Tie Ta was stunned when he saw the head flying high into the air and the body still wildly spraying blood. He could not believe that they had killed a Class 1 Magical Beast so easily. This was because the viper had not even made them expend much energy.
Jian Chen slowly pulled out the iron rod from the snake's body and casually wiped the blood off the tip of the rod. In truth, the greatest credit for killing the Class 1 Magical Beast was still Jian Chen. If not for his lightning-fast sword piercing through the snake's body, Tie Ta's axe would not have been able to cut through the snake's head so easily.
Tie Ta retracted his axe and stared in disbelief at the headless snake's body that was twisting and turning. He muttered,"Changyang Xiang Tian, is this really a Class 1 Magical Beast? Why is it so weak?”
Jian Chen chuckled,"Actually, it's not that this magical beast is too weak. It's just that the two of us working together are too strong. This Class 1 Magical Beast is already enough to cause quite a bit of trouble for those who have just become Saints.”
Tie Ta chuckled. He wiped the blood off his axe and placed it on his shoulder. He laughed foolishly,"If that's the case, then we can easily kill Class 1 Magical Beasts here.”
Hearing this, Jian Chen seemed to have thought of something. He couldn't help but smile happily,"That's right. With our strength, even if we encounter a Class 1 Magical Beast by ourselves, we would be able to kill it. Moreover, if we join forces, it can be said that there are no Magical Beasts in the Second Region that can pose a threat to us. After all, the Magical Beasts here are all reared by the academy, and their purpose is to train the students 'combat ability. It's impossible for there to be any Magical Beasts that are too powerful, unless…" With that, Jian Chen paused and began to think.
Jian Chen's words caused Tie Ta to become excited."Unless…"
"Unless we encounter a group of magical beasts, but I don't know if there will be any here.”Jian Chen's face gradually became stern. With their strength, dealing with a single Class 1 Magical Beast would not be difficult, but if they encountered a group of them, that might not be the case.
Tie Ta frowned and said uncertainly,"That shouldn't be possible. I've been fighting wild beasts in the forest for a long time, but I've never encountered a pack of wild beasts.”
"That might not be the case. I've read a lot of books about magical beasts in the library, and I've discovered that some types of magical beasts basically live in groups. Their sense of unity is very strong, and it's almost impossible for them to act alone.”As he spoke, Jian Chen arrived in front of the headless snake. At this moment, he realized that the snake was actually six to seven meters long. Afterward, Jian Chen directly stabbed the rod into the snake's body and took out a blood-stained crystal.
On the Tian Yuan Continent, there were many types of magical beasts, and their monster cores were all located in different places. Some were in the head, some in the chest, some in the stomach, while the monster cores of snake type magical beasts were located seven inches away from the body. Jian Chen had already learned about this from books.
"Bang!" Tie Ta swung the axe on his shoulder at a large tree beside him, cutting it in half. He roared,"If we really encounter a group of magical beasts, I, the Iron Tower, will definitely make sure they never return.”
Jian Chen picked up the monster core from the viper's body and wiped the blood off the grass before throwing it to Tie Ta,"Alright, stop howling. Although there are quite a few magical beasts living in groups on the Tian Yuan Continent, it's hard to say if we'll meet them. After all, this isn't a magical beast forest.”
Tie Ta took the monster core from Jian Chen and asked in confusion,"Why are you giving it to me?"
Jian Chen smiled,"You killed the snake, so the monster core should be yours."”Seeing that Tie Ta was about to refuse, Jian Chen continued,"Don't refuse this monster core. Just accept it. After all, we still have at least three days. During this time, we will definitely have a very rich harvest.”
"Hehe, alright then. I'll take this monster core first. No matter who kills the next magical beast, the monster core will belong to you.”Tie Ta's face was filled with joy as he held the monster core in his hand. After all, this was the first monster core he had obtained from killing a magical beast.
Afterwards, the two of them continued on their way. Knowing that Jian Chen's sense of danger was extremely high, Tie Ta had very straightforwardly handed the task of guarding over to Jian Chen. He continued to swing his axe to clear the path ahead. Although continuously swinging such a heavy axe was extremely exhausting, to Tie Ta who had innate strength, it was like eating a meal. It did not consume him at all. After all, Not only was his strength terrifying, but it was also almost endless. Exhaustion seemed impossible for him.
Not long after the two of them left, Jian Chen's ears twitched and he suddenly stopped. He immediately reached out to grab Tie Ta, who was cutting grass, and made a hand gesture to keep quiet.
Tie Ta understood and stopped cutting the grass. He gripped his axe tightly with both hands and stood next to Jian Chen. His eyes shone with a bright light as he looked around warily.
The two of them breathed very slowly, and their expressions were filled with vigilance. The only difference was that Tie Ta's eyes constantly scanned the surroundings while Jian Chen closed his eyes slightly, using his perception to sense everything around him.
The place was overgrown with weeds, so it was difficult to see anything with the naked eye. Even if there was an unknown danger hidden within, it was probably not something that could be seen with the naked eye. As a result, Tie Ta's tiger-like eyes scanned the surroundings for a long time but found nothing.
Jian Chen gently closed his eyes as his sensitive ears twitched from time to time to catch all the sounds around him. At the same time, Jian Chen's mind was focused to a high degree as he used his powerful "spirit" to sense everything around him.
At this moment, Jian Chen couldn't help but reminisce about his battle with Dugu Qiubai in his previous life. In the end, when he was about to die, his strength had broken through and he had reached the realm of Spirit Sword. At that time, his "Spirit" had become extremely powerful and could easily spread out to cover everything around him. Anything within the range of his "Spirit" would be able to escape his senses.
However, what Jian Chen felt regretful about was that after he reincarnated, although his soul was extremely powerful, it was no longer able to spread out. Otherwise, the dense forest would not be a problem for Jian Chen at all. It would be a piece of cake for him to find the magical beasts hidden within.
Jian Chen's spirit was extremely focused as he tried his best to sense everything around him. Slowly, his spirit entered a special state. Although his spirit did not spread out, at that moment, his spirit seemed to have established a subtle connection with the various plants around him. It was as if he had fused with them. This feeling was extremely mysterious.
However, when Jian Chen entered this state, his perception immediately reached a new height. Finally, he could hear a faint breathing sound. This breathing was so faint that even if one stood next to it, it would be difficult to detect it.
Jian Chen's eyes snapped open in an instant. With a flash, he disappeared from where he stood and shot to the side. Along the way, Jian Chen's body twisted and adjusted constantly to avoid the weeds and branches that blocked his path.
In just a short moment, Jian Chen had already crossed ten meters. With a swift thrust of his iron rod, he silently pierced through a few leaves and cut through a few weeds. With lightning speed, he stabbed toward a black shadow hidden in the weeds.
"Roar!"
With a pained cry, a black figure leapt up from the grass and opened its mouth wide to pounce at Jian Chen.
It was a black panther that was at least two meters long. At this moment, there was a finger-sized hole on the forehead of the black panther. Blood continuously flowed out from the wound and slowly flowed down its face that was covered in black hair, making it look even more ferocious.
Jian Chen's gaze was as sharp as a blade. A sliver of a cold smile appeared on his calm face. With a shake of his arm, he stabbed the iron rod in his hand with unbelievable speed once again, aiming for the panther's throat. In the end, before the black panther could react, the tip of the iron rod had already pierced deeply into its throat. In addition, the black panther's body was currently pouncing forward in mid-air, and its heavy body was constantly falling. In the end, the iron rod that had pierced into its throat continued to penetrate deep into its throat, and the iron rod broke out from its spine.
This time, the black panther didn't even have time to scream before it died. It fell to the ground with its eyes wide open, dying with grievances.
Only then did Tie Ta rush over from behind. When he saw the black panther lying on the ground with its throat pierced by the rusty iron rod, his eyes widened in shock.
"Changyang Xiang Tian, this…this…Did you kill him?" Tie Ta's voice trembled as he asked. Even though he had personally seen Jian Chen's weapon pierce through the panther's throat, he still couldn't believe what he had just seen. Because time had been too short, from the moment Jian Chen had charged over, Tie Ta had already followed him as fast as he could. However, by the time he arrived, he had already seen a Class 1 Magical Beast die at Jian Chen's hands. This period of time had definitely not even taken a single breath, not even half a breath.
To kill a Class 1 Magical Beast in less than half a breath's time was a piece of cake for some experts, but Tie Ta knew Jian Chen's strength very well. He had not reached the Saint level yet, and the weapon he used was only a rusty iron rod.
Jian Chen stepped on the black panther's head and slowly pulled out the rod. He smiled without a care and said,"That's right, I killed it. It was just a coincidence. Originally, it couldn't have died so quickly, but it insisted on drilling into my weapon. In the end, it didn't even have time to scream before it died.”
Hearing this, Tie Ta scratched his head. He stared at Jian Chen's calm face with suspicion and asked in disbelief,"Really? You're not lying to me?"
Jian Chen chuckled,"Of course it's true. Why would I lie to you?"”
Seeing Jian Chen's face, Tie Ta's mind was filled with doubt. He murmured,"Is there really such a stupid magical beast? It actually gave itself to a weapon.”
