PDLP Chapter 116 Sakiyama Pass
Chapter 116 Sakiyama Pass
Both of these treasure chests are thanks to the efforts of the Rat Long Life during this period.
The loot obtained is a [Disposable Training Dummy] and a [Secondary Copyer].
Looking at the two spoils of war, Chen Xu did not hesitate and immediately made another [disposable training dummy].
Right now is the time when clones are urgently needed. With these two disposable training dummies, Chen Xu can send clones to Qishan again.
……
Deep within the Qishan Mountains, a thin, frail cultivator suddenly stepped out from a spatial rift.
It was Chen Xu who sent out a clone with altered appearance.
As soon as he landed, the [Void Rat Path] behind him quickly healed.
Then Chen Xu used his divine sense to investigate carefully.
After confirming that there was no immediate threat in the surrounding area, he immediately took out the map and headed towards the Yunzhou Pass.
Based on the map, even if he travels at full speed, it will take him about half a month to reach the border.
However, ahead lies the most dangerous core area of Qishan.
There are quite a few second-tier powerful demons entrenched there, so it will probably take a lot of time.
Sure enough, on the fifth day of the journey, a dark green poisonous miasma appeared ahead, and the visible area shrank drastically.
What's more troublesome is that this poisonous miasma seems to contain some kind of strange disruptive power.
Even Chen Xuyuan's divine sense, which far surpassed that of his peers, was greatly suppressed, and his detection range was sharply reduced.
However, these poisonous miasmas posed no real threat to him.
What truly made Chen Xu feel like he was facing a formidable enemy was the mysterious monster lurking within the poisonous miasma.
Not long after he stepped into this area, he felt a cold gaze lock onto him.
With his divine sense currently limited, he could only vaguely perceive the threat, but could not accurately pinpoint its location.
Just then, a faint rustling sound came from behind.
Chen Xu's pupils contracted sharply, and his fighting instincts drove him to turn around at the critical moment.
At the same time, he activated a second-tier defensive talisman, and a thick, earth-yellow light shield instantly enveloped him.
"hiss!!"
Accompanied by a sharp screech, a massive shadow tore through the poisonous miasma, bringing with it a stench that swept over us.
It was a centipede demon nearly five meters long, its late-stage Foundation Establishment demonic energy erupting without reservation.
Seeing this, Chen Xu simultaneously pressed his two fingers together while circulating the "Qingyuan Technique".
He unleashed a focused stab at the centipede demon, intending to kill it in one blow.
However, the centipede demon's head armor emitted a faint light, completely negating the power of the Concentration Strike.
Seeing this, his expression changed, and he was inwardly astonished:
"It can completely withstand attacks on the soul?!"
The centipede demon's carapace was not only exceptionally sturdy, but it also naturally suppressed divine soul techniques, which was completely beyond his expectations.
This is a problem now, because his clone doesn't have a weapon as deadly as the First Holy Spear.
His most proficient technique, "Thousand Swords Technique," owes much of its core destructive power to the power of his soul.
Even the "Insidious Poison Palm" technique would likely struggle to unleash its full power against this poisonous creature.
Thinking of this, Chen Xu no longer hesitated and directly manipulated hundreds of second-tier talismans into an array to attack the centipede demon.
However, this centipede demon not only had amazing defense, but was also incredibly agile.
It dodged most of the talismans with incredible speed.
The few that do manage to hit it only leave shallow marks on its hard shell, unable to cause any effective damage.
Chen Xu's expression was serious as he manipulated the rune array to pursue the enemy while secretly reflecting on his actions.
I'm still relying too much on attacks that target the soul.
When encountering a monster that can completely resist damage to the soul, the means of attack become extremely limited.
Exclusive! An exclusive interview with Durian, known for his bubbly writing style, and behind-the-scenes stories of creating "Proving Immortality Through Hextech Runes," available only to Cola Novels.
It seems I need to quickly learn some techniques for killing and destruction.
Furthermore, even the basic technique "Shadow Step" is becoming insufficient against opponents in the late Foundation Establishment stage; a higher-level technique is needed...
Then, a fierce glint flashed in Chen Xu's eyes, and he immediately equipped the [Ghost Rope's Berserker Blade].
Then, he retrieved the talisman, flipped his hand to take out a second-tier talisman, and began to stack attack speed.
At first, the centipede demon was able to maneuver around thanks to its tough shell and agile speed.
But soon, it sensed that something was wrong.
The sword energy unleashed by the opponent was getting faster and denser!
"Sizzle!"
An extremely fast sword light finally broke through the centipede demon's defenses, striking a joint in its carapace.
The hard shell cracked instantly, and dark green liquid splattered out.
With a flaw revealed, the centipede demon was no longer a threat.
He died by Chen Xu's sword in less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.
Chen Xu looked at the enormous remains of the centipede demon and skillfully began to dissect it.
He first cut open its head and took out a demon core.
Then they removed the venom sac located behind the centipede's mouthparts, and pried it off completely along with its huge fangs.
Second-tier demonic beasts are treasures from head to toe; even the shell of this centipede demon can be used to make some armor.
However, due to Chen Xu's previous attacks, most of the centipede's carapace had already shattered, making it unsellable.
After putting away his spoils, Chen Xu continued to venture deeper into the core area of Qishan.
Along the way, he encountered several more attacks from Foundation Establishment level demonic beasts.
……
Finally, half a month later, Chen Xu crossed that oppressive, poisonous miasma area.
He extended his divine sense forward, and the scene within twenty-five miles was clearly imprinted in his mind.
They soon discovered the pass more than fifteen miles away.
At the pass, five powerful auras were stationed, all possessing cultivation levels at the late Foundation Establishment stage.
Seeing this, Chen Xu breathed a sigh of relief.
With only five late-stage Foundation Establishment level guards, passing through the checkpoint should be a piece of cake for me.
Immediately, he took out the Moon-Hidden Gauze from his storage bag and draped it over his body.
In an instant, Chen Xu's figure became blurry and transparent, perfectly blending into the surrounding environment.
He concealed his presence and quickly approached one of the guards who was relatively far from his companions.
When they were about 100 meters away, the guard noticed something was wrong and looked in Chen Xu's direction.
Seeing this, Chen Xu's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he instantly activated the Thousand Swords Technique.
Dozens of sharp sword shadows merged into one and thrust out fiercely.
The guards, in their haste, only had time to gather a little protective spiritual light, and crossed their arms in an attempt to block.
However, the sword shadow was extremely fast and cunning, instantly piercing his left abdomen.
The cultivator's body trembled violently, and blood gushed out from his waist.
"Enemy attack!" he roared, clearly severely injured and unsteady on his feet.
The other four guards reacted extremely quickly, transforming into four streaks of light almost the instant they were alerted, and attacked Chen Xu in a coordinated manner.
"You audacious madman! How dare you force your way through Qishan Pass!" The leading guard, his beard and hair bristling, shouted angrily.
"A mere Foundation Establishment stage junior dares to act so arrogantly, relying on concealment magic and sneak attacks? He's truly courting death!"
Another guard stared at Chen Xu, his tone filled with disdain and anger.
At this moment, the heavily injured guard's wounds healed rapidly, and together with the other four, they blocked Chen Xu's escape route.
