Chapter 227 Dealing with the Beast Tide
The phantom figure disappeared without a trace in an instant, and when it stabbed just now, there was no sense of substance at all.
If nothing unexpected happened, what he stabbed was a clone, not the real body of the phantom.
Chen Li looked around and found that he was the only one in the arena. He didn't know where the phantom had gone.
It was just that feeling of danger that reminded Chen Li all the time that the guy was nearby.
He slowly closed his eyes and began to feel the situation around him, trying to find the location of the phantom.
The divine consciousness continued to spread until it covered the entire arena, but there was still no trace of that guy, as if he no longer existed.
But he did not relax because he didn't know whether Phantom would have other tricks, so he had to be on guard.
The spiritual energy continued to condense into flying swords, constantly flying back and forth around, with the purpose of forcing him out.
Even if he cannot be forced out, he can still make Chen Li unable to attack by the opponent. This is the best option.
Chen Li didn't believe that this phantom could remain hidden forever. It would come out sooner or later.
At that moment, Chen Li felt a dangerous breath coming from behind him, which made him open his eyes suddenly.
He turned around quickly, gathered all the spiritual energy of the flying sword, and flew in that direction.
Bang! A long sword was hit by the spiritual flying sword, but there was no trace of the phantom, which made Chen Li frown.
Damn it, I was deceived by that guy. I'm afraid he just wanted to lure the tiger away from the mountain!
Chen Li quickly turned around and looked at a certain location, and sure enough, this guy had already rushed in front of him.
Boom! Chen Li's heart was instantly hit by the phantom's palm, and the feeling of death was infinitely magnified, making him completely stunned.
When he came to his senses again, he found himself standing on the edge of the ring.
As for the phantom, when it saw Chen Li recover, it did not continue to move, but disappeared.
The other party has disappeared, making Chen Li feel helpless. It seems that there is still no way to deal with him.
Knock, knock, knock. At this time, Chen Li felt someone knocking on the door. If nothing unexpected happened, it must be those guys who were in trouble.
He regained his consciousness, and when he opened his eyes , his awareness had returned to his body.
When I walked to the door and looked, I found that Cang Heng and Lin Feng were already waiting there. They looked like they had something to say.
"Elder Chen, Elder Long wants to ask you to come over for something." Cang Heng said to Chen Li in a hurry.
Seeing the two of them looking so serious, Chen Li couldn't help but frown. Could it be that something important had happened?
He didn't think much about it and disappeared immediately, leaving the two men in shock.
Chen Li’s speed was indeed very fast. Before they even noticed what had happened, he had already disappeared.
Not long after, Chen Li appeared at Long Shenghong's door. After seeing Chen Li, the guards around him quickly made way for him.
It can be seen that Long Shenghong has already instructed these people not to stop them.
After entering the house, Chen Li found that Long Shenghong was already waiting for him in the main hall.
Chen Li looked at Long Shenghong's serious expression and asked, "I wonder if Elder Long wants to talk to me about something?"
"Elder Chen, I have something I would like to ask you for help. If you are willing to help, our Lingxiao Sect is willing to support your Nanli Sect." Long Shenghong said to Chen Li very solemnly.
Chen Li was somewhat surprised to hear Long Shenghong say this. He did not expect that he would actually say that Lingxiao Sect gave support to Nanli Sect.
In other words, this was not Long Shenghong's own decision, but the decision of the leader of Lingxiao Sect.
If Nanli Sect could gain the help of Lingxiao Sect, Nanli Sect would definitely see a significant improvement.
"Since Elder Long has said so, I would like to hear what you need my help with." Chen Li found a place to sit down and said to Long Shenghong.
In fact, he was a little worried in his heart. Even Lingxiao Sect couldn't handle it, so how could he, a mere person, handle it?
Long Shenghong said, "We found a lot of Jindan-stage monsters staying at a location three thousand miles away from Tianhong City. Their existence has threatened the status of Tianhong City."
"Do you mean that you want me to kill those monsters?" Chen Li looked at Long Shenghong and asked.
Long Shenghong nodded, "Yes, because it will take at least three days for the cultivators from my Lingxiao Sect to get here."
As for those cultivators in the Nascent Soul stage, it is impossible for them to come here so quickly. After all, they are very busy.
In addition, he needs to guard Tianhong City, and the only one who can do this right now is Chen Li.
Chen Li stroked his chin and asked again: "If that's the case, then I really want to know the number of those monsters and their cultivation levels?"
"The number is probably around two to three hundred. The youngest are in the early Jindan stage, and more than a dozen of them have reached the late Jindan stage." Long Shenghong said solemnly.
Such a situation has already reached the level of a beast tide. If it cannot be cleared up, it will sooner or later pose a threat to Tianhong City.
Long Shenghong did not know this matter himself, but heard it through the elders of the sect.
Because no one from their Lingxiao Sect could go over to help, they had to let Chen Li handle the matter.
With Chen Li's level of cultivation, although it would be difficult to deal with so many monsters, it shouldn't be a problem.
Their Lingxiao Sect is willing to help the Nanli Sect in exchange, so Chen Li should not choose to refuse.
"In that case, I agree to this matter. I hope Elder Long will not forget what you said." After thinking it over again and again, Chen Li said this.
Long Shenghong nodded, "This matter was decided by me, the leader of Lingxiao Sect, and I will naturally not break my promise."
"Then I hope you won't restrict me next. Tell me the location and I'll go right away." Chen Li stood up and said very solemnly.
The reason for doing this is not only because they are willing to help Nanli Sect, but also because Chen Li needs the inner alchemy of those monsters.
He naturally looked down upon the monster beasts in the early and middle stages of the Golden Core Realm, but the inner cores of more than a dozen monster beasts in the late Golden Core Realm were extremely important.
Long Shenghong took out the map, pointed to a location and said, "This is the place. Elder Chen, please be careful."
"Then I'll take my leave." After saying that, Chen Li disappeared from this place without any hesitation.
Although Chen Li hopes to stay here for a while longer, there are so many monsters waiting for him now, so he naturally needs to deal with them properly.
As for Long Shenghong, after seeing Chen Li leave here, he couldn't help but sigh, "I just hope he can come back alive."
"Elder Long, please stop saying this hypocritically." At this time, a middle-aged cultivator came from not far away and said coldly.
Long Shenghong looked at the middle-aged cultivator in front of him and snorted coldly, "I just don't want a young cultivator to die."
"Since you don't want him to die, then why don't you tell him that there is a Nascent Soul stage monster there?" asked the middle-aged cultivator.
This sentence made Long Shenghong not know what to say. He was about to open his mouth, but swallowed it back and sighed.
This is also the reason why they are unwilling to go there, because there are not only Jindan-stage monsters, but also a Yuanying-stage monster.
The Nascent Soul elders of Lingxiao Sect would not dare to face so many monsters alone, not to mention that there were monsters at the same level as themselves.
If they really went there, they would definitely die there.
Now that a monk from another sect has finally appeared, they certainly need this person to play as a vanguard.
As for Chen Li, although he didn't know that these people had concealed the existence of Nascent Soul Stage monsters, when he got there and discovered the Nascent Soul Stage monsters, he would definitely be very happy.
The inner elixir of a Yuanying stage demon beast can be equivalent to the inner elixir of many Jindan late stage demon beasts.
After he left the city, he hid his face, instantly displayed his skills, and quickly rushed to the designated location.
He was at the edge of the city one second and disappeared without a trace the next.
Half a day later, Chen Li was standing on the edge of a mountain that looked very hidden.
He used his spiritual sense to investigate and found that there were indeed quite a few monsters gathered here, and each one looked very strange.
They stood together in an orderly manner, each of them exuding a bloodthirsty aura, but none of them chose to act.
This is really a bit weird. It feels like the same frost wolf that I saw before.
These monsters have clearly posed a threat and have lost their minds. They are completely different from those monsters from the Yunjian Sect.
In that case, there is no need for me to hold back.
With a strong smile on his face, he waved his right hand and a black sword immediately appeared in his hand.
Spiritual energy continued to gather, and the surrounding monsters also sensed something unusual and looked towards one location.
Even if they saw it, what could they do? With the cultivation level of these monsters, they had no way to resist.
A long sword slashed out a sharp sword energy, instantly killing many monsters.
When the monsters saw their companions being killed, they rushed towards Chen Li without any hesitation.
"You don't know your own limitations." Chen Li snorted coldly, and his right hand fingers drew several sword energies that hit the hearts of these monsters on the spot.
Even if the monster's cultivation level is at the Jindan stage, it has no way to withstand Chen Li's attack.
Feeling that these monsters were gathering more and more, Chen Li knew very well that they had to be caught in one fell swoop.
He spread his aura outwards, and a terrifying pressure made the monsters dare not move, as if they had seen something terrifying.
There were golden lightning bolts falling around Chen Li. He focused his eyes and lightning flashed up, forming a thunder prison that killed all the monsters.
Looking at the completely dead corpses of the monsters, Chen Li's mind moved, and the inner cores of these monsters floated out of their bodies and flew into the space ring.
After dealing with these, he put the corpses of the monsters into the vault.
To be honest, this was handled a little too smoothly, and it always felt odd to see them all so organized.
He glanced around and it seemed that there was something that had not been cleaned up, which was really a bit strange.
But there is no trace of monsters around. Could it be my illusion?
Chen Like didn't believe that he had an illusion, so he immediately launched an attack in a strange direction.
The sword energy was like a rainbow and flew past in just an instant.
There was a huge commotion in the bushes, which made Chen Li frown. It seemed that there might be some hidden monster there.
But Chen Li did not rush over. Instead, he took a few steps back with fear in his eyes.
The opponent must be no simple person, as he was able to withstand such a powerful attack without even getting hurt.
A demon beast in the Nascent Soul stage? It seems that my luck is quite good to find it here.
In his excitement, a series of figures suddenly appeared in Chen Li's sight, which startled him.
I didn't expect this guy to take action so quickly. I really underestimated it.
