Chapter 2341 The Devouring Giant Rat, the Jinling Mountains in Turmoil
Wow!
The moment the densely packed, powerful demonic beasts converged on the two of them, Jin Xuan was terrified and her face turned pale.
"So many monsters! We're in big trouble this time!" Jin Xuan said, extremely nervous.
As she spoke, she flipped her hand, and a long sword was already firmly in her grasp.
Immortal power was frantically poured into the immortal sword.
Be prepared to take action at any time.
Unexpectedly, Chen Xuan remained calm.
He looked at the approaching demonic beasts and was shocked to find that the highest cultivation level of these demonic beasts was only half a step into the Golden Immortal realm.
If he and Jin Xuan joined forces, although it would be more difficult, it wouldn't be impossible to deal with them.
"What's the panic, fairy? These demonic beasts aren't very powerful. Although there are more of them, they're no match for you or me! Let's finish this quickly!"
Chen Xuan gave the order decisively.
Jin Xuan felt warm and immediately calmed down.
Before a large group of demonic beasts could get close, she had already swung her long sword at lightning speed.
hum!
A soft chirping sound rang out in the void.
A terrifying sword aura erupted directly from the longsword and fell towards the attacking horde of demonic beasts.
The powerful demonic beasts at the forefront, who were at the half-step Golden Immortal realm, were killed by Jin Xuan's sword before they could even utter a scream.
Chen Xuan was not idle either.
He casually swung his fist, without even using any immortal power, and easily killed the demonic beast that had quietly approached them.
Soon, the ground around the two was littered with the corpses of demonic beasts.
Seeing this, Chen Xuan did not hesitate.
With a thought, he collected all the monster corpses.
They were intended to be used as food for gold-eating worms and iron-tailed scorpions.
"go!"
With a loud shout, Chen Xuan charged towards the mouth of the valley.
With their Golden Immortal cultivation, the two of them broke through the encirclement of the horde of demonic beasts that were charging towards them in the blink of an eye.
Upon seeing this, Jin Xuan was overjoyed.
"Fellow Daoist Chen, if we go just a little further forward, we can safely leave this valley!"
"Ok!"
Chen Xuan nodded.
Just as the two were about to speed up and rush out of the valley, Chen Xuan suddenly noticed something and his expression changed slightly.
The next instant, a pair of golden wings rapidly appeared on his back.
A thunderous roar followed.
Chen Xuan vanished from his spot in a flash.
Almost simultaneously, a stream of light, as thick as a bowl, appeared out of thin air.
They charged straight past where Chen Xuan was standing.
Wherever this streak of light passed, the surrounding immortal energy was completely consumed.
Chen Xuan even clearly felt that the surrounding power of rules was being devoured by this stream of light.
"This……"
Chen Xuan's pupils suddenly shrank.
An indescribable sense of crisis suddenly welled up from the depths of his heart.
Before he could activate the Heavenly Illusion Demon Eye, another terrifying stream of light struck him directly.
"not good!"
Chen Xuan was shocked.
Thunderwing activated again, dodging the second attack.
At this moment, Chen Xuan dared not be careless anymore.
He directly activated the Heavenly Illusion Demon Eye to its maximum.
Before long, Chen Xuan spotted a rat-like monster with snow-white fur at the entrance of the valley, which was lurking in the shadows and ready to ambush.
"This is... a Heavenly Fragrance Rat? No, a Heavenly Fragrance Rat doesn't have such powerful cultivation!"
"If I'm not mistaken, this demonic beast's cultivation level should have reached the peak of the early Golden Immortal stage. It's not far from the mid-Golden Immortal stage!"
"However, we didn't see it when we came in. Could it be that this thing discovered us all along and deliberately hid in the shadows, using the Lingxiao Jade Pearl Fruit as bait, waiting for us to walk into its trap?"
Upon realizing this, Chen Xuan broke out in a cold sweat.
Since embarking on the path of cultivation, Chen Xuan has experienced countless dangers.
But this is the first time I've been outmaneuvered by a monster like today.
"Heh, this is interesting. I'd like to see just who you are!"
Chen Xuan sneered secretly.
He secretly activated the Heavenly Illusion Demon Eye, directly locking onto the early-stage Golden Immortal demon beast hiding in the shadows.
"Fairy, I'll leave these monsters chasing us behind to you for now."
"Leave this early-stage Golden Immortal demon beast hiding in the shadows ahead to me!"
Chen Xuan gave an order and ignored Jin Xuan, fully activating the Dragon-Seeking Sword.
hum!
A soft chirping sound rang out.
The Dragon-Seeking Sword transformed into a blur, charging directly towards the early-stage Golden Immortal demon beast.
To Chen Xuan's surprise, the demonic beast that blocked his path showed no sign of trying to dodge.
Even when he saw the Dragon-Seeking Sword coming, a hint of mockery appeared in his eyes.
This made Chen Xuan's heart pound with fear.
An indescribable sense of crisis also welled up from the depths of his heart.
"This……"
Chen Xuan didn't dare to be careless.
With a thought, he forcibly retrieved the Dragon-Seeking Sword.
At that moment, the early-stage Golden Immortal demon beast that had blocked Chen Xuan's path opened its mouth and spewed out a dense cloud of silver light that enveloped the Dragon-Seeking Sword.
Wow!
The moment the silver light scattered, a terrifying devouring power appeared domineeringly in mid-air.
The Dragon-Seeking Sword, which was connected to Chen Xuan's mind, became fearful and trembled incessantly.
Chen Xuan found it increasingly difficult to control the Dragon-Seeking Sword.
He wanted to take complete control of it, but found that the terrifying devouring power surrounding the Dragon-Seeking Sword seemed to want to snatch it from his hands.
"Chen Ling!"
In a moment of desperation, Chen Xuan immediately roared.
The sword spirit Chen Ling appeared swiftly in mid-air, directly separating from the Dragon-Seeking Sword's main body.
Almost simultaneously, Chen Xuan's powerful divine sense from his Niwan Palace struck the brow of the early-stage Golden Immortal demon beast with a whoosh.
boom!
The terrifying impact of divine sense, as if it were a tangible substance, landed on the brow of the early-stage Golden Immortal demon beast.
The terrifying attack of divine sense caused the early-stage Golden Immortal demon beast's expression to change drastically.
The terrifying devouring power it unleashed also slightly solidified at this moment.
Upon seeing this, Chen Ling forcibly retrieved the Dragon-Seeking Sword and swiftly placed it into Chen Xuan's dantian.
"That was close! If I hadn't used my divine sense to interrupt this guy's attack and forced Chen Ling to retrieve the Dragon-Seeking Sword, it would probably have devoured my Dragon-Seeking Sword."
"It resembles a rat demon, yet it excels at devouring. Could this be the infamous Devouring Giant Rat?"
Upon realizing this, Chen Xuan immediately felt as if he were facing a formidable enemy.
A colossal rat that devours the heavens!
This is an ancient demon beast with an extremely powerful Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python bloodline.
Moreover, the bloodline of devouring within his body is extremely concentrated.
That is why this giant rat, at the early stage of the Golden Immortal realm, was able to devour Chen Xuan's natal sword.
Fortunately, Chen Xuan discovered it in time. With the help of the sword spirit, he forcibly interrupted the Devouring Rat's spellcasting and snatched back the Dragon-Seeking Sword.
Otherwise, he would have suffered a great loss this time.
"Boy, it's quite a surprise that you were able to dodge my attack!"
"However, since you recognize that my true form is the Devouring Sky Rat, and you still dare to remain so calm, it seems you have quite a background!"
"I'm curious, just who are you?"
The giant rat that devoured the sky chuckled coldly and actually spoke in human language.
Soon, the Devouring Giant Rat vanished from its spot.
Only one elegant man in white stood gracefully at the entrance of the valley.
Sensing the aura emanating from the white-robed man, Chen Xuan instantly realized that the white-robed man before him was the Devouring Rat who had just ambushed him.
"Hmph, fellow Daoist, with such cultivation, you are no ordinary person. Why did you ambush me?"
Chen Xuan snorted coldly, his expression extremely unfriendly.
Upon hearing this, the Devouring Rat sneered, "Fellow Daoist, that's a difficult question for me to answer. This valley is my Daoist temple. You two came to my Daoist temple and stole my Lingxiao Jade Pearl Fruit. It would be merciful of me not to grind you to dust on the spot."
Upon hearing this, Chen Xuan and Jin Xuan's expressions changed slightly.
"We didn't see you here when we arrived. How can you prove that this is your Daoist temple?"
Jin Xuan retorted, unconvinced.
"Hehe, this fairy is quite interesting. The two of you have been lingering outside my dojo for two days without daring to come in. In order to let you in with peace of mind, I have been keeping my aura hidden, for fear of disturbing you. Now that you have fallen into my trap, I will not let you leave no matter what!"
The giant rat that devoured the sky grinned menacingly.
The next instant, he grabbed at the air with his palm, and a terrifying claw of rule power directly enveloped Chen Xuan.
The Devouring Giant Rat was perfectly aware of this.
Don't be fooled by the fact that Jin Xuan's cultivation level seems to be higher than Chen Xuan's.
But the sense of crisis that Chen Xuan brought him far exceeded that of Jin Xuan.
That's why the Devouring Giant Rat planned to deal with Chen Xuan as soon as possible.
"court death!"
Chen Xuan sneered, and the Vajra Dharma Form was fully activated.
Wow!
Behind Chen Xuan, a wrathful Vajra Dharma image, sixty feet in size, rapidly took shape.
And in response to the attack from the Devouring Giant Rat, he swiftly threw a punch.
boom!
This strike was simple and unadorned!
It directly destroyed the attack of the Devouring Giant Rat on the spot.
Seeing that his casual attack had failed to gain the upper hand, the Devouring Rat gave a sinister smile.
With a single opening of its mouth, it spewed out a dense mass of devouring power, enveloping Chen Xuan and Jin Xuan.
"Go back!"
While reminding Jin Xuan, Chen Xuan also activated his divine sense attack with a thought.
Wow!
In the void, an invisible divine thought transformed into a sharp sword, directly slashing at the Devouring Heaven Giant Rat's Devouring Rule Power.
boom!
Accompanied by a loud and piercing noise.
The Devouring Rule Power unleashed by the Devouring Giant Rat was completely shattered by the Divine Sense Sword, instantly becoming harmless.
Seeing this, Chen Xuan couldn't help but look overjoyed.
Before the Devouring Giant Rat could launch an attack, he activated the Heavenly Dragon Overlord Body Technique and threw a punch at the Devouring Giant Rat.
Boom!
A piercing sound of attack rang out.
A terrifying dragon claw appeared out of thin air in front of Chen Xuan.
The next instant, it slammed down on the Devouring Giant Rat.
Upon seeing this, the giant rat that devoured the sky changed its expression drastically.
Just as he was about to activate the power of the Devouring Rule to devour it directly, Chen Xuan looked at the Devouring Giant Rat and smiled strangely.
boom!
The terrifying mental attack was unleashed by Chen Xuan once again.
A moment later, a sharp, intense pain surged from the Niwan Palace of the Devouring Giant Rat.
This caused the Devouring Giant Rat's movements to slow down considerably in an instant.
Taking this opportunity, Chen Xuan unleashed his True Dragon Claw, which slammed solidly into the Devouring Giant Rat.
In an instant, he smashed this powerful demon beast, who was at the peak of the early Golden Immortal stage, into a pulp.
When Chen Xuan saw this, he was immediately overjoyed.
After carefully examining the body with his divine sense, he confirmed that he had killed the Devouring Giant Rat and immediately stored its corpse in the Immortal Beast Tower.
Having dealt with the matter, Chen Xuan did not hesitate any longer and transformed into a streak of light, rushing out of the valley.
Little did they know that just as Chen Xuan was killing the Devouring Giant Rat, in a huge cave in the core area of the Jinling Mountains...
Wang Lang, the Lingxiao Beast King, who was in seclusion here cultivating, suddenly opened his eyes.
An uncontrollable rage also surfaced on his face.
"Damn it, did you kill my grandson? Could this old bastard surnamed Zhou be going back on his word?"
"Heh, since that's the case, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
Wang Lang cursed angrily.
The next moment, he roared to the sky.
Soon, all the monsters in the entire Jinling Mountains became extremely violent.
Even the most timid and cowardly demonic beasts now took the initiative to attack the true immortals.
For a time, the entire Jinling Mountains were filled with panic, as if facing a formidable enemy!
