The Eternal World

"But, even if I knew, what use would it be?" After everyone learned about the situation regarding the body rearing area, they once again sank into a downturn.

The problem had not been resolved yet, and what they were facing now was a crisis that could be torn apart and devoured at any time by these strange ghosts.

"It's better than everyone dying here!" Zhang Chao took a deep breath. He didn't want to die the most, he had originally planned to earn some money and then beat up that Second Boss, who knew that it was so dangerous. If he had known earlier, he wouldn't have come …

The salted fish could probably drown them with a single mouthful of saliva!

With this thought in mind, his heart grew much calmer, and he even felt a surge of fighting spirit.

"Attack the stone pillar!" Zhang Chao was eager to give it a try.

"What?" Are you crazy? " Du Ze opened his eyes wide.

"There's nothing we can do now, we can only give it our all. If my thinking is correct, then our danger will be resolved. If I'm wrong, then my actions will attract the attention of all the other ghosts and create some time for you to escape!" Zhang Chao righteously spoke out: "If you want to succeed, then there must be a sacrifice. Since no one is willing to break the stalemate, then let me do it!"

"This, are you serious?" Du Ze raised his eyebrows.

"Of course, could it be that the Du Family has some other good method?" Zhang Chao's tone was determined.

"..." Du Ze was silent for a long time, then he looked at Zhang Chao and said: "I, Du, have never admired anyone, but little brother, today I admire you. If we don't die and escape for our lives, you will be my brother in the future!"

"Uh, thank you for your love!" Zhang Chao felt his stomach churn. He, Du my brother? The one lying on the ground, the unlucky fellow who lost a leg and had a big hole in his chest, that should be your brother, right?

Who would dare to be your brother when he could be sold at any time?

"Zhang Chao, how about we choose someone to replace you?" Qiao Heng frowned, he did not want anything to happen to Zhang Chao.

"Someone else? Forget it, no one is more suitable than me for this matter! " Zhang Chao licked his lips and said: "Get ready, I'm going up!"

Saying that, he suddenly let out a loud roar and released all the Yuan Power in his body that he could muster. He then leaped up and pounced towards the stone pillar closest to him at an extremely fast speed.

"Ji ji!" A large group of wraiths locked onto him in an instant, their bodies became even faster, directly jumping out from the ground, transforming into black shadows as they rushed towards Zhang Chao!

"Hmph. You bunch of dwarves. Do you think that I am deliberately acting as a target? "Obediently make way for me!" Zhang Chao sneered, and flicked his finger in the air.

Suddenly, the ground emitted a muffled sound, followed by two spear-like thrusts shooting forward, piercing through the black shadows beside him!

"Battle skill, Earth Spear Piercing Heart Piercing Dragon!"

This was a defensive method that Zhang Chao had set up a moment before he had taken off.

Furthermore, because his elemental energy was far thicker than that of cultivators of the same level, he had made some modifications to the battle skill so that he could display it twice at the same time!

"Good move!" Although Qiao Heng's cultivation far surpassed Zhang Chao's, he still couldn't help but cheer when he saw this scene.

"En, his battle consciousness is much stronger than the majority of the mercenaries. Moreover, his cultivation is only at the third level of Natal Opening Realm, and he can use his combat skill twice at the same time. This kid is a talent!" Du Ze began to admire Zhang Chao more and more, a glint flashed past his eyes, as he praised without any stinginess.

But there was still trouble for Zhang Chao.

Those black shadows pounced towards him from all directions. Although the two earthen spears had swept away the black shadows on the left and right, there were still quite a few black shadows that had already pounced in front of him.

"All of you, scram!" Zhang Chao did not care much, and directly opened his mouth and threw the silver fish magical equipment into his mouth, swallowing it whole.

In the blink of an eye, rays of light burst out from his body. His cultivation base, which was so dazzling, increased once again!

Actually, the effect of consuming the little fish magic treasure wasn't as incredible as he had anticipated.

This was a high-grade Mortal level magic treasure!

Logically speaking, how could the power contained within it allow his cultivation level to soar by seven or eight levels?

However, the ideal is plump, while the reality is bony.

His cultivation level increased in an instant, but he only jumped two levels before stabilizing.

"The heck, there are only two levels?" Zhang Chao wanted to cry, but no tears came out. He could feel that a portion of the treasure's energy had not been absorbed by him, but had entered his dantian and disappeared.

However, he could not think too much about it. Even if he only had two levels of power to raise, it was enough for him!

In just a few short days, he leapt from the level of cultivation he had just reached to the fifth level of Natal Opening Realm. This kind of speed, perhaps even in the entire Gu and modern times, there weren't many people who could achieve it.

"What?" What did he do? Why did his aura suddenly increase? " Du Ze's pupils contracted, and couldn't help but exclaim.

"He instantly increased two levels. Heavens, what did he do?" This … Is that even possible? " Even Qiao Heng and the experienced and knowledgeable old man from the Qiao Family were panting as they stared at Zhang Chao, who was in mid air, with disbelief.

Using the impact of the spirit force released from the increase in his cultivation, Zhang Chao was able to push away the group of ghosts that were rushing towards him. Taking advantage of this chance, he took out the Nine-striped Heavenly Hammer from his bosom and used all of his strength to smash onto the stone pillar!

"Boom!" The hammer landed on the stone pillar and produced a deafening sound. Elemental energy ripples spread out in all directions like a fan, creating a gale.

The force of the strike was too great, causing the ground to shake.

"Ka ka …" Cracks immediately appeared on the surface of the stone pillar, closely followed by the "Boom!" The ground crumbled.

Following that, countless streams of viscous liquid gushed out and fell to the ground, along with a rotting male corpse.

"Success?" The group of people widened their eyes.

"Squeak squeak squeak!" Soon after, a large number of strange ghosts let out ear-piercing screams as if they were in incomparable pain. Then, their bodies began to wither at a speed visible to the naked eye, turning into dry corpses that were less than half an inch in size.

"It worked!" Both of Zhang Chao's feet landed on the ground, his entire body separated and he directly sat on the ground, gasping for breath.

Right now, his entire body was aching in pain as he forcefully swallowed the small silver fish, causing his meridians to instantly become thicker. At the same time, the burden on his body also appeared, making him feel as if he was being pressed down by a huge mountain, making it hard for him to raise both his hands.

The remaining strange ghosts seemed to have gone crazy. They ran around aimlessly and hid behind their respective pillars. It was as if no one dared to show their faces again.

"Hahaha, little brother, you … This is too amazing, I don't even know what to say anymore! " Du Ze was the first to walk to Zhang Chao's side, raising his hand to pat him on the shoulder, laughing non-stop.

The others also smiled. It was a feeling of having survived a disaster.

"As expected... The servant Old Pang was right, this man is not simple! " Qiao Heng thought in his heart as he walked forward. Taking the initiative, he held Zhang Chao up.

"Ah, luckily I made the right bet. I almost thought I was going to die just now!" Zhang Chao deeply exhaled, and laughed with great effort.

Everyone looked at Zhang Chao in a new light. No one looked down on him anymore.

"AHH!" Suddenly, someone screamed, "Open … "I've opened my eyes!"
