Seeing a teammate die.
This made the team tense up in an instant.
After all, anyone who gets chopped to death would be scared, and they're not powerful bigwigs.
Chu Tian looked at the sky thunder, the thought of leveling up again instantly spread in his heart like wild grass. With a stretch of his hand, a toothpick-like golden cudgel appeared in his hand. With a thought, the golden cudgel began to rapidly extend, reaching into the sky.
Seeing Chu Tian's action, the fellow mercenaries were very puzzled.
At this moment, Chu Tian spoke up: "You guys hurry through this area, I will divert the sky thunder here."
Seeing the confident look on Chu Tian's face, Muketuo hesitated for a moment and then nodded. However, Amina and Sado were the first to lead the way.
Just then, a sky thunder roared down, accurately striking the golden cudgel in Chu Tian's hand, which had extended dozens of meters.
The lightning strike startled everyone. They never expected someone to directly withstand a sky thunder.
When the sky thunder struck, those who were ready to quickly flee the area stopped and turned back, only to see the lightning travel down the nearly fifty meters long golden cudgel, directly hitting Chu Tian.
Chu Tian could clearly feel the power of the Hell's Gate sky thunder was stronger than outside. The Emperor Bone Sword Scripture operated, and as the lightning entered his body, every bone in his body was continuously struck and tormented by the lightning.
However, this time, Chu Tian did not cry out. Instead, he gritted his teeth and endured the pain of the lightning continuously tormenting his body.
Those standing at a distance saw this scene and realized that the employer was blocking the sky thunder for them, as more and more lightning gathered in the sky and struck the elongated golden cudgel in Chu Tian's hand.
In just a minute, Chu Tian experienced fifteen sky thunders. With the operation of the Emperor Bone Sword Scripture, he clearly saw his sixty-first Emperor Bone about to form. This made Chu Tian overjoyed. He wanted to transform into a dragon form but didn't want to expose himself under everyone's watch, so he began to try running the Emperor Bone Sword Scripture and the Unique Sovereign Skill of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths together.
On his first attempt, Chu Tian immediately felt the spiritual energy in his body become somewhat uncontrollable. Under a new lightning strike, he staggered and almost fell to the ground.
However, after dozens of attempts and enduring more than a dozen sky thunders, Chu Tian finally managed to simultaneously operate two different techniques.
The two different techniques working together in his body caused his meridians to become uncontrollable, rupturing the meridians in his body. However, with the strong regenerative ability, Chu Tian fortuitously used the conflict between the two techniques to strengthen his meridians.
"This employer, I suspect, must be using some special talent or martial skill to hide his talent level. He should be an S+ level talent martial artist," Sado whispered in Amina's ear.
"I'm starting to have the same suspicion," Amina said, now also beginning to doubt.
Even the usually steady Muketuo was doubtful. His employer, known as Lu Ren, was definitely a strong talent martial artist; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to single-handedly kill an S-class beast, the Four-armed Snow Beast.
Instantly, several more sky thunders fell, and Chu Tian's sixty-first Emperor Bone began to condense, gradually forming a golden Emperor Bone under the lightning. The sixty-second Emperor Bone also began to form.
This pain made Chu Tian, even with gritted teeth, barely able to endure it, and he couldn't help but let out a muffled grunt. Cold sweat began to trickle down his forehead.
Looking at Muketuo and the others, knowing that they were watching him absorb all the power of the sky thunder as if watching a drama, Chu Tian prepared to break through his level. Naturally, he didn't want others to spy on him, so he loudly said, "You guys leave quickly. The power of the sky thunder is getting stronger. I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on if you don't leave."
Hearing Chu Tian's words, Muketuo also understood that Chu Tian was blocking the sky thunder for them and naturally couldn't stay long. He quickly said, "There's a safe area of about five hundred square meters fifteen kilometers to the southwest. We'll wait for you there. Come quickly after we've escaped."
Pretending to struggle against the thunder, Chu Tian nodded with gritted teeth and even gave Muketuo an OK gesture.
Muketuo didn't linger and quickly led everyone southwest.
Seeing everyone leave, Chu Tian took a deep breath and, under another thunder strike, took out a spiritual energy crystal and began to absorb it frantically.
Chu Tian was still running two different
