Chapter 564
Chapter 564
The energy between heaven and earth continued to surge, and the might of the kings was fully displayed. When Zi Chen and the rest saw the two kings fighting fiercely from afar.
One of them was a single-horned hound, and the other was a lightning snake.
The single-horned hound was as big as a mountain, with brown fur all over its body. Its sharp claws could crack rocks and penetrate gold, and the horn on its head was exceptionally sharp. It had incredible power.
Every attack it made could shatter a mountain and destroy a large ancient forest.
The lightning snake was hundreds of meters long, and its body was as thick as a water tank. Its body was covered in fine silver scales, and when it moved in the air, it was like a silver lightning raging between heaven and earth, releasing streaks of silver lightning.
"Boom!"
The two clashed, and the energy kept surging. Mountains were shattered, and trees were turned into dust. The powerful force created a shockwave that spread in all directions.
"What a terrifying energy fluctuation."
Everyone stopped a few miles away and watched from afar, not daring to rush forward. As kings of the ancient beasts, their strength was terrifying. Among the human cultivators, no one was a match for them, including the burning man.
"I found the ancient medicine. Lightning snake, get out of my way."
With a furious roar, the horn on the Unicorn Hound's forehead suddenly lit up, and an aura that made people's hearts palpitate appeared. Following this, a thick beam of light shot out from the Unicorn Hound, bringing with it a terrifying aura as it shot towards the Lightning Snake.
"Humph, I found it, you despicable single-horned hound."
The lightning snake let out a cold voice, and the silver scales on its body shone, forming a protective shield. At the same time, the snake's tail was like a divine whip, turning into silver lightning, and hit the single-horned hound.
"Boom!"
There was a huge tremor between heaven and earth. The Unicorn Hound was sent flying, and a long bloody wound appeared on its body. However, the thick beam of light that it shot out also left a deep bloody hole on the Lightning Snake's body. Silver blood continued to fall from the sky.
The two kings of the ancient beasts were obviously fighting fiercely. In the battlefield, terrifying energy surged, and it was like a scene of destruction.
"Fighting for an ancient medicine."
When Zi Chen and the others heard this, they were puzzled. It was only an ancient medicine. Even the descendants of pure-blooded ancient beasts would not make such a big fuss over it. However, two king ancient beasts did not care about their status and started a fight.
"The aura of an ancient medicine that's over ten thousand years old." Amidst the surging energy, the Spirit Devouring Rat's nose twitched, and its expression instantly changed.
"A ten-thousand-year-old ancient medicine." The expressions of Zi Chen and the others changed.
"That's right, this is definitely the aura of an ancient medicine that is over ten thousand years old. Moreover, this spiritual energy is extremely dense, comparable to that of an ancient medicine king. No wonder the two kings are fighting."
Not only was the Spirit Devouring Rat's nose sensitive, its eyesight was also extremely shocking. Its little paw pointed forward and said, "Look, the ancient medicine is right there."
Everyone looked toward the source of the sound and saw a dazzling ancient medicine growing in the middle of the endless destructive energy.
The shockwaves from the battle between the two king tiers were shocking, but both of them deliberately suppressed the energy and protected the area below them.
To be able to make two king ancient beasts fight, one could see that the value of this ancient medicine was extraordinary. Even to king ancient beasts, it was extraordinary.
"An ancient medicine comparable to an ancient medicine king must have existed for countless years. This thing's value is even higher than ordinary spiritual items," the Spirit Devouring Rat exclaimed, and its eyes began to shine.
Last time, it had devoured a spiritual item and underwent a transformation. Now that the ancient medicine king was right in front of it, it was equivalent to a transformation in front of it.
Higher than a spiritual item's value. This was a very appropriate comparison, and it instantly made Zi Chen and the Tyrant understand the value of the ancient medicine king.
The Tyrant looked at the Spirit Devouring Rat and egged it on, "Then what are you waiting for? Quickly go and take the ancient medicine king away."
When the Spirit Devouring Rat heard this, its excited little face instantly fell. It said unhappily, "Do you want me to die? That's a battle between two king level ancient beasts. If I burrow into the ground, even if I don't die from the shockwaves, I'll be obliterated by them the moment I pluck the Ancient Medicine King."
A trace of disdain appeared in the Tyrant's eyes. He curled his lips and said, "What unique Spirit Devouring Rat? You can't even get an ancient medicine king. What a waste."
The Spirit Devouring Rat was furious, but it knew that it had some ability. It was unmoved by the Tyrant's provocation. Instead, it mocked, "Aren't you very strong? You can even destroy the laws. Then go and get the ancient medicine."
The Tyrant was stunned, and then he flew into a rage. He sent the Spirit Devouring Rat flying with a slap and shouted, "You wastrel, how dare you speak to me like that?"
This was an ancient medicine that was not weaker than a spiritual item, and it was obviously easier to seal. Once they obtained it, it would be equivalent to obtaining two times the number of ancient beasts.
At this moment, it would be a lie to say that they were not tempted. However, who would dare to make a move in front of two king ancient beasts? This was like pulling a tooth from a tiger's mouth. If they were not careful, they might be swallowed by the tiger.
The Tyrant and the Spirit Devouring Rat were still chattering. Zi Chen's gaze was fixed on the ancient medicine in front of him, and his expression kept changing.
Seeing Zi Chen's expression, Wang Xian 'er asked worriedly, "You … You can't really want to go, right? It's very dangerous."
Zi Chen looked at Wang Xian 'er, and then at the rest, and said in a deep voice, "I want to give it a try. You guys take a detour and go deeper into the forest."
"No, these are two king ancient beasts. You will die." Wang Xian 'er rejected Zi Chen's suggestion directly, and her face was filled with worry.
"It's okay, I have my extreme speed."
"You have extreme speed, but you don't have the defensive power to match it. Once you are grazed by the energy, you will be severely injured. At that time, it's too dangerous."
Wang Xian 'er said loudly, "We have already obtained enough this time. There's no need to risk our lives for an ancient medicine. Moreover, we will offend two king ancient beasts because of it."
Wang Xian 'er's words made sense. It was not worth it to do so. At this moment, everyone was also against Zi Chen risking his life.
"Let's go. Since there is an ancient medicine king here, there must be a second one. With the Spirit Devouring Rat, our harvest will definitely not be any weaker than the king ancient beasts," Monk said solemnly.
"That's right. I have the confidence to bring you guys to the other ancient medicine king. You have to know that I am the one and only Spirit Devouring Rat," the Spirit Devouring Rat said wittily.
"There's no need to say anymore. I know what I'm doing. You guys go deeper now, and I will catch up soon." Zi Chen was still insistent.
Everyone was helpless. Even Wang Xian 'er could not persuade him, let alone them.
"Everyone, let's go. I believe in Zi Chen," Zhang Haotian, who had always been cold, suddenly said.
Helpless, the rest could only nod and signal Zi Chen to be careful. Then, they turned and left.
After the Spirit Devouring Rat explained the value of spiritual items and the effects of the ancient medicine king, everyone's mood became very heavy. Obviously, Zi Chen was determined to snatch this ancient medicine king so that everyone could undergo the baptism.
Everyone retreated and took a detour into the depths. Zi Chen took a deep breath and stared straight ahead.
This place only opened once every thousand years, and it was also the only chance in his life to reach this place. Naturally, he could not miss it. Moreover, he also needed this ancient medicine king so that everyone could undergo the baptism.
And the more baptisms, the better.
"Huff."
As he breathed out his last breath, Zi Chen's figure disappeared into the void. In the next moment, he, who was hidden in the void, sped towards the ancient medicine king's location.
Lightning appeared under his feet, displaying his extreme speed. When he reached the area where the king ancient beast's energy was fluctuating, the Heavenly Thunder Wings appeared on his back. As the silver wings flapped, Zi Chen's speed increased again.
He had already appeared from the void and was in the midst of the king ancient beast's destructive energy. He was like a lone boat in a stormy sea that could be torn apart by the strong winds and huge waves at any time.
Relying on his extreme speed, Zi Chen's figure kept changing as he tried to pass through the weak points of the turbulent energy. From there, he smoothly approached the ancient medicine king.
Zi Chen's appearance naturally attracted the attention of the two king ancient beasts. However, they did not pay much attention to him. After all, they were very clear about the strength of the human preliminary cultivators.
"Puff."
Within the energy storm, Zi Chen had already advanced a hundred meters. As the energy became more turbulent, he was carelessly brushed by the energy and immediately coughed up blood.
The moment the faint golden blood appeared, it was turned into nothingness by the raging energy. At the same time, Zi Chen's sleeve was also crushed by the destructive energy.
Passing through the violent energy was like crossing a wooden bridge. Once one lost one's footing, one would fall into a bottomless abyss and be consigned to eternal damnation.
Everything happened very quickly. On the silver wings, the light kept flashing. Zi Chen turned into a ray of silver light and passed through the weak points of the energy.
After coughing up a few mouthfuls of fresh blood, he rushed out of the turbulent energy and arrived at the place where the ancient medicine king was.
The ancient medicine king was one foot tall. It emitted a bright light and a rich spiritual energy. It was gorgeous and eye-catching. As he inhaled a mouthful of spiritual energy into his stomach, Zi Chen instantly felt that the injuries on his body had weakened. Then, his eyes lit up.
Clearly, this stalk of Ancient Medicine King was comparable to a treasure pill even without being refined. Hence, without another word, he flapped his wings and appeared in front of the Ancient Medicine King in a flash. He stretched out his hand to grab the Ancient Medicine King.
"Eh?"
A cry of surprise rang out in the sky. The two king ancient beasts who were fighting fiercely felt that Zi Chen had rushed out of the turbulent energy alive. Therefore, they lowered their heads and looked at each other. Their eyes were filled with surprise.
With a glance, they saw the Heavenly Thunder Wings on Zi Chen's back. Immediately, their expressions changed. "It's him. The human who destroyed the rules."
The battle that day was sensational. There was almost no ancient beast who did not know about Zi Chen and the other three. Moreover, the Heavenly Thunder Wings on Zi Chen's back were so special. Even though they had shrunk to two meters in size, they could still recognize them at a glance.
However, after the shock, they were furious.
This was because they saw Zi Chen standing beside the ancient medicine king. Moreover, he had taken the ancient medicine and soil into the purple gold gourd.
"Damn it. Stop it."
The energy in the sky suddenly became violent. The horn on the horned hound's forehead shot out a thick beam of light. It carried a destructive aura as it rushed towards Zi Chen.
At the same time, the lightning snake's body emitted a bright silver light. In an instant, it shot out hundreds of silver lightning bolts. Its target was Zi Chen.

PS: I really couldn't do it yesterday. If I had described the scene of Dragon Star's death in greater detail, and added in the various moves, I would have been able to make it into a chapter. But that would be too lame. So, even if I didn't update a chapter, I still wanted to make it less lame. That way, I would be able to answer to my readers, even if there weren't many of them.
