Chapter 498
The reddish-brown ground looked like it had been watered by fresh blood. There were huge cracks that extended for thousands of meters, as if it was forcefully split open by a sharp weapon.
The towering mountain was cut straight down the middle. The smooth surface was covered with weeds after a long period of time.
This was the ancient battlefield, a sunken piece of land.
Dried bones, broken weapons, and broken walls could be seen everywhere. There were traces of battle everywhere.
This was the place where the foreign tribes fought fiercely during the ancient times. It might have been a prosperous place where experts gathered in the past.
But now, it was desolate, dead, and there was no sign of life.
"There are treasures everywhere in the ancient battlefield. Where are the treasures?" Looking at the desolate land that did not even have a decent ancient tree, Monk could not help but complain.
"There are no treasures in this damned place. We have been cheated!"
They had been walking around here for two days.
For two days, other than a few weeds, they did not even see a single living thing.
This place was dead and desolate. There was not even a bird or a bedbug.
The dried bones that they saw were on the verge of weathering. As for the broken weapons, they had lost all their spiritual power and were even worse than scrap metal.
Monk was very disappointed that they did not see a single figure nor did they see any treasures after two days.
"This is a piece of land that is equivalent to a small world. It is very big. Let's talk about it after we get out of here," Zi Chen said calmly. He was only slightly more patient than Monk. He had not lost control yet.
After two hours, the two of them finally made a discovery.
It was a stone wall with some patterns carved on it. It looked like some kind of inheritance.
Their eyes lit up and they sped up.
There were a few sword techniques carved on the stone wall. They were vivid but only half of them were incomplete.
After a long period of time, the true meaning of the sword techniques had been lost. Only the forms of the sword techniques were left and they were blurry.
The sword techniques that were passed down from the ancient times were naturally powerful sword techniques. Unfortunately, they could not be truly understood.
"What a pity. Looking at the spiritual power, it should have been lost not long ago. If only we had come earlier!" Monk sighed.
Zi Chen's eyes were also filled with pity. However, he silently remembered the few forms and was prepared to leave it for the lightning young man to see if he could restore the ancient sword techniques.
With this discovery in front of them, which could not be considered a discovery, the two of them were clearly more spirited. They were once again filled with hope for the treasure trove.
Boom!
Without any warning, the stone wall suddenly exploded, and a violent energy fluctuation surged out from the stone wall.
The stone wall burst into pieces, and the shattered stones whistled through the air, shooting towards the two like hidden weapons.
The stone fragments contained a powerful force that actually sent the two of them flying.
"Humans, die!"
Then, a shining figure rushed out from the stone wall that had exploded. It sent out a cold spiritual thought and rushed directly toward Zi Chen.
"Bang!"
The speed of the light shadow was almost comparable to extreme speed.
Zi Chen, who had just been sent flying, didn't have time to react before he was hit by the light and shadow.
Before Zi Chen could land on the ground, he was sent flying back several hundred meters.
Zi Chen's Qi and blood churned inside his body, and he almost vomited blood.
This strike was surprisingly powerful. If he hadn't had the purplish-gold soft armor protecting him, he would have been severely injured even with a Perfect Body.
If he had been flying normally, he would have definitely died after receiving this strike.
The light and shadow stopped in midair and transformed into an object. When it saw that Zi Chen was fine, a hint of surprise appeared in its cold eyes.
"What's that?" At that moment, Monk saw the light and shadow and let out a strange cry.
The light and shadow in midair was actually a rat. It was only a meter long and stood in midair. Its body was shining like the sun, making it impossible to look at it directly.
"Damn, it's just a rat, but it almost killed me."
Zi Chen got up from the ground. His body was stained with reddish-brown soil, and his hair was disheveled. He looked somewhat wretched.
"Is this an ancient beast?" Monk's eyes lit up as he slowly approached.
The glowing rat looked at the approaching humans. Its small eyes darted around before they lit up as well.
"Stop right there, lowly human!" The glowing rat suddenly shouted and sent out a cold spiritual thought.
Zi Chen and Monk were taken aback. Only then did they recall that the other party could transmit its voice.
The two of them subconsciously stopped and then looked at the glowing rat with interest.
"Lowly human, are you blind?
Why don't you kneel down after seeing me, Lord Spirit Devouring Rat? "The glowing rat shouted again.
"Lord Spirit Devouring Rat?
Kneel down? "Zi Chen and Monk looked at each other with a playful look in their eyes.
"Humph!
You're from the outside world, right? You're really lowly human. You don't have any common sense. You're really ignorant to the extreme. "
The Spirit Devouring Rat put on a proud posture and transmitted its voice, "You're lucky to see me, Lord Spirit Devouring Rat.
In the following period of time, so long as all of you follow me and serve me well as slaves and servants, then I'll naturally give all of you a great gift when all of you leave and allow all of you to leave satisfied. "
After hearing the words of the Spirit Devouring Rat, Zi Chen and Monk's expressions became strange.
The other party seemed to know a lot. It also knew that they were from the outside world and would leave.
"Lord Spirit Devouring Rat, are you an ancient beast?" Monk suddenly asked, putting on a humble look.
"Lowly human, haven't you heard of Lord Spirit Devouring Rat?
I'm naturally an ancient beast, no, a divine beast! "The Spirit Devouring Rat proudly transmitted its voice.
A smile appeared on Zi Chen's face.
Monk's appearance became even more humble. He asked again, "Lord Spirit Devouring Rat, are you a pure-blooded ancient beast, no, a pure-blooded divine beast?"
"Human, put away your ignorance and ignorance!"
The Spirit Devouring Rat said angrily, "You're blaspheming the great Lord Spirit Devouring Rat. I'm unique, the strongest divine beast."
"So you're saying that you're a treasure from head to toe?"
Monk's humble expression disappeared. At the same time, he straightened his back and his voice became much louder. There was a huge contrast between before and after.
"Despicable humans … You, what are you doing?" Seeing the two approaching with bad intentions, the Spirit Devouring Rat put away its arrogant expression.
"We need some ancient beast flesh and blood for baptism. I hope that Lord Spirit Devouring Rat can be generous and help us." Zi Chen smiled. His expression became ferocious, but his speed did not decrease.
"Damn it!
It's fine if you don't worship the great Lord Spirit Devouring Rat, but you dare to have ideas about me. "The Spirit Devouring Rat was furious." You're courting death! "
As its voice fell, the light around its body became brighter. Then, it charged fiercely towards Monk. Its small eyes were filled with ferocity.
"Amitabha!
I hope that Lord will be generous with your flesh and blood! "Monk chanted Buddhist scriptures. His body flashed with golden light and a golden light shield appeared.
Golden runes flowed and the chanting old monk reappeared.
The strongest defense!
"Bang!"
The Spirit Devouring Rat turned into a light shadow and hit Monk, causing an explosion and a large golden ripple.
Monk stood in the air. The defensive light shield around his body was constantly twisting and trembling. In the end, it blocked the attack.
Monk did not take a step back, but Spirit Devouring Rat was sent flying.
"Swoosh!"
The Spirit Devouring Rat that was sent flying turned into a ray of light and flew in the opposite direction.
Its speed was very fast, not slower than extreme speed at all. At the same time, it threatened, "How dare you disrespect the great Lord Spirit Devouring Rat. The next time we meet, it will be the time of your death."
"Lord Spirit Devouring Rat, there will be no next time."
Zi Chen's voice sounded at the right time. Unknowingly, he had already arrived in front of the Spirit Devouring Rat. The golden spear in his hand danced and struck at the Spirit Devouring Rat.
"Bang!"
The Spirit Devouring Rat was sent flying. Its one-meter-long body smashed into the ground, creating a deep pit.
"Come out!"
However, in the next moment, Zi Chen shouted and stomped on the ground. The brownish-red ground cracked and a powerful force shook the Spirit Devouring Rat out.
However, as soon as it appeared, it was hit by a golden palm print on its head. Immediately, the Spirit Devouring Rat was knocked dizzy and could not distinguish between things.
"Pfft!"
Zi Chen held his spear and arrived in the blink of an eye. The golden spear light surged and directly pierced the Spirit Devouring Rat's body.
The golden light rippled and the Spirit Devouring Rat was sent flying again.
The two of them attacked continuously. Even if it was a Dan Primordial, it would definitely die. However, when they landed on the Spirit Devouring Rat, they did not even make it bleed.
"As expected of an ancient beast. Use your full strength!" Seeing this scene, the two of them did not feel depressed. Instead, their eyes became more fervent.
The harder it was to kill the Spirit Devouring Rat, the more likely it was to prove that it was an ancient beast.
After that, the two of them attacked with all their strength.
Muffled explosions rang out continuously as attacks rained down on the Spirit Devouring Rats like a torrential storm.
"Ah … You deserve to die. How dare you disrespect the great Lord Spirit Devouring Rat!"
"Lowly humans, you offended the Lord Spirit Devouring Rat. You are finished!"
"Ah … It hurts so much. You're blaspheming the gods!"
The screams of the Spirit Devouring Rat sounded continuously. At the same time, it was accompanied by shouts and curses.
"Pfft!"
Finally, after a series of attacks, the light around the Spirit Devouring Rat dimmed. At the same time, it coughed out a mouthful of fresh blood.
This was glowing blood. It was bright, just like the blood of the Sky-Devouring Wolf. Moreover, the blood contained a strong spiritual force.
"It is indeed an ancient beast!"
"Ancient beast, we finally found an ancient beast!"
After seeing the blood that did not dissipate after falling to the ground, Zi Chen and the monk's expressions became even more excited.
Their eyes became even more fervent, and the aura around them became stronger.
"No … Don't kill me!"
Seeing this scene, fear rose in the heart of the Spirit Devouring Rat. These two humans were really going to kill it.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Another round of battle began.
And this time, the attack power of the two was obviously much stronger. The Spirit Devouring Rat coughed out blood again.
The glowing blood continued to stimulate the two of them, and they launched even more powerful attacks.
"No … Don't kill me. My value is higher alive than dead."
"Bang! Bang!" The sound of attacks sounded again.
"I … I am not an ancient beast. I am just an ordinary demon beast!
I beg you, don't kill me! "The Spirit Devouring Rat begged.
"Bang! Bang!"
