Chapter 422: Chapter 422 Super Soul beast
~~
"Youngling ye chen, with your current strength, I'm afraid you can't even break the restrictive spell around this lair. The spirit beasts inside are not something you can deal with either. Master Lion would advise you to discuss this with The Little Mermaid. The sea demon clan is an ancient clan. Perhaps she'll have a way."
"Master Lion, do I really have no chance of winning?" Ye chen looked into the distance. There was a faint, mysterious energy in the nest that made him feel an inexplicable pressure. From the looks of it, the soul beast in the nest should not have fully matured yet. He had to kill it as soon as possible, or the consequences would be unimaginable! If there was any hope of winning, ye chen decided to give it a try.
"There's no chance at all. Let's hurry up and leave. That kind of ancient existence, even if it's just born, it's at least boundless stage and above. This soul beast should be at least transcendent stage, and their bloodline often has many powerful inherited secret techniques." Master Lion saw through ye Chen's thoughts and urged, " this spirit beast has probably just hatched. It'll be staying in this nest for three to five years! In addition, if it wants to evolve to the spirit sea realm, it will be weak for a period of time, which will be the best time to kill it!"
'So that's how it is.' Ye chen thought to himself.'I should retreat for now and discuss with tantai Ling first or come back to kill her after my strength has increased.'
Looking into the distance, the daemon King rank Mantis soul beasts were entering and leaving the floating nest in an orderly manner like worker bees.
Little squido's figure swept past the numerous Mantis soul beasts.
It was actually little squido. Little squido had actually broken through the restrictions and entered the floating nest! Ye chen was shocked. Even his astral body was unable to break through the restrictions around the floating nest. How did little squido get in?
Ye chen looked in the direction of the suspended nest and saw that little squido's body had shrunk to the size of a palm. It was swimming around the egg-like suspended nest. Its body was shrouded in Water-type celestial Chi, making it look like a dream. Those spirit beasts had low intelligence and were in a hurry to enter and exit, so they did not notice it at all!
Little squido blinked its eyes and stretched out a tentacle playfully to touch the floating nest. With a Swoosh, it wormed into a narrow entrance.
Little squido was very carefree as if it was playing around. On the other hand, ye chen was extremely nervous. His astral body could not break through the restriction so he could not establish any contact with little squido. He wondered how little squido was doing in the floating nest.
Would the terrifying soul beast in the floating nest eat little squido?
After some thought, little squido was a dusk octopus. In terms of inheritance, it should not be much inferior to that soul beast. It should be known that some dusk octopus could survive for millions of years!
When he thought of this, ye chen felt a little more at ease.
Elder Tuntian was skilled in divination. He probably had other intentions for him to bring little squido along on this trip. He had probably calculated that little squido would be of use to him.
These old undying existences who had lived for thousands of years always had some incomprehensible abilities.
Ye chen hid behind a mountain and concealed his tracks to avoid being detected by the spirit beasts in the nest and causing trouble for little squido.
About half an hour later, little squido appeared once again. It flew rapidly toward ye Chen's position and stopped in front of him, extending one of its tentacles.
Little squido was actually asking him for a heaven and earth bag!
After ye chen received the message from little squido, he took out a heaven-earth bag with a larger space and handed it to little squido. With a whoosh, little squido flew back to the floating nest.
After little squido had left the restriction, ye Chen's astral body could sense some of the images little squido had seen.
Ye chen could not help but draw in a cold breath when he saw the images. In the suspended nest lived a blood-red, incomparably huge spirit beast. It was somewhat similar to the Mantis-like spirit beasts outside but its outer shell was glowing with a red luster and was filled with a metallic texture. Its body exuded a terrifying murderous aura. Just from that aura, one could feel that this Red Mantis spirit beast's strength was much stronger than tantai Ling.
Master Lion was right. Ye chen was no match for such a powerful spirit beast.
Other than the Red Mantis spirit beast, little squido had also found a mountain of Tianyuan ancient coins in the lair. There seemed to be something else in the Tianyuan ancient coins. Ye chen was extremely shocked when he saw what they looked like.
It was the cosmic stone!
There were at least several hundred cosmic stones in the pile of Tianyuan ancient coins. There were also many Twilight Gold ancient coins, nephrite pearls, and other items mixed in with the cosmic stones. In addition, there were also some purple glows among them. They were actually a few components of the purple Demon Armor.
Where did this Red Mantis spirit beast get these things from? And there were so many of them!
Ye Chen's heart was filled with doubt and confusion. Could these things have been collected by the daemon King rank Mantis spirit beasts from other places?
But where could he collect these things?
Ye Chen's heart was filled with doubts and he asked Master Lion. Master Lion expressed his puzzlement as well. It seemed like this riddle would not be solved in a short time.
If little squido took all those things with the heaven-earth bag, it would be a great profit. These things could enhance one's strength on a large scale. However, ye chen was worried that such a big move would attract the Red Mantis spirit beast's attention. If it was discovered, it would be troublesome.
Ye chen paid close attention to the nest's movements. He did not know what happened to little squido after it snuck into the floating nest. He could only wait patiently.
In the suspended nest, a palm-sized little octopus, covered in Water-type celestial Chi, slipped in from the narrow gaps between the trees. Its jet-black eyes darted around, sizing up the huge Red Soul beast in the suspended nest.
That soul beast did not sense little squido's existence at all. To it, little squido was truly too insignificant, just like an ant to a human. After eating a few mystique adept rank soul beasts, it looked around lazily. When it did not discover anything, it laid down on an empty piece of land in the nest. Its huge abdomen slowly rose and fell as it breathed extremely long and slow.
Even the weakest part of the soul beast's body, its abdomen, was covered in tiny red-gold scales, which glowed with a brilliant light.
Ordinary weapons couldn't even leave a scratch on it.
Seeing that the soul beast had fallen asleep, little squido sneaked quietly to the pile of Tianyuan ancient coins at the bottom of the nest.
Little squido's clear eyes were like crystals, reflecting the mountain-like piles of Tianyuan ancient coins, Twilight Gold ancient coins, cosmic stones, purple Demon Armor components, and other items.
All kinds of treasures were piled up like mountains, and any part of it was an astonishing wealth!
One of little squido's tentacles was holding the heaven-earth bag while the other tentacles began to frantically sweep up the items.
Cosmic stones!
Cosmic stones!
Cosmic stones!
Little squido had been fed a few cosmic stones before and had already memorized the aura on them. It was especially excited to see cosmic stones and frantically collected them. Other than cosmic stones, little squido collected the most components of the purple Demon Armor.
Although little squido's intelligence could not be compared to that of humans, it roughly knew which treasure was of the highest grade.
All sorts of treasures were being kept into little squido's heaven-earth bag. It was overjoyed, its eyes narrowing into a line in excitement.
The heaven-earth pouch that ye chen had given it was rather large. It was still not full even after a long time. Little squido had collected a small portion of the mountain-like pile of treasures.
All of a sudden, that spirit beast seemed to have sensed something. It shifted its body and lowered its head. Its lantern-sized red and purple eyes looked at the pile of treasures. When it saw little squido, it was instantly enraged. A Savage glint appeared in its red and purple eyes.
Little squido was chuckling in excitement when it suddenly felt a killing intent lock onto it. It looked up and saw the soul beast's lantern-like eyes staring at it. Its body was not even as big as the soul beast's eyes!
Seeing that the soul beast was staring at it, little squido scratched its head awkwardly with one tentacle. Its eyes narrowed slightly before it curiously extended another tentacle and stabbed at the approaching eyeball. With a plop, it stabbed into the soul beast's eyeball.
"Roar!"
The soul beast's furious roar resounded through the heavens and earth, shaking the earth and mountains. A powerful energy spread out from the floating nest, and Hong Hong Hong, several surrounding mountains were instantly flattened.
Ye Chen's heart clenched when he felt the terrifying force coming at him. Little squido had been discovered!
With a single thought, ye Chen's entire body was covered in the purple Demon Armor. With a loud boom, the force slammed into the purple Demon Armor, causing it to ripple.
"Little brat ye chen, run!" Master Lion growled.
"Little squido is still inside!" Ye chen said worriedly. Although little squido was only an octopus, it was quite intelligent. Ye chen could not leave it alone!
"Don't worry, that dusk octopus will be fine! If you don't escape now, you won't have the chance!"
Hearing Master lion's words, ye chen was silent for a moment. Then, he used Thunder Dash and turned into a stream of light, flying into the distance.
After running for several hundred li, he heard a whoosh. Little squido was running ahead at a speed even faster than his. Its eight tentacles were dragging a heaven-earth bag with a death grip. From the expression on its face, it seemed to be extremely happy.
Ye chen could not help but smile bitterly. It seemed like he had worried for nothing. Little squido was completely fearless.
Ye chen looked back and saw a Red Mantis-like spirit beast floating in the sky. Its huge body was like a small mountain, and the fine golden scales on its body reflected a cold luster. It kept roaring angrily and swung its sharp claws in the air. Dozens of mountains around it were instantly shattered.
Little squido had infuriated it. Although it was a transcendent stage being with an incomparably tough body, its field of vision was not that far. It could not see little squido who was rapidly fleeing, so it could only vent its anger madly.
Seeing the red Spirit beast's fearsome might, ye Chen's worry grew. Perhaps even tantai Ling was no match for that spirit beast. What was even more terrifying was that this spirit beast's growth rate was extremely shocking!
It would not be an easy task to kill this guy.
This guy was simply a moving fortress!
