Whoosh!
In a split second, the ominous red Ethereal Force shot out from the Demonic Beast towards Chen Xiaobei.
The speed and strength of a Primordial Spirit Earth-God attack could crush Chen Xiaobei a thousand times over.
Just the shockwave and repercussion effects itself was enough to rip Chen Xiaobei apart.
But as always, Chen Xiaoebi came prepared. Although his trump card was not powerful enough to fight an actual battle, it was not going to make it easy for that Demonic Beast to kill Chen Xiaobei.
“Penetrate the Nine Heavens!” Chen Xiaobei cried out softly.
The Primordial Spirit Earth-God attack may have been fast but the Penetrate the Nine Heavens allowed Chen Xiaobei to make split second movements.
Using Penetrate the Nine Heavens three times consecutively, Chen Xiaobei was able to travel as far as 30 meters, evading the daunting attack.
Rumble!
Rumble!
The Ethereal Force struck the spot where Chen Xiaobei was standing.
The immense energy unearthed the seabed until there was a giant cavity in the ground the size of a football field!
The sand was sent shooting through the water, and the undercurrent surged, sending intense tremors reverberating through the ocean!
All that sand and dirt clouding the water together with ghastly undercurrent tsunamis would have knocked a regular person unconscious – but not Chen Xiaobei!
With the Hydrophobe Orb in his belly, Chen Xiaobei was completely unaffected by the turbulent water; even the view-obstructing sand and dirt were filtered away.
That way, Chen Xiaobei did not have to worry about his environment. He only had to just swim forwards as quickly as he could.
“I was a hundred meters away from the beast when it detected me. That means that the Demonic Beast’s Divine Sense covers an area of a hundred miles.” Chen Xiaobei sped forward as he calculated aloud. “As long as I am out of its detection range, the beast won’t be able to determine my position… but I will have to steer clear of its line of sight as well!”
With Chen Xiaobei’s current cultivation, he could travel a distance of 100 meters in a matter of seconds.
As he was making his way out of the range of the Demonic Beast’s divine sense, he took out another trump card he had prepared.
“Look at my 72 Transformations!”
Chen Xiaobei activated the High-tier Prosperous Monkey Fur’s Special Ability and it turned him into an ant.
No matter how sharp the Demonic Beast’s vision was, it would never be able to find Chen Xiaobei in these wild sloshing waters saturated with sand.
Just like that, Chen Xiaobei used the chaos to escape to safety.
The Demonic Beast was not pleased with this surprise. “Huh? Where’s that little human? He’s only at the early phase of Ethereal Cultivation. How could he have escaped? That’s impossible… Inconceivable…”
For a Primordial Spirit Earth-God level Demonic Beast, letting a weak Ethereal Cultivator escape its hands was an ultimate embarrassment, a disgrace!
The beast used its divine sense to its maximum capacity, and scanned its surroundings with its cosmic eyes to search for Chen Xiaobei but to no avail! There was not a single sign of that human!
Eventually, the beast had to stop the fruitless search.
The Demonic Beast cursed under its breath, “F*ck… Could it have been a ghost…”
Our friend Chen Xiaobei was already hundreds of meters away, observing the beast from afar!
“Primordial Spirit Earth-God… really is such a pain in the ass…” Chen Xiaobei squinted. “With that Primordial Spirit ability, not a single movement can escape from it! If it were not for that, I could have turned into an insect and flown into its mouth and shoved a dog biscuit down its throat! It looks like I won’t be able to use the High-tier Prosperous Monkey Fur to force-feed any Primordial Spirit cultivation opponents… It’s going to be ridiculously difficult to get a Primordial Spirit Earth-God to become my loyal hound!”
The last time, Chen Xiaobei had used the picture of a beautiful woman in exchange for ten High-tier Prosperous Monkey Fur with Zhu Bajie. Right now, he was left with only eight and not a lot of Heavenly Dog Biscuits either.
Unfortunately, because of Earth-Gods’ Primordial Spirit ability, Chen Xiaobei would not be able to use his old trick on them.
He would have to come up with another way to get an Earth-God level loyal hound.
“Before I go, let’s find out how high is an Earth-God’s combat power!”
Previously in Atlantis, due to the direness of the situation and all the administrative things he had to tend to, Chen Xiaobei did not find out what Diao Chan’s combat power was.
Now that he had escaped the danger zone, he had all the time in the world to learn about Earth-Gods’ cultivation.
Ding!
[Your Netherspirit Battlescouter’s level is inadequate. Please upgrade before attempting to discover the person’s combat power!]
“What the hell! The Netherspirit Battlescouter is not at an Earth-God level?” Chen Xiaobei frowned as he recalled. “Hmm, in the beginning, my Netherspirit Battlescouter could not detect the cultivation of people with Pure Yang Spiritual Items. After that upgrade, it was immune to the effects of Pure Yang Spiritual Items and even had the ability of an Ultimate Protective Puppet added to it. Right now, it’s telling me to upgrade again. It appears that my Netherspirit Battlescouter is at a Spiritual Item level, and so is the Ultimate Protective Puppet! Now that the enemies I’m facing are bigger and stronger, I have to ask Yanwang to help me upgrade the Netherspirit Battlescouter! I can do that during the Qixi festival which is only two days away!”
Chen Xiaobei was a little disappointed that he did not get to discover what an Earth-God’s cultivation was like.
But this reminded him to upgrade his Netherspirit Battlescouter and Ultimate Protective Puppet as soon as possible.
If the Ultimate Protective Puppet could not withstand the attack of an Earth-God, Chen Xiaobei would lose an extremely important Life-saving Talisman.
After making a few simple calculations, Chen Xiaobei continued his journey to the sacred altar without making any stops.
Neptune’s capital planet was extremely large. Even with Chen Xiaobei’s speed, it took him a full day and night to reach his destination.
“This should be the place…” Chen Xiaobei stood over a pile of rubble, examining the place.
The area of the ruins was considerably big. It could even be compared to the entire Atlantis.
The earthquake that had taken place a few months back was a very violent one. Even the sacred altar was completely smashed to smithereens.
According to the holy emperor, there were three two-star Earth-God instruments buried under all this rubble.
But because the area of the wreck was so big and subsequently relocated by the earthquake, on top of which the current flow which shifted things around, a person would have to dig up the entire place to find the three Earth-God instruments!
After that lengthy, tedious journey, there were less than twenty-four hours left before the deadline.
Most people would never be able to find such tiny instruments under a sea of debris in such a short period of time.
But Chen Xiaobei had a way to complete this impossible task, lickety-split!
“Let me eat a Ginseng Fruit to calm myself down first!”
Chen Xiaobei smiled giddily as he took out the Ginseng Fruit which he used three million words of Zhufeng the Battlegod as an exchange. He gobbled it down in quick bites.
Ding!
