Staying Alive Cautiously in the Celestial Realm and Becoming the Strongest

Chapter 878: Chapter 878: Hunting the Evil Wraith (Part 1)

After releasing the first wooden carved sparrow, Wang Chen released the second, the third…

Each wooden sparrow personally imbued by Wang Chen had an extremely subtle yet stable connection with his Divine Soul, as if extending his consciousness, acting as his ears and eyes.

Wang Chen released a total of five wooden sparrows, which was not the maximum number he could control, but it was the optimal amount.

Behind all the wooden sparrows, there was an invisible thread, one end connected to the body of the wooden sparrows and the other linked to Wang Chen’s Sea of Consciousness, controlled in sync by his divided attention.

Information gathered from different perspectives flowed into his Sea of Consciousness like tiny streams.

Before reaching the Core Formation stage, this information would have definitely burst his head, totally unmanageable; even synchronously controlling a single wooden sparrow was difficult.

Now, Wang Chen handled it with ease.

The five wooden sparrows spread out, not only greatly increasing the search area but also enhancing the efficiency of the search.

Before long, one of the wooden sparrows controlled by Wang Chen detected traces of Demonic Fiends.

It was a small town with several hundred households, nestled among green mountains and waters, surrounded by numerous Spirit Fields and orchards.

However, this place that seemed like a utopian paradise had turned into a living hell!

The town was in shambles; many houses had been flattened, and numerous places were still burning, clearly having just experienced a fierce battle.

Charred corpses and severed limbs were visible everywhere on the ground.

Evil Beasts roamed the streets and ruins, seeking any possible survivors, intermittently issuing deep howls as if celebrating this massacre.

Although Wang Chen had no connection to this town and knew none of its people, the sight evoked feelings of sadness and anger within him.

Damn Evil Wraiths!

Wang Chen suddenly stepped forward, his figure instantly disappearing from the spot.

The next moment, he appeared ten miles away!

After cultivating “Wanli Free” to the Minor Achievement tier, Wang Chen’s stance on this spell greatly shortened the time needed to gather energy, immensely increased the teleportation distance, and significantly enhanced its practicality.

After pausing for a moment, he took another step.

After three consecutive “Wanli Frees,” Wang Chen appeared at the street entrance of the town!

Such precise positioning relied entirely on the guidance of the aerial wooden sparrow; the combination of both produced excellent results.

His sudden appearance immediately alerted the Evil Beasts that were patrolling and roaming nearby.

Sensing a strong Life Qi, these Evil Beasts became excited and roared as they charged towards Wang Chen, some even spewing black flames or smoke.

Although most of the Evil Beasts had lost their spiritual intelligence and acted more like wild beasts driven by a killing instinct, they were ferocious, fearless, and exceptionally swift in movement.

In the blink of an eye, over a dozen Evil Beasts had surrounded Wang Chen!

“Suppress!”

Wang Chen raised his palm and pressed down; all the Evil Beasts within thirty steps around him were instantly crushed as if burdened by a mountain, several who had just leapt into the air were slammed hard onto the ground, already unable to move.

“Annihilate!”

Wang Chen shouted again and burst of intense flames suddenly appeared around him.

With a fierce crash!

Evil Beasts, unable to dodge under Wang Chen’s suppression, were hit by these fist-sized flames and instantly burst into flames.

Although they regained their ability to move, the flames cast by Wang Chen were not only extremely hot but stuck to them like bone maggots. No matter how they struggled, the flames grew even larger.

Wang Chen was casting the Fiery Heaven Jue, a Golden Core tier Fire Aspect spell.

He hadn’t been mastering this fire spell for long, and it was his first time using it in actual combat.

The effect was extremely strong.

In the blink of an eye, over a dozen Evil Beasts were reduced to ashes!

[Human Virtue +350], [Human Virtue +280], [Human Virtue +470]…

Wang Chen’s vision was flooded with a flurry of notifications.

Though the tiers of these Evil Beasts were not high, their sheer numbers made the cumulative points quite impressive.

Roar~

The commotion Wang Chen created was significant and immediately alerted the other Evil Beasts in the town.

They gathered from all directions like flies drawn to the scent of blood.

“Thunder Come!”

Wang Chen formed a spell sign with his hands, his shout resonating like thunder.

Nine Heavens Divine Thunder!

The Nine Heavens Divine Thunder, originating from the Ancient Immortal Sect, was acquired by disciples of the West Sea Sect during their exploration of the Nine Dragons Land Palace. It was divided into upper, middle, and lower sections, corresponding to the Purple Mansion, Golden Core, and Nascent Soul realms respectively.

This Thunder Magic was utterly masculine and belonged to the pure Yang Thunder Magic, incomparably powerful in purging Demonic Fiends.

After acquiring the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder from the West Sea Sect, Wang Chen had continued to use it to this day. He had recently switched to the Golden Core tier Dharma Technique, and its power had increased more than tenfold compared to the Purple Mansion!

As he spoke, the spell followed. Thick bolts of lightning as broad as an arm descended from the sky, densely covering a large area around him and obliterating all the oncoming Evil Beasts into dust.

Boom!

Just then, bricks and stones suddenly flew from the ruins of the town ahead, and a massive creature burrowed out from underground.

It was a huge insect, entirely covered in thick Rock Armor!

Its body resembled that of a silkworm, but with extremely unsightly antennae and strikingly black, large pincers.

Wang Chen was startled.

He hadn’t detected the presence of this Evil Insect before; it had obviously been well-hidden and only revealed itself due to the provocation of the falling Nine Heavens Divine Thunder.

Moreover, the aura exuded by the Evil Insect was tremendously powerful, definitely reaching the “Fiend” tier.

Which meant it was at the Golden Core level!

But Wang Chen stood undaunted, formed another spell sign, and summoned more lightning, “Decree!”

A thick bolt of divine thunder suddenly descended from the sky, striking fiercely on the Evil Insect’s back.

Wang Chen had initially targeted its head, but the creature, quick in its perception, sensed the danger ahead of time and abruptly lunged forward, causing the Falling Thunder to miss its exact mark.

Snap!

The Rock Armor covering the Evil Insect’s back fractured into pieces under the thunder’s strike, and countless broken rocks flew chaotically.

This strike, which had concentrated ninety percent of Wang Chen’s True Yuan Mana, split open the insect’s outer armor, penetrating deep into its inner mail.

But it didn’t completely pierce through!

Roar~

The stricken Evil Insect immediately let out a piteous howl, its long body contracting briefly before it opened its mouth and spewed a large glob of earthy yellow venom toward Wang Chen.

Wang Chen was prepared and instantly used “Shrinking Ground into Inches” to flash ten meters away.

The venom splattered on the ground, instantly corroding countless fist-sized holes.

Meanwhile, mud and rocks around it quickly gathered, and in the blink of an eye, the part of its back that had just been destroyed by the lightning was repaired, reconstituting the thick Rock Armor.

The next moment, it extracted the rest of its body from the hole, and its corpulent body suddenly shook.

Wang Chen instantly felt an invisible force sweeping over, as if a weight of thousands of pounds had been placed on him, making it difficult to move.

This was undoubtedly some Innate Divine Ability of the Evil Insect, catching him completely off guard!
