Chapter 112: The Astonished Clayton
Translator: Simple MTL Editor: Simple MTL
“That’s not right. This person doesn’t have any demonic aura. Could it be the Ultimate realm powerhouse of the Heavenly God Sect?”
Countless thoughts flashed through Andrew’s mind in an instant.
He hurriedly glanced at his strengthening points.
So far, he had already accumulated 910,000 points.
If he wanted to increase his strength, he could do so at any time.
However, even if he tried to increase his strength now, he probably wouldn’t be able to defeat a peak powerhouse.
At this moment, the figure that was more than ten kilometers away appeared beside Andrew in the next instant.
This speed…
Could only be described as terrifying.
He looked around with a stunned expression on his face.
After a moment, he muttered, “Andrew, what’s going on?”
Seeing Andrew looking at him vigilantly, the man smiled and introduced himself.
“I’m Clayton, the person in charge of the Martial Arts Administration. I came here this time because I heard that the Heavenly God Sect wanted to deal with you. I came here to save you.”
Clayton?
Andrew remembered this name.
In his memory, he had some impression of this person.
When Chris came here before, he had mentioned this person.
This was a top-notch expert.
Andrew heaved a sigh of relief. He thought that it was an enemy, but it turned out that it was one of his own.
He said, “Clayton, you came at the right time. I’ve already killed those three pseudo-ninth-grade warriors. However, this demonic plant in front of me is difficult to kill.”
“Pseudo-ninth-grade?” Clayton was stunned when he heard Andrew’s words. He asked in surprise, “What pseudo-ninth-grade?”
Andrew said seriously, “I’ve fought with ninth-grade warriors a few times. I’ve found that some of them are strong and some are weak.
“For example, Black Panther King, Seventh Elder of the Heavenly God Sect, and that ninth-grade warrior of the Heavenly God Sect, who I don’t know, are all very weak.
“They are even…”
Andrew wanted to say that they couldn’t break even through his defense.
But then he thought about it.
That mysterious ninth-grade warrior had used some kind of move that actually broke through his skin and flesh.
He even left a mark on his shoulder.
He changed his words and said, “At most, they could barely break through my defense.
“This kind of ninth-grade expert doesn’t pose a threat to me at all. They can’t be considered as a true ninth-stage expert!
“They haven’t even comprehended the power of concept.
“At most, they can only be considered as a pseudo-ninth-grade expert!”
Even if Clayton had seen many experts, or even Ultimate powerhouses, he couldn’t help but ask, “Then, in your eyes, what is a true ninth stage expert?”
Andrew pondered for a long time.
After thinking for a while, he opened his mouth. With a serious look on his face, he said, “Although my cultivation is barely on par with the seventh-grade realm, I think that a true ninth-grade warrior needs at least the strength of a seventh stage or eighth stage golden body at the eighth grade. He also needs to master the power of concept!”
Seventh stage of the Qi Formation realm, corresponding to a seventh stage warrior?
Andrew felt that there was no problem with such a comparison.
F*ck!
Hearing this, Clayton almost stumbled and fell to the ground.
He was extremely shocked.
Kid, do you know how difficult it is to cultivate a seventh-stage golden body martial artist?
An eighth-grade martial artist?
Refining golden bones and golden flesh?
It was easier to cultivate in the early grades, but once one broke through to the sixth grade, the resources consumed were too great.
Moreover, even if one had enough resources, one might not be able to advance further.
This thing did not only depend on one’s hard work but also a part of one’s cultivation talent.
Not everyone could cultivate just because they wanted to.
Clayton did not want to waste time on this matter. After a dry cough, he looked up at the Elm King.
The Elm King’s body was once again glued together after being hacked by Andrew a few times.
He smiled and said, “Andrew, if you want to kill a demonic plant, you can’t do it with a sword!
“You have to know that the life form of a demonic plant is completely different from that of humans and demonic beasts!
“You can use the method of killing humans and demonic beasts to deal with a demonic plant, but it’s not effective. You can say that it can’t cause fatal damage!”
Normally, humans and monsters below the pinnacle state could be killed by piercing through the head or heart.
But the demonic plant was different.
One had to destroy its monster core before they could kill the other party.
Hearing this, the Elm King on the side was anxious.
Andrew now knew the way to kill it, which meant that it couldn’t live anymore.
It roared with its spiritual power, “No… You’re the Ultimate of the human race. There’s an agreement between the Ultimate powerhouses that they can’t attack monsters below the Ultimate realm. You dare kill me? Are you going to cause a war between the Ultimates?”
Boom!
Clayton’s spiritual power shook.
It directly shattered the Elm King’s spiritual power.
The Elm King seemed to have suffered a backlash, as it immediately fell limp to the ground.
Its thick and hard branches were as powerless as cotton.
Boom!
The moment it fell, the earth shook once again.
The dust on the ground flew into the sky, forming a dust cloud.
Clayton waved his sleeve and sneered. “It’s just a small ninth-grade demonic plant, yet it dares to shout at me. I’m just giving some instructions to my juniors. When did I make a move?”
He said to Andrew, “The demonic core of this demonic plant is hidden in one of the branches…”
As he said that, he touched the branch with his spiritual power.
Andrew was overjoyed.
He went forward and chopped the branch open.
He directly pulled out the demon core.
“Ding!”
“You have killed a ninth-grade demonic beast. Reward: +50,000 strengthening points.”
“Ding!”
“You have received 100,000 strengthening points.”
Two system notifications sounded one after another.
This made Andrew unable to help but be stunned for a moment.
He was indeed shocked.
“Didn’t they say that the life force of a demonic plant is very strong? How come it died just after I removed its monster core?
“Could it be?!
“This big elm tree is also at the pseudo-ninth-grade realm?”
…
What a piece of trash.
Clayton looked at Andrew’s appearance.
He didn’t want to answer this question at all.
In today’s world, the strongest experts wouldn’t make a move.
They would only act as a deterrent.
A ninth-grade expert was considered the most powerful existence on Earth.
Any ninth-grade expert could guard an area.
But now, Andrew had given them a fake-ninth-grade title. If those ninth-grade experts who hadn’t comprehended the power of concept heard this, they would definitely be angered to death.
“Andrew!” Clayton said, “You should know that any demonic plant is extremely valuable.
“This is because their bodies will give birth to the life essence liquid. The effect of the life essence liquid on the warriors refining the golden body is as good as the golden body fragments—”
Halfway through his words, Clayton suddenly realized that something was wrong with the other party.
“Oh?
“Life essence liquid?”
Andrew’s spiritual power swept over and found that there was indeed some “life essence liquid” hidden in the huge tree trunk.
It was just that…
There was no tool.
He couldn’t take it with him.
He looked at the storage ring he had gotten from the unknown ninth-grade warrior of the Heavenly God Sect.
