Chapter 2037: Chapter 2037 Fighting over Disciples
The elders inside the grand hall were all astonished at this moment. They had never seen this Sea Buckthorn Monster before.
In the past, no disciples had discovered that there was a treasure underground here, so no one would come and provoke this monster for no reason.
Moreover, if it was not for Ye Liuyun using Ghostic Fire to burn it, it would not need to transform. As long as someone dared to enter this sea buckthorn land, they would be attacked by the sea buckthorn.
"Could he have used his divine sense to detect this sea buckthorn monster?" Some elders doubted.
"He didn’t use his divine sense to ascertain, but tested it out instead!" Mao Hongyin said, "You saw that he carefully tested it first this time! His hesitation shows that he also didn’t know what danger was here."
"That’s right! His expression when he saw the sea buckthorn monster was also very shocked!" Elder Kurong added.
Jin Qingsong got excited and stood up, saying to everyone. "He has both Yin and Yang’s strongest fires, he’s a genius alchemist! You all stop arguing with me, let me have him!"
He saw that Ye Liuyun possessed both the Yin and Yang fire, both of which are considered the strongest. Thus, he couldn’t help but wanted Ye Liuyun to be his disciple.
Immediately thereafter, other elders who were also optimistic about Ye Liuyun opposed, "There are many people who have fire attributes, but could they all be able to refine pills? Didn’t you see his rich experience in combat? The two kinds of fire can be equally powerful in battle, why must he refine pills?"
Jin Qingsong has a fiery temper, and immediately started debating with the elder.
"Enough, stop arguing! Let him choose himself when the time comes!" Elder Kurong, annoyed by their bickering, shut them up with a single sentence.
However, they all started pondering how to attract Ye Liuyun to their faction.
On the side of Ye Liuyun, after using his clone to explore the sea buckthorn monster, he was waiting for the alligator beastman who was rushing over whilst using his Golden Phantom Eyes to inspect the entrance of the underground palace.
The entire underground palace was buried deep under the sea buckthorn, the palace gate was sealed by earth. Moreover, the root system of the sea buckthorn spread throughout the vicinity of the palace, making it difficult to get close, let alone opening the main door.
Ye Liuyun asked the Barbarian Bull in the spatial world. Since the Barbarian Bull is an earth attribute beast, perhaps it had a method to open the palace gate or directly damage the palace and make a hole in it.
Ye Liuyun gave Barbaric Bull a detailed description of the situation underground.
Barbaric Bull then asked Ye Liuyun if the palace was a magnified treasure.
"If it’s not a treasure, I could seize the chance to force open the palace’s doors when the sea-buckthorn monsters rally to fight.
If it is a treasure, I might not be able to open it. If the palace is controlled by the spirit of the sea-buckthorn monsters, then it would be even harder to open."
After some thought, Ye Liuyun could only temporarily give up the idea. He had to guard against his opponent and there simply would not be enough time for him to force open the palace and hunt for treasure.
This time, he would let the alligator beastman and the seabuckthorn monster fight to the death. Then he would come back later.
Ye Liuyun estimated that these sea-buckthorn would be able to go head to head with the alligator half-beastman. So, he would need to lend a helping hand to the alligator half-beastman at a crucial moment.
He needed to save the crocodile beastman to handle the eel witch.
The crocodile beastman was also relentless, having just gone through a big battle, it did not rest and instead continued to pursue them.
The avatar’s spiritual awareness discovered its approach and began to attack the souls of the sea-buckthorns again with Netherworld Ghost Flames.
Those sea buckthorns immediately reconverged to resist the clone’s attack.
Suddenly, the clone withdrew the Ghostic Fire, directing the flame towards the oncoming alligator beastman to warn the sea-buckthorn monsters of its arrival.
The sea-buckthorn monsters then saw the mature crocodile beastman. At this point, it let out a roar of anger, warning the crocodile beastman not to approach.
The crocodile beastman seemed to be aware of the difficulty of dealing with the sea-buckthorn monsters and tried to bypass its territory to seize the avatar from the side.
However, the avatar moved with it, circling half around the sea-buckthorn monster. As they ran, he continued firing arrows at the crocodile beastman, deliberately provoking it.
The crocodile beast let out a roar of anger and pursued the clone again, but the clone, too, evaded in the same direction, causing the crocodile beast to cry out in frustration.
Its cries attracted the attention of the sea buckthorn beast. As the clone was no longer attacking it and was shooting arrows at the alligagor beastman, so the sea buckthorn beast focused all its attention on the alligator beastman.
Tha alligator beastman could not hit the clone after turning around and could not bear it any longer. It took a risk and tried to bypass the sea buckthorn beast.
The prickly beast didn’t care about its intentions. To it, the threat posed by the crocodile beast was much greater than that of the clone. Even if it tried to sneak past, the prickling beast would not let it pass through its territory.
Suddenly, a tentacle of the prickly beast stretched out, barring the crocodile beast’s way.
Forced into a corner, the crocodile beast let out a low growl and smashed the tip of the tentacle with a punch.
This made the prickly beast even more certain that it was an enemy. Its entire body shifted in that direction and it swung its tentacles at the crocodile beast.
Going all out to attack, it came to a standstill with the crocodile beast. The crocodile beast also had run out of patience and began fighting the prickly beast directly.
Two monsters of the mid-stage of the eighth tier battling fiercely. Their genuine energy burst forth and the dust billowed. Without his Golden Phantom Eyes, the clone would not have been able to see their moves.
He too was not idle, constantly keeping an eye on the movements of the crocodile beast, always making sure to hide behind the prickly beast, not giving the crocodile beast a chance to ambush him.
At the same time, he was also observing their energy consumption, making sure to guarantee that the crocodile beast would eventually be able to take down the prickly beast.
Before long, less than 20% of the crocodile beast’s vital energy was left.
Just as the clone was about to help, he suddenly noticed that the crocodile beast had abruptly stopped channeling its vital energy and was purely using its physical body to brawl with the prickly beast hand to hand.
The prickly beast also changed its shape, completely enveloping the crocodile beast, and attacked wildly.
But the crocodile beast, with its rough, tough body covered in crocodile scales, didn’t care about its attacks. It grabbed the prickly beast that was wound around itself and tore it apart directly.
The two of them found themselves in a stalemate. The clone noticed that the roots of the Sea-buckthorn monster began to gradually gather and slowly move above the ground.
One could assume that it was rapidly consuming its own energy.
Feeling that the time was about right, the clone shifted its position, preparing for withdrawal.
Inside the grand hall of Xuántiān Sect, the elders observing Ye Liuyun also revealed knowing smiles.
"The only thing in this secret realm that can handle the Half-beast Crocodile is this Sea-buckthorn monster!"
"Haha! After using the alligator beastman, this kid should withdraw now. I bet he will even try to cheat the alligator beastman again later!"
Everyone believed that Ye Liuyun ran here just to let the Sea-buckthorn monster deal with the Half-beast Crocodile, to let the two monsters fight to the death, and then he would strike at the crucial moment, delivering a fatal blow to the Half-beast Crocodile.
However, what Ye Liuyun did next left them puzzled.
This time, the clone surprisingly released both the Ghostic Fire and the Power of Ice, directing all attacks at the sea buckthorn monster. He attacked both its divine sould and physical flesh simultaneously.
