Chapter Thirty-Three: Hunting Monsters and Seizing Souls
Chapter 33: Hunting Demons and Seizing Souls
It's rare that a monster he knows is so weak. This six-winged golden cicada is only a second-level low-level monster and cannot pose a threat to him.
Chu Chen snorted coldly, raised his right fist, and with a step as fast as the wind, he immediately dodged to the back of the six-winged golden cicada, and hit the golden cicada's back hard with his dark fist.
The speed was so fast that the golden cicada was thrown four to five feet away before it could react. Several membrane wings were broken. The great force from Chu Chen's fists scattered the golden cicada's flesh and blood.
Black air billows.
Seeing the one on the ground, with black gas coming out of its flesh and blood, it was dying and could not move.
Chu Chen ignored them and walked towards the dense forest to take a look. On the way, he encountered a few second-level lower-level monsters. He took care of them and flexed his muscles.
At some point, while Chu Chen was still walking in the forest, he heard a "boom" from ahead.
I was shocked, and then I released my spiritual consciousness and strode forward.
I saw Liu Xiao standing in mid-air, with a bright and easily detectable red light emitting from the center of his eyebrows. A huge, red, ape-like monster fell under him. Half of its head was burnt black by the blast, and black smoke was rising.
.
After Liu Xiao absorbed the soul, she was a little surprised when she saw Chu Chen coming.
"Why are you here too?" Liu Xiao asked.
Chu Chen explained his purpose for a while, saying that he was looking for monsters to fight in order to break through the demonic body.
After listening to him for a while, Liu Xiao understood and nodded.
"I will follow you. Anyway, you are bored and want to kill the monster. Then kill it for me, and I will accept the soul of the monster." Liu Xiao said with a smile on her pretty face.
When Chu Chen heard this, he was a little speechless. It seemed that he had become a hard worker again, but he was willing to do so. After all, it was beneficial to both parties.
Besides, following Liu Xiao is much better than running around like a headless fly on this island full of monsters. Besides, with her by his side, Chu Chen actually felt a sense of peace of mind, which was hard to explain.
"Okay." Chu Chen responded.
Liu Xiao seemed to be aware of what Chu Chen was thinking, and added: "Of course, with me here, we can naturally avoid dangerous places where high-level monsters exist."
Chu Chen smiled and nodded.
As if realizing something, Liu Xiao's pretty face turned a little red. In the past, she was cold and went her own way, but she didn't know how to say "this girl" and other common sayings. After meeting him, has her personality changed?
Liu Xiao glanced at Chu Chen angrily.
After being given a blank look, Chu Chen was a little confused. What happened to her?
Women's thoughts are really unpredictable, and the more beautiful they are, the more so. Chu Chen usually thinks that he is quite clever and clever, but he is completely confused about this matter, as if it is different from his own cognitive field.
"What's wrong?" Chu Chen asked carefully. He didn't know why he was always submissive in front of her, and he couldn't hold his head up.
Could it be that he was not strong enough? Chu Chen thought about it for a while, sighed again, and made up his mind to impress her.
"It's nothing. Okay, no need to gossip, let's go." Liu Xiao stroked his forehead with one hand and said weakly, turned around and walked towards the woods ahead.
Chu Chen responded "Oh" and then followed him into the depths of the forest.
The desert island is no different than before. Since the illusion formation was broken, the area has increased by more than ten times. Now this island is more than a thousand miles away, which is quite large. But this is also for me. Looking at the many islands in the sky and sea, this island is just the smallest.
That kind of.
A small island like this has few resources and thin spiritual energy. Naturally, no monks are willing to set foot here. Even the monsters are mostly low-level characters.
As I walked, I discovered that this area was indeed different from before. Monsters were more frequent and their levels were higher.
Occasionally encountering a few second-level low-level monsters, Chu Chen killed them without any effort.
Liu Xiao also unceremoniously absorbed the souls of several monster beasts, frowning slightly. After advancing to the second-level intermediate level, the effect of swallowing the second-level lower-level monsters was too low.
After absorbing the soul, there was no big reaction in the Qi between the eyebrows. There was just a trace of feeling, which was undetectable. Perhaps absorbing the soul of a monster of the same level would have a better effect.
Liu Xiao sensed that the breath continued to deepen from the left and right, and Chu Chen followed closely from behind. The pace of the two was neither urgent nor fast.
The closer you get to the center of the island, the more powerful the monster seems.
As soon as Liu Xiao noticed the second-level monster, he cast a little spell to lead the monster to Chu Chen. Chu Chen basically left the rest to take care of it. However, all the monsters he encountered along the way were all second-level monsters.
Level monster.
Although Chu Chen didn't feel much pressure, he still worked hard to adapt to the demon body. His body was much more flexible than before, which was of great benefit to the demon body.
It wasn't until night that I encountered a second-level mid-level monster, which happened to be a two-headed monster wolf. It looked basically the same as the previous one, but was slightly larger in size.
Liu Xiao stood aside and wanted to help, but was stopped by Chu Chen. This was just enough for the demonic body to respond to the enemy with all its strength.
Chu Chen rushed forward without fear and fought with the demon wolf for a while and a half, and finally punched it to death. The demon wolf left several deep claw marks on his lower abdomen, blood gushed out, and he was seriously injured.
Although the time was short, it was very dangerous. This demon wolf was only one point stronger than the one that day, and it was probably about to advance to the upper level of the second level. It was extremely fast and was on par with Chu Chen, but after several rounds of maneuvers, it was still
Died by Chu Chen's fist.
During this fight, Chu Chen gradually discovered that when a punch is issued, he controls the demonic energy and drives it into the flesh of the monster, and the damage can be increased several times. In other words, if he can make good use of this demonic energy, his combat power will increase.
Much enhanced.
After two battles, Chu Chen has noticed that the strength of the demon body has been slightly increased, and the effect is significant.
After Liu Xiao finished absorbing the soul of the demon wolf, he felt that the Qi between his eyebrows was a little fuller. Although it was far less than before, the effect was still relatively large. The soul of this second-level mid-level demonic beast was worth twenty or thirty second-level low-level ones.
Soul.
However, the advancement of monsters is too slow. It would take tens or even hundreds of years for ordinary monsters to advance to her level. If there was no such devouring method, they would probably have to survive on this small island with extremely thin spiritual energy.
It takes hundreds of years of practice to cultivate the third-level demon body.
If he could devour one or two second-level intermediate monsters like this in a day, his time would be reduced by at least ten times. Thinking of this, Liu Xiao felt a little relieved.
However, seeing Chu Chen's abdomen bleeding non-stop and the blood covering his clothes, he felt as if he had been stabbed somewhere in his heart, making him extremely uncomfortable.
He simply took out a bottle of elixir from his storage bag and handed it to Chu Chen. Although it was precious, he felt really unhappy if he didn't do it.
"Take this."
When Chu Chen picked it up, he couldn't help but be stunned.
The fragrance of the medicine in the bottle overflowed, and he felt refreshed after just one sip. After all, Chu Chen had learned a lot from the book, and he concluded that it was by no means a bargain, but a rare elixir.
"This is such a waste." Chu Chen couldn't help but said.
It is indeed a waste. My demonic body has strong recovery power, so this injury is nothing. I can recover in one or two hours of meditation.
"I'd better give it back to you. Besides, even if I get hurt, it has nothing to do with you." Chu Chen shook his head and said.
"...Humph, isn't it just a bottle of elixir? To this girl, of course...it's nothing." Liu Xiaoqiao's face turned red, and she unconsciously started to talk duplicity.
It was indeed very precious to her, but she didn't want to tell Chu Chen about it.
"Uh, then... I'll accept it." Chu Chen said gratefully. He didn't expect Liu Xiao to be such a generous person and gave such precious healing elixirs to him, and his heart felt warm.
"Also, if you just said something, I would help you and you wouldn't be hurt," Liu Xiao said.
"I was the first to propose this hunting of monsters. If you... don't want to, forget it." Liu Xiao sighed and continued.
"Of course...of course I am willing, I also need to fight monsters like this to cultivate my demon body, otherwise it will be difficult to advance." Chu Chen continued.
The night is blurry, the moon is like water, the stars are shining everywhere, and the cold wind is faint.
"You...don't regret it." Liu Xiao murmured.
"Of course I don't regret it." Chu Chen said seriously.
Hearing this, Liu Xiao's cheeks turned red. He coughed to cover up his embarrassment and said casually: "Devil...Demon body, how are you doing with your cultivation?"
The night was too dark, so naturally Chu Chen couldn't see Liu Xiao's expression, but he was stunned when he heard these words. It seemed like it was the first time she asked him about cultivation.
Chu Chen was both surprised and ashamed. What surprised him was that she actually cared about him. What he was ashamed of was that his combat power was not as good as Liu Xiao's, which really made him a little depressed.
"It's... not bad, but it's not as good as you." Chu Chen said matter-of-factly.
Hearing this, Liu Xiao was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head. Although his Flame Spirit Technique was extremely powerful, it consumed a lot of energy. It could only have one or a few blows, which was far inferior to Chu Chen's demonic body, which had a steady stream of combat power.
, in addition to this, he can also use terrifying spells such as the Crazy Wood Devouring Lan Technique. Overall, I should be inferior to him.
