Chapter 149: Confronting the Golden Core Stage Beast
Chapter 149: Confronting the Golden Core Stage Beast
As soon as Wang Chen entered the outer sea area, he felt an abnormal atmosphere!
An aura of bloodthirstiness seemed to emanate from all directions, making one feel compelled to remain vigilant at all times.
Whether it's a demon beast or a cultivator, they are all enemies in the outer seas!
The deep blue water occasionally had a huge figure swimming by, although the aura emitted was only that of the Golden Core stage, but Wang Chen did not doubt at all, if it were in the water, he would definitely not be able to catch up with it!
The endless ocean floor, with thousands of species of demonic beasts, so many that it's hard to distinguish between them! Even some ancient beasts that can't advance in rank have unimaginable strength!
In the air, there were also giant flying demons flying overhead, so Yun Chen Zhou didn't dare to fly too high. However, he couldn't fly too low either, or else one or two big fish would bite and drag him into the water, where countless demons would tear him apart, making Wang Chen's heart feel numb!
However, in the outer sea area, Wang Chen felt most was not fear, but excitement. With so many demon beasts and spiritual materials, advancing to the Yuan Ying period would be no problem at all!
After walking several thousand meters, Wang Chen finally heard it coming from a small island.
A very small island, only ten kilometers in circumference, with Wang Chen's abnormal eyesight, can see the other side of the island from here!
"Not bad!"
Wang Chen nodded and started to find a small mound to set up the cave mansion. However, this time's cave mansion was more hidden than the previous one, and the lower-grade array method was not used, fearing that it would be discovered by a Golden Dan period cultivator and backfire!
The cave itself was dug out by hand and did not involve any magical powers, and the entire cave had only two array formations set up, both of which were high-level array formations brought from the Luoyun Sect, with great power!
Dongdu was just built, and Xiaoqing's body suddenly grew bigger, then dived into the sea.
The sun sets in the west, and the distant sea surface is sparkling with waves. It's a beautiful scene, but it's not a good time to go out at night. Many aquatic monsters will hunt for food at night, and the killing will be more intense. Therefore, cultivators usually hunt and kill monsters during the day.
Of course, if you're confident enough, you can try going out at night!
No words were exchanged throughout the night, and on the second day, as soon as it dawned, Wang Chen prepared to hunt down the demonic beast.
The formation was set up, the demon-attracting grass was ready, and the demon pill was taken out. Before long, a unique fragrance wafted out!
Splash!
A group of demonic beasts emerged from the sea and crawled onto the shore! Unfortunately, most of them were late-stage foundation-building demonic beasts. After all, even in a sea where Golden Core stage demonic beasts existed, not all of them were Golden Core stage demonic beasts!
Wang Chen didn't let Thirteen make a move, with just a flick of his finger, a burst of sword energy shot out!
Pffft! Pffft!
The monster's body was as fragile as a paper paste, and it was knocked out of a small hole before falling to the ground and dying.
Wang Chen has already begun to use his own strength. Each sword energy consumed a lot of magic, and each sword energy contained Wang Chen's sword intent! Therefore, this sword energy looks less sharp than the Wind Without Fear Sword Energy, with a somewhat ethereal feeling!
The demon beasts of the foundation period also had instincts, after a dozen or so died, they began to flee underwater, and Wang Chen didn't stop them, after all, the demon beasts of the foundation period were no longer effective for Wang Chen!
However, the unique smell of the seductive grass was still spreading continuously!
Splash!
A figure over two meters tall emerged slowly from the sea, and if ordinary people saw this appearance, they would definitely shout "Monster"!
It's like a human body, but much taller, over two meters high. Its arms and legs are all intact, but they're different from those of humans.
The arm is a pair of giant pincers, with crab shells on the skull, and the entire head is a huge crab head, looking extremely ferocious!
On both legs, apart from a pair of big feet, there were also several pairs of small feet, like some kind of unknown monster!
A golden crab monster that had been growing for unknown years. Shrimp, crabs, fish and snakes are the most common aquatic creatures, so they have a huge number, but it's also harder to advance in cultivation, and their potential is relatively smaller.
However, their combat power is by no means low, and they can evolve from ordinary shrimp crabs to golden elixir-level demon beasts. The battles they have experienced are far more numerous than those of veteran cultivators!
However, the demonic beasts in the Golden Core stage can only barely transform into human form, and some of their bodies still retain their original beastly appearance. If they advance to the Nascent Soul stage, which is also known as the third transformation of the demonic core, they can transform into ordinary human beings, and from the outside, it's almost impossible to tell!
The monster stepped ashore, and its feet were followed by surging seawater, as if the monster had been treading on water all along.
The blue-eyed creature glanced over and the Golden Core demon beast walked straight towards Wang Chen, the seawater under its feet also surged up, as if to assist the demon beast!
Behind Wang Chen was indeed the demon-attracting grass!
Hoo-hoo!!
The crab demon didn't move, but instead let out a few roars and pointed at the demon-attracting grass behind Wang Chen. Wang Chen couldn't understand what it meant, but Yuan Hong, who was not far away and had ancient blood in him, could understand most of the language of the demon beasts, so he quickly translated for Wang Chen.
"Boss, he said you're really something, give him the Lingzhi grass from behind and he'll turn around and leave!"
"Oh!"
Wang Chen's eyes revealed a hint of enlightenment. It seemed that this demon-attracting grass didn't have much use, but in fact, it was extremely significant to the demon beasts, otherwise, so many wouldn't be willing to fight over it!
"Qǐ Líng Cǎo, just by its name, it should be able to awaken the spiritual intelligence of demonic beasts, making cultivation easier!"
However, Wang Chen was there to hunt and kill the demon beast, so he naturally wouldn't agree with the crab demon's sword intent. With a display of his aura, endless battle intent burst forth!
"Stand up!"
Wang Chen's body was now surrounded by a faint sword aura, and the small white sword was also floating above his head, emitting an astonishing sword intent!
However, the first to launch an attack was not Wang Chen. The crab demon opposite him had a lot of combat experience and, seeing the aura on Wang Chen's body, did not hesitate and directly swung its pincers to kill him! At the same time, the seawater around them also surged forward, forming wave after wave!
This battle was different from the previous one at Luoyun Sect. The previous one could be considered as an internal test, Wang Chen's opponent was a Golden Dan period cultivator, but he didn't even have the most basic magic treasure, only reaching the Golden Dan period in terms of magic power and realm!
So it can be considered the weakest in the Golden Elixir period! In comparison, this time's Crab Demon is also in the early stage of the Golden Elixir, but its combat power is comparable to that of an ordinary mid-term Golden Elixir cultivator!
The crab demon charged forward, and Wang Chen was no weaker. With a thought, a white sword light flashed out!
In an instant, the surging waves were split by this sword, and then scattered into water droplets falling to the ground! Immediately after, this blow continued to charge towards the crab demon!
Bang!
The crab demon wasn't surprised at all, and with a wave of its pincer, it was a direct hit. This blow was a hard collision, comparing the magical power and strength!
The power of the crab demon was already very great, and Wang Chen's white flying sword was also extraordinary, not in the five elements. Although it was knocked back with one blow, there was no harm at all, but instead, a faint mark appeared on the crab demon's claws!
The crab demon was a Jindan period demon beast, and these two claws were its strongest magical treasures. After being tempered for a long time, they had become the hardest part of its body, with a hardness comparable to that of a lower-grade magical treasure of a cultivator! However, it still bore a faint mark from Wang Chen's single strike!
Waaah!!
The crab demon let out a mysterious roar from its mouth, and then its body suddenly accelerated, still charging towards Wang Chen!
In mid-air, Wang Chen's white short sword suddenly vanished!
Then, faint red lotus flowers appeared in the air, scattered and dispersed, with a faintly discernible sword energy vibrating in the air.
The crab demon also sensed something was off, but the prolonged battle had given him a fighting intuition; running away would surely lead to defeat, and he could only charge forward!
The crab demon raised its pincers and rushed over to kill, King Chen's sword light also appeared, the lotus flower exploded, the sword energy instantly appeared, then condensed together, and stabbed at the crab demon's body!
However, the crab demon did not make a single defensive move and continued to swing its giant pincers at Wang Chen.
This splash immediately caused a surge of water waves all around, blocking Wang Chen's escape. The streets were generally aware of the monk's idea!
Wang Chen's heart skipped a beat, and he raised his right hand, swinging his fist to meet the incoming attack, determined to test the gap between himself and the Golden Core stage demonic beast!
