Lu Chen suddenly thought of Leng Yue, and a smile appeared on his lips, but he quickly suppressed it.
"There's not much time left in a month. We must hurry up and cultivate. Once we leave this Hidden Dragon Secret Realm, we won't have such a good opportunity again."
This time, Lu Chen finally got serious.
He suddenly realized that the cultivation method left at the first stone tablet did not require sitting still and practicing. In fact, the effect was better when practicing while moving.
So Lu Chen continued to walk forward as he cultivated, gradually losing track of time.
He entered a state of complete absorption.
Suddenly, a voice reached Lu Chen's ears. He slowly opened his eyes and saw Leng Yue standing in front of him. He immediately smiled.
"We meet again."
Leng Yue was slightly taken aback, and subconsciously asked, "Are you waiting for me here?"
In Leng Yue's opinion, Lu Chen was so strong that he had probably already reached the location of the second stone tablet. However, she did not expect to encounter Lu Chen on the way.
Lu Chen had been sitting here quietly, cultivating silently.
Leng Yue subconsciously assumed that Lu Chen must be waiting for her.
Lu Chen was certainly not foolish enough to expose this beautiful misunderstanding. He smiled and said, "Guess?"
Leng Yue immediately fell silent.
The two walked together, striding forward, their steps lighter than before.
Lu Chen could tell at a glance that Leng Yue's cultivation had greatly improved and she was much stronger than before.
This speed of progress earned Lu Chen's secret admiration.
Of course, Lu Chen's own strength improved rapidly, but Lu Chen never believed that it was the result of his own efforts.
"Unexpectedly, those people also comprehended it. It seems that those who can enter this Hidden Dragon Secret Realm are all somewhat confident, otherwise they would have withdrawn before this."
The host suddenly turned around and saw that there were quite a few people behind him, dragging their heavy steps as they approached.
It has been twenty days since we entered the Hidden Dragon Realm.
The Hidden Dragon Secret Realm only lasts for one month. The first stage has already taken so long. Lu Chen is worried that there will be even more severe tests later on, so he quickens his pace.
The closer they got to the second stone tablet, the stronger the oppressive force became. It took Lu Chen and his companion three whole days to reach the location of the second stone tablet.
This stone tablet is much larger than the first one, and it also has characters that emit a faint golden light.
Lu Chen and Leng Yue immediately examined the stone tablet carefully, trying to glean some cultivation technique from it, just like they had done with the first stone tablet. However, after trying, they found nothing.
After reaching the second stone tablet, Lu Chen and Leng Yue took a few steps forward and suddenly felt that the oppressive force that had been penetrating everywhere had vanished without a trace.
Lu Chen felt much more relaxed instantly, and it was no different from being outside. It seemed that the second stone tablet was a dividing line, and after passing the second stone tablet, this oppressive force no longer existed.
"The instructions say that each of us is required to hunt down three monsters and obtain their heads. It seems that the second test will be our individual combat skills."
Lu Chen remained quite calm, while Leng Yue was also extremely confident in her own strength.
However, this time Leng Yue decided to travel with Lu Chen.
In any case, each person only needs to hunt three monsters; it's not that they have to fight alone. Being together allows them to look out for each other.
Lu Chen did not refuse.
Following the direction indicated by the stone tablet, Lu Chen and Leng Yue walked for dozens of miles before discovering that it was no longer a desolate place, but rather a lush green area with extremely rich spiritual energy.
Moreover, Lu Chen quickly sensed the presence of a demonic beast not far ahead.
As expected, the second level of the Hidden Dragon Secret Realm was filled with many demonic beasts, which must have been captured by the senior experts of the Xuanwu Academy and thrown into the Hidden Dragon Secret Realm.
"Let's go and see what it is."
Without further hesitation, the two charged forward, their speed reaching its limit, many times faster than before entering the Hidden Dragon Secret Realm.
"The techniques of Xuanwu Academy are indeed powerful. I feel that my strength has improved a lot."
A hint of surprise appeared on Leng Yue's face.
Lu Chen nodded, acknowledging that even he himself had made significant progress.
At this moment, even without using the Blood Demon Escape technique, Lu Chen's speed was many times faster than before.
If one were to unleash the Blood Demon Escape, one could be further enhanced, reaching an extremely terrifying level.
Suddenly, a roar of a monstrous beast came from ahead.
A look of surprise appeared on Lu Chen and his companion's faces. They immediately rushed over and saw a massive demon king roaring at them from afar.
Clearly, this demon king had discovered the humans' presence long ago.
The demon race and the human race are sworn enemies; they fight to the death whenever they meet.
As expected, the demon king immediately charged towards Lu Chen and his companion.
This was an incredibly large wolf demon with snow-white fur, blood-red eyes, and an aura of extreme brutality.
"Should you go, or should I go?"
Lu Chen turned his head and glanced at Leng Yue beside him.
Seeing Leng Yue's eager expression, he couldn't help but laugh.
Leng Yue said shyly, "I'll go first. If I can't beat them, you can help me."
The two still dared not be careless towards the demon king of the Hidden Dragon Realm.
After all, this place is too strange. Who knows if these demon kings have cultivated any powerful supernatural abilities? They might be different from the demon beasts in other places.
