"Report, coordinates vertical 2795, horizontal 1980, the presence of Blood God cultists detected."
"Report, the True Demon Skull has been activated, and no traces of demonic energy have been detected..."
"Report, just before the base satellite fell, a strong demonic aura was detected deep in the Cloud and Mist Mountains, a breath of the Eternal God Cult."
"But under the impact of the subsequent fall, both auras disappeared and could not be locked."
"Lock the coordinates, notify the nearby teams to go investigate..."
In the monitoring center of the rear military base, voices continued to be heard one after another, reporting the current situation and conveying orders.
Soon, the three evil cultists whose auras were exposed were surrounded by the nearby team.
At the same time, Chen Qi and another team quickly arrived at the coordinate point where Zuo Jing disappeared.
But what the four saw were several dead mountains and a huge deep pit where the original space channel was located, but was now swallowed up by the collapse of the channel.
"The spatial fluctuations here are very strong. The believers of the Eternal God Church should have left through the passage, and the temporary passage has also collapsed."
At this point, Chen Qi's eyes were filled with thought, as he thought of the report he had received from An Fuqing earlier.
The mysterious cultist who left should be the strange young man mentioned by An Fuqing. He came in to look for someone. Who was he looking for?
In the morning, after Zuo Jing left, An Fuqing reported the situation on her side to Chen Qi.
Although Zuo Jing had given her a lot of advice in the past two days, she knew the major issues very well. Now that she could no longer keep an eye on him, she would naturally not hide his whereabouts anymore.
Of course, the girl also has some selfish motives.
If they hadn't informed the higher-ups right away, there might have been several teams of martial arts teachers surrounding the cliff.
After a moment of hesitation, Chen Qi said in a deep voice: "There is a strong residual demonic energy in the air. There is no breath of life around. There must be a ferocious demon here."
"Everyone should search carefully separately to avoid any fish slipping through the net."
Soon, Chen Qi and the other three carefully searched the surrounding area within dozens of kilometers, but found nothing, so they returned to the space channel again.
"Strange, there were indeed traces of monsters here, but it seems they were... killed?"
"Notify the higher-ups that this place is definitely safe."
"Report, the target has been eliminated."
"Report, the target here has been killed..."
As all the invaders were confirmed to be eliminated, the three-day extermination campaign came to an end, and everyone in the Yunwu Mountains received the news of the end.
“They were killed just like that.”
Like a giant sword, on a straight mountain rising hundreds of meters from the earth, Chen Chu looked at the message from the smart watch and was stunned.
No, I haven’t killed enough... No, I shouldn’t have earned many contribution points yet, so why are you all dead?
Well, that’s normal when you think about it.
With the power of the military, plus the hidden strength of various universities, it would be useless if it took a long time to deal with these invaders.
On the contrary, it is normal for such a situation to be swiftly eradicated with lightning speed after being discovered.
It's just a pity. If we had entered the depths of the mountains earlier and encountered those invaders and killed them all, we would have made a fortune this time.
Thinking of this, Chen Chu couldn't help but silently estimate the harvest this time.
Six hundred contribution points, three hundred merit points, materials estimated to be worth several hundred points seized from Maxius, and a bronze medal of unknown use.
All in all, I gained a lot this time.
Especially the 300 merit points, which are equivalent to 1,000 contributions, and because it is a high-authority "currency", its value is even higher.
Chen Chu nodded in satisfaction: "Not bad, it's equivalent to killing several level six mutant beasts."
The value of a level 5 mutant creature is between 130 and 150 contribution points, while that of a level 6 one skyrocketed to between 300 and 400.
The difference in value is not more flesh and blood, but the stronger scales, skins, bones and some organs that have been tempered by energy on the sixth-level beasts.
After processing, these things become rare superconducting materials, which can be used in many advanced weapons and equipment machinery.
However, for Chen Chu now, the sixth-level monster is easy to kill, but the problem is that it is very troublesome to bring it back.
These creatures basically live deep in the Cloudy Mountains.
Not to mention that each one is huge in size and weighs over a hundred tons. The round trip alone takes more than a week to travel 6,000 to 7,000 kilometers.
Time-consuming and laborious.
At this time, Chen Chu's watch beeped, and someone wanted to talk to him.
"Hello! Chen Chu, can you hear me?"
"I can hear you, Teacher Chen."
"I have some things to do here, which will probably take me two days. When you get back, come to my office. I have some matters to tell you about cultivation."
"...Okay, teacher."
Explanation of the matter, top secret book? Chen Chu was thoughtful.
At this moment, Chen Chu thought of something: "Teacher Chen, could you help me keep the points of the evil god cultists I killed for two days?"
"Why?" Chen Qi on the opposite side was a little confused.
With Chen Chu's record of killing the evil god's cultists above his level, once the points are calculated, it will be enough to rush into the top ten of the performance list.
This is because he does not have enough points. His combat power alone is enough to make him the first place.
Young people like Chen Chu should be very excited about this kind of honor, so why should they wait for two days?
Facing Chen Qi's question, Chen Chu said calmly: "I felt the fighting spirit before, but in the end I failed to condense it due to my lack of martial arts foundation. This time I want to try another way when I go back."
To gather an invincible fighting spirit with the help of external forces, one needs to gather a huge momentum. Therefore, if one enters the top ten of the performance list in advance, the mental impact on those students of the same level will not be strong enough.
After all, you are in the top ten of the battle record list, and you have killed so many people with the combat power of the sixth level. It is normal that I cannot beat you and do not want to fight with you.
But he needed to sweep away all the geniuses in the entire south, so it would be safer to challenge them with the monstrous realm of the fifth level of the lower grade.
Of course, Chen Chu didn’t quite understand all of this. It was his first time coming into contact with thoughts, especially this method of condensation that didn’t rely on sudden enlightenment but on the power of heaven and earth. So he could only pay attention to all aspects that might have problems.
"...I understand. No problem."
Chen Qi on the opposite side took a deep breath, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
She didn't expect that Chen Chu not only practiced the Dragon Elephant Technique at an astonishing speed, but was also very good at comprehension of thoughts and had even felt the desire to fight.
"Do you want to gather an invincible force by challenging practitioners of the same level?" Chen Qi thought thoughtfully.
After asking Chen Qi for help, the rocks under Chen Chu's feet exploded, and the whole person jumped hundreds of meters high, and with a bang, crashed into another mountain more than three hundred meters away.
The terrain here is unique.
The mountains on the earth are more like sharp rocks hundreds of meters high rising from the ground, covered with lush green grass and surrounded by clouds and mist, just like the legendary fairyland.
that is……
Boom boom boom! Chen Chu, wearing battle armor, jumped on the peaks of the sea of clouds. Every time he landed, there would be a violent explosion, and the momentum was shaking.
At this moment, Chen Chu had a feeling of crossing the sea of clouds. Although he could not fly, he could jump.
Soon, Chen Chu crossed the misty wonderland, his figure flashed into the forest and quickly rushed out of the mountain, like a golden-red light.
Everything was broken wherever it passed, whether it was grass or trees or mutant creatures that jumped out, all were crushed by the domineering figure.
Suddenly, the golden-red light that Chen Chu's figure turned into flashed slightly, and drew a semicircular arc from the front.
After he disappeared, a black crack appeared there silently, and all the surrounding matter was cut into two pieces wherever it passed, and then slowly disappeared.
With his double pupils, these randomly appearing cracks no longer posed a threat to Chen Chu.
The harvest was rich this time, and Chen Chu prepared to rush back to strengthen the Dragon Elephant Skill to the limit of the sixth level to see if he could condense a complete rune.
Just think about it, if the incomplete rune elephant wrath is so powerful, then what about the rune with the dragon elephant body at its limit? Wouldn't it be earth-shattering?
Thinking of this, even Chen Chu felt a little excited.
As long as his Dragon Elephant Tyrant Body is pushed to the limit, his strength will become the best among the young generation in the south, and even the so-called awakeners will be beaten in front of him.
BANG BANG BANG!!
Bursting at a normal speed of over 200 meters per second, Chen Chu quickly crossed the middle and rear sections of the Yunwu Mountains and returned to the cliff before dark.
There, the girl wearing ordinary battle armor was sitting cross-legged on the edge of the cliff as usual, emitting a mysterious aura, an aura... of the late fourth level.
Chen Chu's eyes showed astonishment.
After only two days of not seeing each other, An Fuqing unexpectedly broke through to the late fourth level.
In addition, two terrifying sword intentions surrounded her, one was real and unreal, and the other was sharp and could cut through everything.
The rich energy of heaven and earth gathered towards her, and was constantly transformed and absorbed by the true energy in her body, and her aura became stronger at an astonishing speed.
In this state of enlightenment, An Fuqing's cultivation speed was astonishingly fast.
call!
Chen Chu let out a long breath, envy in his eyes, and said, "Student An, is this what you mean by loosening your realm?"
On the edge of the cliff, An Fuqing regained his composure, the terrifying sword intent in his eyes slowly faded away, and he turned around and spoke calmly.
"After watching Zuo Jing's world in the palm of my hand, my understanding of the world has become more profound in the past two days. It feels like I have entered another new world."
At this point, An Fuqing shook his head: "It's a pity that the feeling is hard to describe, otherwise it should be helpful for you to concentrate your thoughts, classmate Chen."
...Actually, I feel like even if you tell me, I still won’t be able to understand.
Of course, Chen Chu only complained in his heart and didn't say it out loud.
After all, others could think of helping him concentrate his thoughts at this time, and Chen Chu felt a little touched.
I always feel that these classmates are sincere and cute, whether it is Lao Xia, Li Meng, Luo Fei and the others. On the contrary, his thoughts are usually more complicated.
At this time, Chen Chu looked around and said, "Student An, where is Brother Zuo?"
"He's gone."
An Fuqing paused for a moment, then said without hiding anything: "Zuo Jing is also a member of the Evil God Cult."
"…Student An also discovered it."
An Fuqing nodded slightly: "This person is very mysterious, but he doesn't seem to have much ill will towards the people of our Federation."
Then An Fuqing added: "I have already informed Teacher Chen about his news this morning."
"What did the teacher say?"
"She said that she had uploaded the information and was tracking him. She also asked me to write a report to her with the detailed information of my contact with him over the past two days."
Chen Chu nodded. Since his superiors had been notified, he didn’t need to worry about it.
As for whether An Fuqing's two-day contact with the other party would have any impact on her, Chen Chu was not worried about that. The official authorities were not that narrow-minded.
The only contact between the two was "discussing the Dao", which did not cause him to be suspicious of her.
As they talked, the sky darkened.
Seeing this, Chen Chu got some dry firewood and started a fire. It happened that the stove from the night before was still there.
There is no need to even look for food, as the mutant cow still has most of its meat left.
The weather in the Yunwu Mountains in March was cold, with temperatures only around ten degrees Celsius. In addition, the flesh and blood of the mutant creatures contained energy, so the food was still fresh after two days.
night!
The flames were leaping as the two men sat in front of the stone slabs and ate barbecue.
Compared to Chen Chu who was eating slowly, the girl opposite had her mouth full of oil.
I saw her flipping the stone slab with chopsticks in one hand and sprinkling various seasonings on it with the other hand. As long as a piece of barbecue was cooked, she would stuff it into her mouth regardless of the hotness.
This style of painting was too different from the previous image of her sitting cross-legged on the edge of a cliff, practicing martial arts and having a noble temperament as a talented girl. Chen Chu was stunned by it.
Hello!!
You weren't like this the night before yesterday. Where's your demeanor as the top person in Nantian Wugao? Where's your image?
"Student An, do you rarely eat barbecue?" Chen Chu finally couldn't help but speak.
An Fuqing nodded; "Very rarely, my mother has a light taste and never let me eat these since I was a child."
At this time, An Fuqing also noticed that her image was not very good, but she just smiled embarrassedly, but her hands did not slow down.
Chen Chu asked curiously, "To be able to teach a genius like An, your parents must also be practitioners, and their achievements are not low."
An Fuqing nodded: "My mother was indeed a cultivator before, but her foundation was damaged later. In recent years, her cultivation has not only not improved but has been regressing."
"As for my father, my mother said he has been dead for many years."
"...dead, sorry." Chen Chu paused slightly.
An Fuqing said nonchalantly: "It's okay. In our era, many people have incomplete families, not just me."
Chen Chu nodded in agreement.
From the chaotic era to the present, the human world has actually experienced many disasters, otherwise the population would not have taken decades to recover a little.
For example, his father died of illness at an early age, and almost all the older generations in his family had died.
Just as Chen Chu was sighing, An Fuqing paused and said slowly, "My mother's injuries were too severe to recover, and she passed away last year."
Chen Chu subconsciously asked: "Do you have any other family members?"
"No more." Looking at the jumping flames in front of him, An Fuqing was a little dazed and for a moment he lost his appetite for meat.
The atmosphere suddenly became a little dull. Chen Chu didn't expect that the topic of casual chat would jump here. Looking at the girl opposite him, he sighed slightly in his heart.
Compared to An Fuqing, he is much better.
At least in this world he still has two relatives, his mother and his younger brother, so he is not lonely.
Chen Chu sighed again: "I'm sorry."
An Fuqing came back to his senses and looked at him strangely: "Didn't I just say that there is no need to apologize? The dead cannot be resurrected, and the living must continue to live."
"And I promised my mother that I would stay alive and well."
At this time, Chen Chu changed the subject: "Student An, you have been very successful since the beginning of the school year. What is the purpose of your hard work in cultivation?"
He felt that the previous topic was a bit heavy, so this time he changed to a more positive topic to inspire the girl's hope for the future.
"Kill a man."
"...Kill someone." Chen Chu paused again, wondering if he had heard it wrong. Why did the girl opposite him always play against the rules?
An Fuqing nodded: "Yes, killing a person is my mother's last wish."
Well, it’s the grudges of the previous generation.
I don’t know if it was because she remembered her life goal, but the girl regained her appetite and ate the barbecue happily, as if this would help her grow faster.
"Hey! Classmate An, why haven't you refined the armor yet after entering the battlefield for so long?" Chen Chu changed the subject again.
It turns out that An Fuqing entered the alien beast battlefield a month and a half earlier than him. With her strength, she should be able to obtain contribution points quickly.
But he seemed to have only a Sumeru bracelet and an extraordinary sword on him.
The bracelet was a reward from Koroya and his party, and the sword was refined on the same day as Chen Chu's halberd more than ten days ago.
The girl answered dryly: "I'm poor and I haven't made any contribution." Then she picked up another big bite of barbecue and stuffed it into her mouth, chewing with her cheeks puffed up.
This picture looks kind of cute.
"Uh...how can you be poor? With your strength, it shouldn't be difficult to contribute one or two hundred points?" Chen Chu was a little surprised.
An Fuqing shook his head: "I didn't kill the mutants because they were too heavy and troublesome. The contribution to refining the sword came from a few golden sunflowers I picked up on the road."
"... After entering the alien beast battlefield for so long, could it be that you just randomly find a cliff to meditate and practice?"
"right."
"...Awesome." Chen Chu didn't know what to say for a moment.
Then a strange look gradually appeared in Chen Chu's eyes, because he found that An Fuqing was completely the template of the destined protagonist.
Both his parents are dead, he has an enemy as his training target, and his talent is beyond belief. Just by practicing quietly, his cultivation level improves at an exaggerated speed.
It has only been half a year since she started practicing and she is almost at the fifth level. Moreover, judging by her terrifying improvement after breaking through the fourth level, could it be possible that she will reach the ninth level in another year? !
At this time, An Fuqing on the opposite side also asked curiously: "Student Chen, what is your cultivation goal?"
"My goal... is to enjoy the process of becoming stronger." Chen Chu thought about it.
Because the stronger he is, the more secure he feels.
