Practice begins with a fisherman

The final result is not too difficult to guess. It is nothing more than drawing big cakes to satisfy the hunger. The Spirit Island Alliance uses part of the profit as the price to calm the inner waves of some Jindan monks.

Of course, not all the monks' demands will be met, and this internal strife finally ended with the departure of the three Golden Core monks.

Of the three Jindan monks who left, two of them were pure casual cultivators who had no scruples. The remaining one recently received news that the spiritual island where the family was located was attacked by sea beasts and fell. Except for the juniors, almost the entire army was wiped out and suffered heavy casualties.

Angrily, he chose to leave decisively, which meant that for a period of time in the future, the monks could only be in a state of passive defense, until the arrival of the next batch of supporting monks, the severe situation faced could be alleviated.

Overseas comprehension circles have been developing for many years, so naturally there are more than 35 monks at the Golden Core stage, and those who appear here are only the first wave of monks recruited by the corresponding Spirit Island Alliance.

The main force of the monks is still distributed on large and small spiritual islands for defense. Of course, the same is true for sea beasts. Those who stay on the comprehensive spiritual islands and guard the core of the sea beast tide are also only a few of them.

If every beast tide wants to be resolved quickly, it should be a surprise attack at the beginning. If the delay is too long, more monks can be called to come, and the sea beast side will also quickly return to help.

If this place becomes a meaningless war of attrition, it will obviously be disadvantageous for the monks, and it will not be able to achieve the original expected goal.

Judging from the current situation, the outcome of the battle between the two sides mainly depends on two aspects. First, whether the second wave of main support from the cultivator's side can reach Spirit Island in the shortest time; Under the counterattack step by step, ensure the safety of the established patrol line already occupied.

It can be predicted that the tasks of Zhao Shoushou and other foundation-building monks will be quite arduous and dangerous in the future. Unfortunately, their strength is limited and there is no room for resistance.

The golden core stage monks can choose to withdraw decisively when faced with a situation that may endanger their own safety. The foundation building stage monks obviously do not have this qualification. For them, the only choice is to fight hard and wait for the next counterattack from the monk side. .

Of course, in order to reverse the current low morale, the Spirit Island Alliance will definitely adopt some incentive measures. There must be a brave man under the reward, which is also applicable to the cultivation world.

"I hope someone like Zhao can gain something from the sea beast's counterattack, and encounter some high-value sea beasts and trophies." Zhao Shoushou didn't have much fear of the next battle.

This is what he really thinks in his heart. He has always been fearless about danger. As long as there is a treasure worth paying for in front of him, Zhao Shoushou has always been merciless and full of infinite courage.

There is even a tinge of joy in my heart about the current situation. After all, in the previous battle, less than half of the ninth-level monks who were qualified to compete with him fell, and they will compete in the next battle. The power will be much less.

The only reason for taking the risk to come here this time is to collect natural materials and earthly treasures that are conducive to improving the cultivation level and the success rate of congealing golden elixir.

As a casual cultivator, only after successfully condensing the golden core can he stand out in the cultivation world. He has come step by step to the present, and condensing the core has become an obsession in his heart.

Of course, the most important thing for Zhao Shoushou at present is to repair his injuries as soon as possible, to ensure that his energy and spirit are at the peak, and to ensure that his combat power can explode instantly when encountering an enemy.

Although there are not many underground quiet rooms in the center that are specially used to recuperate injuries, a monk with a ninth floor of foundation building is still qualified to occupy one of them.

In order to recover from his injuries as soon as possible and restore his own cultivation, Zhao Shoushou did not hesitate to exchange a high price of three points from the Spirit Island Alliance for a second-tier high-grade healing holy medicine, the Millennium Snow Lotus Pill.

The refining of this special elixir requires only one main material, that is, the thousand-year-old yacon fruit. Each yacon fruit can be refined into a panacea with enough spiritual power, and the difficulty of refining is not too high. big.

The biggest difficulty is the difficulty of finding the thousand-year-old yacon. This special elixir can only grow on some [-]-meter snow-capped mountains that are full of spiritual power and have thousands of years of ice.

Three points are equivalent to killing six second-tier high-grade sea beasts with high combat power, and the effect is naturally quite good. After refining the elixir, bursts of special power spread all over his body, making his whole body in a state of turmoil. In the warm state, there are not only some obvious injuries that have not yet healed.

Under the action of the Millennium Snow Lotus Pill, some hidden wounds that had been lurking in the depths of the body that were not easy to find were also revealed one by one.

Without this snow lotus pill, these hidden injuries may not have any effect on weekdays, or even be aware of its existence, but once they encounter some critical moments, they are likely to come out to make trouble, such as from the establishment of the foundation to the golden core. The critical moment of the leap.

This miraculous state lasted for as long as five days, and the injuries that originally required a lot of time to heal bit by bit were quite simple to recover at this time, including the bone of the left arm that was almost broken in two during the battle. in this way.

"This elixir is worth the money, and the condition at this time can be described as unprecedentedly good." Zhao Shoushou jumped up easily, ready to return to the subsidence area guarded by the No.18 team as soon as possible.

After the previous battle, there were only five monks left in the team of eight monks, including Zhao Shoushou. Two of the monks were also recently sent by the Spirit Island Alliance to support them.

From the current situation of the No.18 team, it can also be seen that in the previous battle, the monks suffered a lot of casualties.

In fact, the entire monk's defense zone is barely holding on at this time. Although the Spirit Island Alliance has introduced many incentives one after another, under the threat of death, the effect is quite pitiful.

Where will this battle about the core of the sea beast tide go next? There are two almost completely opposite endings, which will have a strong impact on the future direction of the entire cultivation world.

It's a pity that judging from the several small-scale battles after the battle, the situation faced by the monks is not optimistic. At the beginning of landing on Lingdao, one-third of the time spent trying to occupy the established patrol line The fall, and naturally many monks fell with it, which made it even more difficult for the monks who were already at a disadvantage, making it even more difficult to deal with.

Considering the current situation on the entire battlefield, the cultivator side is completely at a disadvantage. In the end, the way forward under the counterattack of the sea beasts can be described as precarious and the future is bleak.

Chapter 482

Of course, this does not mean that there is no good news on the entire battlefield. At least the No.18 team headed by Zhao Shoushou has not retreated half a step from the sinking area that the No. No small highlight.

There are two reasons for this: First, the subsidence area is originally geographically remote, with relatively backward comprehensive conditions, and the sea beasts it faces are relatively weak.

Second, after the strongest sea beasts appeared in other patrol points, the subsidence area still remained calm, because the most powerful black flood dragon here had fallen under its spiritual weapon early.

This is also the main reason why Zhao Shoushou can recuperate in the quiet room with ease after the battle is over.

Before the official retreat, he also took another shot to kill the slightly stronger sea beast here again, at least to ensure that the team headed by Hou Rongfa, even if it is in danger, can at least stick to it until his appearance.

As the saying goes: blessings come in misfortunes, and misfortunes bring blessings. Although the No. 18 team headed by Zhao Shoushou has won a lot of victories, it will naturally attract the attention of some strong sea beasts.

Although the subsidence area is remote and lacks spiritual power, it is still an indispensable part of this spiritual island. As time passed, some sea beasts came to support it.

Especially within a few days of his retreat, this situation became even more severe. Although Hou Rongfa's battle was not weak, it was also a typical one-handed struggle.

Speaking of which, this cultivator in the late stage of Foundation Establishment can be regarded as a little legend. I don't know what method he used to get out of the sea beasts safely.

"It's a pity that the captain is not here, otherwise, how could the situation we are facing be so severe? How can there be two second-level high-grade sea beasts raging?" In a rather dilapidated earthen house near the subsidence area, a monk with injuries all over his body Said very lowly.

"Although Fellow Daoist Hou is not weak, he can only restrain one of them. Otherwise, how could the two of us suffer such serious injuries?"

Both of these two are genuine mid-stage foundation-building monks, and their combat prowess is quite impressive. In the previous battle, they entangled a second-rank high-grade sea beast at a disadvantage, and were severely injured under several heavy blows. Although the sea beast retreated temporarily, The two of them can only take a temporary rest here to prevent the sea beast from attacking again.

According to the latest regulations of the Spirit Island Alliance, under the attack of sea beasts, the patrol line still exists, and each monk can get one point for every extra day.

This is one of the reasons why many monks in the Foundation Establishment Stage can persevere. After all, staying for one more day is equivalent to hunting two sea beasts of the same level. Unless they are forced to do so, the monks here are not willing to retreat easily.

The Lingdao Alliance does not show mountains or dews on weekdays, but it is a real behemoth. It has controlled the overseas cultivation world for more than ten thousand years. The treasures accumulated during this period are really countless. The expensive treasures are just the tip of the iceberg.

Most of the monks in the No.18 team are monks who came from casual cultivation, and it is quite difficult to move forward in the cultivation world.

Now that he has the opportunity to get more points to exchange for some rare treasures, he will not give up easily.

Although the two monks in the middle stage of foundation establishment had some dissatisfaction in their hearts, they did not dare to take half a step back during the battle. Now they only hope that Zhao Shoushou can return as soon as possible to preside over the overall situation and change the situation.

"Moo" In the middle of the night, a loud and distant cow cry broke the original calm situation, and the entire subsidence area suddenly entered an atmosphere of scrambling for war, but when all the monks arrived at the patrol line, they looked at the front not far away. A not very tall but quite stable figure, the heart that was hanging in the air calmed down immediately.

"In the middle of the night, I didn't know how to advance or retreat to come forward to provoke. Today, someone from Zhao came to cut off the bull's head in the middle of the night." Zhao Shoushou said in a low voice, the fierce light in his eyes flickered, but there was nothing to block it.

Not far from Zhao Shoushou's body, there were two second-rank high-grade sea beasts. Apart from a relatively common sea stone cow, there was also a snow wolf on the left with no stray hairs all over its body.

It was their cooperation in the previous battle in the subsidence area that resulted in serious injuries to two mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators in Team No. 18. As the captain, how could Zhao Shoushou let it go?

Of course, apart from avenging the monks under his command, Snow Wolf's white, soft and valuable fur is also one of its biggest motivations.

Wolves are distributed in a wide range and there are many kinds. Most of them are of various colors to hide their bodies. The number of snow wolves is quite rare. During Zhao Shoushou's more than [-] years of practice journey, I have only seen a few of them.

The fur of the snow wolf is the best material for refining vestments. It only needs to add some special raw materials during the refining process to activate the function of the nirvana in its blood. At the same time, it also has a good effect on hiding one's own breath.

The most important point is that the outerwear made of blood wolf skin has no shortcomings in terms of appearance. Many female cultivators do not hesitate to buy it at a high price in exchange for some effective panacea.

In addition to the above two second-rank high-grade sea beasts headed by them, there are still more than a dozen second-rank middle-low-grade sea beasts following behind, baring their teeth, letting out a fierce look, and even giving birth to stinky saliva.

"Aw!" The confrontation time was very short, but between three or five breaths, accompanied by a loud roar, the snow wolf's light body swooped, easily passed the tall and strong Haishi Niu, and traveled through space to his neck. Biting from above, two front paws covered with sharp nails and powerful enough to pierce gold cracking stones fell towards his dantian at the same time, as if they wanted to injure him severely in one fell swoop.

"You Daoist Hou, let's get entangled with Hai Shi Niu for a while, and come to support immediately after someone kills the snow wolf." Zhao Shoushou didn't look back, but after giving a simple order, he waved a stone stick in his hand and chose to go with him The snow wolves engage in head-on combat.

This stone cudgel was snatched from the previous battle after wounding the water monkey at the cost of a set of expensive talismans.

The quality of the stone stick did not live up to his expectations. The whole body was polished little by little with sea corals over ten thousand years old. It was light and powerful in the hand, far surpassing the flying sword lost in the battle with the black flood dragon.

This battle was just the time to test the true power of the stone stick, and he probably wouldn't be disappointed. It was too late, and the result of Zhao Shoushou's first head-to-head confrontation with Xuelang was soon before his eyes.

Before the leaping snow wolf could really get close, a stone club had already been struck down on the head, and its appearance was quite crisp and neat, leaving no room for maneuver at all.

Chapter 483

The goal of the stone stick was the two sharp claws attacking the dantian. After all, the dantian must not be mistaken, but even the slightest mistake would be a huge blow to an ambitious monk. Irreparable regret.

In addition, the snow wolf itself is not good at defense. As long as it can be hit steadily and hard, under the attack of the stone stick, a pair of front claws will be broken at the slightest, or broken in two on the spot.

Anyway, for a snow wolf, the loss of its due combat power or supporting strength in its forelimbs means that its fate has no room for change, and there is no second choice other than falling.

Of course, if there are other sea beasts backing up at this time, Snow Wolf may have a chance to escape, but unfortunately, after Zhao Shoushou's shot, the current two second-tier high-grade sea beasts are far from enough to cause enough damage to the patrol line in the subsidence area. threaten.

As for the other second-tier high-grade sea stone ox, under Hou Rongfa's sharp attack, it has more than enough self-preservation but is unable to support it, and even escape is an unattainable goal.

As a qualified sea beast, the snow wolf's sensitivity to battle is naturally beyond doubt. When it discovered the rapid change of the battle situation, it still rushed forward regardless.

It seemed that he didn't care about the stone stick's attack on a pair of front paws. Perhaps this was also his strategy of besieging Wei and saving Zhao. He tried to attack with the vital point between his neck to force Zhao Shoushou to give up the attack and turn around to protect himself, so as to continue to gain the upper hand in the battle.

Although the battle plan is good, it is a pity that it is difficult to implement. It is like a flower in a mirror and a moon in water.

After groping with his left hand, a magic talisman dedicated to defense was immediately sacrificed. On top of Zhao Shoushou's head, a tower-shaped treasure that was only the size of a fist but radiated a shining light stood firmly in the sky above.

"Since a certain is willing to take action, how can he not have any means of defense? Sea beasts will always be just sea beasts. It's just a pity that a precious defensive talisman will give me a stick." Zhao Shoushou didn't seem to have any doubts about the power of the talisman. Taking advantage of the momentary difference and stagnation of Snow Wolf, he decisively bullied him.

At the same time, the right hand groped from the dantian, and the second-rank high-grade heavy-duty mace broke through the air, and smashed directly at Xuelang's waist from another direction.

From the rich combat experience before, it is clear that the tofu waist is a shortcoming that all wolf monsters will never be able to restrain.

Weakness attacks are always more effective than half the effort. As a qualified monk, how could Zhao Shoushou give up so easily?Under the attack of the two phases, it could not be said that the snow wolf could be killed directly.

"Aren't you going to die? Kill" only a deafening shout was heard, and at the critical moment, two spiritual weapons had already landed on Snow Wolf's body.

The fighting strength of the second-tier high-grade snow wolf is naturally beyond doubt, but unfortunately under the attack of Zhao Shoushou's two powerful spiritual weapons, he also seemed very weak, and even lost the chance to dodge, so he could only whimper. With a whimper, it finally became one of its trophies.

After Zhao Shoushou came out of the customs, he defeated the frontal attacks of sea beasts several times with an unstoppable posture, and killed three or five second-rank high-grade sea beasts with absolute advantage. Under his perseverance, he has always been as stable as Mount Tai and motionless.

This kind of situation would be inconspicuous if placed on weekdays, but today when the overall situation of the comprehensive spirit island is constantly collapsing, it is as dazzling as a firefly in the dark night.

During the period, it even attracted the attention of a third-order sea beast. Thanks to a golden core monk who happened to be patrolling nearby, he helped in time and defeated the sea beast.

The patrol line in the subsidence area lasted for as long as two months. Although he encountered many dangers during this period, Zhao Shoushou also gained a lot.

The most obvious one is points. Up to now, a total of 84 points have been accumulated in the identity token, which is a considerable fortune.

According to the regulations of the Spirit Island Alliance, only [-] points can be exchanged for a second-level high-grade cleansing liquid. This kind of liquid is recognized in the cultivation world and can be used before congealing the golden core, and it is also obviously helpful for monks to condense the core. The effect can at least increase the success rate by more than [-]%.

In addition to this, I also learned something during the battle with sea beasts. After finishing a battle with sea beasts of the same level, I can feel a significant improvement in my cultivation after retreating for a few days under the influence of the spirit pill.

It was precisely because of the above reasons that Zhao Shoushou was willing to fight bravely in every battle, regardless of his own danger, and chose the most ferocious sea beast to fight.

"One hundred points seems simple, but with the support of the second wave of monks, the difficulty of raising has become more and more difficult. At least 32 second-level high-grade sea beasts need to be hunted successfully." Zhao Shoushou couldn't help showing a trace of sadness on his face.

In fact, it can also be seen from this point that the difficulties and obstacles faced by a casual cultivator on the way forward are far beyond imagination.

The reason why this trip has been able to accumulate 84 points so far is mainly due to the incentive measures of the Lingdao Alliance after a big defeat.

This kind of reward will be officially canceled two days later, because under the strong leadership of the Spirit Island Alliance, the second wave of huge support forces from the monks' side has arrived ahead of schedule.

More than a hundred Jindan monks and nearly a thousand foundation-building monks, in order to win the battle in one fell swoop, did not hesitate to pay a small price, and carried ten thousand Qi-refining monks who had been trained in the Dao Formation to this spiritual island.

A large number of monks arrived at Spirit Island and after some simple rest, they were immediately assigned to various teams.

The number 18 monks headed by Zhao Shoushou, the base establishment period monks increased to a full state of ten, and another ten teams were dispatched with a hundred monks in the late stage of Qi refining.

After these late-stage Qi refining monks have undergone rigorous training, ten monks can set up a formation to restrain the second-rank low-grade sea beasts, and a brigade of hundreds of monks can be entangled with the second-rank middle-grade sea beasts.

The purpose of these monks is not to kill the enemy, the only purpose may be to contain and consume the power of sea beasts, to resist the counterattack of sea beasts at critical moments, as the cheapest consumables, after all, compared to the large number of For monks in the Qi refining period, the cultivation of each monk in the foundation building period needs to consume a lot of resources and energy.

"Fellow daoists, we are waiting for the second wave of strong support for monks to arrive ahead of schedule. Killing sea beasts, earning points, and exchanging treasures is now in progress. Follow me to kill." Two days later, under the leadership of a middle-stage Jindan monk , More than [-] well-managed squads formally launched a second attack on the opposite sea beast.

This time the attack was obviously more well planned, all the tasks were divided into teams, and there was one Jindanqi ancestor in charge of the fifty teams.

Chapter 484 Golden Elixir as a Cone to Build a Foundation

Except for a small number of Golden Core monks sitting in all directions, the main force is still concentrated on the battlefield of head-on confrontation. After the last battle, there are still 25 Golden Core monks sitting in the town, plus the hundred Golden Core ancestors who came to support this time , there are still more than seventy people responsible for the head-to-head confrontation.

And among them, there are more than [-] great monks in the late stage of Jindan, and their only task is to defeat and disperse many third-order sea beasts.

The reason why the monks in the last battle were defeated was because of the lack of monks in the golden core period, which caused some ancestors from casual cultivators to retreat early. The hundred monks who came this time were mainly from the headquarters of the Spirit Island Alliance and some sects The big faction already has an advantage in personal strength among their peers, and they have obvious advantages in discipline and cooperation.

According to the original task assignment, the subsidence area was just the most inconspicuous and remote location on the entire battlefield, and naturally it would not attract the attention of some Jindan cultivators.

The treatment at this time is completely different. With the defeat of most of the patrol lines, this place has almost become the most prominent part in the east of the entire Lingdao. Since this is a decisive battle, it will naturally become a place for monks to move forward. The bridge to attack, otherwise, how could it attract the attention of Jindan stage monks and third-order sea beasts.

If it weren't for the fact that the high-level combat forces between the two sides were afraid of each other and were unwilling to easily come forward to cause a larger-scale battle before the arrival of new support forces, Zhao Shoushou and others might have become delicacies in the stomachs of third-order sea beasts.

Since such an important subsidence area is naturally also the base camp responsible for the mid-term Golden Core monks, the No.18 team is the most outstanding force, and their task is to follow in the footsteps of the Golden Core monks and be responsible for the first wave of breakthroughs.

For Zhao Shoushou, this was an opportunity and at the same time a matter that could threaten his life at any time. It was conceivable that what they encountered must be the most powerful sea beast.

If they meet one or two of them, maybe the golden core stage monks can still resist, or even win the battle. For Zhao Shoushou, he can naturally get some opportunities to compete for precious treasures in advance.

On the contrary, when encountering some powerful sea beasts, when the Jindan monks are at a disadvantage and cannot cope, they are the first wave of victims, and they don't even have the chance to retreat. Basically, it is equivalent to blocking the knife for the Jindanqi ancestors Fight for a chance of survival in danger.

"Kill, kill, kill" officially kicked off with the attack. On the entire Lingdao, different teams launched a second counterattack from different positions.

One after another, the sound of shouting and killing, the sound of the collision of spiritual weapons, the explosion of different spiritual spells, and the painful groans after being injured, almost covered every corner of the entire island.

All the teams are advancing in an orderly manner according to their respective tasks, but the most eye-catching thing is still the battle in the sky.

Compared to the last time when they were at a disadvantage because of their slightly inferior strength, the monks had a clear upper hand in this battle, both in terms of numbers and cultivation, so at the beginning of the war, they had already firmly gained the upper hand.
