Chapter 27: Challenging Myself

  Long Song Spiritual Power Scan (After surviving a day of catastrophe, there is usually a certain amount of spiritual power to explore the surrounding environment. However, this spiritual power is very consuming and the exploration range is limited, so it cannot be used for long). There are 10 Qi Infant Demons, 100 Qi Dan Demons, and 1,000 Qi Zhe Demons.

  Now the air is filled with monsters rushing forward, 1,000 of them, not enough for Long Song and his party to kill, although they are only three people, but their combat power is not ordinary.

  Long Song's earth attribute defense - Earth Block Defense, as long as the monster hits it, either dead or injured. Then Long Song casts fire attribute Dou Qi - Fire Seed Explosion, every time he hits a monster, one becomes two! Long Song alone killed 500 monsters.

  Among them, three hundred were killed by Jin Yu with a low-grade golden bow, and Rose, who had relatively low strength, also killed two hundred.

  It took only twenty minutes to get rid of these 1,000, and Long Di was still in his tribulation, while Long Ge and the others had to continue killing.

  The Qi Dan monsters started rushing over at this time, and the Qi Dan level monsters were not of the same level. Some were Qi Dan first-level, second-level, third-level, these monsters came over and were killed by Jin Zhi and Mei Gui. The Qi Dan fourth-level, fifth-level, sixth-level required two arrows to kill, while the seventh-level, eighth-level, ninth-level required more than ten arrows to kill, meaning they couldn't be killed, only injured.

  Long Song didn't care about his level at all. With his fourth-level aura, even if he conserved his strength, he could easily kill these magical beasts.

  In just two minutes, the Qi Dan level magical beasts were slaughtered. The Qi Dan magical beasts were fast and rushed up quickly, so Long Yue and the others killed them quickly as well, so it didn't take long.

  After killing all the Qi Dan level monsters, the Qi Ying level monsters couldn't bear it anymore and charged forward.

  The beast is of the air infant level, with high defense and speed. The bows and arrows of Jin Yu and Mei can only injure those beasts, while even higher-level ones cannot be injured.

  A scorpion of the rank of Qiying rushed over and slid under Long Ge's feet.

  Long Ge leapt up on his horse, a knife chopped onto the scorpion's back, "Hiss!" Sparks splashed everywhere. The air-rending magical beast was indeed sturdy and didn't show any signs of severe injury despite Long Ge not displaying his fire-attribute battle spirit!

  At the same time, three gas infant-level magic beasts began to attack Longdi, while four gas infant-level magic beasts attacked Jinyue and Mei, and the remaining three surrounded Longge.

  "Shall we make our move?" a hidden figure in the sky asked.

  "For the time being, I don't think it's necessary. These big families must have their own ways of protecting themselves," said another hidden figure. "We put them in the desert to temper them. If we can't temper them to their limits, they won't be able to develop their potential later on. Except in times of crisis, we just need to keep an eye on them."

  "Got it, teacher!" said the person who started speaking. Teacher? The relationship between students and teachers, are they from the Imperial Academy?

  "Can I kill these few Gasping Beast-level magical beasts without showing my bow?" Long Song began to wonder in his heart, "The defense of these magical beasts is really too high, is it because they often live in the desert? Use a bow, anyway, a low-grade golden bow is nothing in the Imperial City!"

  After thinking for a moment, Long Song took out a golden bow of inferior quality from the spatial ring and began to shoot at the gas sac monsters.

  Longge's power was already very suppressed at this time, and with the assistance of a low-grade golden bow, the attack's power was truly enormous. Moreover, Longge's white energy could be converted mutually, so his endurance in firing fire attribute explosive flames was extremely impressive.

  Only to see Longge displaying his continuous shooting technique, each arrow carrying a orange-red aura flying into the vital parts of the magic beasts, "Boom! Boom! Boom!" The explosions sent the 10 magic beasts rolling all over the ground!

  Jin Zhen and Mei Gui were shocked by Long Ge's strength, both of them used bows of the same grade, but how come the power was different when used in different people's hands?

  Firstly, Jin Zhi and Mei Gui's gold attribute Dou Qi is only good at breaking defenses, as long as it doesn't hit the vitals, the damage to the magical beast isn't great.

  Secondly, Long Ge's extremely strong predictive ability and experience made him aware of the trajectory that the monster was about to move in, so every arrow he shot would hit a vital spot.

  Finally, Long Song's fire attribute Dou Qi is the strongest damage ability among all Dou Qi, and with the "Speed" attribute on the lower-grade Golden equipment bow, its attack power is extremely massive.

  After Long Song shot out 100 arrows, 9 of the gas-baby-level magic beasts had fallen to the ground, and the remaining one was blown into flying ash by the fire-attribute Dou Qi.

  "It seems we underestimated Long Song this newcomer, but the stronger the better, I'm looking forward to their performance in the next six months!" said the figure hiding in the air.

  "......Jin Zi and Rose, 'Dragon Song', how did you do it?"

  "Hehe, I accidentally broke through to the 9th level of Qi Dan, and with the addition of a low-grade golden bow, I was able to kill them all!" Long Ge said with a smile. For now, it's still too sudden to say that he is a high-level expert at the Infant Level, so let's just wait for a while before saying anything, otherwise his strength will be completely exposed and it won't be beneficial for him.

  "It's impossible for you to be twice as strong as us! And where did you get that bow from? Our bows were only given to us after we begged our fathers many times!" Jin Zi said in doubt, knowing that a low-grade golden bow was worth several million gold coins. How could a poor kid from a small village possibly own one?

  "Hehe, this bow was given to me by a superior person, take a look!" Long Ge handed it over for them to see!

  "Wow, earth attribute magic circle, wind attribute magic circle, metal attribute magic circle, this bow is really great! I reckon it's this bow that makes you so much stronger than us?" Rose said in surprise.

  "It should be!" Long Ge laughed and said, others helped him find a reason for explanation, then he didn't need to explain.

  "What bow?" Long Di had also successfully crossed his tribulation, and a stronger aura than before emanated from him, "Let me take a look!"

  "Have you successfully overcome the tribulation?" Long Ge said, "It's really great, our team's combat power has been enhanced again. It seems that killing a fierce beast of the infant level will be even easier next time."

  "This bow is great!" Longdi looked at the bow, as if thinking of something "Long Ge... Long Ge... Could you be the legendary bandit Ke Xing, alchemy master, with a golden-grade weapon, Long Ge?"

  "Haha!" Long Ge laughed and said "Yes!"

  "Alright! You've been keeping us in suspense for so long!" Jin Zi said with some discontent.

  "When did I deceive you? Didn't you ask me?" Long Ge said with a bitter smile.

  "It seems so too!" Jin Zi thought for a moment and replied.

  "Heh heh, so you're the young man who specializes in killing bandits? You're also the alchemy master who can refine second-grade superior pills?" Rose asked.

  Chattering away, Long Ge was asked non-stop by three little kids, and Long Ge was really annoyed. He had to use a lot of effort to clearly tell his glorious stories. After finishing, the three kids took him as their idol and suggested that he be the captain of this team. The temporary name of the team is "Desert Eagle" (which seems to be the name of a gun in CS!).

  "The Desert Eagle" team spent an hour dealing with the killed magical beast, which was actually just a thousand magic cores. Among them, only ten were valuable, and they were all of the "air infant" level. Since they were all killed by Long Ge, who was also the team leader, he got to keep them all. These magic cores, which contained powerful fire properties, would be very useful for Long Ge's future alchemy and equipment refinement, so he decided to take them.

  After finishing their busy day, the four of them arrived at dusk and hastily set up a tent. Then they took out delicious food and drinks inside the tent to eat.

  Long Song's ring had the most food in it, and Long Song was still very satisfied with the food of the Imperial Capital. So a total of ten cubic meters of food were loaded. Now Long Song took out several exquisitely made fish, then heated them with pure fire-attribute Dou Qi, the effect was even better than a microwave oven. In a moment, the fragrant fish meat was placed in front of the four people.

  Four people chatted and laughed while enjoying delicious food, only starting to discuss their future plans after they were full.

  "On the third day after our arrival, we encountered an attack by 10 A-rank magical beasts and 1100 low-ranking magical beasts. I believe that the number of magical beasts that come with the wind will definitely increase. What should we do next?" Long Ge asked to hear everyone's opinions.

  "I think we should stay here, as there is less danger this way!" Jin Zi said.

  "This way we will become the target of all monsters!" Rose knew that monsters liked to attack fixed targets, if he knew there was something worth bullying, he would not let it go!

  "I think we shouldn't stay here, let's leave tomorrow morning and then we can temper ourselves in the desert," Long Di said.

  "I think so too, being a target is really annoying, I hope to be in control of myself, we need to keep challenging stronger monsters and challenge ourselves!"

  "Agreed!" The other three people said loudly.

  "Alright, I'll go set up camp tonight! You all get some rest, we're setting out early tomorrow morning! Let's take on this endless desert!" Long Ge said.

  "Alright." The other three didn't say anything else and went straight to rest.

  Long Ge stepped out of the tent, gazing at the cold moon in the sky that had remained unchanged for billions of years. Suddenly, his heart surged with a fiery passion reminiscent of Huo Wu's dance, "I will definitely work hard, and even if I have to traverse realms, I will find you!"

  "Thanks!" Long Di suddenly walked out of the tent "If it weren't for you today, I would have been attacked by those monsters."

  "It's nothing, we're on the same team, it's what I should do." Long Ge said with a smile "You'd better get some rest early, or you'll be out of energy tomorrow!"

  "Hehe, okay!" Long Di smiled and said "But before I go back to rest, can I ask you a question?"

  "Ask away!" Long Ge said.

  "Have you reached the Qi Infant stage? How is it that I've reached the Qi Infant stage and yet still feel inferior to you in terms of aura?" Long Di said.

  "Hehe, this is a secret, you'll know later." Long Ge said with a smile, "Tomorrow we'll start facing new challenges, so think more about how to use the Dou Qi on your body!"

  "Alright, I'm really looking forward to tomorrow!" Long Di said.
