Chapter 238: The Earth Demon Attacks
Before, although the elders had some doubts, they still had some faith in Chen Su's all, he is a disciple that Master Taiwu considers to be excellent.
How bad can it be?
But judging from the reports from the front-line disciples, "Chen Su's" performance was really poor.
When it comes to dealing with monsters, it can’t be said that they are not good enough.
Now it seems more like it is dispensable.
Before, I had thought of various ways to bring "Chen Su" to the Yunyang Sect.
But now it seems unnecessary.
Taoist Taiwu had also seen Chen Su’s martial arts skills before, which were pretty good.
But it is far from the point where the Yunyang Sect needs to spend a lot of effort to obtain it.
“Sect Master, I think what the Fifth Elder said is also right.
We invited him from the Flying Eagle Sect and gave him half a Tianye Fruit.
But such performance is not worthy of us giving Tianye Fruit.
They should be asked to return it, or at most compensated with some cultivation resources.
Anyway, the Tianye Fruit is now in the medicine box, and they can’t get it unless we give them the key to unlock it.”
Zhenren Taiwu, who was sitting on the high seat, frowned.
“If you tell them to return it, will they return it?
Who's going to ask for it? Fourth Elder, are you going?"
Hearing this, Sun Xuerong hesitated for a moment and stood up.
“If no one is willing to go, then I will go.
In their Flying Eagle Sect, no disciple needs the Tianye Fruit right now.
Giving them some other resources is giving them face.”
Taoist Taiwu turned his head and looked at Sun Xuerong. She really did her best for Fu Jianyun.
"Go ahead if you want to, but don't damage the reputation of our Yunyang Sect.
Figure out what to say.
It’s better to wait a few days and see.”
Waving his hand, Master Taiwu didn't want to talk about it any further.
“It’s already February, the weather is gradually getting warmer, and the monster activities in the wilderness will increase again.
The harassment of the earth demons may come at any time. The elders should allocate time and ensure that there are powerful people in the transformation realm on the front line every day starting from the end of February. "
Today, Master Taiwu’s main task is to arrange this matter.
As for the record books sent by the disciples, it was a surprise to him.
However, Chen Su's performance was indeed unexpected by Master Taiwu.
Before leaving, the third elder couldn't help but ask another question.
"Sect Master, should we reassign some tasks for Chen Su?
He has not always been a great advocate of traps, but has always advised others to learn how to make them.
Then let him go to the rear to build some mechanisms, so as not to waste the resources we gave to the Flying Eagle Sect."
Taoist Taiwu turned his head and glanced at the third elder.
"Don't make any changes for now. I'll go talk to him when I have time."
I had some doubts in my heart.
But Master Taiwu still felt something was wrong.
It's only been a few months, more than half a year.
Is the change in ability so big?
Or was it really because I had misjudged it at the beginning?
Su Chen didn't understand the booklet produced by the frontline disciples of Yunyang Sect, nor did he want to understand it.
These people just don't want to affect themselves, so let them do whatever they want.
On the ninth day of the second lunar month, Su Chen finally saw the figure of the earth demon.
This is a gray-brown dog demon, and it doesn't look very big.
By using [Monster Hunter] to improve his eyesight, Su Chen could see it clearly from a very long distance.
There seemed to be quite a few golden monsters moving around it, giving it warnings.
Dog-like earth demons are born with a much more sensitive sense of smell.
To deal with it, some tricks are needed.
In addition, with the help of [Monster Hunter], Su Chen could see its strength.
It is already close to the highest level of earthly demon, and the next step is to become a celestial demon!
Entering the house, his demon body was like flying into the sky.
Rumor has it that in order for monsters to improve themselves, they use the bodies of warriors as medicine.
I had encountered this before in Tiangang City. The golden monster was about to break through and wanted to devour warriors in various ways.
The earth demon in front of him wanted to be promoted, and the warrior it wanted to devour was probably at least at the sixth rank. It was very likely that the target was a warrior of the fifth rank.
The earth demon began to make plans and test.
And Su Chen also began to make plans, a plan against the earth demon.
Before attacking, it will certainly conduct tests on the front line and launch various sneak attacks.
This gives us an idea of the situation of this new line of defense.
While patrolling and seeing traces left by monsters, Su Chen reported some possible dangers.
Just ignore the raids of some small demons or places with relatively solid fortifications.
Su Chen tried his best to create an illusion for the earth monster so that it would gradually become bolder and get closer.
The entire defense line was no longer stable, and noisy noises could often be heard at night.
Su Chen also saw different clues through the traces of these monsters.
These raiding monsters were looking for the location of the Yunyang Sect's leader.
The seemingly trivial and messy attacks were actually intended to see where the hall master stationed at the front line was.
Once given the chance, this earth demon will attack with the most fierce force.
At the Yunyang Sect front, things seemed to become more complicated every day.
It seemed like everyone had to be alert and attentive at all times, with no time to relax.
They were busy without any purpose, but Su Chen saw things more and more clearly.
The southeast side outside the defense line was the location chosen by the earth demon for the invasion.
Its location was not what Su Chen had expected.
Then Su Chen placed some conspicuous obstacles on its attack path.
These obstacles will not affect this earth demon, but will affect other demons that help it in the raid.
A day later, the earth demon indeed changed its location.
The location it has chosen now is the location Su Chen had predicted before.
Various traps and obstacles have been set up on the path.
The twentieth day of the first lunar month.
Su Chen saw the marks left by the monsters outside the defense line. Seeing these, he knew that the monster's attack was coming.
The earth demon has been holding it in for so long that he is getting impatient.
Being on the verge of promotion, this earth demon probably doesn't want to wait any longer.
After confirming this, Su Chen immediately went to inform Ge Yingying and Pang Zhongmin.
Let them cooperate with you to deal with it.
Hearing Su Chen say that he had found the trace of the earth demon, he knew that the earth demon would attack the front line of Yunyang Sect tonight or tomorrow night.
Pang Zhongmin and the others all laughed.
"My fellow brothers and sisters, I am not joking with you.
Please help inform the sect elders.
The earth demons are attacking, and the people at the sect front line can't stop them.
Inform the elders, and ask them to come outside the defense line to cooperate with the response."
After saying that, Su Chen left directly and went to the front line to confirm again.
Seeing Su Chen leave, Pang Zhongmin looked at Ge Yingying.
"Junior sister, do you think he can find the trace of the earth demon?
He also asked us to notify the elders of the sect and cooperate with his plan.
Why do I feel like he's still pretending?
Last time someone went to invite the elders, nothing happened, but they were scolded severely. "
Hearing this, Ge Yingying frowned.
“The fourth elder told me that after we handed in the record book, the sect’s top leaders began to question him.
Chen Su may have heard something and wanted to take the opportunity to show off his abilities.
Otherwise, I've been here for so long but have achieved nothing.
I do believe that he saw the Earth Demon, but he thought too much about ambushing the Earth Demon."
After a pause, Ge Yingying thought about it and seemed to want to be safe.
“Let’s first go to the location that Junior Brother Chen mentioned and look for any traces left by the monster.
In addition, in addition to us, there is also a team of scouting disciples collecting information on the front line.
If neither we nor the team can see that there is a problem, then let him get away with it.
Or, let him go and invite the elders himself.
So that we don’t get scolded.”
