Chapter 153: Stone Forest (1)
Pu!
Su Chen spat out a ed his beaten body out of the forest His clean white robe was now stained red with blood, and he was unable to maintain his previously even stride on top of the marsh’s surface These injuries spoke to the difficulty of the battle he had just fought
“dauy too much,” Su Chen said to himself as he walked out
That old tree dey for thousands of years, and its strength was shocking Even though it had no way of ainst ranged targets In the end, even though Su Chen had been victorious, it had coed to claim the tree’s heart for hi was There were too hout the Pri that no one had ever seen before, they could only make up an impromptu na, Su Chen called it the Tree Demon’s Heart as it seemed appropriate As for whether or not it was actually the old tree’s heart, or if there was already so that went by that nae were still unknown, but given that the old tree’s strength was roughly equivalent to that of a level four Light Shaking Realm cultivator, it was obvious that they would all be uncommon
Most importantly, the item itself was rare and difficult to find
Even a piece of dog poop could be worth a lot ofas it was unrivalled across the continent
Su Chen put away the Tree De back on the Silver Moon Shuttle and starting to search for his next target
His next stop was a nearby field, as there was a stone forest here
The reason why Su Chen believed that this stone forest ht also house some unique treasures was because this stone forest had developed in a strange pattern, and it also e for these fluctuations was the easiest way to search for treasures Not every treasure released these Origin Energy ripples, but anything that did so at a high concentration was definitely uncommon
The world was so vast that Su Chen didn’t need to get hung up on trying to uncover all the extremely well-hidden treasures that existed
He already had his hands full gathering the ones that he could easily see
Soon enough, he arrived at the field and found hi above the stone forest
The stone forest had developed on an uneven terrain, and the trees were all of different heights and sizes However, each treebranch eot closer,into stone beasts like wolves, est ones were taller than a hundred feet, while the smallest was only around the size of Su Chen’s palm — it was a crystalline, transparent stone scorpion
The one thing these stone creatures had in coed at Su Chen, yelling angrily,“These annoying guys are here again”
“Kill theh the air
Su Chen retreated To deter style, the roup of Firehawks into the air
He was just probing their strength with these attacks, but the Firehawks slammed into these stone creatures and unexpectedly instantly killed them Even Su Chen was stunned; these creatures were too easy to deal with, weren’t they?
“He killed our comrade!”
“You demon!”
“We must kill it and uphold justice”
As they continued to yell nonsensically, the stone creatures charged at Su Chen with renewed vigor They swung their stone arh the air, their battle style simplistic and primal
When he saw this, Su Chen came to a quick decision and unleashed twoout all the stone creatures
However, just as the stone creatures died, another group of stone creatures arose froed forwards as they howled
Su Chen attacked again, easily destroying this batch of stone creatures without much effort
However, then a third wave of stone creatures charged forward unrelentingly
Su Chen realized that soht
He destroyed one of the stone creatures and as he observed its remains, they actually autonomously rolled back to the stone forest, where it quickly repaired itself back to its original forot back on its feet, and rejoined the battle
