Xiuxian, I can travel to another world

Chapter 302 Rock Armored Crocodile
"Shh!"

As the passage neared its closing, another figure appeared.

Several major forces turned their attention to the newcomer, but after seeing who it was, most of them shook their heads and sighed.

Only the Mingxu Sect was greatly shaken.

"Senior Brother Liao!"

"Junior brother!"

"Sect Master, Uncle Zhu." Liao Mo, with a full head of white hair, was also an Eight-Aperture Innate cultivator like Shi Chuan. He bowed to the two of them with a solemn expression and took out three storage bags from his body to present them.

Ok?
Pei Jingque raised an eyebrow slightly.

The storage bags of the Mingxu Sect have unique markings, and two of the storage bags that Liao Mo took out did not belong to his own sect.

and so……

Did they rob others?

As the thought crossed his mind, Pei Jingque remained expressionless, and with a flick of his fingers, he sealed the storage bag.

"Let's talk about it when we get back."

Liao Mo is Zhai Qingfeng's man, so the supplies in the storage bag naturally belong to the sect and Zhai Qingfeng. It's not too late to check them after we go back and seal them with magic. Moreover, the traces of the magic will ensure that no one steals the contents.

Talk about it.

Although Zhai Qingfeng didn't come this time, he probably gained the most.

Not only did Liao Mo bring back three storage bags, but another person also safely emerged from the secret realm.

On the contrary, Liu Huang'er, Pei Jingque, and Zhu Ju, each of their three juniors, have yet to return.

"Time is up."

Seeing the increasingly unstable passageway to the secret realm, Xu Canglan spoke in a muffled voice:
"Everyone, please take back your jade tokens!"

"Sect Leader Xu." Zhu Ju stepped forward.
"Could we wait a little longer?"

"It's pointless." Xu Canglan shook his head.

“A day has passed. Even if they were injured, the people inside could have crawled to the node. If they haven’t returned by now, they have most likely perished. No one has ever returned on time.”

"Junior brother," Pei Jingque sighed, offering his advice:
"it's useless."

"Fellow Daoist Zhu is so kind-hearted, why let important people in?" Zhao Yongze shook his head, puzzled.

“High-grade spirit stones can delay the entrance to the secret realm for a while, but I, Zhao, will not wait.”

With that, he raised one hand and retrieved the Zhao family jade tablet.

The incomplete Five Elements Locking Spirit Plate immediately caused the spatial rift to become unstable, and the passage began to close.

Zhu Ju frowned.

"Ugh!"

Seeing this, Pei Jingque shook his head slightly, flicked his sleeve and threw out a high-grade spirit stone, which disappeared into his own jade tablet.

"Everyone, I'll wait with my junior brother a little longer."

One high-grade spirit stone can theoretically be exchanged for one hundred mid-grade spirit stones, but in reality, it is far more than that.

Most of them require 130 to 140 mid-grade spirit stones to exchange for a high-grade spirit stone.

In the eyes of many Foundation Establishment cultivators, the value of a single high-grade spirit stone far exceeds that of a Qi Refining Innate cultivator.

"Well."

The Wu family patriarch retrieved the jade tablet:

"If Sect Leader Pei is willing to wait, then we will take our leave."

The Wu family had made a great haul on this trip, but it wasn't safe to keep so many valuable items on his person, so he was eager to return home.

The Seeking Immortals Sect and the Zhao family also took their leave.

"Sect Leader Pei."

Dong Yuelan of the Hundred Flowers Sect had sparkling eyes:
"Do you need us to stay here with you?"

"No need," Pei Jingque shook his head.

“This trip will take nearly half a year to complete. Fellow Daoist Dong should return as soon as possible. We may have other things to do.”

"Alright."

Dong Yuelan thought for a moment, then cupped her hands in acknowledgment:
"Farewell!"

…………

Secret realm.

"Shh!"

A figure crashed through the rocks and leaped out from the ground.

"Pooh!"

"Bah!"

Xi Chen spat out dirt, wiped his face with both hands, took out a talisman, and looked in the direction indicated.

"It's over!"

"There's no time."

"Who would have thought that there was another world beneath this secret realm? Although it is dangerous, it also contains many treasures. I was trapped inside and almost couldn't get out."

He quickly ran up a hillside, looked at the distant landmark, and let out a low roar as he charged forward with all his might.

"The passage is still there!"

"Fight!"

He took out a spiritual fruit from his storage bag, swallowed it whole, and his aura surged, reaching the late stage of the Innate Realm.

"Shh!"

"Swish!"

fast!
He frantically squeezed out his inner energy, his body moving like lightning as he sped towards the passage.

Time passes little by little.

Wangshan is a dead horse.

What appears to be a close place is actually extremely far.

Fortunately, for some reason, the passage that should have been closed was still flashing with light, which gave Xi Chen hope.

fast!
Faster!
"what!"

Xi Chen roared to the sky, veins bulging on his neck, and lunged forward with both hands and feet.

Gradually.

The spiritual light in the passage became increasingly clear.

Ten miles!

Bali!

Five miles!

……

"I am back!"

With a low growl, Xi Chen lunged forward.

"Peng!"

He smashed a large tree to pieces.

Just as his fingers were about to touch the guiding light, the secret passage closed completely.

Xi Chen lay on the ground, staring blankly at the dissipating spiritual light before him, until despair set in.

"No!"

"Just a little bit more, just a tiny bit more..."

The indignant roars echoed in all directions.

a long time.

Xi Chen, who was slumped on the ground with lifeless eyes, felt something licking his fingers and slowly moved his head.

"Little Leopard".

He sat up straight, hugged the spirit beast he had taken in underground, and looked up at the sky. "We still have a chance."

"The passage will reopen in twenty or thirty years, and we will be able to get out then."

"Sister, Master..."

"Wait for me, I will not give up."

outside world.

Looking at the completely sealed gap, now silent, Zhu Ju sighed helplessly, utterly giving up hope.

It seems Xi Chen's good luck has run out, and he has lost his life in the secret realm.

As his master, he had done everything he could to stall for time, and there was nothing more he could do if things continued.

"Senior sister, I'll return the spirit stones to you when we get back."

"It's alright," Pei Jingque chuckled.

"I also want to see if a miracle will happen."

"Junior brother, let's go..."

"Ok?"

Before she could finish speaking, she suddenly turned her head to look into the depths of the thick fog, her face showing surprise and doubt.

"It's a third-tier demonic beast!" Zhu Ju's expression darkened.
"It should be the same one we encountered a while ago. Let's find somewhere to hide quickly."

*

"boom!"

A stone pillar, hundreds of meters long and as thick as a dozen people could hug, shot into the sky, sending a huge phantom flying.

"What a beast!"

In the darkness, someone sneered:
“I have been entangled with you for half a year, but I did not expect you to still have the strength. It seems that you are no ordinary demon.”

"but……"

"This time, you are doomed!"

"Shh!"

A sharp, cold glint flashed through the thick fog, instantly traversing several miles to strike.

magic weapon!

Sharp Gold Micro-dust Needle!
In order to deal with this target, the cultivator surnamed Leng borrowed a magical artifact from a friend that was specifically designed to counter rough-skinned and tough demons.

"puff!"

"Roar……"

The roar was like thunder, shaking all directions.

A massive figure burst forth from the ground, its forelimbs slamming into the earth. The hard ground rippled like water, and countless thick stone pillars shot into the sky, hurtling towards the figure in mid-air.

Although the sharp metal needles injured it, they also thoroughly enraged this third-tier demon beast.

The primordial energy of heaven and earth within a radius of tens of miles was in complete chaos.

The earth elemental energy condensed in the air, transforming into sharp stone pillars that shot out in a chaotic and frenzied manner.

"Roar!"

The roar was like thunder, and the energy surged.

A burst of magical inspiration appeared.

…………

Dozens of miles away.

Mingxuzong and his group hid behind a low hill, feeling the fierce wind, their faces turning pale.

"A third-tier demonic beast..."

Gu Rusong's body trembled:
"It's that terrifying?"

They were probably dozens of miles away from the core of the battle, yet they still couldn't withstand the aftershocks.

If we get close...

Compared to third-tier demonic beasts and Golden Core masters, innate Qi cultivators are like ants that are easily defeated.

"It's a Rock Armored Demon Crocodile!"

Pei Jingque's beautiful eyes flickered, her voice trembling:

"It's a Tier 3 Rock Armored Crocodile!"

"Senior Sister knows about this demon?" Zhu Ju asked in a low voice.
"To be able to withstand the combined attack of a Golden Core Grandmaster and a third-tier demon beast without falling behind, this demon's strength is truly remarkable."

"Mm." Pei Jingque nodded and transmitted his thoughts:

"Junior brother, do you remember that I once mentioned that a Golden Core senior from our sect was trapped nearby?"

"I remember." Zhu Ju's eyes flickered slightly.
"Is that senior related to this demonic beast?"

"Not bad." Pei Jingque took a deep breath, her beautiful eyes sparkling.
"The Rock Armored Crocodile is ferocious by nature and extremely difficult to tame. There happened to be one with that senior. I suspect that this monster is the one with the senior."

"According to common sense, after the master dies, the tamed spirit beast will guard his body."

"so……"

"The place where that senior fell must not be far from here!"

Zhu Ju took a deep breath.

Even if the only thing left in the legacy of a Golden Core Grandmaster is a personal magic weapon, it is still an enormous harvest.

but……

He asked in a low voice:
"Will the Rock Armored Crocodile show mercy to the descendants of its predecessors?"

“This…” Pei Jingque gently shook her head:

"probably not."

"These kinds of monsters are ferocious by nature. It's rare for them not to turn on their masters. If they encounter us, they probably won't show any mercy."

"A third-tier demonic beast." Zhu Ju frowned.
"Too dangerous."

Back in the East Sea, he had been chased by a third-tier demonic beast and had to flee for more than half a year.

If he hadn't been able to escape to another world for a while, he would have perished on his way back.

Even so.

It was only by throwing away the thing that attracted hatred that the third-tier demon beast was able to save its life.

Therefore, he was well aware of the dangers of third-tier demonic beasts.

"Junior brother."

Pei Jingque whispered:

"We don't need to provoke the Rock Armored Crocodile, and it probably doesn't have time to deal with us right now."

"While they're still at it, let's find the remains of our predecessors, take any belongings they might have left behind, and then leave."

"Go quickly and come back quickly, there shouldn't be too much danger."

"..." Zhu Ju looked at her, already knowing in his heart that saying anything at this point would be useless:

"Senior sister, do you know where our senior's remains are?"

"The nest!" Pei Jingque's face lit up with joy, knowing that Zhu Ju had already agreed, and he said:

"If we find the lair of the Rock Armored Crocodile, we should be able to find the remains of our predecessor."

"Well."

Zhu Ju took a deep breath, looked at Gu Rusong and the others behind him, and with a wave of his sleeve, swept them up and rushed into the distance.

soon.

He used magic to hollow out the inside of a giant rock and placed Gu Rusong and the other three inside.

"We will be back in three to five days, or as soon as one day."

Zhu Ju looked at the four people and spoke:
"rest assured."

"It won't be long."

Pei Jingque, who was standing to the side, calculated the time and nodded slowly.
