"Unfortunately, Chen Chu, your swordsmanship is not compatible with your main cultivation technique."
"And your sword skills seem to be just entry-level, and you haven't even broken through the first level. Otherwise, with your explosive power and agility, your strength would be even stronger."
After four o'clock in the afternoon, in the reading room on the thirty-third floor, Luo Fei, holding a copy of the Great Compassion Mantra in her hand, said with some regret.
The Dragon Elephant Skill focuses on strength and defense. It is also a low-level skill. It is difficult for the Mind-Eye and Bright Sword to fully bring out its advantages, let alone the beginner in swordsmanship.
On the other hand, Xia Youhui's Xuanwu Thick Earth Skill comes with a shield defense method. As a result of integrating this skill and moves, his combat power soared significantly as soon as he broke through.
Similarly, other people who practiced advanced techniques were similar. They all had matching combat skills, and after breaking through the second level, their strength far exceeded that of ordinary people.
In response to this question, Chen Chu just smiled and said indifferently: "It's okay, I am already very satisfied with my current strength."
"After all, there are not so many perfect things in the world. No matter how much you think, you can't change the status quo. Just practice steadily."
Luo Fei praised: "Chen Chu, I find that your mentality is very suitable for the path of cultivation."
"No, no, you are not bad either. You will break through to the second level quietly." Chen Chu praised back.
"Why do I feel like we're just flattering each other in business?"
"I'm telling the truth." Chen Chu looked confused.
Luo Fei smiled and lowered her head to read.
Seeing this, Chen Chu also smiled and started flipping through the book casually. He didn't know if it was a habit or something, but he enjoyed this time every afternoon.
With a beauty by his side, they read separately without disturbing each other. This atmosphere made him feel relaxed and comfortable.
Feeling the warmth of the sunlight outside the window shining on his body, Chen Chu's consciousness sank. Suddenly, at the bottom of the river more than 30 meters deep, a strange beast lurking in the mud opened its eyes.
Gurgle gurgle!!
The black heavily armored beast, which had grown to a length of 1.5 meters and was as thick as its waist at its thickest point, spit out a string of bubbles and swung its tail, stirring up a cloud of mud and sand.
With heavy armor, a towering dorsal fin, sturdy limbs, and red horns spread out on both sides of its head like wings, the heavy armored beast now looks even more ferocious.
After eating up all the mutated fish within dozens of miles around the river mouth, Chen Chu controlled the heavy armored beast downstream and arrived at the estuary more than 100 kilometers away.
As the river approaches the estuary, its width and depth increase, and there are more fish, such as...
In the distance, a ferocious mutant fish rushed towards the heavily armored beast at an alarming speed, and its big mouth full of fangs bit the heavily armored beast's neck fiercely.
Under normal circumstances, these ferocious mutant fish use the kinetic energy created by their instantaneous burst of speed to tear their prey apart when they approach them.
But today... just as the fish's big mouth bit the neck of the heavy armored beast, and the upper and lower jaws collided with the thick scales, a crisp cracking sound was heard.
When the kinetic energy brought by the speed is unable to tear the prey apart, the reaction of force will appear on itself, and half of the fish's jaw was broken by the impact.
Boom! The water exploded.
The heavy armored beast swept its front claws across, hitting the mutant fish's head with terrifying force. In an instant, the fish's head collapsed and shattered, and blood mixed with white objects splattered everywhere.
This is how the heavy armored beast hunts. It relies on its terrifying defense to lure the enemy's attack, and then counterattacks to kill instantly.
As for why this mode was chosen, of course it is because the speed is too slow.
As its size grows and its defense becomes stronger, the heavy armored beast's own weight also reaches an astonishing level.
Even though the heavily armored beasts could burst out a hundred times their own strength, they were still affected by gravity, and their speed and agility in the water could not match those of these streamlined fish.
Under the surging river, as the heavy-armored beasts bit and ate, a strong smell of blood immediately spread, and many small fish as small as one or two fingers came to smell the smell.
Every time the heavy armored beast bit and chewed, some blood and flesh residue would splash out from between its teeth, and at this time the small fish would swarm over.
In this situation, small fish were swallowed by the heavy armored beasts from time to time, but it still couldn't stop their madness.
Just when the heavy-armored beast had almost finished eating the ferocious fish that was more than two meters long, it suddenly stopped eating and looked into the distance.
I saw a huge black shadow swimming in the blurry river water about ten meters away, seemingly observing the heavily armored beast, emitting a faint dangerous aura.
This feeling of danger was the first time I encountered it after releasing the heavy armored beast.
The heavy armored beast couldn't help but let go of the fish head. Its muscles tensed, and the three pairs of red horns on both sides of its head opened, ready to attack.
However, it seemed to feel that the heavy-armored beast was difficult to deal with. After swimming around twice, the creature, which was more than six meters long, disappeared into the depths of the water.
It was not until the mutant fish disappeared that the vigilance in the heavy armored beast's eyes slowly dissipated. "I didn't expect that there would be such a ferocious mutant fish near the estuary."
"It seems we need to be more careful."
As Chen Chu was lost in thought, his consciousness moved and he controlled the heavily armored beast to swim towards the shore a few miles away, preparing to build a nest and settle down first.
Although there are some mutant fish here that give it a sense of danger, the food is also abundant and can meet the growth needs of the clone, so Chen Chu naturally will not leave.
On the way to the shore, the heavy armored beast hunted down a mutant fish that was more than two meters long and looked like a sea wolf as food.
After eating and drinking, Chen Chu controlled the heavy armored beast to dig a new hole on the river bank. Then he slowly retracted his attention and found that the girl opposite was looking at him.
"What's wrong? Is there something on my face?" Chen Chu touched his cheek in confusion.
Luo Fei looked away naturally and said softly, "Nothing, it's just that it's getting late and I saw you were in a daze, so I was wondering whether I should wake you up."
"It's almost six o'clock. Time flies so fast." Chen Chu glanced at the clock on the wall and couldn't help but sigh.
At this time, Luo Fei suddenly asked: "By the way, Chen Chu, do you have time this Sunday?"
Chen Chu was puzzled: "What's the matter?"
Luo Fei nodded slightly: "During the training this afternoon, the squad leader said that all the hundred acres of lotus flowers in Mingyue Lake have bloomed, and they are going to organize everyone to go for a tour on Sunday."
"In addition to the five of us in our club, the class monitor's sister Lin Yu is also confirmed to be going. She asked me to ask if you want to go."
Faced with this question, Chen Chu did not say whether to go or not, but smiled and looked at the girl opposite: "Then do you want me to go?"
Luo Fei's eyes flickered slightly, and she pretended not to care and said softly: "I think you can go and take a look. After so long of training since the beginning of school, everyone is a little mentally exhausted."
"This can be treated as a relaxing trip so that you can continue practicing with a better mindset. What do you think?"
Chen Chu nodded: "That makes sense."
The girl's eyes flickered: "Then are you going?"
Chen Chu nodded affirmatively: "Go, after all, even if I don't give face to the squad leader, I have to give face to you, Luo Fei."
Faced with this answer, the girl just raised the corners of her mouth, smiled in her eyes and turned her head away without responding to him.
