Traveling to Ancient Times: My Space Contains Weapons

Chapter 1220 Leading into the Maze to Find an Opportunity

"Haha, kid, you're in good shape. You survived a slash from me and can still move. Looks like you're not such a fool after all."

Even though the lights were off, Qiu Lu still chased after Chu Chen in the direction he had retreated.

The difference between Earth Saint and Human Saint is not merely a single major realm.

It's like comparing heaven and earth.

Before Chu Chen could retreat even half a meter, he felt the pain of the knife tip piercing his stomach.

Immediately, Qiu Lu's powerful force sent him flying, and he crashed heavily into the tunnel wall.

Despite having the super-strong protective suit that Roland had made for him, Chu Chen still felt as if his internal organs had shifted, causing him excruciating pain.

A sweet taste suddenly appeared in his throat, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Hmm, you have precious armor... Heh, even so, let's see how many blows you can withstand."

Before Chu Chen could react, he leaped forward and headed straight for Chu Chen.

But the next moment, he let out a puzzled "Huh?"

He saw that the direction he had heard so clearly was now empty; even his longsword was stuck in the soil.

Because the light source is off, the inside cannot be clearly seen with the naked eye.

After a moment of confusion, he called out to the people behind him, "Torch, come here!"

As the torches arrived, Qiu Lu was surprised to find that there was nothing there; Chu Chen was nowhere to be seen!

So he hurriedly said, "Scatter! Search for him! I don't believe this kid can just disappear into thin air."

In his haste, Chu Chen returned directly to Chu Tian Realm.

However, after staying in the Chu Tian Realm for less than half a minute, Chu Chen flashed back to his original spot.

There's no other way; we can't hide in Chu Tian Realm forever. Besides, while Qiu Lu seems powerful, he doesn't have an advantage in the dark tunnel.

If I were to expose my position, and if I were fast enough, I could rush out of the tunnel and head towards the maze I had dug within his reaction time.

So, Chu Chen suddenly appeared on the spot, wearing night vision goggles.

"You big idiot, I'm right here!"

Just as Qiu Lu was frantically searching for Chu Chen, he heard Chu Chen shouting at him from his left.

"Hmph, kid, you think you can teleport? Then I, Commander Qian, will show you what the speed of a Sacred Earth Saint is."

After saying that, he rushed towards Chu Chen.

But Chu Chen shouted as he rushed out of the tunnel.

"Hmph, kid, you think you can escape so easily!"

He quickly chased after Chu Chen in the direction he had fled.

However, as soon as Qiu Lu left, his group of subordinates were horrified to discover that many Devouring Beasts had rushed out of the darkness and attacked them.

A single Flerken isn't scary; what's scary is when they band together!

"Lord Commander... please save me..."

But Qiu Lu was so engrossed in the killing that he didn't care about the people behind him.

For him, failing to kill the mere Human Saint Realm expert Chu Chen after three consecutive attacks was already a great humiliation. If Chu Chen escaped again today, his status in the Yang family would probably plummet.

At that time, he might not even be able to keep his own commandery, let alone receive any rewards.

So he headed straight for Chu Chen, but the narrow passageway slowed him down considerably.

For a moment, they were unable to catch up with Chu Chen.

This made him even more furious: "Chu Chen, if you're so capable, then don't run away!"

"I'm not stupid. Why would I wait for you, you piece of trash, to kill me instead of running away?"

"Try calling me trash again."

"Heh, you good-for-nothing, a coward who can't even handle a woman. If you're so capable, why didn't you catch up with me?"

"I'm so angry... Chu Chen, today I, the commander, will skin you alive and tear your tendons apart!"

But the longer the chase went on, the angrier Qiu Lu became, because Chu Chen was like an eel, always half a step slower than him.

There are many underground tunnels in the mining area; as a high-ranking official, I've never been here before.

Therefore, Chu Chen, relying on his familiarity with the terrain, managed to leave Qiu Lu half a step behind. But even this mere half-step distance infuriated Qiu Lu.

The feeling was like punching cotton – you had the strength but nowhere to use it.

"Kid, if you've got the guts, stop for a second!"

"You idiot... Can't you say something nice, like calling me 'Daddy' or 'son'?"

"you wanna die!"

"Enough with the nonsense!"

Looking through the night vision goggles at the tunnel ahead, Chu Chen felt an indescribable discomfort.

At this moment, in order to avoid Qiu Lu behind him, he used almost all his strength to increase his speed.

After all, the difference in realm cannot be made up for by anything else.

To thoroughly enrage him, Chu Chen ran while throwing grenades behind him, but the two were too close, and the grenades all exploded behind Qiu Lu.

But this feeling made Qiu Lu extremely angry. Who the hell keeps setting off firecrackers behind your back? You can't stand it either.

Finally, Chu Chen looked at the tunnel with countless openings in front of him and a smile appeared on his face.

Indeed, after a long run, they had finally arrived at the small maze that Chu Chen had created earlier.

Once he enters this maze, Chu Chen is confident he can kill him.

First of all, even if he were a high-ranking commander or a master of earth sainthood, he couldn't cut through the soil underground like Chu Chen could cut tofu.

In this way, the maze would be completely effective against Qiu Lu.

Thinking of this, Chu Chen plunged into one of the holes, then stopped after turning around a few times.

However, as Qiu Lu chased after him, he discovered that the boy in front of him had disappeared.

He eagerly lit the torch in his hand and looked around. There was no sign of Chu Chen. All that remained was a narrow passageway, barely wide enough for one person to pass through, with openings and turns everywhere.

"Oh no, this kid is cheating."

Because the torches couldn't keep up with the speed of Chu Chen and Chu Chen, he had been closely following behind Chu Chen, completely unaware of where he was.

Realizing he might have been tricked, he immediately rushed back the way he came.

All of this filled him with a nameless fear.

But when he took a few steps back the way he came, seven or eight identical holes suddenly appeared in front of him.

Looking at the cave entrance before him, which he had no other choice about, his heart skipped a beat: "Kid, if you've got the guts, come out here. If you're a man, fight me face to face."

"Haha, you coward, come here!"
