Longevity: Starting from the Talent of Infant Growth

Unconsciously, the sun was already high in the sky.

The sun shone through the jungle, casting erratic, flickering light and shadows in the grass.

[There are demon wolves fighting ahead, crisis response +1]

Zhou Ling, who was walking in the jungle, suddenly stopped and felt a tremor of fear.

He immediately turned around and bypassed the jungle in front of him.

Now that he had gradually entered the inner mountain area, he did not dare to be careless at all, whether it was where the demon beasts appeared, or where there were traces of other pharmacists and demon hunters.

He tried his best to avoid them.

Within the range of thirty or forty miles of the camp, he could occasionally meet other pharmacists.

But as he went deeper, he encountered fewer and fewer casual cultivators.

[Crisis response] appeared from time to time.

Although his spiritual consciousness was constantly consumed, it was worth it to avoid risks.

Ao! Ao!

Not long after Zhou Ling left, two blood wolves as big as tigers and leopards ran past in the jungle and were fighting each other.

The blood wolves were sturdy, with surging blood and amazing power.

[Growth talent, demon beast pressure: can condense a shocking spiritual imprint in the demon beast's soul, so that the demon beast will willingly submit. Achievement requirements: kill ten demon beasts. ]

Hearing the terrifying wolf howl, Zhou Ling was speeding up and leaving this dangerous area.

During the process, he faintly heard the sound of the system prompt, but he didn't have time to check.

Until the [Crisis Response] dissipated, he stopped, panting slightly, and looked at the panel.

"New talent [Demon Beast Pressure]!"

Zhou Ling was delighted.

No matter what profession a cultivator is engaged in, from a pharmacist to a demon hunter to an alchemist to a rune master, he has to deal with demon beasts.

Alchemists need demon beast cores to refine pills.

Rune masters need demon beast skins to refine runes.

So this [Demon Beast Pressure] will undoubtedly have a huge effect on Zhou Ling in the future.

"However, it can only be achieved by killing ten demon beasts!"

Zhou Ling frowned slightly.

With [Crisis Response], he has been trying his best to avoid monsters along the way.

"Does it mean that I have to achieve the effect of [Monster Pressure] and take the initiative to kill monsters?"

Zhou Ling's heart was a little nervous.

But think about it, he is now at least the fourth level of Qi training, and the Dayang Fist has reached the first level of great perfection.

There is also the Qinggang Sword Art.

The overall strength is not low, but it seems that he has no practical experience so far.

He has been at home, in the Taoist temple and in the workshop since he grew up.

He has not encountered any danger.

But now he is alone in the wilderness, although he can avoid danger with [Crisis Response].

But it is impossible to avoid it every time.

When you really encounter a monster, you must show your fighting power and fight it!

You can't rely on [Crisis Response] to avoid danger all your life.

Now that this [Monster Pressure] is activated, even if you face monsters head-on in the future, the threat will be greatly reduced.

And you only need to choose those ordinary or first-level initial monsters, which are far less powerful than yours.

After thinking about it, Zhou Ling mustered up his courage and continued to walk forward.

······.

In the air, an unknown bird with black feathers seemed to have spotted its prey in the bushes and was swooping down.

However, it had not yet landed in the bushes.

The next moment.

A faint red stream of light flashed through its body as fast as lightning.

Then the red light circled and returned to Zhou Ling's hand, who was lurking in the bushes.

[You are using the Qinggang Sword, sword control +1, Qinggang Sword Skill proficiency +1]

[You are using the Qinggang Sword, precise control +1, Qinggang Sword Skill proficiency +1]

[You killed a black-feathered eagle, monster pressure +1]

"Huh!"

Zhou Ling crouched carefully and walked along the bushes to the place where the black-feathered eagle's body fell. He was relieved when he confirmed that the black-feathered eagle was dead.

"I'm still too nervous."

Zhou Ling felt that his palms were already full of sweat. He inserted the Fire Pattern Sword into the grass and wiped his palms on his sleeves.

Then he put the body of the black-feathered eagle into the storage bag. Although it was an ordinary monster, its flesh and blood also contained a lot of blood essence.

Take it back to replenish his father's blood.

Feeling that the spiritual energy in his body was only less than 10% consumed, Zhou Ling picked up the Fire Pattern Sword and continued to move forward cautiously.

"Puff!"

A monster that looked like a leopard or a cat was lurking on the giant tree, and its head suddenly exploded.

Falling from the tree!

[You are performing the Qinggang Sword, sword control +1, Qinggang Sword Skill proficiency +1]

[You are performing the Qinggang Sword, precise control +1, Qinggang Sword Skill proficiency +1]

[You killed a fire pattern leopard, monster pressure +1]

"Puff!"

A black-scaled snake that was spitting out snake tongue in the grass was cut into two pieces.

[You killed a black-scaled snake, Monster Pressure +1]

"Puff!"

A tusked rat that smelled blood and quickly came to eat the snake meat was directly pierced by the Fire Pattern Sword.

[You killed a tusked rat, Monster Pressure +1]

······.

The Qinggang sword technique that combined the [Sword Control] talent now has a lethality of about five meters.

The speed is so fast that ordinary monsters can't avoid it at all.

With the help of [Precise Control], Zhou Ling's control of spiritual power is extremely precise and subtle, not only fast, accurate, and ruthless, but also without any waste.

Within the range of five meters, he was able to move his sword at will, hitting wherever he wanted, and his sword never missed.

With the strength of [Crisis Response], Zhou Ling now has experience and can judge the approximate strength of the monsters he encounters.

Even if it is a first-stage monster, he chooses to avoid it.

For the middle stage of the first stage, he directly takes a detour.

Along the way, many monsters have been quietly killed by him one after another.

Until he felt that half of his spiritual power was consumed, he carefully found a hidden place, took out the Fire Mist Grass, and operated the Spirit Flame Technique to absorb and refine the medicinal power.

[Your Spirit Flame absorbs the spirit of the spirit medicine, spiritual fire +1, spiritual flame grade +1]

[You are absorbing the Fire Mist Grass, more courage +1, spiritual energy +3]

[You are absorbing the Fire Mist Grass, spirit medicine stress +1, fire mist grass power +1]

·······.

When the spiritual power in the body is almost restored.

He held the Fire Pattern Sword in one hand and the Thunder Fire Pearl in the other hand and continued to move forward.

They continued to move forward for more than half an hour.

With the help of [Crisis Response], Zhou Ling did not encounter a first-level mid-stage monster even though he had entered the inner mountain area.

He only killed a few ordinary monsters.

[You kill a black-clawed mole, monster pressure +1]

[Effect: Kill 10 monsters]

[Cumulative monsters killed: 10/100]

"It's less than ten miles away from Jiuye Valley now, but it's already noon. Even if we enter the valley, there is no time to find spiritual medicine!"

"And staying in the barren mountains at night will greatly increase the danger!"

Zhou Ling looked at the jungle in front of him, and then he would reach the inner mountain area.

Today's time is not enough. Thinking of Chu Xing's instructions, he must return to the camp at night no matter what the situation is.

He didn't think about it anymore and decided to return the same way.

Today is the second time to find the way.

He has been able to determine the basic route to Jiuye Valley.

He has also stimulated the [Monster Pressure] talent and gained a lot of practical experience.

There are also some spiritual medicines, which is a full harvest.
