Dimension Paradise, I am a summoning apostle

Chapter 220 Tomb Guardian Beast

The sword spirit of the maiden directly shattered the two tomb guardian beasts with its sniping sword energy.

Debris was scattered everywhere.

"Let's go." Seeing this, Chu Danqing had Yue Lanwu lead the way.

It's the only one that's both purely melee and powerful.

Da Bao is too big; if he encounters traps or mechanisms, he won't be able to maneuver properly in this relatively narrow passageway.

As a result, Yue Lan Wu Ying had only walked less than ten meters when she stepped into a trap with a snap.

A dense barrage of arrows shot out from both sides.

Then, the flying sword swept past, and that was the end of it.

Chu Danqing has already invited a third-tier expert to protect him, so this little matter is extremely simple.

"Based on my experience, we might see rolling stones or walls of knives next," Chu Danqing joked.

"Brother Chu, isn't this a bit too childish?" Guo Ming smiled and said, "I think it's not even as good as the tomb guardian beast."

As soon as he finished speaking, the tomb guardian beasts began to move and entered the area illuminated by Chu Danqing's powerful flashlight.

Compared to the other tomb guardians that had arrived, the two tomb guardian beasts at the entrance were like the difference between a teddy bear and a Tibetan mastiff.

It exuded an extremely ferocious aura, making even the Corpse Demon pale in comparison.

Only a corpse dragon that rides the power of heaven and earth can win.

If it weren't for the dragon's escape, the corpse dragon would probably have been torn apart alive by this group of tomb-guarding beasts.

The Corpse Dragon was able to reach Rank A not because of its strength, but because of the blessing of the power of heaven and earth when it was a dragon.

Otherwise, at most it would be a B-level, which would mean sitting at the same table as the Xuan Nu Zhi who hasn't recovered yet. Once the Xuan Nu Zhi recovers, the Corpse Dragon would only be able to sit at the children's table.

"That's true, but I don't really like seeing the tomb guardian beast either," Chu Danqing complained.

In fact, he not only disliked the tomb guardian beasts, but he also disliked the entire trial world, which was truly the underworld.

Da Bao took the initiative, activating his Tear Claws and charging into the group of tomb guardian beasts to fight.

"Don't make a move yet, let Da Bao gain some experience," Chu Danqing said.

With a formidable opponent and Guo Ming backing him up, this is a perfect opportunity for Da Bao to hone his intuition and instincts.

As for the possibility of spending more money due to slower efficiency? That's not a big deal at all; there's no such thing as wanting both.

“I don’t think Da Bao can handle the big guy,” Guo Ming said, as a heavy sound came from deep inside the tunnel.

A massive black shadow entered the area illuminated by the powerful flashlight. It was a huge tomb guardian beast, with a tiger-like appearance that combined the advantages of both felines and canines.

However, the head was a bronze skull cast from a human head.

It's not just lifelike; it's actually made from a whole human head as a base, cast in bronze.

The skull's face was contorted in pain, indicating that it was not used as raw material for this tomb guardian beast after death.

Instead, they use force while the person is still alive.

This resulted in the enormous tomb guardian beast being enveloped in a terrifying resentment far exceeding that of other tomb guardian beasts.

After its death, it became a powerful monster.

Even a corpse dragon in its dragon-walking phase would probably have to give way to this tomb-guarding beast.

No wonder Zhong Ting had said before that the inside and outside of the tomb were two different worlds, and the Corpse Dragon only dared to pass by and not dare to damage the tombs at the bottom of the Yellow Dragon River.

If even the guardian beasts at the entrance to the tomb of Prince Yuanping have this kind of power, then the ones deeper inside must be even more formidable.

Upon seeing this, Da Bao immediately turned his attention to the enormous tomb-guarding beast and then pounced on it with bloodlust.

The two sides immediately started fighting.

Now that Da Bao has combat experience with large creatures and tomb guardians, his instincts and intuition have acquired corresponding combat experience.

So they were simply beaten and forced to retreat.

"Brother Da Bao's attributes and skills are too low, otherwise he could have won easily," Guo Ming said, watching the scene unfold.

Da Bao's bloodline and talent are actually quite good.

"He's just advanced, so improvement takes time," Chu Danqing said.

With only fifteen days for high-speed training, Chu Danqing had to improve her mastery skills and nurture Da Bao and Da Bai. It would be quite an achievement if she could activate Da Bao's bloodline and improve his attributes.

As Chu Danqing was speaking, he saw Da Bao being slapped against the wall by the tomb guardian beast.

Big White immediately performed overflow healing, which caused it to generate a shield.

When it hits the wall, the shield is reduced to a mere layer, which speaks volumes about its damage.

"It's a pity that leaving the water area rendered the Pulao Dragon's effect ineffective, otherwise Da Bao could have won too." As Guo Ming spoke, the Zi Shi Shen Hou Sword, the Chou Shi Da Ji Sword, and the Yin Shi Gong Cao Sword flew in unison.

With extremely swift speed, it pierced through the smaller tomb guardian beasts that were blocked by Yue Lan Wu Ying, and disintegrated them all with a single sword strike.

At the same time, it immediately struck the raised right palm of the large tomb guardian beast. If this palm strike landed solidly, even with the shield that Da Bai had added to Da Bao, it might not be able to withstand it. Therefore, Guo Ming chose to save people first, and then the remaining two flying swords arrived. One was used to sever the tomb guardian beast's neck, and the other was used to attack its head.

His three sword strikes were indeed very effective. The tomb guardian beast's right hand was pinned firmly to the passageway, restricting its movement. Its head first suffered a piercing injury, and then its neck was severed on the spot.

When the head fell off, the cross-section of the neck exposed a large number of tangled corpses, emitting a strong stench.

This enormous tomb guardian beast was not made by just one person, but rather its interior was filled with people.

At first glance, it looks like a bronze dumpling wrapper containing a large lump of unminced corpse filling.

Guo Ming's expression changed, and he decisively used a spell to clear away the smell.

Chu Danqing and Da Bao were protected by shields, Da Bai was in Chu Danqing's mind, and Huang Tian Zhi Zi, Gui Yuan Mu, and Yue Lan Wu Ying were completely ignored.

As for the beast-faced armored warriors, their summoning was canceled because they were afraid they wouldn't be able to use their skills effectively once inside the tomb.

Chu Danqing then had Da Bai cast an overflow healing shield on Guo Ming and the Su Nu sword spirit to isolate them.

It wasn't just to block out odors; the stench was actually harmful, corroding the shield on my body.

The tomb guardian beast was not dead yet; instead, it stretched out its left hand and caught its fallen head, intending to put it back in place.

However, Guo Ming was faster. The two flying swords passed each other and instantly tore the tomb guardian beast's body into three pieces.

The tomb guardian beast collapsed with a crash, and the corpse inside its body flowed out like water.

"No treasure chest?" Chu Danqing was also puzzled when he saw this.

"No, he's not dead yet." Guo Ming said, as the three flying swords returned, pulling Da Bao back with them.

Before Chu Danqing could ask what was going on, he saw the corpse that had flowed out of the tomb guardian beast stand up in a strange posture.

Because the corpses were stuck together, it was extremely horrifying when they stood up.

“There are indeed quite a few tricks to it.” Guo Ming said, taking out a red gourd from his storage bag: “Fortunately, the Guo family is quite wealthy.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he threw the red gourd towards the tomb guardian beast and the horde of strange corpses.

In an instant, it exploded into a raging inferno.

The tomb guardian beast and the horde of strange corpses were immediately engulfed. Before long, the former was burned into a pool of molten copper, while the latter turned into ashes.

"You can't even kill me?" Chu Danqing was genuinely surprised.

"No, it's just too troublesome," Guo Ming said honestly. "Instead of wasting time, we might as well use some tricks."

Chu Danqing didn't know the quality of the red gourd, but given the Guo family's extravagance, it must be quite valuable.

Despite the death of the tomb guardian beast, no treasure chest appeared on its corpse.

“Something’s not right.” Guo Ming suddenly sensed something and said, “I thought this poisonous miasma was the work of the tomb guardian beast.”

"But now the tomb guardian beast is dead, and the original poisonous miasma has been burned away, yet it still exists."

"This means that the poisonous miasma was not carried by the tomb guardian beast, but came from the tomb itself." Guo Ming glanced at his shield value, which was still decreasing.

Chu Danqing didn't really feel much, because the lost shield value wasn't recovering as quickly as it had.

Guo Ming was powerful and had excellent perception, which is why he noticed the subtle changes.

Otherwise, if it were Chu Danqing, at most she would only smell some stench.

"Don't worry for now, I'll have Big White keep an eye on our shields," Chu Danqing said.

The shield strength of overflow healing may not be high, but the effect is very good, especially when everyone present is at full health.

Big White immediately performs group healing, which provides a double shield buff. Although the shield provided by group healing only lasts for thirty seconds, it can be stacked to a maximum.

The only downside is that each stack of shields is calculated independently rather than being stacked.

"They gave me a hard time as soon as I walked in. No wonder it's an S-level series of missions." Chu Danqing didn't think anything was wrong.

Don't be fooled by how quickly the Tomb Guardian died; it was because he had Guo Ming, a Tier 3 character, as his main damage dealer. If he were relying solely on Da Bao and Huang Tian Zhi Zi, the Tomb Guardian would have been a formidable opponent.

“This time, Su Nu and I will lead the way. Brother Chu, you should have Brother Da Bao and Yue Lan Wu Ying protect you from the rear.” Guo Ming immediately adjusted his strategy.

The S-rank did indeed make him feel wary.

If this difficult part had been left until the end, Guo Ming would have simply chatted happily with Chu Danqing, treating it as a spring outing.

That won't work now; we can no longer underestimate them.

Chu Danqing's advancement in rank made him realize that the Paradise was also starting to increase in intensity.

"Alright, then I'll trouble you, Brother Guo." Chu Danqing certainly wouldn't stubbornly insist on going first.

It is perfectly reasonable for a summoner like him to be protected in the center.

After making the arrangements, Guo Ming used three flying swords to protect everyone, while he himself walked in front holding the Su Nu Sword. The Su Nu Sword spirit floated behind Guo Ming to provide support and also to keep an eye on Chu Danqing's safety.

Guo Ming possesses a foundation in swordsmanship/proficiency, a clear understanding of sword intent, and sword techniques. Naturally, his tacit understanding with the Plain Maiden Sword and its spirit is extremely close.

They don't even need to speak; they know it with a thought.
