Chapter 98

It hurts—it hurts so much!

In the ruins of a vegetable market in the south district of Yushan City.

A pale-faced young man with dark circles under his eyes was sitting bored among a pile of corpses of the Nine Nether evil creatures, yawning constantly as if he had not woken up yet.

Not far from him, a five-meter-tall evil ghost with a green face and fangs, wearing ancient armor, was holding a big knife and chopping the corpses of the evil creatures, seeming to enjoy the process.

This young man is none other than one of the only three people in the current exam who have defeated the evil creature in the Foundation Establishment Stage.

The third high school student...Shen Feiyang.

Shen Feiyang looked at the knife ghost who was still playing with the corpse and sighed helplessly.

Then he scratched his hair that looked like a chicken coop, looked at the ancient evil ghost with dead fish eyes weakly, and said, "Okay, Daogui, don't kill them; these are all fake."

Although the young man said so, the ancient evil ghost continued to chop the corpse at its feet.

Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that what it was chopping was the corpse of an evil creature in the Foundation Establishment Stage.

The young man sighed helplessly when he saw that the ancient evil ghost did not listen to him at all.

Then he raised his hand, and a pair of red lips suddenly appeared in the palm of his right hand.

When the red lips opened, a terrifying suction force was released from them, directly sucking in the ancient evil ghost who was still "playing.".

After doing all this, the boy raised his head and looked towards the west side of Yushan City.

He secretly thought to himself, "I don't know what the deputy leader is thinking of letting me enter the four major academies."

"As for the important places of the Immortal Alliance like the Four Great Daoist Academies, there are many old monsters who have not been out for a long time. Isn't this just letting me walk into the tiger's mouth?"

"If I make a mistake, even death would be the best thing. I'm just afraid that life would be worse than death."

Although the boy's heart was full of complaints against the 'Deputy Leader'.

But he knew he had no right to refuse.

If he were admitted to one of the four major Taoist academies, he would probably live a life worse than death.

But if he refuses the deputy leader's order, he will suffer a fate worse than death.

No need to say much about how to choose.

If he had known earlier that he would be assigned such a dangerous mission after joining the Black Lotus Cult.

Then he would never join the Black Lotus Cult, even at the risk of his life.

Right now, it's easy for him to go up the mountain, but difficult to go down.

"Ah, I need to perform well. After all, if I can be directly admitted to one of the four academies, then I will have completed most of my mission, and I will have more time to do my things."

With this thought in mind, the young man walked towards the west of Yushan City.

If Shen Feiyang wants to be recommended by the Taoist Academy, he must demonstrate his worthiness to be recommended in this exam.

Although he had killed an evil creature in the Foundation Establishment Stage, he did so by exorcising ghosts.

So he was worried that the four major academies might think that he was taking advantage and would not give him the qualification for admission.

Therefore, if he wants to secure the qualification for admission, he must show more talent.

For example, in addition to his innate magical power, the Soul-Binding Order, he also has a talent for talismans.

Only in this way could he ensure that he would be noticed by the investigators and be qualified to be admitted to one of the four major academies.

Ruins of Yushan City, west district of the city.

Because three evil creatures in the Foundation Establishment Stage died in succession within three days.

As a result, the remaining evil creatures in the Foundation Establishment Stage all returned to the mysterious black tree.

Just look at the five evil creatures in the Foundation Establishment Stage that have returned.

The ant-like evil creature in the foundation-establishment stage on the treetop said dissatisfiedly, "Where is the white-faced spider? Why didn't he come back?"

"Didn't I tell you that a few powerful people have emerged among the human race recently, so you'd better be careful and not act alone?"

[Name: Gold-eating Ant-Man (Royal Family)]

[Race: Nine Nether Clan]

[Strength: fifth level of Foundation Establishment Stage]

[Features: A special humanoid creature evolved from the black-striped ants, containing part of the Nine Nether royal family bloodline, with outstanding boxing talent, extremely dangerous]

Hearing this, the giant hornworm that was with the white-faced spider before scratched the back of its head and said puzzledly, "The white-faced spider came back with me, but it suddenly said that its children seemed to have found a handsome boy, so it went out alone again."

"You know, it has no resistance to beautiful creatures. I think it has had enough fun and will be back soon, right?"

Upon hearing this, the Gold-Eating Ant-Man's face instantly turned dark.

But just when he was about to say something, he suddenly stopped.

Then he stood up and looked in a certain direction at the ruins of Yushan City with a grim expression.

"You all feel it, right?"

The other evil creatures around nodded one after another and looked in the direction of the Gold-Eating Ant-Man with serious expressions.

Because just now, they sensed that the breath belonging to the white-faced spider... disappeared.

This means that the other party either left the "Black Rock Tribe" and chose to join other Nine Nether clans.

Or dead.

But now they are in a brand new world, and there are no other Nine Nether Clans around.

So the disappearance of the white-faced spider's breath could only mean one thing—that it had just died.

Thinking of this, the Gold-Eating Ant-Man couldn't help but curse this guy as an idiot.

They told it to come back and stay there, and then let their men go out to explore. After discovering a strong enemy, they rushed forward.

Now, it insists on going out alone.

As a result, this trip... there is no return.

Ten minutes ago, at a subway station in the west of the city.

[You killed a Nine Nether Parasitic Spider (not upgraded) and gained 0.5 experience points...]

[You killed a Nine Nether Spider-Faced Man (Qi gathering Stage 4) and gained 40 experience points...]

Su Chen was in a good mood as he looked at the densely packed spider cocoons in front of him.

Because he felt that he had discovered an excellent place to spawn evil creatures.

As expected, this should be the lair of the evil spider-faced man that he encountered when he first entered the examination room.

It was after coming here that he figured out the origin of the evil spider-faced man.

It turns out that the so-called spider-faced man is a new species born after a parasitic spider parasitizes the human body.

And in this nest, he saw at least tens of thousands of parasitic spiders and a large number of spider-faced men.

If he could kill all these guys, he would gain a huge amount of experience points.

How many experience points can this be?

Su Chen conservatively estimated that it would be at least in the tens of thousands.

Therefore, facing such a huge temptation, how could Su Chen miss it?

He looked at the parasitic spiders and large numbers of spider-faced men who were startled by him and then rushed towards him like a tide.

Su Chen smiled, which was rare.

The last time he laughed so happily was when the Jade-faced Mantis came to him without any hesitation.

After dealing with these guys, he might be able to upgrade his Dragon Roar Breaking Sky Strike Sword Skill to the 'Dao entry-level'.

Thinking of this, Su Chen smiled even more happily.
