Chapter 201 First Battle
Because he knew very well that the Yellow Springs Demon Eagle had no combat power in its current state. Instead of improving himself in this place, it would be better to let it follow along.
Although the Yellow Springs Demon Eagle was reluctant to leave Chen Li, when he thought of his own cultivation level, he had no choice but to jump down and fly onto the Demonic Tiger.
"Then I'll leave this guy to you." Chen Li said solemnly.
After all, this is the pet I have raised for such a long time, and I have some feelings for it. Naturally, I can't let anything happen to it.
The Demon Tiger said, "Leave it to us. This little guy will improve his strength in no time."
As it said that, it carried the Yellow Springs Demon Eagle away from this location.
After Chen Li collected some materials, he returned to the location of the Hongmeng Stone and began to practice.
The spiritual energy in the Hongmeng Stone is continuously flowing into his body. The quality of this spiritual energy is really good and is richer than ordinary spiritual energy.
In the next few days, Chen Li has been concentrating on cultivation, but for some reason, the spiritual energy he absorbed was not as much as what the Hongmeng Stone restored.
Moreover, he vaguely felt that his cultivation was gradually improving, and at the same time, some purple energy was brewing in the Hongmeng Stone.
Chen Li was delighted. He never thought that purple energy would appear so quickly.
In this case, there is no need to slack off. We must absorb the purple energy as quickly as possible.
When these monsters saw Chen Li practicing there, they did not choose to approach, but instead slowly moved towards a certain direction.
If nothing unexpected happens, there should be another piece of Hongmeng Stone in that place.
As the purple energy entered his body, Chen Li felt the aura in his body becoming more and more intense, and the bottleneck was shaky, as if it could break at any time.
But he didn't know why. Even though this was the situation, he just couldn't figure it out and had no way to improve.
This is the most difficult part. Although the Qi sea in the body has already condensed into a golden elixir, the most difficult thing is to turn the golden elixir into nothingness and condense a human figure.
If one wants to reach the Nascent Soul stage, one must crush the Golden Elixir and condense it into one's own shadow, thus achieving the Nascent Soul stage.
However, this method is easy to say, but it is very difficult to actually do it.
Chen Li tried several times to move up, but he fell short every time.
Until the purple energy was completely absorbed, although Chen Li's strength improved, he still showed no signs of a breakthrough.
"Roar!" Suddenly, a roar came from not far away, making Chen Li suddenly open his eyes.
He turned his head and looked in a direction not far away. It seemed that the giant ape was calling him.
So Chen Li stood up and rushed to that location without saying a word.
When he flew towards the giant ape, he found that a monster was blocking his way.
It was a spider that looked very large, its body as white as jade, but its eyes were abnormally scarlet.
Chen Li never thought that there would be such a precious and rare monster in this forest.
This is a white jade spider. Every part of its body is a treasure. Even its shell is made of the top-grade material.
Seeing it staring at him, Chen Li could be sure that this guy should be the enemy he would face in his first battle.
At this time, the white jade spider had bared its fangs, and its eight sharp legs were aimed at Chen Li's heart, as if it would attack Chen Li at any time.
Chen Li chuckled, and with a wave of his right hand, he quickly summoned the black sword, "Come on, I'm tired of being alone."
The white jade spider rushed forward without any hesitation. Chen Li immediately stepped back a few steps and drew a streak of sword energy forward.
The sword energy instantly penetrated the body of the white jade spider, and the figure was slowly dissipating like a phantom.
Of course Chen Li knew that this was fake, so he stabbed the sky with his sword immediately.
Bang! The White Jade Spider was stabbed by Chen Li's sword and quickly retreated, staring at Chen Li with a fierce look.
Chen Li stared at the white jade spider, feeling the pain in his palm. It was indeed a monster at the peak of the late Jindan stage. Its defense alone was enough to make his hand hurt.
The figure of the white jade spider disappeared again. Chen Like did not dare to delay and quickly spread his spiritual sense.
Due to the limitations of the secret realm, his spiritual awareness could only spread to a certain distance, but it was enough.
What surprised Chen Li was that he couldn't find the location of the white jade spider. It was as if that guy had evaporated from the face of the earth, without any trace at all.
An unknown sense of danger came from behind him, causing Chen Li to turn his head quickly to look over. However, just as he turned around and had not yet made a move, the sharp spider legs were already placed on his neck.
If he were any closer, Chen Li would be killed instantly.
The white jade spider slowly retracted its attack and walked step by step to a place not far in front of Chen Li.
Watching it strike a pose again, Chen Li realized that if he didn't defeat it, he would have no way of getting through.
"It looks like there's going to be some trouble." Chen Li muttered to himself as he stared at the white jade spider in front of him.
Not only is this guy's defense terrifying, but his attack is also very fast. In addition, his cultivation is so high that if I don't take it seriously, I will never be able to defeat it.
It seems that I have to be more serious, otherwise how can this be considered cultivation?
He took a deep breath, circulated the spiritual energy around his body, and stared at the white jade spider over there.
Whoosh! Chen Li appeared in front of the white jade spider in the blink of an eye and slapped it down with his palm.
The white jade spider quickly resisted, but Chen Li's second sword move had already arrived, making it impossible to defend against.
If it were a human cultivator, he would have been suppressed by this move long ago, but he was facing a white jade spider.
This is a monster with eight legs. It used two of its legs to block Chen Li's first attack, and used another two legs to block the second attack.
Chen Li was stunned. He didn't expect that there was such a defense method. It seemed that the White Jade Spider had fully integrated its advantages.
The other party has already revealed his cards, do you still have to hide them?
So he didn't hesitate at all, an unknown breath was floating rapidly.
In an instant, Chen Li's figure became more and more illusory, and a sword-shaped mark appeared between his eyebrows.
The white jade spider's eyes were constantly observing. Although Chen Li moved very fast, its many eyes could fully capture Chen Li's figure.
When Chen Li appeared at the next stop, the white jade spider had already launched an attack.
It opened its huge mouth and spit out a lot of spider silk, which actually landed on the landing point one step ahead of time.
Chen Li didn't expect that this guy could actually find his foothold, and if he stepped on it now, he would definitely be restrained.
So he mobilized his spiritual energy to form a wall in front of him, and with a sudden kick, he easily avoided the attack.
I had originally planned to end the battle quickly , but now it seems that I may have to fight a protracted war. This guy is definitely not as simple as I thought.
Chen Li looked around and observed the surrounding objects. There were quite a few monsters nearby. Of course, they would not attack because this was a one-on-one competition with Chen Li.
Even the giant ape in the distance was very surprised after seeing Chen Li's actions.
This kid was able to hold out for such a long time under the White Jade Spider. I originally thought he would fail many times.
But it's also good. It's a good opportunity to see Chen Li's background and see how capable this guy is and whether he can help him find that person.
At this time, Chen Li's breathing had become a little rapid. After activating the sword-shaped mark, his spiritual energy was constantly being depleted.
Although the spiritual energy around is very rich, problems will arise sooner or later if the expenditure is not enough to cover the income.
So Chen Li took the initiative to close the sword-shaped mark, and stared at the white jade spider with his eyes.
Lightning flashed all around him and transformed into a flying sword of spiritual energy, which immediately rushed towards the opponent.
The legs of the white jade spider were like sharp blades, and they easily cut off these spiritual flying swords.
Chen Li breathed heavily, beads of sweat the size of beans fell on his forehead, almost making his face turn pale.
Damn it, I have clearly turned off the sword-shaped mark, so why is the spiritual energy in my body still being consumed so quickly?
"That's enough." At this time, a voice came, interrupting their battle.
Chen Li looked at the huge figure not far away and was a little surprised. "Senior, why did you intervene?"
Logically speaking, I haven't defeated the white jade spider yet, so why would the giant ape appear here?
"In fact, this battle was not fair." The giant ape said calmly, "I just asked him to test your strength a little bit, so that other monsters can learn from it."
The White Jade Spider's cultivation level was originally quite high, and it was almost the elite in this forest. If Chen Li were to fight against such an opponent right from the start, he would naturally lose miserably.
Chen Li was stunned, looking at the white jade spider not far away, he seemed to have understood what was going on.
"It seems that its cultivation has reached the half-step Nascent Soul stage." Chen Li said.
The giant ape nodded, "Yes, and the reason why you feel tired is because it can absorb the spiritual energy in other people's bodies."
This time Chen Li finally understood why he was so tired. It was because during the battle, the White Jade Spider had been absorbing his spiritual energy.
This is simply fatal. How could I possibly resist such a terrifying secret technique?
"I know what you are thinking, but you don't need to worry, because its secret method can be broken. As for how to break it, it depends on how you do it." After the giant ape finished speaking, he turned around and left.
After the giant ape left, Chen Li didn't say much, just sat there quietly to rest.
The other monsters left one after another, only the white jade spider stood there, staring at Chen Li.
"What? Are you still planning to bully me?" Chen Li sat there, looking helpless.
However, the white jade spider did not say anything, but just spit out some spider silk and placed it in front of Chen Li.
Looking at the white spider silk in front of him, Chen Li couldn't help but be stunned. He wanted to say something, but found that the white jade spider had left.
Monsters like the white jade spider have long since developed intelligence, and are probably as powerful as the giant ape, and can definitely speak.
I don’t know why, but looking at the White Jade Spider, it seems that it doesn’t like to talk.
Then he took a look at the spider silk on the ground. This was a very huge treasure. The protective gear made from it was definitely top-grade protective gear.
It seems that he has received its favor this time, but even so, he will not hold back in the next battle.
Although I won't be fighting it in the next battle, I will face it again sooner or later, so I must improve and hone my skills as quickly as possible.
So he returned to the location of Hongmeng Stone once again and began to practice.
After returning to Hongmeng Stone, he sat cross-legged and began to absorb the surrounding spiritual energy.
In his mind, he was imagining the battle scene just now. The White Jade Spider was very powerful and he would definitely not be able to deal with it with his own level of cultivation.
But he can learn a variety of skills from this battle and make up for his own shortcomings.
It seems that I still need to continue to improve, otherwise I will not be able to meet the conditions proposed by the giant ape.
At the same time, in the outside world, some changes were taking place.
When the people around saw this, they were all shocked, as if they had seen a scroll of hell, and were so scared that they dared not move.
