Mortal's Purple Sky Cave Heaven

Chapter 162: Mutated Monster
The image of Barbarian Beard surrounded by the golden light was so strange. His body had grown to a size of thirty or four feet, making him look like a demon god, which was intimidating.

Nie Zhaonan's eyes lit up when he saw it, and he showed a look of envy.

This barbarian bearded man has already practiced the Totian Magic Art to an extremely high level. His body cultivation has reached the Nascent Soul stage. His defense is so strong that he can withstand attacks from ordinary magic weapons without suffering any damage.

As far as his body cultivation is concerned, there are few people in the entire human world who can match him.

At this time, not only was his whole body emitting golden thorns, but his exposed hands, feet and face were also covered with dense red spots.
Golden scales the size of copper coins.

These scales were as bright as if they were made of red gold, and they emitted a cold light, making it obvious at first glance that they were extremely strong and seemed indestructible.

What's even more strange is that there are several silver light bands circling around his huge body.

These light bands are dreamy and erratic, forming a defensive area around them.

The big stick in the mandrill's hand fell on these light bands. The light bands just paused slightly, sank inward, and then returned to normal, making it impossible for the mandrill's attack to fall on the golden scales of the barbarian bearded man.

Although Man Huzi claimed that the Tuotian Magic Art was the best defensive magic art in the Chaos Star Sea, he would never do such a stupid thing as using this art to resist a black stick that was half the size of him.

As Man Huzi dodged the black club in the mandrill's hand, a pair of dark iron gloves appeared on his hands.

It was covered with several-inch-long spikes that flashed with eerie cold light, and its shape was extremely hideous and terrifying.

Man Huzi swung his huge fist, and when the time was right, he punched the chest, abdomen, head and other parts of the mandrill covered with black hair.

'bang bang bang'

Every time his fist landed, a sharp whistling sound that could pierce through metal and stone came out of Man Huzi's mouth. The whistling sound was like huge waves, each wave higher and more fierce than the last.

The place where the mandrill received the heavy blow would sink a little, leaving a red mark and several bloody holes, and it would be knocked back several feet, but that was all.

This baboon's strength is no less than that of Barbarian Beard, and it is also a demon beast. It can be said that its skin and flesh are extremely thick, and its vitality is also extremely strong. Barbarian Beard's attacks cannot seriously injure it at all.

The reason why the mandrill was in a passive position was entirely due to the leopard-like spirit beast that was wandering around and emitting a yellow light from time to time.

This leopard is not only several meters in size like an ordinary leopard, but also covered with yellow spots. It also has a third eye on its head, with a faint flash of yellow light in its eye.

Every time the three-eyed leopard growled, the third eye on its head would immediately open wide and shoot out a beam of ochre-colored light, heading straight for the mandrill on the opposite side who was swinging a big stick with great vigor.

Whenever it saw the light column coming, the mandrill had to stop its attack, tilt its head, open its big mouth full of huge sharp teeth, and spit out a puff of gray air to meet the yellow light column.

Nie Zhaonan saw it clearly from the side. As soon as the gray gas and the yellow light touched each other, the yellow light exploded and enveloped the gray gas.

Wrapped in the yellow light, the gray gas began to solidify incredibly quickly.

Then there was a "clang" sound, and the gray gas disappeared without a trace. Instead, a gray, crystal-like object fell from the air.

There was a "click".

After falling to the ground, the gray crystal immediately shattered, and seemed even more fragile than ordinary stone.

Seeing this scene, Nie Zhaonan's eyes flashed, and he thought about it in his mind.

This three-eyed leopard is a one-of-a-kind mutant monster. The yellow beam of light it just unleashed is a strange magical power called "alienation."

Relying on this magical power, it is not surprising that the Three-Eyed Leopard can influence the battle situation of two mid-Nascent Soul warriors with his seventh-level cultivation.

'Mutated spiritual beasts' and 'wild alien species' may sound very similar at first glance, but in fact they are very different.

"Wild and exotic species" refers to some rare spiritual beasts in ancient times. In the process of time passing, due to various reasons,

As a result, their habits and appearance changed, forming a new population that had some characteristics of the ancient spiritual beasts, but was not exactly the same.

It's just that most of these spiritual beasts are extremely rare, and there aren't many of them, so it's generally difficult to find them.

Just like the mandrill in front of us is a wild and alien species, it is the only one left in this Xutian Palace, and it is almost impossible to see it in other places in the Chaos Star Sea.

Mutated spirit beasts are different, each one is unique. They are spirit beasts that have undergone some unpredictable mutations during their advancement process, resulting in drastic changes in their abilities.

Although these mutations have varying degrees of good and bad, some of the mutated abilities are extremely unique and powerful, and can even do things that ordinary spells cannot do.

The ability to turn most magical weapons and treasures, even spells and attacks, into stone is one of the more famous ones.

This ability is really sharp. There was once a cultivator in the Jindan stage who used this ability of his mutant spirit beast to kill three
Four Jindan cultivators of the same level as him were completely killed, which shocked the entire Chaos Star Sea.

From then on, the immortal cultivation world collectively referred to the strange abilities of mutated spirit beasts as the art of alienation, to distinguish them from ordinary spells.

The three-eyed leopard of Man Huzi originally only sprayed fire attacks from the third eye.

But what was shot out now was a beam of light that directly turned the unknown gray gas of the mandrill into stone. This must be something that could only happen after the spiritual beast had mutated.

You know, the appearance of mutated spirit beasts is a one in a million event, and it only happens to high-level spirit beasts above level four. Since people knew that spirit beasts could mutate, there have been only a dozen or so well-known mutated spirit beasts that have appeared in the Chaos Star Sea.

And only a small part of them have abilities that are very useful after mutation.

This makes the mutated spirit beasts even more rare.

The last mutant spirit beast appeared more than a thousand years ago in the Chaos Star Sea.

Basically, no one would expect a spiritual beast to mutate when it advances, which is a daydream.

Nie Zhaonan was not too envious of the mutated three-eyed leopard, nor did he have the idea of ​​mutating his own spirit beast.

After all, mutations can be good or bad, and the results of mutations cannot be controlled at all, so there are certain risks.

And he has a spirit beast pen to cultivate spirit beasts and subtly stimulate their potential, and all of them evolve in a good direction. The upper limit of his spirit beasts is simply not comparable to the mutated three-eyed leopard in front of him.

After watching the battle in front of him for a while, Nie Zhaonan muttered to himself that the fight between the two sides was extremely lively and noisy, but it was still unknown how long it would take to determine the winner.

Nie Zhaonan was thinking about whether he should do something, but the next moment, something strange happened.

A huge rock several meters in size smashed heavily towards the small mound where Nie Zhaonan was hiding.

The mandrill originally threw the huge rock at Barbarian Beard with the club in his hand, but Barbarian Beard dodged it with a quick move.

The huge rock, which continued to move forward, naturally fell along its trajectory and landed on Nie Zhaonan who was analyzing the situation.

With a loud bang, dirt and weeds flew all over the sky, and the small mound was instantly flattened to the ground.

Nie Zhaonan also had to fly into the air to avoid the impact of the huge rock.

At this moment, Nie Zhaonan's figure was completely exposed in front of the man and two beasts.

The effect of the unintentional attack was to terrify Man Huzi and Mandrill. They all stopped what they were doing and retreated dozens of feet away, casting slightly hostile looks at Nie Zhaonan.

The mutant monster, the three-eyed leopard, also stopped changing its position at a high speed. With a flick of yellow light, it came to the side of Man Huzi.

Looking at Nie Zhaonan standing in the air, Man Huzi scanned him with his spiritual sense and was suddenly startled.

Because he couldn't detect the slightest fluctuation of magical power on his body at this moment. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Nie Zhaonan would have been like a transparent person.

Man Huzi immediately became alert. The only person who could do this in front of him, a cultivator in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, could only be a great cultivator in the late stage of the Nascent Soul with an extremely powerful spiritual sense.

Moreover, he didn't know how long Nie Zhaonan had been hiding in this place only a hundred feet away.

This made his heart even more cloudy and gloomy, and he felt as if something was going to go wrong.

"Why is Fellow Daoist Nie hiding aside and watching? This is not what a Xinggong elder should do, right?" Man Huzi forced himself to suppress the anger in his heart, opened his mouth wide, and a buzzing sound came out of his mouth.

He had no idea of ​​Nie Zhaonan's true strength, so he had to test him with words.

And now there are three parties present, and he can't be sure whether he will join forces with Nie Zhaonan to kill the mandrill next, or there will be other situations.

After all, the relationship between the Xing Palace and both the good and evil sides is not very good. As long as either side becomes stronger, it will be strongly suppressed by the Xing Palace.

"I was just passing by here and noticed that there were fellow practitioners fighting here, so I came over to take a look out of curiosity." Nie Zhaonan glanced at Man Huzi and the two monsters without any change in his expression, and spoke in a light tone.

"In that case, how about Fellow Daoist Nie and I, Man, team up to kill this baboon? I can naturally give you a portion of the longevity fruit we obtain." Man Huzi seemed to believe what Nie Zhaonan said and invited him.

In fact, he had no choice but to believe that the biggest purpose of his trip to the Xutian Palace was to pick the longevity fruit and refine the elixir of immortality to extend his life.

Of course, we can't stay here and let him lose the opportunity to obtain the longevity fruit in vain.

Even taking the risk of inviting Nie Zhaonan to fight the baboon together is worth it. Of course, this is also because he has absolute confidence in his strength as the number one magician in Xutian Palace.

This is also a good opportunity to test the true strength of Fellow Daoist Nie.

Nie Zhaonan did not answer and thought for a moment.

Just when there was silence all around, suddenly, a clear sound of sword rang out.

Seventy-two golden flying swords shot out from his wide sleeves, flashing dazzling golden light, circling and dancing around his body.

At the same time, Nie Zhaonan opened his mouth and a small golden sword flew out. It swelled in the wind and turned into a three-foot long sword held in his hand.

Then an extremely shocking scene appeared. Those golden little swords automatically gathered towards the long sword in Nie Zhaonan's hand and condensed into it.

With the integration of the golden small sword, the momentum of the long sword became more majestic and powerful.

Upon seeing this scene, Man Huzi's face changed drastically, because Nie Zhaonan's cultivation level had been revealed without a doubt, and he had already reached the middle stage of the Nascent Soul.

The spiritual energy fluctuations faintly emanating from the golden sword were even more powerful, reaching the strength of a strike from a late Nascent Soul in the blink of an eye, and it was rapidly increasing with the continuous infusion of mana.
Not understanding what Nie Zhaonan wanted to do, Man Huzi had no choice but to use the Tuotian Magic Skill to the extreme. The golden scales on his body became even more dazzling, and he was ready to deal with this earth-shattering blow at any time.

But despite this, as soon as his eyes fell on the magic sword, Man Huzi could still feel a fatal threat from it.

This was the spiritual perception he developed through practicing the body-building exercise Tuotian Magic Art and experiencing countless life-and-death crises. It had saved his life several times in the past.

Man Huzi's expression became more serious, and he planned to use his secret technique to escape immediately if something went wrong. After all, compared to the longevity fruit, his life was more important.

The mandrill on the other side also had a look of alertness on its face, its two rough and powerful hands tightly grasping the black stick.

Without any warning, two huge green wings suddenly appeared behind Nie Zhaonan, before Man Huzi and Mandrill could see clearly what they were.

Two thunderous sounds of "puff" were heard, and Nie Zhaonan's figure immediately disappeared from the spot.

The next moment, Nie Zhaonan incredibly appeared behind the mandrill with a long sword in his hand, and then he drew out the sword without thinking.

The golden sword made a sharp blast and shot towards where the mandrill was standing below.

The moment it flew into the air, the long sword flashed with golden light and suddenly turned into a giant golden sword more than ten feet in size. The speed immediately increased dramatically, and a terrifying momentum swept out from the sword, causing ripples in the air.

The mandrill sensed the unusual movement behind it and immediately looked up. When he saw the shocking scene in front of him, he was immediately horrified!

However, its instinctive combat experience made it want to bend its legs and jump without hesitation to avoid the attack.

But it took it for granted. This sudden attack could not be easily avoided.

Along with a thunderous sound that resounded through the sky, the golden giant sword suddenly disappeared from its original spot, and when it appeared again, it was already nearby.

Knowing that he could not avoid the giant sword in front of him, a trace of madness flashed in the mandrill's eyes. He opened his ferocious and terrifying mouth and let out a loud roar that shook the sky!

A large mass of grayish-white air spewed out from the mouth. As soon as this grayish-white air appeared, the temperature around it dropped sharply, and it seemed like it was about to condense into ice out of thin air.
