Chapter 106: Skin like steel jade, mutated crystal horn fish (leader of the Nuanyang Alliance)
Additional update, ninth update)
"Hello, three teachers, and Colonel Zhang."
Looking at the four people walking towards him, Chen Chu greeted them politely.
Zhao Zhilong laughed and said: "Haha... How good are you, Mr. Chen? It wasn't long before you made another breakthrough. It seems that we are full of talents in Eastern Xia."
"He is indeed a dragon among men." Xiao Hai praised.
Zhang Hong smiled and said: "Classmate Chen, if you have time, you can come to the military camp more often. The military exploits of those new recruits may be some inspiration to you."
"By the way, I remember that the general's younger brother, Mr. Hong Zetian, seems to be the dean of teachers at Nantian Wugao. Speaking of which, we are still a family."
Chen Chu was a little confused by his enthusiasm, but also a little surprised. He said in surprise: "...I didn't expect that the dean and the general are still brothers."
Zhang Hong smiled and said: "It's normal. The federal army and universities are not separated. They are both aimed at cultivating the backbone of mankind, but they focus on different directions."
"In this case, many strong practitioners will serve in the army and universities. If Chen is interested in the army one day, he can also join..."
cough!
At this time, Liu Feixu interrupted Zhang Hong, took a step forward and said: "Chen Chu, you are making good progress, but after the next breakthrough, remember to cover your whole body with your spirit and will and restrain your breath."
As she spoke, Liu Feixu slapped him, and in an instant, a strong force of will swept through Chen Chu's body, suppressing the invisible charm emanating from him.
Immediately, the invisible pressure emanating from Chen Chu's body disappeared, and the whole person looked much more ordinary.
Liu Feixu waved to him: "I remember that you were very exhausted when you came back yesterday. You have practiced hard again today. Go back and rest quickly."
I was very energetic when I came back last night, right?
Chen Chu was confused, but he also saw Liu Feixu's intention to urge him to leave, so he said hello to the other three people and left.
On the way back, recalling the performance of the four of them just now, Chen Chu whispered to himself: "It seems that my breath has not been completely controlled, and something has been noticed."
After the training, Chen Chu also tried to cover his whole body with spiritual power, restraining the invisible oppressive aura emanating from his body to avoid being seen by others.
But I don't know if it was because this breakthrough was too big or if his simple method of condensing the breath didn't work.
Thoughtfully, Chen Chu returned to the hotel.
It was already noon at this time, so he went directly to the third-floor restaurant.
Then Chen Chu found that many people were looking at him, which made him frown slightly. What's going on? Could it be that Liu Feixu didn't even control the breakthrough aura in him?
At this time, Xia Youhui came over and asked strangely: "Achu, what did you do to make your skin become so good all of a sudden?"
"Skin...?" Chen Chu paused.
"yes."
Xia Youhui said with envy: "You are already handsome, but now your skin has become so good. Don't you think those girls are drooling?"
At this time, Chen Chu's skin was as delicate as jade, his temperament was as calm as a mountain, and there was a hint of majesty between the opening and closing of his eyes. He looked handsome and eye-catching.
This is why he is being watched.
It turned out to be this reason. Chen Chu's eyes moved and he made an excuse casually: "It should be the problem with the third-level life crystal."
"The third-level life crystal also has a beautifying effect." Xia Youhui's eyes lit up.
"Not sure, it might be the reason for the exercise." Chen Chu didn't say anything.
In fact, it should be the reason for the Dragon Elephant Kung Fu. The introduction to the technique once said that when the Dragon Elephant Kung Fu is practiced to the extreme, some strange phenomena may occur in the body.
Among them is the skin like steel jade, which has the hardness comparable to steel and the shape of jade.
But he definitely couldn't tell Xia Youhui about this. After all, in everyone's eyes, he had only broken through to the third level of heaven, so it would be too exaggerated to suddenly practice his skills to the limit.
As for whether Xia Youhui would go to redeem the third-level crystal in order to look whiter, Chen Chu didn't care.
Because even if he didn't say it, Xia Youhui would still redeem the third-level life crystal later in order to speed up his physical tempering, so whether it was true or not would have no impact.
After eating, Chen Chu returned to the room and took out the exchanged energy crystal to prepare for practice.
Compared with the blue crystal given to him by Xia Youhui, the energy contained in this crystal, which can only be redeemed by fourth-level heaven practitioners, is one level lower in terms of purity and quantity.
Phew! As the Dragon Elephant Technique operates, the majestic suction force radiates from Chen Chu's body, pulling the thin extraordinary energy around him to gather.
At the same time, a stream of pure energy from the crystal in his hand poured into his body along the palm of his hand, and was quickly refined by the majestic dragon elephant's power, leaving almost no waste.
When the internal cultivation was on the right track, Chen Chu gradually focused half of his mind on the sword-armored beast.
As his mental power grows stronger, his ability to multitask becomes more and more proficient.
At present, I can easily move from two perspectives in daily situations. I only focus most of my attention when the sword-armored beast or the main body encounters a battle.
At a depth of more than 60 meters, the light is dim.
The black beast, which has grown to almost six meters, slowly wanders around, carefully sensing the fluctuations and smell of the surrounding seawater, searching for targets that can be hunted.
At this water depth, even the sword-armored beast can't see very far. Twenty or thirty meters away is a blur of turbidity.
The sword-armored beast swam in the water for half an hour, but most of the fish it encountered were "seafood" one or two meters long, and there was not a single larger mutant fish.
"It seems that most of the mutated fish in this area have been eaten, and we need to go further and deeper." The sword-armored beast swung its tail and disappeared into the darkness.
For safety reasons, this week the sword-armored beasts are active within a 50-kilometer radius of the coast. The deepest point is only more than 70 meters, and the hunting range covers the surrounding area.
However, the number of mutated fish in a sea area is limited. Under its constant hunting, most of the vicious fish that are over five meters tall and have reached the mutated level have been eaten.
This time the sword-armored beast almost swam dozens of kilometers in one breath before slowly stopping.
This place is more than a hundred kilometers away from the coast, and the water below is pitch black, and we don't know how deep it is.
The reason why the sword-armored beast stopped was that it keenly sensed something was wrong after arriving here. The energy of heaven and earth contained in this sea water was much richer.
"Strange, is there something good nearby?" The sword-armored beast looked around, its pale golden vertical pupils showing vigilance.
Because it found the silence here a bit strange, and it didn't even see any marine life.
At this moment, the sword-armored beast suddenly looked to the lower left, where a huge black shadow flashed past, and the waves of seawater generated when it swam moved far away.
Interesting. The sword-armored beast swung its tail and chased after the huge black shadow.
With its three major talents of strength, defense, and agility, it is confident that as long as it does not provoke those giant ocean beasts, ordinary mutant fish can escape even if it is in danger.
Soon the sword-armored beast caught up to 200 meters. Under the water depth of 300 meters, the strong water pressure coming from all directions made it unable to stop.
But at this moment, a little light came from the dark water in the distance, and the sword-armored beast couldn't help but become cautious and slowly approached.
About 500 meters below the sea, a small mountain like a volcanic crater rises from the ground. However, there is no magma in the crater, but it is covered with red and blue corals.
These corals emit a faint blue-red light, bringing a little light to the surrounding dark sea.
But at this time, mutant fish of seven meters, ten meters, or even more than ten or twenty meters in length were swimming slowly around the crater, with their huge mouths slightly open and swallowing something.
These mutated fish are shaped like giant groupers, with a short blue horn on their head. Their scales and fins are all blue and crystal clear, and they look as beautiful as blue crystals.
Looking at the group of twenty or so mutated fish, the sword-armored beast almost drooled.
However, it did not rush forward rashly, but stayed far away in the dark water, quietly waiting and observing.
This is the first time it has encountered a school of mutant fish, and it is not clear how they are different from other mutant fish.
While the sword-armored beast waited quietly, half an hour later, a seven-meter crystal-horned fish turned away first, followed by the second and third.
After the seven-meter swim was completed, then eight meters, then nine meters, and finally only the three crystal-horned fish with a size of over fifteen meters were left surrounding the crater.
The sword-armored beast lay on the dark seabed and waited for another half an hour. After seeing that the three huge crystal-horned fish had no intention of leaving, it gave up the idea of going over to take a look.
In the darkness, the sword-armored beast slowly retreated along the seafloor to avoid causing too much fluctuation in the sea water and being discovered.
After exiting the sea area for several kilometers, the sword-armored beast swung its tail and swam quickly to the upper left. There were several seven-meter-long crystal-horned fish in that direction.
The sword-armored beast in the water was very fast. It swam more than ten kilometers in just a moment and caught up with a crystal-horned fish in waters more than a hundred meters deep.
At this time, this mutant fish was also hunting. Its target was a group of bonito fish that were more than one meter long and had faint traces of mutation on their bodies. The huge body ran rampant inside and kept devouring them.
Occasionally, the crystal horn on its head will emit a weak blue beam of light, which will rush more than ten meters away. All bonitos hit by the blue beam will freeze.
Even the sea water was frozen, forming a line of ice crystals as thick as an arm and more than ten meters long, which were then broken and melted by the swaying sea water.
This scene made the sword-armored beast shudder.
It is actually a mutant fish that can use energy to attack. According to the official classification of mutant beasts, this mutant fish has reached at least level four.
It's just that in the perception of the sword-armored beast, this 'fourth-level' crystal-horned fish seems a bit weak, and the dangerous aura it emits is not as good as that of the mutated fat fish?
strangeness.
In doubt, the sword-armored beast showed a cold and cruel look in its eyes, and its dark and ferocious figure slowly and silently approached.
When the distance between the two sides was less than twenty meters, the sword-armored beast suddenly swung its tail and shot out at a terrifying speed, like a black shadow tearing through the sea water.
boom!
The sword-armored beast rushed towards it and slapped the back of the horned fish's head with its claw. In an instant, the seawater exploded under its claw, and the claw almost created a vacuum due to its terrifying power and speed.
Such a terrifying attack, at such a terrifying speed, before the crystal-horned mutant fish could react, half of its brain exploded like a watermelon.
Immediately, blood mixed with white splashes, dyeing the surrounding seawater red, exuding a strong bloody smell, making the black beast look extremely ferocious.
The surrounding bonito schools exploded under the invisible ferocious aura and fled madly.
It was not interested in those bonito sword-armored beasts that had only slight mutations. It was excitedly grabbing the body of the bonito fish and biting it in one bite on the back.
Click!!
The sharp teeth tore through the fish scales and tore off large chunks of flesh. Immediately, more blood spurted out, rendering the surrounding seawater more than ten meters scarlet.
Suddenly the sword-armored beast's eyes lit up, the energy contained in the flesh and blood of this mutated fish was so rich.
