Chapter 786: 786

　　When he left the barrier of light, the first thing he saw was the Hidden Ground Gold Spider King . It immediately raised its guard and glared at Long Chen .

　　Long Chen once more took out his credentials . The dragon scale was his credentials that said he could pa.s.s .

　　As expected, the spider king immediately tensed and retreated . It was too afraid of the dragon scale .

　　Long Chen laughed mischievously . This protective talisman felt too amazing . He slowly went around the spider king . When he reached the tunnel, he found that the strange energy that had prevented him from going back had disappeared . In other words, he could return .

　　In truth, Long Chen didn’t know that as soon as he had entered the place with the final reward, the formations present had acknowledged it as a pa.s.s . However, normally, those who pa.s.sed had either killed the defending Magical Beast or gone through other mechanisms . There definitely hadn’t been anyone who had pa.s.sed like he had .

　　He carefully walked out . Once he was about to reach the exit, he suddenly heard voices and stopped .

　　“As expected of lord Xue You! You actually managed to pa.s.s the high level trial and bring back high grade Divine Mortal Molting Elixir!” praised a Corrupt expert .

　　“It’s just regretful that there wasn’t too much of it . The rest of it flowed underground . But at least I almost got a thousand drops . That harvest really is great . ” Xue You’s voice floated out .

　　“A thousand drops? That counts as a great harvest? Can your thousand drops compare to my hundred barrels?” Long Chen sneered inside . But his sneer also contained envy . He didn’t know that what he had was peak grade Divine Mortal Molting Elixir .

　　“Did you run into any dangers inside?”

　　“It really was dangerous . There was an early seventh rank Magical Beast hiding inside, a Blood Thirst Wolf . It was restricted by my magical arts, but I still suffered a slight injury before cutting it down,” said Xue You .

　　Long Chen was startled . As expected, Xue You was extremely powerful . That Blood Thirst Wolf was also an ancient breed that was extremely powerful . It just hadn’t reached the level of the Hidden Ground Gold Spider King or the Redeye Sacred Blood Phoenix .

　　However, to be able to kill it in exchange for just a slight injury was extremely impressive .

　　“What about you?” asked Xue You .

　　“Only seven people managed to return from over ten people . Some people came in later and entered the middle grade trial, but none of them returned alive . ”

　　“That’s fine . Life and death are up to fate . If they didn’t survive, that just means their lives weren’t hardy enough,” said Xue You .

　　“That Long Chen entered the peak trial cave . He should have long since died . What should we do?”

　　Long Chen’s eyes enlarged . Only now did he realize he had entered the peak trial cave . No wonder there had been a peak seventh rank Magical Beast waiting for him .

　　Thinking of his luck, he had an urge to curse the heavens . But then thinking about it, he couldn’t be mad . If he hadn’t entered that trial of absolute death, how could he have obtained that much Divine Mortal Molting Elixir?

　　“We can all rest for a bit . Protect me while I try out the high grade Divine Mortal Molting Elixir . I want to see if I can break through the barrier and reach the fourth rank . Hmph, if I could become a rank four Celestial, the Eastern Wasteland’s Righteous path will be turned into a river of blood,” said Xue You grandly . Then the sound of a bottle opening rang out .

　　Long Chen wasn’t able to see anything, and he also didn’t dare to use his divine sense . But he knew this b.a.s.t.a.r.d should be drinking the Divine Mortal Molting Elixir .

　　Long Chen wasn’t a Celestial, and so he hadn’t realized that it was so helpful to Celestials . But hearing that Xue You wanted to use it to advance to the fourth rank, he jumped .

　　“Alright, let me help you . ”

　　Long Chen smiled coldly . Even in his current state, he definitely couldn’t allow him to do as he pleased . That wasn’t his style .

　　This was the most sullen he had ever felt . This curse made Long Chen feel like he was impotent . It was like he had the energy but not the means . He clearly thirsted for a battle, but couldn’t .

　　Now seeing Xue You want to break through here, if Long Chen didn’t give him a little gift, would he still be Long Chen?

　　Long Chen turned back . When he reached the fork, he actually realized he had forgotten which path he had gone into . He had to rely on scent to find his original path . He quickly found the Hidden Ground Gold Spider King .

　　“Brother, let’s go . Your big bro will bring you for a stroll!”

　　Long Chen took out the dragon scale and began to walk toward the spider king . The spider king was a bit confused to see Long Chen come and go like this .

　　Having been isolated here for so long, its intelligence couldn’t possibly be much higher than the other spiders . But that fear toward the dragon scale was something instinctual from its very core .

　　Long Chen began to urge it toward the exit . It retreated in that direction, and it also raised its two front legs, taking on an attacking posture .

　　But Long Chen ignored that . Such a low intelligent Magical Beast would immediately attack if it really meant it . For it to take on an attacking posture just meant it was afraid and wanted to intimidate him .

　　At this time, Long Chen stopped moving . If you got too close, a Magical Beast would think you were launching an attack . It would definitely attack him then, and Long Chen didn’t want that .

　　As expected, when Long Chen stopped moving, the spider began to retreat . Long Chen slowly advanced . As a result, it slowly retreated out of the exit . It was just that the process was extremely slow .

　　“Alright, guard me . I’ll begin refining the Divine Mortal Molting Elixir,” said Xue You solemnly .

　　“Yes, don’t worry . ” Currently, the only ones in that large room were the seven rank two Celestials and Xue You . There were also two others hidden by the entrance .

　　Their mission from the very start had been to guard this place . If anyone entered, they would immediately kill them .

　　Xue You nodded . With seven rank two Celestials here and two rank two Celestials guarding the entrance, there definitely wouldn’t be anyone to disturb him .

　　Xue You consumed half of the high grade Divine Mortal Molting Elixir he had obtained . Maintaining a hand seal, he was just about to enter a meditative state when the sound of movements came from one of the caves .

　　A three-meter spider retreated out of that cave . It looked as if it had been made of gold .

　　“Hidden Ground Gold Spider? It’s actually so small . ”

　　One of the rank two Celestials directly unsheathed their sword, and Sword Qi slashed at the spider .

　　This attack was extremely powerful . It could one-shot ordinary Celestials . But when it landed on the spider’s body, it didn’t even leave a mark .

　　Of course, this was the spider king that Long Chen had forced out . Its attention had been entirely focused on the dragon scale, and so it actually hadn’t noticed them yet .

　　But now that someone attacked it, it immediately went crazy . After being forced back by Long Chen repeatedly, it had long since reached its limit . However, it had always been too afraid of the dragon scale to attack .

　　When that person saw that his attack hadn’t caused any damage to the spider, he was appalled .

　　BOOM!

　　The three-meter spider king’s body suddenly grew a thousand times . It was like a golden mountain, and one of its huge legs stabbed toward them .

　　“What?!” Even Xue You’s expression changed . Now that it had grown, it immediately released the aura of a peak seventh rank Magical Beast .

　　In the cave, it had shrunk because it hadn’t had enough room . Only once a Magical Beast had reached the peak of the seventh rank could it control the size of its body . Now, it no longer had any more misgivings . It would slaughter all these people that had angered it .

　　“Retreat!” shouted Xue You . They all rushed away, but one fellow was a bit too slow . There was no way for him to dodge, and with a roar, his runes erupted around him . He raised his weapon to block .

　　BOOM!

　　That powerful rank two Celestial was killed in one blow . Furthermore, the spider leg continued forward, piercing a large hole in the wall .

　　“How terrifying!” Long Chen was hiding within the cave as he watched . The spider king had finally released its true power .

　　A rank two Celestial was like an ant in front of it . Seeing them fleeing in such a panic was truly satisfying .

　　“Tch, Xue You, didn’t you want to bully me while I was cursed? And you still had to act like such a poser, even more of a poser than me . Then, you shamelessly used power to suppress me . Now you should know what it feels like to be suppressed . ”

　　Long Chen felt incredibly refreshed, even more refreshed than before . But although Xue You was startled, he was still a peak expert . He immediately saw through the spider king’s power . The only thing he couldn’t figure out was why it had appeared here .

　　“All of you get back! Don’t fight it head-on!”

　　Xue You shouted, having the others retreat . He had already realized that other than him, no one else could even block a single attack from it . They would all die if this continued . However, before they could retreat, a huge net fell over their heads .

　　That was naturally the spider king’s web . It was incredibly quick and came without any warning . Furthermore, its scope was too great . Even Xue You was caught by it .

　　“Not good!” Xue You’s expression suddenly changed . He was shocked to find that this web had a poisonous liquid dripping off it .

　　He hastily formed a hand seal, and a ray of light shot out of his third eye . It pierced a hole through the web, and a pair of wings appeared on his back . He shot out of the opening .

　　“AH”!

　　Miserable screams rang out behind . When Xue You looked back, his expression completely changed .
