Changsheng Xiuxian: I can see through everything

Chapter 222: Ancient Monster (Subscribe)

The roar of the ancient monster resounded throughout the earth.

A huge black wind swept over violently and quickly.

Three hundred feet ahead, a white snake was fleeing in a panic.

Standing above the white snake's head were Chen Xuan, Han Shaoyue, and Xu Jiali.

Chen Xuan turned around from time to time and cast the "Wooden Thorn Assault" skill.

There was a wave of spiritual energy in the air, and the nearby wood spiritual energy gathered together to form dozens of huge wooden thorns, which sprinkled towards the black wind like heavy rain.

As a result, accompanied by a ferocious roar, a giant palm grabbed the air and crushed the giant thorn blocking its way.

Han Shaoyue was not idle either.

He pointed at the extremely cold Yin sword, and a long and slender extremely cold flame spurted out and shot into the black wind.

The roar became louder and Black Wind increased its speed. One could vaguely see that there was a three-meter-tall black ape wrapped inside.

"This ancient demon beast, the Sky-Shaking Ape, is such a nuisance!"

Xu Jiali said angrily.

"What about the second-grade upper grade? What do you think?"

Han Shaoyue retracted the extremely cold flame.

"It's not afraid of fire or ice. How about Brother Chen use thunder magic to blast it?"

"Let me try!"

Chen Xuan raised the Thunder God Seal, and the power of thunder instantly covered it, condensing into a heavenly thunder, emitting a violent aura of destruction.

A flash of azure light passed by.

It was like a thunderbolt from the sky above, carrying a terrifying aura that could destroy everything, striking straight towards the body of the Sky-Shaking Ape.

Thunder bursts.

The Sky-Shaking Ape, who was originally furious and roaring, seemed to sense something. He looked up, pounded his chest with his fists, and actually spewed out a blazing flame from his mouth, continuously reducing the power of the thunder.

After all, it was a second-grade, top-grade ancient monster with rich bloodline power. The demonic flame actually reduced the power of the heavenly thunder to only a small part, and then exploded above the head of the Sky-Shaking Ape.

Didn't cause much damage.

The Sky-Shaking Ape glanced at the White Snake and everyone else, gave up the pursuit, turned around and flew away.

Chen Xuan and the other two finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"He's quite smart, I thought he was just a big fool!"

Xu Jiali said with a smile.

"Second-level upper grade, if we really fight, all three of us will be kicked out of the Spirit Mirror Illusionary World."

Han Shaoyue said with a serious expression.

"It retreated because Senior Brother Chen's Heavenly Thunder has a certain restraining effect on all demonic beasts. Every powerful demon that transforms must undergo the baptism of thunder."

"Unfortunately, Chen Xuan, your power is too shallow. Otherwise, if you could kill this Heaven-Shaking Ape, you could gain a lot of Taoist power!"

Chen Xuan smiled bitterly.

"Don't even think about it. It's already very difficult to escape from it!"

Chen Xuan asked Han Shaoyue: "What should we do next?"

Half a month before this, Chen Xuan and the white snake had worked together to hunt down three second-level medium-grade monsters.

Originally, everything was going smoothly.

As a result, I was unlucky today. When I went a little deeper, I encountered this second-level, top-grade Sky-Shaking Ape.

This also made them clearly realize that with their current strength, even with the addition of the white snake, they could not deal with the second-level top-grade monster.

On the periphery, it is becoming increasingly difficult to find a second-level mid-grade monster.

The elite disciples of the seven major sects have all entered the seventh level of the fantasy world.

Although the total number of people was less than a hundred, most of them, like them, formed teams and quickly divided up the outer territories.

In the area originally occupied by Chen Xuan and the other two, no second-level intermediate-grade monsters could be found.

However, a small number of second-level low-grade monsters only obtained 100 points of Dao power, which was pitifully small.

"How do you clear the seventh level of the Fantasy World? Is it calculated based on Dao Gong?"

"No."

Han Shaoyue explained, "Starting from the seventh level of the Fantasy World, once your Dao Power reaches a certain value, you will have the opportunity to obtain an inheritance."

"If you can learn it, you will be able to advance to the next level. Otherwise, no matter how much Dao power you have, you will be kicked out of the Spirit Mirror Fantasy World."

"I see."

Hearing this, Chen Xuan felt relieved.

Even though he had the "Wordless Taoist Scripture" and the divine power of the clairvoyance, he just didn't believe it, and there was also an inheritance that he couldn't learn!

……

The headquarters of Jinyang Sect.

The sky is filled with stars.

Outside a tent.

"Is Junior Brother Chen Xuan here?"

Sun Zhengying's voice rang out.

Chen Xuan, who was meditating and regulating his breathing, opened his eyes and a hint of confusion appeared on his face.

"Brother Sun, please come in."

Sun Zhengying walked in with a smile.

"Brother Chen, you've had a good harvest recently, haven't you? I heard that your team hunted down three second-level mid-grade monsters."

Chen Xuan smiled slightly.

"It was just luck. I'm sorry to have made you laugh, Senior Brother Sun."

"Brother Sun, do you have something to ask me?"

Sun Zhengying nodded and said, "Exactly. Junior Brother Chen, have you noticed that hunting second-level mid-grade monsters is becoming increasingly difficult now?"

"Indeed, there are too many people and too little food. There's nothing we can do about it."

Sun Zhengying frankly said, "Junior Brother Chen, have you ever thought about our two teams joining forces to deal with the second-level high-grade monster?"

"Second-level, top-grade demon beast?"

Chen Xuan smiled bitterly, "Brother Sun, you think too highly of me. Not long ago, our team was nearly devoured by a second-tier, superior-grade demon beast, the Heaven-Shaking Ape."

"I'm not being modest, Junior Brother, I really can't defeat a second-level, top-grade monster."

A second-grade top-grade demon beast is equivalent to a human in the late stage of foundation building. Even if it does not have magic weapons and is slightly weaker, if it has powerful innate magical powers, it can compete with humans in the late stage of foundation building.

"The Sky-Shaking Ape? It's incredibly powerful, with bones as strong as steel, so it's normal that we can't defeat it. However, we can find some weaker second-tier, high-quality monsters."

Sun Zhengying obviously had a plan in place.

"Our team discovered a lone lizard monster. Although it's a second-grade, superior-grade creature, it moves slowly, making it perfect for us to surround and attack it."

"Oh."

Chen Xuan was somewhat tempted. Even though the lizard monster had tough skin and thick flesh, its strength was astonishing.

As long as the speed is not too fast, he has no worries.

"Moreover, this kind of lizard monster is afraid of thunder attacks."

Hearing this, Chen Xuan reacted quickly.

Sun Zhengying has done his homework.

The reason why he came to find him must be that they had fought before.

"So Senior Brother Sun wants to join forces with me?"

Sun Zhengying explained with a smile, "Junior Brother Chen's Thunder Seal spell is extremely powerful. If we work together, we will be able to tear through the defenses of the lizard monster and kill it."

"Let me think about it."

Chen Xuan did not agree immediately, but pondered Sun Zhengying's intention in his heart.

It was reasonable and logical for him not to frame Chen Xuan in front of his fellow disciples in the magical world of the Spirit Mirror.

Otherwise, your reputation will be ruined and no matter how strong you are, you will not be able to obtain a high position in the sect.

If you want to climb up in a sect, personal reputation is sometimes more important than strength.

Once your reputation is ruined and you lose the trust of others, it will be difficult to accomplish anything alone in the future.

Besides, Tie Ningxiang and Feng Zhenghua are not Sun Zhengying's subordinates.

Even if Sun Zhengying wanted to do something, these two people might not agree.

Seeing that Chen Xuan was still hesitating, Sun Zhengying said with a pained look on his face, "After hunting down the lizard monster, the inner elixir will belong to Junior Brother Chen's team, and the materials will belong to my team of three."

Chen Xuan's eyes suddenly lit up.

The inner elixir of a second-grade, top-grade demon beast is priceless, and it is difficult for him to obtain it after leaving the Spirit Mirror Fantasy World.

He truly deserves to be the leader of the younger generation of Jin Yang Sect. He is very generous.

"In that case, Chen will not refuse. Happy cooperation!"

"Happy cooperation!"

Sun Zhengying smiled and high-fived Chen Xuan.

But my heart is bleeding.

Originally, according to his plan, he was going to work together with Tie Ningxiang and Feng Zhenghua to hunt down that second-grade, top-grade lizard monster.

However, Tie Ningxiang and Feng Zhenghua could only play a restraining role and could not cause any harm to the lizard monster.

His divine thunder sword could indeed cause damage to the lizard monster, but the lizard monster actually had the innate ability to recover automatically.

The three returned empty-handed.

He had no choice but to turn his attention to Chen Xuan.

He had seen the power of Chen Xuan's Thunder Seal.

If the Thunder Seal and the Divine Thunder Sword join forces and continue to attack, it is estimated that the lizard monster will not be able to recover in time.

There is also the white snake, a second-level monster, whose restraining effect is no less than that of Tie Ningxiang and Feng Zhenghua.

As for Han Shaoyue and Xu Jiali, in his eyes, they were just extras.

"Junior Brother Chen, we will set out together tomorrow morning. Let's prepare in advance to avoid delays."

"Don't worry, Senior Brother Sun."

After Sun Zhengying left, Chen Xuan called Han Shaoyue and Xu Jiali and told them that the two teams would cooperate in hunting beasts.

"If it's a lizard monster, this can be accomplished."

Han Shaoyue thought for a while and then spoke.

"I think so too. However, when the time comes, please be cautious, Senior Brother Han, and protect Xu Jiali from the outside. Don't get too close to the monster."

"As it should be."

Xu Jiali's pretty eyes moved back and forth between the two of them, but in the end she didn't say anything.

……

The next morning.

Chen Xuan and his two companions, along with Sun Zhengying and his two companions, will board their flying boat and fly all the way.

On the jade table of the flying boat, Sun Zhengying drew a spiritual map and marked the location of the lizard monster.

"Junior Brother Feng has already explored the route. This should be the territory of the Lizard Monster. It is the only second-rank, top-grade monster here."

Sun Zhengying assigned tasks to everyone.

As expected, Chen Xuan and Sun Zhengying took on the main attacking roles.

Tie Ningxiang and the White Snake restrained and harassed them.

Feng Zhenghua is responsible for guarding all directions.

Han Shaoyue and Xu Jiali followed Feng Zhenghua.

Rather than helping to keep watch, it's better to ask them not to cause trouble.

I have to say that when it comes to doing things, Sun Zhengying is still very responsible.

Make the best use of people.

"Does anyone have any objection to this arrangement?"

Everyone agreed.

After receiving everyone's approval, Sun Zhengying was obviously in a much better mood.

But when he saw Chen Xuan's calm young face, he couldn't help feeling a little lost.

I hope we won’t become rivals in the future.

At this moment, he had no confidence at all when facing Chen Xuan.

Although he was born as a casual cultivator, he was able to surpass all the heroes and rival the Seven Sons of Xuantian.

Think about it this way.

How terrifying is the talent of this Junior Brother Chen.

If he was like me, who had been trained vigorously by the sect since childhood and guided by the Jindan Zhenren, what would he be like now?
How big is the gap between the two?

A hint of frustration flashed in Sun Zhengying's eyes.

But he soon cheered up.

In any case, Chen Xuan and he are brothers from the same sect.

The two of them worked hand in hand and won the championship for their sect in the Seven Sects Competition, which became a good story when it was spread out.

It will be very beneficial for him to consolidate his position in the sect in the future.

As for Chen Xuan, he was born as a casual cultivator after all, and he had no connections. His future achievements would not be as bright and stable as those of a real disciple like him.

Thinking of this, Sun Zhengying's mood improved again.

Looking at the yellow desert area below the flying boat, he whispered, "We're here!"
