Jiang Chen tidied things up. He found 22 destiny stones on the bodies of the raccoons and Qiu Tu's group. He was very pleased. Including his own, 26 destiny stones should be quite a lot, right?
After resting for two days, Jiang Chen's strength increased again. However, he was still a step away from the Ninth Heaven of the Star Emperor Realm. Jiang Chen knew that the foundation was the most important, so he wasn't in a hurry to break through. There shouldn't be any problems when the conditions are right.
The more destiny stones he found, the happier Jiang Chen became. When he gathered enough destiny stones, he would try to see if he could touch the so-called destiny astral soul that the Black King had mentioned.
Jiang Chen moved forward cautiously. After all, after the incident with Qiu Tu, he understood the situation he was in. Some people wanted to step on him and rise to the top. Moreover, the competition for the Destiny Stone had reached a climax.
During this period, Jiang Chen saw two groups of people fighting. For a few destiny stones, there were many casualties. In the battles between more than ten people, only half of them survived. He didn't participate. After all, the experts here weren't weak at all. He wasn't confident that he could kill them all. The three of them were weaker than Qiu Tu. It was better to avoid trouble. Jiang Chen wanted to make a fortune quietly. It was better to find his own way.
After another two days, Jiang Chen found traces of a fight in an uninhabited hill. There was also a lot of blood around. Most importantly, there were actually 13 destiny stones scattered here. No one picked them up. This was strange.
This was strange. There were traces of battle here, but why didn't anyone want these destiny stones? This was too unusual.
"There must be a reason for this abnormality. Looks like I have to go take a look."
Jiang Chen murmured. Curiosity killed the cat! This was an unchanging truth. Moreover, it was very likely that he would find more destiny stones here. Jiang Chen convinced himself and walked deeper into the hill.
Blood was dripping all over the place, and there were even drops of blood dripping down from the bamboo leaves. Jiang Chen knew that the battle that happened here must have happened just now. Underneath the hill, it was a well-hidden place. The dense forest and mountain range combined together, making it impossible for anyone to see the depths of the place.
Jiang Chen could vaguely hear a deafening roar coming from the depths of the hill.
"Such a strong floral fragrance."
Jiang Chen took a deep breath. The refreshing fragrance of the flowers made him feel relaxed and happy. He immediately became excited. Wasn't this fragrance too exciting? Even Jiang Chen couldn't estimate the power contained in this. It seemed that this was definitely a fierce dispute over benefits.
"Just based on the fragrance of the flowers, I want to see what kind of treasure it is."
Jiang Chen said with a smile while murmuring to himself. These natural treasures were very attractive to Jiang Chen. Therefore, he had to find out what they were.
Jiang Chen quickened his pace and entered the depths of the hill. At this time, the surrounding vegetation had decreased rapidly. Even in the depths, it was dark, with only some fluorescent light shining. It was definitely a deserted place.
"Chi, chi, chi …"
A burst of flames appeared. Jiang Chen's eyes narrowed, and his mind moved.
Because he saw a person, a familiar person. In the depths, there was a flower with red, blue, and purple petals. It made Jiang Chen feel like he was bathing in the spring breeze. That was definitely a treasure that made his heart beat faster. This fierce battle must have started because of it.
Luo Ying!
The woman who was determined to leave. Her purpose was probably also here.
The tri-colored stamen was irresistible. Compared to the charm of a virgin and the elegance of the clouds, it was even more carefree.
At this moment, Luo Ying was forced to retreat. In front of her were two scorpions, but they were three meters long. Their slender stingers flickered with a black light as they constantly charged forward, making Luo Ying miserable. The strength of these two scorpions was definitely half a step into the Star Level, and they were not any weaker than Luo Ying. Fighting one against two, it was obvious that she was at a complete disadvantage. Although the two scorpions were also riddled with sword scars, she was also seriously injured and vomited blood.
Clanging sounds rang out incessantly as the scorpions constantly slashed at the two scorpions. The scorpions' defense was extremely astonishing. The most terrifying thing was that they could both attack and defend without any disorder. The stingers were simply their unique peerless divine weapons.
"It seems that she's about to die."
Jiang Chen frowned. Regardless of the reason why Luo Ying left, they had both experienced a life-and-death battle. At this time, Jiang Chen would definitely not leave her in the lurch.
Although the two scorpions were powerful, they were already injured. Jiang Chen could not just watch as Luo Ying's decline worsened. The injuries on her body were endless. The blood he saw just now should have been left by her.
"Get out of my way!"
Luo Ying clenched her teeth and fought desperately, but it was difficult for her to do so alone. Her wrists were covered in blood.
Twenty-second Blade!
Twenty-third Blade!
Twenty-fourth Blade!
Jiang Chen brandished his sword. The sword qi was frightening as it approached the two giant scorpions. The crisscrossing sword shadows gave Luo Ying a lot of opportunities to catch her breath.
Luo Ying's eyes lit up. The appearance of Jiang Chen made her feel relieved. It seemed that the heavens did not want her to die!
Both of their gazes met. Ten thousand years passed in a single glance. There was no need for words. Jiang Chen launched a pincer attack from behind, blocking the giant scorpion's path. His Limitless Sword rose once again, slashing out layer after layer.
"Twenty-seventh Blade!"
"Twenty-eighth Blade!"
The momentum of relying on the sword could destroy the nine heavens. In the deep hill, Jiang Chen had the absolute advantage. The sword momentum from all directions caused the two giant scorpions to complain incessantly. However, the two big fellows were not that easy to deal with. Luo Ying and Jiang Chen joined forces, but they could only temporarily stabilize the situation.
The stingers smashed towards Jiang Chen one after another. They would die if they touched them, and they would be injured if they touched them. Moreover, they were extremely poisonous. This thing was far more terrifying than some poisonous elixirs.
"Be careful of the poison on their stingers."
Luo Ying said in a deep voice, hastily reminding Jiang Chen. If the venom hadn't invaded her body, she wouldn't have ended up in such a miserable state. Otherwise, she could at least fight them for a while. After being poisoned, her strength had been greatly restricted. It was impossible for her to be at her peak state like before.
Jiang Chen nodded and did not retreat. The Heavenly Dragon Sword was invincible, and the two giant scorpions were shocked until they were numb. Coupled with Luo Ying's desperate fight, the two gradually began to take the initiative.
The two giant scorpions were very annoyed by Jiang Chen because their indestructible and pervasive stingers had no advantage in front of the Heavenly Dragon Sword.
"Buzz —"
A low sound was heard, shocking everyone. Luo Ying's pupils contracted, and her expression changed.
"No —"
