Chapter 4639
The crowd outside had dispersed. This time, the attack on Zi Chen had ended in failure, and all the forces had suffered great losses.
As for Zi Chen, his whereabouts were unknown.
Those big birds didn't chase after him, but they didn't dare to stay here any longer and left one after another.
The others were still watching, because Zi Chen hadn't appeared yet.
Zi Chen's friends were all sitting there, from the initial nervousness and panic to the final calm.
Those core members had also seen the scene of Zi Chen being brought underground. It was reasonable to say that the possibility of Zi Chen being alive was very small, but for some reason, after the previous panic, Zi Chen's friends calmed down.
This made them wonder, did Zi Chen have a backup plan?
Along the way, Zi Chen returned. The corpses on the ground had disappeared, and the insects had once again burrowed into the ground. Along the way, except for a mess, there were no traces of battle.
Even the bloodstains were gone.
Those big birds had returned to their original state, but their numbers had decreased a lot. It was unknown whether they had died in battle or were healing in their own spaces.
Mei Ji had already made it clear before that those who came in had retreated. Zi Chen walked all the way out.
When he came to the exit, he saw his friends not far away, but it was a little different from what he had expected. His friends weren't nervous or panicked, but were all very calm, and even chatting and laughing.
Seeing Zi Chen appear, everyone's eyes fell on him. Some were surprised, and some were really happy.
"You know I'm still alive?"
Zi Chen asked in surprise. He didn't even know whether he was alive or not, so how could these people know?
It was obviously impossible to say that they were all heartless.
"Before you entered the ground, I saw a tail of light following you."
Su Mengyao explained. The others didn't see it, only Su Mengyao saw it, and she even saw that it was a little bird.
Its speed was extremely fast, like a bolt of lightning.
This was also the reason why everyone was so calm. Su Mengyao had a great perception of life and death. Even if it was only a ray of light, she could still deduce some unusual things.
Zi Chen nodded and walked forward. He didn't chat with his friends. Instead, he went to find the core members.
Lei Lan was also among them, but she was still not a core member.
Zi Chen thanked everyone. Earlier, when they went in, it was obvious that they wanted to help.
"You can obtain some crystals nearby, but try not to go too far."
Zi Chen reminded him, "I've found a way to enter the next place, but it will take some time before I can enter.
Before that, all of you should increase your strength and try to awaken your abilities. "
The eyes of the core disciples lit up. They hadn't expected to reap such an unexpected reward.
They nodded and then left.
The other people in the distance had already dispersed. He believed that the people who had ambushed Zi Chen would soon know that Zi Chen was still alive.
They would probably feel uneasy after this.
Zi Chen walked back and hugged everyone.
After not seeing each other for so many years, he missed them.
There were quite a lot of people, but not everyone was here.
Zi Chen asked about everyone's situation and then told them what had happened underground. Everyone listened quietly.
Then, Zi Chen took out the crystal and said, "This is the crystal of the Insect King. After refining it, you should have great abilities."
Monk's eyes lit up. He slapped his thigh and said, "Don't you think it's a coincidence? Recently, I was worried about not having the ability, but now it's here.
Zi Chen, I really have to thank you this time. But you're my brother, so thanks are superfluous. I won't stand on ceremony. "
As he spoke, Monk had already stretched out his hand without holding back.
The others didn't seem surprised. This was Monk's usual style and had not changed for many years.
Monk never felt ashamed of this. Instead, he felt proud of it.
Zi Chen said with a smile that was not a smile, "It might be poisonous. Are you sure you want it?"
"Buddha said, if I don't enter hell, who will? I'm not afraid of poison. Facing difficulties is my style," Monk said righteously.
"You really haven't changed your nature."
Zi Chen was amused, "Others can do it, but not you. It's useless to you.
Moreover, you're a disciple of Buddhism. How can you explain yourself with poison? "
Monk muttered, "It doesn't matter if it's useless now. I can save it for when I need it, can't I?"
Zi Chen couldn't be bothered with him. Zi Chen had seen this guy's greed many times. If he didn't pick up a few things when he went out, even if he lost something, it would be a huge loss.
"Have you guys awakened any abilities?" Zi Chen looked at the others.
"I've awakened my sword intent."
A sharp sword intent appeared on Wang Xian 'er's fingertips.
This indirectly confirmed Zi Chen's guess. While Zi Chen was happy for Wang Xian 'er, he made up his mind to take the same path.
"I haven't, but my strength seems to have increased a lot."
Devil Ape touched its head, "I don't like the abilities here, so my current combat power is still very weak."
"I've awakened my wind ability," Hei Feng said. There was actually another awakened one.
You Ming shook his head, indicating that he hadn't.
Lin Xue and the rest hadn't awakened their abilities either.
"My ability has just awakened. I'm good at hiding, but it's not stable," Zhang Haotian said. He was the third awakened one.
If the others knew that there were three people in Zi Chen's team who had awakened their abilities naturally, what would their expressions be like?
Zi Chen thought for a while, then passed the crystal to Zhang Haotian, "I think you're more suitable."
"Me?" Zhang Haotian was slightly stunned.
"If there's really a poisonous ability, then with you, who's good at assassination, our combat power will increase."
Zi Chen said, "Maybe there's someone more suitable, but they're not in our team. So, you're the best choice."
Zi Chen placed the crystal in Zhang Haotian's hand, "Hurry up and refine it. The area we're heading to will be very dangerous. With more power, we'll have more power to protect ourselves."
"You mean inside?" Devil Ape asked, "We're still going in?"
"No, it's a place where danger and opportunity coexist. The invisible Saint Venerables and those Half-Step Saint Venerables might be in that place."
Zi Chen briefly explained the Letian Kingdom. After all, he didn't know much about it.
Now that the crystal had an owner, Monk didn't think about it anymore. After hearing Monk's explanation, he said, "What do you plan to do next?
Are you going to find those people and kill them one by one?
It's not our style to not fight back after being bullied. "
"There's no hurry. Let's increase our strength first."
Zi Chen said, "This is our top priority now. If we go after others now, we'll only be wasting our time."
