He was resurrected indefinitely and handed over to the state by the headmistress.

This little fox existed between reality and illusion, its presence so faint as to be almost imperceptible.

Only those bright, lively eyes shone with an eerie light identical to that of Su Daji.

"Go, follow him, monitor his every move, and find out about his abilities."

Su Daji whispered instructions to the little fox.

The pink fox nodded in a human-like manner, then with a flicker, it merged into the air and disappeared.

It's as if it doesn't exist in this space.

When it moves, it leaves only barely visible spatial ripples in place.

Aside from Su Daji herself, even a level 100 powerhouse...

It is extremely difficult to detect its existence unless one deliberately scans it carefully with their divine sense.

"kill!"

On the defensive side, the Breakthrough Squad was enraged by the sneak attack from Thunderback Eagle.

Under Gu Daoxuan's leadership, they moved like tigers descending the mountain.

They charged straight out of the defensive line and attacked the thousands of old and weak demons used as bait.

The battle was almost entirely a one-sided massacre.

These low-level demons were utterly powerless against the formation-breaking team.

They were quickly cleared away, as easily as chopping melons and vegetables.

The battle ended in just a few minutes without Lu Chen even needing to revive anyone.

However, strangely enough, until the last demon was slain,

The demon army on the other side of the spatial rift remained completely still.

No reinforcements were sent, and there were no signs of a new offensive.

Something's not right...

Gu Daoxuan flicked the blood off his sword, his brow furrowed as he stared at the desolate demon battlefield in the distance.

"This is not in their style."

Demons are known for their vindictiveness. How could they possibly have no reaction after suffering so many losses, including the death of a high-ranking demon?

Even Ouyang Zhen, standing on the city wall, felt a deep unease.

"Contract defenses and increase vigilance! Double the patrol area!"

He gave the order in a deep voice.

Something unusual must be going on; he sensed a conspiracy.

The formation-breaking squad remained on guard for a moment.

After confirming that the demons had no further moves, they began to withdraw their defenses in an orderly manner.

Just as they turned to go back, a sudden sense of unease arose in Gu Daoxuan's heart.

He turned around abruptly and unleashed a sharp sword aura into the empty space behind him!

"Who?!"

The sword energy swept across, carving a deep trench in the ground, but it hit nothing.

"There's nothing there? Captain, aren't you being overly sensitive?"

Ye Wentian looked around in confusion, then looked at Gu Daoxuan.

Gu Daoxuan focused his senses for a moment and indeed found nothing unusual, but the unease in his heart did not dissipate.

"I hope I'm just overthinking it... Let's go back first."

He shook his head and led the team back.

However, Lu Chen, who had been maintaining his life force, faltered the moment Gu Daoxuan swung his sword.

They keenly detected a barely perceptible fluctuation of life!

The fluctuations were as tiny as ants.

Fleeting,

Moreover, its location is unpredictable, and nothing can be seen with the naked eye.

At the same time, his mental attribute, which was over 60,000,

It was also subtly warning him.

It seems something is watching from the shadows.

"Something is following us..."

Lu Chen felt a chill run down his spine, but remained outwardly calm.

He couldn't be sure what it was, nor could he see it with the naked eye.

But the dual warnings from the realm of life and spiritual power convinced him that it was no illusion.

He secretly became more vigilant and scanned his surroundings more carefully, especially the direction in which the life force last disappeared.

The group returned to the military camp with their doubts.

"General, I'm going back to rest now. Call me anytime if you need anything."

Lu Chen spoke to Ouyang Zhen in a calm tone, but his eyes gave a subtle hint.

Ouyang Zhen, being a man of great stature, immediately noticed Lu Chen's unusual behavior.

But he didn't ask any more questions, he just nodded and said, "Okay, you've worked hard, go and get some rest."

Lu Chen turned and left, his steps seemingly casual, but in reality, he was highly focused.

He could sense that extremely faint fluctuation of life.

Sure enough, they followed silently, their target being him!

"So...it was coming for me after all?"

Lu Chen sneered inwardly.

"Then let me see what you really are."

He walked calmly toward his residence.

At the same time, it elevates the perception of the life domain to its ultimate level.

Like the most sophisticated radar,

Carefully trying to catch that almost non-existent "tail".

Watching Lu Chen's departing figure alone,

The members of the Breaking Formation Squad exchanged a puzzled look with Ouyang Zhen.

"Brother Lu... something seems off?"

Ye Wentian scratched his head.

"Hmm, it seems he's discovered something."

Gu Daoxuan's gaze was deep. He also vaguely felt that he had swept something when he swung his sword just now, but he couldn't be sure.

"Never mind that for now, strengthen security around the camp, especially around Lu Chen's residence."

Ouyang Zhen gave the order in a deep voice.

Whatever it was, since Lu Chen had noticed something and left alone,

It's very likely that they didn't want to alert the enemy.

What they need to do now is trust him and be ready to provide support.

Lu Chen returned to his room without making a sound, closed the door, lay down on the bed, and pretended to rest with his eyes closed.

In reality, he was highly focused, firmly locking onto the faint life energy fluctuation that was following him.

He could clearly perceive that tiny life energy entity.

Like an invisible ghost, it hovered silently in the room.

It seems they are observing him from all angles.

"This kid, apart from being handsome, seems unremarkable, nothing special..."

Through the little fox's eyes, Su Daji circled Lu Chen several times.

I looked him over carefully from head to toe, inside and out, several times, my mind filled with doubt.

Her strangely bright eyes were now filled with confusion.

Where does his resurrection ability come from?

Is it some kind of heaven-defying profession that has been awakened?

Or has it acquired some kind of forbidden artifact that recognizes its master?

Su Daji repeatedly probed through the little fox's senses.

Lu Chen's aura fluctuations were very weak, and according to the human level classification, he was definitely no more than level 30, and possibly even lower.

This is completely inconsistent with the "resurrection" ability he demonstrated.

How could a low-level professional possibly possess such unreasonable power?

The only explanation,

Either his awakened professional rank is unimaginably high.

Either he possesses a powerful artifact capable of altering the rules.

"Have you seen enough?"

Lu Chen suddenly spoke, his voice flat, as if he were talking to himself.

It's as if they're asking a question to thin air.

"come out?"

This sound made Su Daji, who was far away in the depths of the spatial rift, jump in surprise!

"He was able to spot me?!"

Su Daji was shocked.

How is that possible?

This pink fox is a special clone she created by combining her innate supernatural power with a fox tail.

Between reality and illusion, the aura was extremely faint.

Even a level 100 expert would find it extremely difficult to detect without deliberately scanning inch by inch with their divine sense.

How could this human boy with such a faint aura possibly have discovered it?

But soon, Su Daji calmed down and shook her head.

No, that's impossible. They might be testing us.

She carefully guided the little fox closer to Lu Chen.

It was almost touching his face.

Those eerie fox eyes were fixed on Lu Chen's tightly closed eyelids.

Trying to catch any subtle reaction from him.

Lu Chen remained motionless, his breathing steady.

It seemed as if he was truly asleep, his eyes never opening.

Su Daji breathed a sigh of relief.

"Looks like I was overthinking it; it was just a coincidental rambling in my sleep. He wouldn't even notice."

She thought to herself, controlling the little fox to continue lurking in the room and keeping watch.

However, Lu Chen was shocked:

"Why is this guy getting so close?"

Could it really "hear" me?

"Can it even 'see' me?"

He was indeed testing the waters, but the other party's response at such close range...

This made him almost certain,

This hidden entity possesses extremely high intelligence.

And it is very likely that it has real-time contact with the monitor.
