Chapter 469 The Stone Monster is Gone
Chapter 469 The Stone Monster is Gone
"Lan! We can't stop him."
The giant rock monster slowly moved towards the base, and control skills alone could not completely stop it.
Lan Geng made a choice immediately:
"You lead a team to intercept the monsters surrounding the giant stone monster, while the other cultivators attack the gaps in the giant stone monster's skin. We must take down the giant stone monster within three hours!"
"Yes!"
-
"Phew, finally finished. I'm exhausted after three hours of fighting. This Evil Ring Stone Absorption really disgusted me."
"To completely empty the brain from the head, the malignant rings must be pulverized and then completely removed so that they won't regenerate. Who could endure that?"
"Indeed, I feel like I'm going to vomit up all the pills I've taken these past few days."
"It's not that bad, the pills will be absorbed in about an hour at most."
"This is my first time being on a team, and I'm finally experiencing what it's like to participate in a university competition. It's so much fun not having to use your brain."
"Haha, following Sister Jiang is guaranteed to be awesome."
"Shouldn't Jiang He be considered your junior in terms of age? Why are you called Sister Jiang? I feel that Commander Jiang sounds nice."
"Anything is fine, I feel full of energy right now and can fight again right away."
"Forget it, you cultivators of the Ten Thousand Absolutes are really full of energy. I don't want to fight at all right now, I'm exhausted."
The group of cultivators disregarded their image and sat directly on the ground.
Some cultivators would suddenly take out pills to replenish their spiritual energy while sitting, while others would take out a plate of food.
A plate of crisp, fresh cabbage...
Is that right, bro?
The stir-fried cabbage with vinegar was served in a special insulated container, and it was still steaming when it was taken out.
The monk opened the food box, and the aroma of the stir-fried cabbage was fully released. In just about three seconds, the aroma spread.
The cultivators from various academies who were resting on the ground all smelled a rich fragrance. This fragrance was exceptionally unique. Although most of them had never smelled it before, for some reason they found the fragrance captivating, and their mouths watered involuntarily.
"What's that smell? It smells so good!"
"Wow, what are they eating? It's making my mouth water."
After one of the Wanjue Academy cultivators opened the food box containing stir-fried cabbage with vinegar, several other cultivators opened their food boxes as well.
A unique yet addictive aroma lingered in the nostrils of every cultivator.
It was just a food box, but they could clearly smell a lot of food.
"Zhong Liyu, what are you eating? It smells delicious."
Sun Quande moved closer to Zhong Liyu.
Zhong Liyu lifted the box, and the cabbage inside was fresh, tender, red, and green. The combination of color and smell made Sun Quande stick his head completely onto the food box, almost sticking his tongue out.
Zhong Liyu grabbed Sun Quande's head and said, "If you want to eat it, find a proxy buyer yourself."
"Personal shopping agent? Could it be the recently popular spiritual food? I heard that most of the alchemists at your Wanjue Academy can refine spiritual food, and they've even put it on a mini-program and in the campus cafeteria."
"Yes, it's spiritual food."
Zhong Liyu picked up a piece of cabbage with her chopsticks and ate it, making Sun Quande's heart itch with envy.
He had only heard the general outline of the Wanjue Academy's open class, and knew that the alchemists at Wanjue Academy were amazing, but he hadn't watched the live broadcast and didn't know what the spiritual food looked like or tasted like.
In Sun Quande's traditional impression of spiritual food, shouldn't spiritual food be made of pure spiritual plants?
He couldn't reconcile the delicious-looking food before him with spiritual food.
These two things are completely unrelated.
Sun Quande asked again, puzzled:
"Is this really spiritual food?"
"Really, how could spiritual food be fake?"
Zhong Liyu took a bite of the cabbage she had been longing for, which she had bought from the black market at several times the original price.
She could never snatch it in this lifetime. For some reason, with the ID "I am a millionaire," Zhong Liyu always felt that her luck was a bit bad. But it's okay, as long as it can be spent, it's not a problem.
The stir-fried cabbage with vinegar was really delicious. Zhong Liyu had already decided to order a thousand portions directly from Jiang He. Instead of letting scalpers make money, it was better to give it to Jiang He and save the middleman from making a profit.
Sun Quande asked a few more people before confirming that the excessively fragrant food was spiritual food.
The spiritual food before him was completely different from his preconceived notions. Watching Zhong Liyu chew on cabbage, Sun Quande was extremely frustrated.
Suddenly, I realized that the cultivators at Wanjue Academy were living a really good life.
Other people's children get to go to university, win first place in competitions, and get to eat spiritual food.
As expected of the Wanju Academy, it successfully caught Sun Quande's attention.
Looking at these cultivators consuming spiritual food, Sun Quande felt a surge of envy.
It's so comfortable in Wanjue! He even wants to retake the college entrance exam and apply to Wanjue Academy.
As Zhong Liyu ate, the vibrations became stronger, and Jiang He's command to gather came from his ear. He quickly put away the food box.
All the cultivators huddled around Jiang He. The intense tremors caused unease, and some of them keenly sensed a powerful demonic aura emanating from her...
In the center of the base, the metal floor was completely torn apart.
A colossal creature appeared within the base, its entire body covered in stones, and even with only half of its body visible, it already occupied half of the base.
"An SS-class giant rock monster... How could this be?"
Zhong Liyu was surprised. The pressure from the dual S-level demonic creature was so great that many cultivators were directly pressed to the ground and unable to move.
Just as Jiang He noticed the S-rank monster, the giant rock monster, it had already revealed half of its body.
After confirming the monster's level, Jiang He quickly issued a retreat order.
A double S-rank giant rock monster—let alone fight it, you'd be lucky to survive.
Upon witnessing the giant stone monster, the cultivators from various academies immediately felt a sense of crisis. S-rank monsters were already difficult to defeat, let alone this SS-rank monster.
Only one thought remained in their minds:
That's escape!
Whether it's talismans, teleportation arrays, or flying on a sword.
We must escape as far as possible!
Let's rewind to an hour earlier:
"Team Leader Lan, this rock monster's shell is just too hard; we can't break it at all."
Lan Gengzhong's eyes were filled with an unyielding sorrow.
Two hours had passed, and they had only managed to inflict minor injuries on the stone monster. If this continued, Lan Geng knew that the stone monster was very likely to enter a berserk state, at which point even an SS+ level monster would be beyond their ability to kill.
Lan Geng intensified his attack, and before the giant stone monster could react, the military formation had already taken effect, with cultivators charging towards the giant stone monster's weak point with their weapons raised.
Once they crush the stone monster's heart, it poses no threat.
As Lan Gengzhong thought this, time passed second by second until a tiny opening appeared on the giant stone monster's body.
Lan Geng's eyes lit up:
"Attack the crevices in the rock below the heart of the giant stone monster with all your might."
As more and more attacks came at the rock monster, the rock monster also realized the danger.
Its tail slammed heavily into the ground, causing an earthquake and raising countless clouds of dust. Amidst the swirling dust, the giant stone monster vanished.
