"Stop talking, let's go quickly. It is already very late. Later, if we find some scrap metal in the Ancient Remnant, we can probably sell it for hundreds of thousands of silver taels. "
Two cultivators who were not even Superior Grade Martial Masters walked past Xiao Chen. When they saw Xiao Chen's actions, they looked at him with disdain.
Xiao Chen smiled faintly and ignored them. I don't even know if I can make it to Beast King Valley alive. To think you are talking nonsense about the treasures in the Ancient Remnant. Even if you obtain it, will you be able to walk out alive?
Xiao Chen put away the Spirit Cores of the three Spirit Beasts and continued on his way. The Spirit Beast corpses in front of him were even denser. He even discovered a few Rank 4 Spirit Beasts, allowing Xiao Chen to make a small fortune.
There would not be any Spirit Beasts above Rank 5 in the periphery of Savage Forest. Normally, it would be somewhat dangerous. However, today, with so many cultivators charging forward, there were no Spirit Beasts that could obstruct them.
"Boom! Boom! "
The sound of fighting reached Xiao Chen's ears. Xiao Chen extended out his Spiritual Sense and looked in the direction of the sound. A group of cultivators were surrounding a completely golden Spirit Beast.
A Golden Holy Beast! Xiao Chen said in astonishment. The Spirit Beast that was surrounded was a completely golden, glass-like lion. There was even a golden horn on its head.
"I did not expect there to be such a Holy Beast," Xiao Chen said in astonishment as his heart was in great waves. "However, its blood does not seem to be pure."
A Golden Holy Beast was a type of Spirit Beast that had existed since the Ancient Era. This kind of Spirit Beast was completely golden, even its blood was golden. The Spirit Core that it condensed was also of the highest quality among those of the same rank.
There had always been rumors that there were ancient Savage Beasts in Savage Forest. However, they did not see any Savage Beasts. Instead, they saw a Golden Holy Beast.
It must have been due to a large number of cultivators entering the forest. Otherwise, with the spirituality of this kind of Spirit Beast, it would have fled before anyone could get close.
However, the blood of this Golden Holy Beast was much thinner. Its value was not that shocking. Xiao Chen was only interested in the golden horn on its head.
He had never been able to find a suitable material to cast the Life Bestowal Spell. This golden horn was the most important part of the Golden Holy Beast, and the spirituality it contained was self-evident.
Leaping onto a branch, Xiao Chen leaped all the way forward. Once he got closer to the battlefield, he began to observe carefully.
There were two groups of people surrounding the Golden Lion. At this moment, the Golden Lion was about to reach its end. The atmosphere instantly became strange.
The leaders of these two groups were Martial Saints. Each of them led a dozen cultivators dressed in different clothes. Clearly, they were a group that had been put together at the last minute.
Puchi!
The Golden Lion spat out a golden flame. The flame emitted a dazzling golden radiance as it blasted towards the leader of the group on the right.
The flames were extremely powerful, but the Golden Lion was already injured, so the flames it spat out were not strong enough. The grey-robed Martial Saint expert gently clapped his hands, forming a strange Qi field.
The golden flames suddenly turned back and rushed towards another group of people. Caught off guard, the flames instantly burned many martial artists.
"Zhang He, what are you trying to do?!" the leader of the Martial Saints shouted angrily.
The Martial Saint named Zhang He smiled coldly, "What I am trying to do, isn't that what you want to do? Zhou Hongyu, don't think I don't know what you are trying to do. If you did not make a mistake earlier, would this beast be able to injure me? "
As the two of them spoke, they did not stop their attacks. The Golden Lion, which was already severely injured, was on its last breath. Occasionally, the two of them would shoot their flames at the other group.
The two Martial Saints were fine, but the group of Martial Grand Masters behind them were very unlucky. Occasionally, someone would get burned by the flames.
"Seniors, although this Golden Holy Beast is precious, its bloodline is already diluted beyond recognition. There is no need to cause unnecessary casualties here."
"Indeed, we should hurry to Beast King Valley. Just pick up some scrap metal there and it would be worth more than this."
The cultivators behind both sides advised. If they continued to be toyed with by these two, they might really die.
"Bang!"
After the final attack, the Golden Lion finally fell to the ground. Both sides looked at each other cautiously and did not move forward to touch the corpse of the Spirit Beast.
Zhang He looked at the other party and said, "Zhou Hongyu, our strengths are similar. In a short period of time, neither of us will be able to defeat the other. It is impossible for us to monopolize this Golden Lion.
"We have already delayed our fight for a long time. If we still want to go to Beast King Valley, we have to settle things here quickly."
Zhou Hongyu thought for a while and said, "Alright, I only want this Golden Lion horn. I don't want anything else."
Zhang He smiled, "You should have said that earlier. I only want that Spirit Core. As for the remaining Golden Holy Beast's flesh and blood, how about we split it with the brothers behind us?"
Zhou Hongyu nodded and said, "The two of us will step back now. Each of us will send one person to collect the Spirit Core and the Golden Lion horn. How about that?"
"That is exactly what I was thinking!"
The two of them agreed on the distribution of the Golden Lion and started to step back. Two cultivators walked out of the crowd with short sabers in their hands.
"Hu Chi!"
A ring of purple flames suddenly rose from the ground, forming a two-meter tall wall of fire. The sudden appearance of the wall of fire startled the two cultivators with short sabers.
In the instant the wall of fire rose, a figure descended at the same time. With a 'shua' sound, the Golden Lion on the ground disappeared. There was a clap of thunder, and the figure brought the Golden Lion far away.
"What's going on? What happened?"
The thick flames blocked everyone's vision. They were unable to see what was happening inside. The two Martial Saints exchanged glances before they quickly chased after Xiao Chen.
By the time the two of them caught up, they only saw a figure flying into the distance. Zhang He said in disbelief, "Could it be a Martial King expert?"
Zhou Hongyu's complexion turned ashen. He shook his head and said, "Definitely not. I can feel that person's aura. He is not even a Martial Grand Master. He definitely has a flying Martial Technique."
"Damn it! In the end, we worked ourselves to death. To think that we worked so hard for someone else." The two of them felt incomparable regret in their hearts. If it were not for the two of them being overly suspicious, this Golden Holy Beast would not have been taken advantage of.
After Xiao Chen used the Gravity Spell and flew far away, he stopped. He spread out his Spiritual Sense in all directions. After he made sure there was no one around, he revealed an expression of joy.
"I did not expect that I would be able to take advantage of such a big loophole. Those two Martial Saints can only blame themselves." Xiao Chen revealed a joyful smile as he took out the Golden Lion from the Universe Ring.
After a careful observation, he discovered that the fur on the belly of the Golden Lion had already turned completely white. Looking at its size, it should be a juvenile like Bai. Otherwise, it would not have been killed so easily.
According to legend, Spirit Beasts with the Golden Bloodline could become at least a Rank 8 Spirit Beast. That was equivalent to a human Martial Sage.
Xiao Chen did not hesitate and immediately cut off the Golden Lion's horn. Then, he started to drain its blood. According to legend, this golden blood could be consumed directly, allowing one's cultivation to increase greatly.
After using eight porcelain bottles, the golden blood was drained. Xiao Chen started to separate the tendons and bones. Then, he took out a completely golden Spirit Core.
The golden Spirit Core gave off a faint glow. Streams of golden Qi that could be seen with the naked eye flew out from it. The dense Spiritual Energy actually leaked out like an unending stream of spring water.
What a horrifying energy! Just the amount that leaked out is already so huge. Xiao Chen was astonished. If he were to absorb all of it, how huge would it be?
As soon as he thought of this, Xiao Chen took out the golden Spirit Core and sat down cross-legged. Then, he entered a state of cultivation.
"Hu Chi!"
The golden Spiritual Energy was like a mist. It was directly sucked into Xiao Chen's mouth and nose. A pure and vast amount of Spiritual Energy gushed in like a gushing river.
Xiao Chen circulated the Purple Thunder Divine Incantation and slowly digested this pure Spiritual Energy. The mist-like golden Spiritual Energy leaked out for two hours before it stopped.
"Boom!"
There was a crisp sound and the golden Spirit Core cracked and turned into countless specks of dust. When the wind blew, it completely disappeared from Xiao Chen's hand.
Xiao Chen opened his eyes and shot out a piercing purple light. The purple light in his eyes flickered for a long time before it slowly disappeared.
Every time Xiao Chen advanced, this purple light would appear. Xiao Chen could not understand the reason for it. The Compendium of Cultivation also did not explain it.
Recollecting his thoughts, Xiao Chen did not continue thinking about this problem. He got up and carefully felt the energy contained in his Martial Spirit. His cultivation realm had risen to Superior Grade Martial Master.
Unexpectedly, that Golden Holy Beast's Spirit Core was a treasure. No wonder even though it was a very diluted bloodline, the two Martial Saints did not even bother going to Beast King Valley and directly made a move on it.
Xiao Chen calmed himself and stretched his arms and legs. Then, he quickly made his way into the depths of Savage Forest. He executed the Blue Dragon Cloud Soaring Art to its limits. Dragon images appeared behind him; it was as though he was flying on flat ground.
After half an hour, Xiao Chen arrived in front of a large river. As long as he crossed this river, he would officially enter the inner region of Savage Forest.
However, at this moment, there was a large group of people gathered at the riverbank, cursing loudly. Xiao Chen felt it was strange. He parted the crowd and arrived at the riverbank. He finally understood what this group of people were cursing about.
The only bridge that connected the inner and outer regions of Savage Forest had actually been destroyed by someone. The river was tens of meters wide, and there were water monsters bobbing up and down in the water. This blocked off the group of people at the riverbank.
"Ah …"
A miserable cry came from the river. Two cultivators who were preparing to swim over were swallowed by a strange black fish.
After a while, large amounts of red blood started to seep out of the river. Xiao Chen felt it was a pity. He had seen it clearly. Those two cultivators were the ones who mocked him earlier.
If they picked up some scrap metal in Beast King Valley, they would be able to sell it for hundreds of thousands. Unfortunately, they did not even manage to enter the inner region of Savage Forest before dying in the river.
"Tong!"
A Martial Grand Master suddenly leaped out of the river. His body soared high into the air before landing on the water. He pushed off lightly and leaped up again. The opposite riverbank was already less than 30 meters away from him.
