Lu Chen's heart raced with urgency, yet he knew he had to restrain his actions from haste.
The alliance of leading sects from the Eastern Domain to trap and kill the outstanding disciples of the other four domains, clearly showed the degree of danger in this forbidden land.
"Haste does not bring success."
Lu Chen steadied his mind, which had been his greatest gain over more than three years on the Immortal Path.
As he steadily moved forward, he used the Hateful Heaven Pupil Technique once again, taking in the surrounding environment with his mind's eye.
"These mounds... they look so peculiar."
Lu Chen observed carefully, initially thinking that the shaking of the mounds was caused by the ground.
However, when he actually walked on the ground, he found it to be incredibly calm.
Then where did this shaking force come from?
Facing the unknown, Lu Chen became even more cautious, deciding to avoid these mounds as much as possible when moving forward.
