Chapter 9: The First Hunt

Gu Chen and his party are almost all together now, and it is time to find a place to live, but this area guarded by the formation is very flat, there are no stone caves or anything like that, only trees. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

"Now, we need to stay here for two years, and we don't have a place to live, so are we just sleeping on the ground?" An Yi said with a sad face.

"If not, let's take it ourselves", Ren Xiangtong answered, "Alas, where are the horns on your head?" Ren Xiangtong asked strangely, "Why is it still there yesterday?"

An Yi glanced at her and walked away alone, scolding as she walked, "Gu Chen, you bastard, one day I want you to look good."

Ren Xiangtong saw that An Yi ignored him, and asked reluctantly, "What about asking you, why don't you ignore people", An Yi was about to be angry, and accelerated his speed and ran towards a crowded place.

Ren Xiangtong searched for a long time and didn't find An Yi and left, and then told everyone his thoughts, everyone thought it was a good idea, so they all started to cut down wood and build simple houses.

"Let's do this today, let's take it slowly, let's all live here tonight, and it's good to build a little bit every day in the future."

Everyone agreed with Su Lingyun's statement, and they all walked to the house and began to eat the dry food they brought, and at this time An Yi came back, and when he saw Gu Chen and the others in the house, he said in surprise, "How did you cut the wood?"

"Cut it with it", Ziling said, holding her dagger, "and this dagger, otherwise it will be miserable."

"Why don't you ask me for it, I have a knife", An Yi replied casually.

"The knife you came from?" Gu Chen asked in surprise, "Dad brought it when he came", after finishing speaking, An Yi took out a small bag and took out a bunch of weapons from it, including knives, swords, clubs, whips, everything.

Gu Chen looked at this An Yi blankly, swallowed his saliva and said, "What is this? It can hold so many things in such a small size."

An Yi said proudly, "This is called the Qiankun bag, which my father bought at a great price, and there are a lot of things in it, including food, clothes, oops! Anyway, my father packed a lot of things for me in it."

At this time, everyone except An Yi couldn't close their mouths happily, Gu Chen took the Qiankun bag and looked it up and down and said, "Can An Yi give me this?"

An Yi hurriedly grabbed it and said, "I only have one that my father bought at a great price, how can I give it to you, if my father knows that I gave it away, I have to kill me."

"Okay, don't eat dry food, I have something to eat here", after speaking, he took out a lot of food from the Qiankun bag, and Gu Chen and his party ate happily, discussing how many houses they would build tomorrow while eating.

In the early morning of the next day, everyone was building their own houses, Gu Chen saw that some people came back from outside the formation, and they were still injured, so he went over and asked, "What's wrong with you", the person who was questioned said, "We went out to hunt and kill the demonic beasts, but the demonic beasts here are much stronger than those in the outside world, and it is difficult to hunt them", and after speaking, he walked aside to cultivate.

Gu Chen went back to where he lived, everyone gathered over and said, "Shouldn't we also go and kill the demonic beasts, otherwise, when we return to the academy, we won't be able to exchange for cultivation exercises without grinding cores."

After discussion, everyone unanimously decided to hunt and kill the monster.

After Gu Chen and the others arrived outside the formation, they all walked cautiously to the depths of the forest, An Yi took out the weapon from the Qiankun bag, and everyone picked a weapon to take advantage of, at this time Gu Chen whispered, "I don't know what class of demonic beasts we will encounter."

"Shhh

"I don't know, I can sense the fluctuations of aura around me since I was a child, whether it is a human or a demonic beast, I can know."

"Then do you know how many demonic beasts there are?" Gu Chen asked eagerly, "There should only be a few, and the aura fluctuation is not very strong."

"Okay, then we will divide into two groups now, I will take the female group to attack from the front, Gu Chen, you take the male group to detour behind the demonic beast, and when the time comes, we will attack together, Yi will hunt and kill as fast as possible, and retreat quickly after taking the demon core, remember no"?

"Remember, Sister Su, how do we know when to start when the time comes"?

"You don't have to be careful about this, when we do it, there will be a lot of movement, and then you can rush out and hunt together."

Saying that, Gu Chen took the male group of team members to quietly go around from the other side, and Su Lingyun's group slowly walked towards the demonic beast from the direction just now.

It didn't take long for Gu Chen and the others to make a detour behind the demonic beasts, ready to attack at any time, through the grass Gu Chen saw that there were a total of five demonic beasts, each of which was very strong, the size of an adult bison, but they were not cattle, they were a species called the Armor Beast.

The skin of this kind of demonic beast is extremely strong, and ordinary swords can't pierce their skin at all, so the number of armor beasts is very large, and they are generally social species, I don't know why there are a few armor beasts left alone this time.

Just when Gu Chen was still thinking about it, the armored beast in front of him became agitated, it turned out that Su Lingyun led people to start besieging the armored beast, and at this time, Gu Chen didn't have time to rush out with the team to hunt and kill the demonic beast with everyone.

In the beginning, everyone only used their swords to attack the Armored Beast, and the sword slashed at the Armored Beast, making a clanging sound, leaving only light white marks on the Armored Beast's skin.

Although the armor beast is known for its defense, but because of its strong body, the strength of the armor beast is also very strong, the armor beast never takes the initiative to attack, only when its life is threatened, it will only fight back, relying on its huge body and amazing strength, the impact of the first-order armor beast can kill a monk of the ninth stage of the blood spirit realm at will, so although Gu Chen and the others have an absolute advantage in terms of numbers this time, they can't underestimate the armor beast, after all, most of the people who participated in the hunting and killing of the armor beast this time are early in the blood spirit realm stage.

The previous academy saw that the attack of the ordinary sword could not hurt the armor beast at all, so they poured spiritual power into the sword and slashed at the armor beast, and the sword after the blessing of spiritual power really cut the armor beast, although the scar did not achieve a fatal effect, but it was enough.

Ren Xiangtong shouted excitedly, "Everyone quickly instill spiritual power into the weapons, only in this way can we successfully hunt them."

After hearing Ren Xiangtong's reminder, everyone followed suit, and sure enough, the weapon attack after the infusion of spiritual power became a lot stronger.

Half an hour later, half of the armored beasts had been hunted by Gu Chen and his party, and at this time, the still alive armored beasts also had large and small scars on their bodies, although this scar would not make them die, but Gu Chen and the others were still attacking.

The scars on the body of the armored beast are constantly increasing, and the wounds are getting bigger and bigger, one of the armored beasts suddenly raised its head to the sky and roared, its voice was deafening, as if it was praying for something, at this time, the eyes of the other two armored beasts emitted a cold light, surrounding the roaring armored beast in the middle, and the spiritual power emitted was all condensed into the body of the other armored beast.

At this time, Gu Chen and the others stopped attacking and were watching this scene.

Slowly, the aura of the other two armored beasts was constantly weakening, while the wounds on the other armored beast were slowly healing.

Everyone suddenly felt that something was wrong, but it was almost late, after the two armored beasts that had been drained of their spiritual energy fell, the only surviving armored beast raised its head to the sky and roared again, and its size began to increase, doubling as much as the original, and the hardness of its body also increased, slowly transforming from gray skin to black, and scales also grew on its skin.

"It's not good, it's a death sacrifice", Ren Xiangtong shouted loudly, "Everyone work together to kill it, if it fully accepts the death sacrifice, we are not its opponents." After saying that, take the lead in attacking.

I saw Ren Xiangtong soaring into the air, his whole body's spiritual power leaked out, and hundreds of black dots appeared around his body, and the black dots were rapidly magnifying, and finally formed a round black point of light the size of a fist, Ren Xiangtong muttered in his mouth that he would try the power of the fall of the stars today, and his hands formed an unfamiliar seal and shot it towards the armored beast, only to see hundreds of black balls of light instantly attack the armored beast, and a huge explosion was issued at the moment when the ball of light touched the armored beast.

Gu Chen and the others also quickly retreated, so as not to be injured by mistake, after Ren Xiangtong released the fall of the stars, the aura was instantly drained and fell vertically from the air, at this time, An Yi, who was closest to Ren Xiangtong, reached out to catch her. Just when everyone thought the armored beast had died in the explosion. There was a roar of rage from the area where the armored beast was in front of him, and the bloody armored beast quickly rushed towards Ren Xiangtong.

At this time, Gu Chen shouted, "Quickly dodge" Everyone scattered one after another, and Ren Xiangtong couldn't dodge at all because his aura was exhausted. Fortunately, An Yi picked up Ren Xiangtong and stepped back to avoid the impact of the armored beast, and the armored beast saw Ren Xiangtong dodge and rushed towards Ren Xiangtong again.

An Yi should be able to dodge the attack by himself at the stage of the six-stage Blood Spirit Realm, but now holding Ren Xiangtong in his arms, he couldn't dodge the impact of the armor beast again, just when Jian Jiashu was about to hit himself, An Yi used his whole body spiritual power to throw Ren Xiangtong at everyone, thinking that this should be able to dodge the attack, but he didn't expect that after Ren Xiangtong was thrown, the armor beast had already arrived in front of him and crashed directly into An Yi's chest.

Under such a big impact, An Yi was directly knocked into a dozen meters away and lost consciousness.

After Su Lingyun took over Ren Xiangtong, he called out to everyone, "Hurry up and use your strongest move to attack the armored beast, otherwise we will all die here," and everyone sent their strongest blow to the armored beast after hearing this.

Accompanied by everyone's roar, Gu Chen's dragon scale breaking, Da Zhuang's jack pendant, Liu Kaiyang's armor-piercing spear, Mu Feng's Burning Sun Sword, Zi Ling's three-stage blood blade and other dozens of exercises instantly submerged the armored beast, and the place where the armored beast was located was blasted out of a deep pit dozens of meters wide, and the armored beast lay weakly in the pit and wanted to stand up again, but the injuries on its body were too serious, and in some places it had leaked out of the white bones.

After everyone saw that the armor beast had lost its ability to attack, they went to help An Yi to check how his injuries were, but An Yi was seriously injured and had lost his ability to move, so Gu Chen had no choice but to pick up An Yi and said to everyone, "Let's go quickly, go back to a safe area, if we encounter a demonic beast, we can't deal with it at all according to our current situation."

After hearing this, everyone agreed with Gu Chen's meaning, so they picked up An Yi and Ren Xiangtong and walked back.

After Su Lingyun took the demon core of the armored beast that was killed before, he jumped down the pit to kill the last armored beast, took away its magic core, and said to everyone, "We spent so much effort just for these demon cores, and two people were injured, this magic core must be taken, otherwise we will waste our efforts."

After Su Lingyun finished taking the magic core, she walked back with everyone, and it didn't take long for everyone to sit on the ground tired and gasp for breath after returning to the house they had built.

After placing An Yi and Ren Xiangtong, everyone began to recover their aura, and the next day after everyone recovered, they came to visit An Yi and Ren Xiangtong.

Ren Xiangtong is fine, but he was drained of his aura, and he almost recovered after a night's rest, but An Yi was not so lucky, and he still hasn't woken up after being knocked out by the armored beast.

After Ren Xiangtong woke up, he asked, "What's wrong with An Yi?" Everyone told Ren Xiangtong everything that happened that day, Ren Xiangtong looked at An Yi with complicated eyes and said, "I didn't expect him to save me, this is really an accident." ā€

Someone couldn't help but ask, "What was the death sacrifice you mentioned yesterday, and why did that armored beast suddenly have such terrifying powers?"

Ren Xiangtong said, " Death sacrifice is also a kind of exercise, but he is not created by people, according to legend, in ancient times it was a monster created by the exercise, at that time there was a tragic fight between people and monsters, the monster was defeated, in order to return to the defeat, the leader of the monster created this exercise after a hundred years of retreat, as long as the practice of this exercise of the monster can pass on all its own cultivation and exercises to others through the death sacrifice, but after the cultivation is transferred, the party who performs the death sacrifice will die, after this exercise spreads in the monster, the number of monsters has decreased sharply, but the number of high-level monsters has increased greatly, and the monsters could have defeated the human race because of this exercise and won the final victory, but the demonic beasts that reach a certain level will be punished by heaven and will fall."

"What is the punishment of heaven?" Lin Yu asked.

"Heavenly punishment is a supreme law in this area where we are located, as long as the killing exceeds the scope of their own cause and effect, they will be punished by heaven, cultivation is a kind of anti-heaven behavior, monks will seize the aura of heaven and earth to increase their cultivation when cultivating, so when the cultivation reaches a certain level, every time you improve a realm, you will suffer a calamity, and after successfully crossing the tribulation, you can go to the next stage of cultivation, and you will also get baptism, if the tribulation fails, you will die, and it will disappear, and the aura taken from heaven and earth will return to the heaven and earth again, and the death sacrifice is to take the cause and effect of others, to increase your own cultivation, even normal cultivation needs to suffer calamity, let alone taking advantage of other people's cause and effect to increase cultivation."
