Practice begins with a fisherman

Chapter 464

The two cormorants have been stuck at the peak cultivation level of the second-order low-grade for decades. They came with him this time to find an opportunity to break through the bottleneck and achieve the promotion of cultivation.

In fact, for many sea beasts or spirit beasts with limited aptitude, their situation is quite normal, but Zhao Shoushou is not willing to give up easily, hoping to find some good opportunities.

In the process of moving forward to establish a patrol line, Zhao Shoushou did not forget that in addition to searching for the corpses of some second-level high-grade poisonous insects to exchange for points, the search for various treasures is also indispensable.

From the surface, the entire subsidence area can be said to be unobstructed, without any obstacles to cover it, and apart from a large amount of stinky mud, there is not even a breath of life.

Faced with the barrier of layers of silt accumulated over the years, even the divine sense cannot discover too much, perhaps only when the distance between the two sides is really close enough, there is a slight possibility of discovery.

Of course, the elixir that can grow in this subsidence area is some uncommon eccentric elixir, and their effects are mostly similar, but it is unknown whether he can find some of what he wants in the end.

However, all the thoughts generated by these momentary worries and thoughts are just a flash in the mind, and nothing can be a reason to stop him from moving forward. The establishment of the patrol line is imminent, and there cannot be any Hesitation and hesitation.

In fact, when all the teams started to establish patrol lines at the first position, three monks and three sea beasts were confronting each other in the tens of thousands of feet of high altitude.

It may be a little inaccurate to say that it is a confrontation. They look very familiar, and the main purpose may be to prevent the other party from making random moves.

"We have known each other for hundreds of years, why don't we have a drink together in the company of this cool breeze, and wouldn't it be just right to leave the next battle to the younger generation?" A snow wolf with snow-white hair all over its body spoke out. The lethal and powerful cold wind in the sky couldn't even shake his hair.

"Fellow Daoist Wolf is right. How can the contention of the younger generation affect our friendship? Fellow Daoist, please." A kind-hearted old man with white beard and hair appeared in front of him as he waved his hands. Pot of steaming hot tea.

Zhao Shoushou, who was fighting the poisonous beast, was clearly not aware of all the changes in the sky, and all his targets were on the poisonous beast that appeared in front of him.

At this time, under his leadership, the five monks had advanced a considerable distance, more than half of the distance from the center of the subsidence area.

Generally speaking, this subsidence area is located on the outskirts of Lingdao, and the various environments are relatively barren, but there are naturally some special places that can become a breeding ground for poisonous beasts.

The No.18 team led by Zhao Shoushou started off smoothly, but now it has turned into a war of attrition against poisonous insects and beasts. What they are facing now is a nest of mutated praying mantises the size of a palm living in the mud.

The leader is a pair of second-tier top-grade praying mantises, a pair of powerful and sharp tongs, the lethality cannot be underestimated, and a black mutated carapace, which can weaken most attacks to a certain extent.

The strength of the two mutated praying mantises is not too outstanding in the same level, but the cooperation in the battle is quite tacit, which caused him a lot of trouble for a while.

The attack power of the second-tier high-grade flying sword is slightly inferior, and its lethality against the mutant mantis is extremely limited. The heavy-duty mace that is good at piercing armor is also far behind in its sensitivity. It's unbelievable.

The remaining five or six praying mantises were entangled with other monks of the No.18 team and two cormorants. The two sides fought fiercely in a short period of time, and it was hard to tell the winner.

However, in terms of safety, it is also safe. The two mutated praying mantises will not have much impact on him, and the seemingly stalemate of the battle is still under his control.

"The praying mantis is tough, but it's not unexpected, but the real killer should be hiding under this spiritual grass, and is preparing for a surprise attack?" Zhao Shoushou murmured, but the movements of his hands were abnormal. Quickly and swiftly, with a complicated pinch of both hands, a bird with one-element heavy water as its body and mana as its flesh and soul has appeared vividly.

"Chirp Chirp" accompanied by a crisp bird song, the newly appeared little guy flapped his wings, and his figure quickly disappeared across the barriers of space. There is only a small white thing like a silkworm with the length of the thumb.

This is a mana imitation spirit technique that Zhao Shoushou recently comprehended after he was promoted to the ninth floor of the foundation building. It mainly uses the monk's mana to transform into various vivid animal shapes and attack from a distance.

Seemingly simple, it can only be done when a monk has a fine-grained control over his own magic power. It is a double test of strength and spiritual knowledge.

This special spiritual technique has two advantages: First, it can exercise the monk's control over mana from the invisible, which is very important in the process of condensing the golden core.

Second: Using the beast state as an extended means of attack can make one's own strength more smoothly displayed, and there is no sense of stagnation at all in the envoy, just like today's battle.

"The culprit has been arrested, and the hide-and-seek game should be over. Sword points, go." It turned out that all the previous entanglements were just illusions. Only Zhao Shoushou gave an order, and the flying sword that had never done anything in the air turned into a phantom , one flickering in the air and one splitting into two sword shadows.

The original hard double pincers of the two mutated praying mantises have not had time to swing, but they are just entwined, and the two huge heads have already shot up into the sky.

"Three second-tier high-grade poisonous insects can be exchanged for one and a half points, and a thousand-year-old yellow crane poisonous weed is also a worthwhile trip, but unfortunately it is too partial. I don't know when I can exchange it for some good treasures." Satisfied, of course there are still some second-tier middle and lower-grade spirit herbs nearby, which are distributed to other monks.

After all, in the next battle, it is completely impossible to fight alone with one person alone. Aren't these elixirs of lower grade and quality the best reward?

Sure enough, under the encouragement of the elixir, the monks' faces were flushed after a battle, and they kept urging Zhao Shoushou to move on. It seemed that he was not the same person as he was perfunctory before.

In fact, the area of ​​the entire subsidence area is not that big. According to the requirements of the Spirit Island Alliance, a patrol line was established in one-third of the area. With the efforts of the No.18 team, it was roughly formed after half a month.

Of course, the harvest is also essential, all kinds of second-tier top-grade poisonous insects and beasts hunted 19 to exchange for [-] points, and five second-tier top-grade elixir.

Chapter 465

From the beginning of the war to the present, Zhao Shoushou has successfully exchanged ten points in total, plus the six second-rank top-grade spiritual grasses in his hand. It is worth a lot and has some nice rewards.

In addition to Zhao Shoushou himself, this point can also be understood from the satisfied expressions on the faces of other monks, but unfortunately there is still a little gap with the original expectation.

Whether it's points or elixir, it doesn't have much effect on it in a short period of time. What Zhao Shoushou urgently needs now is the treasures of heaven and earth that can help increase the success rate of congealing golden elixirs. The harvest in his hands is obviously not enough one chip.

Although I have been searching for similar treasures of heaven, material and earth since I was promoted to the late stage of Foundation Establishment, my income has always been limited, and there is only one piece of blood essence that is still in between, and the effect varies from person to person. This is obviously far from satisfying. of his needs.

Although it is dangerous to come to the core of the extermination sea beast tide this time, it is also a good opportunity to go. It can be foreseen that if there is no income here, the remaining lifespan in the future may be consumed on the road back and forth.

Taking the 300-year lifespan of a normal monk in the late stage of foundation establishment, he has already consumed more than half of it, so he needs to reserve enough time to try to break through the bottleneck. Generally speaking, it ranges from ten years to thirty years, leaving him Time is running out.

This is also forcing him to gain something during this trip. The originally planned arrangement of going out to snatch opportunities must be implemented in advance and cannot be delayed any longer.

According to the original plan, in the first ten days of patrolling the area, he was going to focus on cultivating in the subsidence area. Unfortunately, judging from the current situation, the chances of producing some real genius treasures here are already very small.

I don't know if it's a coincidence, but Zhao Shoushou hadn't formally gone to explore in the middle of the night, and there was a soft blue light in the seaside area.

There seems to be a special rhythm in the light, one can feel refreshed when looking at it, and feel relaxed when smelling it, even if they are so far apart, one can feel a burst of relaxation coming from the body.

"The real treasure has appeared, so how can I miss it?" Zhao Shoushou had an inexplicable smile on his indifferent face. Although he didn't know the details of it at present, he knew that it was a rare treasure.

However, just judging from the halo that spread, it must be quite difficult to compete for the treasure this time. Such a conspicuous halo might be felt by all the monks on the entire spirit island.

What's more, on this spiritual island, it is not monks who take the initiative. Some sea beasts in the core area also have a lot of pursuit of treasures.

Presumably, there must be some high-level sea beasts that are more sensitive and demanding for treasures. Not to mention the battle for treasures, there must be a small climax of the battle between the monks and the sea beasts.

Some sea beasts with a temperament that escapes fear of chaos in the world are willing to go even if they don't have much demand for treasures. After all, for them, the flesh and blood of monks is not the best blood food.

Of course, apart from blood food, for all sea beasts, every monk is the best delicacy for walking. The higher the cultivation level, the more delicious the taste after the body is purified by mana.

In fact, when the monks were hunting sea beasts, the sea beasts had the same idea, but the final result was just to see who had the better skills.

"How can Mr. Zhao waste such a lively scene in vain? Even if you can't get treasures, wouldn't it be great if you have the opportunity to hunt and kill one or two precious spirit beasts?" In his plan, no matter what the final result is, this trip None of them will return empty-handed.

As expected, about a quarter of an hour later, Zhao Shoushou arrived at the destination, which is located at the junction of Lingdao and the sea.

When he arrived, about thirty or so monks were confronting a similar number of sea beasts. The only difference from the past was that the quality of both sea beasts and monks here was quite high. later stage.

Among them, more than a dozen monks headed by the nine-story foundation, surrounded by the monks and sea beasts, is a sand clam that is slowly flapping its back shells, and when the two back shells are opened, there are bursts of strange light The dizziness will spread, and the culprit is a fist-sized pearl covered with lines.

Sand clam is a special kind of sea beast in the open sea. This kind of thing is divided into two extremes. Some lucky existences can awaken their intelligence and embark on the road of practice. Once promoted to the second level, they can transform into beautiful clam girls. It is the first choice for the maidservant of the powerful Neptune in many sea areas.

According to the legend, even if it is the Dragon Lord who guards the world instead of the Jade Emperor, the palace is filled with a large number of clam girls as maids.

Of course, some mussels that have never started their spiritual wisdom and embarked on the road of cultivation will become what they are now. They will follow the instinct of the mussels, search for some natural treasures with spiritual power from the vast sea, and swallow them In the process, little by little, it is transformed into pearls of different qualities.

Because of the differences in spiritual materials and growth experience during the gestation process, their functions are also different. Some are good at healing injuries, and some have extraordinary detoxification effects.

These pearls are not uncommon in Fangshi, but their quality is completely different from the pearls that appeared tonight, and cannot be compared.

The grade and quality of pearls are mainly confirmed through three aspects. First, through the size of the pearl, which is also the most obvious feature. Second, through the halo on the surface of the pearl and the light emitted. The specific use cannot be determined.

"Tsk tsk tsk, at least it is a second-tier high-grade pearl. If it continues to be bred, it has the potential to grow and be promoted to a third-rank low-grade pearl."

"Such treasures can be encountered but not sought after, but it is indeed a spiritual island that can become the core of the sea beast tide, and there are rare treasures everywhere."

"How can such a precious treasure be handed over? For this treasure, it is worthwhile to use some means of suppressing the bottom of the box."

The monks present murmured in groups of three or four, obviously determined to obtain this treasure. Even the monks who were a little weaker were full of fighting spirit and were unwilling to retreat easily.

In addition to the pearls bred by the clam in front of me, the white flesh in its body is also valuable. It is not only delicious, but also has a lot of effect under the long-term moisture of the pearls.

As for the back shell, whether it is used to refine defensive spiritual weapons or to purify some pearl essence after refining, it is a good choice. It can be said that this sand clam, which is still in the chaotic period and does not know its own safety, is a treasure all over its body. sweet pastry.

As time passed, both the monks and the sea beasts gradually calmed down, but the relationship between the two sides became more and more tense, and a big war was imminent. It was said that when the pearls were robbed in the middle of the night, the monks and sea beasts were bloody.

Chapter 466 The Bloody Treasure

In addition to participating in the battle for pearls during this trip, Zhao Shoushou spent more energy on the confronting sea beasts not far away.

More than [-] monks and more than [-] second-rank high-grade sea beasts. Compared with the difficulty of fighting for pearls, hunting some sea beasts is much easier, and it seems that the harvest is not small.

His most important task at present is instead to distinguish the most valuable one from the large number of sea beasts. Once a war starts, he must hunt and kill it quickly and stably.

Among the second-tier high-grade sea beasts that came to participate in the battle, although there are not many types, they are quite complete. Some common walruses, fur seals, and sea fish, and uncommon heymans and jellyfish, among them, there are also some that have never been seen before. The sea beasts with strange and unknown shapes are quite strange.

"The pearl is right in front of you, everyone, follow me to kill these sea beasts as soon as possible, and this pearl must be guaranteed to fall into the hands of the monk." A nine-story foundation-building monk in the center of the front could no longer hold back, shouted loudly and waved his hands An oval taupe stone in the middle was thrown out with both hands.

This seemingly ordinary stone had already locked on a second-rank high-grade sea beast as the target at the beginning of the departure, and it instantly opened the prelude to the war.

Most of the monks waved and manipulated the spiritual weapons in their hands at the same time, tearing the void and flying towards their respective targets. However, among the huge crowd, there are always some monks who want to pursue their interests wholeheartedly He likes to fish in troubled waters and take advantage of the chaos to snatch some treasures.

I saw that all the monks had already shot at the sea beast. A short monk with a black linen covering his face was hiding in the darkness, walking silently towards the opposite sand clam. In terms of means, it should be a veteran who is proficient in this way.

It's a pity that no matter how superb his stealing skills are, under the watchful eyes of everyone, this method is doomed to fail to achieve his goal and is very sad.

It was like stabbing a hornet's nest in an instant. At the moment its figure was exposed, no matter whether it was a sea beast or a monk, they all switched targets at the same time, and all the attacks fell on its body freely and drippingly.

This self-proclaimed thief with a fluke mentality obviously never expected that the retribution would appear so fast, and the originally prepared method did not even have any chance to be used. Disappeared between heaven and earth as a blood-red mist.

So far, no matter whether it is a monk or a sea beast, they have already understood the mind of taking the opportunity to steal, and they will fight with their opponents wholeheartedly.

In the situation where the number and strength of the two sides are almost the same, all fights are basically looking for opponents with almost the same strength. As the saying goes, fish look for fish and shrimp, and turtles look for bastards.

Perhaps the only difference among the crowd was Zhao Shoushou, who was obviously different from the other monks who were dedicated to fighting for pearls. From the beginning, his spiritual consciousness had firmly locked on a black-backed sea snake at the peak level of the second-order top grade.

The black-backed sea snake is huge in size, and is mainly good at attacking in terms of strength. It has a trace of blood in its body, and its combat power cannot be underestimated. However, it is lackluster in terms of spiritual skills. Only a few of them have the opportunity to comprehend some special dragon language Spiritual skills, of course, this mainly depends on the mellowness of the blood in the body.

In any case, the blood in the body of each black-backed sea snake is quite precious. As long as it is hunted down and refined with blood essence as raw material, a vivid blood essence can be obtained.

As one of the Nine Dragons, Bixi possesses effects that cannot be underestimated. The devouring of spirit beasts can help him improve his rank and strength. After the monks are refined, one will have a stronger body, and the other will have the opportunity to comprehend some special powerful growth Spirituality.

The growth-type spiritual technique is a relatively special method that can be improved with the improvement of the monk's cultivation level, but any comprehension after refining is at least the potential of a precious technique.

Precious arts specifically refer to the spells sacrificed by Jindan monks in battle. Each type can cause small-scale changes in the celestial phenomena, and they cannot be underestimated.

Compared with spiritual arts, precious arts are not only very difficult to comprehend, but also have very few inheritances in the cultivation world. Some Golden Core monks who come from casual cultivators may never have the opportunity to learn them in their entire lives.

The spiritual art comprehended by refining Bixi's bloodline is equivalent to a kind of innate spiritual art. Once comprehended, with the improvement of cultivation base, it will naturally become a precious art. It does not require monks to bother to study and comprehend.

This point is obviously very important for the newly promoted monks of the golden core stage, at least they can have the combat power to fight against monks of the same level before they have magic weapons to protect them.

But all of this is just a long-term plan, and it is of no benefit to the immediate battle. Since the black-backed sea snake has such an important and precious bloodline, its combat effectiveness cannot be underestimated. The difficulty of hunting is almost among the many sea beasts Top ranked.

If it was an ordinary day, the monks present might compete for one or two. At this time, the pearl is close at hand, and some people are willing to fight thousands of strong ones among the sea beasts. The monks are naturally happy to see the result.

Even knowing that the black-backed sea snake is of great value, it is willing to give it up. This is beyond doubt. After all, anyone with a discerning eye knows that it is not on the same level as this precious pearl.

"Hissing" the black-backed sea snake is not afraid of the monks rushing forward. The slender and inverted triangle snake letter is constantly swallowing, and even drops of stinky saliva are flowing down the flow. This huge sea snake It seems that the taste of delicious monks is constantly reminiscing.

Judging from its performance, in the past hundreds of years of practice, it has obviously hunted and killed a lot of monks, so it is quite enthusiastic.

When the distance between the two was still ten feet away, a thick and strong snake tail had already slashed across the air, and the power contained in it seemed to split the air alive.

On the tail of the black-backed sea snake, the bulging muscle lines are very obvious and regular. This is also the source of its strength. From the point of view of strength alone, it is definitely the only thing I have seen in my life.

"The black-backed sea snake is indeed a powerful monster. If it confronts it head-on, Zhao will at least have to pay some price." Seeing that he couldn't resist it head-on, Zhao Shoushou decisively chose to retreat immediately.

Of course, this kind of retreat is not fear, but to avoid its edge, but it is not a simple retreat, and a due counterattack is also essential.

The second-tier high-grade flying sword used its own sensitivity to dodge left and right, constantly harassing from the left and right sides, trying to interrupt the attack of the black-backed sea snake. In addition, the heavy-duty mace as the main force was responsible for frontal resistance. Next, layers of cold light shone on each steel thorn, entangled with sea beasts.

When Zhao Shoushou fought with the black-backed sea snake, the entire coast was engulfed in a melee. As time passed, battles began and ended continuously, and the originally clear sea surface was covered with a layer of blood red.

Chapter 467

The most conspicuous thing in this fierce battle should be the sand clam that was originally the prey, but according to instinct, it was filtering and sucking the blood with a slight stench from the sand and sea water.

Whenever a trace of blood is successfully filtered, there will be a slight jump on the originally stable carapace of the sand clam, which seems to be an expression of excitement after tasting the delicious food.

Gradually, with the passing of time, the surface of the clam has been dyed a strange blood red, and the pearls growing in the body have also turned blood red little by little, and even the light emitted has begun to change.

Originally, this change did not attract the attention of the monks and sea beasts present. After the quantitative transformation became a qualitative change, both the monks and the sea beasts began to subconsciously observe the changes of the sand clams, lest there be some unexpected situations that were not under control.

Even in the originally fierce battle, both sides were consciously weakening to a certain extent, and perhaps the only ones that were not affected by this were Zhao Shoushou and the black-backed sea snake.

On the one hand, Zhao Shoushou has never had the belief that the pearl Zhao Shoushou is determined to win. On the other hand, the black-backed sea snake and the future treasures of the growth-type spiritual art that he may comprehend are more attractive to him.

As for the black-backed sea snake, it doesn't have much interest in pearls. It seems to be more important for it to enjoy a delicious monk meal.

But one thing is indisputable, with the sufficient supply of blood, the sand clam is undergoing an unknown change, and the final result, whether good or bad, is beyond their control.

The rhythm of the battle, which was originally tending to ease, entered a new climax after a monk was attacked by a sea beast and fell, and realized that no matter how the sand clam changes, the relationship between the monk and the sea beast is still undying. subject to any changes.

"It turned out that it was just a fierce three-axe at the beginning. How could it be Zhao's opponent relying solely on physical brute force?" At this time, Zhao Shoushou yelled. The method of backing the sea snake has already been understood to a certain extent, and it is ready to launch a long-planned counterattack.

The battle between Zhao Shoushou and the black-backed sea snake has gone through three stages from the beginning to the present. [-]. The sea beast relies on its ferocious force to gain the upper hand. [-]. The stalemate stage between the monk and the sea beast.

Of course, it is not an easy task to fully control the initiative of the battle. After all, the ferocity of the black-backed sea snake is not for nothing. It needs enough time, energy, and patience to reverse it little by little.
