Chapter 126 Shennong Beast Performs Consistently
Given this situation, it was obvious that Li Muyang and his group were also unable to leave.
The police have begun evacuating the crowd and explaining the current situation. Those above the Golden Core stage who are confident in their strength and have the awareness to sacrifice themselves and are willing to stay and help can stay. Those below the Golden Core stage who do not want to leave must leave! If you stay here, no one will take care of you!
Because cultivators below the Golden Core stage can only activate their energy barrier for a short time. They can't withstand the devouring of the black liquid for more than a few seconds before being drained. Most importantly, they can't stay in the air for long periods of time!
In that case, we'll only be assimilated into the enemy! Wouldn't that just cause trouble for our comrades?
This extraordinary power was already difficult for Bai Yuxiu and her group of martial artists to deal with. Li Muyang put them into the spirit beast gourd. The four women didn't say anything, knowing full well that they would be a burden if they stayed outside. They just told Li Muyang to be careful before leaving.
It's such a pity that we encountered this kind of trouble so soon after bringing them here on vacation! Sigh!
As expected! Brother Li's (Young Master's) world is truly fraught with danger! Peril lurks everywhere!
After seeing off the four burdens, Li Muyang and his three roommates exchanged glances. Hmm, Chen Sisi is here too! Don't underestimate her just because she's a girl; she's been in the Golden Core stage for a year longer than the three of them! If you really want to compare, it's her senior protecting the three juniors.
Of course, Li Muyang said he didn't need it!
As for leaving... just kidding!
As the soldier just said, this was a terrorist attack, and all participants during the mission will receive the rewards and benefits according to the highest-level team mission rewards officially issued by the authorities! Even if they sacrifice their lives, they will be martyrs!
Damn it! Young Chinese people work so hard, wasting their childhood! Cultivating this power, isn't it all for the chance to achieve great things? Even sacrificing oneself for the country would be worth it!
Especially when you hear that these terrorists are probably from that wretched island nation next door!
The keyword is triggered instantly, and one moment of bloodline awakening occurs! Blood boils!
Originally, Li Muyang and his four roommates, who were planning to avoid trouble, suddenly stopped in their tracks! Their eyes lit up with excitement!
Even in this modern world of cultivation, the Chinese people have never been less resentful of the small island nation next door!
There were quite a few Golden Core cultivators among the crowd who remained, and even a few elderly men and women who had just been dancing in the square next door, some of whom were several hundred years old! One old man wielded his nine-ringed broadsword with great force!
Judging by the appearance of that sword, it's probably "Demon Slayer"!
The Black Liquid Swamp was blocked by the barrier, but quite a few infected people had appeared outside. Most importantly, they were extremely difficult to kill! Ordinary physical attacks were completely ineffective! Destroying their physical bodies only accelerated their transformation into the unknown black liquid!
Many of the enthusiastic people who stayed behind lacked experience and could only keep destroying, repairing, and destroying...
Some were inexperienced, while others were more careful. With the soldiers' reminders, they began to use energy attacks.
Especially since there was a comic convention over there just now.
Therefore, now you can see Naruto wielding the Rasengan! Tanjiro with his long sword burning with flames! There's even Wu Liuqi with the Demon Blade Thousand Blades! Cao Yanbing with a spirit on his back... Unfortunately, they are all high-quality imitations, not a single one is real.
"...I can hardly tell if this is still reality!" Wang Yifei, who had transformed into a golden weasel, complained.
Is this an anime crossover battle?
Fan Zichen and Chen Sisi, who were standing next to him, nodded in agreement.
"What's so special about this? Come on! Let me see!" Li Muyang laughed loudly, took out the Shennong Ruler, and started acting as a human third wheel!
Instantly, everyone around could feel that they had recovered! Following that feeling, their first reaction was:
Wow! Dude, your cosplay is terrible! Why is Nangong Wentian holding the Shennong Ruler? Isn't that Beiming Xue's equipment?
Li Muyang (；?＿?): Is this even the point?!
Lu Xiaobo, who was controlling the magical artifact and constantly firing lasers, came over and complained, "Old Li, this is so out of place!"
Li Muyang's lips twitched: "What? You look down on my Shennong Beast now?"
Upon hearing this, the Shennong Beast in its hand became displeased! Instantly, its light shone even brighter, and for a moment, even the black liquid creatures dared not approach! Several that were close by let out painful howls and collapsed to the ground, their bodies emitting a vaporous smoke from their scalded bodies!
Everyone present noticed it!
"Wow! Dude! Is that really the Shennong Ruler?" The cosplayer Wu Liuqi's friend exclaimed, leaning over. This thing definitely has an unusual feel to it!
At this moment, a soldier came over and said, "Comrade! Your... uh, Shennong Ruler seems to be able to subdue these creatures?"
Li Muyang blushed with embarrassment: "Uh... I'm not sure either..."
Just then, Shennong Beast transformed back. Under the bewildered and shocked gazes of everyone, it carefully observed the black liquid creature that had been injured by its light, rendered immobile, and was half-dead. Then it turned to Li Muyang and said, "Muyang, I think I've seen this thing before!"
"Really? Is there a way to control it?" Li Muyang perked up immediately upon hearing this. Since he had already reached the Golden Core stage, no one could sever his connection with the Shennong Beast! He might as well use it publicly!
Shennong Beast nodded and said, "Okay, these guys are so strong now because there's a controller nearby who summoned them. I think his name is something like... Instructor of Truth? If nothing unexpected happens, there should also be a source not far away!"
As it spoke, the Shennong Beast looked at the black hole in the barrier not far away and said, "That's the thing!"
The soldier standing nearby was already somewhat convinced! This was all classified information; he only saw it before the operation was carried out, and ordinary people wouldn't have access to it.
However, even if the Shennong Beast directly revealed the information, it was impossible to let the Shennong Beast enter the barrier now. Moreover, he really didn't think that Li Muyang, who only had a Golden Core stage, and this Shennong Beast, which looked like something out of a children's movie, could play any key role.
It wasn't that he looked down on him, but rather that he had a responsibility to protect the safety of the people. Unless absolutely necessary, he couldn't let Li Muyang, who only had the Golden Core stage, take risks, even though he was only at the Golden Core stage himself.
This is the awareness of a people's soldier!
"Don't worry, we already have people dealing with the problem over there! I believe it will be resolved soon!" the soldier said confidently. The others breathed a sigh of relief; the exertion had been quite great, and it was only thanks to Li Muyang's healing earlier that they were on the verge of collapse!
The Shennong Beast glanced at the barrier, said nothing, but sent a thought to Li Muyang: (That barrier won't last much longer. Once it loses its function, the black liquid that has accumulated in the barrier will overflow from the black hole! I won't be able to stop it then! I can only protect myself!)
(What should we do then?) Li Muyang remained quite calm.
The Shennong Beast silently closed its eyes to sense the situation, then opened them again and sent a thought to Li Muyang: (Wait! The one who opened the black hole, and the source of infection for these black liquid creatures... are not within the barrier!)
Li Muyang wasn't too surprised by this. Although the battle inside the barrier looked intense, no one stipulated that the terrorists had to follow the plan and stay inside the barrier!
People aren't stupid. They know there's a problem, yet they still cooperate like this, right? Judging from what just happened, the officials were trapping the cosmopolitan convention, while the black hole in the shopping street could be a terrorist's diversionary tactic, right?
The real mastermind is hiding among the crowd. After the battle on the other side of the barrier ends, when everyone thinks they have won and lowers their guard, wouldn't that be a perfect opportunity to strike again or leave quietly?
(So? Are you making a scene?) Shennong Beast's calm voice came from behind.
Li Muyang smiled slightly: (At a time like this! What do you think? Can we find it?)
(Ha! Who am I?) Shennong Beast snorted and transformed into Shennong Ruler once more. This time, Li Muyang also activated his true form mode! Nangong Wentian's cosplay outfit disappeared instantly, replaced by a turquoise battle robe.
To others, it looked like Li Muyang and the Shennong Beast stared at each other for a while before Li Muyang transformed without saying a word!
"Hiss... Old Li! You've actually unlocked the Golden Core True Body?!" Fan Zichen exclaimed in surprise. The other brothers and senior sisters beside him were also astonished, and even the onlookers were taken aback!
Including the soldier comrade, although he is also a Golden Core cultivator, the Golden Core True Body technique is not something that ordinary people can master. It can be said that this technique symbolizes that Li Muyang will definitely be able to break through to the Nascent Soul realm in the future!
Li Muyang turned his head with a blank look: "Huh? Isn't this thing automatically mastered when you break through to the Golden Core stage? I mastered it directly after breaking through to the Golden Core stage!"
Everyone (???): ...
"Hey?" Li Muyang blinked awkwardly. He was just trying to ease the tension, why were they glaring at him like that?
Staring at you? That's too lenient! Even one of the soldiers admitted to being a little envious! I'm one of the top young talents in the village, and I haven't even mastered the Golden Core Formation yet!
Wang Yifei: "...I'm convinced! I completely believe what Boss Zuo said now! Last time, Old Li, you really weren't serious!"
The combat power of a cultivator who has mastered the Golden Core True Body is completely different from that of a cultivator who has not. The former can only be considered to have stepped into the door of extraordinary combat power, while the latter is a Golden Core cultivator in the true sense!
Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment can be achieved with theoretical knowledge and enough effort. Golden Core can be successfully formed by gaining a general understanding of oneself. But what truly sets the masses apart from the strong is the Golden Core True Body!
Judging from the current situation, none of the enthusiastic citizens who remained have achieved the Golden Core True Body; only a few warriors have. This shows how rare they are!
Now that Li Muyang has suddenly revealed his Golden Core form, it is indeed enough to surprise the onlookers!
Even the black liquid creatures sensed the threat and retreated! They were afraid! Right now, Li Muyang's aura is the most effective counter to them!
