Ordinary People: Starting with the Chen Clan

Chen Xuanzhou's expression remained unchanged; he had expected this.

He continued to keep the surrounding puppets in a rhythm of attack, and more and more talismans on his body were activated, with fireballs and lightning bolts combined with pillars of light constantly striking the vortex.

The lightning spikes, which had previously been quite effective against Foundation Establishment cultivators, seemed somewhat powerless against the thin, earthy-yellow vortex, failing to create any ripples.

At this moment, Chen Xuanzhou was not focused on the toad demon, but was instead fully activating the Jingzhe Mirror in his hand. This time, Chen Xuanzhou did not use the Eight Spider Spears in conjunction with the previous attack.

It wasn't that he was arrogant, but rather that there was simply no power of heaven and earth to draw upon in this secret realm.

Fortunately, his years of studying array formations had not been in vain. Talismans flew out from his sleeves and gathered around him in a circle, with lightning flashing within them.

Crackling sounds rang out continuously, and bolts of lightning flashed around him, causing the rune array above his head to sway incessantly.

Chen Xuanzhou's face turned slightly pale as he looked at the toad demon that had suddenly appeared behind him.

If he hadn't cultivated the first level of the Great Evolution Technique, further enhancing his divine soul power and improving his perception of danger, he would have almost been caught off guard by this move.

The lightning struck him, only causing a small amount of charring on his yellowish-brown skin; otherwise, there were no other abnormalities.

The vortex that had been besieged finally shattered at this moment, and the demonic toad inside was completely destroyed by the fireballs and lightning.

The toad demon, having missed its attack, showed no impatience and vanished from its spot with a leap.

He has a deep understanding of what makes a top hunter.

Chen Xuanzhou took out an incense burner from his storage bag and stuck the remaining incense sticks into it. At this point, it was no longer as simple as him causing trouble for the other party. Today, only one of them was destined to leave this place.

Instead of immediately lighting the incense, he sent the giant ape puppet that had been guarding him forward. With the help of the flight talisman, although it still couldn't keep up with the opponent's speed, it was enough to cause some trouble for the opponent.

Chen Xuanzhou continued to throw out talismans to replenish the energy he had just used.

Because this time, talismans were used to completely replace the power of heaven and earth, the consumption was great, but the speed was several times faster.

Only Chen Xuanzhou's current spiritual consciousness can support this kind of play; otherwise, giving him more talismans would be useless.

As the thunder drum slowly appeared, the toad demon, which had been fleeing, suddenly narrowed its vertical pupils and looked coldly at Chen Xuanzhou.

With a spit from its mouth, a stream of yellow sand gushed out.

It started as small as a fist, but in an instant it turned into a sky full of yellow sand, covering half of the main hall. Not only did it conceal itself, but the sand grains were also like fine knives.

Some of the first-tier golems that were scraped were dismembered.

Even with talismans for protection, it's completely useless.

Ignoring the heavy losses suffered by the puppet army, Chen Xuanzhou concentrated all his magic power into the Awakening Mirror, forming a ring of lightning to protect it. At the same time, he made a fist with one hand, as if a thousand pounds were pressing down on him.

My arm was trembling slightly when I raised it.

By this time, the yellow sand had completely enveloped it, but this time it was the toad demon's turn to suffer a setback. The seemingly thin lightning net completely blocked the rampage of the sandstorm.

Boom!

The toad demon naturally wouldn't give up so easily. Under the cover of the sandstorm, it had completely broken free from the giant ape puppet's entanglement and was now lurking around Chen Xuanzhou, constantly attacking the lightning shield with its long tongue.

Each strike consumes more than ten lightning talismans, forcing Chen Xuanzhou to constantly replenish them to maintain the basic stability of the talisman array.

At this moment, wisps of smoke were already rising from the incense burner in front of him, and a layer of fine powder and a cinnabar bottle were scattered at his feet.

"Thump!"

Accompanied by the sound of drums, thick white chains of lightning, about the thickness of a thumb, scattered in all directions.

The raging sandstorm, which was originally not afraid of even the lightning spikes, vanished completely before it even touched these lightning chains.

The toad demon hidden among them immediately revealed itself.

Before anyone knew it, it had transformed into a giant toad ten feet in size, with several lightning bolts covering its entire body. Yet, it remained motionless as if unaware, and the vertical pupils in its eyes were slightly out of focus.

"go!"

Without daring to relax for a moment, a massive stone tablet, three zhang in size, appeared above his head in an instant and smashed down on his head.

Before the stone tablet even arrived, a beam of light as thick as a bowl was already beneath it.

With a bang, the giant toad slightly raised its body, revealing its slightly pale abdomen. Looking at its smooth skin, it simply rolled over slightly before taking the full force of the second-tier puppet's attack.

Chen Xuanzhou frowned slightly.

"Quack quack quack!"

A sudden, urgent croaking of a toad immediately cleared his mind of distractions. Before he could change his move, the giant monument above him had already crashed down on his head.

Cracking sounds continued to come as the once smooth, mirror-like ground sank into a huge pit, with only half of the Prison Suppression Stele visible.

"Clang! Clang! Clang!"

A clanging sound rang out, and before anyone knew it, the giant ape puppet on the Prison Suppression Monument was clenching its fists and smashing them violently.

This caused the prison-suppressing monument, which was originally half-exposed, to sink completely into the ground.

Chen Xuanzhou finally breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing the completely still Prison-Suppressing Stele.

He took out a handful of spirit crystals and held them in his hand, quickly restoring his magical power.

At the same time, with his other hand, he wiped away the remaining incense in front of him. In just a short while, the incense had burned down to one-third of its length. This could be described as a thrilling battle of scattering spirit stones.

Once his magical power was restored, Chen Xuanzhou slowly approached the giant pit and carefully lifted up the Prison Suppression Stele, revealing the situation at the bottom of the stele.

There wasn't a trace of blood, let alone the giant toad's corpse; underneath was just a flat patch of ground.

"A demon beast is still a demon beast; after fighting for so long, it still wants to use the same tricks!"

Without making any unnecessary movements, he simply pressed down slightly with one hand, and the stone tablet fell down again.

Suddenly, a dim yellow light emerged from the bottom of the pit. It dared not approach Chen Xuanzhou at all, but instead turned in a different direction and headed towards the window.

The situation suddenly reversed. Chen Xuanzhou quietly watched the direction it fled in, without rushing to give chase.

However, the remaining puppets around began to continuously release beams of light and talismans, sealing off the surrounding space.

Even at this critical moment, the toad demon did not slow down in the slightest. Now, with a body less than a foot long, it dodged most of the attacks with just a slight sway, and the remaining attacks were merely tickles to it.

As it appeared at the window, a thunderous sound rang out. This familiar sound made the toad demon tremble, and its body swelled up almost instinctively.

The long tongue in his mouth lashed out 180 degrees, like a whip, striking behind him.
