Dual Cultivation: A Carefree Journey Through Another World, the Empress Falls into My Hands

Upon hearing Chu Yunfan's words, a look of difficulty clearly appeared in the eyes of the Gold-Eating Rat King.

It hesitated for a moment before answering:

“Master, with my strength, leading the Gold-Eating Rat swarm to deal with ordinary fourth-tier demonic beasts is no problem.”

But the premise is that we are a group of rats, taking on a single beast.

However, if I take you out, it might attract an attack from other fourth-tier demonic beasts.

"The outcome might be hard to predict then!"

Upon hearing the Gold-Eating Rat King's initial answer, Chu Yunfan nodded in satisfaction.

But as he listened, he became disappointed.

"That's right. If so many Gold-Eating Rats rush out together, the commotion will be huge, and they'll become easy targets for many monsters."

Thinking of this, Chu Yunfan closed his eyes, rubbed his throbbing temples, and prepared to think of other solutions.

Just as Chu Yunfan opened his eyes again, he suddenly noticed countless small holes of all sizes in the cave.

These small holes were drilled by the gold-eating rats in order to devour the metal contained in the rocks.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck Chu Yunfan, and his eyes shone brightly as he stared intently at the Gold-Eating Rat King, asking:

"How's your digging skill?"

Upon hearing this question, the Gold-Eating Rat King answered Chu Yunfan without hesitation this time.

"Master, our Gold-Eating Rats' burrowing skills are absolutely top-notch, even in the entire rat kingdom!"

When he said this, the Gold-Eating Rat King held his head high and puffed out his chest, looking quite proud.

Upon seeing its reaction, a smile instantly appeared on Chu Yunfan's face.

"Alright! Then you guys dig the tunnel for me!"

Dig a passage leading out of the Azure Demon Mountain Range!

As the saying goes, dragons beget dragons, phoenixes beget phoenixes, and rats are born knowing how to dig holes.

The rat's ability to dig holes goes without saying.

With its incredibly sharp teeth, the gold-eating rat is exceptionally good at digging holes.

However, Chu Yunfan, who was used to direct confrontation, did not initially think of this method of digging a tunnel to escape.

It wasn't until I accidentally saw the countless small holes of all sizes on the ground just now that I suddenly realized the gold-eating rat's ability.

Thus, the ingenious idea of ​​having the gold-eating rat dig a hole came about.

However, to Chu Yunfan's surprise, the Gold-Eating Rat King brought him a huge surprise.

"Master, there's no need for that."

We came here by digging our way through the second-tier monster area of ​​the Azure Demon Mountain Range.

If you want to leave, there are ready-made passages available.

With your abilities, getting out of the second-tier monster area will be a piece of cake!

Upon hearing these words from the Gold-Eating Rat King, the joy on Chu Yunfan's face instantly became as thick as a bowl of ancient chicken soup, indescribable.

After a moment, he recovered from his immense surprise and murmured:

"It's truly a case of 'after all the mountains and rivers seem to have no way out, a new village appears amidst the willows and flowers'!"

What was a life-or-death situation just moments ago was unexpectedly resolved in the blink of an eye.

Moreover, the gold-eating rats' ability to dig burrows is not only useful for escaping; it should have many other applications in the future.

Subduing this Gold-Eating Rat King was truly a stroke of good fortune!

After sighing, Chu Yunfan immediately asked the Gold-Eating Rat King to lead him to the tunnel leading to the second-tier monster area.

What Chu Yunfan didn't know was that when he followed the Gold-Eating Rat King into the tunnel and left the fourth-tier monster area...

There was another person who also felt relieved, as if he had been liberated.

This person was none other than Shangguan Wan, who had been secretly observing Chu Yunfan.

To be honest, Shangguan Wan had guessed many possibilities, but she never expected that Chu Yunfan would escape the fourth-tier monster area in this way.

Regardless, Chu Yunfan, with his Martial Master cultivation, managed to subdue a pack of Gold-Eating Rats comparable to fourth-tier demonic beasts. Moreover, the rat king of this pack was a rare third-tier mutated Gold-Eating Rats.

This already demonstrates that Chu Yunfan is no ordinary person.

At least she herself couldn't do that.

"If you are a true dragon, we will meet again if fate allows!"

A soft sigh echoed in mid-air, and then Shangguan Wan's figure vanished silently from the spot.

……

In a remote corner of the second-tier demon beast area in the Azure Demon Mountain Range, the ground suddenly collapsed, revealing a hole the size of a human body.

Immediately afterwards, Chu Yunfan's body jumped out of the cave.

Looking at the familiar scenery around him, Chu Yunfan instantly knew that he had returned to the second-tier monster area.

Chu Yunfan breathed a sigh of relief, finally free from the tension of facing a fourth-tier demonic beast at any moment.

Afterwards, Chu Yunfan ordered the Gold-Eating Rat King to cover up the entrance to the cave and then left.

However, Chu Yunfan did not leave the second-tier monster area directly, but went to another place.

This place is the same hidden valley where Chu Yunfan discovered the Transformation Fruit.

"It's been so long, I wonder if the Transformation Fruit has ripened yet?"

As Chu Yunfan traveled, he secretly pondered to himself.

In fact, with his current talent, he doesn't need the Transformation Fruit to break through to the Martial Grandmaster realm.

However, there are many people in this world who lack talent and cannot break through to the Martial Grandmaster realm through their own efforts.

Therefore, even if one doesn't need the Transformation Fruit, it is still a treasure of extremely high value.

For some cultivators who are stuck at the peak of the Martial Master realm and unable to break through, its value even surpasses those higher-level rare treasures, making it worth exchanging everything for.

Moreover, even if they don't use it for trading, there might be people among their relatives and friends who need the Transformation Fruit.

Therefore, Chu Yunfan has always been thinking about the Huayuan Fruit in this valley.

However, what Chu Yunfan didn't expect was that when he arrived at that valley...

What appeared before him was not a second-tier peak giant python, but a third-tier cyan giant python with a body length of nearly twenty meters.

"Oh no! Could it be that the Transformation Fruit had already ripened and been ruined by this beast?!"

Realizing this, Chu Yunfan's expression turned cold. Without waiting for the giant blue python to launch an attack, he took the initiative to charge towards it with his sword.

Previously, when Chu Yunfan was at the peak of the early stage of Martial Master, he was able to contend with a mutated third-tier wolf king.

Now, his cultivation has reached the peak of the Martial Master realm, and his strength has increased exponentially. Dealing with a giant blue python that has just broken through to the third rank is naturally a piece of cake for him.

However, because his cultivation had broken through too quickly before, Chu Yunfan deliberately used this cyan python as a practice subject in order to familiarize himself with his current strength. That's why he didn't kill it directly, but instead engaged in a stalemate with the cyan python.

Of course, it was less a form of torture and more a one-sided brutal killing of the blue python by Chu Yunfan.

It turned out that after Chu Yunfan broke through to the peak of the Martial Master realm, the power within his body increased exponentially. With the support of this powerful force, the speed at which he drew his sword also increased significantly.

Previously, even after cultivating the Earth-rank beginner sword technique "Thousand Hundred Swords" to perfection, he could only unleash a maximum of one hundred sword strikes in an instant.

But now, with his cultivation greatly improved, he can do this very easily.

Moreover, as time went on, he continued to improve and soon achieved the ability to wield 180 swords in an instant.

Moreover, each of the 180 sword strikes landed precisely on the spot where the scales of the giant blue python met.

The point where the scales meet is precisely where the blue python's defenses are weak.

Therefore, soon, countless blood holes appeared on the huge body of the blue python, staining its entire body blood red, making it look extremely miserable.

And this is the consequence of it stealing the Transformation Fruit.

Faced with Chu Yunfan's merciless slaughter, the cyan python also began to fight desperately, completely ignoring Chu Yunfan's impending attack. It directly approached Chu Yunfan's body and sprayed all the venom in its body at Chu Yunfan!
