Chapter 247 The Culprit
There are only Jindan-stage monsters and no Yuanying-stage monsters to hold him back. All of these guys will die, and there will be no room for maneuver.
Chen Li slashed with his right hand and a stream of sword energy rushed out. In just a moment, he killed many of the monsters.
The monsters showed no sign of fear. Instead, they rushed over at a very fast speed, intending to devour Chen Li.
After all, they are just a bunch of useless trash. Chen Li looked at these monsters coldly, his eyes filled with indifference.
Since these guys are not afraid of death, why should I let them go? The long sword kept waving like a phantom, making all the monsters rushing over fall to the ground.
But that feeling of lack of substance always made Chen Li feel weird, as if he was cutting the air.
This is really a bit wrong. If only one monster is like this, then maybe it was just killed too quickly, causing a certain illusion.
But so many monsters are the same, which makes Chen Li feel that this is not his illusion.
In an instant, an inexplicable sense of danger came from behind him, making him turn around quickly to take a look.
The moment he looked behind him, he found nothing there, as if he had perceived it wrongly.
Something was wrong. This was definitely not a wrong perception, because the terrible sense of danger made the hairs on his body stand on end.
It seems like something is watching me, otherwise this situation would never happen. I must find a way to find the guy hiding in the dark.
Chen Li didn't intend to think too much. Instead, he used his spiritual sense to explore the surroundings, but found that there was nothing around.
Not to mention the monsters hiding in the dark, even in the open, no breath of monsters can be sensed.
Just as he was sensing the breath of the monster, a figure suddenly attacked from behind him, with a speed that Chen Li was caught off guard.
Bang! The opponent's body hit Chen Li hard, causing him to stagger forward a few steps.
Chen Li quickly turned around and killed the monster. His brows furrowed involuntarily. It seemed that this was really troublesome.
Because the monsters that were killed just now were miraculously resurrected at this time. Even though their heads were cut off, they were able to slowly stand up and walk towards this side.
Of course Chen Li had never seen such a situation. They had clearly lost their lives, so how could they still move freely?
Since these guys are in such a condition, let's kill them again, otherwise there will definitely be big problems.
Thinking in his heart, Chen Li rushed into the group of monsters again without any hesitation.
However, these monsters became much more agile than before. Every time Chen Li was about to attack them, these guys actually dodged instantly.
This kind of thing was naturally something Chen Li had not expected. It seemed that there was really something wrong with these guys.
While he was still confused, a tall figure suddenly stood behind Chen Li and grabbed his head.
A strong spiritual energy rushed straight to the top of his head, making his face look ferocious. Damn it, why was he caught at this time?
His consciousness became a little fuzzy, but he still had no intention of giving up. Instead, he continued to use his spiritual energy to resist.
For some reason, his spiritual energy was unable to resist, and he couldn't even break free from the other party's restraints.
As time passed, Chen Li suddenly discovered that the things in front of him seemed to have changed.
The mad monsters that had attacked him turned into familiar figures at this time. As for the monsters that he had killed, they no longer existed.
"What's going on?" Chen Li looked around, looking very confused.
The monsters standing in front of him were obviously the ones around the giant ape, and they were not mad monsters at all.
A calm voice suddenly came from behind him: "I should be the one asking you this. Why did you suddenly come here and attack us?"
Chen Li turned his head and saw that the one holding his head from behind was a giant ape. It seemed that it was the giant ape that stopped his actions just now.
"I'm not too sure. At that time, I just felt that something was staring at me, and then a large group of crazy monsters appeared." Chen Li answered truthfully.
The giant ape let go of Chen Li's head, and after thinking for a while, he seemed to understand something: "It seems that you have been tricked by that guy."
"Does the senior know something?" Chen Li looked at the giant ape and asked him.
The giant ape nodded. "That's the Illusion Bird. The reason why you are in that state just now is probably because you were tricked by it."
Chen Li was very shocked. The Illusion Bird was not an ordinary monster. It was a monster that was rumored to be able to control illusions.
I heard that an adult monster could reach the late Nascent Soul stage or even the Spirit Transformation stage. It was amazing that such a terrifying monster would actually target me.
If the opponent is really such a powerful monster, why can a giant ape in the early Nascent Soul stage compete with it?
Moreover, the opponent only needs to look at it, which is enough to kill it, but it did not do so. Could it be that it has not reached that level?
"There is no need for you to be afraid, because that guy is not as powerful as the rumors say. His cultivation has been sealed up long ago." The giant ape looked at Chen Li thinking with his head down, and naturally knew what he was thinking.
Chen Li sucked in a breath of cold air. The adult Illusion Bird's cultivation could be sealed. It seemed that the Yunjian Sect was really full of talented people in the past.
He clenched his fists tightly. Now that he was being targeted by such a monster and was being toyed with, he had to kill it to vent his anger.
"It seems that I have to catch it and kill it." Chen Li made up his mind secretly, muttering to himself.
The giant ape remained silent and did not say what he was thinking, because if he said it out loud, it would easily undermine Chen Li's confidence.
The Illusion Bird is not only good at controlling illusions, but is also good at hiding its own body. Even if it stands in front of you, you may not be able to tell that it is the Illusion Bird.
Even though Chen Li had been tricked once, he believed that the Illusion Bird definitely had more than just this one trick.
Fortunately, Chen Li had already dealt with many of the mad monsters around, and every one of them had disappeared, which made things a little easier.
"Let's take a rest for a while. I think it should be more anxious than us." The giant ape looked at Chen Li's uncontrollable emotions and kindly reminded him.
Chen Li nodded, "Okay."
He knew that this kind of thing could not be rushed, so he should first recover his physical strength and spiritual energy, and condense his swordsmanship.
Thinking in his heart, Chen Li turned back to the square, sat cross-legged, and began to practice.
Seeing that Chen Li had entered into a state of meditation so quickly, all the monsters were very surprised. This guy Chen Li was truly a crazy practitioner.
In Chen Li's consciousness, he didn't know when he had been pulled to the center of the ring.
Looking at the black figure in front of him, Chen Li frowned. Why was he pulled in at this time? Did he plan to continue fighting?
The strange thing was that the other party was also sitting cross-legged, and then the spiritual energy from all around poured in, and he was guiding the spiritual energy into his dantian.
Chen Li was somewhat shocked, because he could actually see the eight extraordinary meridians in the black figure's body and the direction of the flow of spiritual energy.
What shocked him even more was that the black figure was actually condensing the sword heart, and he condensed one very quickly.
Chen Li sucked in a breath of cold air. It seemed that this person had already mastered the Cloud Sword Art by heart, otherwise he would never have been able to condense a sword heart so quickly.
Although he was surprised, he did not think too much about it. Instead, he slowly closed his eyes and began to condense the second sword heart according to the opponent's movement trajectory.
Following this method, the sword heart that was originally difficult to condense has begun to take shape.
He was not excited about this, but instead calmed down and condensed the second sword heart bit by bit.
As spiritual energy continued to flow into the Dantian, a golden sword heart gradually formed, causing Chen Li to reveal a deep smile on his face.
I never thought that simply following the other person's rhythm would allow me to condense it so quickly.
This short period of time is enough to equal his more than ten days of practice. It seems that he still needs someone to guide him.
When he opened his eyes, he found that the figure had disappeared, leaving only a line of small words.
"If you concentrate on practicing, when the Cloud Sword Technique is perfected, you will have no rivals at the same level, and you will even be able to fight against opponents above your level." Chen Li muttered to himself, with shock written all over his face.
This is too arrogant. It might be convincing to say that there is no opponent at the same level, but it is impossible to say that one can fight against opponents of higher levels. This must be a joke.
But then he thought, since the other party dared to say so, it must have been verified, and he also had an idea.
The Yun Jian Jue can only be practiced by the Yun Jian Sect's leader and his direct disciples. In other words, the black figure just now was either the Yun Jian Sect's leader or that direct disciple.
Anyone who can become a personal disciple will definitely be the next leader of the Yunjian Sect . Such a strong person is naturally not something Chen Li can refute.
Besides, there is almost no loss in practicing such a mental method. Even if he is invincible in the same realm, it is enough for Chen Li to deal with many people.
Thinking in his heart, Chen Li continued to condense his sword heart according to that method.
The second sword heart took three hours to condense, the third sword heart took three days, and the fourth sword heart took a full ten days.
Even though Chen Li did not feel any hindrance at all, the further he went, the more spiritual energy he required.
But the benefits brought were also very high. Even though he had condensed four sword hearts now, he felt that his strength had increased a lot.
By the time he was refining the fifth sword heart, another half a month had passed, but he had only condensed half of it.
Perhaps it would take at least a month to condense the fifth sword heart.
For a cultivator, a month is just a blink of an eye, so Chen Li has been concentrating on his cultivation.
When he thought he could condense the fifth sword heart, Chen Li suddenly felt a violent vibration in the outside world.
He slowly opened his eyes, looked at the situation around him, and the expression on his face became very ugly.
Not far ahead, a large group of black figures were coming towards this side quickly, and each monster carried a bloodthirsty aura.
"It seems that you have woken up. It's a good time for us to help." The giant ape said solemnly after seeing Chen Li wake up.
Chen Li looked at the monsters that kept attacking him and asked, "What happened? Why are there so many monsters?"
We had eliminated hundreds of monsters before, but now there are still so many monsters appearing. This is really puzzling.
"I'm afraid they have come out in full force. I guess the Illusion Bird can no longer suppress its thoughts." said the giant ape.
Chen Li touched his chin, with a look of astonishment in his eyes. The Illusion Bird was a very patient monster.
What exactly is its purpose that could make even the most restrained monster unable to control itself and want to take action?
Could it be that this guy already has the utmost confidence, so he chooses to rush over? If this is true, then we have to be careful in dealing with it.
At this time, the monsters had already rushed over with great momentum. The monsters standing beside Chen Li did not hesitate at all. They roared and rushed over quickly.
