Chapter 368: How to Deal with Earth Demons and Celestial Demons, Have You Forgotten Everything?
Chapter 368: How to Deal with Earth Demons and Celestial Demons, Have You Forgotten Everything?
Liu Xingwan's thoughts were as clear as crystal.
In the past, although she and Su Chen were from the same sect, she didn't really know him.
As a core disciple of the Cloud Yang Sect, Liu Xingwan rarely interacted with most of the other disciples.
The training, competitions, and other experiences she had with Fu Jianyun were vastly different from those of the other disciples.
Su Chen was only an inner sect disciple back then.
In Liu Xingwan's eyes, Su Chen would only glance at her in the crowd.
There was no communication between them, and he could say that he didn't listen to her advice.
But why did he add the word "always"?
Liu Xingwan's heart was in turmoil, and she felt like she was about to stumble upon the truth.
Looking at Su Chen's figure, it seemed even more similar to her memory than she had thought.
It was already past mid-morning, and if they delayed any longer, it would soon be noon.
Su Chen knew that they had to set off now.
Before nightfall, the two of them had to return to this place.
The traces of demonic beings ahead were becoming more and more frequent, and if they stayed inside after nightfall, they might face constant danger.
As they moved forward, Su Chen carefully observed the surrounding terrain.
Remembering these geographical locations would be an important factor in their survival.
The two of them continued towards the northeast.
The traces of demonic beings around them were indeed too numerous, and even with the help of a Demon Finder's abilities, it was difficult to find a completely correct path.
It could only be said that in this area, there were frequent movements of Earth Demons and Celestial Demons.
The surroundings were definitely the living areas of those demonic beings.
The anomaly on the east and south sides of the Great Zhou Dynasty was likely to be located nearby.
Su Chen didn't expect to find the hiding place of the demonic beings on his first trip.
Today, he was just trying to search.
If they couldn't find anything in the northeast, they would change direction and head east.
If they couldn't find anything in the east, they would continue to change direction and search.
With so many traces of Earth Demons and Celestial Demons here, there must be something wrong.
The two of them continued towards the northeast, with Liu Xingwan following behind Su Chen, constantly looking at his back.
She didn't want to believe it.
But Su Chen and Chen Su's figures and silhouettes were indeed very similar.
In silence, they continued forward, with Su Chen watching the road and Liu Xingwan watching Su Chen.
In the wilderness of the northeast, after a stretch of chaotic tracks, the traces began to diminish, leaving only the marks of the Celestial Demons.
The marks were clear and distinct, which made it easier for Su Chen to observe.
In the wilderness, towering trees stood tall, their leaves blocking out the sun, not allowing a single ray of sunlight to penetrate.
This also resulted in a lack of weeds and shrubs on the ground.
As they walked, they felt quite relaxed, much easier to navigate than those shrubbery areas.
After climbing over a hill, Su Chen noticed something amiss.
The originally clear and distinct traces of the Celestial Demons suddenly disappeared after climbing the hill.
The disappearance occurred at the edge of the hill.
On the other side of the edge was a deep canyon.
However, due to the obstruction of the mountain, Su Chen couldn't see the situation below clearly.
Su Chen had already predicted that the canyon was likely the source of the anomalies.
He turned to look at Liu Xingwan.
Su Chen wanted her to stay and wait here, but judging from her expression, she was unlikely to agree.
Having come this far, she would probably be even less willing to stay.
With a sigh, Su Chen didn't bother to say anything. He led Liu Xingwan to find a gentler slope and started descending.
Throughout the descent, Su Chen's gaze remained focused on the surrounding terrain, carefully observing the area.
In Liu Xingwan's eyes, this scene became increasingly similar to what she had witnessed before.
In the past, when she had entered the wilderness with Chen Su, he had also paid close attention to the surrounding terrain.
At that time, Liu Xingwan had looked down on him.
She thought Chen Su was making a mountain out of a molehill, why was it necessary to be so cautious?
But the subsequent events proved that Chen Su's approach was correct.
That was the true way to ensure their safety.
As they approached the canyon, Su Chen became increasingly vigilant.
With the enhanced vision and hearing of a Demon Hunter Expert, he carefully observed the surroundings.
Due to the mountain range's orientation, the canyon appeared somewhat secluded.
If one had to describe it differently, it would be somewhat damp.
Step by step, they moved forward.
Su Chen signaled to Liu Xingwan behind him to take as light steps as possible.
Although they hadn't spotted any traces of demonic beings, Su Chen had already sensed the presence of Celestial Demons.
It was a very clear presence of Celestial Demons.
The previous speculations were correct.
The source of these anomalies was indeed the Celestial Demons.
But what were these Celestial Demons planning? Why were there so many missing demonic beings, even causing the frontline defense to be free of any small demon attacks for several months?
As they continued descending towards the canyon, the two of them even circled around.
And after circling around with the terrain, the scene before them seemed somewhat eerie.
Large and small demonic beings were lined up, falling into a crevice.
Above the crevice was a large boulder.
The boulder was lifted and then lowered.
The demonic beings that entered the crevice perished instantly.
Despite knowing the fatal outcome, these demonic beings continued to enter one after another.
The blood flowed forward along the crevice, and the pungent stench of blood permeated the air.
Su Chen and Liu Xingwan both furrowed their brows at the sight before them.
The scene unfolding before them basically indicated that the celestial demons were definitely up to something strange and bizarre here.
It was very likely that they would bring devastating harm to the entire Great Zhou.
The two slowed their pace, and after passing through a narrow pass, Su Chen saw something in the distance.
Astonishingly, three celestial demons were gathered together!
Three celestial demons!
One was enough to turn the Great Zhou upside down, and here, there were three.
And from their appearance, it seemed like they were cultivating for advancement.
A terrifying thought suddenly popped into Su Chen's mind.
Were these celestial demons planning to take this opportunity to advance further?
Above the celestial demons, the Demon Emperor?
In the Shadowplain Battlefield at the Jin Chu border, various regions where celestial demons appeared were places where the Demon Emperor's figure might only appear once every few decades or even centuries.
And every time the Demon Emperor appeared, the world would suffer a great calamity.
The fall of powerful warriors would become commonplace during the era of demon activity.
And this was the Demon Emperor appearing at the border of Jin and Chu.
If it appeared at the border of the Great Zhou Dynasty, it would likely bring about the destruction of the nation.
The Demon Emperor could very well cause the annihilation of the entire Great Zhou.
At this very moment, a chilling aura instantly projected towards them.
On the cliff to their right, an earth demon began sprinting towards them.
This earth demon seemed to be suppressing its movements to avoid making a bigger commotion and alerting the three celestial demons.
"Run!"
Su Chen's voice was soft, but his words were urgent and left no room for error.
Hearing Su Chen's words, Liu Xingwan, whose eyesight and hearing were far inferior to Su Chen's, hadn't realized the crisis until now.
She hadn't discovered the danger yet, and upon hearing Su Chen's words, she looked around in all directions.
She wanted to see where the crisis was.
This scene made Su Chen a little angry.
By the time Liu Xingwan truly saw the source of the crisis, her life was already in danger.
Before she could react, Su Chen immediately turned back, grabbed her wrist, and quickly fled towards the distance.
Liu Xingwan subconsciously tried to break free, but the demon beast rushing towards them was already in her line of sight.
On its sharp claws, dried bloodstains and a terrifying aura enveloped it.
This earth demon's strength was no weaker than the one that had caused trouble for the Cloud Yang Sect, and it was even stronger than the one that had given the Flying Eagle Sect a hard time.
It seemed like those sharp claws could tear them both to shreds in an instant.
The two fled swiftly towards the canyon's exit.
At this moment, Su Chen's careful observation of the terrain also began to pay off.
He avoided getting lost in the chaos and directly escaping into a dead end, thus saving their lives.
With her wrist grasped by Su Chen, Liu Xingwan no longer tried to break free.
She had originally wanted to use her body technique to help Su Chen in return.
She considered it a repayment for Su Chen's earlier favor.
But at this moment, Su Chen unleashed the full power of the third layer of Cloudwalking Steps.
chastity, his figure seemed to tread upon the clouds as he easily climbed the previously steep slope.
In comparison, Liu Xingwan's body technique appeared far inferior.
Without Su Chen's assistance, she couldn't easily climb some of the steeper sections.
She had wanted to help Su Chen, but she had thought too much.
Behind them, the earth demon was a tiger that had transformed into a demon.
Its sharp claws allowed it to climb the steep slope using its own claws.
After they climbed back up the slope, Su Chen and Liu Xingwan didn't stop for a moment and continued forward.
At the same time, Su Chen took out some fireworks and quickly lit them.
In the sky, a colorful flame blossomed, accompanied by a loud boom.
This sound made the earth demon chasing them even more ferocious.
Liu Xingwan remembered the last time when she was also chased by demons in this manner.
Back then, Chen Su had saved her, leading her to escape using the terrain.
But this time, Liu Xingwan discovered that Su Chen's speed was even faster than Chen Su's.
As he pulled her along, they were actually able to gradually shake off the earth demon!
This was something Liu Xingwan had never expected.
Thinking back to how she had previously boasted about her body technique, she felt a little embarrassed.
In reality, Su Chen's body technique was so powerful that it even surpassed Chen Su's.
She had initially doubted the relationship between Su Chen and Chen Su.
But at this moment, the strength Su Chen displayed seemed different.
Could it be that Chen Su's strength had improved?
But it had only been a few months; could he have improved so quickly?
If Su Chen knew what she was thinking, he would surely scold her.
She was thinking of such strange and bizarre things at this critical moment.
With Su Chen's help, the two of them were gradually pulling away from the earth demon.
The earth demon couldn't keep up with them.
After climbing over a ridge, Su Chen pulled Liu Xingwan down and leaped.
Then, he pulled Liu Xingwan close to the mountainside, trying to conceal their figures as much as possible.
This was the advantage of not having reached the Fifth Rank Realm.
As long as they could avoid the demon's gaze, they would basically be able to escape.
Soon, Su Chen also noticed that the earth demon was chasing them from the front.
Previously, he had kept increasing his speed, so this earth demon probably thought that he and Liu Xingwan had already escaped far away.
After catching his breath, Su Chen finally turned to look at Liu Xingwan.
"Have you forgotten everything you should pay attention to when facing these earth demons and celestial demons?"
His words were a harsh criticism.
