The flowers and grass in the valley rustled with the breeze. Xiao Chen, who had a calm expression, moved forward cautiously in the grass with the rustle of the flowers and grass. Once he noticed an inexplicable sound, he would quickly turn his head.
The word 'cautious' should be used because Xiao Chen's entire foot was only touching the soft grass with the tip of his toes. Moreover, his brisk steps were like a beautiful dance, completely unlike his lively and lively appearance in the past.
Four years had passed, and Xiao Chen's life had not changed at all. Nothing had changed in Dark Night City, but the only thing that had changed was the attitude of his family towards him. From the initial disdain, it had turned into a kind of respect due to his strength.
Xiao Chen had also changed a lot. He was the same as the flowers and plants in the valley. He had grown up to four years old. However, his birthday had been held by his family for the past four years. No one cared about the growth of the flowers and plants.
In these four years, he followed Elder Yun and began to cultivate further. He drank all kinds of spiritual medicine soup and received actual combat training every seven days. Every night, he familiarized himself with the eight hand seals that had been deeply engraved in his bones. Now, no matter how slow he was, the practice of these eight hand seals was just a matter of an instant for him. He almost did not need to think. In fact, he did not even need to think. It was just like the first thing he did after getting up every day was to open his eyes. It became completely natural.
During these four years, on the 28th of every month, the flowers and plants in this sealed valley would see Xiao Chen come in once. Then, at the beginning, he was covered in bruises and was dragged out by Elder Yun on his last breath. After more than a year, he could crawl out on his own with a bleeding body. After another year, he could even limp out of the valley with injuries. Now, he would only suffer some minor injuries and run out like an agile rabbit.
If not for Elder Yun's miraculous medicine and his help in times of crisis, Xiao Chen would have died countless times. Perhaps it was the countless near-death experiences that made him lose the fear of death.
The reason for all of this was that in this valley that was sealed by Elder Yun's spiritual array, there lived a third grade spirit beast that was the cream of the crop-the Iron-armored Earth Dragon.
Thick scales that were even harder than ordinary steel protected the entire body like a pangolin. Its body was huge and thick, almost twice as tall as Xiao Chen when standing up. Its strength was terrifying. When Xiao Chen entered the valley a few times before, a head-on collision could directly knock him unconscious. Even if it grazed him, it would undoubtedly cause serious injuries.
Such a great killing weapon had been captured by Elder Yun four years ago. After imprisoning him, he was thrown into this sealed valley. Then, on the 28th of every month, Xiao Chen would be forced to stay in this valley for four hours. Only when the stipulated time was up would the restriction at the entrance of the valley be opened by Elder Yun, allowing him to escape from this hellish torture.
It had been four years since he entered the sealed valley. He had entered the valley forty-eight times in total. Apart from the first eleven times where he was beaten unconscious and Elder Yun had to drag him out, the last thirty-seven times he had stayed in the valley for four hours. In total, he had stayed in the valley for about 170 to 180 hours.
In these 170 to 180 hours, he had been threatened by the Iron-armored Earth Dragon every minute and every second. Countless painful memories filled with blood had long caused Xiao Chen and the Iron-armored Earth Dragon to reach a point where they would not rest until one of them was dead.
Boom!
The ground under Xiao Chen's feet instantly exploded violently, as if a bomb had been buried inside and detonated. In an instant, a large black hole was opened under his feet.
Before the sound of the explosion had died down, a mouth full of sharp teeth suddenly stretched out from the black hole and bit Xiao Chen, who had been standing there.
However, Xiao Chen seemed to have mastered this attack like the back of his hand. It was as if he had rehearsed it thousands of times. As soon as the explosion sounded, he quickly jumped to the side and dodged the attack of the giant mouth at the last moment.
Xiao Chen, who was still in the air, had a calm expression and did not panic at all. He slightly adjusted his body and quickly formed a Motionless Foundation Seal, which suddenly smashed towards the lower jaw of the huge mouth.
The Motionless Foundation Seal that had been used countless times had long since completely broken away from the stupid attack method of the past. Xiao Chen's body had also adapted to the burden of the seal on his body. Now, even in the air, he could use this seal without any obstacles. Whether it was the power of the seal or the speed of the seal, it was much faster than before.
Bang!
Although the huge mouth shook a little after biting the air, it did not dodge the seal that Xiao Chen had prepared for many times. It was hit in an instant, and his body was forcefully pulled up from the ground by this powerful force.
Mixed with a lot of black soil, the body of the Iron-armored Earth Dragon was completely exposed in the air. The black scales even emitted a shiny luster under the fierce sunlight, and it looked as hard as a turtle shell.
After the seal sent the Iron-armored Earth Dragon flying, Xiao Chen's fist landed heavily on the abdomen of the Iron-armored Earth Dragon. Compared to other places, although the abdomen was also covered by thick armor, the force that penetrated through the outer armor could still injure the internal organs of the Iron-armored Earth Dragon.
This was also the only weakness of the Iron-armored Earth Dragon that Xiao Chen could overcome. Even though he had been ravaged for a long time before he could figure it out, it was worth it.
Ow... Ow... Ow!
The soft internal organs were injured by the storm-like fist force, and intense pain came from the body, causing the Iron-armored Earth Dragon to let out a few tragic howls.
Pa!
The whistling sound of air being torn apart could be heard. Even if Xiao Chen didn't use his brain to think, he knew that this must be the long tail of the Iron-armored Earth Dragon, which was like an iron whip.
However, his body was still controlled in the air by the counter-attack of the fist force, so he could not dodge this attack at all. In a moment of desperation, Xiao Chen waved his right arm and stopped at the side, just blocking the big tail of the Iron-armored Earth Dragon. However, the attack was blocked, but the huge force from the tail still sent Xiao Chen flying and landing heavily on the grass.
Fortunately, Xiao Chen's body was curled up when he landed. The moment he touched the ground, he used the force to roll forward. He only felt a surge of blood in his chest and spat out a mouthful of blood.
Xiao Chen moved his neck and wiped the blood droplets on his eyelashes onto his clothes. It affected his vision. He narrowed his eyes and stared at the huge black figure in the distance.
Feeling the incoming danger, Xiao Chen separated his legs and casually but naturally assumed a posture, completely relaxing his body. He stretched out his hands, clenched his left hand into a fist, and closed the fingers of his right palm. His left fist struck heavily on his right palm.
This action was extremely natural and precise, just like stretching out after getting up every day. No one would think that being able to spread his hands wide behind his back and stretch out an arched waist was something amazing.
The familiar spiritual power followed the familiar path and quickly circulated in his meridians. Soon, he felt his body heat up slightly. All 36,000 pores on his body seemed to emit a stream of hot air. This hot air seemed extremely strange. After it was emitted, it did not dissipate. Instead, it gathered at his wrist and turned into an extremely concentrated force.
Sect Returning Great Thousand Seal!
The power of the seal passed through the spatial confinement and bombarded the Iron-armored Earth Dragon in the blink of an eye.
Boom!
A powerful explosion spread out. The force was so strong that it even formed a ripple in the air. Even the flowers and grass on the surrounding grass were cut off by the violent wind.
However, Xiao Chen didn't relax at all. He knew very well that with the Iron-armored Earth Dragon's powerful defense, as long as his Sect Returning Great Thousand Seal didn't directly hit the soft spot on its abdomen, it would definitely not cause too much damage.
However, with his current cultivation, he could not use the Sect Returning Great Thousand Seal in any position like the Unmovable Foundation Seal. Moreover, after using the Sect Returning Great Thousand Seal, his body would be sluggish for a few seconds. However, if he was next to the Iron-armored Earth Dragon, he would probably be torn into pieces. Only such a long-distance attack method could have a certain effect.
Roar!
A tragic voice came from the smoke and dust, mixed with incomparable pain. Obviously, the Iron-armored Earth Dragon was completely furious. In the past few years, it had never been injured so badly by this incomparably weak guy in front of it. It was truly an indelible humiliation. It must eat this human in front of it to vent the resentment in its heart.
However, the small-headed Iron-armored Earth Dragon did not know that in the past four years, Xiao Chen would spend a whole month thinking about his gains and losses in this battle after being ravaged by it every month. He would even carefully comb through the strength of each attack, the way he dodged, and so on.
After a long time, he naturally summed up a lot of experience. Today's battle was also the result of Xiao Chen's long planning. Almost every detail was under Xiao Chen's control. In addition, he had now completely reached the peak of the Spiritual Master and stabilized his cultivation. He only needed to wait for a small opportunity to break through. It was not surprising that he could beat the Iron-armored Earth Dragon to such a state.
The exciting content began. Xiao Chen's strength would be greatly improved in this volume, and the plot was also incomparably carefree!
