My best friend and I both transmigrated to the world of cultivation; she'll take care of killin

Chapter 88 A Group of Unexpected Adversaries Emerge

Ji Se is in a good mood now, especially since Cheng Nan treats her quite well.

"what colour?"

"White, junior sister, I want white."

After speaking hastily, Cheng Nan lowered his head in annoyance, wondering if his junior sister would think he was greedy for saying such things.

"Alright, senior brother, this is yours."

They took out two cars and placed them in front of Cheng Nan.

Cheng Nan looked at her in surprise and disbelief: "Really, Junior Sister, you're giving it to me?"

"Okay, take it!"

Ji Se looked up at the two cars coming towards him, feeling very satisfied.

That's great. From now on, she won't have to rely entirely on the fan for spirit stones, and she can have her own path.

A fan makes things much easier.

Jian Wu opened the car door, put the car away with satisfaction, and was about to have a chat with his junior disciple when his unfilial senior disciple beat him to it, his face instantly turning ashen.

Jin Zhilin packed up his car, ran up to her, and said excitedly, "Junior sister, this thing is really good. If you come across something even faster and better in the future, you can give it to your senior brother!"

"Have some shame! I'm giving this to you. Don't you even know how old your junior sister is? You're shameless to take it, and I'm embarrassed to even look at her. Get your ass in here right now!"

If it weren't for maintaining his reputation as a master, Jian Wu would have rolled his eyes to the heavens.

Jin Zhilin tapped his head with his fan, feeling embarrassed for a moment, but immediately resumed his nonchalant demeanor.

"Alright, Master is right. You're still young and resources are limited. Your senior brother will buy from you later. I won't take advantage of you, haha!"

Gise didn't pay any attention.

The value of the Frost Spirit Pearl is more than ten thousand off-road vehicles; she got a great deal.

"Let's talk about it after the research is done. Right now, I'm more interested in improving my strength."

The fan has already reached the seventh level of foundation building, while she's still stuck at the fourth level. How can I protect her?

The four returned to their cave dwelling. Jian Wu couldn't help but get angry at his eldest disciple's nonchalant attitude.

"Jin Zhilin, what did you say to your junior brother? It scared him so much that he doesn't dare to go on his training."

Jin Zhilin was bewildered by the questioning, glanced at Cheng Nan, and quickly understood.

"No, I was just joking with him. Besides, cultivators, especially sword cultivators like us, should face difficulties head-on. How can we back down after being scared a little? Second Junior Brother's mentality is not right."

After he finished speaking, he shook his head with an air of seriousness.

Cheng Nan knew he was right and said with shame, "Senior Brother is right, I wasn't prepared."

Ji Se glanced at Cheng Nan.

Could Cheng Nan be faking it too?

She remembered that Cheng Nan's personality wasn't like this when they were in the secret realm.

Could he have been possessed?

No, there shouldn't be.

That was a disguise, but why? She couldn't quite understand it.

Is there some big secret that she doesn't know?

She should take care of herself first.

"You two go back first, and remember to come back at 3:45 AM tomorrow. I have something to discuss with your senior brother."

"Yes, Master!"

"Yes, Master!"

After the two left, Jin Zhilin's nonchalant demeanor vanished instantly, replaced by a somber expression.

"How did things go?"

"The news is true. In Miluo Star Sea, a large number of sea beasts have indeed entered the shallow waters. They did not attack actively, but simply submerged in the water, as if waiting for orders."

"Purpose?"

Jin Zhilin shook his head: "I don't know! But I can be sure that the visitors are not friendly. Second and third-tier monsters are leading the charge. The highest level of monsters we have found so far is seventh-tier."

"what?!"

Jian Wuceng stood up, his expression solemn.

A third-tier demon beast is equivalent to the Foundation Establishment stage in humans, a sixth-tier beast is equivalent to the Nascent Soul stage, and a seventh-tier beast is equivalent to the Body Integration stage.

Are these sea monsters crazy?

Jian paced back and forth without any anxiety.

"More than one."

Jin Zhilin looked terrified.

"And there's more than one. What are they trying to do?"

A seventh-tier demonic beast wouldn't easily make a move, and there was more than one, meaning that at least an eighth-tier demonic beast was controlling it.

It might even be the ninth rank.

There is currently only a siege, no attack, but that doesn't mean there won't be an attack.

We must find out the reason for this; only by finding out the cause and effect can we negotiate.

Unlike humans, sea creatures find it difficult to reproduce after humans begin cultivating their skills; it is very difficult for mortals to produce offspring with exceptional talent.

After ten thousand years of recovery, the total number of cultivators is still less than 20% of what it was ten thousand years ago.

But sea monsters are different; they give birth to a whole flock at once. Although cultivation is difficult, their numbers are large.

Moreover, ten thousand years ago, marine mammals did not cause as much damage as humans.

If war were to break out, humanity as it is today might not be able to win, nor could it possibly win.

Humanity can no longer afford to fight, and cannot afford to lose its foundation.

"You go back and rest first, I'll go find the sect leader."

"Yes, Master!"

Jin Zhilin stared blankly at the spot where Jian Wu had disappeared, unable to calm down for a long time.

Back in her cave, Ji Se hurriedly asked Gui Gui to contact Tu Shan, as she wanted to share the good news of her unexpected windfall with her.

[Sister Se, you should wait a bit. Sister Shan needs to concentrate fully on what she's doing right now and can't afford to be distracted.]

What is she doing?

[Didn't Sister Fan tell you she was going to pick the Pure Jade Silver Frost Grass? Unexpectedly, a bunch of unexpected people showed up halfway through, and they're currently arguing about it.]

"When it comes to talking, I believe no one can beat Shanzi. I'll take care of something for a while and have her contact me after she finishes her battle."

The system hesitated for a moment, then decided to speak less and let the two of them talk more to generate more "best friend points".

They bonded, and she gained "best friend points"—a win-win-win situation. She told Sister Se that she couldn't really help much.

Tu Shan looked at the jade-colored toad in front of him with a headache. No, it was a toad.

Indeed, considering that three-legged toads are associated with attracting wealth and prosperity, she couldn't help but feel more patient and fond of these creatures.

"Why are you stopping me? Do you want to make me rich or do you want to get rich with me?"

"Brothers and sisters, you want the Pure Jade Silver Frost Grass, and so do I. We share the same goal, and we should move towards it together."

"Look at those wary eyes of yours, is it really necessary? You guys are so mean!"

"I treat you as brothers and sisters and friends, but you treat me as an opponent and an enemy. That's not right. You should know that we are from the same country. We are all people and monsters of the money-loving nation."

Pure Jade Toad: Who's on our side? You're about to steal our home, and you're still pretending to be an honored guest. Have some shame!

You're just taking advantage of our inability to speak, so you keep babbling on and on. Otherwise, we would definitely have a verbal battle with you.

Tu Shan was unaware of what Jingyu Toad was thinking; she was now extremely flustered.

your sister!

There were basketball-sized fourth-order jade toads everywhere, and any one of them was at the Golden Core stage. How could she not panic?

These jade toads can survive in this poisonous fog zone, so why would they be afraid of mere venom?

The Jade Toad itself can purify toxins, just like the Jade Silver Frost Grass.

Mature Jade Frost Grass can help them improve their cultivation and purification abilities.

Now, trying to snatch food from the toad's mouth will likely be fraught with difficulties.

She was unwilling to leave, especially since she wasn't sure if the toads would let her go.

If you don't quit, you can't win at all.

Headache!

I wonder if her refined venom will be enough to kill even a few of them.

Tu Shan suddenly slapped his forehead, recalling something important when he talked about Venom.

This might be a new turning point.
