Peach Blossom Spring, Peach Grove, Maiden, Monkey
"Fuck you!"
What kind of rubbish is this?!
Take this punch!
Turning his head, he saw this monster, which really frightened Zhang Xuanchen!
In desperation, he threw a punch.
The fist slammed into the monster's head like a cannonball!
Bang!
The monster's head exploded instantly, and its body flew through the air, slamming heavily into the dark stone wall.
"Hahaha! Are you satisfied now that you've sent me to my sea of consciousness and scared me like this?"
Xuanjing reappeared on Zhang Xuanchen's shoulder, his smile unending.
Hearing this, Zhang Xuanchen had no rebuttal, after all, what she said was correct.
If it had been a powerful monster, he would be dead by now.
"Alright, alright, I was wrong this time. I won't send you to the Sea of Consciousness next time."
Do you know what that monster was?
Upon hearing Zhang Xuanchen admit his mistake, Xuanjing nodded in satisfaction and replied, "That was Blood Patterned Cracked Face Monster. The one just now was roughly at the late stage of Qi Refining."
It's normal for me to get smashed by your punch.
"How could this be? There's not even Spiritual Qi here, how could it have cultivated to the late stage of Qi Refining?"
"Who said they need to absorb Spiritual Qi to increase their strength?" Xuanjing said, pointing at Zhang Xuanchen's nose with his hands on his hips.
Zhang Xuanchen shrank back and said embarrassedly:
"Haha, go on, go on."
Xuanjing glanced at Zhang Xuanchen speechlessly and continued, "This Blood Patterned Cracked Face Monster increases its strength by devouring its own kind. Devouring other living beings has no effect on it, so it doesn't need Spiritual Qi at all."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Xuanchen was shocked. "No, isn't this a bit too heaven-defying?"
Doesn't that mean there are absolutely no bottlenecks?
Could there be Nascent Soul level Rift-Faced Monster here?
Xuanjing thought for a moment and then said, "It's probably not very likely. These kinds of monsters are extremely sensitive to their own kind."
If you encounter someone weaker than yourself, attack; if you encounter someone stronger, run away.
Furthermore, it will not actively attack other living beings when it is not hungry.
Otherwise, that guy wouldn't have stared at you for so long without attacking.
So, I was the one who indiscriminately killed innocent people just now?
I don't think so.
After all, it almost scared me to death just now, so there's nothing wrong with me punching it to pieces."
After calming himself down, Zhang Xuanchen cautiously headed towards the coordinates in his mind.
It was pitch black here, so we didn't walk very fast.
They encountered many strange creatures along the way, but none of them possessed any cultivation.
After all, not everything has the talent of the Blood Patterned Cracked Face Monster.
If it weren't for the fact that this monster could only advance by consuming its own kind, Zhang Xuanchen would have wanted to capture one alive and raise it.
You can definitely train an invincible subordinate!
What a pity.
As time went on, Zhang Xuanchen encountered another Blood Patterned Cracked Face Monster.
Roar!
The moment it saw Zhang Xuanchen, it lunged at him menacingly.
"Brother Chen, the strength on this side is roughly comparable to the Foundation Establishment Early Stage."
"OK."
Zhang Xuanchen responded, drew the Dragon Abyss Sword, and slashed with it!
Sizzle!
The face-splitter was cut in half at the waist, but it was not completely dead. Its body continued to writhe on the ground, and it even roared at Zhang Xuanchen.
"This thing doesn't have anything good on it. Let's get out of here, or its blood will attract other Rift-faced Monsters and cause trouble."
"Good."
After replying with a message, Zhang Xuanchen quickly left the scene of the crime.
Continue moving forward according to the coordinates.
The road, which was initially flat and open, became rugged and difficult to navigate, with more than a dozen forks in the road.
It took seven turns along the fork in the road before we finally arrived at the location of the Secluded Ravine.
The cliffs on both sides of the Secluded Ravine are as sharp as if they were cut by a knife.
The middle section is so narrow that only one person can squeeze through sideways.
Large vines hanging from the cliff face block out most of the sunlight.
Dewdrops dripped from the damp cliff face.
"There's Spiritual Qi here! And the fragrance of various peach blossoms! Brother Chen, I can't believe this is your first time here!" Xuanjing exclaimed, his eyes filled with astonishment as he sensed the Spiritual Qi around him.
Just now, when Zhang Xuanchen was traveling, he was exceptionally decisive. When faced with a fork in the road, he made a choice instantly without any hesitation.
It was as if this was the path we were meant to take.
Zhang Xuanchen gave a wry smile. He was able to navigate through countless detours and successfully arrive here thanks to the coordinates provided by the Immortal Fate Information.
But if nothing unexpected happens, an incredibly lucky guy will also find this place a day and a half later.
This kind of the Unseen luck is truly extraordinary.
Fortunately, I arrived first.
This fortuitous opportunity is mine!
"Let's go see what good stuff we can find here!"
Following the directions, Zhang Xuanchen walked upstream along the Secluded Ravine for three miles, and then saw a faint light emerging from behind a large rock.
Without hesitation, Zhang Xuanchen pushed the stone aside, revealing a simple and unadorned Xiao Shi in the rock.
It's just big enough for one person to walk in.
Zhang Xuanchen stepped inside and returned the stone to its original position, blocking out the sliver of light.
Let's see if we can stop that lucky guy.
The moment I stepped into the crevice, my mind went completely blank.
Consciousness returns to the body.
What comes into view is a peach orchard.
Ten thousand peach trees are arranged in a pleasing, staggered pattern, their petals a mix of pink and white, fluttering down in the gentle breeze.
Amidst the swirling mists of the forest, Zhang Xuanchen took a deep breath, feeling a wave of refreshing coolness wash over him!
Every tree was laden with plump, round peaches.
There are all sorts of types.
More than a thousand brown-furred monkeys roamed among the peach trees. They were agile, leaping back and forth on the branches, picking a peach, taking a bite, and throwing it away. They were not afraid when Zhang Xuanchen suddenly arrived.
He just tilted his head and looked at it curiously.
Some of the bolder ones even jumped down from the trees and circled around Zhang Xuanchen.
Zhang Xuanchen sensed the cultivation levels of these monkeys.
Good heavens! Some of the lower-level cultivators have reached the Qi Refining Middle Stage, while the leaders, who have the highest cultivation levels, have all reached the Foundation Establishment Peak!
If you upset them, you'll definitely get scratched to death!
"Brother Chen, the Spiritual Qi concentration here is comparable to Fourth-stage Spirit Vein, and those peach trees are extraordinary too!"
Those few peach trees deep in the peach grove were all Third-grade Top-tier!
No, that's...
Before Zhang Xuanjing could finish speaking, a clear and melodious voice rang out.
"Little Gold, hurry! We've finally caught the outsider! Don't let him get away!"
Whether we can leave this awful place depends on him!
Charge!
As soon as the voice fell, Zhang Xuanchen saw a head covered in golden fur with a pair of eyes that looked like molten gold.
Standing approximately 1.6 meters tall, with strong and agile limbs and a crimson-gold Spirit Veins on its forehead, the exceptionally handsome golden-haired monkey charged towards him.
Behind it followed a sweet and lovely girl in a light green gauze dress, carrying a spirit hoe that was more than two meters long.
The hoe was completely mismatched with her petite figure, creating a stark contrast.
"Little Gold! Little Gold! Wait for me!"
Can you please not be in such a hurry!
What if I scare them?
