Chapter 2218: Chapter 2218: Medicine Amazes the World (Part 3)

The clash of weapons and the roars of demonic beasts intertwined amidst the flash of blades and swords, with blood occasionally splattering through the air, staining the ground red.

The numbers of humans and demonic beasts were about the same; neither side gained any advantage.

Both sides were bloodthirsty, willing to fight to the death.

Sand—

Sand Sand—

A strange sound emanated from the forest, but it was drowned out by the noise of battle, indistinct.

Until a demonic beast was kicked aside, landing at the edge, looking up to see a person standing in the bushes.

The person looked down at it, eyes cold, as if gazing at a dead object.

A human! And a female!

Humans and demonic beasts are sworn enemies!

You are dead!

Just as the beast intended to let out an ’ao’, the girl amidst the bushes lifted her foot, stepping on its face.

The beast’s ’ao’ turned into an ’a’.

Before the beast could even resist, a dark shadow loomed over it, pressing down heavily.

A black coffin flew out from the bushes, pinning down the beast.

The eerie thing was that the coffin landed quietly on the ground, without tipping at all.

Both battling humans and beasts paused simultaneously.

The scene was as if someone paused the frame.

All eyes focused on that girl standing beside the coffin.

This... what is happening?

A fair-skinned, beautiful girl with... a coffin? What kind of combination is this?

"Ao!"

It’s unclear which beast let out a cry first, then the beast closest to Chuzheng lunged forward.

"Watch out!"

Someone exclaimed in panic.

The girl standing beside the coffin remained unmoved, casually waving her hand; the beast instantly flew backward.

It crashed against a nearby tree trunk, which snapped with a crunch, collapsing with a rumble, kicking up a cloud of dust.

The crowd: "..." Damn!

The beasts: "..." Damn!

The girl flicked her hand, speaking slowly, "Let me finish something first, then we can fight."

Chuzheng’s move intimidated the beasts; they dared not attack again.

Humans immediately spoke, "Miss, may I ask who you are?"

Chuzheng’s gaze swept over them, "Do you have any demonic beast cores?"

Demonic beast cores?

Perhaps Chuzheng’s seriousness compelled someone to answer, "No... no, we do not."

Chuzheng was silent for a second, "None of you?"

They all shook their heads.

Demonic beast cores were not only rare but required purification by a Purification Demon Master; even if they had obtained cores in the past, they had none now.

Chuzheng: "..."

After finally finding people, why don’t they have any!!

Isn’t this messing with me?

Chuzheng felt the countdown over her head getting even more urgent.

Her gaze fell onto those beasts.

These beasts...

Should have spirit cores, right?

Chuzheng lightly tapped the coffin, forming a plan.

The beasts: "..."

Why does this human’s gaze seem strange?

-

One incense stick later.

Chuzheng fiercely stepped on a beast, forcing it to hand over its core.

The other beasts stood in a line, watching Chuzheng intently, with many already injured.

Humans stood on the other side, looking confused at the scene before them.

Who are we, where are we, what are we doing here?

Why is this girl so ruthless!?

The beast under Chuzheng’s foot lay without dignity, rolling its eyes grandly at Chuzheng.

Some beasts, with enough cultivation, could speak, but clearly, these couldn’t.

Thus they could only use their gaze to express: Dream on! Even if I die, I won’t give it to you.

At this moment, Chuzheng was unaware that beasts had a mindset of preferring death over allowing humans to profit.

So under her threat, the beast simply rolled its eyes and fainted.

Inspecting its body, there was no trace of a spirit core.

Chuzheng was somewhat lost.

Chuzheng casually grabbed the second one, which was even better, laying flat on the ground without her needing to prompt.

"Well... Miss, you... you won’t get spirit cores like this."

Someone timidly reminded her.

"Hmm?"

That person hurriedly explained to Chuzheng.

Despite the abundance of beasts, acquiring demonic beast cores was no easy feat.

Many beasts, when caught or defeated, preferred to destroy the core rather than leave it to humans.

Therefore, obtaining demonic beast cores demanded high technique.

One must defeat the beast while ensuring it doesn’t self-destruct its core.

Chuzheng: "..."

So difficult?

This is too much for this weak, helpless little poor thing!!

Chuzheng rolled up her sleeves.

How could a girl let such a small difficulty stop her.

Chuzheng clenched her wrist, glancing again at the waiting lambs.

Here I come!

The beasts: "..."

Why is there an unsettling feeling?

-

Humans watched numbly as Chuzheng knocked out the beasts like knocking radishes.

Isn’t she too fast?

Can she even be human?

The beasts didn’t even react before they were knocked out.

Chuzheng chased two beasts trying to escape, straying a bit from the coffin, her strength waning.

She quickly knocked out the last one, darting back to the coffin.

The coffin seemed like a health restore item; as she approached, her drained strength gradually recovered.

Chuzheng maintained a posture of cool elegance, leaning against the coffin to recover, while accepting the scrutiny of the crowd.

"Miss... may I ask, which sect do you belong to?" Being so formidable, surely she belongs to a major sect.

"..."

Honestly, I don’t know either.

I don’t know the origins of this body I have now.

All I know is it’s named Chen Yin.

Adhering to the principle of speaking less to avoid mistakes, Chuzheng decided to remain silent, maintaining a stern and mysterious visage.

[Miss, it’s going to double!] The King’s Account eagerly sounded.

Chuzheng remained unfazed, with so many lying on the ground, doubling would suffice.

The master is fearless!

[...] Damn!

Chuzheng seemingly heard a curse from the Bastard.

"Extract the spirit cores from them," Chuzheng pointed casually.

The one pointed to: "..."

This girl single-handedly defeated so many beasts; they felt... compelled to obey!

Someone immediately started extracting the cores.

Chuzheng watched, leaning against the coffin.

The rest had mixed expressions, varied thoughts, guessing the girl’s origins.

Chuzheng didn’t care about their scrutiny; she pondered... this body seemed quite formidable.

She hardly used Yin Xian earlier.

When she acted, a force appeared, enabling her to instinctively strike.

Yet the original owner in this body...

Alright, the original owner didn’t have the coffin.

Without the coffin, this body was merely a broken, sickly patient.

Chuzheng’s fingers stroked the edge of the coffin.

What does it say when a master like me drags around a coffin every day?

This is just unfair!

Chuzheng felt a surge of frustration, vexed enough to want to kick apart the coffin.

Her peripheral vision caught someone approaching, making Chuzheng restrain her impulse and glare at the person.

The person felt inexplicably fearful, "Miss, the cores are extracted." The demonic beast cores emitted a faint black mist, as if something ominous.

Chuzheng disdainfully selected three and tossed a bag to the person, "I’m buying these."

"???" What?

This girl’s brain isn’t malfunctioning, is it?

Aren’t these already yours?
