Chapter 53: Is This Girl Naturally Hunted by Demon Beasts?
Putting the box back into the spatial ring, Meng Changqing stood up and took out a map.
With his strength now reaching the Sea Cleaving Realm, he could start clearing the chance nodes.
To be honest, he had wasted a lot of time. Some chance nodes were probably already taken by others.
Although the Second-Level Peak Demon Beasts were strong, they were not unbeatable.
Even ordinary inner disciples, with more people, should be able to kill them when working together.
It was just a matter of the final resource allocation.
With time running out, Meng Changqing didn’t plan to go to the shallow red chance nodes anymore.
His only goal now was the deep red chance nodes.
The resources they possessed were undoubtedly necessary for the Sea Cleaving Realm.
Meng Changqing counted them and found that there were ten deep red chance nodes in total, located relatively close to each other in the center of the map.
Additionally, Meng Changqing also noticed that among these ten, one was a special shade of red, far surpassing the deep red ones.
It was situated right in the center of the map, standing out among the rest.
“Dark red chance node, huh?” Meng Changqing gave it a name.
It seemed to be more powerful than the deep red chance nodes, but he didn’t dwell on it.
Eating his meal bite by bite, he planned to clear the deep red chance nodes as soon as possible.
Meng Changqing wasn’t too worried about the deep red chance nodes.
Starting from the shallow red ones, it was inevitable that the ones guarding the deep red ones would be Third-Level Demon Beasts.
This level of Demon Beast couldn’t be dealt with by those in the Aperture Connecting Realm, no matter how many there were.
“Still have to hurry,” Meng Changqing said as he hurried forward.
What if someone else, like him, broke through to the Sea Cleaving Realm?
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The earth shook, and the mountains swayed. In a vast canyon, demonic energy billowed as a gigantic Demon Beast, hundreds of meters long, rampaged furiously.
Ahead of it, a slender figure was frantically fleeing.
Though only in the Aperture Connecting Realm, her speed was extremely fast, causing the Third-Level Demon Beast chasing behind her to be unable to catch up for a while.
“Master, it seems we’ve stirred up a hornet’s nest!
“This is a Third-Level Demon Beast!
“If it catches up, I’ll be dead!”
The figure was none other than Bai Suxi.
At this moment, her face was pale, but her eyes were filled with excitement.
She held in her arms a clump of azure-colored spiritual herbs, with nine leaves and radiating colorful light.
It looked extraordinary.
“Indeed, the greater the risk, the greater the reward. This is the Nine-Leaf Blue Spirit Grass, similar to the Elemental Spirit Grass you obtained before. Both are non-toxic spiritual herbs that can be consumed directly without the need for alchemy or detoxification,” an ancient voice sounded from her ring.
“However, what about the big guy behind me? I can’t shake it off no matter what,” Bai Suxi said, feeling somewhat distressed.
With her speed, she certainly couldn’t compare to a Third-Level Demon Beast.
The main reason she could hold on was the help of her master’s spirit power.
Unfortunately, she had yet to find anything to increase her spirit power, limiting her master’s effectiveness.
“Keep running. If necessary, I will take action,” the voice replied.
“Master…” Bai Suxi’s eyes dimmed.
She knew that if her master exerted all her power, her spirit power would definitely be exhausted, and she would have to sleep again.
“But it’s just sleep. After enduring so many years, sleeping for a while longer won’t matter. You can find something to increase your spirit power in the future,” the voice softened.
Although a mighty expert in the demonic path, after spending so much time with this girl, there were changes that even she herself was unaware of.
Roar!
The Third-Level Demon Beast, unable to catch up with the small human, suddenly became furious.
Its flesh trembled, and ripples spread out.
Surging demonic energy transformed into dozens of wind blades, shooting towards Bai Suxi.
“Quick, dodge! This Demon Beast is using its talent!” a voice hastily reminded.
Bai Suxi’s pretty face changed slightly as she began to dodge.
Her blood and qi were exceptionally vigorous.
If it were someone else, under such intense running, they would have long been exhausted. Yet she seemed to be quite energetic.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The wind blades continuously slashed at the spots she had stepped on, leaving deep marks. For a moment, dust and sand filled the air.
“It’s actually a Third-Level Demon Beast.” On a nearby ancient tree, a slender figure appeared.
It was Meng Changqing.
He happened to pass by and felt the demonic energy, so he came to take a look.
Demonic energy was equivalent to demonic power, similar to the true qi of humans.
“The nearest deep red chance node is also dozens of miles away.
“What has this person done to make a Third-Level Demon Beast chase after them for so long?” Meng Changqing was somewhat surprised.
At the same time, he looked towards the dust and sand.
Whoosh!
A figure leaped out of the dust and sand.
Agile in movement and extremely fast, it constantly dodged the wind blades attacking from behind.
“What’s this?” Meng Changqing was suddenly stunned.
Because he found that this small figure was somewhat familiar.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Bai Suxi!
“Wow, this girl seems to be naturally chased by Demon Beasts?” Meng Changqing chuckled involuntarily.
He remembered the first time he encountered Bai Suxi, she was also being chased by Demon Beasts.
The scene was quite familiar.
