Chapter 269 - 144: Azure Crystal Demon Fox and Demonic Wolf Pack Battle with Fire, Fisherman Gains the Advantage (9500 words)
[Monster Name]: Azure Crystal Demon Fox
[Combat Power Level]: Level 9 (Elite)
[Species Level]: Extraordinary/ High [Monster Attribute]: Stone Series
[Monster Weakness]: Water
[Species Skills]: Azure Crystal Armor, Rock Flying Blades, Stone Huge Cannon, Crystal Fang Tear, Claw Swing
[Monster Status]: Injured (poisoned by the Demonic Wolf’s claws), Irritable Hidden behind a slanted big stone, Chen Fan silently observed the Azure Crystal Demon Fox in the distance, his eyes a little heavy.
He and Chu Xuan and the others were all under the cover of Elder Ape’s
“Shadow Canopy. ”
But facing this level of monster, they still didn’t dare to get too close and could only hide far away to observe.
The injured Azure Crystal Demon Fox had a semi-transparent net-shaped Qingjing shield on its body, flickering with a faint light.
It was lying on a cyan stone, looking very weak.
The Fire Demon Stone Mine was right behind the demon fox.
The Azure Crystal Demon Fox was actually using the Star Power from the Fire Demon Stone Mine to heal its wounds!
Chen Fan couldn’t help but frown.
Extraordinary/ High level…
A level 9 Extraordinary/ High level, if it were considered as a level 10 Extraordinary/Moderate, would be quite normal.
In the 2nd Secret Realm Zone D, what Chen Fan least wanted to encounter were monsters with high species levels and defensive skills.
A level 9 high-ranking extraordinary monster had enough power to crush all the people and Guardian Beasts present!
Under the control of Elder Ape and Blackie, as long as a level 9 monster’s defense wasn’t extremely strong and there were no more than two of them, Chen Fan could basically rely on the Heaven-severing Demon Sword in his hand to kill them in a flash.
However, the Azure Crystal Demon Fox before him had a powerful Azure Crystal Armor.
And its species level had reached Extraordinary/High…
Taking Snowy and Gangzi to face it would be too risky!
Chu Xuan’s actual strength was even weaker than Snowy and the others, and his battle armor’s defense wasn’t strong enough. If he were careless, he could be killed by the monster with a single claw!
Ye Hao’s armor had fairly high defense and his axe’s attack power was much stronger than Chu Xuan’s sword, but his cultivation level was still First Rank Five Heavens.
It was a bit frustrating…
According to Blackie and the Desert Wind Falcon’s observations, there were groups of Demonic Wolves on both sides within eighty meters, each with at least two level 9 Demonic Wolves!
If they couldn’t kill the Azure Crystal Demon Fox instantly, the commotion would attract the wolves from both sides…
Then there’d be no way out!
“This is a lonely old wolf…”
Li Fengxing sighed lightly and whispered, “Because it was injured by other wolves, the young wolves just abandoned it!”
“Aren’t people the same? If they encounter a strong monster in the wilderness, the old can abandon the young, the young can abandon the old, not to mention companions… What’s the difference between people now and dogs?” “…” Chen Fan and the others silently looked at Li Fengxing.
Seeing everyone looking at him, Li Fengxing immediately sighed again, showing a constipated expression.
Chen Fan took a deep breath and said, “For Guardian Beastmasters, the most important thing is to practice and read more books…”
“More practice can protect your parents and companions, and more reading gives you insight… For example, with this situation, if you had read more, you’d probably realize that this is a fucking fox!”
Li Fengxing widened his eyes, “Not possible, this looks nothing like a
Three-Tailed Fire Fox!”
“It’s not a Three-Tailed Fire Fox!” Chen Fan said impatiently, “This is an Azure Crystal Demon Fox… Open your Krypton Dog Eyes and see clearly, this is completely different from the Demonic Wolves we killed before! ”
Li Fengxing scratched his head, “Why does it look similar to me?”
Chen Fan:
Talking to this guy can damage your liver and lungs.
Seeing Chen Fan’s frown, Chu Xuan asked, “Is it troublesome?”
Chen Fan lowered his voice and said, “A bit difficult… This is probably a level 10 monster.”
“What!” Shen Hongxiu and the others were all shocked. Chu Xuan’s eyes also showed surprise, “Are you sure?”
Chen Fan nodded slightly, “More or less.”
Some Guardian Beasts in this world have skills that can detect the levels of other Guardian Beasts or monsters.
There are also some special cultivation methods that can, with the help of Guardian Beasts, approximately determine the levels of other Guardian Beasts or monsters.
So, when Chen Fan mentioned the monster’s level on several previous occasions, Chu Xuan and the others were shocked but didn’t think much about it.
Now, whenever they encounter monsters, they let Chen Fan check the situation before making tactical arrangements. But if this monster really was level 10…
That would be a big problem!
Fang Qingqing was silent for a moment and whispered, “There are many more mine spots on that map, and we don’t need all the ores. We might as well just give up on this mine. There is no need to take too much risk.”
Shen Hongxiu added, “Indeed, facing a monster of this level, none of us or our
Guardian Beasts can be of much help.”
“The only option is to let Blackie and Elder Ape work together with Xiaofan.”
“But just now, Blackie said there were two groups of Demonic Wolves about eighty meters to the left and right, with a total of four level 9 wolves…”
“If they can’t be killed instantly like before, it will inevitably attract both groups of Demonic Wolves.”
“At that time, we’d have no chance to escape!”
