Chapter 255 - Robbery?
Chapter 255: Robbery?
Somewhere in the planar battlefield.
Boom!
A violent spiritual energy fluctuation spread, followed by the mournful cry of the demon beast.
The huge body of the demon beast fell to the ground with a loud bang, and was immediately split into pieces, as if it was cut by an extremely sharp weapon.
As dust filled the air, Gu Xi’s figure gradually appeared.
Lowering his head to look at the ranking on the jade pendant, Gu Xi shook his head helplessly.
It had already been half a day since the start of the competition.
During this period of time, Gu Xi had been searching for Liu Qingqingand the others while hunting the beasts along the way. At this moment, the points of the Medicine King Valley had already reached 476 points.
Even so, they still had not advanced into the top ten.
On the other hand, the first place was still the Daluo Sect, and their points had already reached 1,260 points!
They were ahead of the Medicine King Valley by nearly three times!
“Where did these people find so many demon beasts?”
Glancing at the points of the Daluo Sect, Gu Xi helplessly put away the jade pendant again.
If this continued, the gap between their points would only grow bigger and bigger, and in the end, there would not even be a chance to make up for it.
At that time, Snowfall Fungus would naturally fall into other people’s hands.
“I still have to work harder!” slowly stretching his waist, Gu Xi muttered.
Even though they had already fought for more than half a day, the sense of urgency brought by the points made Gu Xi not dare to have the slightest thought of resting.
Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated and immediately wanted to continue to set off.
At this moment, the jade pendant suddenly felt warm.
Gu Xi’s advancing figure came to an abrupt halt. He immediately took out the jade pendant again. At this moment, Medicine King Valley’s points had already reached 498 points.
However, he did not hunt any demon beasts, so there was only one reason. It was because one of Liu Qingqing’s group had successfully hunted a demon beast, which increased their points.
From another perspective, this also meant that they were currently safe and had not encountered the people from the Hehuan Sect.
Gu Xi also secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, nothing had happened. Otherwise, he would have felt extremely guilty. After all, he was the one who had provoked the Hehuan Sect. He could not let others bear the consequences.
However, it made sense when he thought about it. Previously, Pei Tai’an had said that the planar battlefield covered a vast area. Who knew where the people from the Hehuan Sect had been teleported to? Perhaps they were at the far end, or perhaps they had already become food for the demon beasts.
With the increase in his points, Gu Xi’s worried heart also relaxed a lot. However, this did not mean that he would not look for his teammates.
Currently, the planar battlefield was filled with all sorts of people. It was better to gather as soon as possible. It would not be easy for him to explain to Wu Nanshan if any of them were missing.
Even Cao Hua… Although Gu Xi did not like him, he would still try his best to let him return to the Medicine King Valley alive due to Wu Nanshan’s favor.
Without further thought, Gu Xi put away the jade pendant and continued on his journey. However, before he could take a few steps, his figure suddenly came to a halt. His eyes gradually narrowed as a cold glint flashed across his eyes.
“Come out.” Gu Xi spoke faintly as his gaze landed on a nearby thicket.
Under his perception, there was an obscure aura there.
“Your perception is pretty good.”
A moment later, the shrub rustled. Immediately, a man walked out from within. The man’s gaze briefly sized up Gu Xi. After which, he grinned and continued, “Since I’ve been discovered, I don’t want to waste any more words with you. Obediently hand over the points, and I will go easy on you.”
Gu Xi raised his eyebrows, and a hint of disdain flashed across his eyes.
It was obvious that this person was scheming against him.
“Close to 500 points, do you want it?” Gu Xi took out the jade pendant and shook it, and a hint of panic flashed across his face.
Looking at the points on the jade pendant, the man’s eyes could not help but light up.
Close to 500 points, which was not much. However, it was already extremely tempting.
If he could successfully take away half of it, then he would have taken a huge step towards the top ten rankings!
“Hand it over peacefully. This is good for everyone.”
Coming in front of Gu Xi, the man smiled and extended his hand.
However, Gu Xi did not obediently hand over the jade pendant as the man had expected. Instead, he flipped his wrist and kept the jade pendant.
“You dare to trick me?!” Seeing this, the man was stunned for a moment before green veins popped out on his face.
Gu Xi chuckled as the spiritual power in his body circulated quietly, “You want me to give it to you just like that? If you want to get points, that will depend on your ability.”
“Very good, very good.” The man nodded his head as surging spiritual power mixed with thick killing intent surged out from his body. “It’s too late for you to hand over the jade pendant now. Not only will you suffer, you might even lose your life!”
“Oh? Then I’d like to see how you’re going to take my life!”
Feeling the overwhelming pressure in front of him, Gu Xi raised her eyebrows and smiled as if nothing had happened. His tone was even more pleasant, completely disregarding the man in front of him.
The man was only at the early stage of the Almighty realm.
Even if Gu Xi’s current strength had not recovered to its peak, it could be said that it was easy and effortless to deal with such a person.
“Then say goodbye to your life!” as if sensing Gu Xi’s disdain, the man roared in anger. His feet suddenly stomped on the ground, and his entire body instantly jumped several feet high. A large, shining saber had appeared in his hand at some unknown time.
The blade was glowing, and it was clearly an extraordinary spirit tool.
Whoosh–
The blade whistled down, heading straight for Gu Xi’s face!
The attack was a killing move, and the man clearly did not intend to let Gu Xi off.
[Ding! Host is being attacked!]
[Attack flaw 6,952]
[Host, would you like to extract it?]
Gu Xi smiled slightly, and slowly spat out a word.
“Yes.”
In the next moment, thousands of specks appeared in Gu Xi’s mind, quickly outlining the man’s current state and all the flaws in his moves.
At this moment, Gu Xi was like a cheater in a game.
At the same time, the man’s attack had already arrived in front of her. Gu Xi could even feel the sharp wind that was coming toward him.
Seeing that he was about to hit her, the man’s face could not help but flash with joy.
In his eyes, Gu Xi was just a person who only knew how to talk big. As for his calmness just now, it was all an act.
“You still dare to talk back when you don’t have the strength. Be more careful in your next life!” the man said.
However, soon after, the blade he swung stopped in mid-air. Even if he used all his strength, the blade in his hand did not listen to his commands at all. He could no longer move half an inch forward!
