Chapter 184: The Trial of the Tower of Babel
At this critical juncture, Chen Zheng's reaction was also very fast, there was no trace of panic in his eyes, the Wu hook in his hand directly slashed through the blood basin mouth of the fierce beast with a wave, and Yelu Maitreya on the side also made a timely move, a dazzling knife flashed, and the head of the fierce beast fell directly to the ground, thanks to Chen Zheng's good body skills, hide faster or else he will be splashed with blood, and the four of them also saw the whole picture of the fierce beast.
This is a fierce beast about the size of a foot and a half, and at this time the body is in a different place, and blood is flowing all over the ground.
Moreover, this fierce beast is very miscellaneous in appearance, and it does not look like a creature that can be seen normally.
The beast's head resembled a bear, and its mouth was covered with a dense array of sharp teeth that could easily tear the throat of its prey. Even the tongue has obvious flesh thorns, and a lick can scrape off a layer of flesh. The body is also very large, the upper body is the body of a tiger, the lower body is the body of a lion, and there is a pair of wings on its broad back, maybe this is the secret of it can approach Chen Zheng quickly and silently. What's even more amazing is that this beast has two different sets of claws, and the pair in front of it seems to be the claws of a lion and tiger beast, with unusually hard hooked claws.
The latter pair turned out to be a pair of bird claws, I really can't imagine that such a huge beast is supported by the claws of birds, such a strange thing does not look like a fierce beast born of heaven and earth at all, but it is somewhat similar to the lion eagle recorded in the nameless diary of the previous disciple of the Lingwu Sect, it is not possible that this is the conspiracy of the Lingwu Sect.
Man is born of heaven and earth, and is one of all things in heaven and earth, and can comprehend heaven and earth, absorb vitality, and temper martial arts. The legendary shattered void and the realm of immortality.
And these strange beasts, war beasts, and fierce beasts are also one of all things. But there is a difference between them. The kind of beasts with some special functions that ordinary warriors often find in the wild are strange beasts, their strength varies from low to high, but the base is very large, mostly living in areas far away from the city, there are some strange beasts that are interested in watching will also be kept in the city mansions, and the lives of some strange beasts are better than the lives of the poor people in the slums.
War beasts are based on alien beasts, domesticated by humans or signed a blood contract with humans by alien beasts on their own initiative, they can hear people's words, understand people's hearts, and know human nature, to a certain extent, their minds have been slowly moving closer to humans. Such alien beasts are collectively known as war beasts, and they can generally provide a lot of combat power to their masters when the warriors are fighting, and sometimes they can even become the existence of the battle situation, which is often a force to be reckoned with. Now it is because the war beast itself has a strong combat ability or auxiliary ability, so the price of the war beast has always been high, and many small families may not even be able to afford the lowest-level war beast.
The murderer is different from the previous two, the legend is that they have been punished by God, or they are invaded by an unknown will, resulting in a great reduction in their intelligence, if they can still make friendly exchanges with people when they are still foreign beasts, then after becoming a fierce beast, they may know the instinct of eating and hunting invaders, and become a bear child who only knows how to kill and devour, but the mental power is very low.
It's not very accurate to say that bear children are actually not very accurate, because after becoming fierce beasts, their original natural abilities will be greatly enhanced, and these fierce beasts and the like are generally hidden in the deep mountains and old forests or hidden in some fierce places, and ordinary people may be able to see them once in a lifetime.
But now the four of them have seen it, and this must be counted on the head of the Lingwu Sect, not only transplanting alien beasts but also wantonly captive fierce beasts,
Chen Zheng estimated that this Babel Tower was very likely to be the place where the Lingwu Sect was specially used to breed fierce beasts. I don't know if there are any higher-level spirit beasts here.
There are very few records of spirit beasts in books, and every appearance is a big thing that can shock Beiyan.
The spirit beast is the spirit of the beast that has been blessed by the luck of heaven and earth. Not only do they have extraordinary cultivation talents, but their minds also do not belong to human beings, and they can even speak to others. Legend has it that when cultivating to the highest level, spirit beasts can even transform into human form. There is no bottleneck in the martial arts cultivation of spirit beasts, as long as there is enough vitality, and after a long period of cultivation, it can grow very independently.
There is also a very enviable thing about spirit animals, that is, supernatural powers, which are gifts from heaven and earth to spirit animals. It's incredibly powerful.
Some can kill enemies, some can bring the dead back to life, and some can turn stones into gold. Of course, this supernatural power is not unlimited, and the spirit beast has to recuperate for a period of time after each use, and it must be nourished with natural materials and earth treasures from time to time to recover its vitality.
It is rumored that today's Emperor Yan has a spirit beast, which is a dragon. That's right, you read that right, it's a dragon. It was obtained by chance when Emperor Yan was young when he traveled in Beihai, and he was extremely agile, and he was already able to speak at only three feet at that time.
The growth of this spirit beast is very fast, so many years have passed since now, it is said that it is now dozens of zhang long, and it moves slightly, which is a fluctuation of the vitality of heaven and earth.
However, spirit animals also have the advantage that they can change their body size at will. often becomes smaller, and the inch does not leave the Yan Emperor's side. Once, when there was a big sect envoy disrespectful to Emperor Yan, his words were contemptuous, and before waiting for the ministers present, he saw a black shadow flashing, and the envoy's forehead and head were gone, and there was a small long worm on Emperor Yan's wrist, which was lazily placed on Emperor Yan's hand, and there was a bloody human head under Emperor Yan's feet. Flash Dance
It is precisely because of the existence of this dragon and the strong strength of Emperor Yan himself, the current worship hall is also respectful to the Northern Yan royal family, and the previous Yan emperors are simply the ATM of the worship hall.
After killing the fierce beast, everyone's faces were more solemn.
The reason for the solemnity is not this fierce beast, if the fierce beasts here are all cultivated like this, even if there are a hundred more, a few people will not be afraid, it is the severed hand.
The blood of this severed hand is still relatively fresh, which proves that there are more than the four of them in this Babel Tower, which is a very dangerous signal. Several people came in when the Tower of Babel was open, and there was no one else in front of them, so this person was either a native of the Tower of Babel or an outsider.
It is very likely that this outsider does not use the same entrance as them, and there are other places for this Tower of Babel to enter.
In this kind of ruins that can be explored, in addition to the defense means of the ruins themselves, the most dangerous ones are these people.
For the sake of safety, Chen Zheng still put on a disguise mask and turned into a black man. He walked in the front, Tie Xiaoxiao was responsible for guiding the way in the middle, Lu Fengxian was responsible for protecting the rear of several people, and Yelu Maitreya was in the middle.
Walking forward for a distance of about two hundred meters, the four people found a corpse, the corpse's face was torn and festered, and it was impossible to see who it was, the abdomen of the person was rudely torn open, and the internal organs inside were gone, coincidentally, this corpse was missing a hand, it was very likely that this was the owner of the severed hand they met before.
The four of them were silent, several people had seen the scene of the dead, but it was the first time they had seen such a mutilated corpse that had been eaten.
Sometimes I have to sigh that human life is really fragile.
At this time, a small detail fell into the eyes of the four.
There seemed to be something pressed in the corner of this corpse, and Chen Zheng picked it with the tip of his knife, revealing a small token.
This token is still slightly cold in his hand, and there is a long sword carved above the token, and there are a few scattered snowflakes around it, this token Chen Zheng can you remember that you saw the old lady Mei Hanyun once show, so such a disciple should be a member of the Drifting Snow Sword Sect.
Tie Xiaoxiao also quickly gave an answer. This is indeed the token of the disciple of the Drifting Snow Sword Sect, I didn't expect to be killed here, looking at the corpse, there were not many traces of struggle, obviously it was directly killed by the strange beast, otherwise it wouldn't be so miserable, and there was no chance to react at all.
However, the strength of that fierce beast is actually the level of the late stage of the Qi Realm, which is a bit of a picky for the current Chen Zheng.
In the eyes of the outside world, these fierce beasts are not a murderous beast, they are all walking treasures, as long as they are killed, they will get a lot of materials. Whether it is used for alchemy refining or selling for money, it is a good choice.
At this moment, there seemed to be a roar of a beast in the distance, which seemed to be mixed with the violent gasping of a warrior.
The four of them hurriedly cheered up and prepared to go over to have a look.
Chen Zheng took a closer look and found that there were about four or five flying beasts with birds on their upper bodies and scorpions on their lower bodies chasing a female warrior dressed in blue and white. The female warrior's hair that should have been tied up was scattered on the side, there were several wounds on her body, oozing a little blood, some of the wounds were slightly purple, the woman's face was also a little black, her steps were vain, and she could only run while waving the long sword in her hand to resist the attacks of those fierce beasts.
That half-bird, half-scorpion beast seemed to be at the level of the middle stage of the Qi Realm. Not only will she use a needle on her tail, but she can also spray venom from her mouth, which has a relatively strong corrosive effect, and it can be seen from the body of this female warrior that the clothes on her body have many irregular holes, all of which are corroded by venom, some of them reveal their white skin, and some of them are further eroding the flesh and bones of the warrior.
Chen Zheng recognized that this woman's clothes were the same as the corpse just now, and she should be a disciple of the Drifting Snow Sword Sect. Because the old lady is a disciple of the Drifting Snow Sword Sect, and Yan Luo is also a peerless student of the Drifting Snow Sword Sect, plus it was because of the Drifting Snow Sword Sect's care of Chen Yuanlong and his wife that the two were not completely taken away by the people of the North Hades Palace, and today they happened to meet a disciple of the Drifting Snow Sword Sect, Chen Zheng didn't mind helping her.
It just so happened that Chen Zheng was now trying to see if there was anything powerful about the new Wild Fury.
Chu Feiyan, a disciple of the Drifting Snow Sword Sect who was running away there at this time, was now secretly complaining in his heart. In recent years, because of the qualification problem, the Drifting Snow Sword Sect has fewer and fewer disciples, although it wants to maintain the elite policy, but the number of disciples has not improved, there is really no way, the Drifting Snow Sword Sect has relaxed the conditions of the sect, and the number of lower-level disciples has increased.
It was at that time that Chu Feiyan was lucky enough to enter the mountain gate of the Drifting Snow Sword Sect. However, Chu Feiyan's qualifications are indeed very ordinary, and the people in the same batch as her have now entered the Luck Realm early and entered the inner gate to cultivate, and the ears below the Luck Realm can only be counted as the outer gate.
Chu Feiyan's cultivation has been trapped in the late stage of the Qi Realm for almost three years, without any progress, and almost regressed, until the Sword Immortal Chu Feiyan didn't find out what was wrong with him, could it be that he was really talented.
It is because she started relatively early, but her cultivation has always been fixed in the late stage of the Deqi Realm, and now she is known as the senior sister of the outer gate, which sounds very majestic, but in fact, Chu Feiyan herself is also very ashamed.
This is in order to comfort her, and she has been familiar with the operation process of the outer gate for so many years, so she arranged such a position.
But Chu Feiyan was not reconciled at all, especially when she saw that the new disciples were about to enter the realm of luck and worship the inner gate in less than three years, her heart was even more anxious.
In order to provide for her cultivation, her father and mother also had a lot of pressure, she was just born in an ordinary family, if she hadn't been under the Drifting Snow Sword Sect, she would probably have married her husband and children a long time ago.
Chu Feiyan still remembers the smiles on his parents' faces and a hint of sorrow in his eyes when he was selected as a disciple by the Drifting Snow Sword Sect.
It was good news when her daughter could become a martial artist, but she also thought that there was a lack of labor in the family, and she was selected as a disciple by the sect to be able to cultivate in the mountain gate, and whether she could go down the mountain or not depended on the arrangement of the sect, Chu Feiyan's family still had several younger brothers and sisters to support, and the pressure on the family was very great.
This time, I heard that there are many miracles in the Tianyuan Secret Realm, Chu Feiyan fought hard to get the quota, and after coming in, he was still happy, thinking that such a strong Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi would definitely allow him to break through, but he didn't expect that after meditating for a long time, the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi absorbed a lot, but not a drop flowed into his dantian, and he didn't know where he went.
Discouraged, Chu Feiyan ran into a junior brother who was traveling with him, and the two walked together, and entered the Tower of Babel inexplicably, but he didn't expect that a fierce beast suddenly appeared after just walking for a while, and he directly gave the junior brother a fatal blow. Chu Feiyan couldn't beat such a burly beast, so he had to run, but he didn't expect to turn his head and run into these half-bird, half-scorpion monsters, originally thought that they were all some birds in the middle of the Qi Realm, and he couldn't deal with it? The result far exceeded Chu Feiyan's expectations, it was she who was beaten by these birds.
After running for so long, coupled with the toxins in her body slowly attacking, Chu Feiyan only felt that her eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, and she could fall over at any time, but she was really unwilling, her dream of being a martial artist had not yet been realized, and her parents and siblings at home had not seen each other for more than a year, how much she wanted to see them again, but now these are very likely to become extravagant hopes.
