Practice begins with a fisherman

However, all success is relative. In less than a cup of tea, with the gathering of a large number of mutated ants, the effect of the liquid is not cheap, but it is at an extreme disadvantage in terms of quantity.

From quantitative change to qualitative change, as the number increases, the enemy's difficult methods and levels also increase, especially in this group of ants that have always won by numbers.

"The effect of the liquid is amazing, but it's a bit useless for ants who win by numbers." As the fierce battle continued, every time a drop of liquid fell, an ant of the second-level high-rank or third-rank low-rank would rush desperately To avoid obvious impact on some high-level ants.

The number of mutated ants was increasing, and they surrounded Zhao Shoushou, who was determined to break through the encirclement. Perhaps one of them was not a concern, but the number in front of him had already caused a considerable impact on a late Nascent Soul cultivator.

His own strength cannot be underestimated, but every time one of them is killed, more ants will surround him from all directions.

In addition to the most basic ability of these mutated ants to spit out corrosive acid, their sharp forelimbs are also powerful weapons.

Even if he tried his best to dodge and move, some attacks that he had to bear were unavoidable. There was still a long way to go before he could successfully break through, and wounds of all sizes had already appeared densely on his body.

Chapter 899 A Secret Realm World Full of Treasures ([-])

Fortunately, Zhao Shoushou paid attention to the solid foundation, and the strength of his physical body was also the winner among the same level. The attacks of some low-level monsters did not cause obvious harm to him.

Whenever a fourth-order low-grade ant is successfully hunted, Zhao Shoushou will immediately put it in his pocket and plant a mark with his own mana breath, so that he can return it to the Taoist couple as a task in the future.

According to the deal he had made with the Dao Companion Sect, this trip required hunting four top-rank monsters of the fourth rank, six mid-rank monsters of the fourth rank, and ten low-rank monsters of the fourth rank.

There are only four fourth-tier high-grade monsters that are qualified to pose a threat to him here, as for the others, they can just do it casually.

Zhao Shoushou has never been able to break out of the siege here. Of course, it is the reason why the mutated ants will form a confrontation for a while when they are strong.

However, he has always wanted to take this opportunity to kill these mutated ants and kill ten low-rank fourth-rank existences. Although their individual strength is slightly weaker, they are still real low-rank fourth-rank monsters, which are enough to meet the original requirements of the Dao Companion Sect. Require.

Pay a small price here, gather ten low-rank fourth-rank monsters at once, and save more time to find them one by one in the future.

For an existence like Zhao Shoushou, time is the most precious cultivation resource. As long as you save enough time, you can find treasures of sufficient quantity and quality here to improve your cultivation.

From this point of view, the corpses of these fourth-level low-grade monsters are also a precious and necessary resource, which cannot be given up no matter what.

"Today's mission is completed, so Mr. Zhao will leave today. There is not enough time and energy to waste here." Zhao Shoushou turned into a streamer and disappeared without a trace at an unprecedented speed.

If a cultivator in the later stage wants to leave smoothly and break through, without being blocked by powerful monsters, simply relying on these mutated ants is far from enough. At most, they are just a small trouble .

In addition, during the evacuation, Zhao Shoushou picked a fourth-grade gastrodia elata near the ant nest, and this gastrodia elata had obviously grown for a long enough history.

At the top of Gastrodia elata, the bulging seeds have matured, and the unique fragrance of Gastrodia elata dissipates around.

Gastrodia elata has a wide range of uses. The seeds can be used as elixir to refine panacea, and the main part can be used as the main material for refining the fourth-order top-grade Houtian Lingbao. It can be said that the whole body is full of treasures.

For Zhao Shoushou or Pei Lingmen, who is famous for cultivating elixir behind him, the mature seeds on Gastrodia elata are the most meaningful and precious.

With the existence of these four seeds, Peilingmen can use special means to expand it little by little under the influence of sufficient time. As long as they have enough patience, they can expand it into a stable group.

A fourth-grade top-grade gastrodia elata group that can be produced continuously and stably is of unquestionable value to any sect.

Even if Zhao Shoushou succeeds in being promoted to the God of Transformation and ascends to the spirit world in the future, or falls accidentally in the process, with this piece of fourth-order top-grade gastrodia elata as the foundation, the future of Peilingmen is limitless.

The most important point is that Gastrodia elata does not have too strict requirements on the growth environment, it only needs sufficient supply of spiritual power to grow smoothly. Compared with some other types of fourth-grade top grades, it seems quite approachable.

This Gastrodia elata is also very important to the mutated ant colony, and its unique fragrance is fatally attractive to them.

When Zhao Shoushou took this Gastrodia elata away, it was like touching a tiger's butt, and the mutated ant colony suddenly fell into a rage.

Some flying ants with wings that can fly short distances showed up one after another and decisively pursued them, but their numbers were too few and scattered after all.

The advantage of the mutated ants itself lies in their quantity. When they lose this advantage as a reliance, they will not be able to affect a late-stage monk at all.

Facing the flying ants surrounded from all directions, Zhao Shoushou was no more than scratching his head. Three strikes, five divisions and two had already killed them all. Only some lucky ones escaped by chance, flapping their wings to compare Before returning to the lair at a faster speed.

For the mutated ant nests, those with wings that can fly are also mutated species, which are quite precious and should not be wasted easily.

A Gastrodia elata is certainly precious, but it is not an indispensable existence for the entire ant colony. When facing a strong opponent as an opponent, they can only choose to run away.

"There are treasures everywhere in the secret realm, and there are also dangers everywhere. The danger is higher than expected. This is just a nest of mutated ants. If you accidentally break into some powerful monsters, Zhao It's the most dangerous thing for someone," Zhao Shoushou murmured, his vigilance increased even more.

Of course, in addition to being vigilant, there is still some hope, some hopes for a rapid improvement in auxiliary cultivation or the hope of hitting the god-forming stage in the future. This is the fourth-rank top-rank secret realm.

For a late stage person, there must be some precious fourth-order top-grade elixir to improve one's cultivation, and there are not only one treasures of heaven and earth like grain and stone.

In short, judging from the current situation, Zhao Shoushou has great confidence in this place. As long as he has enough energy and confidence, he will definitely be able to gain something.

Of course, for him, the first goal in front of him must be to complete the deal with the Dao Companion Sect, and find suitable monsters to hunt one by one as soon as possible.

In particular, some fourth-tier high-grade monsters whose strength is comparable to that of late-stage Nascent Soul monks are naturally ranked first, and opponents of this level also need to be selected with considerable caution.

On the one hand, there needs to be a distinction between the strength and types of monsters. Zhao Shoushou doesn't want to rashly choose a powerful opponent, causing heavy losses to himself; This is his fundamental purpose.

For a monk, returning home empty-handed after a fierce battle is the most intolerable and acceptable thing, especially for an existence like Zhao Shoushou who is dedicated to improving his cultivation.

Soon he has started to investigate the surroundings, hoping to have a deeper understanding of the environment here, so that he can know himself and the enemy and win a hundred battles.

If you can't have a clear understanding of this place before the real war begins, it will be irresponsible for the safety of your life.

It was also this period of investigation that gave him a new understanding of the richness of this secret realm. Tier [-] and [-] elixir and spiritual materials are everywhere, and Tier [-] psychic objects are also emerging in endlessly, suitable for the Nascent Soul stage. The monks' fourth-order spiritual objects are not too lacking. In some places with more abundant spiritual power, there are more or less growths, and there are also some spiritual veins.

Chapter 900: A Secret Realm World Full of Treasures ([-])

The types and grades of the spirit veins are relatively complete, and several of them are of mining value in Zhao Shoushou's view. If they can be produced stably, they can be easily exchanged for a large amount of resources from the cultivation world.

The most important thing is that Zhao Shoushou also discovered the existence of a mine similar to Lingshi, but the scale and quality could not be confirmed due to the lack of corresponding means.

There is no doubt about the importance of Lingshi veins, just like the development and growth of a sect, it is indispensable, especially for low-level disciples.

Therefore, even a small Lingshi vein is a great discovery for a sect. This is just an inconspicuous corner in the secret realm. According to the current discoveries, it can be promoted one by one. have a clear understanding of its value.

In addition to the above-mentioned elixir, spirit material, and spirit mineral veins, the large and small spirit veins scattered in different places in the secret realm are also a treasure that cannot be ignored.

The low-level spiritual veins can be used to mine spiritual fields and plant some different grades of spiritual rice. Whether it is for personal use or for sale, it is a steady stream of stable financial resources due to its wide application range.

The high-level spirit veins are naturally used to open up some good-quality elixir gardens. As long as you are willing to invest, it only takes about a thousand years, and the huge third-level and lower spirit herbs of the Taoist Sect can meet your own needs.

In a sect, low-level elixir is always the one that consumes the most, and some high-quality elixir above level [-] is only needed by monks above Nascent Soul.

If this requirement can be fully met, the meaning of Taoist Companion Sect cannot be exaggerated. After all, in many places, sufficient elixir is just the beginning.

For example, in the cultivation of alchemists, every qualified alchemist is cultivated on the basis of a large supply of elixir. If the sect can supply sufficient elixir, it must be of great benefit to the cultivation of alchemists. Positive.

After having enough alchemists, the low-level spirit pills in the sect can naturally be self-sufficient, and if they are rich, they can be sold to the outside world.

It can not only enhance the status and influence of the Dao Companion Sect in the cultivation world, but also earn a lot of resources, which can be used to train younger monks, killing two birds with one stone.

Therefore, this fourth-tier high-grade secret realm is simply an inexhaustible treasure for the Dao Companion Sect, which is why the two Dinghai Shenzhengs have been intimidating outside.

Compared with the future income of the Daoist family, the floating wealth that Zhao Shoushou obtained by killing monsters here is not above the agreed level at all.

At the price of some seemingly high-quality floating wealth, driving a powerful late-stage Nascent Soul monk as an assistant to complete the control of the secret realm as soon as possible is the most important thing for the Dao Companion Sect at present.

After all, relying solely on Liu Hua and Fairy Liubo to fight against the enemy, on the one hand, he needs to take care of the junior disciples of the sect, and on the other hand, fights against the fourth-rank top-grade monsters who have the dominant force in the secret realm. .

What's more, Zhao Shoushou came from Peiling Sect, and his own strength was limited, so he couldn't have any negative impact on Dao Companion Sect.

To sum up, Zhao Shoushou had just had the opportunity to enter this fourth-order secret realm, and it was a combination of various factors, which can be said to be typical and indispensable.

"The fourth-level top-grade secret realm is completely equivalent to a small world. I am afraid that the royal family of Huang Mingguo has never had such a rich secret realm." After having a preliminary understanding of the comprehensive environment here, Zhao Shoushou couldn't help sighing from the bottom of his heart. with.

Of course, this kind of emotion came and went faster, and his energy and goals were quickly transferred to another monster beast of the fourth rank that he discovered during the investigation just now.

Among the fourth-tier top-rank secret realms, the fourth-tier top-rank monsters that can be accommodated are the strongest, but this does not mean that there are fourth-tier monsters everywhere, and their number is still very rare.

No matter in the world of comprehension or in the secret realm, the existence of the fourth-level top-rank can be called the overlord of one side. To raise the cultivation level to this level requires not only various resources, but also more opportunities, Luck, there may be a bloodline for monsters.

In the past day, Zhao Shoushou did not continue to attack hastily. Instead, he calmed down and checked the surroundings bit by bit. The focus must be on some locations with relatively strong spiritual power and relatively abundant spiritual objects.

For example, some are located on the fourth-order spiritual veins in mountains, lakes, and jungles, or near some towering trees, mutated flowers, and so on.

In addition to looking for traces of some fourth-tier top-rank monsters, the traces of fourth-tier middle-rank monsters are also in the process of searching. After all, according to the requirements of the Taoist couple, there are still six fourth-tier middle-rank monsters that need to be found. hunted.

Because he has absolute confidence in his own strength, he has very strict requirements for fourth-tier middle-grade monsters. Only when he finds some treasures that are useful to him or Wan'er in his lair will he choose to make a move.

In the process of searching for traces of monsters, Zhao Shoushou has also been working hard to find the whereabouts of some treasures. After all, judging from the current situation, the richness of the secret realm is far beyond imagination. If he can get something, he will naturally not give up in vain of.

Among them, the focus must be some high-grade spiritual ore veins, and the Taoist sect should not mind, Zhao Shoushou mines some as a reserve by the way.

Facts have proved that effort and gain must be equal. On the third day after entering the secret realm, a rattle snake entered his observation.

According to legend, the Ringing Snake has a trace of the blood of ancient beasts, but because it is too difficult to reproduce offspring, its number is quite rare.

According to records, they have not appeared in the cultivation world for at least 3000 years, and only in the existence of some similar secret realms can they appear.

In fact, no matter where it is, when the level of monsters is raised to the fourth-level top-level, there are more or less precious bloodlines as dependencies.

The preciousness of this ringing snake lies in its smooth snake skin, especially in the hands of some masters who are good at making talisman seals. The natural lines on it can be used to make some precious fourth-grade top-grade talisman seals.

An adult fourth-grade high-grade ring snake skin can be cut into at least a hundred high-grade talisman papers, which means that Zhao Shoushou can use this snake skin to exchange for ten high-grade fourth-grade talisman seals from the master of talisman seals.

This is undoubtedly attractive to a monk who likes to use talisman seals as a means of suppressing the bottom of the box or as an emergency measure.

Especially with the improvement of cultivation base, the number of talisman seals of the same level is getting less and less, and the price is getting more and more expensive. At least Zhao Shoushou has never had the opportunity to try a fourth-level top-grade talisman in battle since he was promoted to the later stage. After this trip is over, this dream will come true.

"It's not that Zhao is cruel, it's that talismans are too important, don't blame me for being ruthless." Zhao Shoushou's eyes lit up.

Chapter 901 Against the fourth-order high-grade Mingming Snake

Looking back on Zhao Shoushou's journey since he embarked on the road of practice, Fu Zhuan has always played an indispensable role, saving him from danger several times in battles and adventures.

It is precisely because of this that Zhao Shoushou has a special feeling for talismans. It is not because of him that he has not purchased new talismans after he was promoted to a late monk. Appearing in front of your eyes, you must never miss the opportunity.

In his eyes, a fourth-rank high-grade sound snake is not a simple fourth-grade high-grade monster, but a fourth-grade high-grade talisman that walks one by one.

Except for the snake skin, the remaining parts can still be used as spoils of war to complete the tasks in the Dao Companion Sect transaction, not to mention that as a qualified fourth-order high-grade monster, it should also have some gains in its lair, so It looks like killing three birds with one stone.

Three clearly irresistible benefits were laid out in front of him one by one, and Zhao Shoushou really had no reason to refuse, so when the Mingming Snake appeared, its outcome was already doomed.

Although the Ringing Ming Snake in front of him has already been promoted to the fourth-rank top-rank, judging from the aura it radiates, it is obvious that the time for promotion is not too long, and it is only barely stable in cultivation.

Obviously, no matter in terms of strength or means, the two sides are not at the same level at all. The reason why Zhao Shoushou didn't make a move in the first place is probably because he was observing the Mingming Snake, hoping to take the opportunity to find the place where its lair is located. Location.

"It's actually in a mess of rocks, and what's more, this mess of rocks presents a natural gossip formation. It's really the beauty of Zhong Tiandi and the magic of good fortune." Zhao Shoushou couldn't help showing a hint of surprise as he watched the ringing snake disappear in front of his eyes. look.

The natural gossip formation method is when some spiritual veins are formed, some spiritual objects imply special rhythms and echo with the spiritual veins, thus forming some rare natural formations.

If these natural formations are in the hands of a formation master, they are no less than any treasures. They only need to go through some simple transformations, and they can be used as a foundation to become a powerful high-level formation. , the future improvement potential of the formation is immeasurable.

This land of gossip also has a lot of potential, but unfortunately, the first person to encounter it was not a formation mage, or even a high-level monk belonging to the Dao Companion Sect.

Before being transformed by the formation master, the power of the gossip formation is not strong, barely comparable to some low-level fourth-level formations, which is not enough for a late-stage monk.

"This secret realm is already rich enough. In this land of gossip, someone like Zhao still destroys it. After all, it is to hunt and kill a rattle snake, and it is also to remove future troubles for the Taoist couple. If you want to come to a few fellow Taoists in the future It's understandable to discover something." Thinking of this, Zhao Shoushou had a smirk on his face.

Although there were some transactions between him and the Taoist couple, it didn't mean that Zhao Shoushou was willing to watch their strength grow.

Now that there is an opportunity, and it is an aboveboard reason, I naturally don't mind destroying some positions with potential without any future problems.

A natural gossip formation equivalent to a fourth-tier low-grade formation, under his all-out dismantling attack, has been turned into a mess in just three strikes, five divisions and two divisions.

The moment the formation was broken, the "hissing" snake turned into a stream of light and launched a critical attack immediately. A stream of colorful poisonous gas shot out from the snake's mouth, rushing straight towards his nose and mouth come.

The rattle snake is also a kind of poisonous snake, and with the improvement of cultivation base, the strength of the toxin also shows a straight-line upward trend, which is a very difficult existence for monks.

Especially Zhao Shoushou, who just completely expelled the last poison from his body, is very afraid of this kind of difficult snake venom.

Faced with this kind of attack, he turned sideways, waved his hands and sprayed out a stream of strong mana, turning into gusts of breeze, gathering all the snake venom and throwing it away in another direction.

This was not a simple operation. For this alone, Zhao Shoushou's Yuanying's mana had been fully consumed by a quarter.

In addition, it also involves the control of mana. Only when one has a detailed control of one's own mana and body can it be possible to achieve such a fine operation.

For the Mingming Snake, seeing that the previous attacks that were sure enough in the past did not have the expected effect, a trace of surprise flashed in a pair of small snake eyes. The long and powerful snake body did not retreat but advanced, and the slender tail A slap to the ground, using the reaction force to fly into the air.

A sharp snake tooth spewed out from the mouth of the snake, and the sharp green snake tooth pierced through the air. In the process of interweaving with the air, there was a unique sound of piercing the void.

The snake body of the Ringing Snake followed closely behind, a row of densely packed snake teeth hoarse towards his neck, and the slender and sharp snake tail shifted one by one, and turned to the dantian of the abdomen from another direction at an extremely twisted angle. Stab everywhere.

Mingming Snake's response could not be said to be untimely or unsharp. According to previous opponents, this series of attacks was enough to give the opponent a lore.

However, what he faced today was a monk with abundant combat experience and obviously superior strength, and the risks involved were completely incomparable in the past.

In the face of the Mingming Snake's attack, Zhao Shoushou not only did not flinch in the slightest, but showed a satisfied smile on the contrary, as if everything was expected.

The surprise attack of the snake teeth did not play a real role, Zhao Shoushou didn't even take it to heart, only when he approached, the two fingers of his left hand pinched forward, and the green snake teeth had already become his pocket , the toxins on it have not yet begun to invade, and have already been turned into bursts of white smoke under the mutual cancellation of mana.

Zhao Shoushou's main energy was placed on the attack of Shekou and Shewei. For most monsters, a strong body is their real trump card, and Mingming Snake is no exception.

If some monks really made a wrong judgment and put all their energy on the confrontation with the venom, I am afraid that they will really suffer.

"The snake's mouth is open, the throat is broken, the snake's tail is stabbed, and the dantian is broken, but your skill is still a bit inferior." The Zen wooden stick struck from the air, and happened to land on the snake's head at the most critical moment.

This fourth-rank top-grade Zen wooden stick, which is already powerful in itself, is already a big deal for this new fourth-rank top-grade chanting snake after it has been charged for a long time. Burden, dizziness is unavoidable for a while, of course, just relying on this blow is obviously not enough to seriously injure or even kill him.
