God of Pets

Chapter 42 The Big Devil

The King of Corpses should be a level ten peerless secret spirit. Such a secret spirit, after a nap, has already reached the top of the pyramid in terms of combat power.

Shadow killed the King of Corpse with just one sword. What a terrifying fighting power! It made Chen Guan suspect that his level was more than ten.

Chen Guan and Ji Nanhong looked at each other and saw fear in each other's eyes.

Faced with such an existence, they had no capital to fight it at all. The King of Shita could not escape the shadow's sword, and they could not escape it either.

Shadows are born from light, and shadows exist only when there is light. From a certain perspective, the speed of shadows may be comparable to that of light.

Of course, from what we saw just now, the shadow's speed was definitely not as fast as the speed of light, but that weird and bizarre attack method was not something they could resist.

"We must escape as soon as possible." Ji Nanhong looked at the corpse of the King of Corpses hanging on the bone chain.

The King of Shita climbed down along the bone chain. Although they couldn't see where the top of the bone chain was connected, judging from the location of the bone chain, it was below the crack in the ground, so perhaps they could climb up along the bone chain.

The body of King Shita was about ten meters away from them in a straight line, and about five or six meters in vertical height.

If she had not been injured, Ji Nanhong could have jumped up and grabbed the corpse of the King of Corpses, but unfortunately she couldn't even stand up now.

"Can you catch the corpse of King Shita by jumping?" Ji Nanhong asked Chen Guan.

Chen Guan shook his head: "I'm only level 6 now, and I don't have any Qinggong secrets, so I can't jump that far or that high."

In addition to not being able to jump that far, Chen Guan had a deeper concern in his heart.

They had been here for a while, and the shadow did not attack them. The King of Corpses climbed down the bone chain and was killed directly by the shadow.

Chen Guan was worried that if he climbed up the bone chain, Shadow would become murderous again, and that would be his own death.

But there is no way up and no way down here. Apart from climbing up along the bone chain, the only way is to go into the water to find a way out.

Chen Guan still prefers to go into the water. Although his swimming skills are only average and there may be unknown mysterious spirits underwater, it is better than provoking a terrifying existence like Shadow.

"I know what you are worried about. From what I see, that shadow is not an ordinary wild secret spirit. It should be the guardian used by the Emperor to protect the Afang Sutra from being destroyed. That's why he only attacks the secret spirit and not us." Ji Nanhong said.

Chen Guan felt that what Ji Nanhong said made sense, but he would never take the risk because of it.

"It's not that I don't want to go, it's just that I really can't reach it." Chen Guan said.

"In this way, although my legs can't exert force, my hands can still exert force. You can use the strength of my hands to leap up, and then use the rope to pull me up, and I can climb up with my hands." Ji Nanhong said.

"No." Seeing that there was no way to shirk his responsibility, Chen Guan refused directly without any scruples or hesitation, and was too lazy to find excuses.

Ji Nanhong looked at Chen Guan in some surprise. She didn't expect him to be so direct and not care about his face at all.

Darkness fell again. Ji Nanhong lowered her head with a gloomy expression. If her feet had not been injured, she would not have looked at Chen Guan's expression.

But now she had no other options. After much thought, she couldn't come up with a better solution. She couldn't climb up the bone chain herself. Chen Guan sat down to rest, with Zhan Guo beside him. He placed one hand on Zhan Guo's head and thought to himself.

"Although what Ji Nanhong said makes some sense, it still has loopholes. Zhan Guo is also a secret spirit, but the shadow did not attack it directly..." While Chen Guan was thinking, the stone wall lit up again, and the shadow resumed its sitting position, and the shadow sword in his hand disappeared.

Seeing this situation, Chen Guan relaxed a little. The shadow didn't seem to have any intention of attacking them, but the feeling of being stared at by the shadow was still there. He felt that the shadow would not let him leave alive so easily.

"Chen Guan, if you are willing to help me, I can introduce you to join the Heavenly Court Army." Ji Nanhong suddenly said.

Chen Guan was stunned when he heard this, turned around and stared at Ji Nanhong without saying a word.

The Heavenly Court Army is the exclusive ace army of the Ancestral Court. In addition to guarding the Ancestral Court, it also has the obligation and authority to implement the resolutions of the Ancestral Court.

It can be said that the Heavenly Army is the highest law enforcement agency in Shenzhou. The status and position of any member of the Heavenly Army is no less than that of the lord of an ordinary small city.

The welfare benefits and cultivation resources are beyond the reach of ordinary people in their lifetime.

Moreover, the Heavenly Court Army has a tradition of inheriting the business from father to son. Although there is no explicit regulation, generally speaking, as long as the descendants of the Heavenly Court Army receive training from an early age and pass the test after adulthood, they have the opportunity to become substitutes for the Heavenly Court Army and can fill in once there is a vacancy.

Becoming a member of the Heavenly Court Army not only means having a stable job for life, but it is also possible that your descendants will have stable jobs as well. Your status will also be improved. It is one of the best ways for ordinary people to cross classes.

If Chen Guan came from a completely ordinary family and was able to join the Heavenly Court Army, it might be the best chance for him to turn his life around.

Unfortunately, Chen Guan’s family background is worse than that of ordinary people, otherwise he would not have entered the secret realm alone with empty hands.

Chen Guan also wants to join the Heavenly Army, but he absolutely cannot join because the Heavenly Army will conduct detailed background checks on every member. By then, Chen Guan may not even be able to be an ordinary person, and it may even bring disaster to his family.

All this happened because of a man, Chen Guan’s father Chen Xinghe.

Chen Xinghe's original surname was not Chen, nor was it this name. He later took Chen Guan's mother's surname and changed his name to this one. Even Chen Guan took his mother's surname.

The reason for changing the name is that Chen Xinghe's original identity is no longer tolerated by heaven and earth.

Thirty years ago, the name of the great devil Qingbai was known to everyone in China, to the extent that it could stop babies from crying at night.

It is hard to say whether there have been any successors in the tens of thousands of years of Chinese history, but the notoriety of the great devil Qingbai is definitely unprecedented.

The catastrophe caused by the great evil leader Qingbai single-handedly swept across almost the entire Shenzhou, and more than a million people died as a result.

Throughout history, there has only been one recognized great villain. Whenever anyone mentions the word "great villain" without adding any other qualifiers, they are definitely referring to Chen Guan's father.

Words like "full of evil", "extremely heinous" and "unforgivable" are usually used to describe Chen Guan's father.

Later, the big devil was surrounded and killed by the ancestral temple and the ten major families. Although he escaped with his life in the end, his cultivation was completely destroyed and he could no longer embark on the path of cultivation. He was no different from an ordinary person.
