When I woke up, I wanted to go home.

Chapter 269 Monster Attack

Half an hour after the few creatures emerged from Zhu Chongjiu's dantian.

Then they saw the older Hu Lie in a secluded corner in the distance.

He told the younger children about his ninth brother and his wife.

Although Zhu Chongjiu couldn't hear Hu Lie's intentional whispers, he could clearly hear the exaggerated exclamations of the little ones.

Murong Yu, standing beside Zhu Chongjiu, showed a rare hint of shyness.

Zhu Chongjiu glanced helplessly at the little ones again and again.

Because he knew that even if he interrupted Hu Lie's gossip now, it wouldn't work.

Even if he forbids Hu Lie from mentioning Zhu Chongjiu and Murong Yu.

In the days to come, with the intelligence of Xiao Jin and his friends, they will surely be able to extract all the information they have from Hu Lie.

However, at this awkward yet harmonious moment, something unexpected happened.

Zhu Chongjiu suddenly pulled Murong Yu into his arms and retreated rapidly.

They only stopped when they retreated to the vicinity of the little ones and Hu Lie.

This sudden change left everyone puzzled.

Just as Murong Yu and Xiao Jin were asking Zhu Chongjiu about his intentions, everyone heard a faint cry for help coming from the entrance of the cave.

After a few breaths, the cries for help grew louder.

Now everyone knew that someone had entered the cave they were in.

A moment later, three ragged, blood-covered immortals appeared at the entrance of the cave.

As soon as the three immortals entered the cave hall, they saw Zhu Chongjiu and his group in the distance.

At this moment, they didn't care whether Zhu Chongjiu was their enemy or not.

The roars of the demonic beast behind them drove them to run madly toward Zhu Chongjiu.

Before the three immortals had gone far into the cave, a demon beast followed them in.

Saw this scene.

The immortal running in the lead suddenly turned around and pushed one of his companions to the ground.

It was used to stop the monster's advance.

Upon seeing this, Murong Yu, who was hiding behind Zhu Chongjiu, immediately pulled herself out of her arms.

He took out the last five jade pendants and distributed them to the five little ones.

They were also told to wear it close to their bodies and not to lose it.

Zhu Chongjiu, standing in front of everyone, was looking at the scene before him with a solemn expression.

One of the three immortals was also one of the five who led the group.

He was also the one who had just used his companion to hold off the monsters.

However, even from the entrance of the cave hall, it was only a little over a hundred meters away from Zhu Chongjiu and his group.

But when the leader of the immortals was only about thirty meters away from Zhu Chongjiu, a demonic beast bit him around the waist.

After being bitten by the beast's jaws, the immortal reached out to Zhu Chongjiu in agony, repeatedly crying out for help.

Before Zhu Chongjiu could make any move, the monster's huge mouth suddenly opened wide.

The immortal was then bitten in half at the waist.

Thus, all three immortals perished.

After killing the three, the monster did not continue its attack on Zhu Chongjiu and his companions.

Instead, he stared intently at Zhu Chongjiu, while pacing back and forth in place, growling softly.

Only now, with the light from inside the cave, could Zhu Chongjiu clearly see the appearance of the monster.

It is about ten feet long, and its limbs and claws are like those of a lion or tiger.

It has a human-like face but with fangs sticking out.

It has a mane around its neck like a lion's.

Its entire body is jet black and shiny, without any hair or scales.

The top of the head and the back of the spine look like pieces of protruding bone.

The pieces are spaced about 30 centimeters apart, but they are not sharp.

A thick tail swayed back and forth behind it, slapping the ground with a loud cracking sound.

Just as Zhu Chongjiu was observing the monster, Xiao Jin behind him whispered to him, "Brother Jiu, what is this thing?"

He's nowhere near as imposing and muscular as my black brother.

Zhu Chongjiu did not answer Xiao Hei's question.

Instead, he walked slowly forward and out of the crowd.

They walked towards the monster.

At the same time, he said to the people behind him, "I'll go and have a go at it first. You all be careful."

Seeing Zhu Chongjiu walk towards the demon beast, Hu Lie wanted to follow.

Murong Yu also subconsciously reached out to grab Zhu Chongjiu.

However, the two of them were stopped by the little ones.

After Zhu Chongjiu finished speaking, Xiong Da, who had been mostly silent, said from the side, "Don't worry, Ninth Brother will be fine."

Even if he's no match for us, we'll fight to the death to save Ninth Brother.

Hearing the burly man in front of him speak, Hu Lie flattered him from the side, saying, "As long as my brother Xiong is here, I feel safe!"

This one sentence gave everyone goosebumps.

Seeing Zhu Chongjiu walking towards it, the demon beast stopped its movements as it scurried back and forth in the cave.

Zhu Chongjiu stopped when he was two meters away from the monster.

Upon seeing someone provoke it, the demonic beast immediately pounced towards Zhu Chongjiu.

Seeing the monster rushing towards him, Zhu Chongjiu stomped his foot and twisted his hips to gather strength, and then launched a spinning kick.

The kick landed squarely on the monster's head, sending it flying.

Based on the size of this monster, it weighs approximately a thousand jin (500 kg).

A normal ordinary person who has practiced martial arts for many years can kick out a weight of two or three hundred pounds.

Moreover, the move Zhu Chongjiu is currently using is one of the most ferocious leg techniques in Muay Thai.

Although Zhu Chongjiu is now in mortal form, he still possesses golden bones and blood, along with the nourishment from his previous cultivation and rare and precious materials.

At this moment, the density of his muscles and bones is several times greater than that of an ordinary person.

Therefore, even though Zhu Chongjiu's kick had a weight of two or three thousand kilograms, this was without him using his full strength.

In fact, those who were killed by the monsters could all have killed the monsters themselves, not to mention that they were capable of killing them single-handedly.

However, thanks to their years of absorbing immortal spiritual power and being nourished by rare and precious materials, the group of them working together could still kill a demonic beast.

This is also the result of Zhu Chongjiu's observation of this demonic beast and his subsequent killing of the three immortals.

When Zhu Chongjiu personally fought against this monster, his conjecture was confirmed.

Monsters also lack the power of immortals.

Upon discovering this, Zhu Chongjiu's expression became more composed.

However, the monster that was kicked dozens of meters away managed to use its momentum in mid-air.

Its body, which had been flying horizontally, was twisted back around.

Upon landing, the force caused it to slide several meters further before coming to a stop.

The once smooth rocky ground was now covered in deep dents from the beast's claws.

Seeing this, Zhu Chongjiu did not press his advantage. However, after the demon beast regained its footing, it rushed towards Zhu Chongjiu at an incredible speed.

Because of the kick Zhu Chongjiu gave him.

This time, the monster changed its strategy and no longer pounced.

Instead, he waited until he was close to Zhu Chongjiu, then raised his giant claw and slapped it towards Zhu Chongjiu's head.

Step back and dodge to the side!

Zhu Chongjiu raised his hand and slapped away the giant claw that was sweeping past him.

At the same time, due to inertia, the monster's head had already reached Zhu Chongjiu's front.

Wear, straighten, pick, take!

Zhu Chongjiu then used the Tai Chi Single Cloud Hand technique to grab the bone horn on the top of the monster's head.

Tai Chi Single Cloud Hand refers to the Tai Chi silk-reeling energy.

Mastering the Tai Chi silk-reeling energy is like training your body's muscles to be as springy as a spring.

This allows one to more effectively utilize the Tai Chi principle of using minimal force to overcome great strength.

After Zhu Chongjiu used Tai Chi Single Cloud Hand to grab the bone horn on the top of the monster's head, he immediately used Tai Chi Silk Reeling Force, using the technique of using four ounces to deflect a thousand pounds, taking advantage of the monster's own inertia.

He slammed the monster to the ground.

Even the rocky ground was cracked quite a bit by this blow.

The monster that had been knocked to the ground quickly got up.

Xiao Jin, who was watching from the sidelines, exclaimed in surprise, "This thing is really tough!"

Even now, I might not be able to get up after what Ninth Brother just did.

After hearing Xiao Jin's assessment, everyone re-examined the monster.

The beast got up, but black blood was flowing from its mouth.

It seems that he was also internally injured by Zhu Chongjiu's move just now.

After the monster got up, it did not attack Zhu Chongjiu.

It seems that this monster is also very intelligent.

Since it suffered losses from attacking, it now followed Zhu Chongjiu's example and adopted a strategy of remaining unchanged in the face of all changes.

Upon seeing this, Zhu Chongjiu exclaimed in surprise, "I spent countless days and nights on the ship practicing this martial art!"

How could a beast with a brain like you possibly defend against it?

Since you're not coming, then I'll go.

After saying that, Zhu Chongjiu flew towards the monster!
