Chapter 425 Mission, Strange Kung Fu
"In the past, when our human vanguard army met the army of the Eldar Alliance in the Star Sea, we usually had the upper hand."
"But in the past few hundred years, the wars between the Eldar Alliance armies that met in the Star Sea have become increasingly bizarre."
"Especially when a group of people unite together, their power becomes stronger and stronger."
"Under such circumstances, the longer the Eldar alliance accumulates, the more disadvantageous it will be for the human race."
"So at this time, since we can't gain any advantage, it's impossible to start a Saint Venerable-level war."
Yang Wanshan said this while looking at the jade slip in his hand with a frown on his face.
"What's wrong?" Xu Chen asked.
"The Daxi Sect has 10 Heavenly Immortal Realm disciples in the Qinglong Army."
"The casualties in the last few hundred years have been quite heavy, with nearly half of them perishing in the Star Sea."
"Resurrecting them will require another huge amount of resources." Yang Wanshan said with a sigh, feeling a little distressed.
"Don't they care about resurrection at the Human Emperor Temple?" Xu Chen asked curiously.
"Of course, but their realm will be lower after resurrection. The resources I'm talking about are the resources consumed to get them back to the Heavenly Immortal Realm."
Xu Chen nodded.
"Brother, please wait another five or six thousand years. My clone is currently refining a large-scale immortal weapon factory. Once it is successfully refined, it will be able to mass-produce the most advanced immortal weapon armor and immortal weapon for cultivation techniques."
“Then we’ll have access to more resources.”
Although he couldn't give any suggestions, Xu Chen could still find a way to get resources.
"Okay." Yang Wanshan's eyes lit up.
Xu Chen stood up and prepared to return to the cave to continue his retreat, but at this time the human race's communication instrument rang.
He checked with his divine sense and found that it was a task assigned to him by the Temple of the Human Emperor.
"I wanted to go back and continue my retreat and practice, but the Human Emperor Temple just issued a mission."
"I'll go first."
"Junior brother, go ahead. I'll be here at the sect." Yang Wanshan nodded slightly.
Jiuhuang City, a secret place within the headquarters of the Human Emperor Temple.
Xu Chen looked at the handsome young man in front of him.
Although Xu Chen did not know this young man, he had a great relationship with him.
This person is none other than the second-level genius that Xu Chen brought back from the big clan when he entered the secret realm.
"Zhang Yuxian greets Fellow Daoist Xu." Zhang Yuxian bowed to Xu Chen.
"You're welcome, Brother Zhang." Xu Chen smiled and gently helped Zhang Yuxian up.
"Yu Xian needs to quickly improve his combat power within a hundred years, so I thought of you."
"I want you to spend a hundred years training Jade Immortal so that his combat power can reach about 70% of yours, or at least 60%. "The Daluo Realm Immortal Official stated the task requirements.
"In a hundred years, with 70% of my combat power, is there any important mission?" Xu Chen sensed Zhang Yuxian's breath.
"A spiritual saint of heaven and earth inherited the legacy. By chance, Jade Immortal triggered the mark and had a chance to enter the secret realm of inheritance."
“Later, according to the deduction of Great Lord Tianji, if you want to obtain the inheritance, you need 70% of your combat power to fully pass the test and accept the inheritance.” The immortal official of Daluo realm explained.
Zhang Yuxian next to him looked at Xu Chen with trepidation.
Just by sensing Xu Chen's breath, he felt that he was no match for him.
"Let's test our combat power first."
To be honest, Xu Chen didn't want to take this task.
The mission at the Human Emperor Temple took a hundred years, but the reward was only three million human contribution points. He could earn that much by traveling six times a year.
In the illusory battlefield of the secret realm, Zhang Yuxian couldn't help swallowing his saliva as he looked at the five huge Holy Sun Golden Crows.
"After defeating these five Holy Sun Golden Crows, you can barely have 5% of my combat power."
"let's start."
As Xu Chen spoke, he waved his hand and let the five Holy Sun Golden Crows rush over, and finally watched the show quietly from the side.
Those five Holy Sun Golden Crows were like five Holy Suns, and the Holy Sun Fairy Fire they released made Zhang Yuxian a little overwhelmed to deal with.
"It may be insulting to you to ask for 300 million Terran Contribution Points for this mission, but this is the only price I can offer."
"As for your losses, the Human Emperor Temple will find ways to make up for them for you in other ways in the future." The voice of the Daluo realm immortal official sounded beside Xu Chen's ears.
"The Human Emperor Temple represents the human race. I am under the protection of the human race. Even if this mission does not give me any contribution points for the human race, I will accept it."
"only……"
As Xu Chen spoke, he looked at Zhang Yuxian who was fighting the five Holy Sun Golden Crows in the distance and seemed to be hesitant to talk.
He felt that Zhang Yuxian was probably the weakest two-lamp genius he had ever seen, even weaker than the two-lamp genius from the Spirit Clan whom he had killed.
"His combat power is somewhat inferior, but his resilience is something I have rarely seen in my life."
"You'll find out if you keep reading."
Listening to the words of the Daluo realm immortal official, Xu Chen felt a little curious.
The fact that a well-informed Luojing immortal official could say that resilience is rare in life proves that Zhang Yuxian in front of him is indeed quite capable.
The subsequent battle allowed Xu Chen to witness the resilience that the Daluo realm immortal official mentioned.
There were several times when Xu Chen felt that Zhang Yuxian was about to be burned to ashes by the five Holy Sun Golden Crows, but she managed to survive.
As time went on, the energy of the five Holy Sun Golden Crows began to weaken due to the battle. Although Zhang Yuxian was in a miserable state, his condition was still the same as usual.
"Sir Immortal Official, what kind of martial arts did he learn?" Xu Chen couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Nine turns of Nirvana, and currently I have cultivated to the peak of the fourth turn." The voice of the immortal official in the Daluo realm was filled with a hint of amazement.
"Nine Turns of Nirvana." Xu Chen recalled this extremely niche and demanding martial art.
He just took a quick look at it and skipped it because he didn't meet the requirements.
"Due to the special requirements of this technique, there are only a few people in the entire human race who practice it, but Zhang Yuxian is completely compatible with it, as if this technique was created specifically for him."
As the two were talking, Zhang Yuxian in the field had already used up the last bit of his immortal power and was about to run out of energy.
The characteristics of his technique began to take effect, forcibly squeezing out some immortal power from his Dantian.
Just like the first stream of the Yangtze River, its follow-up is endless.
Not long after, Xu Chen felt that Zhang Yuxian's breath had returned to its peak.
At this time, the five Holy Sun Golden Crows had already consumed 5% of their essence.
If Xu Chen does not intervene, his combat effectiveness will gradually weaken.
"It is worthy of being the most niche and top-notch martial art of the human race. The effect is truly rare." Xu Chen couldn't help but marvel at it, then he formed a seal with one hand and pointed at the battlefield in the distance.
In an instant, the five Holy Sun Golden Crows merged into one and turned into a thousand-foot-long golden crow.
In an instant, the power of the Holy Sun Immortal Fire burning on the battlefield increased by 40%.
Zhang Yuxian's expression on the battlefield became bitter, but he still fought with the Thousand-foot-tall Holy Yang Golden Crow.
"The first stage ends and the second stage begins. This is my true appearance at 1% of my strength." Xu Chen's voice echoed on the battlefield.
"Master Immortal Official, how many times can Zhang Yuxian achieve Nirvana on the battlefield?"
After starting the second stage, Xu Chen began to chat with the Daluojing Immortal Temple again.
"Looking at his will, he has reached the most tenacious state, even the ninth transformation is not too much."
"But every time he turns four times, he will consume a certain amount of potential."
"But there are special pills that can reduce the potential consumption to after the sixth level."
When Xu Chen heard this, he was slightly shocked.
"However, the characteristics of this technique mean that although Zhang Yuxian consumes a lot of resources in his practice, the immortal power that can be exerted in each reversal is limited."
As he was speaking, there was a slight change on the battlefield in the distance.
Zhang Yuxian's Dharma image, holding an ice axe and burning the power of the origin, broke through the void and appeared above the thousand-foot-high Holy Sun Golden Crow, and directly split Huashan with one blow. This attack that burned out the origin directly knocked out two of the thousand-foot-high Golden Crow's origins.
Feeling the exhaustion of immortal power in his body, Zhang Yuxian gritted his teeth and directly started the second stage of Nirvana.
The thousand-foot-tall Holy Sun Golden Crow also broke away from the attack and immediately let out an angry roar.
Countless Holy Sun Immortal Fires transformed into one Holy Sun chain after another, wrapping around Zhang Yuxian.
At the same time, a Holy Sun slowly rose from the body of the thousand-foot Holy Sun Golden Crow, and then suddenly smashed into the battlefield.
"boom!!!"
The huge holy sun exploded, and the violent power of the holy sun tore through the void.
Like an ion storm, it annihilated everything on the battlefield.
Zhang Yuxian, who had just completed the third transformation, had his real body destroyed in an instant, leaving only a Nirvana Seed the size of a basketball.
"Not dead yet?" Xu Chen's voice began to sound shocked.
At this time, the Seed of Nirvana split and turned into Zhang Yuxian again.
“How incredible!”
The explosion of the Holy Sun just now consumed nearly 40% of the essence of the Thousand-foot Holy Sun Golden Crow.
Now the combat power of the Thousand-foot Holy Sun Golden Crow has been reduced to 60%.
"interesting!"
"Just now, Zhang Yuxian used the opportunity of Nirvana to block your attack from the Holy Sun Golden Crow."
"He is now in the fourth transformation state. If he doesn't take the Nirvana Pill, he will be considered a loser." The voice of the Daluo realm immortal official sounded in Xu Chen's ears.
"It seems that the inheritance of the Holy Saint of the Spirit of Heaven and Earth is very important, which makes the clan attach so much importance to it."
What Xu Chen meant was that there was also a special immortal official from the Daluo realm here to accompany and explain.
“It is indeed very important.”
"According to the information from the Holy Saint of Heaven and Earth, there may be a top-notch innate spiritual treasure, the Nirvana Gourd, in that secret realm."
“If Zhang Yuxian passes the test and receives the inheritance, combined with the great magical powers in the inheritance and this innate spiritual treasure, when he reaches the peak of the Great Venerable, he might be able to take on a Saint Venerable.”
Hearing this, Xu Chen looked at Zhang Yuxian on the battlefield with a more serious look.
"As expected of a second-level genius, this opportunity is heaven-defying."
As soon as Xu Chen finished saying this, he felt that he was being looked at by the Daluo realm immortal official.
The battle in the fantasy battlefield is still going on, and Zhang Yuxian is still in full condition at this time.
But the combat power of the thousand-foot-tall Holy Sun Golden Crow is not as strong as before.
The situation on the battlefield began to reverse, and Zhang Yuxian began to slowly gain the upper hand.
"I have to say, it's a bit difficult." Xu Chen commented. He was commenting from the perspective of Holy Sun Golden Crow.
“It’s really hard to talk about.”
“Once Jade Immortal cultivates to the Great Venerable Realm, even Saint Venerable strongmen will have a headache when seeing him on the battlefield.” said the Immortal Official of Daluo Realm.
At this time, the fighting on the battlefield had been going on for 6 days and 6 nights, and Xu Chen was getting a little impatient.
The thousand-foot-tall Holy Sun Golden Crow in the field also sensed Xu Chen's emotions and once again unleashed its strongest move.
But this time Zhang Yuxian did not force the fifth turn.
After the battle, Zhang Yuxian came out of the illusion battlefield with an expression that seemed to show some doubt about life.
"Friend Xu, I'm not questioning you."
“I want to ask, does the Holy Sun Golden Crow really have 50% of your combat power?” Zhang Yuxian asked doubtfully.
It's not like he hasn't met a second-level genius at the same level before. Although his fighting power is weak, he can endure. Even if the opponent is stronger than him, he can use his magical powers to endure slowly, and wait until the opponent's fighting power is weakened before defeating him.
Even if you encounter a powerful opponent, at least you can force the opponent to exert his full strength.
"Fellow Daoist Zhang's suspicion is not unreasonable."
"How about we play another game?"
"I'm going to use all my strength this time." Xu Chen said to Zhang Yuxian.
"Let's do it again!" Zhang Yuxian was a little skeptical.
The two walked into the fantasy battlefield again.
This time the battle lasted only a cup of tea.
Xu Chen ended the fight with only five strikes.
"Fellow Daoist Xu, Jade Immortal bows down to me."
"Okay, I have opened up a secret realm in the Guangxu Divine Tower specifically for you."
"Xu Chen, Zhang Yuxian is now handed over to you." The immortal official of Daluo realm came over and said.
"Okay." Xu Chen nodded.
Xu Chen and Zhang Yuxian came to the secret realm on the top floor of the Guangxu Divine Tower.
"It's difficult to reach 70% of my combat power in a hundred years."
"But the characteristics of the technique you are practicing are somewhat helpful in this regard."
"In the next period of time, I will first condense a clone with 50% of my strength. You must fight it day and night."
"When we are even, I will switch to a clone with 60% combat power."
"During combat, I will switch between close combat, long-range combat, and various other fighting methods."
"Let's start now."
Xu Chen directly let the Dream Dao world descend and reduced the strength of the Dream Dao clone to 50%.
"Let's start now."
After saying this, Xu Chen left the secret realm and began to wander around the Nine Emperor City.
The Dream Dao clone has exerted 50% of his strength, with the Dream Dao world as backup energy, which is enough for Zhang Yuxian to fight for several months.
After the energy is exhausted, Xu Chen can switch over and review the situation with Zhang Yuxian.
Of course he would be happy to do nothing if he had a clone to do this kind of sparring work.
In the most luxurious tea room on the top floor of a teahouse, Xu Chen sipped tea leisurely and sent a message to Yang Wanshan, asking him to stop the supply of Dao Xian Crystals to the Floating Island Cave.
Then he notified Su Yueyao to come and accompany him.
A hundred years will tell him how boring it is to be alone here.
After Xu Chen finished his third cup of tea, Su Yueyao rushed over.
"Husband, we really need to rest here for a hundred years." Su Yueyao looked at Xu Chen in surprise.
"That's not the case. I have to go back every few months to check the results."
Finally, Xu Chen talked about the content of the task he had taken on, of course he did not mention any confidential parts.
"That's great!"
"Husband, I know that the top restaurants in the main world have added a lot of new dishes in recent years."
"It will take a long time just to taste these new dishes." Su Yueyao knew Xu Chen's hobby.
Hearing this, Xu Chen could no longer sit still.
"Come on, let's go and try new dishes as a family every day."
At this time, inside the Guangxu Divine Tower.
Zhang Yuxian looked at the Meng Dao clone in front of him with an expression of disbelief.
He didn't doubt the opponent's strength, but he had never felt that he was such a waste. (End of this chapter)
