Practice begins with a fisherman

"This time I came here for the first-order high-grade essence and blood pill. It's good for you and me to wait together. A certain surname is Zhu and the name is Zhongsu. I met a fellow Taoist." Zhu Zhongsu introduced himself very simply, and the relationship between the two parties The distance quickly narrowed.

"Fellow Daoist Zhu, you're being polite. A certain surname is Zhao Shoushou, and we need to work together to hunt monsters this time." No matter how much of it is true or false, Zhao Shoushou's performance is not inferior.

After some seemingly enthusiastic greetings, the two sat cross-legged in two places far apart, one south and the other north. A safe distance can effectively ensure that the two sides will not suffer inexplicable attacks.

Perhaps because the agreed time was about to arrive, the remaining two monks who were invited arrived within half an hour respectively. One of them was surnamed Lu and the other was surnamed Shi, both of whom were experts at the peak level of Qi refining.

The last one to arrive turned out to be the host of the trip. After all four monks arrived, about an incense stick, a man was wearing a white robe, carrying a Qingfeng sword on his back, and an elite armor for self-defense. Stepping on a compass-shaped flying instrument, he lowered his figure very gracefully.

"The four fellow daoists were able to arrive on time. Geng is here to express his gratitude. The purpose of each fellow daoist is very clear. As long as you can successfully hunt and kill the monsters, each of you will be offered a blood essence pill, and you will never break your promise." The disciples started very straightforwardly.

However, the pride in his words and the contempt inadvertently revealed between his brows are unmistakable, especially when it comes to the essence and blood pills that the four casual cultivators regard as treasures.

Compared with these sect disciples who have the protection of the sect, the conditions of casual cultivators are more cruel in all aspects. They pay more attention to the practical interests, and they have not caused any waves of unhappiness caused by contempt.

"Since we are invited here, we will naturally go all out to hunt and kill monsters, but the first-level top-grade essence blood pill is related to our cultivation path, may Fellow Daoist Geng let me wait and see?" Very eager.

"What's the point of worrying about mere essence and blood pills? Everyone, let's check it out." The monk surnamed Geng contemptuously took out a jade bottle and poured four blood-red spirit pills out of it.

Chapter 101 Prelude to Hunting

For casual cultivators, Essence Blood Pill is a high-grade panacea used to break through bottlenecks in the late stage of Qi refining, but for Zongmen monks, this kind of panacea that needs to consume their own blood essence and background is obviously not the best choice.

Each sect has a kind of spiritual power pool specially used to help break through the bottleneck of the refining period. The spiritual power in it is extremely abundant, and according to the monk's own attributes, the spiritual power of the same attribute can be specially mobilized to assist when breaking through.

The most important thing is that a lot of precious spiritual materials need to be invested in the construction of the pool of spiritual power, which also helps monks break through the bottleneck and improve their cultivation base, and this promotion of cultivation base does not have any sequelae.

Of course, for most sects, the pool of spiritual power is only suitable for the Qi refining period, and the lifespan and number of uses of each pool of spiritual power are limited.

Therefore, the requirements for the use of the spiritual power pool in each sect are also extremely strict, and only through a large number of sect contribution points can they be exchanged for opportunities. The privilege of the pool of power.

Since there is a better choice, the disciples of the various sects naturally look down on the so-called first-order high-grade blood essence pills, which is also the main reason why the monk surnamed Geng is willing to exchange.

"The high-quality, first-grade high-grade essence blood pill is confirmed to be correct, fellow Taoists, do you want to check it?" Zhu Zhongsu asked the remaining three monks.

"Since Fellow Daoist has confirmed that it is correct, we still trust it."

"Since everyone has gathered, can you tell me the destination of this trip? It's better to make preparations in advance." The monk surnamed Shi did not answer the question, but asked a question that the four casual monks present were most concerned about.

Although Zhao Shoushou bought some inside information at a high price from Fatty Jia before, he didn't know anything about the location of the first-tier middle-grade Yingcrying Beast and some detailed clues, so he was also very concerned about the answer.

"The target of this trip is the Tier [-] mid-grade Yingtiao Beast, but there is no time to reveal the exact location yet," the monk surnamed Geng agreed happily.

"Although Yingtiao Beast is a mid-tier first-tier beast, it already possesses a level of combat power that is not inferior to ordinary first-tier top-tier monsters in terms of combat power."

"It seems that Zhu is about to bleed heavily during this trip, and it's unknown how much of this body fat will be left."

"If you knew in advance that Lu really had to think twice, the chance of surviving is only half and half."

Apparently the three monks who had been in the practice world for a long time knew something about this uncommon first-tier middle-grade warbling beast, even more detailed than Zhao Shoushou.

Judging from their reactions, the combat power of the first-tier mid-grade Yingtiao Beast is far more terrifying than he imagined, and I am afraid that the difficulty of this trip will also be doubled.

"There is no doubt about the preciousness of Essence Blood Pill. A certain breakthrough bottleneck can't be used at any time, but enough spirit stones can be exchanged in the market. If it weren't for the fact that Yingcry Beast is really difficult to deal with, how can you be willing to use Essence Blood Pill as a reward? If you Now I regret that as long as I swear a blood oath and promise not to disclose the news of the Yingcrowing Beast, I can choose to withdraw." The man surnamed Geng retorted bluntly, and he was also full of confidence in the first-order middle-grade essence blood pill.

Sure enough, no matter how unwilling the four casual cultivators were, none of them was willing to quit under the attraction of the Essence and Blood Pill.

As veterans who have been in the practice world for a long time, every monk understands the preciousness of this opportunity, and they are not allowed to regret it at all.

What's more, these monks who seem simple and honest but have treacherous hearts each have their own little plans. As long as the five monks can work together, as long as they are careful, the chance of danger will not be too great.

"Since all fellow Taoists are unwilling to leave, let's set off now. As long as we can hunt and kill the Yingqi Beast, Geng will do what he says. In addition to one blood essence pill for each person, there are also a hundred low-grade spirit stones to offer." Geng The monk surnamed said very generously.

Money can turn ghosts, and there must be brave men under heavy rewards. This sentence is also applicable to the cultivation world. As long as there are enough rewards, these normally submissive monks can instantly transform into fearless warriors.

Under the dual stimulation of Essence Blood Pill and Lingshi, a group of five people officially embarked on the journey of hunting the first-order mid-grade Yingqi Beast. Zhu Zhongsu, a fat man who wanted to be a ball but was very flexible, volunteered to be the striker.

Cultivators surnamed Lu and Cultivators surnamed Shi were in the middle, echoing back and forth. The man surnamed Geng undoubtedly occupied the safest position in the middle as the employer, and Zhao Shoushou was at the end of the team and was in charge of breaking the rear.

The Ziyu Mountains are the top-ranked monster paradise in Cormorant County, and even in the entire Xianzhou. Every step forward may be attacked by monsters.

Therefore, the two positions of forward and back in a team are naturally the most dangerous. Of course, after killing monsters together, the distribution of spoils naturally has the priority.

In the dangerous jungle, Zhao Shoushou naturally chose not to assign authority for a little loot, but wanted to have the opportunity to escape first.

The treacherous Zhu Zhongsu, who wanted to wear a pig face, also had the same thought. Facts have proved that as long as he can survive the first wave of unexpected attacks by monsters, the chances of surviving the front and the rear are even greater.

Zhao Shoushou and Zhu Zhongsu obviously had enough confidence in their own strength. I wonder if it was their luck that they didn't encounter a monster attack after a day's journey.

I don't know where the nest of the first-order middle-grade Yingtiao Beast is located. After two days of non-stop driving, they still haven't arrived at the destination, but it is clear that the goddess of luck will not be with them forever.

The monks who were resting under several unknown fruit trees that day did not realize that they had inadvertently broken into the territory of the first-level middle-grade monster beast Clawed Monkey.

The first-tier middle-grade clawed monkeys belong to a different category among monkey monsters. They are tall and strong, brave and aggressive, and fearless of death. Besides all kinds of delicious fruits, they like all kinds of meat the most. will hunt.

Another point to note is that the first-tier middle-grade clawed monkeys belong to social monsters, and each group occupies a fixed territory, ranging from a dozen to hundreds.

In the dense grass not far from them, more than a dozen clawed monkeys are carefully observing these uninvited guests who have usurped their homes. The leader is a male claw that is more than six feet tall and covered with lumpy muscles. monkey.

"Fellow daoists, be careful, the surrounding environment is too quiet, there is a high possibility of monsters appearing, if you have supernatural powers of investigation, please use it." Suddenly something seemed to be wrong, Zhao Shoushou reminded immediately.

Although there are many monsters living in the Purple Jade Mountains, the largest number are still all kinds of ordinary beasts. When I camped here, the roars of all kinds of beasts one after another were really annoying.

However, once in danger, it is also one of the most effective means of investigation. Now this kind of situation will only appear when facing some ferocious killing monsters. Cast a spell.

Chapter 102 The Difficult Clawed Monkey

Detective supernatural powers do not have substantial combat power, and there are not many inheritances, so there are not many monks who have this inheritance among casual cultivators.

One of the two monks with investigative supernatural powers was undoubtedly the monk surnamed Geng, and the other was the monk surnamed Lu who had been silent all this time.

The investigative supernatural power that the man surnamed Geng used was to turn the spiritual power in his body into a special pink mist with a hint of fragrance, and spread it around.

The monk surnamed Lu used a special method to condense the mana in his dantian into more than a dozen vivid butterflies, using it as a unique perspective for investigation.

The two supernatural powers have their own strengths, the former excels in being careful and conscientious, while the latter excels in responsiveness and quickness, and can discover hidden enemies without knowing it.

Of course, in the face of the current situation where unknown monsters may attack violently at any time, the effect of the investigation spells of monk surnamed Lu is obviously better.

Even Zhao Shoushou was still thinking that if he had the chance, he could try to talk to monk Lu, and pay some price in exchange for a reconnaissance spell.

In casual cultivators, as long as the spells are not related to the inheritance of the direct line, as long as the price is right, everything is within the tradable range. If you want to come to a monk with the surname Lu, you will not refuse, of course, the premise is that the price he pays cannot be refused.

"Twelve first-tier middle-grade clawed monkeys are peeping three hundred feet ahead." As expected, the monk surnamed Lu was the first to discover the whereabouts of the hidden monster.

The first-order middle-grade sharp-clawed monkey has a fierce reputation, and the monks present somewhat understood it, so they didn't show any signs of retreat or fear. Fat Zhu Zhongsu even had a look of eagerness to try.

Including the host of this trip, the man surnamed Geng, every monk has been immersed in the middle stage of the sixth level of Qi training for a long time, and they have made serious preparations before, so they are very confident in their fighting power.

They are willing to take the risk to hunt and kill Yingti Beast, the best of the first-tier middle-grade monsters, let alone the first-tier middle-rank Clawed Monkey, although they have a certain advantage in number.

A group of five monks had never met before, and they naturally knew nothing about their methods and abilities. If they fought against the Clawed Monkey, they would be able to cooperate better when facing the Orioles.

"Whether to fight or retreat, we should make a decision early, but Lao Zhu wants to fight these clawed monkeys. I heard that these guys like to collect mature spiritual fruits the most," Zhu Zhongsu said pointedly .

"Zhao agrees that the battle with the clawed monkey can be used as an advance rehearsal for dealing with the Yingqi beast. What do you think?" Zhao Shoushou's suggestion is entirely out of public interest.

Of course, the final decision is still for the man surnamed Geng to make the final decision. After all, he is the core and organizer of this temporary team, and he undoubtedly has the right to make a decision with one word.

"A group of clawed monkeys is nothing to worry about. It's a good choice to use as a touchstone, but Geng will not help in this battle, and of course he will not participate in the distribution of spoils." After thinking for a while, the man surnamed Geng finally agreed.

However, for some unknown reason, he was unwilling to participate in the battle. Zhao Shoushou had expected this situation in advance, but he became more certain after going through this trial.

Although the value of the first-rank middle-grade Yingtiao Beast is high, it is not worth four first-grade top-grade Essence and Blood Pills. The purpose of the man surnamed Geng must be the first-grade top-grade Mo Yelian, the holy medicine for healing.

Of course, Zhao Shoushou would not make the above guesses public, but he just made himself more vigilant in the battle, and he would be more careful when facing the Yingcrowing Beast.

"Since Fellow Daoist Geng is unwilling to make a move, then I will not be polite, and some clawed monkeys are nothing to worry about." After thinking about it, the four casual cultivators were still willing to make a fight.

Cooperating with each other is just a matter of convenience. The real killer and life-saving means will definitely not appear here. Their main purpose is the spiritual fruit collected in the clawed monkey's lair.

Although the first-order middle-grade clawed monkeys belong to the alien species among monkey monsters, they have perfectly inherited the habit of eating all kinds of delicious fruits, and they only eat spiritual fruits with strong spiritual power.

This also means that all the spiritual fruits that can be collected by them are at least the first-order middle-grade spirit fruits, and it is not surprising if there are first-order top-grade spirit fruits.

"Zhizhizhi" the four monks had just reached a consensus. The clawed monkeys who had been hiding three hundred feet away could no longer bear the irritability in their hearts. Under the leadership of the leader, they attacked the monks occupying their lair.

"Everyone, be careful, the clawed monkeys are coming." The short, thick and round Zhu Zhongsu showed fierceness, holding a stone stick as big as a thigh in his hand, facing the leader of the clawed monkeys and another strong clawed monkey. claw monkey.

The remaining three monks, including Zhao Shoushou, naturally went forward separately. The monk surnamed Shi Du alone fought against the other two clawed monkeys with stronger physiques. Talon monkey.

Clawed monkeys are fierce by nature, but their biggest reliance is their strong bodies. For some reason, they don't have awakened talent spells, so the difficulty of fighting is not too high.

Since the Clawed Monkey can gain a great reputation in the Ziyu Mountains and occupy a stable territory, its combat effectiveness cannot be underestimated.

The three first-tier middle-grade clawed monkeys fighting Zhao Shoushou were two in front and one behind, and the front two were especially fierce. One on the left and the other on the back attacked his vitals with claws that could split gold and break rocks.

The one behind him used his natural agility to jump up and down, and the angle of each attack was unexpected. This made him fall into a kind of inexplicable confusion and difficult to open the battle when he was fighting the clawed monkey for the first time.

As a monk with rich combat experience, Zhao Shoushou will naturally not be easily discouraged. Under his command, the first-level middle-grade dragon ring sword flies up and down, and the first-level middle-grade blue light shield turns into a streamer to provide stronger protection. .

The first-order middle-grade water snake technique that has always been the vanguard will naturally not lag behind, but unfortunately their defense and attack power did not play a big role in this battle.

Before the Water Snake Technique showed its power, it was easily torn apart by the three clawed monkeys, and turned into balls of clear water to moisten the earth again.

The other three war groups were also caught in the entanglement, and it took a short while to break through the situation, especially Zhu Zhongsu, who was the bravest, was already suppressed by the attack of two clawed monkeys.

Zhao Shoushou really couldn't understand why he hid his fighting power since he wanted to show off?Is it to make the monks present despise him?

As for the monk surnamed Geng who had never made a move while watching the battle, the contempt in his eyes became even more obvious when he saw the situation of the battle that was so close to victory.

From his point of view, if the brothers who are also on the sixth level of qi training in the sect make a move, this group of sharp clawed monkeys is just easy to catch. If it is not a last resort, why bother to deal with these useless loose cultivators?

"Hey, you're not dead yet!" At this moment, the clawed monkey who had been harassing and restraining Zhao Shoushou changed his combat method of one strike and retreated, and launched a more courageous attack at a faster speed after being repelled by the blue light shield .

Chapter 103 Exchange Spirit Stones for Spirit Fruits

Although he was a little surprised in the face of the sudden situation, he was more surprised. As long as he could break the situation where the three clawed monkeys joined forces to attack back and forth, the rest would naturally be a one-sided situation, and the battle situation would change from Start now.

Zhao Shoushou's body stepped back suddenly, closing the distance with the clawed monkey. At the same time, when the clawed monkey's attack was about to approach the back of the heart, he turned sideways in a small range to avoid the vital point.

At the same time, a strange light flashed around his body, forming a layer of khaki protective circle. Zhao Shoushou suddenly turned his shoulders from bottom to top, and slammed straight into the sharp claws that were shining with layers of cold light from the attack of the clawed monkey.

The earth-yellow halo that suddenly appeared was the first-order middle-grade talisman seal vajra technique, an earth attribute spell specially used for defense, and it was also purchased by Zhao Shoushou in various markets in the past two years.

The attack power of the first-tier mid-level Clawed Monkey is strong, but the defense power of the Vajra Technique is also excellent, which is why Zhao Shoushou dared to face the hard steel.

"Stab!" With the contact between the two sides, there was only a sound that seemed to be broken paper. Before he had any counterattack, the clawed monkey's gleaming claws had already pierced his shoulder.

Fortunately among the misfortunes, after the sharp claw forcibly broke through the blockage of the Vajra Technique, its strength was basically exhausted, leaving only a long-lasting wound on his shoulder.

Since he wanted to stay and open the situation even though he was injured, Zhao Shoushou naturally would not give up this rare opportunity. Under his impact, the clawed monkey could no longer control its body and flip freely in the air.

No matter how sensitive his original figure was, at this moment, he could only watch helplessly as a sharp dragon-ringed knife pierced his soft abdomen.

All this seemed very natural, exactly like the clawed monkey lost all consciousness during the battle and sent it to the door by itself to hit the tip of the knife with its soft belly.

It was sooner or later, under his careful calculation, everything happened in an instant, and the two clawed monkeys who were the main attackers were blocked by the blue light shield, and there was no time to rescue them.

The first-tier mid-grade dragon ring sword flashed past, and the first-tier mid-grade clawed monkey was disembowelled without any resistance, and its internal organs poured down with stinky blood.

"Zhizhizhi" the remaining two clawed monkeys suddenly fell into rage, waving their claws frantically and attacking. Obviously, the accidental death of their companions had already aroused the most primitive emotions in their hearts.

"The emergence of minor injuries in exchange for a turn in the battle situation, a decisive heart is a good casual cultivator, and it should be the main combat power to hunt and kill the warbling beast." The monk surnamed Geng who was watching the battle nodded silently, obviously because of Zhao Shoushou's combat power , very satisfied.

"Crazy stick method, break" Not long ago, Zhu Zhongsu, who had been fighting with the leader of the clawed monkey, seemed to have adapted to the monster's attack method and strength, and his combat method suddenly changed with a shout.

Every attack is to put death to death, and the ferocious aura it shows, for a while, frightens the clawed monkey, which is famous for its fearlessness of death, and binds its hands and feet.

Under the ferocious attack, good results were quickly achieved, and by surprise, the left lower limb of another paw monkey was broken with a stick.

Soon the remaining two casual cultivators also used their relatively strong housekeeping skills to open up the situation, as if Zhao Shoushou's beheading of the first clawed monkey was a signal that the situation of the battle had begun to change.

"Water scroll technique, start" Zhao Shoushou, who had finally achieved the result, would not give up this good situation easily. Facing the attacks of two clawed monkeys, while counterattacking with magic weapons, the first-level mid-level water scroll technique also to be excited.

Under the effect of magic power, the wind blows on the ground, and the water that was originally scattered in the sky and the earth is slowly condensed together. The water droplets grow from nothing, and the water flow changes from small to large. All these changes are very rapid.

In less than a cup of tea, a water scroll composed of powerful and powerful water flows took shape, just like a common tornado, and was swallowed by the two clawed monkeys before they could react.

The first-order middle-grade water scroll technique mainly exploits and strangles the monsters swallowed in it layer by layer through the suppressing power of the water flow. It can play a better role in some monsters with relatively weak bodies.

On the contrary, the effect against the clawed monkeys, which are famous for their physical strength, is naturally unsatisfactory. Although it does not have enough lethality, it is enough to entangle the enemy and make them dizzy.

It is self-evident what it means to be dizzy for a while in such a fierce battle, so from the beginning of the water scroll technique, Zhao Shoushou was fully prepared.

The first-tier middle-grade Dragon Ring Broadsword and the Qingguang Shield, with one attack and one defense, are ready to attack with all their strength. In addition, a transparent silk thread-shaped magic weapon on his wrist is also about to move.

"Hahaha, what a trick of the water scroll technique, the two clawed monkeys turned into bald monkeys, and Geng died laughing." Suddenly, a hearty laugh came from the place where the monk surnamed Geng lived.

It turned out that after the water scroll technique disappeared, two naked bald monkeys appeared in front of the monks. This result was beyond everyone's expectation, including the instigator himself.

"Cough cough" The astonished scene kept him from panting and coughing continuously, but the dragon ring sword that had been prepared earlier did not hesitate, and the two big monkey heads were still chopped off with a hearty flying.
