Because of the social nature and the unpicky living environment, even if they can't find a palatable low-level spirit beast for the time being, just hunting ordinary herbivores can allow the agate beasts to support for a short time, which is enough for them to find suitable prey again.

Therefore, where there are often lions active, there will be a group of agate beasts, coupled with their excellent reproductive ability, so that even if the aura is thin now, this group has become the most common existence among the spirit beasts of the same level.

But common doesn't mean that agate horns are easy to find.

Unlike unicorns, which are both male and female, the female agate beast has two horns on the top of its head, but their horns have no medicinal value, and most of them are only used as materials for the production of some common weapons.

In the same way, the horns of male cubs cannot be used as materials because they have not yet fully grown, and only the single horns of adult male agate beasts have medicinal value.

However, as I said earlier, although the agate beast is a social animal, it often can only accommodate one adult male agate beast in an agate group, and because of the fierce competition, the two agate beast groups are often separated by a long distance, which makes the agate horn rare.

However, of course, the rarity in this different space cannot be counted, Nie Tian thought back to the appearance of the agate beast, and then according to the map, the appearance of an adult male agate beast appeared in his mind, and then closed his eyes and prepared to teleport.

After opening his eyes this time, Nie Tian found himself teleported to a boulder in the middle of a grassland, and before he could stand firmly, a fierce roar came from not far away, and when he looked closely, a sturdy male agate beast was facing him with its single horn, and its front paws were viciously digging the ground, trying to drive itself away.

Behind it, more than a dozen agate females and cubs are running backwards, obviously sensing the threat of the coming, and it is the responsibility of the male leader to protect the group, so when they realize that they may encounter enemies, the other females will be responsible for leading the cubs to evacuate to a relatively safe area, and protect them every step of the way until the crisis is resolved.

Unfortunately, this time their crisis may never be resolved, until another wandering male agate discovers this group of leaderless females.

"Humans, get out of this grassland. A strong and heavy voice sounded in Nie Tian's mind, with a thick warning.

Nie Tian's eyes froze, and he almost forgot that the agate beast was a spirit beast that had already opened its spiritual intelligence, and it could directly use its spiritual power to communicate with humans.

"Get out of here, it's our territory!" the Onyx growled again.

Nie Tian pondered the sound he heard, and was sure that the agate beast in front of him should have passed fifty years old, which was the age when it could be used for medicine.

In Nie Tian's eyes, there was no difference between spirit beasts and humans, but they were just creatures that had opened their spiritual intelligence. When needed, it can be used as a material.

Nie Tian hooked the corners of his mouth without emotion: "Don't worry, I'm not interested in your territory and clansmen." ”

"I want your horns. ”

"Roar!! The Onyx Beast felt that its authority had been challenged, and roared angrily at the sky, then kicked its feet and rushed straight towards Nie Tian.

The horns of the agate beast are both their symbol and their weapon, especially the horns of the male agate beast born for battle, which are even harder than the thousand-year-old cold iron, and can easily break through the defensive shield of low-level monks and deal a fatal blow to the invading enemy.

Coupled with the fact that their attack speed is comparable to that of the inner gate martial artists, these spirit beasts that do not have other attack methods other than using horns have a five-level evaluation, even if they have just broken through to enter the inner gate, they are caught off guard in the wild and encounter a healthy male agate beast, and they often have to flee for their lives.

But unfortunately, it was not an inexperienced low-level martial artist that it encountered, but Nie Tian.

Moreover, I don't know if there was something wrong with this agate beast itself, or if it was the fact that they had lived on the top of the uninhabited Tianshan Mountain all year round, so that they had long forgotten what it was like to be hunted by humans, and the movements of this adult male were actually much slower than Nie Tian imagined.

Nie Tian dodged the impact of the agate beast neatly, and a wisp of sword qi instantly condensed from his right hand, aiming at the top of the agate beast's head and slashing it fiercely, actually directly cutting off the agate horn.

The battle ended in an instant.

"Roar!!" The top of the agate beast's head suddenly flowed blood, and in the midst of great pain, the male agate beast let out a desperate roar from its mouth, and its huge body fell to the ground, it glanced at the direction of the group's departure, and slowly closed its eyes unwillingly.

It is impossible for the agate beast to survive without its horns, even if Hua Tuo is alive, it is powerless to return to the sky, and in addition to the horns that can be used medicinally, the agate beast has its own uses, whether it is skin, tendons or even the flesh of the whole body, it is a pity to waste it in vain.

But recalling the nostalgic look of the agate beast before it fell, Nie Tian had a rare trace of kindness, flipped the horns in his hand, walked to the side of the agate beast that had not completely swallowed his breath, and said lightly: "Don't worry, I won't do anything with your clan, they are safe." ”

As soon as the words fell, this adult male who cared about the race seemed to have fulfilled his last wish, and under Nie Tian's gaze, he completely swallowed his last breath.

"It's a man. Nie Tian pulled out a knife and prepared to cramp and pull out the bones, the whole body of the agate beast is a treasure, and as long as it is properly preserved, it can be stored for thousands of years, although it is not needed for the time being, but if there is a place to use it, there is no need to run here to hunt another one.

Fortunately, the strength of this agate beast seems to have degraded, but the quality of the agate horn has not been affected, and it is still the best of the best.

The agate corner was successful, and all the materials for refining the Jiuqu Yang Ginseng Pill were all collected, and Nie Tian didn't bother to find another place, so he stretched out his hand and took it out in the void, and a thousand catties of medicine fell in response, smashing the grass into a deep pit.

Nie Tian took out the agate horn, the thousand leaf grass and the Jiuqu Yang ginseng from his pocket, and he didn't bother to deal with it, so he threw it in, and a wisp of green smoke rose from the medicine ding, and there was a nine-flavor true fire at the bottom, so there was no need for Nie Tian to make a fire again.

"What a baby. Nie Tian sighed with satisfaction.

This thing was discovered a few days ago when Zhao Song was inspecting the things obtained from the Tianshan Mountains, and it was so stunned that it poked on the ground, and the surface was even covered with moss, and it looked tattered, if it weren't for the aura on it that attracted Nie Tian's attention, Zhao Song almost threw it away as garbage.

Although Nie Tian can become a pill empty-handed, the medicine tripod does not need aura, which is always much more convenient.

Looking at the time, more than four minutes had passed, and the refining of the Jiuqu Yang Ginseng Pill was completed in a blink of an eye, and when Nie Tian opened his eyes and stuffed the successfully refined Jiuqu Yang Ginseng Pill into Sun Qian's mouth, it was only ten seconds away from five minutes.
