Chapter 1478: Each Relies on Their Own Abilities
But this time, the scorpion went back again, and another ferocious beast appeared.
But it could use treasures to defend and attack, the opponent's strength didn't increase. Moreover, after victory, the ferocious beast's energy dissipated immediately, giving no reward to the scorpion.
"External forces can be used; one can rest in place midway. After retreating, one must fight again."
Everyone also summarized the pattern.
At this moment, everyone already knew the pattern here, and each was considering what method to use to fight the over ninety ferocious beasts.
Guo Da will surely use formations and treasures.
"I'll use pills! Poison pills, thunderburst pills, etc., maybe they'll work!" Luo Yun said.
"Then quickly check if you have enough pills! The battle isn't just one fight, but over ninety. I estimate it's ninety-nine or a hundred!" Ye Liuyun speculated.
Moreover, the further back, the more ferocious beasts there are, and the consumption grows greater.
Even though Luo Yun had reserves, she hadn't prepared that many related pills. So she immediately began on the spot to concoct various attack-capable pills.
"And you?" Ye Liuyun then asked A Ya.
"I'll first restore my true essence, then try spellcraft." A Ya said.
The sigils she released were considered combat power by this secret realm, so they basically couldn't be used; she could only rely on herself.
Ye Liuyun also nodded: "Hmm, if spellcraft works, then you should find it quite easy."
Afterward, Ye Liuyun asked Meng Zhangxing.
Meng Zhangxing directly released a puppet. I need to test whether this thing works.
Meng Zhangxing is skilled in mechanical techniques, so his puppet is driven by mechanisms, requiring no infusion of true essence; only divine sense control is needed.
Meng Zhangxing activated a puppet to walk forward, but the secret realm showed no response at all.
"There's a way!" Meng Zhangxing exclaimed excitedly.
Meng Zhangxing had the puppet walk all the way to the opposite exit and back, and the secret realm launched no attack.
Afterward, Meng Zhangxing again brought the puppet forward for a test. Sure enough, the secret realm condensed into a single ferocious beast that attacked Meng Zhangxing.
Meng Zhangxing's puppet, not only strong of arm but covered all over with attack weapons, could smash that ferocious beast into an energy state with a single punch.
But what surprised everyone was that those energies immediately vanished, without letting Meng Zhangxing absorb them.
"Huh? This secret realm actually looks down on me?" Meng Zhangxing remarked in surprise, making everyone laugh.
"I guess you didn't defeat the ferocious beast by your own strength, so the secret realm isn't giving you a reward," Guo Da analyzed.
Upon hearing that, Meng Zhangxing retreated again, personally fought another bout. This time after his victory, the secret realm indeed gave him a reward.
"What pure energy, can be directly absorbed!" Meng Zhangxing shouted.
But he immediately added regretfully: "Unfortunately, later I can only pass with the aid of the puppet."
Meng Zhangxing could indeed fight above his level, but he certainly couldn't simultaneously face over ninety opponents of the same realm. In the end he will surely have to use the puppet.
"Let's spread out a bit, each start moving forward; anyway we can't help each other!" Ye Liuyun suggested.
Thus, everyone dispersed, to avoid mutual interference.
Meng Zhangxing and Guo Da both began their battles.
After Guo Da barely won the first match and absorbed energy, thereafter he basically relied on formations and treasures to pass, so the secret realm gave him no reward at all.
Meng Zhangxing, however, fought vigorously, persisting in his own combat. After a short while, he had already fought eight ferocious beasts, still appearing completely at ease.
Ye Liuyun stayed in place, unmoving.
He wanted to wait and see how A Ya and Luo Yun were doing; if they couldn't pass on their own, then he would need to bring them through together.
After A Ya restored her true essence, she also began trying. Upon trying, spellcraft actually worked, which delighted her immensely. In that case, she would have no problem passing this level.
Thus A Ya did not retreat again, but kept moving forward, and soon she surpassed Meng Zhangxing.
Moreover, A Ya won by her own abilities; each victory over a ferocious beast granted an energy reward, benefiting her greatly.
After surpassing Meng Zhangxing, she had to stop to cultivate and consolidate her true essence.
Luo Yun had to prepare many pills, and Ye Liuyun wasn't in a hurry either.
He also released everyone inside the space world to try it out; at least absorbing a few rounds of energy wouldn't be a loss for them.
Liang Xue, Lei Ming, and others were all capable of challenging above their level, so at the start they proceeded very smoothly. As for avatars, needless to say.
But he remained in place cultivating, waiting for Luo Yun to finish her alchemy.
After Luo Yun finished her pills, she saw that everyone had already gone far ahead, while Ye Liuyun was still nearby.
"Why haven't you left?" she asked Ye Liuyun.
"I'll be the last to leave, in case someone runs into trouble midway. I can also lend a hand," Ye Liuyun explained.
"Are you worried I'll have an accident midway?" Luo Yun obviously misunderstood, thinking Ye Liuyun was deliberately waiting for her.
"It's not just you; A Ya might not make it to the end either!"
Ye Liuyun spoke the truth, but Luo Yun wishfully took it as him worrying about her, and she felt delighted.
"I've finished refining the pills; shall we go?" Luo Yun wanted to walk together with Ye Liuyun.
"You go first; I'll follow a step behind," Ye Liuyun said.
"Okay!" Luo Yun's face flushed, thinking Ye Liuyun was again looking after her.
Immediately, she also relied on her own strength to defeat a ferocious beast, absorbed its energy, and continued forward.
Only then did Ye Liuyun set out.
The first ferocious beast was scattered by Ye Liuyun's palm, and he absorbed its energy.
Afterward, he waited for Luo Yun.
Whenever Luo Yun advanced a segment, he also caught up that segment, always staying at the rear.
Not long after, Liang Xue was the first to retreat back.
Her combat ability wasn't strong; using treasures yielded no absorbable energy, so there was no need to keep fighting.
Then, Ye Tiandao also retreated back.
Her sword intent was strong, but the True Essence in her core pellet was insufficient to sustain her further fighting.
Long Nv and Lei Ming, meanwhile, both relied on their Physical Body and held on a bit longer.
Especially Lei Ming, he handled lightning-like and poisonous qi somewhat better, so he's still relatively relaxed in the fight so far.
His clone took the opportunity to temper his Physical Body; so far he hasn't used any other power. He's purely relying on his realm to clash head-on with ferocious beasts, having already fought over twenty of them.
This surprised Meng Zhangxing, Guo Da, and the others greatly.
They never expected that this masked helper, Ye Liuyun, would have such formidable combat power.
Moreover, he is clearly a Demon Cultivator, yet he hasn't used Demon Qi at all in the fight so far, nor any poison; he's purely tempering his Physical Body.
