Chapter 308
Chapter 308
Amidst the yellow sand, Chen Yu patted the dust off his body and stood up.
His bronze statue true body had broken through to the Xiaocheng realm. With the addition of his true body, his defense had reached a terrifying level.
The Demonic Blaze Lizard's tail only brushed against him, and the damage wasn't as high as expected.
But if it was a normal initial stage Xiantian, he would have been dead by now.
"Junior Chen, are you alright?"
Jin Zhuofeng had an anxious expression.
"Just a scratch, nothing serious."
Chen Yu said calmly.
His intuition told him that Jin Zhuofeng was approaching him on purpose and wanted to use the Demonic Blaze Lizard to kill him.
But Chen Yu and Jin Zhuofeng didn't seem to have any grudges. Why would Jin Zhuofeng want to harm him?
Previously in the Poison Fog Forest, Jin Zhuofeng took the initiative to capture the female assassin. This made Chen Yu have a good impression of this senior.
"Kid, this guy is obviously trying to harm you."
From afar, the Scarlet Flame King transmitted a message.
As this battle was close to the Origin Realm, Chen Yu didn't let the Scarlet Flame King participate because the Fire Scale Beast was only at the peak of the Houtian Realm.
This was under the condition that Chen Yu didn't give the Scarlet Flame King any cultivation resources. If the Scarlet Flame King had a large amount of resources, it wouldn't take long for him to surpass Chen Yu.
The Scarlet Flame King was observing the battle and could see the situation more comprehensively. Plus, he was an old monster that had lived for god knows how long.
Chen Yu nodded.
Since the Scarlet Flame King said so, he was sure that Jin Zhuofeng did it on purpose.
But there was no need to point this out now. After all, he didn't have any evidence to prove it.
As the battle continued, Chen Yu became more cautious.
"That's great. Let's continue and kill the Demonic Blaze Lizard."
Jin Zhuofeng said seriously, leading the team.
From afar …
"Senior Jin, why don't we just kill this kid."
The long-haired youth transmitted a message to Jin Zhuofeng.
"No, this kid's defense is strong and he isn't weak either. He might have a trump card given by the Vice Principal. If we aren't careful, we might die."
Jin Zhuofeng immediately rejected.
"Keke!"
The long-haired youth sneered disdainfully, thinking that Jin Zhuofeng was too cowardly.
"Don't worry. I promised Luo Haotian that I will do my best."
Jin Zhuofeng transmitted his voice once more.
In the academy, he had a good relationship with Luo Haotian.
The Luo Clan was one of the top clans in the Ten Great Ancient Clans, while the Jin Clan he belonged to was only a second-rate clan. His family had recently encountered some trouble, and if the Luo family was willing to help, they would be able to tide through it.
When he had gone to beg Luo Haotian previously, Luo Haotian had asked him to kill a student from the Blood Evil Institute.
At that time, Jin Zhuofeng did not pay much attention to it, thinking that it was just a small matter. However, after the news of Chen Yu being taken in as the Vice Principal's disciple spread, he realized how troublesome this matter was.
Although Jin Zhuofeng said this, how could he risk his life to do something for Luo Haotian?
If Chen Yu had any trump cards in his hands, or if the fact that he had killed Chen Yu was exposed, he would most likely die.
"I hope Senior Jin can handle this matter well."
The long-haired youth said with a smile.
"Of course. If we don't handle this well, both of us will die."
There was a hint of warning in Jin Zhuofeng's words.
The long-haired young man was Luo Haotian's man, and he had volunteered to help Jin Zhuofeng deal with Chen Yu.
However, to Jin Zhuofeng, he was sent by Luo Haotian to keep an eye on him.
Jin Zhuofeng couldn't care less. If he wasn't 655% confident, he would rather not do it.
"Junior Chen, I'm glad that you're alright."
The slender lady on the other side said.
The Fiendish Fire Lizard had a huge body and strong defense. It was unrealistic for the four of them to kill it together. They could only kill it when its blood was depleted and it was in a weakened state.
Without Chen Yu, it would be even more troublesome for the three of them to deal with it.
Boom! Bang!
The four of them continued to attack the Fiendish Fire Lizard.
The Fiendish Fire Lizard was furious and it attacked crazily.
However, Jin Zhuofeng didn't fight it head-on, and it was easier for him to deal with it.
Chen Yu, the slender lady, and the long-haired young man were further away from the Fiendish Fire Lizard. As long as the Fiendish Fire Lizard didn't attack any of them with its full strength, they would have time to react and retreat.
At a certain moment.
"Blood Attraction Skill!"
Jin Zhuofeng waved his other hand and suddenly struck out with his palm.
A red illusory palm shadow collided and exploded on the right side of the Fiendish Fire Lizard.
In an instant, blood flowed out of the wound on the right side of the Fiendish Fire Lizard.
The Fiendish Fire Lizard had a strong defense and recovery ability. As long as the injury wasn't serious, it could recover quickly. However, Jin Zhuofeng cast the Blood Attraction Skill to restrain the Fiendish Fire Lizard's recovery ability and forcefully drew out more blood.
Roar!
The Fiendish Fire Lizard roared angrily. It wasn't low in spiritual intelligence and knew that it might not be a match for these humans.
Rumble!
The patterns on its scales emitted scarlet flames and turned into a stream of fire that gathered in the mouth of the Fiendish Fire Lizard.
At this moment, a violent flame aura was emitted within a radius of tens of feet.
"Oh no, this beast is going berserk!"
Jin Zhuofeng shouted.
Other than Jin Zhuofeng, who was the strongest, the other three felt a strong sense of danger.
When the Fiendish Fire Lizard went berserk, it was preparing its strongest attack range, which was enough to kill ordinary Inborn experts nearby.
"Huh?"
Chen Yu realized that Jin Zhuofeng was approaching him again.
This time, Jin Zhuofeng was the main force in the hunt for the Fiendish Fire Lizard. Therefore, the Fiendish Fire Lizard hated him the most.
Therefore, the Fiendish Fire Lizard's main target was definitely Jin Zhuofeng.
Boom!
The flames in the Fiendish Fire Lizard's mouth were monstrous and spewed out violently. It turned into a dark red flame tornado that enveloped a large circular area and set off a blazing storm.
"Senior Jin, save me."
Without saying a word, Chen Yu executed his secret movement skill and approached Jin Zhuofeng quickly.
Didn't Jin Zhuofeng want to get close to Chen Yu so that Chen Yu could take more attacks from the Fiendish Fire Lizard?
In that case, Chen Yu might as well take the initiative to approach Jin Zhuofeng.
As the saying goes, the most dangerous place might also be the safest place.
Roar!
After executing his secret movement skill, Chen Yu flew behind Jin Zhuofeng like a black gust of wind.
If Jin Zhuofeng didn't save Chen Yu, Chen Yu could accuse Jin Zhuofeng of murdering his teammate and not helping him in times of danger.
If Jin Zhuofeng took this opportunity to attack Chen Yu, he would not hesitate to use the life-saving trump card given by his master to kill Jin Zhuofeng.
"What?"
Jin Zhuofeng was stunned. He didn't expect Chen Yu to do this.
As a team member, he had the obligation to protect his teammate.
If he abandoned his teammate now, it would be equivalent to confessing his intentions. If Chen Yu didn't die, things would be troublesome.
"Damn it!"
Jin Zhuofeng's thoughts paused for a moment before he realized that there was no time for him to think too much.
Boom!
He slapped out a palm and a surging wave of blood surged out.
At the same time, he waved the blood-colored spear in his hand and stabbed out a large number of blood-colored spear shadows.
However, Jin Zhuofeng's strength was obviously not comparable to the frenzied Fiendish Fire Lizard.
Boom!
A wave of flames bombarded Jin Zhuofeng's body and sent him flying a few feet away.
Chen Yu was still fine. He had been hiding behind Jin Zhuofeng and his bronze statue true body was extremely resistant to flames.
Although he was also sent flying, his injuries were not worth mentioning.
"Hmph."
The long-haired youth glanced at Jin Zhuofeng.
In his opinion, it was a great opportunity to kill Chen Yu just now, but Jin Zhuofeng actually didn't make a move. Wasn't he being too cautious?
"Junior Chen, are you alright?"
After Jin Zhuofeng got up, he looked at Chen Yu.
He knew that Chen Yu should have noticed something.
Next, he would be more careful. If the opportunity wasn't good, he would rather not make a move.
"It's all thanks to Senior Jin."
Chen Yu smiled.
On the other side, the Fiendish Fire Lizard fell into a weakened state after launching its peak attack.
"Attack! This is its weakest moment!"
Jin Zhuofeng immediately shouted.
The four of them rushed out again and launched a fierce attack on the Fiendish Fire Lizard.
Gradually, the injuries on the Fiendish Fire Lizard's body became more and more serious.
Roar!
The Fiendish Fire Lizard's huge tail swept fiercely, setting off a flaming storm, temporarily forcing Jin Zhuofeng's group to retreat.
In the next moment, the Fiendish Fire Lizard flew up and drilled into a huge pit not far away.
This huge pit was the place where the Fiendish Fire Lizard suddenly launched its attack.
The pit was pitch-black, and it seemed to extend to the ground.
"Chase, the Fiendish Fire Lizard is already seriously injured. We can't let it escape just like that."
The slim woman said.
The rest also agreed.
Only by killing the Fiendish Fire Lizard would they get a generous reward. If they let the Fiendish Fire Lizard escape just like that, it was equivalent to their trip being in vain.
"Come, enter the pet bag."
Chen Yu said to the Scarlet Flame King.
"Hmph!"
The Scarlet Flame King coldly snorted, unwilling to enter.
"Jin Zhuofeng is obviously hostile towards me. I don't know what will happen next. You don't want to go with me, are you hoping that Jin Zhuofeng will kill me?"
Chen Yu asked.
It was an equal mutual contract. When both parties encountered danger, the other party had the responsibility to help.
In the end, the Scarlet Flame King entered the storage bag.
Then, the four of them entered the pit and chased after the Fiendish Fire Lizard.
After jumping in and walking a few steps, a wide underground passage appeared in front of them. The temperature inside was extremely high, emitting bursts of demonic intent. The passage twisted and twisted, extending into the distance.
"What a large underground passage. Maybe it is the nest of the Fiendish Fire Lizard."
The slim woman reminded.
"Hehe, maybe there are many treasures inside."
The long-haired young man laughed.
The four of them quickly chased after it.
After a while, they came to a huge underground cave and caught up with the Fiendish Fire Lizard.
"Demon Bone Stone!"
The long-haired young man's eyes flickered.
He saw that in a certain part of the cave wall, there were Demon Bone Stones. According to his perception, most of the Demon Bone Stones were of extremely high quality.
As a demonic cultivator, these Demon Bone Stones would be of great help to his cultivation.
"Blood God Spear!"
Jin Zhuofeng took the lead and launched a powerful combat skill.
Boom ~
A huge blood-colored spear radiance, exuding the smell of blood, blasted out and stabbed at the head of the Fiendish Fire Lizard.
The long-haired young man blasted out a pitch-black blade slash, and the slim woman waved her long whip, waving layers of whip shadows, lashing at the wound of the Fiendish Fire Lizard.
Chen Yu waved the Giant Sword and attacked the Fiendish Fire Lizard.
Boom! Bang!
In the underground cave, the four of them and the Fiendish Fire Lizard began to fight again. The sound of explosions continued, and the whole cave rumbled.
The Fiendish Fire Lizard was getting weaker and weaker, and it could not hold on for long.
"Kill!"
Jin Zhuofeng stabbed out fiercely with his spear, and several huge red spear shadows rushed out.
The Fiendish Fire Lizard tried its best to dodge, and these fierce spear shadows brushed its scales and bombarded the edge of the Demon Bone Stone wall behind it.
Crack!
A small pit was blasted out of the wall, and a few Demon Bone Stones fell, and a powerful demonic intent spread out from inside.
There were many cracks near the pit, and suddenly a fat "Demon Bone Worm" drilled out. Its bean-sized eyes were pitch-black, exuding an eerie light.
As the Demon Bone Worm crawled out, a few other insects and snakes crawled out from within.
"Not good, there are a large number of demonic beasts near the Demon Bone Stone."
The long-haired young man's expression changed slightly.
From his perception, these demonic beasts were almost at the late Connate stage, and there were more than twenty of them.
These demonic beasts that had been infected by the demonic intent were very strong, and with so many of them, and the Fiendish Fire Lizard next to them, even the four of them were not a match.
"Let's retreat for now."
Jin Zhuofeng shouted.
He had just been injured by the Fiendish Fire Lizard's attack, and after a big battle, his strength was not at its peak.
"Senior Jin, let's retreat first …"
The long-haired young man secretly transmitted his voice.
Then, the two quickly left the cave.
The long-haired young man's palm formed a claw, and a small ball of demonic black qi condensed in his hand, emitting a strange fluctuation.
When Chen Yu and the slim woman retreated, the wide passage suddenly exploded and collapsed.
Boom!
Several boulders slammed down, blocking the two's footsteps.
Then, there was a continuous rumbling sound in front of them, and the passage in front of them was buried even more tightly.
"Not good, the passage collapsed."
The slim woman's face was pale.
On the other side.
"You're too risky."
Jin Zhuofeng whispered.
"Hehe, they won't find out. Even if they find out, do they have the life to come out?"
The long-haired young man smiled evilly.
The secret skill he had just used was a trophy from his own mission. This secret skill could silently trigger the nearby demonic aura, causing it to riot or even explode.
In battle, this secret skill did not have much effect.
But in the depths of the ground where demonic intent gathered, once this secret skill was used, the effect would be very amazing.
"Let's go."
The long-haired young man said, and the black ball in his claw jumped.
Boom!
The layer of soil above shook continuously, and with a "boom" sound, it collapsed.
The passage was buried for ten feet before the long-haired young man stopped.
"The mission is completed. If the Vice Dean asks us about the cause of Chen Yu's death, we will say that we chased the Demonic Flame Lizard underground and suddenly collapsed, and only the two of us escaped. Don't worry, even the Vice Dean won't be able to find any clues. "
The long-haired young man smiled, extremely confident in his means.
In addition, the reason why they could get rid of Chen Yu this time was because of him. He believed that Luo Haotian would not mistreat him.
"It's a pity, Junior Yuyuan."
Jin Zhuofeng said calmly.
The slim woman was in love with Jin Zhuofeng, so she took the initiative to approach Jin Zhuofeng.
But Jin Zhuofeng knew that this woman had no love for him. She just liked his strength and potential.
Deep underground.
"Senior Jin, save us!"
The slim woman shouted with all her might.
She hoped that Jin Zhuofeng on the other side could open the passage so that they could be saved.
However, the only thing that could be heard from the front was the sound of the earth collapsing.
"Junior Chen, we're finished this time."
The slim woman's face was filled with despair as she cried.
But when she looked at Chen Yu, her eyes were slightly dazed.
At this moment, Chen Yu, except for a dignified expression, was still very calm, without the slightest despair.
