Chapter 500
"Ah … It hurts! Who's sneak attacking me!
Who is it? Who is sneak attacking your Lord Spirit Devouring Rat?! "
After letting out a scream, the Spirit Devouring Rat's exasperated voice came from the cave.
At this moment, footsteps sounded. Zi Chen had already walked to the entrance of the cave. Looking down at the Spirit Devouring Rat on the ground, the long spear in his hand flashed coldly as he said coldly, "What are you doing?"
You … "Seeing Zi Chen, the Spirit Devouring Rat was obviously shocked.
That rat was a real ancient beast. It had extraordinary combat strength. Every time it was beaten, it would flee in embarrassment. The Spirit Devouring Rat knew that the two of them were very strong and could kill it.
But it did not expect that the two of them would kill it so quickly. It was almost a face-to-face battle. Before it could finish eating a piece of crystal, the battle was over.
After its small eyes met with Zi Chen's cold gaze, its legs could not help but tremble. Its heart was cold, and the half shiny thing in its small claws also fell in an instant.
"I … I'm here to pick up the treasure for you." The Spirit Devouring Rat said in a trembling voice.
"You prodigal thing, you're eating secretly. Let me see what you're eating." The monk walked over from afar with the dead black rat and saw the half crystal that fell on the ground.
The black rat was thrown down, and the ground shook, making a bang sound. The monk strode to the entrance of the cave.
Then, he saw that the cave was covered with a layer of shining crystal. It was colorful and dazzling, emitting rich spiritual energy.
"This is?!"
The monk's eyes instantly widened, and greed appeared on his face. Among the crystal on the ground, although he could not name many of them, from the gorgeous light and the rich spiritual energy perception, he could still see that these crystal were not ordinary.
The Spirit Devouring Rat moved to the side. The monk laughed loudly and directly pounced on it, excitedly rolling on the crystal.
"I'm rich, I'm rich!"
The monk shouted loudly, very excited. He took out a piece of bright crystal and sniffed it. Then, he bit it. It was really hard.
"You prodigal thing, go to the side. You dare to eat this kind of good thing."
Ignoring the strange expression on the Spirit Devouring Rat's face, the monk pushed it aside. His heart was filled with joy as he hugged the crystal and kissed it fiercely.
Seeing so many crystal stones, Zi Chen was obviously stunned. With his unprofessional eyesight, he roughly estimated that the value of these crystal stones was at least a million upper-grade Primordial Stones, or even higher.
"I'm rich!"
Zi Chen was filled with anticipation for the Ancient Battlefield as he was able to reap such a huge reward from killing just one ancient beast.
"Damn monk, get up quickly!"
Zi Chen kicked the monk's buttocks, and the latter fell down like a dog eating mud. When he got up, there was a shiny crystal in his mouth.
"Hurry up and dissect the ancient beast. Otherwise, all of its blood essence will dissipate." Ignoring the murderous look on the monk's face, Zi Chen said once more.
"That's right, ancient beasts!" The monk suddenly sobered up. Then, he waved his hand and a golden light scattered. All the crystals were taken away.
Then, his figure flashed and rushed out of the cave like a bolt of lightning. When he reappeared, he was already holding a saber in his hand.
Seeing all the crystals disappear, the Spirit Devouring Rat's eyes were filled with disappointment. It swore to itself that if there was a next time, it would secretly take away a few crystals.
The monk held the saber and began to dissect the ancient beast.
Clang!
When the saber touched the black fur, it exploded with a clang and sparks flew everywhere. The saber was bounced back.
"What a strong defense!" The monk was shocked that the black rat's fur was still so tough after its death.
Then, the saber flashed with a brilliant light and emitted a cold aura. Only then did the monk slowly cut open the black rat's body. It could be seen that it was very strenuous for the monk to cut it open.
This rat's skin was very tough. Even a pill weapon would have a hard time cutting it open. If he brought it to the Bedlam Lands and refined it with other materials, he would definitely be able to refine a defensive pill weapon.
And this was Primordial Stones, which was wealth.
Even if it was exchanged for mid-grade Primordial Liquid, it could be exchanged for a few drops.
A moment later, a complete rat's skin was placed on the ground.
After peeling the skin, it was time to cut open the chest, stomach, bones and blood.
The flesh of the black rat was very valuable. Once it was sold outside, it would definitely be sold for a high price.
If a cultivator ate the flesh of an ancient beast from a young age, his body would naturally be baptized and his talent would be stronger.
The bones of the ancient beast could be used to refine weapons or medicine. Its value was extraordinary.
As for the blood essence, it was something that Zi Chen had to use for his baptism.
The monk with the saber was very skilled. However, he was still very careful, afraid that he would damage any part of the body.
The entire body of an ancient beast was a treasure. Even a drop of blood could not be wasted.
The black rat was long dead. However, its flesh still emitted a faint light.
The monk sighed and looked at the Spirit Devouring Rat again. His naked eyes made the Spirit Devouring Rat's hair stand.
All the blood in the black rat's body was extracted by the monk, including the blood essence in its heart. Not a single drop was wasted.
The black rat was a true ancient beast. Its blood essence emitted a dazzling light that contained an inexplicable energy. The two of them were extremely excited as they carefully kept it in a jade bottle.
In the end, all the valuable items on the Spirit Devouring Rat were collected by the monk. It could be said that he had plundered everything clean.
Even Zi Chen was dumbfounded by such a skilled technique.
"This is an ancient beast. Its entire body is a treasure. We can't waste it." The monk said after collecting the large intestines and small intestines.
Indeed, the body of an ancient beast was a treasure.
As Zi Chen nodded his head, he was thinking about when he could fry a tripe.
"Let's go to the next place." After collecting everything, the monk stared at the Spirit Devouring Rat.
"Huh?" The Spirit Devouring Rat looked at the monk with its small eyes.
"What's with the 'huh'? Do you know how much we have to pay to come here?
Tens of billions of vitality stones!
This is not even enough to pay the interest. Hurry up and lead the way. "The monk said coldly.
Helpless, the Spirit Devouring Rat could only continue to lead the way.
With the Spirit Devouring Rat leading the way, Zi Chen and the monk did not have to take many detours. They went straight to the nest of the ancient beast.
Two days later, under the lead of the Spirit Devouring Rat, they found another ancient beast. It was a gray rat that was close to three meters in size. It was very strong. Usually, the Spirit Devouring Rat would not dare to approach this place.
As soon as they arrived, they were discovered and a fierce battle ensued.
Although they were both ancient beasts, this gray rat was much stronger. Its defense and speed were also comparable to the Spirit Devouring Rat.
Zi Chen and the monk joined forces and fought for a long time before finally killing it.
The harvest this time was undoubtedly rich. They had obtained a lot of essence blood. However, it was still far from the baptism.
This time, the Spirit Devouring Rat did not run away. It had been watching the battle with its small eyes wide open. Obviously, it found it unbelievable that the two of them could kill this gray rat.
In the gray rat's cave, the two of them found a lot of crystals that lit up the entire cave.
If they could sell these things after killing two ancient beasts, they would definitely be able to make up for their losses at the auction.
In other words, in just five days, the two of them had already gained close to ten million.
And this … was just the beginning.
"We actually encountered three rats here. Are there only rats here?" The monk asked in return. However, he was delighted. He could not wait to meet more of these rats.
"There's not a single blade of grass here. Only some rats can survive here," the Spirit Devouring Rat explained. He did not expect that there were only rats here.
"Lead the way, lead the way!
Let's go find more rats, "the monk said excitedly.
"I only know these two ancient beasts. We'll have to search for the rest slowly," the Spirit Devouring Rat said.
Just as the monk's expression gradually turned cold, the Spirit Devouring Rat's eyes lit up. "I know a real pure-blooded ancient beast. It's not far from here."
"A real pure-blooded ancient beast?"
"In the ancient battlefield, all beasts that can survive are called ancient beasts.
However, they are not pure. They are only affected by this world and slowly transformed into ancient beasts.
However, there are real pure-blooded ancient beasts here. They are born with pure blood. "
At the end, the Spirit Devouring Rat said proudly, "Just like me, the one and only Spirit Devouring Rat in the world. When they are born, they cause the world to change."
"Alright, stop bragging. Lead the way!" The monk slapped the Spirit Devouring Rat's head hard, waking it up.
"Let me say this first. This ancient beast is very strong. It's even stronger than this gray rat. You might not be able to deal with it!" the Spirit Devouring Rat said solemnly.
"What do you think?" The monk looked at Zi Chen.
Zi Chen pondered for a moment before saying, "Let's go take a look first. If we can't kill it, we'll retreat."
"Alright, let's go!"
The two of them were skilled and bold. They both had extreme speed, so they were not afraid.
This time, the journey was relatively long. Along the way, Zi Chen would take out some rat meat to roast.
The rat meat was glowing and contained the essence of ancient beasts. It was very beneficial to the body. Every time Zi Chen ate it, he would refine it.
The monk was extremely envious. He drooled but did not eat a single bite. This made Zi Chen feel extremely strange.
This bandit monk only looked like a real monk at this moment. He did not touch wine or meat.
As for the Spirit Devouring Rat, it did not eat it either. In its words, there were too many impurities in the faintly glowing roast meat.
Five days later, the two of them arrived at their destination.
The air was filled with an oppressive aura. It was like a ferocious aura that made one's heart palpitate and feel extremely uncomfortable.
Even without the Spirit Devouring Rat's reminder, the two of them knew that there were ancient beasts here.
"Let me say this first. I don't have any combat strength. If you can't defeat it, I'll escape in advance." The Spirit Devouring Rat said without any sense of loyalty.
"Shut up!"
Zi Chen shouted coldly. His expression was much more solemn. The oppressive aura here made him feel uneasy and dangerous.
This feeling was similar to when he saw the Heaven Devouring Wolf back then.
The monk's expression turned solemn as well. Furthermore, a benevolent smile appeared on his lips.
This was a serious expression on the monk's face. It meant that the other party felt that something was wrong and was prepared to go all out.
The two of them with solemn expressions did not notice the Spirit Devouring Rat behind them. Their eyes were cold.
"Roar!"
