Chapter 21 Unexpected Changes

Before Li Xuan could say anything, Xu Miantu spoke up, "It's still early. With just a few bone beads, we can't guarantee first place. We have to keep going."

Jiang Hao also looked at the map and said, "From the map, this is still a safe area. If we go about ten kilometers ahead, there shouldn't be too much risk."

Li Xuan opened the map on his phone, looked at it for a while, and nodded. "According to the data, no legendary creatures have appeared nearby. It's okay to go a little further. We must get enough bone beads. We have to rank first in the Guide Prefecture combat test, and we can't afford any mistakes."

Zhou Wen knew that he had to dissuade Li Xuan and the others from moving forward, otherwise if they encountered General Ku Gu, the death of any one of them would have a great impact on his performance.

Although Zhou Wen had no intention of entering the upper class by going to school, he wanted to be admitted to a top prestigious university.

If one of the four died, the possibility of entering a top prestigious university would be very slim. No matter how good the grades in other subjects were, they could only get into a first-class university, which was not what Zhou Wen expected.

"Li Xuan, do you believe that there is a sixth sense in this world?" Zhou Wen pondered for a moment and asked Li Xuan.

"What do you mean?" Li Xuan did not answer directly, but looked at Zhou Wen with interest and asked back.

"I think my sixth sense is stronger than the average person's. Ever since I was little, I've always had this vague feeling that something dangerous is about to happen, and it makes me very uncomfortable. I don't know if it's a sign of danger, but every time I have this uncomfortable feeling, I'll soon run into some trouble." After a pause, Zhou Wencai continued, "And right now, I'm feeling very uncomfortable."

"If you're scared, then be scared. Why talk about sixth sense? You're really good at it." Xu Miantu said disdainfully.

Li Xuan looked Zhou Wen up and down for a moment, then turned his gaze to Jiang Hao.

Jiang Hao thought for a moment and said, "The number of bone beads we have now isn't enough to guarantee our team first place. It seems a bit inappropriate to just go back like this."

Obviously, Jiang Hao also meant to keep moving forward.

Seeing Li Xuan's hesitation, Zhou Wen quickly added, "Li Xuan, please believe me. I don't always have this feeling when I'm in danger, but whenever it does, I'm bound to be in big trouble. If I were simply afraid of death, I could have retreated to the entrance and waited for you. There's no need to say this."

After a pause, Zhou Wen continued, "Just like Xu Miantu said, Guide Prefecture is just a small place. There aren't many strong high school students here. I'm afraid few of them would dare to cross the designated area to hunt the withered skeleton soldiers. We've already obtained so many bone beads, we can definitely return to the designated area and continue hunting withered skeleton soldiers. The first place is still a sure thing, and there's no need to take risks. After all, we only have one life, so it's better to be cautious."

"That makes sense." Li Xuan seemed moved by Zhou Wen's words and nodded. "Let's do this, then. Let's go back and hunt the Skeleton Soldiers in other directions."

"There's no need for that at all." Xu Miantu muttered, but he didn't dare to disobey Li Xuan's decision. He turned around and followed Li Xuan back.

Jiang Hao also followed and walked to Li Xuan's side.

Zhou Wen naturally turned around and walked back early, but after taking only two steps, he suddenly heard Jiang Hao scream: "What is that?"

Everyone was startled by him and turned to look at him. He was looking at an ancient building next to him with a look of horror, as if he had seen something very terrifying.

Zhou Wen, Li Xuan and Xu Miantu all subconsciously turned their heads to look over, but at this moment, a cold light flashed in Jiang Hao's hands, and a strange jade dagger appeared in each of them.

The jade dagger in Jiang Hao's left hand pierced into Li Xuan's waist in an instant like a poisonous snake spitting out its tongue, and the one-foot-long jade blade was completely inserted into it.

This sudden change happened so suddenly that Xu Miantu had no time to react to what happened before the other jade dagger in Jiang Hao's right hand had already slashed across his neck.

Xu Miantu retreated quickly, but his neck was still cut. Although the aorta was not severed, Xu Miantu's neck was instantly stained red with blood.

"Jiang Hao...what are you doing..." Xu Miantu's face was full of horror. He covered the wound on his neck and screamed while retreating, as if he could not believe what was happening at all.

Jiang Hao ignored Xu Miantu, but just clenched a pair of jade daggers in his hands, staring at the wound on Li Xuan's waist.

The wound was caused by his dagger. He knew very well what effect the wound should have. However, the muscles and fat at the wound seemed to be pulled by some force, squeezing the wound. Only a small amount of blood seeped out of the wound. For a wound of that severity, this was almost impossible.

"I didn't expect that the third young master of the Li family, who was rumored to be absurd and licentious, actually mastered the innate and invincible magic skill that requires practicing as a virgin." Jiang Hao stared at Li Xuan and said slowly.

Zhou Wen was also a little surprised when he heard the words "Innate Invincible Divine Art".

Things like vitality skills and companion pets can be obtained by hunting creatures from other dimensions, but the vitality skills are the only thing that cannot be obtained through dimensional crystals.

Legend has it that the Yuanqi Jue originated from ancient qigong, fighting qi, ninjutsu and other techniques, but there were no yuanqi crystals in the past, so those techniques had no support from yuanqi and could not exert their true power.

It was not until the extra-dimensional creatures appeared and humans absorbed the Yuan Qi crystals that those techniques became useful and gradually formed the current Yuan Qi Jue.

The Yuanqi Jue is of great use to human beings. Human beings can grow and evolve by absorbing dimensional crystals, but it is difficult to cross a large level. The Yuanqi Jue has the power to break through the level restrictions.

Just like Zhou Wen, if he wants to advance from the mortal level to the legendary level, it is not enough to just absorb the dimensional crystals. He must raise his bitter Zen to a higher level before his body can evolve to the legendary level.

However, the Yuan Qi Jue also has its pros and cons. Ku Chan can only allow Zhou Wen to be promoted to the legendary level at most, which is already the limit of Ku Chan's Yuan Qi Jue. No matter how much he practices, Zhou Wen will not be able to be promoted to the epic level.

Among the currently known Qi Jue, there are only less than twenty that can allow humans to advance to the epic level, and the Xiantian Invincible Divine Art is one of them.

However, the Xiantian Invincible Divine Art has a strange requirement for cultivation, which is that one must practice with the body of a boy. The so-called boy's body is the body of a virgin.

Once a man's virginity is broken, his innate invincible magical power will also be broken, losing the power it was supposed to have.
