Practice begins with a fisherman

Of course, the ghosts and ghosts have the advantage in numbers after all. At the beginning of the battle, the eight monks all fell into the disadvantaged, especially Zhao Shoushou and Hu Jingzhi, who lacked powerful means of attack. Moved to the right to barely support it.

However, with the passage of time, after initially adapting to the attacking methods of ghosts and ghosts, the monks of the sixth team began to counterattack little by little from the defense, trying to control the situation of the battle.

The first to suffer should undoubtedly be the ghost soldiers with the largest number (equivalent to the Qi refining period), under the effect of spiritual weapons, it can be said that they will die when they touch them, and they will be injured when they are rubbed.

In the battle with ghosts, the most difficult thing for him to deal with is undoubtedly the occasional appearance of the ghost howling technique, which specializes in spiritual consciousness, and it makes him have a splitting headache every time.

Fortunately, this special spirit technique seems to be a relatively rare and difficult noble spirit technique for ghost soldiers. Even if it appears occasionally, it does not hurt him too much.

"Mr. Zhao, especially a cultivator who only takes beatings but never fights back? Let's try a certain person's Heavenly Fire Magical Talisman." In the gap between a ghost attack, he finally got a chance to fight back.

The Tiantian fire talisman in the second level is also the fire attribute talisman he is most familiar with. It was bought at a high price in the gourd Lingdao Fang City before departure.

With the improvement of his cultivation base, the occasions and opportunities to use it are becoming rarer and rarer, but it is the right time to use it here today. As soon as the two magic talismans are activated, the raging fire has already burned away to the surrounding ghosts.

The mid-level spirit talismans of the second level may not cause much damage to ghost soldiers of the same level or higher strength, but for low-level ghost soldiers and ghost soldiers, there is no way to hide. Neighing and screaming, it turned into ghost beads and fell to the ground.

"The array here is three pieces of gloomy wood, no wonder it can attract so many ghosts"

Chapter 422

The ghost orb in the ghost soldier's body is basically equivalent to the demon pill in the sea beast's body, but after condensing almost all the yin energy in the ghost soldier's body, it looks more pure.

In the realm of self-cultivation, its scope of use is not wide, except for some monks who practice yin attribute skills, it can only be used in the refining of some special talisman seals.

It's just that because the source is also scarce, the market in the market is considered extensive, and the price is basically comparable to that of the same level of demon pills.

As for the gloomy wood, there are very few. This kind of spiritual plant has very strict requirements on the environment. It must have a Yin-type spiritual vein above the second level, and there are a large number of ghosts and ghosts living within a thousand miles. Only by continuously providing special ghost energy can we survive.

There is no difference between the gloomy wood less than 800 years old and ordinary anti-wood. Only the gloomy wood over [-] years old will gradually inspire the special attributes of gloomy wood.

This also means that a gloomy tree needs at least 800 years of growth before it can initially transform from anti-wood to spiritual wood. If any conditions are not met during the growth process, this special spiritual plant will slowly wither.

Compared with the narrow scope of use of soul-attracting beads, in addition to attracting ghosts, gloomy wood can also be used to refine spiritual weapons, the most famous of which is the symbolic spiritual weapon of the Ghost Control Sect.

The Ghost Control Sect is a sect that specializes in exorcising ghosts. It uses the Soul Rescue Tower as a place for ghosts to rest and rest, and another task is to attract ghosts to capture.

In the ghost control sect, these ghosts are made into ghost pills by special means, which can be used to assist the growth of ghosts in the soul suppression tower, and can also be traded as a kind of spiritual thing.

There is an ancestor in the mid-Yuanying stage in the Ghost Control Sect, and there are also a lot of great supernatural powers in the Jindan stage. According to common sense, they should have a place in the cultivation world.

It's a pity that their number is too rare after all. On the one hand, the number of monks with Yin Linggen is small, and on the other hand, they are restricted by the gloomy wood.

Once there is no gloomy wood in the refining process of the soul suppressing tower, no matter what method is used to replace it, it will only barely meet the conditions for the survival of ghosts, which is equivalent to a simple storage bag.

It is precisely because of the sect's tireless search and large consumption that the price of gloomy wood is always quite high. Some high-quality, old gloomy trees can even be traded directly with the Yugui sect in exchange for some relatively precious spiritual material.

The quality of the gloomy wood that can be used as a second-tier high-grade large array weapon is obviously beyond doubt, and under the nourishment of a lot of yin and ghost energy, its quality not only does not decrease at all, but even improves a little bit.

A piece of gloomy wood can at least be exchanged for a bottle of high-quality second-level top-grade elixir in the hands of Yuguizong, and its value is beyond doubt.

Therefore, when the gloomy wood was unintentionally discovered, the monks present subconsciously strengthened the output of attack power in their hands, and the distribution of spoils after each battle was determined according to the performance in the battle. More specifically, it was through hunting ghosts during the battle. The quantity and quality of soul are determined.

Especially in the current pure battle with ghosts and ghosts, whoever can hunt more and higher quality ghosts can obviously take the initiative in the follow-up links.

Especially when the heavy treasure is in front of you, it is like hanging a fresh carrot in front of the old donkey pulling the mill, which can generate a great driving force.

As I said before, although these ghosts and ghosts rely on their numerical advantage to take the initiative, after the monks launched a counterattack, the arrogant ghosts and ghosts quickly turned into soul-attracting beads and fell on the ground. on the ground.

Of course, this does not mean that this battle is quite easy. It is inevitable to suffer some trauma during the battle. Fortunately, during the two years of exploring the Spirit Island base camp, he once found a second-level high-grade weapon refiner help.

Using the golden tortoise shell of the second-tier top-grade yellow-throated terrapin as the main material, it is refined into a genuine second-tier top-grade defensive spiritual weapon, which has resisted the attacks of ghosts several times at critical moments in battle.

The price he paid was the second-tier mid-grade seven-star tortoise shell used in divination that he had obtained in Baowu. Although Zhao Shoushou felt a little heartbroken, he also understood the importance of a suitable defensive spiritual weapon.

The quality of this second-tier top-grade yellow-throated tortoise shield dedicated to defense is unquestionable. It is an upper-class existence among the same level, and if there is no accident, it can be supported until it condenses the golden core.

It is precisely because of the existence of the yellow-throated tortoise shield that Zhao Shoushou was able to have almost no troubles in the battle. In the later battles, the latecomers took the lead and killed two ghost soldiers who were equivalent to late-stage monks .

This battle lasted about an hour, and when the last ghost turned into a soul-attracting bead, the monks of the sixth team were exhausted one by one.

"Our luck is good. There are four dark woods in the big formation. In addition, all the soul-attracting beads are divided into four piles of similar value. The top four monks who kill the most ghosts get the dark woods, and the last four "Cultivator's Soul Orb"

"No.1 Liu Hongyuan killed eight ghost pawns, including three peak ghost pawns, No.2 No. 3 killed eight ghost pawns, two peak ghost pawns, No.4 No. 5 killed six ghost pawns, ghost pawns Two pawns at the peak, No. 5 No. [-] kills five ghost pawns, two ghost pawns at the peak, No. [-] No. [-] kills five ghost pawns, one ghost pawn at the peak." When he said No. [-], Liu Hongyuan had stopped. down.

All the remaining monks got were soul-attracting orbs of similar value, and there was no need to continue comparing them. However, when the last place was announced, the corners of their mouths turned up, but it was difficult to hide their surprise.

The distribution of the spoils went smoothly. After a cup of tea, Zhao Shoushou put a piece of gloomy wood into the storage bag with satisfaction, and continued to move forward with the sixth team.

With the deepening of the cave, this place is used as the resting place of the formation master, and there are three second-level top-grade spirit formations. With the full cooperation and close cooperation of the eight monks, there is no danger.

The treasures obtained are spiritual materials of related attributes, and basically every monk is allocated some more or less, which is quite obvious for the encouragement of monks.

It wasn't until the fourth day of entering the cave that the eight members of the sixth team entered the real core area of ​​the cave, and it was completely different from what they had imagined.

"Cangdan Pavilion, Formation Room, Living Room, Spirit Beast Room, Miscellaneous Room" The whole hall is empty, only five solitary rooms are distributed in different positions.

The functions of these rooms can be clearly understood through the names, the most important of which should be the Tibetan Alchemy Pavilion and the Formation Room.

The former should be used to store the treasures accumulated by the owner of this place for many years, and the latter is used to refine various formation flags or spirit formation materials.

Zhao Shoushou could clearly feel that the Cangdan Pavilion was the common goal of the eight monks of the sixth team, and they had been staring eagerly at it.

Chapter 423 The Real Killing Move of the Array Master

Although exploring this formation mage cave is a mission from the elders' council, for monks, only genuine treasures are the most moving.

All the storages are within easy reach, and the most important one is of course the Tibetan Alchemy Pavilion which contains real treasures, which even Liu Hongyuan cannot avoid.

"Target Zangdan Pavilion, let's go." Only a decisive voice was heard, and the monks of the sixth team went to the first room on the right.

According to common sense, after breaking through the barriers of the four second-tier high-grade spirit arrays, there should be no other traps here.

Coupled with the temptation of heavy treasures, the eight monks in the sixth team, including Zhao Shoushou, were still vigilant, but they were inevitably a bit slack.

I didn’t encounter any risks on the way into the Tibetan Alchemy Pavilion, and everything seemed to be a matter of course. When I saw the neat rows of shelves dedicated to storing different treasures, the eyes of all the monks burst into eager light. The panting voice can't help but become a lot louder.

There are four rows of two-story special wooden frames in the small Buddhist scriptures pavilion. The first wooden frame at the entrance stores all middle-grade spirit stones that exude a seductive light. There are tens of thousands of spirit stones in a daze. In front of his eyes, who can remain indifferent?

Although the weight of spiritual stones in transactions has gradually decreased with the improvement of monks' cultivation, they are still the only hard currency in the cultivation world, and some common spiritual objects can be purchased in large quantities.

The most important point is that in the rightmost direction on the upper level of the wooden frame, the light emitted by more than ten fist-sized spirit stones is obviously superior. It will only be used at the trade fair of the Jindanqi ancestor.

For a monk in the Foundation Establishment period, the pure spiritual power contained in it is at least equivalent to three second-order top-grade spirit pills for the improvement of cultivation, and its preciousness is beyond doubt.

Compared with the first full wooden shelf, the treasures on the second wooden shelf immediately after it are much sparser, which does not affect its value.

On the first floor are array flags. There are about fifteen sets from the second-tier low-tier to the second-tier top-tier. Different types can correspond to different environments, and each set is the best among the same tiers.

There are only five kinds of spiritual materials on the second floor, but they are quite partial. None of the eight monks present knew the details of them, and they should be some more important spiritual materials for a craftsman.

On the third wooden frame are elixir and panacea contained in jade boxes. Everyone's eyes are fixed on a dark black jade bottle in the center, on which there are only three words: Tianma Blood.

The blood of Tianma is actually the blood essence of Tianma, which is taken from the body of a relatively rare second-order high-grade spirit beast, Tianma. It contains rich heat, and once it is evenly applied on the body of a monk, it can make the whole body in a rather boiling state. state.

The most critical point is that it has a certain auxiliary effect on the condensed golden elixir. Although its effect is quite small, it is still a treasure that can be encountered but not sought after.

The reason why the monks present are willing to take risks is to condense the golden core?Now that the real treasure has appeared, how can the monks restrain their desires?

Stored on the fourth wooden frame are some spirit weapons of different types, attributes, types, and functions. Normally, they might become the core of the eight monks' contention. Overshadowed.

Although the monks of the sixth team are all newly promoted monks in the late stage of foundation establishment, and there is still a long distance from Jindan, but this does not affect the sincerity in their hearts.

"Tianma's blood essence is less than five or six drops, and more than twenty drops. If luck is not bad, we can all share some. There is no need to worry. We should work together to sort out all the treasures." As the team leader Liu Hongyuan spoke out in time to stop a possible civil strife.

And quickly urged the monks to start sorting out the treasures in pairs, but unfortunately they didn't know that this was a trap that could easily separate the monks present.

After losing the advantage of joining forces against the enemy, they are just the most ordinary foundation-building seventh-floor monks, and their personal combat effectiveness is not too outstanding.

Zhao Shoushou and Hu Jingzhi were in charge of the first wooden frame for storing spirit stones. A large number of spirit stones fell into their respective storage bags accurately under the sweep of spirit power.

Their eyes and attention were never here, and they were staring at Liu Hongyuan and No. [-] monk who were in charge of the third wooden frame motionlessly. It is also the same performance.

Just at this time, I don't know what kind of mechanism was touched, the wooden frame in front of me disappeared instantly, replaced by a fiery red sky, surrounded by boundless spiritual fire, burning towards Zhao Shoushou's place little by little. The position is close, as if it is going to be burnt.

Hu Jingzhi, who was originally quite close, also disappeared at the moment of this change, and there was no trace of any other life around him except for the crackling sound of burning fire.

The monk who was in charge of cleaning up the other three wooden frames at the same time also encountered the same situation, the only difference was that the formations they encountered were different.

In fact, this is also the final arrangement of the formation master. All the treasures are gathered here. The monks who are able to enter this place focus all their eyes on the treasures. On a wooden frame, on top of the most valuable treasures.

No monk can escape this momentary change. Once he falls into the formation, perhaps the secret of the cave can continue to be kept.

However, Zhao Shoushou obviously didn't know what the formation master's thinking was, or he didn't want to know it now, because it wouldn't help the current situation.

"Water and fire are mutually restraining. I never thought that there would be a day when I would fall into the raging fire in the overseas cultivation world. Wouldn't it be a big joke in the world? Extinguishing" As the spiritual fire approached, the surrounding temperature continued to rise, and Zhao Shoushou felt as if he was in a fire. sea ​​of ​​flames.

As a pure water attribute monk, how could he not be prepared at all?A large amount of unary heavy water spewed out from a special jade bottle.

As the water and fire stalemate and annihilate each other, a large amount of white gas floats in the air, soaking the surroundings into a dense white spiritual power.

Zhao Shoushou took this opportunity to find some possible flaws by observing the fluttering of the white spiritual energy. No spiritual formation can be natural, no matter how ingeniously it is arranged, there will always be a little stagnation in the operation of spiritual power.

In addition, taking advantage of this opportunity of consuming each other, Zhao Shoushou's spiritual consciousness shot with all his strength, hoping to find some traces of formation foundations. For a monk like Zhao Shoushou who has little knowledge about formations, the only way to get out of trouble There is one and only one goal, which is to control violence with violence.

And breaking the foundation to weaken its power little by little is undoubtedly one of the most effective ways.

Chapter 424

Since the Tibetan Alchemy Pavilion was the last resort left by the formation master before he sat down, it was naturally not easy to deal with it. The temperature and power of the raging fire around him were constantly burning and increasing.

As Zhao Shoushou's cultivation base improved, the quality of the one-yuan heavy water was also improving simultaneously, but it was ultimately limited by the natural grade. During the confrontation between the two sides, they continued to retreat and dissipate. According to his estimation, it could only support a stick of water at most. Xiang's time is all it takes, which is also forcing him to open up the situation as soon as possible.

The monks who were in charge of cleaning up the other three wooden frames were also in different formations almost at the same time, and the most powerful one was Liu Hongyuan's frozen formation.

Although the water and ice belong to the same origin, when the strength of the big formation has enough advantages, the monk is likely to become a vivid ice sculpture.

Liu Hongyuan can serve as the captain of the sixth expedition team, so his strength should not be underestimated. At this time, he is crazily brandishing a second-level high-grade sledgehammer-shaped spiritual weapon in his hand, trying to break through the formation with strength.

The other two formations are also second-tier high-grade spiritual formations with different attributes, but judging from the current situation, it is obviously unrealistic for the eight monks to break through the formations and break out after they are separated.

Among them, the most tragic one was of course No. [-] cultivator who followed Liu Hongyuan and fell into the frozen formation for thousands of miles. Originally, his strength was considered to be among the best in the same rank, but there was still a certain gap between him and the squad leader.

Now that he appeared under the siege of the same formation, he was naturally in the worst situation. Under the attack of the boundless wind and snow, the blood in his body seemed to have stopped.

"I was lucky at first, but now I can only pray that I won't turn into an ice sculpture." The No. [-] monk said out of breath. After a frantic attack, not only had no effect, but consumed more than half of the mana in his dantian.

Not to mention the changes in the other three formations, Zhao Shoushou, who was in the sea of ​​flames at this time, could be said to have reached a very dangerous moment.

The raging fire, which has turned into a crimson flame, is advancing little by little but quite firmly. Under the illumination and transpiration of the flame, his body has white breath continuously appearing on his head, and his face has changed from the original flush. It turned pale, which was obviously caused by the excessive consumption of mana in the dantian.

The one-element heavy water that could support it for a period of time is also losing ground after losing the source of replenishment. Rootless water cannot last.

The original confident look on Zhao Shoushou's face had disappeared without a trace, and after feeling the threat to his life safety, a rare look of panic appeared on his face.

Zhao Shoushou, who originally had a certain contempt for formations, only now understood the reason for the scarcity of formation masters in the cultivation world.

"In the future, we will definitely need to spare a certain amount of time to make up for the common sense of formation knowledge, and we must not repeat today's mistakes." This is Zhao Shoushou's heartfelt feelings and lessons.

I don't want to have a good understanding of the formation, but I want to be able to deal with similar situations again in the future. If there is a chance, some treasures with good quality that are good for breaking the formation also need to be prepared in advance.

With the improvement of cultivation base, the environment that one may face in the future will become more and more complicated. The formations that were rarely encountered before may become commonplace, especially after joining the expedition team, this is particularly important.

At this time, Zhao Shoushou couldn't slack off in the slightest. He had to go all out to find the possible shortcomings of this flame formation as soon as possible, and make use of them, so as to break out of the encirclement as soon as possible.

"Blood is the medium, soul is the medium, blood essence and soul talisman, order" I saw the complexion on Zhao Shoushou's face changing between bluish and white, and a stream of blood essence gushed out directly from the center finger of his left hand.

This blood essence is obviously different from ordinary blood. There is a kind of blue-gold in the blood red, which is the most precious trace of blood essence accumulated in the dantian for many years.

Every ten years or every time when the cultivation base is upgraded to a small level, five drops of green-gold blood essence will be accumulated. Today, in order to escape the control of this large formation, it can be regarded as a real blood.

The Essence Blood Soul Talisman is a special magic talisman recorded in the "Congealing Water Jue" that was handed down in ancient times. Although I have a certain understanding of it before, I have never had the opportunity to use it.

This talisman has only one function, it can assist the monks to find the poor connection in the closed space, mark it, and then concentrate on breaking out of the formation in one fell swoop.

A full cast of the talisman needs twenty drops of blue-gold blood essence. If you can't get some Tianma blood essence that helps coagulate the golden core, you will be at a real loss.

Even if everything goes well, it will take at least 20 years of penance to make up for the essence and blood consumed today.

The Essence Blood Soul Talisman was actually one of Zhao Shoushou's last reliances. After entering the siege of the big formation, although he had never found a suitable opportunity, he was still not too flustered.

If you pay, you will gain. The effect of the Essence and Blood Soul Talisman is undoubtedly good. Before, almost all means were used, and there was no gain at all. Now the situation we are facing has changed almost instantly.

The Essence and Blood Soul Talisman just changed its direction several times in the void, and quickly turned into five, sticking firmly like a dog skin plaster. Not far from Zhao Shoushou, under the blood red dip, the three formation bases , two space transformation nodes are revealed.

The moon-breaking shovel and the water-dividing fork in Zhao Shoushou's hands, who followed closely behind, attacked different targets. With the collision and contact between the spiritual weapon and the formation base, the originally difficult-to-shake formation weakened slightly in an instant.

In fact, the strength of the formation hidden in the hidden alchemy pavilion alone is not too outstanding. After all, it is subject to the scope of the formation, which has certain natural limitations.

The reason why no progress has been made is that there has been no clue. Under its violent attack, with the continuous destruction of the foundation of the formation, the power of the entire formation is rapidly decreasing. , goes out with an attitude visible to the naked eye.

The connection between the two spaces, which was not very clear in the air, became more and more obvious. Seeing that the time had come, Zhao Shoushou didn't hesitate, and the power he had accumulated for a long time burst out suddenly.
