1158 Sneak Attack! Terrifying Petrification Power!
Chu Feng stared at the sky for a long time.
Because he suddenly remembered.
Previously, the sloppy old man seemed to have secretly manipulated it.
If this high-level NPC was willing to help again, wouldn't things be simple?
However, Chu Feng's eyes were sore from staring.
The sky remained unchanged.
Chu Feng pursed his lips and could only retract his gaze helplessly.
Exactly at that moment.
Vaguely, it was as if a deep eye that could see the world had seen all of this.
In an old straw hut in an unknown place, the sloppy old man lay lazily on the recliner, fanning himself casually with the tattered fan in his hand.
He looked disdainful.
He muttered a few words.
"Are you threatening me?"
"I admit that I don't have a bottom line, but you seem to have used the wrong method…"
"Even if you kill all the Astral Beasts in the Starting Ground, what has it got to do with me? Those things are all manifestations of laws. Death is also rebirth. What's the difference?"
The sloppy old man was speechless.
"Only if you can become a Guardian… will you be qualified to take these things away. Perhaps it can make my heart ache. It's just that… you haven't succeeded yet, right?"
"I've already been warned the last time I helped you, but you're still not satisfied. Bah! Take your time!"
He rocked on the recliner.
The sloppy old man could not be bothered with Chu Feng's threat.
The reason was simple.
It's not like he cared!
Last time, Chu Feng was alone. The sloppy old man wanted to do him a favor, so he secretly helped him.
But this time, this guy's team was so powerful. If he slowly tried his luck, he would definitely encounter the target. The sloppy old man would not do such a thing.
He would not be very grateful!
The old man knew all about this!
On the ground, seeing that there was no reaction from his surroundings, Chu Feng could only purse his lips helplessly.
"Let's go and continue searching."
The group swept through the entire core of the Starting Ground.
None of the Lord-grade Astral Beasts they encountered could escape from their clutches.
They were killed along the way.
Even a mid-level lord could forget about escaping from such a group of bandits!
Slowly, Chu Feng discovered a pattern.
The higher the grade of the Lord-grade Astral Beast, the easier it was for treasure stores to appear around its habitat.
At least the probability was much higher.
Therefore, Chu Feng and the others focused on the mid-level Lord Astral Beasts.
For a moment, the number of times he encountered treasure shops increased greatly.
Right now, Chu Feng did not lack Astral Beast Souls. He bought all the supreme-grade treasures in the treasure shop, regardless of whether they were useful or not.
For three days, he swept through almost half of the core area of the Starting Ground. After more than ten treasure shops, he finally encountered the Seven Stars Calamity Breaking Pill!
He took it down without hesitation!
Chu Feng finally heaved a sigh of relief.
Everything was ready now!
It was time to hunt the last Astral Beast!
Chu Feng waved his hand.
Everyone soared into the sky!
Target, Sky Connecting River!
As a winding river that traversed the entire Starting Ground, it was like a long dragon entrenched on the ground.
It also nurtured countless powerful Astral Beasts.
When Chu Feng was still in the periphery, he had seen it from afar once. However, at that time, he was still very weak. Sensing the terrifying energy fluctuations in the depths of the river, he rationally chose to stay away.
And everyone's target this time was the Master of the River, Queen Medusa!
She lived at the source of the Sky Connecting River.
As they were all in the core area, Chu Feng and the others arrived at their destination not long after.
In an instant, he felt countless water vapor surging up his face.
It was misty all around.
Only because everyone's eyesight was extremely good did they not lose their way.
As far as the eye could see, not far away, a huge waterfall suddenly came into view.
It was as if the Heavenly River had leaked and poured down.
Countless surging waves flew down 3,000 feet and struck the ground, which was shaking!
Chu Feng and the others could not help but swallow.
He did not expect the so-called source to be like this.
He wondered where the other side of this waterfall was connected to.
The place where the sloppy old man was?
As Chu Feng pondered, he led the crowd forward carefully.
According to the information given by the sloppy old man, queen Medusa lived in this waterfall.
That was a genuine high-level Astral Beast!
Chu Feng could not be careless.
Even though they had swept through half of the Starting Ground these days, Chu Feng and the others still knew their limits and did not provoke those legendary high-level lords.
Unlike a mid-level lord, although there was only a difference of one rank, the difference in strength might be several times or even dozens of times!
Just think about the projection of the Demon Emperor's descent.
Later on, Chu Feng pondered for a moment.
He felt that the Demon Emperor's projection was probably about the strength of a high-level Divine Lord, right?
He almost couldn't escape from the projection!
The two mid-grade lord-level Beamon Giant Beasts were not his match!
Of course, perhaps because the Demon Emperor's realm was too high, even the power of an ordinary high-level Divine Lord could be unleashed in an unparalleled way in his hands.
However, no matter what, it made Chu Feng understand how terrifying a high-level Divine Lord was.
He quietly gestured to the people behind him to be careful.
But when everyone arrived at the edge of the waterfall, there was no sign of Queen Medusa.
Chu Feng frowned slightly.
This shouldn't be happening!
Could it be that Queen Medusa had gone out hunting?
Otherwise, when they were so close, whether they discovered the other party or were discovered by the other party, there should be reactions.
The senses of a Divine Lord martial artist were too sharp.
It was actually very difficult to perfectly conceal from each other.
Logically speaking, the moment they landed, Queen Medusa should have sensed it.
But at this moment, the waterfall was still as usual.
No one could even sense the existence of any energy fluctuations.
Even the Astral Power fluctuations that should have existed widely in the surroundings seemed to have been suppressed…
At the thought of this, Chu Feng's expression immediately changed.
He instantly sent a voice transmission.
"Be careful!"
"Queen Medusa might be waiting for an opportunity to launch a sneak attack!"
"With the help of this Sky Connecting Waterfall, she can perfectly conceal herself…"
Before Chu Feng could finish speaking, above the waterfall, two milky white beams of light suddenly swept towards everyone at lightning speed.
Queen Medusa's innate skill, Petrification!
If a life form was enveloped by this light beam, it would completely turn into a stone statue. Even their soul would be imprisoned!
The milky white light was too fast.
Even though Chu Feng had already warned them in advance, most of the people could not dodge in time!
It spread out in all directions like a light wave.
Everyone who was enveloped by the light beam inexplicably slowed down. A faint layer of stone fragments even appeared around them!
Chu Feng gasped.
"Damn! This thing's intelligence is too high! It must have sensed our arrival long ago and deliberately hid itself to ambush us!"
"And it perfectly hid from everyone!"
Chu Feng felt lingering fear.
"Fortunately, everyone had already drunk the melted medicinal water of the Seven Stars Calamity Breaking Pill. Otherwise, just Queen Medusa's sneak attack alone would have caused at least half of them to collapse!"
Seeing the scene before him, Chu Feng truly understood how terrifying the innate skill, Petrification, was.
Even though they had consumed the counter pill in advance, everyone still seemed to have been put on a Deceleration Halo.
Those who had just been touched by the light beam, no matter how strong they were, were now moving slowly like zombies.
They were so slow that they did not look like Divine Lord experts!
If they were suddenly hit in a life-and-death battle, wouldn't they have to close their eyes and wait for death?!
Chu Feng could not help but swallow.
As expected of a high-level overlord chosen by the rules…
