After killing the woman, Li Chenqiu wiped his blood-stained hands on her clothes. Hearing the chaotic footsteps from the stairwell, he strode over.

Inside the narrow stairwell, Resurrected individuals surged towards the sixth floor like a swarm of bees.

They were covered in blood, chewing on raw meat that hadn't been swallowed, their eyes filled with greed and bloodlust.

"Just one more floor, I'm sure I can break through the second seal if I eat a few more!"

"Hey, stop pushing, what's the rush!"

"How else am I going to get to the pretty ones if I don't hurry!"

The young Resurrected at the front bared his teeth, fresh blood slowly oozing from between them. Just as he was about to reach the stairwell exit, a young man emerged from the corner – Li Chenqiu.

"Hahaha!" The young Resurrected grinned wildly, tilting his head as he tried to bite Li Chenqiu's neck.

"Too slow." Li Chenqiu raised his arm and swatted at the Resurrected's head like a fly.

Bang!

The next second, the opponent's head exploded like a watermelon, the sticky, unidentifiable liquid splattering the white walls.

The sudden change stunned the Resurrected behind him. He grabbed the stairwell railing in terror, trying to retreat, but the others behind him didn't give him a chance, forcing him in front of Li Chenqiu.

"I'm a goo..."

Bang!

His head exploded again.

Li Chenqiu shook the blood off his hands and walked downstairs step by step. The Resurrected who stood in his way met the same fate as the previous ones as soon as they realized something was wrong.

After killing seven or eight Resurrected in a row, the others finally realized something was wrong and shouted to the back.

"Retreat, everyone retreat!!!"

"There's someone suspected to be at the third seal!"

"Damn it, retreat! Don't squeeze if you don't want to die!"

With these shouts, the crazed Resurrected finally regained their senses and retreated to the fifth-floor corridor, staring at the stairwell in fear.

Tap, tap, tap...

Li Chenqiu slowly appeared before everyone, stepping on the blood-soaked floor.

"Isn't that... the A-grade ability user, the Chosen One, Li Chenqiu?"

"Why is he here?"

Li Chenqiu ignored everyone's questions, his sharp eyes scanning past them to the end of the corridor.

At the end of the corridor, Xu Yuan happened to be walking out of a room, the corners of his mouth still stained with blood that hadn't been wiped clean.

As if sensing something in the dark, Xu Yuan also turned his head at that moment, his gaze fixed on Li Chenqiu.

Their eyes met in the air.

"Interesting."

Xu Yuan's eyes surged with killing intent as he pushed aside the Resurrected in front of him and walked towards Li Chenqiu.

Li Chenqiu smiled slightly, a ripple appearing in his usually calm eyes, as if a flame was flickering beneath the surface of the water.

He was curious and excited about a Resurrected who could make him feel threatened. Although this wasn't the final battlefield he had set, it wouldn't hurt to test the waters.

Thinking of this, Li Chenqiu moved his feet, and his whole body shot out like an arrow, killing the Resurrected in the corridor.

"Everyone, don't be afraid, let's all..."

Bang!

Li Chenqiu's roundhouse kick directly exploded the opponent's head.

The other Resurrected were stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted and swarmed towards Li Chenqiu.

However, most of them were only at the first seal, with only a few at the second seal, the gap between them and Li Chenqiu was too great.

Li Chenqiu was like a wolf among sheep, reaping everyone's lives with ease, as if he was in no man's land.

But the easy slaughter didn't bring a trace of joy to Li Chenqiu's eyes, instead, his doubts grew stronger.

When he went to the palace in his dream last night, the coloring of the second mural was almost 70% complete. Logically speaking, with so many Resurrected killed now, the third ability should have awakened, but why couldn't he feel anything?

But before Li Chenqiu could think deeply, a chill rose from his back.

At the critical moment, Li Chenqiu gathered all the strength in his body to his calf, retreating to the side with a backward step.

Bang!

The hard concrete floor was directly smashed through, and the terrifying shockwave sent the surrounding Resurrected flying. Small, dense pebbles shot out in all directions like bullets, causing patches of blood to bloom.

In the hazy dust, Xu Yuan retracted his fist, looking at Li Chenqiu like a wild wolf: "Not bad, a third seal actually dodged my punch."

"You're not bad either, you made me retreat."

Li Chenqiu said with a smile, but his eyes were full of vigilance.

His strength was at the third seal approaching the fourth, while the man in front of him was a solid fourth seal, and not a weak one among the fourth seals.

"Heh heh!" Xu Yuan chuckled in a low, sinister voice, suddenly his figure flashed, tearing through the air as he punched fiercely at Li Chenqiu, the terrifying power creating a piercing sonic boom in the air.

Faced with such an attack, Li Chenqiu turned his toes, facing his back to the end of the corridor, his arms casually guarding his front.

The moment the two collided, Li Chenqiu kicked his feet backward, unloading the force while using the opponent's power to fly backward.

"Not good!" Xu Yuan instantly realized something was wrong, but by the time he wanted to reach out to grab him, it was too late.

"Jump!"

Seeing that he was about to crash through the corridor's glass window, Li Chenqiu shouted loudly upstairs.

Crack!

Broken pieces of glass splashed outwards, like exploding bubbles, shimmering with beautiful, glazed colors in the setting sun.

At the same time, Li Qingxia, who had been squatting on the sixth floor, gritted her teeth and jumped down, landing right on Li Chenqiu's back.

The figures of the two were like a graceful curve, crashing straight down on the roof of a small car.

"Scared me to death, phew~" Li Qingxia patted her little heart in fear.

"It's not over yet, hold on tight." Li Chenqiu looked calmly ahead.

There, stood a man and a woman, staring at Li Chenqiu with cold eyes.

"Also top-tier third seals?" There was a hint of a smile on Li Chenqiu's lips.

He roughly understood the strength of the two through his own sixth sense. They weren't too different from him, about equal in strength.

At this moment, Xu Yuan walked to the window on the fifth floor, looking at Li Chenqiu with fierce eyes: "Li Chenqiu, why are you here?"

"Heh heh." Li Chenqiu chuckled lightly: "Do you really think the Security Bureau is completely unaware?"

The moment the words fell, Li Chenqiu used Absolute Control to concentrate all the strength in his body in his legs, darting out like a cheetah, directly passing the pair of men and women and rushing into the undeveloped mountains.

Standing at the window on the fifth floor, Xu Yuan's face turned pale at a speed visible to the naked eye after hearing these words, pointing at the direction Li Chenqiu left and shouting loudly: "Everyone, go after them!"

With that, Xu Yuan jumped down from the fifth floor, chasing after the direction the two left.

Xu Yuan had no choice. What the other party said might be false, but it might also be true. He couldn't afford to gamble!
