Chapter 25: Want to Pick Up a Lot
The monster was so angry that it almost died. This human was very cunning. As soon as it hit him, he ran away. If it didn't chase him, the human would turn around and try to steal its eggs.
And this damn tiger always bites its tail and specifically targets one place to bite.
After these two fights, the monster's mentality was broken by the man and the tiger. It gradually became angry and didn't care about anything else. It wanted to kill them.
Chen Wenxuan saw that the time was almost right, so he led the monster out of the cave and shouted, "Junior brother, get ready."
Bai Cheng chose the right time and activated the formation. The monster was successfully trapped in the formation and used its tail to hit things around in an attempt to break out.
Things were proceeding as planned. Nan Xiao had been crouching behind a tree, watching intently. She heard a rustling sound coming from outside the miasma. She deftly peered out a distance, but the miasma was too thick to see clearly. She could only make out a dozen or so shadows approaching.
Nan Xiao carefully returned to his original position. Chen Wenxuan and the others were still concentrating on subduing the monster, trying to calm it down. There was quite a commotion here, and it was only a matter of time before those people came over.
This time she was able to collect so many spiritual medicines, all thanks to the group of people from the Spirit Beast Sect. Just giving them a reminder was the most she could do. As for whether they could defend it or not, it depended on their own abilities.
Nan Xiao didn't dare get too close to them, fearing they might get hurt by the noise made by the monsters. The person closest to her was Bai Cheng, so Nan Xiao threw a stone to call him.
"Brother Bai"
"Junior Sister Nan, it's dangerous here, you should go back quickly." Bai Cheng looked at the stone rolling at his feet and turned to look at Nan Xiao.
"I know, Senior Brother Bai, someone is coming, be careful."
Nan Xiao finished speaking and, without Bai Cheng telling her otherwise, she found a secluded spot to hide. She wasn't interested in the so-called divine beast egg. She had already gathered quite a few spiritual herbs on this trip, which was already a good harvest. As for the egg, she'd let the big guys fight over it. She was just a little Qi cultivator, so she didn't want to get involved.
Bai Cheng understood immediately and told Chen Wenxuan about it.
"Everyone, hurry up, I'll leave this junior brother to you," said Chen Wenxuan.
After saying that, he and Baihu controlled the monster on the left and right for a few seconds. The young disciple of the Spirit Beast Sect seized the opportunity and slipped into the cave through a gap. His goal was clear. He put the egg into the storage ring and started running back.
"Big Brother got it."
The monster felt that its egg was gone and became very angry. It went into a rampage and its demonic power surged. It directly reached the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, broke the formation, and knocked all the disciples of the Spirit Beast Sect away, causing them to vomit blood and fall to the ground.
It turned around and pounced on the thief who stole its eggs, determined to eat it alive.
The junior brother, who was in the early stage of foundation building, was unable to do anything under the pressure of a peak Nascent Soul cultivator. He couldn't even throw the storage ring to Chen Wenxuan.
The monster's counterattack was extremely ferocious, which was something Chen Wenxuan had not expected.
"Little Junior Brother, be careful..."
Everyone was shouting, and even Nan Xiao, who was far away, was worried about him.
The monster was already above his head. Chen Wenxuan's eyes changed, and a hint of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes. He held the magic sword in his hand and blocked its attack with the sword at an extremely fast speed before the monster could hurt his junior brother.
Chen Wenxuan yelled: "Go..."
Bai Cheng and the remaining few members of the Spirit Beast Sect also began to attack from the side, trying to distract the monster's attention. The junior brother clenched his fists, turned around and ran outside.
The monster became even angrier and broke Chen Wenxuan's magic sword directly. He fell to the ground like a broken kite.
"Big Brother~"
Several other people were also scattered by the demonic power and fell down.
The monster used its tail to catch the escaping junior brother. Its tail was getting tighter and tighter, and the junior brother's face slowly turned purple, and his expression was extremely painful.
Chen Wenxuan didn't care about the injuries on his body, and stood up with his hands, "Beast, come to me if you have anything to do. Who told you to touch my junior brother?" As he said that, he made complicated hand gestures with his hands. With him as the center, a golden light spread out. After a while, the surroundings began to shake, and the footsteps of various monsters were running towards this side in a chaotic and silent manner.
Most of them are foundation-building monsters, with only a few golden elixir monsters. Their pupils are all dilated, and they have no independent consciousness. They just pounce on the Yuanying monsters.
Chen Wenxuan was not feeling well as he controlled so many monsters at once. His face was as pale as paper and looked scary.
The Yuanying monster was attacked by so many low-level monsters. Even if it could defeat them, it would be very annoyed. It could only throw away the human on its tail and concentrate on dealing with these monsters.
"Nan Xiao, please take care of my junior brother first." Chen Wenxuan said towards the place where Nan Xiao was hiding, and then joined the battlefield with Baihu.
Nan Xiao: “…”
I'm just a spectator!!!
Looking at the unconscious boy lying on the ground, Nan Xiao stealthily dragged him back.
I felt his breath and he wasn't dead yet. I fed him two pills and the rest depended on his own fate.
········
"Second Brother, there's a sound over there."
"Let's go and take a look."
The group lowered their footsteps, restrained their breathing, and quietly moved to the outskirts of the cave.
"Chen Wenxuan is from the Spirit Beast Sect and is here too."
"Do you want to go up and help?" a female disciple asked
"No need. Let's take another look. That's a monster at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage. If even Chen Wenxuan can't deal with it, it will be useless for us, who are at the early stage of the Golden Core stage, to go there." Song Hui said.
The others also acquiesced to his words and remained on the sidelines, all hoping to take advantage of the situation, but they just lacked an excuse.
And Song Hui gave this excuse.
"Judging from the situation, Chen Wenxuan and the others should have gotten the item, otherwise this monster wouldn't be so persistent."
"He is worthy of being one of the three chief disciples. A peak Jindan disciple fought against a peak Yuanying disciple, and the fight was a back-and-forth fight."
"Tsk, so what? He still hasn't reached the Nascent Soul stage. My senior brother is the most powerful one." Ye Lingling's tone was quite disdainful. Although the senior brother was often not very smart about Shen Chaochao's affairs, she believed that he was the best among the younger generation in terms of strength.
"My senior brother is the most powerful." The disciple of Huanhai Sect frowned and retorted unhappily.
“·····”
While they were arguing, Chen Wenxuan, in cooperation with Baihu, had successfully captured the monster.
The disciples of the Spirit Beast Sect supported each other and gathered around Chen Wenxuan, asking with concern, "Big Brother, are you okay?"
Chen Wenxuan took out two soul-boosting pills and swallowed them, then shook his head. "It's okay, let's go."
As soon as they reached the place where Nan Xiao was hiding, before they could say anything, a group of people surrounded them.
Nan Xiao: “…”
Dude, are you guys my unlucky side?
"Oh, what a coincidence, we meet here." The speaker was Jing Zhi, the second disciple of Huanhai Sect. He said with a smile, "Long time no see, Senior Brother Chen."
After saying that, he swept his eyes over several people, guessing who was most likely to have the divine beast egg.
