Chu Tian exclaimed with delight:

"The rumors about Cultivation Field 101 are true. My guess was right, Yang Xiao and Xing Zhe found the legendary cultivation site in the underground tunnel, cultivated for over five months, greatly enhancing their Genetic Evolution Level,

no wonder I sensed the strong aura emanating from Xing Zhe."

Everyone was thrilled with the discovery of Evolution Energy in the underground tunnel.

A follower ran over to Chu Tian and said:

"Boss, why not have the brothers from above come down and enjoy it too, absorb some Evolution Energy now that there's still time."

Chu Tian hesitated a moment, then nodded and said:

"Okay, go call the brothers down, but be careful."

The eight followers on the surface, hearing about the strong Evolution Energy below, excitedly jumped down as well.

Chu Tian addressed the group:

"You eight will stay here, absorb the Evolution Energy and remain vigilant, the rest will follow Chi Long and me along the tunnel."
