Chapter 117 Bartering for Things
Can someone tell him if Wei Chen is really just a fortune teller?
Damn. Even the most ruthless Taoist priests can't compare, right?
It took them several men a lot of effort to kill one vengeful ghost, but when it came to Wei Chen, he simply raised his hand, summoned some lightning, and wiped it all out.
That's right, it was cleared.
Wu Chongjun practices witchcraft; he can instantly release hundreds, even tens of thousands, of insects to scout the surrounding area. Just now, Wu Chongjun could feel that more than half of the insects he had released had disappeared.
He died in the lightning.
Wu Chongjun was somewhat devastated. It wasn't that he was reluctant to part with the insects; those insects could multiply into hundreds of thousands or even millions in a matter of minutes. However, Wu Chongjun always felt that he was an indispensable part of the team.
In contrast, this fortune teller was just there for show.
But a fortune teller, a support class, a class that can at most act as a mascot in the team.
You're telling me he can wipe out all the monsters here?
Are you kidding me?
Wu Chongjun suddenly felt that his worldview had collapsed.
Besides Wu Chongjun, Yang Jinbao also felt the same way.
Yang Jinbao is a shamanic disciple, and he usually carries two protective spirit horses with him. In fact, they are the spirits of two animals. There are more than a hundred shamanic priests in Yang Jinbao's family, and all five families of fox, yellow, white, willow and gray spirits are represented. One of the protective spirit horses he wears is from the yellow family, and the other is from the willow family.
The five shamanic spirits are Hu, Huang, Bai, Liu, and Hui. Hu refers to foxes, Huang to weasels, Bai to hedgehogs, Liu to snakes, and Hui to rats.
The surnames Hu, Huang, Bai, Liu, and Hui are used, but Liu is an exception. Snakes can also have the surname Mang, Chang, or Chang. The saying "Chang and Mang are inseparable" refers to this.
The Huang family's and the Liu family's protective messengers are the two most powerful among all the shamans. When Yang Jinbao first saw Wei Chen, the Liu family's protective messenger warned him that Wei Chen was no pushover.
But no one expected Wei Chen to be so fierce.
Wu Chongjun was able to understand his surroundings by using the insects in his hands.
However, Yang Jinbao could quickly react to the surrounding environment through the Huang and Liu families around him. The Liu family had just told him that all the ghosts within a hundred miles, those below the level of the Fiend King, had been killed, and even the Fiend Kings were severely injured.
If they add another stroke, their soul will be completely annihilated.
The key point is that these ghosts disappeared completely, leaving nothing behind.
Yang Jinbao was truly speechless.
Who can so easily wipe out the souls within a hundred miles with a single move?
Even a nine-star Taoist master might not be able to do that, right?
What kind of monster did their team recruit?
Fortunately, Wei Chen was their friend, not their enemy.
Right now, everyone on every team is thinking about the same question.
Who knows how Wei Chen will torment the other students from Tongling University during the assessment?
Just thinking about it makes me feel sorry for them.
Du Tianning never expected such a thing to happen. Although Du Tianning and Jiang Ye had already been dealt with by Wei Chen, they never imagined that a support class could radiate such brilliance.
Wei Chen coughed and said, "Now that they're not chasing us anymore, let's go."
Du Tianning nodded: "But the commotion is a bit too big. I estimate that it won't be long before a one-star hellish creature comes to our side."
"You mean something like a corpse leopard?" Wei Chen asked, puzzled.
“That’s right, I’m not talking about those big, harmless monsters.” Du Tianning nodded worriedly and said, “We’d better leave quickly. This place has suddenly become a vacuum, which will definitely attract attention. If that happens, we’ll be in trouble.”
“Aside from the likes of corpse leopards, that’s fine. But if a few high-level ones come, we might not be able to defend against them.” Jiang Ye quickly said, “Unless you can summon hundreds of lightning bolts of that intensity at will.”
Jiang Ye, after all, studied under Lu Ban, and his control over power was clearer than anyone else's.
Jiang Ye carefully examined Wei Chen: "I'm not trying to criticize you, I just want to ask you, how many of those lightning bolts could you release just now?"
“I’ve been building up my power since I came in, and it’s not something I can just release easily.” Wei Chen told the truth: “However, the longer I build up my power, the more powerful the lightning I release will be.”
Jiang Ye was surprised by this answer. If Wei Chen had told him this a few hours earlier, Jiang Ye would not have believed it and would have thought Wei Chen was bragging.
But now, Jiang Ye has no choice but to believe it.
This guy is a freak.
That's really amazing.
Jiang Ye coughed and said to Wei Chen, "Then why do you want to become a fortune teller? You could be a Taoist priest and make money, at least more than a fortune teller."
Wei Chen rolled his eyes in annoyance: "How can you compare? Taoist priests earn their money through hard work, risking their lives, braving wind and rain. It's not as comfortable as fortune tellers, who can easily swindle you for ten or eight years."
Those words almost made Jiang Ye choke to death.
Jiang Ye rolled her eyes in annoyance and said, "You're awesome, you're amazing."
Du Tianning interrupted, "That was just a joke, nothing serious. Let's hurry back to the academy. The academy in the mirror world is blessed and different from the normal academy. You'll understand once you go in. I don't need to say more."
The group quickly set off.
……
……
Within the black city, skyscrapers rise from the ground. The only difference between the mirror world and the real world outside is the sun. The sun in the mirror world is always gray and hazy, giving the impression that a sphere hastily drawn in the sky, and the artist's skills are not very advanced.
Under the vast sky, there was a figure that looked very weak. It was just a child. He shielded his eyes from the sunlight with his pale hand and said softly, "The sunlight in the mirror world is still fake."
"Well."
"Can you understand what I'm saying?"
"Well."
“You’ll never understand.” The child raised his head, his pale face almost transparent, his fiery red demonic eyes fixed on the distance: “When will our army be able to break through the mirror world and reach the real world? That would be wonderful.”
"Well."
Under the sunlight, the seemingly frail figure was flanked by two enormous demons, one on the left and one on the right, like bodyguards.
The child sniffed: "A master has arrived, and many souls have vanished. They disappeared so suddenly, isn't that interesting?" A strange smile appeared on the child's face, and his fiery red eyes held amusement.
He reached out and grabbed at the air, pulling out the writhing ghost. Without a word, the child threw it into his mouth: "How boring, it doesn't taste good at all."
"Well."
