Chapter 377 Not That Great
"drop!"
Amid subtle mechanical sounds, one alchemical instrument after another was started up.
Under the protection of everyone, Bai Rushang and Bai Xiaoyan connected and set up the alchemical instruments and equipment one by one and started working.
Qiao Liang and Zhu Qian stood by silently, glancing at them from time to time, and looking around with a vigilant look on their faces, to be on guard for Bai Ruxiang and Bai Xiaoyan.
Xu Xiayan, Wang Di, and Wang Qian were observing the status of the dark giant beast in front of them through the mountain wall. From time to time, they would take out their terminals to record something, as if they were also collecting some intelligence and information.
Seeing that there was nothing for Su Ming to do, he thought about it and finally walked out of the mountain wall and got a little closer to the Hell Beast.
"Captain!"
Chi Qian spoke quickly, which surprised everyone.
"It's okay." Su Ming didn't look back, but just waved at everyone and said nonchalantly: "I'll just take a look."
As he spoke, Su Ming did not get too close to the Hell Beast. He just walked about a few meters away from the mountain wall and then stopped.
Seeing this scene, everyone felt a little relieved.
"You little brother, you really don't want to live."
Xu Xiayan came to Su Ming and complained to him.
"I'm just taking a closer look. I'm not going to commit suicide."
Su Ming shrugged, then raised his eyes and looked at the dark monster in front of him.
Only after getting closer like this could Su Ming personally experience how big and terrifying this hell beast was.
That huge body of eternal darkness, deeper than darkness and darker than pitch black, really looked like a breathing hill. Its slightest ups and downs could cause a low rumbling sound in the atmosphere, which was quite intimidating.
However, Su Ming could clearly see that the giant beast was covered with scars visible to the naked eye, and a little blood oozed out from time to time and dripped onto the ground.
The blood that dripped onto the ground did not stain the ground red, nor did it form a pool of blood. Instead, it floated up like an egg the moment it hit the ground, and then squirmed and turned into a person, or a phantom demon.
These people and the phantom demons had dull eyes and frighteningly pale faces. They staggered around like moving corpses and joined the group of wandering zombies.
"It's just as you said. The nightmare mutant's injuries haven't healed yet, so there are so many zombies wandering around here."
Su Ming couldn't help but whispered.
"These are all intelligence materials given to me by the top leaders of Tianfeng City. I am only explaining them to you based on that information." Xu Xiayan sighed and said, "However, the injury of this hell beast is really not healed. It is worth the trip to confirm this information."
"Maybe." Su Ming said noncommittally, "I really don't know what kind of strength the powerful humans who surrounded and killed this hell beast had, to let this beast still be covered in wounds after so many years."
"It must be a powerful force that we cannot reach now." Xu Xiayan smiled and said, "A strong human who has the ability to surround and kill a nightmare mutant must be a seven-star professional at the very least."
"And seven-star professionals either hold top-grade alchemical weapons, or even those sub-divine weapons ranked in the top ten on the weapon list, or they can use forbidden techniques. If they pay a huge price, it would be easy to cause serious injuries that can never be healed."
Even the terrifying species known as the King of the Demonic Prison was sealed almost forever after humans paid a huge sacrifice. A nightmare mutant, no matter how powerful or terrifying it was, could not escape without suffering any sequelae in front of a human strongman who was not afraid of sacrifice.
Perhaps this is the only thing that humans can be proud of when facing phantom demons?
If a strong human being is not afraid of death or sacrifice, it is undoubtedly quite terrifying.
Especially those sorcerers who have mastered forbidden techniques are simply the most terrifying natural enemies for the phantom demons.
"In the future, you may be able to reach that point and be compared with these great men in history."
Xu Xiayan looked at Su Ming and said these words.
In her opinion, Su Ming has the potential to become a seven-star sorcerer, and he can use advanced spiritual techniques at the age of eighteen. As long as he does not die young, it is only a foregone conclusion that he will become one of the most outstanding and powerful people in human history.
"Forget it, I'm not that great."
Su Ming, however, declined the offer.
Although he wanted to become stronger, he didn't want to become a great man who was not afraid of sacrifice.
He is not that great, nor does he have such noble ideals and sentiments. He just keeps developing like this because he wants to be invincible and do whatever he wants without any constraints.
In such a world, without power and strong strength, one would have to worry all the time about becoming blood food in the mouth of some phantom demon.
Su Ming wanted to become stronger, but at best it was just for self-protection, for himself.
If possible, he really wants to be a supporting role rather than a hero or the protagonist.
Being a hero means taking care of others, and even sacrificing for others.
The protagonist represents a person with a destiny and needs to shoulder the responsibility of the development of the world.
Su Ming doesn't want to be a hero, nor does he want to be the protagonist. He just wants to be an invincible supporting actor and live his life as he pleases.
Therefore, even if he could master forbidden techniques like those great sorcerers and become the nightmare of countless phantom demons, he was not interested.
In Su Ming's opinion, the highest he could pursue as a sorcerer would probably be the advanced spiritual arts that ranked 90th in the sequence.
As for the ten forbidden techniques ranked 90-100, Su Ming would not want to learn them even if they were placed in front of him.
He doesn't want to be a so-called great man who makes great sacrifices to achieve the goals of all mankind.
Therefore, Su Ming did not comment on Xu Xiayan's words.
Xu Xiayan might have seen a little bit of Su Ming's thoughts, but she said nothing and just chuckled there.
But soon, Xu Xiayan asked a question.
"By the way, Xiaoming brother, can you tell me what level of strength you have?" Xu Xiayan finally asked this question, looking at Su Ming with great curiosity, and said: "Looking at your performance along the way, I find you more and more mysterious and I find it more and more difficult to understand you. Are you really just a one-star sorcerer? Eighteen years old?"
Obviously, Xu Xiayan was really shocked by Su Ming's performance, so she couldn't help but ask this question.
Originally, in her eyes, Su Ming was just a youngster with potential.
But now, seeing that Su Ming remained calm even when facing the Hell Beast at such a close distance, and remembering the seven circular arrays that Su Ming had released casually before, Xu Xiayan already understood that this junior did not just have potential, but already possessed strength that even she could not understand.
"Could it be that you are really a senior professional?"
Xu Xiayan smiled, but couldn't help but let a hint of anticipation enter her tone.
no way.
If Su Ming is really a senior professional, then he is an eighteen-year-old senior professional.
It cannot be said that there will be no successors, but it is also unprecedented.
If Su Ming is really a senior professional, then he is five years ahead of the world record.

This achievement is indeed huge.
If such an achievement was really achieved by the younger generation she brought from her hometown, then Xu Xiayan felt that she had done a great thing.
This made Xu Xiayan feel excited.
Su Ming glanced at Xu Xiayan, then glanced behind him and found that the movements there had also become much slower.
Even without seeing it in person, Su Ming could feel what was happening.
Qiao Liang and Zhu Qian must have been drawn to this side and were looking over here, listening attentively.
Wang Di and Wang Qian seemed to have heard Xu Xiayan's words as well, and there was a hint of surprise in their glances at Su Ming.
Bai Ruxiang and Bai Xiaoyan stopped what they were doing, as if they were surprised by Xu Xiayan's words.
Only Chi Qian was quietly looking at Su Ming's back.
Among the people present, only this former female legend knew what level of existence Su Ming was now.
A senior professional? No.
"The leader is not just an ordinary senior professional."
Chi Qian sighed in his heart.
Chi Qian was sure that even Xu Xiayan, who had high expectations, only thought that Su Ming had the possibility of being promoted to a higher level and becoming an 18-year-old senior professional.
However, they didn't know that this eighteen-year-old senior professional was not comparable to those who had just been promoted to senior level.
Thinking of Su Ming's identity as a dual-professional, and the hunter strength that this team leader had demonstrated along the way that was no less than a six-star, Chi Qian was filled with emotion.
"The existence of the leader is a miracle."
This is the most intuitive idea of Chi Qian.
As for Su Ming, facing Xu Xiayan's expectant gaze and the vague attention from behind him, he curled his lips and smiled.
"you guess?"
The answer given by Su Ming made Xu Xiayan want to hit him.
"No guessing." Xu Xiayan patted Su Ming's shoulder and said angrily, "You are keeping me in suspense. You are such an ungrateful person."
"This is called keeping secrets." Su Ming objected: "As a man, of course you have to maintain some mystery."
"You? Still a man?" Xu Xiayan said disdainfully: "You are at best a boy, and you will always be a younger brother."
As soon as Xu Xiayan said this, Su Ming became angry.
Fuck, you can't just pretend you didn't hear that.
Just when Su Ming was about to say something, suddenly, his extraordinary spiritual perception made him feel alert.
"What's wrong?"
Xu Xiayan was still waiting for Su Ming to refute, but saw Su Ming suddenly stop and stand there in a daze.
“It’s troublesome.”
Su Ming muttered something, then grabbed Xu Xiayan.
"Hurry, hide."
Having said that, Su Ming dragged Xu Xiayan back to the corner, between the mountain walls, regardless of her reaction.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing this, everyone who had been observing Su Ming came forward together.
However, before Su Ming could explain, a series of sounds of breaking through the air suddenly came, attracting everyone's attention.
