Chapter 57 9 Tailed Bikun Beast
"Monkey, you're incredibly lucky! Not only did you survive falling into such a deep cave, but you also stumbled upon that monster egg by accident!"
"What's the use? I haven't even had a chance to warm up my eggs yet, and Boss Qiao and the Bai family are already charging down. Sigh~ I guess I'm just not destined for this kind of luck!"
The cultivator called Monkey sighed.
He was thin and small, with a pointed snout and monkey-like cheeks. He would scratch his chin from time to time while speaking, and his demeanor was no different from that of a monkey wearing clothes.
"Hehe, with your cultivation level, even if an opportunity falls into your hands, you can't keep it. Don't think too much about it. There was some commotion over there with Old Qi just now. There might still be members of the Bai family outside. Let's go take a look."
The cultivator next to him chuckled, happier to see his companion fail to obtain the opportunity than if he himself had.
As they spoke, the two had already approached the monster's corpse.
"Damn it, that old bastard Bai Changnian really did have a backup plan. If it weren't for the boss's Thunderstorm Talisman, we might have lost a few more people!"
As the cultivator spoke, he kicked the corpse of the water-avoiding rhinoceros hard. He had almost been killed by this suddenly appearing demonic rhinoceros, and he was still a little scared when he thought about it.
But who knew that his foot had just landed?
"Whoosh!"
A blinding blue light suddenly shot out from behind the monster's corpse.
"not good!"
The monkey's expression changed, as if it had rehearsed this many times, and it pulled its companion in front of it.
"You monkey!!"
Pfft!
The tip of the Azure Pattern Spear, gleaming with a cold light, pierced through the man's chest in an instant, and violent spiritual energy roared out, shredding his internal organs to pieces.
The cultivator called Monkey, on the other hand, seemed to slip away unnoticed. After using his companion to block the fatal blow, he immediately activated a lightness talisman, gathered spiritual energy in his legs, and fled in panic!
No wonder his nickname is Monkey.
Chen Ye raised an eyebrow in surprise. He had intended to deal with the two quickly, but he hadn't expected that this cultivator called Monkey would react so quickly.
However, the deeper one goes into the cave, the more likely one is to encounter Qiao Guanjiang's men. It's only a matter of time before one is discovered, so there's no need to hide any longer.
With his mind made up, Chen Ye leaped up, stepped over the demon corpse, and used his movement technique to chase after the monkey.
"Boss Joe, help!"
The monkey ran away while shouting for help. Suddenly, it felt a gust of wind behind it. When it turned around, it was terrified.
The fierce god who had just killed his companion with a single blow was now less than a few feet away from him in an instant!
Although the monkey sensed that Chen Ye's cultivation level was probably not much different from its own, the swift and powerful attack just now was definitely not something an ordinary sixth-level Spirit Condensation cultivator could unleash.
The monkey earned this nickname because of its ability to flee immediately when things go wrong.
Seeing Chen Ye's figure rapidly approaching, he gritted his teeth, took out a palm-sized yellow shield from his bosom, spat out a mouthful of blood essence, and then flung it behind him without looking back.
The yellow shield swelled in the wind, transforming into a square stone wall that blocked Chen Ye's path.
"A high-grade defensive magic weapon?" Chen Ye frowned.
"No, it's a damaged defensive magical artifact!"
Chen Ye keenly noticed a finger-width crack on one corner of the shield.
Once a magical artifact is damaged, its power will decrease significantly, especially defensive magical artifacts.
Chen Ye channeled his spiritual energy into the Crimson Feather Sword, causing the sword to shine brightly and its sword energy to surge like boiling magma. He then slashed at the crevice with his sword!
Click!
The shield shattered instantly, turning into sharp fragments that flew outwards.
Pfft! Pfft!
The monkey's back and thighs were cut and bleeding from the exploding shards, but he dared not slow down in the slightest, desperately fleeing towards the underground cave ahead in a disheveled state.
As long as he gets there, with Boss Qiao there, he'll survive!
Meanwhile, inside a vast underground cavern.
wow~~
The dark, ink-like seawater surged and crashed against the cave. Standing inside, one could hear the sound of the waves crashing and even smell the salty, fishy odor of the seawater, but not a single drop of seawater could be seen entering.
This is because there is a thin, light blue barrier outside the cave that blocks all the seawater from entering!
On the stone platform at the very center of the cave, there was a giant monster egg that was more than half the height of a person.
On the eggshell, which was as smooth as jade, there were intertwined and swirling patterns of brilliant blue, exuding a strange and colorful beauty.
A Tier 3 demonic beast, the Nine-Tailed Azure Kun Beast Egg!
The Nine-Tailed Jade Kun Beast is a strange beast with the bloodline of a true demon. Its cubs can easily break through to the third rank once they reach adulthood, and with careful care, it is not impossible for them to advance to the fourth rank of demon beast!
Unfortunately... Bai Changnian sighed inwardly as he looked at the monster egg in front of him.
Although they found the monster egg by following the family records and the secret techniques passed down through generations, they were blocked here by others.
At this moment, the remaining dozen or so members of the Bai family stood together around the monster egg. All of them were injured, with Bai Yunheng being the most seriously injured.
His legs were severed at the knees with a sharp weapon. Although the bleeding stopped and the severed legs were recovered, he was essentially crippled.
Even if the Bai family manages to avoid extermination and have his leg reattached, Bai Yunheng will have no chance of breaking through the secret treasure in the future.
Through a layer of colorful array protective shield, Qiao Guanjiang sized up the Bai family members with a gloomy expression.
He was just a hair's breadth away from succeeding in snatching that third-tier demon beast egg, but who could have imagined that Bai Changnian would actually unleash a top-grade defensive formation at the crucial moment, protecting all the remaining clansmen and the demon beast egg.
This formation is called the Five-Colored Flowing Light Formation. Although it is of the highest grade, its coverage area is only a hundred or so feet. However, it is precisely because of this that this formation can be quickly set up using the formation plate.
However, this formation also has its drawbacks. It can only be maintained for a maximum of twelve hours, and it is impossible to replenish spiritual energy using spirit stones.
Once twelve hours have passed, the formation will naturally collapse.
"It's just one day? I can wait!"
Qiao Guanjiang sneered inwardly. Although he still had three Thunder Explosion Talismans left, he couldn't use them to break the magic array. Otherwise, if the Bai family had any other tricks up their sleeve, wouldn't he have no more trump cards to use?
"Huh? What's that noise?"
Just then, Qiao Guanjiang suddenly heard a mournful cry coming from outside the cave.
"Boss, it looks like a monkey. He's being chased."
One of his men glanced outside a few times and quickly replied.
At this moment, in addition to a dozen or so members of the Bai family, there were also more than twenty rogue cultivators led by Qiao Guanjiang inside the cave.
The battle just now resulted in more than ten deaths on each side, but the number of rogue cultivators was much greater, with almost twice as many survivors as the Bai family.
As the two were talking, the monkey finally escaped to the cave entrance. He was covered in wounds, and bloodstains almost stained his robe. As soon as he entered the cave, he cried out in alarm.
"Boss, save me..."
Pfft~~
Before he could finish speaking, a sharp, crimson blade pierced through his forehead from the back of his head!
