“Oh my god! Mr. Chen is more powerful than all of us here! I have to say he hid it pretty well!” exclaimed Miao Yiyue, shocked.
All these while, he had always thought that Chen Xiaobei was just an outsider with weak cultivation. He never thought that Chen Xiaobei had such powerful force in him.
“This is truly unbelievable… He’s just an outsider! We, the Silver Plume nobles are far older than him… but, out cultivation is weaker than him… This really baffles me…”
Qin Luoshu and Wei Ruilong were equally shocked as well.
“At this age, not even Lu Changwei’s cultivation can be compared to Mr. Chen’s! In other words, Mr. Chen’s cultivation is the most powerful amongst the young men who are below 30 years old!”
Dong Xiaowu had managed to see a bigger picture than the other people.
“I have told you guys earlier than Chen Xiaobei is no ordinary person! However, there is something weird about his cultivation!” said Wenren Muyue.
“How so?” asked Miao Yiyue.
“130,000 combat power and health belongs to pinnacle phase of Celestial cultivation! If he managed to breakthrough this cultivation, he would achieve Ethereal cultivation! But… Mr. Chen, there’s still a long way to go before he can reach 180,000 combat power…”
“You are actually right about that! If that’s the case, his strength is weaker than the temple guard! There’s nothing he can do by running towards the enemy!”
“True! I think he will be killed by the enemy within seconds! Yiyue! Quickly go and pull him back!!” said Dong Xiaowu.
“We are going as well!” said Qin Luoshu and Wei Ruiling.
“No! Don’t go! Believe in him! He will never disappoint us!” said Wenren Muyue.
“Muyue! We all know that you idolize him. But, he is not powerful enough to defeat the enemy! He will be killed if we don’t go and pull him back!” said Miao Yiyue.
“Don’t go! He didn’t expect to join the battle! If we rush to him without telling him, we will become a burden for him!”
“This…”
All of them found it hard to believe that Wenren Muyue would say something like this. One should know that Wenren Muyue’s current cultivation was early phase of Ethereal cultivation with 180,000 combat power. If she thought that she would turn into a burden for Chen Xiaobei, others would surely be worse off.
“Muyue! I think you are obsessed with that guy!” said Miao Yiyue in a displeased manner.
“You are actually right about that! There’s something magical about him! I’m really interested in him.”
To everyone’s surprise, Wenren Muyue voiced out her inner thoughts.
“Alright. Since Muyue is so sure about it, let’s wait and see how things go!” said Dong Xiaowu.
After that, everyone had their attention focused on Chen Xiaobei.
A few hundred meters from them, the ground was shaking and ashes were being flung up into the sky. There was even a bright Ethereal Force being shot up into the heavens. One could imagine that that the 12 Temple Guardians had already started the fight with the horde of Demonic Beasts. No one dared to get close to them except for Chen Xiaobei.
This was, after all a war for Ethereal cultivated elites. Any people with lower cultivation would be killed almost instantly in this battle. As for Chen Xiaobei, he did not dare top get too close as well. Instead, he found a safe spot to observe the fight. He could see that all 12 Temple Guardians formed a unique battle formation. Though it was just a small-scaled formation, the essence of 12 Astrological Signs were actually engrained in it. Not only was this formation was unpredictable, but it was also good at attack and defense as well.
Rumble…
The moment the 12 Temple Guardians unleashed their attack, all the Demonic Beasts that stood at the front line were being put to ground. As for those Demonic Beasts that had lower cultivation, they were killed before they even realized it. This powerful attack had managed to stop the horde from moving forward. Now, they were just glaring at the 12 Temple Guardians.
“Such a powerful formation! If they managed to eliminate all these Demonic Beasts, Ximen Dingjun would definitely get the first place in this Elite Hunting Competition! Although I now have the Heavenly Dog Biscuit with me, it’s going to be hard for me to feed it to Ximen Dingjun if Elder Meng insists that he wants to give it a try firsMy only hope right now is for the 12 Temple Guardians to defeat all those Demonic Beasts! With that, I will have a higher chance get first place in this Elite Hunting Competition! And this is the safest way for me to get the reward as well!”
The reward for the first place in this Elite Hunting Competition had everything to do with curing Wenren Muyue’s illness. That was why Chen Xiaobei wanted to lower the risks as much as possible.
“Hahaha! Is this the Demonic Beast Horde?! I thought it was going to be really impressive! Truth is, they are just garbage! Brothers! Keep up the good work! I believe that we can eliminate all of them within ten minutes! Ninth Young Lord will reward us abundantly once we deliver the good news to him!” said the head of the Temple Guardian in an excited manner.
“Kill! Kill! Kill! In the name of the temple, let’s slaughter them!”
Suddenly, all the Temple Guardians were filled with excitement. Clearly, they had a lot of experience when it came to dealing with Demonic Beasts. Usually, the most powerful Demonic Beasts would be placed at the front line.
However!
All those Demonic Beasts that stood at the frontline were rendered defenseless when the Temple Guardians attacked them. That was why the Temple Guards thought that this Demonic Beasts Horde was nothing to them.
Buzz…
All 12 of them stood together again, preparing to unleash a 300,000 combat-power attack.
“Kill!”
A giant and golden trident was formed!
It launched into the sky and fell on the Demonic Beast Horde with lighting speed. Seemingly, the force of the trident was going to annihilate all the living beings and shatter them to the ground!
“Eh?”
“Something is off… All these Demonic Beasts are not as weak as they thought they were… I think all these 12 guardians are about to be killed by them!” said Chen Xiaobei, obviously shocked.
