Since then, five of the eight Level 3 demon beasts had died.
Without another word, the Two-Headed Snake turned around and fled.
The Moon-Swallowing Silver Wolf and the Combat Ape, who were attacking Hua Mengyou together, were also shocked.
They did not expect that in just a short while, the situation would be turned against them.
In the blink of an eye, five of the eight Level 3 demon beasts were gone.
How were they supposed to continue fighting?
The Moon-Swallowing Silver Wolf immediately let out a long roar.
Its huge body turned into a shadow and disappeared into the distant sky.
Although the Combat Ape was belligerent by nature, it wasn’t stupid.
If it continued to stay, there would only be one outcome, which was to be killed by the two people in front of it.
Therefore, in the next second, the Combat Ape also leaped, quickly fleeing in the direction of the Moon-Swallowing Silver Wolf.
Jiang Chengxuan wanted to chase after them, but he was afraid that it might be a trap to lure him away.
Therefore, after thinking about it, he suppressed the urge to chase and turned his gaze to the group of low-level demon beasts retreating desperately.
At this moment, a system notification suddenly sounded in his mind.
[Ding.]
[System mission issued. Host, please complete the achievement of killing a thousand demon beasts.]
[Current Progress: o%]
What?
Hearing the system’s notification, Jiang Chengxuan was slightly stunned.
Finally, the mission to kill demon beasts came.
However, from the looks of it, the system did not seem to include the demon beasts he had killed previously.
In that case, he might have to start a massacre.
As he thought about this, Hua Mengyou had already arrived in front of him.
At this moment, her pretty face looked a little pale.
Clearly, she had suffered some injuries in the battle just now.
“Fellow Daoist Hua, how are you? Are you alright?”
Seeing Hua Mengyou come over, Jiang Chengxuan asked with concern.
Hua Mengyou smiled.
“Nothing serious.
It’s all thanks to Fellow Daoist Jiang this time.
If not for you, I’m afraid 1 would have come out alive this time.”
She wasn’t lying.
With her cultivation and strength, she could barely deal with two demon beasts of the same level.
If there were three, it would be very troublesome.
If there were four, it would be life-threatening.
“You’re welcome, Fellow Daoist Hua.”
Jiang Chengxuan smiled and shook his head.
“Since we are companions, we should help each other.
Moreover, with your foundation, I believe you can extricate yourself from danger even without my help.”
The two of them chatted for a while.
In the end, Hua Mengyou looked at Jiang Chengxuan and praised,
“I heard that you and your Dao companion killed a guest elder at the ninth level of the Violet Palace in the Zheng Nation, as well as a few people who wanted to harm you.
At that time, I knew that your strength must be extraordinary.
However, after today, I realized that your strength is far beyond my imagination.”
“Hehe, you flatter me, Fellow Daoist Hua.”
Jiang Chengxuan shook his head humbly.
He didn’t say much to Hua Mengyou on this topic. Instead, he changed the topic.
“Now that you and I are available, why don’t we go to the east gate to help?”
Hearing Jiang Chengxuan’s sueggestion, Hua Mengyou immediately nodded.
“There’s no time to lose. Let’s go now.”
With that, the two of them flew towards the east gate of Ancient Origin City.
However, before this, Jiang Chengxuan did not forget his mission.
He casually took out the Golden Void Sword and slashed at the low-level demon beasts that were rapidly retreating and escaping.
Rumble!
In an instant, the world shook.
Countless low-level demon beasts were turned to dust by Jiang Chengxuan’s slashes.
And his mission progress was also increasing at an incredible speed.
[5%, 18%, 33%, 4i°/o]
In just a few seconds, Jiang Chengxuan’s mission progress went from 0% to 41%.
If not for the fact that he was worried about the battle at the east gate, Jiang Chengxuan could have used this opportunity to complete the mission.
However, he believed at the east gate, after dealing with those Level 3 demon beasts, he still had a chance to complete his system mission.
BOOM!
Just as Jiang Chengxuan and Hua Mengyou arrived at the east gate, the eight Level 3 demon beasts, including the Blade Eagle, that were fighting with Jiang Rendao, Li Fei, Bai Zixuan, and Bai Yuanchen, immediately turned into eight streaks of light and flew towards the depths of the Ancient Origin Mountain Range.
Clearly, they had sensed what had happened at the north gate.
Therefore, as soon as Jiang Chengxuan and Hua Mengyou headed towards the east gate, they left without hesitation.
A look of pity flashed across Jiang Chengxuan’s eyes, but fortunately, there were still many low-level demon beasts.
The Golden Void Sword suddenly erupted with a dazzling light.
A terrifying sword light that was hundreds of feet long swept over the low-level demon beasts who were retreating and escaping.
Boom!
In an instant, hundreds and thousands of low-level demon beasts turned into blood mist and dissipated under Jiang Chengxuan’s sword.
[Ding.]
[Congratulations, host. You have completed the achievement of killing a thousand demon beasts. You have received +1 demon beast-slaying talent and a Deduction Bead.]
[Demon beast-slaying Talent: This talent is an active talent. After activation, it can randomly increase your power by 10% to 30% when facing demon beasts.] This was definitely a rather impressive talent.
Although 10% to 30% did not seem like much, at critical moments, it could be a game-changer.
In addition, the Deduction Bead could also help him complete the content of the second page of the Heavenly Calculation Technique, allowing his cultivation of this technique to enter the next level.
In short, the system reward this time was quite satisfactory.
After all, this mission was just a piece of cake to him.
[Ding.]
Much to his surprise, the system’s voice sounded in Jiang Chengxuan’s mind again.
[System mission issued. Host, please complete the first kill of the Level 4 demon beast.]
What? Kill a Level 4 demon beast?
Jiang Chengxuan was stunned.
A moment ago, he was still thinking that the system mission was a piece of cake.
In the next moment, the system gave him such an impossible mission.
Asking him to kill a Level 4 demon beast was no different from asking him to kill a Golden Core Demon King.
With his current strength and cultivation, he didn’t even know if he could escape from the attack of a Level 4 Demon King, let alone killing it.
The system had really given him a huge headache.
Jiang Chengxuan stopped thinking about the system mission for the time being. Instead, he looked at Jiang Rendao and the other three.
He realized that in the battle just now, the four of them were more or less injured.
Fortunately, they were not particularly serious.
At the same time, Jiang Rendao, Li Fei, Bai Zixuan, and Bai Yuanchen also looked at Jiang Chengxuan and Hua Mengyou.
To be precise, their gazes were on Jiang Chengxuan alone..
