Chapter 122: Battle of the Golden Rat

The few of them remained in a stalemate for a few minutes, and then they saw the golden-haired rat on the roof turned around and left the county government office. Although they were puzzled, the three of them had no intention of chasing it and turned around to go back to the room.

The moment they turned around, the three of them were shocked, because they saw that the dozen people who were sleeping inside had now turned into a dozen rats.

Zhou Chen saw that the power of these rat monsters had reached the ninth level. It was obvious that these rat monsters were the previous ninth-level warriors.

Zhou Chen was the first to react. He stretched out his two fingers and condensed the Fengyun Sword. Then he chopped the sword horizontally and killed these ninth-grade rat monsters. At the same time, the whole house collapsed under the power of this sword.

Afterwards, Zhou Chen quickly took the two of them to find a place to hide temporarily. Lord Xu said worriedly, "What happened just now? They clearly didn't have any moonlight, so why did they still turn into rat monsters? And our food is all in that room. Now we are completely out of food."

After hearing what he said, Zhou Chen took out ten kilograms of beast meat from his storage bag and threw it on the ground. These were the sixth-grade monster meats that Zhou Chen had stored before. At this time, there were still several hundred kilograms in his storage bag, enough for them to sustain for a while, but there was not much drinking water.

The three of them built a bonfire and roasted the meat and ate it. Zhou Chen and the other two were fine, but Lord Xu hadn't had a full meal for several days.

After eating and drinking, Zhou Chen remembered what happened before. "It seems that the Golden-Haired Rat deliberately led us out. After we went out, the Golden-Haired Rat must have done something to them, otherwise they would not have turned into monsters for no reason."

However, they had never seen such a situation before, and they didn't know what the reason was for a moment.

At this time, in the underground cave of the Golden-Haired Rat, after absorbing the Yang energy of those ninth-grade warriors, the Golden-Haired Rat's strength was greatly improved. At this time, his skills had reached one hundred and fifty years, and his injuries had been completely recovered. At this time, the cracks in the Heavenly Demon Pearl had also been completely repaired.

After a loud bang, the golden-haired rat broke through the ground and jumped out. Then seven or eight rat monsters quickly appeared behind him, saying, "Congratulations, ancestor."

"Hmph, it's time to settle the score with him."

Zhou Chen, who was practicing with his eyes closed in the room, suddenly heard footsteps, "Be careful, something is coming."

Leng Ningshuang and Lord Xu opened their eyes and came to Zhou Chen. The door slammed down and a large group of rats rushed in.

They had no time to think, Zhou Chen swung out the Fengyun Sword, and a dozen rat monsters rushing in front were directly chopped to death. However, there were a lot of rat monsters, not only at the gate, but also on the surrounding windows and roofs, there were rat monsters rushing towards the three people.

The Fengyun Sword was swung quickly, and a large number of rat monsters were killed instantly. Even the roof was cracked by the Fengyun Sword and then collapsed directly.

At the moment of collapse, Zhou Chen and the other two broke through the roof and jumped out. Although the Fengyun Sword was very powerful, it also consumed a lot of energy. Although Zhou Chen had seventy-five years of skills, he still had to save his energy to deal with the Golden-Haired Rat, and could not consume too much of it now.

Zhou Chen put away the Fengyun Sword, and at the same time the Demon-Suppressing Sword appeared in his hand. Zhou Chen also thought about attaching the demon patterns that were useless to him directly to Leng Ningshuang and the other person, so as to improve their combat effectiveness.

However, he did not do so because this was his secret. It was because of this that he had gotten into trouble with the Wang family of Qinghua County before, so Zhou Chen could not take the risk again.

Although these weak rat demons were huge in number, they still had no chance of winning against Zhou Chen and the other two. They could not hurt them at all and could only consume their fighting power.

At this time, the Golden-Haired Rat was standing in the dark observing the three people, "Why didn't the ancestor just kill them directly, but instead let these weak creatures go up to die?"
"Why feel bad? It's not like they died. At least they can help me consume their fighting power." An hour later, Zhou Chen and the other two finally killed the last rat demon. At this time, there was a small hill of rat demon corpses under their feet. Except for Zhou Chen, the other two were already exhausted and panting.

Just then the Golden-Haired Rat appeared in front of the three people. It was dressed in white and had white hair. It looked at the three people with a smile on its face.

Looking at the Golden-Haired Rat whose power has reached one hundred and fifty years, although he was a little panicked but could not show it, "You finally showed up."

"Haha, stop talking nonsense and prepare to die." The Golden-Haired Rat raised its hand and used a huge claw to grab the three people. Zhou Chen took a step forward and said, "You guys step back." The two of them did not act pretentiously and just stepped back.

Zhou Chen raised his hand and swung the Fengyun Sword. The five-meter-long sword directly chopped on the rat's claws, splitting them in half and the claws dissipated on the spot.

At the same time, Zhou Chen's Fengyun Sword was looming and seemed to be about to dissipate at any time. Zhou Chen once again infused his internal strength into it, and the Fengyun Sword solidified again.

The Golden-Haired Rat said to the rat demons behind him, "You go deal with those two people," and then he flashed and rushed towards Zhou Chen.

The Golden-Haired Rat slapped out his palm and the demonic power condensed on it. At the same time, the Fengyun Sword pierced his palm. The extremely sharp Fengyun Sword could not pierce his palm. At the same time, the Golden-Haired Rat roared, and the five-meter-long sword in front of Zhou Chen broke into countless pieces.

Seeing this, Zhou Chen calmed his mind and raised his sword to kill the golden-haired rat. The true energy in the Demon-Slaying Sword flowed and collided with the palm of the golden-haired rat. With the blessing of the true energy, the sharpness of the Demon-Slaying Sword was greatly improved.

But even so, the Golden-Haired Rat could not be hurt at all, because the Golden-Haired Rat's arms were also protected by demonic energy.

As the two men fought, demonic energy and sword energy scattered everywhere, and the surrounding houses were all destroyed, with clouds of smoke and dust rising. After the smoke and dust settled, Zhou Chen pressed a knife against the golden-haired rat's fist, and at the same time, the true energy in his body continued to spurt towards the golden-haired rat's body.

The same thing happened to the Golden-Haired Rat. The evil spirit in its body continued to surge towards Zhou Chen. Waves of air erupted from the place where the tip of the knife collided with the fist. The two of them were trying hard to fight with their internal strength.

Although Zhou Chen could still fight him to a draw at this point, he was familiar with the Golden-Haired Rat's strength and knew that he would not be able to outlast him if he continued like this.

Zhou Chen roared and a huge magic circle appeared behind him. The Golden-Haired Rat narrowed his eyes and stomped his feet, and two blood-red eyes appeared behind him.

The moment the tip of the white giant sword came out, Jinmaoshu also felt a hint of danger. The two blood-red eyes behind him immediately burst out with a destructive red light. A mist appeared not far behind Zhou Chen, and Leng Ningshuang and the others were trapped in the mist and unable to get out.

The rat demons had no intention of attacking and just trapped the two of them. The moment the red light appeared, the black fog was actually shot through. Leng Ningshuang and the other person who were in the fog also saw the red light for the first time.

Zhou Chen, who was at the front, was illuminated by the red light and felt extremely uncomfortable. He roared and stabbed the golden-haired rat with the giant sword.

I saw the red light quickly condensed into a shield in front of the Golden-Haired Rat. At this time, Zhou Chen also retracted the Demon-Suppressing Sword and used all his strength to activate the Swift Wind Sword.

The moment the Gale Sword pierced the shield, a sharp sword energy burst out.
