Practice begins with a fisherman

"The waves in the outer sea are rough. It is not easy to find a suitable spiritual island. Fortunately, I have this chart in advance for reference." Zhao Shoushou took out a chart triumphantly, and after confirming the approximate range according to the surrounding area, the wave breaking boat A flicker has turned to go.

Because he didn't know much about the environment here when he first arrived in the sea, Zhao Shoushou's goal at the beginning was to take the lead in choosing some small islands on the outskirts to try his hand at it.

According to the difference of the monsters inhabiting the periphery of each spiritual island, after some simple screening, three miniature spiritual islands were initially selected, namely Crab Island, Shrimp Island, and Water Spray Island.

The naming of these miniature spiritual islands can be described as simple and random, most of which are determined according to the types of sea animals living around the islands. Only the fountain island is famous for one of the gurgling natural fountains.

This fountain is right in the center of the spirit vein, and the water produced contains a lot of spiritual power. Unfortunately, the spirit vein of the tiny island is only a middle-grade first-grade, and it is located in the open sea with a high degree of danger, so it has not been used. Taking advantage of it, it has gradually become a place where many sea beasts play.

Because of the existence of the spiritual spring, this island has an inexplicable attraction to sea beasts. There are often different types of sea beasts circling around. The second-level middle and low-level monsters can be seen everywhere, and the second-level top-level is not uncommon. Beasts can also be seen occasionally.

If we simply compare the number of sea beasts, this place was second to none at the time, but Zhao Shoushou is weak, and he has no choice but to give up in the face of Water Spray Island, which is far superior in quantity and quality.

The other two Shrimp Islands and Crab Islands are good choices. The two miniature spiritual islands are mainly populated by two types of sea animals, the second-order low-grade Golden Crab and the Rainbow Shrimp.

Among them, the golden crab is a kind of mutant crab with good defense and attack power. The most obvious feature is a golden carapace and a pair of sharp and powerful claws unique to crab-like sea beasts. Especially greedy, once it smells the scent of the lure weed, it will definitely be the first monster to take the bait.

The Rainbow Shrimp, on the contrary, does not have too much power. The only attack method is a row of ten thumb-sized mutated eyes between the foreheads, which can emit a kind of strange light. If they cannot dodge in time, it will cause damage to the meridian No small damage.

And this kind of sea beast is best at long-distance flying, and a powerful jump can fly a distance of at least [-] meters. If they can't prepare in advance, their chances of escaping are quite high.

The Rainbow Shrimp was also Zhao Shoushou's first target sea beast. According to the records in some jade slips, its inner alchemy was quite pure, and it could almost be directly refined as a panacea.

After the wave breaking boat turned around, it was moving quickly towards Xia Island. Now he is just praying, hoping that Xia Island will still stand above the sea and never disappear.

For the rough sea, the disappearance of the island is nothing more than a common thing, whether it is a crazy sea beast or the erosion of sea water, it may cause the disappearance of the island.

Compared with the safe and accurate charts, the open sea can only be used as a reference, and in the open sea without accurate marks, it is common to lose the sense of direction. It is not [-]% sure whether Zhao Shoushou can find Shrimp Island. But split it between five and five.

"According to the sea chart, Shrimp Island should be within a radius of a hundred miles. Why is there no trace?" Zhao Shoushou looked at the endless sea in front of him, and was a little stunned. After searching for nothing, he could only turn around and leave Xiang Go in the direction of Crab Island.

There are a large number of second-tier low-grade golden armor crabs located in the outskirts of the sea. They are the first target of most monks. The supply in the market is relatively sufficient. Compared with other sea beasts of the same level, the price is about [-]%, but it is better than hunting. Killing is relatively less difficult.

In addition, although the demon pill of the Golden Armored Crab contains a trace of impurities, it is pure water. It only needs to get rid of the impurities before it can be refined, which is of great help to the improvement of cultivation.

There is also a hidden danger in the direct refining of this kind of demon pills. The number of refining each kind of demon pills cannot exceed a hundred. Once there are too many, an inexplicable resistance will be generated in the meridians and dantian.

Therefore, for most overseas monks, they will use demon pills as the main raw material and refine them into panacea pills, which will greatly reduce the occurrence of this situation.

Fortunately, there are a large number of various sea beasts in the overseas practice world, which can make up for this deficiency to the greatest extent, but it cannot become a shackle that prevents them from improving their cultivation.

According to some statistics, there are tens of thousands of different types of sea beasts currently registered in the overseas cultivation world, and new sea beasts are constantly being discovered every year. Some great supernatural beings speculate that the known types are even less than [-]% of the number of sea beasts. One, this shows the horror in it.

"It's easier to search for Crab Island. The lush trees all over the island make me feel refreshed. I wonder how much I can gain here?" Looking at a small island not far away, Zhao Shoushou finally felt relieved.

The most important point is that judging from the current situation, there are no other monks on the famous Crab Island for the time being, and he can occupy this place to hunt monsters.

In fact, another major difficulty in hunting monsters in the open sea is the scramble for spirit islands. Different types of sea beasts live in different sea areas, and some known and relatively safe islands have become popular spots for monks to scramble for. Fierce battles ensued.

If Crab Island had already been occupied and the arrangement of the formation was completed, Zhao Shoushou could only choose to leave. After all, first-timers still needed to be cautious.

The area of ​​Crab Island is about 350 kilometers in radius. It may be because the monks come and go frequently. Except for a first-level top-grade spiritual vein, there are no other valuable treasures. Of course, some traces left over from the battle still exists.

"Crab Island will be the place where Mr. Zhao started his adventures in the open sea. I hope everything goes well and everything goes well. The road to Jindan will start from here."

Chapter 294: A Little Trial of Hunting Golden Crabs

Half a day after setting foot on Crab Island, Zhao Shoushou just selected a location close to the coast as a place to hunt and kill second-tier low-grade golden-armoured crabs.

As far as the entire island is concerned, this is not the best location, and it is even quite different from the previous hunting place occupied by the monks. The effect of the demon-attracting grass must be greatly reduced.

However, Zhao Shoushou has his own plans. As a native mainland monk, he only got everything here from some jade slips and rumors. All need to start from scratch.

Another most important point is that Zhao Shoushou has no clear understanding of the effect of the demon-attracting grass. Wouldn't it be cool if the 300-year-old demon-attracting grass attracts a large number of golden-armored crabs?

After enough attempts, with the understanding of the relevant situation here, and under the condition of ensuring safety, the selected location can naturally be replaced, and all that is required is some time to rearrange the formation. and energy.

"Based on the second-tier middle-grade Tianfengyanyu array, combined with the second-tier middle-grade Gushan array for defense, some golden-armored crabs should be easy to catch." After gaining a detailed understanding of the surrounding terrain, Zhao Shoushou began to choose a suitable location Start the layout of the array.

The two sets of formations, one attacking and one defending, are based on mutual cooperation, plus some previous experience in arranging desert oasis formation flags, everything went quite smoothly.

The Heavenly Wind, Misty Rain Formation utilizes two completely different forces of feng shui. Once a monster enters it, it will always encounter densely packed indiscriminate attacks, and these attacks will directly act on the meridians in the monster's body.

The function of the solid mountain formation is simple and easy to understand. It uses the characteristics of earth attribute spiritual power to be good at defense to create a pure defense circle. It is really difficult to break through without enough strength, just like a hard turtle shell Same, of course, if we simply compare the defensive power, it must be an excellent existence in the same level.

The two formations were purchased from Qingyun Pavilion at a high price, and they were specially prepared to be used to hunt monsters. Two days later, the two formations composed of formation flags were completed, and Zhao Shoushou sat cross-legged in them and worked hard to refine them. Looking at the thin spiritual power around him, he hoped to restore his mana to its peak state in the shortest possible time.

Amidst all the busy preparations, time passed by little by little. After making all the preparations, Zhao Shoushou's first sea beast hunting operation in the open sea can be officially launched.

He carefully took out a spirit grass with eight leaves, chose a well-prepared spirit site, and with the sufficient supply of 11 yuan middle-grade spirit stones around, it soon emitted a special smell. It has a slight fragrance, mixed with an inexplicable stench, and occasionally a hint of sweetness in the middle. It seems to be a special existence that combines various flavors. It is the famous demon-attracting grass.

When the special smell drifted away along the sea breeze, Zhao Shoushou kept a close eye on the movement on the sea surface. Once a sea beast took the bait, he must immediately cut off the spread of the demon-attracting grass smell.

However, he obviously didn't have much confidence in how the effect would be, especially in the case that he chose a relatively hidden place, whether he could finally attract the Golden Armored Crab to appear as planned, really didn't have much confidence grasp.

A cup of tea, a stick of incense, a quarter of an hour, half an hour, even though the demon lure grass was fully blooming with its own unique flavor under the support of sufficient spiritual power, there was never a single sea beast that made his eyebrows frown. Wrinkled unnaturally.

"Could it be that Qingyun Pavilion sells a fake spiritual herb to someone Zhao? Why doesn't this smell, which is said to be unstoppable by sea beasts, have any effect? ​​Is it really necessary to take out a second spiritual herb?" Zhao Shoushou's tone already had There is no impatience in it.

According to Qingyun Pavilion's introduction at the beginning, once the 300-year-old demon-attracting grass appears, sea beasts will definitely take the bait within a quarter of an hour. There is no good plan for the current embarrassing situation.

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo" at this moment, a special sound suddenly appeared in my ears, and above the calm sea surface, a piece of golden light was quietly floating.

A pair of sharp and powerful pincers came out of the water and closed and closed as if to show their unique power. This is the second-grade low-grade sea beast Golden Armor Crab that he has been waiting for for a long time.

"Only a second-tier low-grade golden-armoured crab appeared, and it happened to be used to try it out." Facing the fierce beast, Zhao Shoushou was not only not nervous, but showed a look of relief.

I saw puffing out my cheeks, standing behind the lure grass and blowing out a breath of cool air, accompanied by a burst of strong smell drifting in the direction of the golden crab.

The sea beast, which was moving forward without any haste, suddenly increased its speed under the influence of the lure grass, and kept waving its pair of large pincers wildly, as if expressing its eagerness to enjoy the delicious food in its heart.

Under the special effect of the demon-attracting grass, the sea beast, which had only a trace of clarity, became completely crazy, and a pair of round eyes shot out crazy light.

"Great formation, wind and rain appear, order" After the Golden Armored Crab entered the range of the second-tier middle-grade Tianfengyanyu formation, only Zhao Shoushou yelled, and the originally empty island suddenly turned into a formation. A stormy scene.

Wisps of breeze accompanied by traces of drizzle, condensed into attacks with special power. This kind of attack power that penetrates all the way to the meridians did not have much impact on the rough-skinned and thick-fleshed golden-armored crab at the beginning.

Even the golden-armored crab just shook its head for a while and seemed to have adapted to the new environment, especially when it saw the demon-attracting grass not far away, it didn't care about other things, and saw that its leap was already approaching the location of the spirit grass .

"The solid mountain rises and is indestructible." A scornful smile appeared on Zhao Shoushou's face. When the Golden Armored Crab was about to approach the spirit grass, a solid stone wall appeared in time with the shaking of the ground when there was no time left.

When the Golden Crab was in close contact with the stone wall, Zhao Shoushou, who had been waiting for a long time, naturally would not waste this rare opportunity. The second-tier low-grade Thunderbolt Hammer, which is best at frontal attacks, was already eager to try. on the head.

At the same time, the second-tier middle-grade water diversion fork also seized this rare opportunity. When the Golden Armored Crab was entangled with the Sky Hammer, it quietly appeared on its relatively soft abdomen, and a violent blunt blow directly knocked it over. on the ground.

Naturally, it is not so easy for the Golden Armor Crab to occupy a stable territory in the open sea full of risks. All this is just a sneak attack before it wakes up from the smell of the lure weed.

With the awakening of the Golden Crab, the battle is constantly changing. The sea beast that was attacked for no reason can be described as unprecedentedly angry. A pair of large pincers comparable to second-order low-grade spiritual weapons swung a sledgehammer fiercely into the air and fell again. On the contrary, at the same time, a stream of water with a peculiar smell spewed out of the mouth and became entangled with the water diversion fork.

Chapter 295 Spirit Insect - Red Spotted Flying Ant

Although Zhao Shoushou didn't know the details of this inexplicable water flow, judging from the fact that the golden armored crab has a thin carapace and can entangle with the water diversion fork, it is obvious that this is one of its killer features.

When each monster is promoted to the second-level low-rank, in addition to the normal spiritual comprehension, it will also comprehend a killer weapon through the preliminarily purified blood.

As for the specific form and power of the killer's mace, on the one hand, it depends on the attributes of the monster, and on the other hand, it depends on the strong blood of the monster's atavistic blood.

"A strand of spiritual water of excellent quality is rare to see. I don't know if there is a special water sac in its abdomen." After a preliminary identification of the spiritual water, Zhao Shoushou showed a joyful look on his face.

For water attribute monks, apart from spirit pills, all kinds of pure and unpolluted spiritual water can improve their cultivation. Refining the essence can also play a big role without any side effects.

It's a pity that the number of various spiritual waters in the cultivation world is really pitifully small, and even if there are some, they are basically occupied by the major sects, and Zhao Shoushou and other casual cultivators are obviously out of luck.

It is said that among some famous sects there is a special extravagant way of cultivation, in which the whole body can be immersed in spiritual water for continuous refining. It only takes ten years for a monk to go from the early stage of foundation establishment to the late stage of foundation establishment.

Of course, this is just a beautiful legend spread among the casual cultivators. Even if it has such a miraculous effect, no one would be willing to pay such a high price to train a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator.

If he could harvest some pure spiritual water from the belly of this golden-armored crab, it would be an unexpected harvest for him.

After murmuring, "It's easy to find nowhere to go through the iron shoes", Zhao Shoushou couldn't help speeding up the attack frequency and strength of the spirit weapon in his hand.

In addition to the spiritual water in the Golden Armored Crab, another treasure is the water bag used to store the spiritual water. This rare treasure can ensure the purity of the spiritual water, and it will not be easily polluted by any sundries and reduce the quality of the spiritual water. This is especially important for most spiritual waters.

When Zhao Shoushou realized that he might get two valuable treasures by killing this golden crab, one can imagine the eagerness in his heart. The sea beast in front of him seemed to have turned into a shining gold ingot .

The sea beasts are trapped in the formation, and once the monks get serious, their doomsday will come. After Zhao Shoushou's crazy attack and the combination of wind and rain, they are eroded all the time. It is also not sustainable.

Especially when he sacrificed the third second-tier low-grade spiritual weapon acid wood bow, the attack power of each attack is not strong, but it is better in speed and agility, and it is also very effective in restraining the golden armor crab.

"It's just a piece of spiritual water, how can it not be broken?" About a quarter of an hour into the battle, Zhao Shoushou shouted loudly, and suddenly shot out a golden light from the water diversion fork, trying to break up the entangled spiritual water.

Then, taking advantage of this rare opportunity, they swarmed up and firmly fixed the fist-sized head deep in the carapace of the golden crab to the ground so that it was difficult to move.

The defense of the golden crab is mainly reflected in its hard carapace. Once the head is controlled, it naturally means that the battle is coming to an end. After a cup of tea, there is a whine, and the golden crab is motionless for an instant, without any resistance. force.

"This is the easiest golden crab to deal with? Its combat power is much higher than that of the desert lizard. If it is not for the power of the formation, it is quite difficult to kill it, and it will take a lot of money. It's finally time to harvest." Thinking of this, a look of excitement finally appeared on his face.

Except for the demon core, a second-tier low-grade golden-armored crab is also valuable. At least 50 yuan of middle-grade spirit stones can be exchanged, which can be regarded as a small supplement.

At the very least, it can make up for some consumption during the battle, such as the consumption of spiritual power used to support the formation flag, and the consumption of talismans on the other hand.

In fact, the consumption of talismans in the battle of hunting sea beasts is the real big expense, but it was never used in the first battle to measure the combat power of the golden armored crab, otherwise a second-level middle-grade sky fire talisman would have already killed it. Turn into big braised crab.

After about a quarter of an hour, the golden-shelled crab, which has been so huge, has cramped according to different parts, and after peeling off the skin, there are more than ten large pieces of meat left.

"The best blood food can only be cheaper for you little guys." There was a buzzing sound as he flicked his hands, and about a hundred rice worms the size of sesame seeds flew out, lying on the golden armor. It was a joy to devour the crab's flesh and blood afterwards.

These more than a hundred small insects are the eggs found on the spiritual veins of the desert oasis. After a detailed comparison with a large number of jade slips, they are a kind of spiritual insects called "red-spotted flying ants" .

Because of the lack of spiritual nourishment, these little guys hatched just yesterday. They belong to a variant of ant-like monsters, and they have inherited the biggest characteristic of ant-like monsters, which is that they almost eat everything.

These spirit insects are not too rare, and their combat power ranks in the middle among the same level, and they mainly win by numbers. If they can cultivate a swarm of tens of thousands of spirit insects, even Jindan stage monks will have to stay away.

It's a pity that these little guys are like big eaters who can never get enough to eat. It is really difficult to cultivate them into a swarm of spirit insects.

A quarter of an hour later, under the efforts of the red-spotted flying ants, the flesh and blood of the golden-armored crabs were being wiped out almost at a speed visible to the naked eye. There is still a hint of anticipation coming from outside.

After the red-spotted flying ants reach adulthood, they are generally first-tier spirit insects. Among them, those with the best aptitude may break through the bottleneck and be promoted to second-tier spirit insects. Of course, this may take several years.

For Zhao Shoushou, the most important thing at present is to cultivate these hundreds of red-spotted flying ants to the mature stage as soon as possible under the cultivation of sufficient blood food, which can provide a helping hand in the battle, and the other point is to breed new egg shells as soon as possible .

Among the more than a hundred larvae, male and female account for half and half. As long as they reach maturity, each pair of spirit worms can produce ten new larvae, thus entering a new cycle of reincarnation.

These spirit insects have only one chance to give birth to their young eggs in their lifetime. After completing the task, they can join the battle as the best auxiliary force. If all goes well, he will have at least five hundred red-spotted flying ants in one year, forming a small Perhaps when the trip to the open sea is coming to an end, only a huge group of spirit insects can deal with some difficult sea beasts.

Of course, these are just good wishes for everything to go well. Whether it can be successfully formed in the end depends on whether he can stand out from the difficulties and obstacles in the end.

"It's really a sane golden crab. It still has half the storage capacity of spiritual water. It's cheaper for Mr. Zhao. After refining the spiritual water, it can at least be equivalent to the help of three second-level low-grade spirit pills." Looking at the bag of blue sac in his hand Zhao Shoushou said quite informatively about the spiritual water in the water.

Chapter 296 The Difficult Manatee Beast

In addition, a thumb-sized sky-blue demon pill in the palm of the hand is also shining with dazzling light, and a pocket-sized golden-armored crab-shaped elf is wandering freely on it. Judging from its condensed figure, this demon pill The quality is still good, and it has a good value.

In addition, the carapace of the monster and the two large pincers are stored in different storage bags. These two materials can be used to refine spirit weapons, and they are considered to be of some value.

Fortunately, Zhao Shoushou has always believed in the principle of the three caves of the cunning rabbit, and he has a lot of storage bags on his body, otherwise these treasures will have to be discarded and wasted in the future, which is absolutely unacceptable to him.

After resting for two days, Zhao Shoushou, who had recovered to his peak state, started the next round of hunting. Under his perfect control, every time a golden crab appeared, it could not cause too much trouble at all. It can be beheaded by three times, five times and two divisions.

Time passed in the process of hunting and busying, and with the increasing familiarity with the battles with golden crabs, some of their weaknesses were also revealed little by little.

Now that the sea beast's weakness has been mastered, it is relatively easy to fight. Occasionally, some special attacks targeting the weakness will explode and multiply the lethality against the sea beast.

Among them, the quickest attack is a one-hit kill. With the help of the formation, the second-level middle-grade water diversion fork pierces its soft abdomen in one fell swoop.

In the blink of an eye, Zhao Shoushou had been wandering on the crab island for several months, and there were not a hundred or eighty golden crabs that fell on his hands.

The location where the formation was originally arranged has also been changed twice. During this period, some monks were wandering around, but when they found that Zhao Shoushou was waiting in the formation, they all chose to leave decisively when they were not sure of victory. .

Golden-armored crabs are relatively easy to hunt among sea beasts of the same level, but this does not mean that they will be willing to wait for the slaughter, and some dangers and injuries are inevitable during the battle.

The most dangerous one was when three golden-armored crabs entered the formation at the same time under the influence of the demon-attracting grass. Under their desperate struggle, the originally impregnable formation had some obvious shaking and cracks in desperation.

The two sets of formations are necessary for hunting sea beasts in the next few years. Zhao Shoushou will naturally not let them be damaged easily. Finally, under his efforts, the three sea beasts died one by one.

Of course, he also suffered serious injuries. He suffered a dying blow from one of the golden-armored crabs on his abdomen, almost piercing through the front and back, leaving only a thin layer of fleshy skin connected, which looked extremely terrifying.

A big battle almost exhausted the mana in his dantian, and the injury barely healed after a month of treatment. Since then, Zhao Shoushou has been cautious, preferring to prolong the frequency of tempting golden-armored crabs, but also to ensure his own safety.

Whenever a sea beast appeared, he always blocked the Demon-Luring Grass with mana in a timely and accurate manner. Everything went smoothly, and he never encountered too many dangers in the later battles.

"I didn't expect these spiritual waters to be of great help to trauma, but unfortunately they have been exhausted. It seems that I need to find a trading place to replenish some consumables in the near future." Looking at the empty pockets, Zhao Shoushou couldn't help showing a look of pity .

During the continuous months of fighting, only two or three golden-armored crabs contributed a small amount of spiritual water, which has been consumed up to this day even after repeated savings.

Although the scale of all battles is strictly controlled, the consumption of some talismans and spirit pills is unavoidable, and there are basically few preparations left so far.

In addition, after nearly a year of adaptation, Zhao Shoushou is also ready to change a target, and the value of the golden-armored crab has been greatly reduced no matter how you look at it.

According to his plan, if there is no accident, he will pack up and leave this famous crab island in the near future. The next goal is still the second-order low-grade sea beast rainbow shrimp that he was looking for but never found.

Accurate information was obtained from some monks who happened to pass by. The disappearing Shrimp Island has reappeared. In addition, five islands of different sizes have appeared in the surrounding area, all of which are excellent places for hunting monsters.
