Chapter 346: The Meat of Eighth-Rank Illusion Beasts is Delicious
“Well, alright, we won’t go for now.”
Chu Xin tilted her little head, thought for a while, nodded, and then turned to look at the eighth-rank illusion beasts at the edge of the abyss, muttering, “Then let’s grill these eighth-rank illusion beasts first. Little Brother, let’s do it together.”
“Okay.”
Chu Chen nodded, then summoned his eight Battle Bodies, and together with Chu Xin and her eight Battle Bodies, charged towards the group of eighth-rank illusion beasts.
Ye Hongxue had just breathed a sigh of relief, but when she saw this, her heart tightened again.
Although the illusions of eighth-rank illusion beasts were far inferior to those of ninth-rank illusion beasts, she wasn’t sure if these two brats could withstand them.
“Meat, it’s all meat.”
Chu Xin was excited, her small, fair hands waving repeatedly, sending out terrifying sword qi that pierced through the throats of the illusion beasts.
As future grilled meat, naturally, one shouldn’t damage the texture of the meat itself, as that would make it taste better when grilled. Therefore, attacking the throat was the best choice, although it would result in the loss of a lot of blood.
Roar!
The eighth-rank illusion beasts were startled and surrounded the eighteen brats.
Their eyes flashed with strange light, and some had claws or tails that also flashed with strange light.
These lights were the manifestations of their illusionary Divine Abilities.
When the light flashed, even Ye Hongxue, who was watching the projection from inside the God Coffin, felt dizzy and almost fell into the illusion.
“Such powerful illusions.”
Ye Hongxue was shocked, quickly closing her eyes, not daring to look.
“So scary.”
The two-headed piglet also covered its eyes with its two dragon claws, not daring to look.
But even so, they still felt uncomfortable.
“The illusions of eighth-rank illusion beasts can directly affect Saintly Sense?”
Ye Hongxue was even more shocked. Generally, as long as one closed their eyes, they wouldn’t be affected by the illusions of illusion beasts. For powerful cultivators, even with their eyes closed, they could still observe and fight using their spiritual sense.
The main reason why cultivators dared not enter the Illusion God Mountain Range was the omnipresent Illusion God Power.
The Illusion God Power directly penetrated the cultivator’s body, entered the soul, and forcibly pulled the cultivator into an illusion.
As for the illusions of these illusion beasts, cultivators could close their eyes and fight them.
But the illusions of these eighth-rank illusion beasts could already affect the cultivator’s spiritual sense. Even if they fought with their eyes closed, they would still be affected.
“If we were outside the God Coffin, these Blood Demon Masks definitely wouldn’t be able to withstand the illusions of eighth-rank demon beasts, nor could they withstand the Illusion God Power here.” Ye Hongxue felt fortunate, but at the same time, hearing the screams of the illusion beasts outside, she was extremely shocked.
She had no idea what kind of constitution these two brats had. They could actually ignore such a dense Illusion God Power and the illusions of eighth-rank illusion beasts. It was simply unbelievable.
“Little Brother, you go grill the meat first, I can handle it here.”
After killing a dozen eighth-rank illusion beasts, Chu Xin’s tender voice rang out.
“Okay, Big Sister.”
Chu Chen left half of his Battle Bodies to continue killing illusion beasts with his sister, and took the other half of his Battle Bodies to collect the corpses of the illusion beasts and return to the God Coffin. He had four Battle Bodies process the corpses, while he was responsible for grilling the meat.
“Second Older Brother, can I eat the illusion beast cores?”
Suddenly, the two-headed piglet, covering its eyes with its dragon claws, spoke.
“Are these tasty?”
Chu Chen picked up two illusion beast cores that two Battle Bodies had dug out from the heads of two eighth-rank illusion beasts, tossed them to the two-headed piglet, and then picked up one himself to try.
“This is too unpalatable.”
His round eyes were full of disgust. He threw the illusion beast core he had bitten into aside, then looked at the two-headed piglet who was eating with relish, and muttered, “Such an unpalatable thing, what’s so good about it?”
“Second Older Brother, these illusion beast cores are naturally not as delicious as grilled meat, but if I eat them, I might be able to comprehend illusionary Divine Abilities. Then I won’t be afraid of these illusion beasts and can help Big Sister and Second Older Brother kill them.”
◈◈◈
The two-headed piglet said in a tender voice while eating.
“I see, then eat more.”
When Chu Chen heard this, he thought that if the piglet could comprehend illusionary Divine Abilities, it could help them kill ninth-rank illusion beasts in the future, so he gave all the eighth-rank illusion beast cores to the two-headed piglet.
Ye Hongxue, who was watching from the side, couldn’t help but twitch her eyes. These were eighth-rank illusion beast cores, rare treasures that were hard to come by in the entire Nine Provinces, yet this brat threw them to a pig like trash.
“Um, Ai Kaorou, can you give one or two to Auntie Ye?”
Ye Hongxue forced a smile and asked.
“Sure.”
Chu Chen nodded, handed Ye Hongxue two illusion beast cores, and asked doubtfully, “Auntie Ye, are you going to eat these stones to comprehend illusionary Divine Abilities too?”
Ye Hongxue shook her head and smiled, “I don’t have that ability, but I can take them back and have someone refine them into a couple of decent illusionary magical artifacts.”
“They can be used to refine treasures?”
When Chu Chen heard this, his eyes immediately lit up, and his chubby little hand waved, taking back half of the eighth-rank illusion beast cores in front of the two-headed piglet.
The two-headed piglet was on the verge of tears. How could he take back something he had already given away?
Chu Chen cut the processed eighth-rank illusion beast corpses into pieces and placed them on the grill to roast. After they were cooked, he called Chu Xin’s true body back to eat, while Chu Xin’s Battle Bodies continued to kill the eighth-rank illusion beasts.
Perhaps sensing the threat, eighth-rank illusion beasts continued to emerge from the Illusion God Abyss, attacking Chu Xin and Chu Chen’s Battle Bodies.
Unfortunately, without the support of their illusionary Divine Abilities, the eighth-rank illusion beasts were only equivalent to seventh-rank demon beasts in combat power, and were no match for the Battle Bodies. No matter how many eighth-rank illusion beasts came, they were just delivering ingredients to the siblings.
While eating the grilled meat, Chu Xin suddenly asked, “Auntie Ye, has Auntie Long come back?”
Ye Hongxue took a bite of the grilled meat, rolled her eyes, and said with a wry smile, “Now you remember your Auntie Long? She must have come back, but the mark I left for her didn’t lead here. After all, this place is full of eighth-rank illusion beasts, and the Blood Demon Mask she’s wearing can’t withstand the illusions of the illusion beasts here, nor can it withstand the Illusion God Power here.”
“I see, then I’ll go get her.”
While eating the grilled meat, Chu Xin controlled the God Coffin to fly back. In the area of the seventh-rank illusion beasts, she saw Long Yufei, who was fighting the illusion beasts with her eyes closed.
Boom!
The God Coffin directly crashed over, crushing the seventh-rank illusion beasts. Then Chu Xin opened the God Coffin, collected the corpses of the seventh-rank illusion beasts, and shouted, “Auntie Long, come in quickly.”
Long Yufei leaped and jumped into the God Coffin. Looking at Chu Xin, who was happily munching on grilled meat, she asked, “Didn’t I tell you not to run around?”
Chu Xin blinked her round eyes and said innocently, “Auntie Long, we didn’t run around. Haven’t we been staying in the Illusion God Mountain Range?”
Long Yufei was momentarily speechless. Was this the same as not running around?
“Auntie Long, do you want some grilled meat? It’s delicious.”
Chu Chen picked up a piece of freshly grilled illusion beast meat and handed it over.
“Don’t run around next time.”
Long Yufei gave a reminder, then took the grilled meat and started eating. As soon as she took a bite, her eyes lit up, and she exclaimed in surprise, “Huh? This illusion beast meat is much more delicious than before.”
“Of course, this is the meat of an eighth-rank illusion beast.”
Chu Xin said with a grin.
“Eighth-rank illusion beast?”
Long Yufei paused, her face full of shock as she turned to look at Ye Hongxue, wanting to confirm the truth.
After seeing Ye Hongxue nod, she looked down at the grilled meat in her hand and muttered, “The meat of an eighth-rank illusion beast, then I must eat more.”
