Practice begins with a fisherman

If he chooses some similar areas with relatively poor resources, the price may be higher than expected, which makes him quite satisfied with the harvest of this adventure.

What's more, compared with these white bear corpses, he is more concerned about the harvest in the storage bag of the thunder monk. The entire net worth of a monk with a strong fighting power in the middle stage of Jindan, the harvest is enough to make people's heart beat.

"I hope I can have a good harvest. If I have enough luck, all my hopes of being promoted to the sixth level of Jindan and even the later stage can all be realized here." Only Zhao Shoushou whispered to himself for a while, and there was a twinkle in his eyes. called the ray of hope.

No matter how many dangers he encounters, how many times he overcomes difficulties and obstacles, the root of everything is still the improvement of his cultivation. This is also the ultimate goal of his efforts, and he is always very clear about his own goals.

The storage bag was originally imprinted by monks with mana, but when the master fell, these naturally dissipated.

"Wow!" Under Zhao Shoushou's control, a large number of treasures sprayed out from the small pocket, and a hill-like protrusion composed of various treasures appeared in front of his eyes.

The types of treasures in the storage bag are quite complicated, mainly all kinds of unrefined spiritual materials, and some jade bottles and spirit sealing boxes are also mixed in.

"A horse is not fat without night grass, and a man is not rich without windfall. With such a rich net worth, could it be that he robbed some unknown sect or family?" Treasure didn't move.

Wealth touches people's hearts, and treasures are not inferior. To monks, the most attractive thing in the world is the rare treasures that are stacked together and have different effects?

Their value is unquestionable, and they can be sorted and sorted by categories in the precious income storage bag of a lightning-attribute Golden Core middle-stage monk.

What Zhao Shoushou was most concerned about was naturally more than a dozen jade bottles, large and small, all of which were specially used to hold the elixir, and had the most obvious effect on improving the cultivation base.

"All three bottles are Juyuan Pills. The quality is slightly inferior. You can only make up the number through the quantity, but it is a good harvest."

"A complete bottle of Life and Life Pill is an excellent treasure for healing. Although it cannot achieve the effect of life and death, it can also save people's lives at critical moments."

"Maid-increasing pill, this is a special pill for spirit beasts. Could it be that this guy also has spirit beasts? Why haven't you seen him use spirit beasts to defend against the enemy?"

"Four complete bottles of Yunyuan Pills are really generous. This is one of the most effective panaceas that monks in the middle stage of Jindan can take. One is worth three Juyuan Pills. With the help of this panacea, It is not a luxury to quickly advance to the sixth level of Jindan, even in the later stage of Jindan, there is hope to rush to the top."

"There is only one elixir in the jade bottle, the overall color is lavender, and it exudes a fragrance. It should be an effective mixed-element elixir that can assist monks to advance to the golden elixir stage."

In addition to the above-mentioned panacea in the storage bag, there is also a set of tools specially used to make treasure talismans, which can be regarded as a special kind of magic weapon, and at least it can be exchanged for a third-tier middle-grade magic weapon of similar value.

There are a total of more than [-] middle and lower grade third-level thunder-attribute treasure charms sealed in the spirit-sealing box. This lightning-attribute monk is also a skilled talisman maker.

The power of the Thunder Attribute Talisman is unquestionable, especially for some special environments, such as ghost cultivators, demon cultivators, blood cultivators, etc., it will definitely get twice the result with half the effort. If you meet these monks in the future, you can easily kill them. Suppression can also be regarded as a means of suppressing the bottom of the box.

Perhaps the only pity is that no magic weapon has been harvested, which is also related to the overall environment of the current cultivation world where there are more wolves and less meat.

"Since the harvest is so rich, it's time for Mr. Zhao to go back to the dungeon at the bottom of the lake to practice in seclusion. There is hope for the later stage of Jindan," Zhao Shoushou murmured.

Chapter 669 Another predictable long-term retreat

On this trip, Zhao Shoushou ventured across half of the subcontinent from the underground city at the bottom of the lake, risking his life several times along the way, and came to the upper city, the core city of the entire subcontinent, for the sole purpose of purchasing various cultivation resources and assisting his cultivation as soon as possible. improvement.

Originally, after spending almost all of the 3 yuan of top-grade spirit stones obtained in exchange for his family fortune, although he had some gains, it was still difficult to meet his own needs, which was more or less regrettable.

The most obvious of them are nothing more than two: First, assisting in the promotion of the treasure marrow coins in the late stage of Jindan is almost a life choice, and the right to choose is not in your own hands at all, you can only place the future in the misty and disorderly luck above.

Second, due to the lack of spiritual stones from the beginning to the end, it was impossible to buy a favorite defensive magic weapon. The underground city almost condenses all the essence of the subcontinent, and has sufficient foundation and strength.

Naturally, there is no lack of a third-tier middle-grade or even top-grade defensive magic weapon, and even the treasures that monks in the Nascent Soul stage need are all available. Of course, the premise of all this is that they can provide the same amount of high-grade spiritual stones for purchase. .

This time he took the risk to kill Brother Thunder and Lightning in retaliation, and he got such a huge harvest by accident. Naturally, he needed a stable place to digest it seriously.

Of course, during the days in the underground city, in addition to buying some elixir with spirit stones to meet his needs, Zhao Shoushou also had some other gains. The most helpful thing for him was undoubtedly the water control gun, which was successfully promoted to the third-tier mid-level.

Once in the old water river, Zhao Shoushou hunted a money crocodile to get a third-grade middle-grade water sparkle spar. The reason why he didn't sacrifice it before was that there was no suitable refiner as a choice for a while.

This was the most difficult problem to solve, but after arriving in the upper city, it became the easiest to get the answer. Among them, there is a street dedicated to refining weapons in the square city, and there are nearly [-] large and small refining shops on it. There are more than one craftsman with different levels of strength.

From the magical artifacts on the road of cultivation to the acquired spiritual treasures that monks in the Nascent Soul stage can control, as long as they can provide enough spiritual materials, they are all eligible for refining.

Naturally, if one of the most common magic weapon, the water control gun, is promoted to the third-tier mid-tier, and a sufficient quantity and quality of sparkling crystals are provided, at least [-] or more experienced craftsmen can complete the task.

After Zhao Shoushou paid a lot of spirit stones, within a month, the water control gun has been sacrificed. In addition to the normal improvement of the rank, it has also been refined to a certain extent, whether it is power or future. potential has been significantly improved.

This is also the reason why White Bear and Brother Thunderbolt were killed almost at the same time in the final battle.

If it weren't for the fact that this lightning cultivator belonging to the Binxi Sect was too vengeful, Zhao Shoushou would not even be willing to leave this magnificent underground city.

"The underground city really lives up to its name. Mr. Zhao has gained a lot this time. Although he is forced to leave today, he will definitely come back in the future." Zhao Shoushou secretly made up his mind, took a deep look at the majestic city wall of the upper city, and then nodded. He chose to leave without going back.

Since with his current strength, when he provokes a sect with Yuanying Patriarch sitting in charge, the most correct way is to run away.

The various treasures obtained from the hostile but still unknown lightning attribute monks are enough to meet the needs of retreat for a long time in the future.

If adding the spirit pill purchased from his own spirit stone, for Zhao Shoushou, the main contradiction has changed invisibly, from the supply and demand of treasures to the improvement of cultivation base.

In this return trip, in addition to avoiding certain risks, retreat practice will also become an important component, and the time for this retreat is destined to be very long.

In his practice career, the longest retreat so far is still nearly [-] years from the early stage to the middle stage of Jindan, and this time it is destined to be similar, or even longer.

Although Zhao Shoushou is eager to return to retreat, this does not mean that he will give up the opportunity along the way. In the [-]-mile journey, there are more than [-] dungeons. How can he not search carefully?

According to his plan, the return journey and the return journey are two completely different roads. How can we let go of the beautiful scenery on this road?

On the one hand, it is to clean up all the unused treasures, and on the other hand, it is natural to buy some treasures that are needed after being promoted to the later stage of Jindan. This should also be regarded as another way to prepare for a rainy day.

The sun and the moon flow, day and night alternate, and time flies. In the process of continuous efforts to move forward and trade, two years are but a fleeting time.

When the increasingly dilapidated ruins of the central dungeon appeared in front of my eyes, it had been four years since Zhao Shoushou left.

Compared with the difficulty of the journey to the dungeon, after having relatively abundant experience and preparations, the return trip seemed calm and smooth along the way.

This is under the circumstances of ignoring the fierce battle with monsters. On this subcontinent where monks are still at a disadvantage, monsters are always an unavoidable topic.

For Zhao Shoushou and other Jindan stage monks, going back and forth to the upper city without suffering too many losses and injuries, and still making a little profit is already a great feat and good luck.

On the way back, he successfully sold all the corpses of the seven white bears. Some of the temporarily useless third-level spiritual materials obtained from the storage bag of the monk Thunder and Lightning also disposed of most of them, even including the only one that had not been refined. A third-tier low-grade sword-shaped magic weapon.

What they get in exchange are naturally all kinds of treasures that are necessary for the current or future cultivation process, among which the most valuable are undoubtedly two bottles of the third-grade top-grade Purple Goji True Essence Pill.

This is one of the most popular spirit pills suitable for the late stage of Jindan in the subcontinent practice circle. The value of each spirit pill has reached an astonishing 600 yuan top-grade spirit stone. Such a high price is also in short supply.

If he hadn't sold a large number of middle and low-grade third-grade spirit grasses in the storage bag of monk Thunder to a shop with a high-level alchemist in charge, he would never have had the opportunity to buy them. A precious treasure that can be encountered but not sought after.

In addition to assisting the improvement of the cultivation level of the late Jindan monks, the third-level top-grade Purple Goji True Essence Pill has another important function, which is to help the newly promoted monks to quickly stabilize their cultivation base.

In fact, from this point, it can also be seen that Zhao Shoushou's determination to advance to the late stage of Jindan this time, even under the premise that there is still a significant distance between the current cultivation base and the late stage of Jindan.

The difficulty can be imagined, and even after this upgrade, it may take a lot of time to make up for the shortcomings of the foundation, and it is not hesitating.

Chapter 670 Cormorants vs. Plum Blossom Snake

The root cause of all this is naturally that after he came to the sub-continent, it was not too long before the second teleportation array was opened. Only when he was promoted to the late stage of Jindan could there be a glimmer of hope for competition, even if it is not easy to achieve. Fight for it.

At the beginning, by chance, he crossed layers of time and space to reach the sub-continent. After he learned that he had the opportunity to go to the cultivation world of the Central Plains, he put in a hundredfold effort for a glimmer of hope, and he didn't dare to slack off every day.

The cultivation world in the Central Plains is full of flowers and resources, and there are obviously more opportunities to hit the Nascent Soul, so he must be promoted to the late stage of Jindan as soon as possible, and strive for the opportunity to step on the teleportation formation.

Of course, even if one gets a seat on the teleportation array, there is only a one-third chance of successfully reaching the Central Plains cultivation world.

In fact, for Zhao Shoushou, no matter whether it is the overseas cultivation circle or the mainland cultivation circle, the overall conditions are far better than those in the sub-continent.

This is just a huge island surrounded by the sea on all sides, with relatively abundant resources, but it is still a prison after all, especially for many people with great supernatural powers.

"Fellow Daoist has worked hard all these years, and the dungeon at the bottom of the lake has reached today's scale. Fellow Daoist Sun has contributed a lot. Someone, Zhao, is here to thank you." In the mansion of the Lord of the dungeon at the bottom of the lake, Zhao Shoushou expressed his gratitude from the bottom of his heart.

Although he has never been here in the past four years, the development of the dungeon has not been affected in the slightest because of this. The number of monks coming and going every day is increasing, and the types of treasures sold in the square are increasing, and the quality is getting better. come higher.

Even without alarming some third-tier monsters around, the area of ​​the dungeon was expanded by about one-tenth of a little by little.

All of this was naturally presided over by Sun Jichang, the elder Dharma protector in front of him. Although a large amount of salary is offered every year, it is still worthy of his admiration and gratitude.

"Where is the city lord, Jichang is just barely fulfilling his duties. Everything is due to the city lord laying a solid foundation for the dungeon. A little bit of credit is not worth mentioning." Sun Jichang declined, with a confident expression on his face. The smile is real.

"Zhao has been away for several years, is there any problem that needs to be solved?" Zhao Shoushou asked, mainly targeting some powerful monsters.

There is no doubt about Sun Jichang's ability and contribution to the dungeon at the bottom of the lake, but after all, he only has the cultivation base of the first level of Jindan, and he has no suitable magic weapon. He can be called the weakest group of Jindan monks.

Not to mention that they absolutely dare not take the initiative to provoke some third-order monsters. Even if monsters attack, I am afraid they can only rely on the protective formation of the dungeon to deal with them.

"It's strange to say that in recent years, no fixed third-order monsters have been found around the dungeon. At most, they have only stayed here for a month or two." Sun Jichang has always been puzzled by this point, and has never understood it. the mystery.

"After conquering the dungeon in the center of the earth, the dryads did not evacuate on a large scale. How could these domineering dryads tolerate other monsters sharing the living space and cultivation resources they scrambled for?" very clear.

However, he is not worried about the dryads. First, the dungeon at the bottom of the lake is small in scale and its location is hidden. It does not have much influence on these dryads; Suffering a serious injury, it is not possible to heal in a short time.

When Zhao Shoushou and Sun Jichang, the two Jindan monks, were exchanging some questions, in a dense forest, two cormorants had actually been at the peak of the second-level top-rank for many years, and they had polished themselves to the point where they could not advance. It is confronting a third-tier low-grade plum blossom snake demon whose body is covered with plum blossoms.

The Plum Blossom Snake Demon is one of the few types of snake demons with a relatively mild temperament and has never been accompanied by a highly poisonous snake. Its own combat effectiveness should be relatively backward among the same level.

But all of this is only in relative terms. No matter how you look at it, it is a genuine third-tier low-grade monster, which is far from comparable to the second-tier monster.

Under the careful cultivation of Zhao Shoushou, the two cormorants were far superior in intelligence and strength to the same level, but they still couldn't make up for the insurmountable gap in strength that was as insurmountable as a trench.

The two little guys, Big Fatty and Little Fatty, should be prepared to put their lives on the line and force out their own potential through fighting, so that they can break through the solid bottleneck and smoothly advance to the third-order spirit beast.

This is also one of the most common methods used by monsters and spirit beasts, and the risks involved are quite high. Once they fail, there will be no bones left. When encountering provocative Tier [-] monsters, they will definitely use them whole as blood food Swallowed into the stomach.

Especially like the Plum Blossom Snake Demon, whose strength is slightly inferior in the same level, and can often encounter similar challenges, and his temper is even more irritable.

"Hiss, hiss" the long snake letter of the plum blossom snake demon kept swallowing, and the body that was originally entangled in the cool and damp place under the tree suddenly moved forward and pierced the air, and went straight to bite the obviously more delicious big fat .

The snake demon, who was enjoying the sleep time after a full meal, was obviously in a state of extreme rage when the two unexpected guests arrived.

"Quack, quack, quack" Fatty tried his best to fan his short wings, and dodged in another direction, hoping to avoid the attack of the snake demon. The other pair opened their mouths and sprayed a stream of black water with a fishy smell, hitting the snake demon. poured down on the coming skulls.

A pair of powerful and sharp hind limbs landed steadily and fiercely towards the snake demon's seven inches, exerting its own strength to an extreme state.

In addition, the cormorant chubby took this opportunity to quickly get into the two-foot-high grass and disappear completely. The plum blossom snake demon didn't care, obviously determined to eat the obviously obese guy in front of him.

Through these years of training, the two cormorants have not only greatly increased their strength, they are also obviously more thieves. In the process of the snake monster moving forward, there is no trickery, it is completely crushed by strength, and the powerful tail is waving wildly , the highly poisonous water had been knocked into the air before it fell, and landed on the surrounding vegetation.

Apart from leaving some dry vegetation and a stench, the venom accumulated in Big Fatty's body for many years did not play any role at this time.

As for the sharp claws that were about to land on the plum blossom snake seven inches away, under the defense of layers of snake skin, they only left white marks, which didn't have much effect.

On the contrary, the snake demon took advantage of the strength of the snake's tail to easily turn around, and once again quickly narrowed the distance to Fatty, as if he would not give up if the blood in front of him did not meet his goal.

In this kind of one-on-one battle, the strength gap between the second-level cormorant and the third-level snake demon is quite obvious. If there is only one cormorant, it is doomed to be unable to win the battle. The price of bleeding.

Chapter 671

Just like the situation between Big Fatty and the Plum Blossom Snake, just when the two sides were about to meet and the bloody mouth of the Snake was only one step away from the cormorant, the cormorant Xiaopang, who had slipped through the grass since the beginning of the war, But it miraculously appeared behind it.

There was a sound of "croaking" that contained a sound of urging. Seeing that the big fat cormorant had no way to hide, it moved smoothly at the most dangerous moment and jumped out of the snake's mouth at a critical moment.

The cormorant chubby located at the tail of the plum snake resolutely spit out an ice pick that was also condensed from the essence of ice, and shot it towards the tail of the snake.

Judging from their plans, the previous series of preparations, provocations, and even the big fat cormorant did not hesitate to take risks, all of which are for the present moment.

The ice cone moved very fast, and quickly entered the body of the plum blossom snake demon, and rushed upward along the texture of the snake body, as if it was preparing to penetrate the snake demon in one fell swoop.

The plan is perfect. If it can be realized, it is impossible to kill the snake demon in one fell swoop. Unfortunately, it is limited by its own strength. The ice pick can only advance a distance of Zhang Xu, and it has been excreted under the resistance of the plum blossom snake demon. It can be said to be typical. The lack of success makes people sigh.

Even so, the results of the two cormorants are also not cheap. The ice cone spreads upwards in the body of the snake demon, accounting for almost one-fifth of its body. It is also an obvious wound. one.

"Hiss..." Under the attack of pain all the time, the snake demon suddenly fell into a rage. He didn't care about his injuries at all, gushing out bursts of blood, and a beautiful tail wagging in the air, bringing the cormorant chubby who was about to make persistent efforts to life. Knock away a distance of tens of feet.

The plum blossom snake demon is particularly disgusted with this cormorant that has severely injured its body. Once it strikes, it will attack continuously and continuously, and it doesn't even pay too much attention to the big fat cormorant who is entangled nearby.

This change is obviously very unfavorable to the two cormorants. The only hope for them to win the step-up challenge is to cooperate closely and attack them unexpectedly. Under the suppression of absolute strength, it seemed quite embarrassing.

The two cormorants, Big Fatty is of water attribute, and Xiaopang is of mutated ice attribute. The former is good at agile entanglement, and the latter is good at heavy strikes at critical moments. It is completely the effect of one plus one greater than two, which is also the reason for their leapfrog challenges. .

For this kind of strange cooperation, if there is no sufficient preparation, it can naturally cause an unexpected heavy blow to the opponent, and thus achieve good results. However, when the powerful opponent has sufficient preparation and understanding, everything The advantage is naturally gone.

Just like now, under the full attack of the plum blossom snake demon, the two cormorants have no resistance at all, and can only retreat step by step, barely keeping their lives safe.

Among them, Xiaopang, who was the main blow several times, almost fell into the Shekou, and the cormorant Dapang, who was in charge of delaying and harassing, also suffered heavy injuries under the several key blows of the plum blossom snake demon, with large and small wounds. Ou is countless, every time he moves forward with his wings, the wound that has just healed will be torn open again.

In addition to the penetrating wounds caused by surprise from the tail, the two cormorants only left some superficial wounds on different positions such as the snake demon's abdomen and back, which are irrelevant to the overall situation at all.

In short, with the efforts of the third-rank low-rank plum blossom snake demon, the entire battle situation has completely changed. If it continues, the fate of the two cormorants is already doomed, and they can only be reduced to a delicious meal in the belly of the snake demon.

If it was at other times, Zhao Shoushou would naturally be able to help, but unfortunately he is not around at this time, and everything can only rely on the spirit beast itself.

This is also the reason for choosing the step-up challenge, and only when it is really in danger, can it be possible to stimulate a meager amount of ancestral power in the blood, so as to achieve a real leap and successfully promote to the third-order spirit beast.

From this aspect, there is not much difference between a monk and a spirit beast. Sometimes when faced with an insurmountable bottleneck, a battle between life and death is also one of the most effective methods.

"Hiss hiss" accompanied by bursts of triumphant snake sounds and the passage of time, the two cormorants have been completely suppressed, and they can continue to persevere without losing their lives, so it only depends on the cooperation between the two cormorants That's all.

Of course, from the performance of the plum blossom snake, there is also a feeling of a cat teasing a mouse. It is obvious that it wants to have a good time playing around before swallowing the two cormorants, so as to relieve the hatred and anger in its heart. Affection.

Maybe it's because of the oppression from the snake demon, or maybe it's already at a critical point. During the battle, the bodies of the two cormorants gradually soaked in blood red, and the surroundings also began to actively attract some spiritual power traveling in the air. Surrounding them, like moths to a flame, waiting to be thrown into their bodies.

Of course, this change was gradual and deep, and under the influence of the red blood, the plum blossom snake demon became irritable again, and the battle between the two sides with red eyes once again heated up.

According to the original battle situation, the two cormorants were already at a disadvantage. Under the continuous blows of the serpent demon's violent storm, they were like a small boat in the sea that could capsize at any time. At that time, it floated up again.
