Chapter 266 Trial Ladder
Now that the disaster is over, Chen Li does not plan to stay here any longer because he has more important things to do.
Before leaving, he thought he should say goodbye to Hong Feng first, after all, he had received such a great favor from him.
Not long after, Chen Li arrived at the door of Hong Feng's residence. Just as he was about to speak, he saw the door open and Hong Feng walked out.
"Looking at your appearance, Young Sect Master, you should be planning to set off for the Yunjian Sect." When Hong Feng looked at Chen Li, his eyes still revealed respect.
Chen Li nodded, "Senior Hong, thank you for taking me in these few days. I will leave first."
"Young Sect Master, please be careful. The closer we get to the Yunjian Sect, the more ferocious the monsters around us will be." Hong Feng said.
Although he had never been to the Yunjian Sect, Hong Feng could hear what those disciples said every time they came.
This information was also learned from those disciples at the beginning. Now that I tell it to Chen Li, I don’t know if it will be of any use.
Chen Li nodded, "Thank you for telling me. Don't worry, I will hide away."
After saying that, he turned around and flew outside at an extremely fast speed.
When watching Chen Li leave, Hong Feng felt a lot of emotions in his heart, and then he sighed.
"Please be careful." Hong Feng said this with great earnestness. Now that the Yunjian Sect was destroyed, although they had no need to abide by the Yunjian Sect's promise, since they had promised, they had to do it.
After Chen Li left the town, with the help of the spirit-avoiding jade, the surrounding monsters had no way of finding him.
In addition, he has reached the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, and his speed is no longer comparable to before. In just a few breaths, he has reached a very far place.
"It seems that the benefits brought about by the improvement of cultivation are really huge." Chen Li said with emotion.
If it weren't for the Earth Heart Lotus, I would probably still be in the early stage of the Nascent Soul. Even if I could reach the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, it would take a very long time, and I would also have to endure the hardships of the heavenly tribulation.
He took a deep breath and kept flying forward. Following the guidance of the strange aura, Chen Li almost quickly arrived at a place that looked very strange.
There were a lot of weeds in this place and the air was a little damp, which really made him feel strange.
There is actually such a place in the Western Desert. The ground is not sand, but mud, and there are some trees around it.
Although it looks a bit desolate, compared with the Western Desert, this place is already considered quite wealthy.
However, there was no sense of any monster around, but there was a strange feeling of danger, as if something was watching this place from a hidden position.
Chen Li glanced at the spirit-avoiding jade in his hand. Although he had this thing to protect himself, he couldn't rely on it too much, otherwise something would definitely go wrong.
Thinking in his mind, Chen Li immediately walked in one direction. He didn't dare to fly because the situation around him was too weird. If he made any noise, he would definitely be killed.
As soon as he entered here, Chen Li was shocked to find that not far ahead, a monster had appeared at some point.
That monster looked very strange. It was just lying on the ground, staring at a certain place.
There was clearly nothing in that place, but the monster just stared at it intently, as if some prey was about to be hooked.
Chen Li did not alert the enemy, nor did he make any move. He just stood there and watched.
The habits of these monsters might be able to provide him with some information, so he planned to see what this monster was waiting for.
After about half an incense stick of time, a slender figure suddenly emerged from the ground, and the tiger-shaped monster rushed forward in an instant and bit the slender figure to death.
Chen Li took a deep breath. He didn't expect that there was a demon beast in the middle stage of Nascent Soul in the soil.
Although these two monsters were both in the middle Nascent Soul stage, Chen Li did not sense any aura at all.
It seems that this place is really too dangerous. I can't even detect the breath of monsters. It seems that I can only rely on my intuition.
The tiger-shaped monster, holding the snake-shaped monster in its mouth, quickly left the place, but Chen Li just stood there without making any move.
Because he didn't know whether there were other monsters nearby who were eyeing this place. As the saying goes, the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind it . This tiger was obviously not the oriole.
Just as Chen Li thought, when the tiger-shaped monster just left here, another huge palm suddenly attacked and directly smashed the opponent to death.
It seems that this place is really too dangerous. We must bypass these monsters and go in another direction.
Glancing at the situation around him, Chen Li immediately headed in another direction. However, before he had taken a few steps, he felt a cold gaze coming at him.
The moment he turned his head, he was shocked to find that there was an ape staring at him not far away.
It seems that this is really troublesome. Although there is the spirit-avoiding jade, the opponent's perception is so sharp that I am afraid the spirit-avoiding jade will not work on him.
However, this ape did not choose to attack Chen Li. Instead, it dragged the two corpses of monsters away, as if it had never seen Chen Li.
Chen Li breathed a sigh of relief. He could indeed fight with the ape and defeat him, but there was more than one monster here.
Once the battle begins, there will definitely be other monsters that will reap the benefits, so if you can avoid taking action, do so. This way, you can survive safely.
He walked forward, and every few steps he would observe whether there were any hidden monsters nearby and quicken his pace.
Following the strange breath, Chen Li soon arrived in front of a mountain. There were many trees on this mountain, and it covered a large area. You couldn't even see the top of the mountain when you looked up.
The strange aura completely disappeared at this place. If nothing unexpected happened, the ruins of the Yunjian Sect should be on the top of this mountain.
In that case, there is no need to continue wasting time. It is best to just go up directly.
Thinking in his mind, he went upwards almost without hesitation. Because there were steps at the foot of the mountain, Chen Li felt that this was a lot easier.
As soon as he stepped onto the stairs, Chen Li felt a strange breath coming from his body, and his body felt a little heavy.
He couldn't help but frown. It seemed that there were some restrictions on this staircase. If he wanted to go up, he would probably have to go through some tests.
With his current level of cultivation, he could naturally withstand the test of the Yunjian Sect, so he took a few steps forward without much hesitation.
After walking a few steps, he saw several monsters appearing in front of him, all of which were in the early Nascent Soul stage.
"If it were in the past, perhaps I would choose to leave, but now, you are just a bunch of trash." Chen Li waved his hand, and a sword energy suddenly slashed at them.
These monsters were beheaded , and fell to the ground before they could even launch an attack.
Chen Li took a quick glance at these monsters and was about to take away their inner elixirs, but he found that these monsters did not have any inner elixirs.
"What's going on? There is no inner elixir?" Chen Li said in surprise.
The inner elixir of monsters is indeed rare, but once a monster's cultivation reaches the golden elixir stage, there will definitely be an inner elixir in its body.
Now, these Nascent Soul stage monsters don't even have a single inner elixir. How can this not be shocking?
Chen Li let out a long sigh. It seemed that there was no other way out in the current situation and he could only give up these monsters.
Thinking in his mind, he walked forward again. Although he could feel the pressure growing with each stage, he had no need to worry because of his own cultivation.
When he reached halfway up the mountain, he saw a monster wandering in front of him, and it quickly discovered Chen Li's location.
Chen Li looked at the monster in front of him. There was a green flame burning on its body. It was very large, and there were scales on its hard skin.
Above its nose, there is a long, crystal clear horn, exuding a strong spiritual energy and a terrible breath of danger.
"Wild Bull of the Wasteland, I never expected that such a monster could reach the middle stage of the Nascent Soul. This is the first time I've seen it." Chen Li muttered to himself, and the black sword appeared in his hand.
The wild bull of the wilderness rushed over at the first moment, but Chen Li was not someone to be trifled with. He suddenly swung his sword forward.
Ding! The sound of metal colliding spread around, causing Chen Li to frown.
On the body of the Wild Bull, there was a sword scar that did not look particularly deep, and it was slowly recovering.
I didn't expect this guy's defense to be so terrible, and my move only caused a little skin break.
In that case, let’s try another method. He doesn’t believe that the Wild Bull can even withstand the poison.
Although he had devoured the Sky Demon Spider a long time ago and gained the ability to produce poison, he had never used this ability. This was only the first time he used it.
The spiritual energy along with the poison attached to the black sword looked extremely weird.
Chen Li attacked forward again without hesitation. The Savage Bull was naturally not afraid. It lowered its head and pointed its long horns at Chen Li and attacked.
"Cut!" Chen Li shouted in a low voice, raised his hand to dissolve the attack of the Wild Bull, and then chopped at its body.
The Wild Bull was still very confident in his defense and didn't care about Chen Li's attack at all.
The next moment, Chen Li had already cut a sword mark on the body of the Wild Bull, and the poison was rapidly invading.
