Talisman Emperor
Chapter 1677 – Acting Alone


Everyone was dumbfounded, and then they started laughing.


Yuqiu Jing was trying to make the past into the past, and she was just using the drink as an excuse.


Chen Xi smiled and said as well, “Since you have already said that, then I will accompany you until the end.”


Yuqiu Jing let out a cold snort and said, “Maybe I lost to you in terms of strength, but you have to be careful when it comes to drinking!”


Everyone laughed out loud.


In fact, when they thought about it carefully, there was no deep enmity between Chen Xi and Yuqiu Jing, and at least only a small friction had occurred between the two of them.


Of course, it was mostly due to Yuqiu Jing, and she had already suffered greatly from it. So, it was obviously very reasonable for him to choose this moment to make a pass with Chen Xi first.


After all, no matter if it defeated the combined forces of Yue Ruuo and Jin Qingyang, it blew Di Jun up with a single sword attack, or faced Luo Shaonong, either, all of these incidents had proven that Chen Xi was completely unusual.


When faced with a peerless figure rising like a shooting star, then as long as Yuqiu Jing was not an idiot, she would definitely not choose to continue fighting Chen Xi.


However, it obviously required immense courage and determination to make a proud figure of an ancient clan in the Imperial Region like Yuqiu Jing to surrender.


Yuqiu Jing's actions caused Chen Xi to have a slightly higher opinion of her.


Despite all this, no matter if it was Le Wuhen, Shentu Yanran, or all the other cultivators in their group, they were all very happy to witness such a scene.


……


This moment passed in the blink of an eye, and then everyone paid attention to Zhuanyu Shui.


At this moment, Zhuanyu Shui had stood up and changed into a new set of clean clothes. Other than his pale and translucent face, it was simply impossible for anyone else to know that he was in a hopeless situation, severely injured, and on the verge of death just a moment ago.


This was the merit of cultivating in the School of Fiendgod Body Refinement. As long as one's consciousness remained, then one could recover at an extremely fast speed, causing the survival of the School of Fiendgod Body Refinement to be unequaled.


However, his injuries might not be possible to recover completely within a short period of time.


After all, the injuries he had sustained during the battle with Di Jun earlier were really too heavy, and if it was any other cultivator, that cultivator might have died long ago.


Le Wuhen asked. “What really happened?”


Le Wuhen always had reserved bearings, so he just said in a simple way, “The battle that occurred from the battle for the Ancestral Dao Root.”


“It's not that simple.” A cultivator spoke uneasily. He and the other two cultivators were looking for the Ancestral Dao Root with Zhuanyu Shui. Just a moment ago, if Zhuanyu Shui had not fought desperately to protect them, then they would probably have been killed by Di Jun.


Of course, in the end, it was all thanks to Chen Xi helping out, and this allowed them to completely avoid disaster.


According to the description given by this cultivator, Zhuanyu Shui's group had seen a group of Ancestral Roots by chance, after all, and the most joyous fact was that it shocked a group of Ancestral Roots who had produced four Levels of the Seven Roots Ancestor Dao Roots!


However, just as they gathered these four Ancestral Dao Roots, they met Luo Shaonong, Di Jun, and the others. So, a terrible battle was inevitable.


In the end, Zhuanyu Shui fought desperately but was only able to maintain one seventh-grade Dao Ancestral Root, whereas, the other three had been confiscated.


When they heard all this, the expressions of Le Wuhen and the others turned grim. They're too far away! It was the seventh grade Ancestral Dao Root!


Those Ancestral Dao Roots could be said to be treasures that could only happen by chance due to luck, and each one of them was extremely rare. Yet now, Luo Shaonong's group forcefully caught the three of them. Moreover, Zhuanyu Shui and the others almost lost their lives because of it. So, how could they not growl?


“Hmph! We really can't let this matter pass. Since they dare to do that, then we should retaliate! ”Yuqiu Jing was the first one who was unable to contain herself, and she gritted her teeth and spoke angrily.


“Persis. We must reclaim the third seventh grade Ancestral Dao Root! ”The other cultivators spoke in succession as well. They had continued to search for the Ancestral Dao Root in the past few days, yet not only had they obtained only a few Ancestral Dao Roots, all of these Ancestral Dao Roots had yet to reach the seventh level. Thus, when they heard that the three seventh-grade Ancestral Dao Roots that came from their group had been captured, it was impossible for them not to feel angry.


“It is not recommended. We still haven't gotten enough Ancestral Dao Roots right now, so it's not advisable for us to fight Luo Shaonong's group right now. “Le Wuhen pondered deeply for a long time, and then he shook his head and said,” First, if we launch an attack against them now, then, then it will definitely affect our operation to search for the Ancestral Dao Root. Second, our true destination is the ninth grade Emperor Rank Ancestral Dao Root within the Genesis Ancestral Root. If we enter the battle now in advance, then many other powers will probably take advantage of the opportunities it creates. After all, it is not only our group and Luo Shaonong's group that have entered the Ancestral Root Area this time around. “


These words make sense. So, even though they were all extremely unwilling, they could only accept it.


Indeed, if they entered a battle with Luo Shaonong's group now, then it would definitely be a terrifying battle. Even to the point of not exaggerating to say that even if they could regain all three Ancestral Dao Roots in the end, both of their groups would definitely suffer great losses.


Such an outcome was something that was unacceptable to them.


“No need to rush. As long as they are still inside the Ancestral Root Root, then we will still have a chance to reclaim them. “Chen Xi said,” Even if we can't take revenge now, we will definitely find Luo Shaonong's belong to the group when the Genesis Ancestral Root appears. At that time, we can end all hostilities. “


When they heard Chen Xi say all this, they all immediately understood that they could choose to exercise patience for now.


……


After which, everyone had a brief discussion before they decided to stop parting ways into a smaller team. They made this decision to avoid another incident like the one Zhuanyu Shui's group suffered.


Without wasting any time, everything left once again.


On the way, Chen Xi learned that the team of Le Wuhen, Shentu Yanran, and Yuqiu Jing had faced a lot of competition and battle as well, but they were able to pass through it safely. Unfortunately, they only obtained a few Ancestral Dao Roots.


On the other hand, it was his own group that had obtained the most Ancestral Dao Root.


However, there was still around 10 days before the Genesis Ancestral Root appeared, and if nothing unexpected happened, then they would not have to worry about not being able to obtain the Ancestral Dao Root. The only problem they faced was the quality of this Ancestral Dao Root.


Five days later, Chen Xi's group stood in front of the seventh grade Ancestral Root. Le Wuhen, Shentu Yanran, Yuqiu Jing, and the others had slightly helpless expressions.


It could not help as they were a step late again, and it was the empty seventh grade Ancestral Root that was before them!


During these five days, they had not encountered much danger, and were at peace along the way. Moreover, with the strength they had, all the others did not dare to fight them at all after they had gathered together.


However, they had only obtained six Ancestral Dao Roots alone along the way, and four of them were in fifth grade while two were in sixth grade. They did not even obtain a single seventh grade Dao Ancestral Root.


It was not that they had not discovered the seventh grade Ancestral Root, and it was precisely this Ancestral Root that had been discovered by others long before they had discovered it.


The current situation within their group was where other than Chen Xi, Le Wuhen, Shentu Yanran, and Yuqiu Jing, all the other cultivators in their group had obtained their respective Ancestral Dao Roots. The roots of this Ancestral Dao were in the sixth or fifth grade, so they were somewhat satisfied.


Zhuanyu Shui on the other hand had obtained the seventh grade Dao Root Ancestor a long time ago.


Only Chen Xi and the other Spirit God Beasts were bitterly searching for the Ancestral Dao Root in the seventh grade or so yet to return empty-handed. This caused them to be unable to help but feel a little anxious in their hearts.


Moreover, it would not be long before the Ancestral Genesis Root appeared. At that time, they would not have any further time to obtain the other Ancestral Dao Roots.


In other words, there was not much time left for them to obtain the Ancestral Dao Root.


“Damn it! There were at least 300 cultivators entering the Ancestral Root Land this time around, and it had caused the competition to become even more intense. Finding the undiscovered Ancestral Root was as difficult as ascending to heaven. ”Yuqiu Jing was a little agitated.


“Although like this, there are still some undiscovered areas. This means that we still have opportunities, and there is no need to worry. “Le Wuhen smiled as he comforted.


“I naturally understand that principle. However, I am worried that other cultivators will have already arrived there before we arrived. “Yuqiu Jing said in a depressed tone,” The number of seventh grade Dao Roots Ancestors has been rare since the beginning, what will we do if this continues? “


Shentu Yanran pondered deeply before he said, “If there is no other way, then we will go look for Luo Shaonong!”


“Search him?” Yuqiu Jing was stunned, and then she spoke in a shocked tone. “You mean we should reclaim the third seventh grade Dao Ancestral Root from him?”


Shentu Yanran shrugged and said, “Do you have any other ideas besides that?”


Chen Xi who had remained silent from the start spoke suddenly at this moment. “I mean to find yourself.”


Everyone was stunned when they heard this.


Afterwards, Le Wuhen said, “Chen Xi, it is very dangerous.”


Chen Xi smiled as she said, “I understand. However, it is not easy for anyone to look for trouble with me. “


When they noticed that Chen Xi had already made up her mind, they stopped persuading her.


“Then keep your Mindnet Shell well, and let us know immediately if you find any danger. Remember that you must return before the Genesis Ancestral Root appears. “Le Wuhen instructs.


“I understand.” Chen Xi nodded, and her figure flashed before she left quickly.


“This person, Chen Xi, will not intend to kill and snatch the treasures of others by himself, right?” Yuqiu Jin joked.


“He will not act like that, unless he meets his enemies.” Shentu Yanran seemed to be deep in thought, and he was unable to understand Chen Xi's intentions.


“Come fast and move too. We don't have much time left. I hope that we can all obtain the seventh grade Ancestral Dao Root each before the Genesis Ancestral Root appears. “Le Wuhen took a deep breath and spoke slowly.


The change in the current situation caused them to not dare hope to be able to obtain a rank eight Ancestral King Dao Root, and this clearly showed how great the competition they were in was. Because even a high-level High God Realm like them found it extremely difficult, and they had no choice but to take a step back and choose the second best option.


Swooshes!


At the same time, Chen Xi's figure flickered in the space as she whistled directly to the north.


In these past few days, as the time of the Genesis Ancestral Root appeared nearer and nearer, traces of that faint call appeared once again in his heart.


At this point in time, this summoning trail even became very clear. It was constantly wrapped around his heart, and it caused Chen Xi to be unable to sit still.


He was not sure what this summoning meant, and whether it was danger or luck. So, due to their safety considerations, he said goodbye to everyone and chose to travel there alone!
