From a martial arts disciple to a god through countless trials and tribulations

Chapter 74 Unexpected Disaster (First Order)
"rustle!"

Chen Xuan moved forward at a high speed through the forest, climbed a nearby mountain, and observed the situation in the Xiaoshi Lake area.

The body of the snake demon found in the forest was not yet stiff, which meant that it died within an hour.

"There's a brutal fight going on nearby, and it's very likely not over yet."

Chen Xuan said to himself, not wanting to be involved in this for no reason.

He was very alert and jumped onto a towering tree more than 20 meters high. He looked down at the small stone lake a few miles away through the dense branches and leaves.

Soon, the scene of his own yard in a mess and a ruin came into view.

"yeah?"

Chen Xuan's pupils shrank, and his mouth opened in shock: "What's going on? Are these people crazy?"

The mud wall of his newly built courtyard collapsed, leaving a large hole in the wall, visible from both sides. High-temperature flames were engulfing the house in a circular pattern, and thick smoke billowed from the roof like black snakes...

A sea of ​​fire.

Chen Xuan went out to meet Fellow Daoist Yan for a rare occasion, but when he came back, he was shocked to find that his home was gone!

"I didn't provoke anyone!"

He looked grim and frowned. This was too outrageous and no one would be happy if they encountered such a thing.

Outside the yard, three or four corpses with human bodies and snake tails, stripped of their clothes, were hanging on the trees. The long snake tails with scales growing on their waists and abdomens were floating in the flames and thick smoke, which was extremely eerie.

This horrifying scene is extremely shocking and seems to carry some kind of stern warning.

Chen Xuan never expected that the fight between strangers would start at his own home, and the victorious party even used his residence as a place of execution to show off their power!

"Excessive!"

He was filled with anger, and the joy he had felt from practicing with Yan Yushu and gaining something from it was instantly shattered. This was intolerable.

Moreover, fortunately, he was cautious by nature, and when he traveled, he carried important items such as antiques and fairy pear wine with him, otherwise everything would have been in trouble.

"My benefactor, your house burned down and we have no place to live!"

In the sky, the little bird cried out excitedly, its wings emitting a streak of colorful light, and it flew down, appearing very anxious.

"Queyu, what happened?"

Chen Xuan asked with a serious expression. The little bird's range of activity covered the area around Xiaoshi Lake. It had sensed movement in the mountains and was circling high in the sky, secretly observing. Chen Xuan spotted the little bird's tracks and called it down.

The little bird hung in front of Chen Xuan, crying out in panic, "A group of orthodox human monks from the Chu State Demon Suppression Division, wearing fiery red armor, are chasing a group of snake demons everywhere and setting the mountain on fire. It's frightening the bird to death!"

Demon Suppression Division?
Chen Xuan was stunned when he heard this. The Demon Suppression Division was the official force of the Chu State that specialized in dealing with demons and ghosts. They were often fighting against the Demon Kingdom in the border areas and were notorious for their evil deeds.

A bright red standard armor is its unique symbol.

Every Demon Suppression Division team in the Chu State has at least one Daozang Realm master leading the team... Rumor has it that Wang Zhenyang, from the Qi-training family in Chiya City, was forcibly recruited into the Demon Suppression Division by the Jiang Dynasty when he first became a Daozang. He fought tough battles with the Demon Kingdom on the border battlefield for several years.

But the ghosts in the Southern Wilderness have always been law-abiding and never leave the Southern Wilderness.

Therefore, there were very few signs of the Demon Suppression Bureau's activities in the south of Chu State. But now, they have entered the Southern Wilderness and started a killing spree, giving no face to the Southern Wilderness ghosts and monsters at all.

"Where are Bai Zi, Shan Ye and the others?"

Chen Xuan asked the little bird whether the other little monsters had left safely.

The little birds replied that they had already returned to their home deep in the Southern Wilderness and had not encountered any battles with the Demon Suppression Bureau to hunt down demons.

Chen Xuan nodded, then asked calmly, "Do you know where the Demon Suppression Division is battling the demons? Is it still in the Southern Desolate Mountains? Tell me what you know."

There must be an explanation for destroying his new house.

He doesn't cause trouble easily, but he is not afraid of trouble either!

The little bird was startled when he heard this, and immediately said nervously, "My benefactor, please stay calm. If our house is destroyed, we can rebuild it. Even my carefully crafted bird's nest is often robbed by wild beasts... The other side has a great cultivator in the Daozang realm!"

It was very worried that Chen Xuan would be impulsive and do something like hitting a rock with an egg or flying into a flame... He knew that Chen Xuan was very powerful, several times stronger than Hu Dadu, but he was definitely not a match for a great cultivator in the Daozang realm. Didn't he escape in a panic from the old baboon yesterday?

"It's okay to speak frankly. I know my limits."

Chen Xuan replied calmly, "Yesterday, I failed to measure up to the old baboon and fled in panic. Now that I have met the Daozang realm, should I still swallow my anger?"

Fellow Daoist Yan endured all the hardship for most of the day, but it was all in vain!
Today the truth is on his side!
Seeing that Chen Xuan looked calm and composed, and did not seem to be blinded by anger, the little bird described in detail what it saw in the sky.

The little bird was not the first to notice the sudden change in the mountain. When it heard the noise and rose into the air, it only saw a group of soldiers from the Demon Suppression Division chasing a purple-clothed snake demon to the south.

"I see."

Chen Xuan nodded slightly. Just as he had guessed from observing the traces on the battlefield, the snake demons could only have a chance of escaping the pursuit of the Demon Suppression Bureau by fleeing deep into the Southern Wilderness.

He jumped down from the tree and headed south!

……

The mountain road is rugged. The further south you go, the taller the trees become. The treetops block out the sun and are closely connected, not letting in any light.

"Swish!" Chen Xuan followed the traces left by the battle between the Demon Suppression Bureau and the monsters at a very fast speed, and his speed became faster and faster, like a flash of lightning flashing through the forest. He easily jumped out in one step and reached a terrifying distance of forty or fifty meters.

"My benefactor, calm down!"

The little bird cried out anxiously, chasing after him in the sky, but was soon left behind by Chen Xuan. It was stunned, "My benefactor, you are so fast! You are even faster than the strong ancient people in the Peach Blossom Spring."

The ancients had strong physiques, representing the limit of what humans can achieve. Without using immortal energy, few cultivators can compare to the ancients.

But at this moment, the running speed demonstrated by Chen Xuan has surpassed that of the ancient people in Taohuayuan, and it is far surpassed.

"Boss Benefactor, you're suddenly much stronger than yesterday. Did he take some magic medicine?"

The little bird looked stunned, and soon realized that Chen Xuan's strength had surged, almost twice as strong as yesterday. It was so shocked that it almost forgot to flap its wings and fell from the sky.

"After breaking the limit, this body broke the limit of more than 25,000 kilograms after three transformations. The strength of Qi and blood seems to be able to grow without limit."

After Chen Xuan left the Six Desire Heavens, several magic tricks and the solar energy reflected on his physical body. Combined with the energy accumulated in his body from learning magic tricks before, the strength of his qi and blood increased rapidly. After more than an hour of transformation, it was finally coming to an end.

"Forty-eight thousand kilograms..."

Chen Xuan felt the surging blood and energy in his body like a river. As the blood and energy increased almost exponentially, the toughness and strength of his entire body reached an extremely terrifying level.

"If the old mandrill were to use his Daozang right now and hit me with a black iron rod weighing tens of thousands of pounds, I wouldn't need to dodge, I could just rely on my strength to take it."

Most of the Daozang realm masters in the world are definitely not as strong as Chen Xuan’s body at this moment!
If the person in front of him was a top-level powerful person like Old Turtle, Chen Xuan would not ask any more questions, or even mention it. He would just keep the matter in the depths of his heart and remember it silently.

"But the other party is only at the Daozang realm, why should I be afraid? I'll weigh it again today!"

Less than half an hour later.

Chen Xuan ran for hundreds of miles and chased to a deep river. A battle had just taken place here. The trees on the river bank were burning, and there were many fresh bloodstains on the ground that had not completely dried up.

"The battle just ended."

Chen Xuan used his toes to stir up the blood in the mud, and then found some broken purple-black scales on the river bank. He speculated in his heart: "The snake demon used the river to continue its escape."

As for the forests on both sides of the river, there were some traces left by monks trampling on the grass and trees. This should be because the Demon Suppression Bureau spread out to form a large net and continued to hunt along the river.

"We are very close to them. We need to be more cautious from now on."

Chen Xuan thought for a moment, slowed down his pursuit by a few points, and tried his best to restrain his majestic aura. Like a ghost hidden in the night, he continued to move south along the river.

"Wow!"

At the same time, he was multitasking, his soul and spiritual consciousness field activated, with himself as the center of heaven and earth, and the white light of spiritual consciousness spread out like a lamp that never went out in the dark night, covering an area of two to three hundred meters.

The snake demon is good at water. Now that night has fallen, if you are not careful, you may miss the figure that is escaping through the waterway.

Divine consciousness is like the light of heaven, illuminating everything without missing a single trace.

"what?"

After walking more than a mile, Chen Xuan suddenly stopped and a smile appeared on his face.

He completely slowed down, like a cheetah locking onto its prey, moving forward silently. After walking about a hundred meters, he stopped.

"Wow!"

Under the moonlight, the river flows downwards, and the subtle gurgling sound of water is pleasant to the ears in the quiet night.

"puff!"

Chen Xuan suddenly leaned down, his hand reached into the stream like a sharp arrow, grabbed a large bunch of thick black woman's hair, and pulled a young woman in purple clothes and vertical pupils out of the water!

Snake demon!

The moment the purple-clothed, vertical-eyed woman emerged from the water, a look of extreme horror appeared on her weak and listless face.

She was a great demon in the Daozang realm. Using the power of water virtue, she almost merged with the river and hid her body. Even the Daozang master from the Demon Suppression Bureau who passed by the river did not notice anything.

But at this moment, his disguise was discovered!
impossible!
"It's you!"

The purple-clothed woman screamed in surprise, her pupils suddenly shrank, and she recognized Chen Xuan. He was the young cultivator whom she had seen at a glance yesterday when he was robbing the fairy pear wine in the mountains!

"I got you, little bastard!"

Chen Xuan spoke, and a golden rune lit up between his eyebrows. He instantly raised a shining fist, as if holding a small sun, and threw out an extremely powerful punch.

Solar Qi!
A punch was thrown, and the air flow rolled to both sides!
"boom!"

As soon as the purple-clothed woman's curvaceous upper body emerged from the water, her slender belly, like a willow branch, was immediately hit by Chen Xuan's fierce and merciless fist.

The river surged and splashed everywhere.

Chen Xuan grabbed the purple-clothed woman's long hair like a waterfall with his big hands. The slender snake tail under the water was swung out of the water under the huge impact, and the whole body was lifted into the air.

"puff!"

Purple light ripples and blood mist fills the air.
