Qingfeng’s eyes lit with joy as he said, “So it is underground.”
Qingfeng looked downwards to the opening on the ground and said, “Since you’ve hidden around for this long, stop hiding and come out.”
Waves of creeping sounds came from deep underground, and the sounds was especially natural, as numerous pieces of soil gathered together to form two rock men. The one on the left was the black rock man Qingfeng recognized, while the one on the right was a green rock man.
The green rock man was very tall, roughly three meters in height, more than twice the size of normal rock men, with a strong built, and his arms and legs were like water tanks. He unleashed wild energy as he stood there, and numerous cracks appeared on the ground.
The black rock man said to the green rock man, “It was this youth that just attacked me, you have to avenge me.”
The green rock man nodded and looked at Qingfeng coldly with disdain in his eyes.
Qingfeng looked at the green rock man before him and asked, “Are you the Rock Monarch?”
The green rock man shook his head and said, “I’m not the Rock Monarch. The Rock Monarch is dealing with other self-cultivators. I’m his general, and I’m in charging of killing you.”
Qingfeng was just wondering, because this green rock man before him wasn’t very powerful, so how could he rule over all the rock men? It turned out he wasn’t the Rock Monarch, and was only one of his generals.
The green rock man’s eyes filled with fury when he saw Qingfeng’s nonchalant attitude, as he said coldly, “I’m a seventh level monarch grade rock man, and I will kill you today.”
Qingfeng said coldly, “What a waste of words, we don’t know who will kill who yet.”
Qingfeng didn’t want to waste anytime, as he wanted to battle quickly. His left foot stomped heavily onto the ground and soared into the air. Immediately, he appeared before the green rock man.
The green rock man was terrified. He didn’t expect Qingfeng to be so fast, and he wasn’t something that he could block.
Qingfeng suddenly waved his right fist and charged towards the green rock man, and exploded the void. The fist immediately appeared above the green rock man’s head.
The green rock man’s face changed with shock in its eyes. He knew that he had underestimated this youth’s powers. He was far too strong, and his attacks frightened him.
The green rock man hurriedly activated his internal rock vital essence and shouted, “Rock Armour”, as a green suit of armor four meters in size appeared above its body.
The green armour was constructed with green granite, far more valuable than vital stones. It was as strong as diamonds and could block seventh-level monarch grade attacks.
Unfortunately, this green rock man was up against Qingfeng. His physical strength was demonic, as he was invincible amongst those in the same realm as him. The one fist immediately shattered the green armor and broke it into countless pieces.
Then his fist kept going, as it heavily clashed onto the green rock man’s head and shattered it along with its body.
Qingfeng with one fist killed the powerful green rock man, a general under the Rock Monarch.
The black rock man’s face changed, as its eyes filled with disbelief. It raised its rock fingers, pointed at Qingfeng, and said, “Demon, demon, you’re a demon. How could you kill my bigger brother in one punch?”
Qingfeng lightly smiled, looked at the black rock man and said, “Even if it was the Rock Monarch, I could still kill it, not to mention your bigger brother. I won’t let you get away this time.”
Qingfeng suddenly raised his right hand, and under the black rock man’s shocked eyes, he held it up by its neck and lifted it up in the air.
Bang!
Qingfeng’s hands forcefully grabbed and shattered the rock man’s body into countless pieces that fell all over the floor. Qingfeng had never given mercy to his enemies.
After Qingfeng killed the black rock man, he said, “Rock men are such a strange species. Rocks form them, and they can train in rock man tribal techniques like human self-cultivators. It’s astounding.”
The Peach Blossom She-devil explained on the side, “I’ve read in ancient books that the rock men are a powerful tribe, and they are controlled by the Rock Monarch. Legend has it that the Rock Monarch once acquired a saint level rock heart that can control other rock men. The giant green rock man you just killed was a giant rock puppet. Its body had a mark of the Rock Monarch inside it.”
To prove that the Peach Blossom She-devil was right, Qingfeng walked to the dead green rock man’s side, and by inspecting closely, he noticed a dull seal print on the shattered rock. The seal print wasn’t very significant, but Qingfeng still noticed it.
Qingfeng said to Black Puppy beside him, “Puppy, use your nose to smell this purple energy, and then we’ll look for the Rock Monarch.”
Black Puppy walked over and used its dog nose to smell the purple mark print, and then it said, “This must be the Rock Monarch energy. It’s underneath a tree five thousand meters to the north. Let’s go find the Rock Monarch now and kill it.”
Qingfeng led the others northwards five thousand meters away, and they moved at great speed. Along the way, they met many self-cultivators, but they were all fighting with rock men, as hundreds of thousands of rock men filled the entire mountain range.
What shocked Qingfeng was that, he hadn’t seen Huozhu Chi, Linglong Xue, Jun Po, and Ming Xie, those Emperors of the supreme dynasties. They seemed to have left this mountain range long ago, which surprised Qingfeng.
Could it be that the Rock Monarch had let them go, or they had defeated the Rock Monarch? Or else, the guardians of the points wouldn’t have let self-cultivators pass so easily.
Qingfeng clearly remembered, that their first point was the fire essence river, where he acquired the Saint’s fire essence that increased his Golden Flame to ten thousand degrees and increased his physique as well.
The second point of the sunlight bug king, but sadly the four supreme dynasties had killed those sunlight bugs, and they definitely had every right to the treasures inside.
This was now the third point, and Rock Monarch was its guardian. Qingfeng had to acquire the treasures of the Rock Monarch.
Qingfeng had a feeling that every point he passed, every guardian he killed, he would acquire relevant treasures there, and it might be the key to when they enter the Sun Monarch Tomb.
After Black Puppy led them for a while, Qingfeng and the others arrived underneath a massive ancient tree.
This ancient tree was far too tall of roughly one thousand or so meters, as it tore through the clouds. Its branches were ten or so feet wide, such that it would take ten or so people to wrap around it.
