No hope for eternal life

Chapter 152 Self-Destruction of the Golden Pill

After listening to the competition rules, Mu Changsheng couldn't help but think in his heart: "This selection rule is quite special. On the one hand, it requires everyone to perform their best, while at the same time preventing someone from deliberately concealing their strength. It's really painstaking."

Feng Ze continued, "Before the competition, you need to hand in all the life-saving items given to you by your family elders. They are also not allowed to be used in the Six Nations Trial. I will keep them for you until the end of the trial. If you accidentally die under the claws of a monster, you can only blame yourself for your lack of ability."

Then, Feng Ze looked at everyone and said calmly: "Take out your storage bags one by one, and I will check them myself."

Upon hearing this, Mu Changsheng immediately put the Qingshen, which he had always kept close to him, into his storage bag.

After everyone took out their storage bags, Feng Ze raised his hand and sucked all the storage bags into the air. Then, with a move of his spiritual sense, he checked every storage bag in a moment and took out all the illegal items.

Afterwards, Feng Ze used his spiritual sense to scan everyone again, making sure that no one had anything illegal on them, and then he returned all the storage bags to their original owners.

Mu Changsheng took the storage bag and checked it, and sure enough, the Qingshen Talisman and the Shenxiao Talisman were missing.

Finally, Feng Ze announced: "The screening competition begins now. Remember, you only have three hours."

Upon hearing this, everyone scattered and hunted the monster.

Mu Changsheng was looking for monsters while observing the Shenfeng Cave, which looked like a valley. This was also the first time that Mu Changsheng entered the cave.

The so-called cave heaven is similar to a storage bag, a mustard seed can contain Mount Sumeru, but the difference is that the space of a storage bag is far smaller than that of a cave heaven, and the cave heaven can also be used for people to enter and exit for cultivation, etc.

Legend has it that a cave-heaven can only be opened up by a strong person above the eighth level, so owning a cave-heaven is also a symbol of strength and foundation.

Soon, Mu Changsheng discovered a python monster. He did not choose to attack it at close range, but instead threw out a dragon flame talisman to test it.

Mu Changsheng is also showing off himself, and talismans are one of his important means.

As for the python monster, when it saw the fire dragon transformed from the Dragon Flame Talisman attacking it, it was so scared that it immediately turned around and ran away.

"It wants to run. It seems that the cultivation of this monster is not that good." Mu Changsheng had an idea in his mind and immediately activated two Fiery Sun Talismans to block the python monster.

The attack of the Fiery Sun Talisman was just like its name. The two Fiery Sun Talismans turned into two dazzling little suns. Under Mu Changsheng's control, they attacked from both sides. The python monster had no way to escape and was burned into a piece of charcoal by the two Fiery Suns.

Mu Changsheng found the demon pill of the python demon beast from the coke. Looking at the demon pill carefully, Mu Changsheng saw a mysterious pattern and also identified the specific cultivation level of the python demon beast: "One pill pattern, middle stage of golden pill."

No matter it is the human race's golden elixir or the demon beast's golden elixir, the realm is divided by the elixir patterns. An early stage golden elixir like Mu Changsheng has no elixir patterns for the time being, a middle stage golden elixir has one elixir pattern, a late stage golden elixir has two elixir patterns, and a peak golden elixir has three elixir patterns. Each elixir pattern represents the purity and power of the golden elixir's magic power.

Afterwards, within a cup of tea, Mu Changsheng saw a black wolf monster from afar.

This time, Mu Changsheng did not choose to use talismans such as the Fiery Sun Talisman, but instead approached carefully and stealthily. He had already demonstrated his talisman skills, and next was the time to show his body refining skills.

However, no matter how careful Mu Changsheng was, he was still discovered by the black wolf monster. This was because monsters, like human cultivators, also possessed spiritual awareness and could explore their surroundings at any time. Especially in this cave, these monsters were like frightened birds, and none of them dared to relax. They were always emitting spiritual awareness to guard against the enemy.

After Mu Changsheng realized that he had been discovered, he immediately threw out a true fist seal to attack the black wolf monster. At the same time, he used a magic talisman to speed up and rush towards the black wolf monster to prevent it from escaping.

To Mu Changsheng's surprise, the black wolf monster not only did not run away, but rushed towards Mu Changsheng with great ferocity. It didn't even dodge when facing Mu Changsheng's fist attack, and broke Mu Changsheng's fist with one claw.

"What a strong cultivation level, at least in the late Jindan stage." Mu Changsheng analyzed quickly in his mind. One should know that it is almost impossible for wild monsters to form a ninth-grade golden elixir that can easily crush one's attack. Even a monster in the middle Jindan stage may not be able to do it.

As Mu Changsheng was rushing towards the black wolf monster and thinking about how to deal with it, he suddenly sensed an extremely terrifying and violent wave from the black wolf monster.

"Not good." Mu Changsheng's eyes widened instantly, as if he had thought of something. He quickly turned around and ran away quickly, madly getting away from the black wolf monster.

At this moment, the distance between Mu Changsheng and the black wolf monster was less than thirty feet, and the figure of the black wolf monster had turned into a huge fireball in the air. The fireball instantly spread in all directions, and its spreading speed had far exceeded the speed of Mu Changsheng's escape.

As a result, Mu Changsheng was quickly drawn into the fireball. At the same time, a violent explosion was occurring inside the fireball.

Mu Changsheng, trapped in the fireball, endured the continuous explosions coming from behind him while desperately trying to escape.

In the end, Mu Changsheng quickly escaped from the range of the fireball under the push of the explosion, and the fireball finally stopped expanding.

At this time, Mu Changsheng walked through the fireball. Although he was covered in dust and looked very embarrassed, thanks to his strong body, he only suffered minor injuries.

Mu Changsheng looked back at the violently exploding fireball, still with lingering fear: "I didn't expect that wolf demon to be so decisive and choose to self-destruct the golden elixir right at the start."

Self-destruction of the golden elixir is also a unique method of the golden elixir cultivators, and it can even be said to be the strongest method of every golden elixir cultivator. Generally, when a golden elixir cultivator uses the golden elixir, at most he draws out a part of the elixir's energy and mana, while self-destruction of the golden elixir detonates all of the golden elixir's mana, and its power can be imagined.

The power of a self-destructing golden elixir is probably more than ten times stronger than any spell cast by a cultivator of the same realm. Of course, once the golden elixir detonates, the first to die is the cultivator himself, so no one will use this trick until the last moment.

Mu Changsheng just judged that the black wolf monster had reached the late Jindan stage. With the power of its self-explosion, the force of its attack just now was probably close to that of a Yuanying stage cultivator.

Fortunately, Mu Changsheng realized something was wrong in time and escaped in advance, only suffering a slight impact from the golden elixir's self-detonation. Otherwise, if he had been hit by the self-detonation, his life would have been in danger. After all, Mu Changsheng no longer had the Qingshen Talisman to protect him.

Thinking back to the time when the black wolf monster saw him, it did not retreat but advanced instead. This was a sign of things to come. This made Mu Changsheng secretly alert: "The monsters here are not stupid. They know they are destined to be hunted, so they will fight desperately. I must be careful next time. Fortunately, the self-destruction of the golden elixir is not completed instantly. It takes some time to detonate, so I can detect it in advance and escape."

Afterwards, Mu Changsheng did not dare to stay and continued to look for the monster. He had just been deceived by the black wolf monster, and his evaluation in Fengze's heart might have dropped. He must restore his evaluation next.

Soon, Mu Changsheng found another giant lizard monster. It seemed that there were quite a few monsters in this valley.

Mu Changsheng approached carefully this time. When he saw the giant lizard flee in panic after discovering it, he knew that this monster still had the will to survive. At least it would not self-destruct its golden elixir as soon as it approached like the black wolf monster just now.

So, Mu Changsheng threw out two Fire Talismans to intercept while chasing after the giant lizard monster. He still wanted to use body refining methods to deal with this monster.
