Before Li Xuan could say a word, Xu Miantu said, "It's still early. This bit of bone beads isn't enough to guarantee first place. We naturally have to continue forward."
Jiang Hao looked at the map and said, "From the map, this is still a safe zone. There shouldn't be too much danger if we continue forward for another ten kilometers or so."
Li Xuan opened the map on his phone and nodded after looking at it. "According to the information, there aren't any Legendary creatures in the vicinity. It's fine if we continue forward. We have to obtain enough bone beads. We can't afford to lose Guide City's ranking as first in the combat test."
Zhou Wen knew that he had to dissuade Li Xuan and company from continuing forward. If they encountered the Skeleton General and any one of them died, it would greatly affect his results.
Although Zhou Wen didn't plan on entering high society through school, he wanted to get into a top university.
If one of the four died, the chances of them getting into a top university would be slim. No matter how good their results in other subjects were, they could only get into a top university. This wasn't what Zhou Wen wished for.
"Li Xuan, do you believe in the existence of a sixth sense in this world?" Zhou Wen pondered for a moment before asking Li Xuan.
"What do you mean?" Li Xuan didn't give a direct answer as he looked at Zhou Wen with piqued interest.
"I think my sixth sense is stronger than the average person's. Ever since I was young, I would have a vague feeling if I were to encounter danger. This feeling makes me very uncomfortable. Although I don't know if it's a sign of danger, I would quickly encounter trouble every time I have this uncomfortable feeling. " After a pause, Zhou Wen continued, "And now, I'm feeling extremely uncomfortable."
"If you're afraid, then be afraid. Why talk about a sixth sense? You sure are something," Xu Miantu said disdainfully.
Li Xuan sized up Zhou Wen for a moment before casting his gaze at Jiang Hao.
Jiang Hao thought for a moment and said, "The number of bone beads we have isn't enough to guarantee our team first place. It doesn't seem appropriate to return just like that."
Clearly, Jiang Hao had the intention to continue forward.
Seeing that Li Xuan was somewhat tempted, Zhou Wen hurriedly said, "Li Xuan, please believe me. Although this feeling doesn't appear every time I encounter danger, as long as this feeling appears, I will definitely encounter huge trouble. If I was just afraid of death, I could have retreated back to the entrance and waited for you. There was no need to say all this. "
After a pause, Zhou Wen continued. "Just as Xu Miantu said, Guide City is only a tiny place. There aren't many high school students here, so it's unlikely that many would dare cross the designated region to hunt Skeleton Soldiers. Now that we have obtained so many bone beads, we can return to the designated region to continue hunting Skeleton Soldiers. First place is still in the bag, so there's no need to take any risks. After all, you only have one life. It's not wrong to be careful. "
"That makes sense." Li Xuan seemed to be moved by Zhou Wen's words as he nodded and said, "Then let's do that. Let's head back and hunt Skeleton Soldiers in other directions."
"There's no need at all." Xu Miantu grumbled, but he didn't dare defy Li Xuan's decision. He turned around and followed Li Xuan back.
Jiang Hao also followed and walked to Li Xuan's side.
Zhou Wen naturally had already turned around to head back, but after taking two steps, he suddenly heard Jiang Hao exclaim. "What's that?"
Everyone jumped in fright as they couldn't help but turn their heads to look at him. They saw him looking at an ancient building beside him in horror, as though he had seen something extremely terrifying.
Zhou Wen, Li Xuan, and Xu Miantu subconsciously turned their heads, but at that moment, a cold glint flashed in Jiang Hao's hands as a strange jade dagger appeared.
The jade dagger in Jiang Hao's left hand stabbed into Li Xuan's waist like a venomous snake's tongue. The foot-long jade blade was completely lodged in.
This turn of events was too sudden. Before Xu Miantu could react, the other jade dagger in Jiang Hao's right hand had already slashed at his neck.
Xu Miantu had already retreated very quickly, but his neck had still been sliced open. Although it didn't sever his main artery, it instantly dyed his neck red with blood.
"Jiang Hao … What are you doing …" Xu Miantu wore a look of horror as he held the wound on his neck. As he retreated, he yelled, as though he couldn't believe what had happened.
Jiang Hao ignored Xu Miantu as he clenched the pair of jade daggers tightly, his eyes staring intently at the wound on Li Xuan's waist.
The wound had been left by his dagger, so he knew very well what effects it would have. But now, the muscles and fat around the wound seemed to be pulled back by some force. It was squeezing the wound, causing only a tiny amount of blood to seep out. This was nearly impossible for a wound of that degree.
"I never expected that the Li family's third young master, who is rumored to be ludicrous and promiscuous, would actually master the Invincible Connate Divine Art that requires a virgin's body," Jiang Hao said slowly as he stared at Li Xuan.
Zhou Wen was similarly astonished when he heard the words "Invincible Connate Divine Art."
Primordial Energy Skills and Companion Beasts could be obtained by hunting dimensional creatures. Only Primordial Energy Arts couldn't be obtained through dimensional crystals.
Legend had it that Primordial Energy Arts originated from ancient qigong, battle qi, ninjutsu, and other techniques. However, Primordial Energy Crystals didn't exist in the past, so those techniques lacked the support of Primordial Energy and were unable to produce their true might.
Only when dimensional creatures appeared and humans absorbed Primordial Energy Crystals did those techniques become useful, gradually forming the Primordial Energy Arts of today.
Primordial Energy Arts were extremely useful to humans. Humans could grow and evolve by absorbing dimensional crystals, but it was difficult for them to cross major levels. As for Primordial Energy Arts, they had the power to break through the limitations of one level.
Just like Zhou Wen, if he wanted to advance from the Mortal stage to the Legendary stage, just absorbing dimensional crystals wasn't enough. He needed to raise Ascetic Meditation to the next realm before his body could evolve to the Legendary stage.
However, Primordial Energy Arts also had their pros and cons. Ascetic Meditation could at most advance Zhou Wen to the Legendary stage, but that was already the limit of the Primordial Energy Art. No matter how he cultivated it in the future, he wouldn't be able to advance to the Epic stage.
Among the known Primordial Energy Arts, there were less than twenty that could advance humans to the Epic stage. The Invincible Connate Divine Art was one of them.
The Invincible Connate Divine Art had a strange requirement, and that was to cultivate it with the body of a virgin. The body of a virgin was also the body of a virgin.
