Chapter 28: Demon Mountain
"Why are there so many people, this Demon Valley is worthy of being a place where demon beasts gather. Lin Chen was at the fork of the road, which was still two hundred miles away from the Gathering Demon Valley, and saw a group of cultivators walking in the direction of the Gathering Demon Valley, just like himself.
"Obediently, there are so many cultivators, you can fish in troubled waters when the time comes, but if one of them is not good, my life will not be guaranteed. Lin Chen's heart was both happy and worried, he had never seen such a big scene.
"Ah, look, that's the master of the five grades, it's really chic to walk in the sky!" Suddenly, there was a sound of breaking the sky from high in the sky, attracting everyone's attention.
"Even the masters of the five grades are here, and I am afraid that there are treasures to be born in the Demon Valley this time. "A cultivator is mysterious.
"I also heard such rumors, so I thought of trying my luck in the Demon Gathering Valley. The other cultivator grinned.
"Forget it! With our kind of cultivation, it's already very good to be able to watch from outside, and the treasure has nothing to do with us. Some cultivators sighed.
"That's not necessarily, some treasures will fly away, maybe we will run into them. Besides, even if you can't get the treasures, you can still collect a lot of cultivation resources on the periphery, which is regarded as training. ”
Lin Chen listened on the side, his face showed excitement, his fantasy problem was committed again at this moment, imagining what kind of elixir he had obtained in the Demon Gathering Valley, and suddenly his strength had soared, and he could also fly away.
When the time comes, take Li Yuting to fly in the sky, feel the wind blowing, and look down on the vast earth, how romantic it is!
While fantasizing and moving forward, Lin Chen unconsciously entered an endless mountain range, where there are thousands of mountains, to say the least, dense and endless.
The cultivators he met began to disperse in all directions, entering the Demon Gathering Valley from different directions, some performing tasks, and some looking for cultivation resources.
Along the way, Lin Chen saw a lot of cultivators flying in the sky swishing overhead, flying towards the depths of the Demon Gathering Valley, and there seemed to be elders of the Shanshui Sect inside, and they didn't know what kind of treasure it would attract so many masters.
Fantasy is fantasy, but Lin Chen is also self-aware, knowing that his current strength is insufficient, it is very impractical to obtain treasures, and completing the task as soon as possible is the king.
Placing the black spirit horse at the foot of a small hill, Lin Chen burrowed into a dense jungle, which already belonged to the scope of the Gathering Demon Valley. The Demon Valley is very vast, stretching for four or five hundred miles.
There are many first-order demon beasts on the periphery of the Demon Gathering Valley, and almost every mountain range, every forest, will have one or two heads.
And the deeper they got, the more terrifying the demon beasts became, and in the deepest part of the Demon Gathering Valley, there were even third-order demon beasts.
Lin Chen stalked cautiously in the jungle, looking for their traces according to the characteristics of the first-order demon beasts he was going to hunt.
When he climbed over a mountain range, Lin Chen found a fifth-order demon beast, but it was not his prey, so he carefully bypassed it.
The mountains and forests were silent, and from time to time there were beast roars, which were particularly terrifying, and the cultivators who could still be seen on the road were scattered as soon as they entered the mountains and forests, and they couldn't even see a single one.
Half an hour later, Lin Chen finally found his first prey in a fiery red stone forest.
Fire attribute first-order demon beast, fire lizard.
This stone forest is very hot, and there is fire underground, so fire-attribute monsters like to inhabit here.
The fire lizard is three meters long and muscular, covered with fiery red scale armor, with a long, thick tail and tusks in its mouth, which looks like a crocodile.
Lin Chen was also particular about choosing this prey, the fire lizard had a lot of materials for refining the fire talisman, such as his blood could be used as ink, and if he soaked the paper with its bile, the fire talisman drawn would be more powerful.
Lin Chen's figure, as light as a swallow, quickly dived behind a boulder behind the fire lizard. After stepping into the fourth rank, his strength and physical strength increased again, and even a fifth-rank cultivator could not compare with him.
The fire lizard was eating at this time, and the blood basin bit down, and the body of a leopard was torn in half, and the scene was very bloody.
Lin Chen held his breath and waited for half an hour before the fire lizard had eaten and drunk enough and curled up on a stone to sleep.
"Good opportunity!" Lin Chen seized the opportunity, the sword on his waist was pulled out at once, and a thousand catties of strength were blessed on it, and he slashed at the head of the fire lizard.
"Hmph!" The vigilance of the fire lizard was very strong, and it was suddenly awakened, and a cloud of white gas erupted from its nose, and a flame spit out from its mouth and burned towards Lin Chen.
As soon as the sword light fell, Lin Chen actually split the flame in half, and the sharp sword slashed at the neck of the fire lizard, splitting it at once, hot blood gushed out from the neck, and a nearby big tree was contaminated with some, and it actually began to burn.
Killing a fire lizard with one sword, this level is no longer something that ordinary four-rank cultivators can do.
Fourth-rank cultivators generally use the power of talismans to assist themselves against fifth-order demon beasts, and rarely use the power of their physical bodies to kill demon beasts like Lin Chen.
Lin Chen took out a jade bottle, filled it with hot blood, and began to dig up the demon beads of the fire lizard, as well as collect useful materials on its body.
The fiery red demon bead, the blood on it was washed away by Lin Chen with water, revealing a ruby-like luster. Holding this demon bead in the palm of his hand, there was a faint heat coming out.
"I don't know if after refining this demon bead, that blood-red divine light will have a fire attribute, in this case, it will have too much effect on my future refining talismans. Lin Chen's heart was excited.
Lin Chen had seen from that book of cultivation that there were some cultivators who were born with special attributes, such as the body of fire and the body of earth...... , Cultivators with physical bodies with these special attributes, refining talismans with the same attributes as theirs will have the effect of getting twice the result with half the effort.
Similarly, if a cultivator's talisman derives a certain attribute, it can also help him refine the talisman of that attribute faster and better.
Lin Chen's physical attributes were very ordinary, and he had not derived Dao Lotus, but if he used the power of the blood-red divine light to store the power of various attributes in his strength, he would have such an ability.
As soon as he thought of this, Lin Chen couldn't wait to collect the demon beads of other attributes.
Since there was no treasure to store items, Lin Chen had no choice but to give up the body of the fire lizard. After taking three pills, he replenished his energy and continued on the road.
The second demon beast he encountered was in the valley seven or eight miles away, and this time, Lin Chen was still very smooth, and he didn't meet other cultivators. This is an earth-attribute first-order demon beast named Haotu Pig. It resembles a pig, but its body is covered with gray fur, and it is two meters tall and very strong.
A black bear was unfortunate enough to be targeted by this pig, and before he could escape, he was pierced by his sharp fangs, and then torn in half.
At this time, Lin Chen made a move, he didn't use the sword, the leather armor of the Haotu pig was too thick, not as fragile as the neck of the fire lizard, it was easier to kill him with his fists.
He jumped on the back of the pig at once, his fists rained down, and he kept slapping the pig's head.
A faint rustic aura rose from the body of the rich pig, wanting to block Lin Chen's fist. But Lin Chen at this time is no longer comparable to a month ago.
The power on the fist exceeded a thousand catties with each blow, and the rustic qi released by the Haotu pig suddenly shattered. With a crisp crack, its skull was shattered by fists, and streams of blood spurted out of its seven orifices.
"Woo!" the pig screamed twice, and his whole body fell to the ground, dying directly. Lin Chen quickly dug out his demon bead, collected the useful materials on its body, and left here.
"Fire lizard, hogan pig...... , who killed them, hmph, dare to rob the prey with the people of our Starry Sky Gate, I don't know whether they are dead or alive. ”
Shortly after Lin Chen killed the Haotu Pig, a group of cultivators entered the valley.
There are five of them, and all of them are above the fourth grade, and even one of them has unfathomable strength, and it seems that Long Yun and the others are not much worse.
"Don't pay attention to so much, let's hurry up and complete the task, and then join up with the senior brother and them, this time there is a high probability that there will be strange treasures in the Demon Gathering Valley, which is a rare opportunity." ”
The cultivator with unfathomable strength said.
Two days had passed, and Lin Chen had already killed the four first-order demon beasts in the mission, the fire lizard, the Mighty Pig, the Water Leopard, and the Wind Wolf, leaving only a metallic gibbon.
He hunted the four-headed demon beast without using any talismans, and it was all done by relying on the strength of his own body.
If the disciples of the Shanshui Sect knew about this, I don't know what they would think.
You must know that last time, Long Hai hunted three fifth-order demon beasts, but he used up four talismans.
There are not many golden gibbons in the Demon Gathering Valley, and they also live in the inner area, where there are already sixth-order demon beasts, if they accidentally encounter one, with Lin Chen's current strength, it will be a little difficult to clean it up.
A sixth-order demon beast, whose strength is comparable to that of a fifth- or sixth-grade cultivator.
"Rustle!" The trees around Lin Chen made a loud noise, which immediately alerted him.
He soon discovered that there were quite a few cultivators haunting the area. Unlike the periphery of the Gathering Demon Valley, the cultivation resources here began to increase, not only with a large number of demon beasts, but also with various spirit grasses.
As soon as there are many cultivation resources, there are of course more cultivators who have gathered.
Lin Chen was definitely in a weak position at this time, many cultivators entered here in groups, but he was only one person.
In fact, with his strength, it is not difficult to join some casual cultivation teams, but it is difficult to allocate the cultivation resources obtained, and if one is not careful, it will cause death.
Another point is that the forces that have entered this Demon Gathering Valley are mixed, and it is common for cultivators to kill people and sell goods here, and they especially like to attack single cultivators. This made Lin Chen have to be more cautious.
Sure enough, on the third day, what Lin Chen was worried about still happened, and he was targeted by a group of loose cultivators.
This group of scattered cultivators saw that he had collected a second-grade spirit grass, and he was alone, so they all had a cruel sneer on their faces.
There are six of them in this group of loose cultivators, and their strength is at least in the fourth-grade realm, and they must all carry talismans on their bodies.
Without waiting for them to get close to him, Lin Chen took out the Wind Riding Talisman and urged it with his aura.
All of a sudden, his speed more than doubled, and like a gust of wind, he burrowed into the woods, until he reached a valley with treacherous terrain, and then stopped and hid in a stone forest.
"Boy, if you are smarter, come out yourself, hand over your belongings, and we can spare your life, otherwise today will be your death. A rough voice echoed through the valley.
"Hmph! With this bit of intelligence, you also want to beat me Lin Chen's idea. Lin Chen sneered, hiding in the dark and rubbing his palms.
If you rely on hunting monsters and performing tasks, it is too slow to obtain wealth. That's why some cultivators choose to kill people and sell more goods, of course, people with backgrounds, they don't dare to kill indiscriminately.
Since Lin Chen killed a few cultivators last time and got some sweetness, he was also thinking about how to kill people and sell more goods.
But he won't take the initiative, people don't offend me, I don't offend people, if others want to give treasures to him, he doesn't mind taking them all.
"Boy, you are going to die this time, even if you come out and kneel and beg for mercy now, it is only a dead end. Search for me. Seeing that Lin Chen didn't have the idea of coming out, some cultivators laughed fiercely and began to search the entire valley separately.
There were six of them in total, and even if they were fifth-grade cultivators, they were sure to kill, so they weren't worried about what Lin Chen would be able to make any waves.
The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and in the stone forest where Lin Chen was hiding, a cultivator finally came over, holding a talisman in his hand, as long as he saw Lin Chen, he would launch it at any time, even if he couldn't kill Lin Chen, he could expose his whereabouts, and the others would rush in, and Lin Chen would definitely die.
"Are you looking for me?" Suddenly, Lin Chen's figure turned out from behind a boulder, with a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth.
"You ......" The four-rank scattered cultivator had just reacted, and Lin Chen's fist had already smashed towards him.
"Look for death!" The scattered cultivator sneered, and an earthy yellow talisman in his hand bloomed with brilliance, this is a strong talisman, blessing the cultivator's body, which can increase the strength by hundreds of catties. With this strong talisman, that Sanxiu was full of confidence in his own strength, and waved his fist towards Lin Chen.
