Chapter 34: Death
The three of them did not continue to move forward, just by the edge of the stream, silently meditating and cultivating, waiting for the dawn.
Less than an hour had passed, and before dawn, the sound of surging waves suddenly sounded.
The three of them woke up together, stood up one after another, and looked around with a frown.
I saw that there was really a big wave in the upper reaches of the stream, and the shallow water level of the stream had begun to rise sharply.
The three of them hurriedly retreated more than ten zhang and stood on a large bluestone more than two zhang high.
Boom, boom, boom......
The waves roared, like thousands of troops galloping by.
"This creek also has a high tide?"
Qu Yu wondered.
"You see, there are star crystals in the tide too!"
Tao Yuyan's eyes were sharp, and after she looked at it for a while, she suddenly stretched out her hand and pointed to the front, and shouted in surprise.
"Huh, really!"
Ji Fan also saw the star crystal, and suddenly felt strange in his heart.
The tide was rushing, and among the layers of waves, there were pieces of glittering star crystals.
"It seems that the star crystal we found at the bottom of the creek was swept by the tide. ”
Qu Yu was not stupid, he thought of a lot in an instant, and said, "It is very likely that there are star crystal veins in the upper reaches of this stream. ”
"If there really is a star crystal vein, and there will be star crystals in this stream, there should be a star beast guarding it nearby. ”
Ji Fan thought more, and he said suspiciously: "But we have stayed here for a long time, and we have not seen any star beasts appear." ”
"There are star crystal veins, and there are no star beasts nearby, so there is only one situation. ”
Tao Yuyan opened her mouth to analyze: "This should be the territory of a very powerful star beast, so ordinary star beasts don't dare to set foot in this easily. ”
"Huh?"
Qu Yu was frightened for a while, a star beast that can be called a powerful star beast in this foggy forest, a star beast that can own a large territory, at least a second-level star beast.
"Don't worry too much, even if there is really a powerful star beast, it will definitely stay in the most important place and will not come here. ”
Ji Fan was quite calm, his eyes were still staring at the tide.
After a cup of tea, the tide finally stopped, and the water level of the creek began to drop rapidly.
"Brother Ji Fan, do we continue to go upstream now, or go downstream?"
Qu Yu asked first, and then analyzed with himself: "If you go upstream, you will definitely be able to find a big opportunity, but there will be a greater risk; if you go downstream, you can also get some star crystals, but the number of star crystals will not be too much." ”
Wealth and danger are sought!
If a vein of astral crystals can be discovered, it will be worth the risk.
However, the three people in this team, except for Ji Fan, who has not weak combat power and the ability to avoid danger, the other two are too weak, once they encounter danger, it is a question of whether Ji Fan can protect himself, and it is difficult to take care of Qu Yu and the others.
Ji Fan is not an adventurous person, he prefers to have everything under control, so after some consideration, he said, "Let's go downstream." ”
With the profound knowledge of his previous life, countless memories of extremely high value, and the two star souls of ice and fire, Ji Fan felt that his rise was not a difficult thing.
What he needs more is stability, steady cultivation!
Many geniuses with demons and evil qualifications died because of accidents.
"Hmm. ”
Qu Yu and Tao Yuyan nodded at the same time.
The three of them then changed direction and began to head downstream of the creek again.
After the high tide, the stream calms down again, and the flow returns to its original slowness.
The star crystals swept by the tide are scattered at the bottom of the stream, shining and easy to spot.
Until dawn, the three of them did not reach the end of the stream.
After searching for these times, they obtained a total of two hundred low-grade star crystals and eight medium-grade star crystals.
If eight medium-grade star crystals are exchanged for lower-grade star crystals, they can almost be exchanged for a thousand!
In other words, they have harvested about 1,200 low-grade star crystals, and if they exchange them for star coins, there are definitely people who are willing to pay two million star coins.
"Rich! Rich!"
Qu Yu is a rich boy who likes to do business, and he was overjoyed after probably estimating the harvest of this night.
"There are so many star crystals that are brought out by the tide, and the star crystal vein upstream must be abundant!"
Tao Yuyan couldn't help but feel a little moved.
Even Ji Fan had an urge to change his plan.
Early in the morning, they stopped and rested while eating and drinking.
"With so many star crystals, our package can't fit anymore. ”
Qu Yu said sullenly: "If we can have a storage magic weapon, even if it is just the lowest storage bag, we can make it much easier." ”
"The storage magic weapon is too precious, except for the City Lord's Mansion and the Pope's Temple, I'm afraid that the entire Hundred Lotus City will also find one. ”
Ji Fan shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"Generally speaking, the procurement deacons of the Medicine Valley Foreign Affairs Hall, in order to facilitate the carrying of the purchased things, the Medicine Valley will equip them with storage magic weapons. ”
Qu Yu looked at Ji Fan and said curiously: "Brother Ji Fan is also a procurement deacon now, why didn't Medicine Valley equip you with a storage magic weapon?"
"Hehe, my identity as a procurement deacon is just that Caihe girl walks outside so that I can have an identity, and there is only one identity jade plate, no other equipment, and no procurement tasks. ”
Ji Fan explained with a smile.
"Harvest Girl......"
Qu Yu was stunned and didn't ask any more.
Indeed, without a storage magic weapon, even if there was a star crystal mountain in front of the three of them, the three of them would not be able to take much away.
Carrying things is a challenge, and a large number of star crystals can be heavy.
"We can't be too greedy, since we don't have much with us, we don't have to venture upstream. ”
Ji Fan quickly adjusted his mentality, and after breakfast, he got up and said, "Let's continue with the original plan and pass through this foggy forest first." ”
At this moment, the three of them were just about to set off, when a group of young monks came from upstream.
There were ten young monks, each with a sharp blade in his hand, and each carrying a large package.
When they saw Ji Fan and the three of them, they quickly surrounded them, all of them with unkind faces.
From the faint overflowing aura from these people, Ji Fan could judge that most of their cultivation was above and below the fifth order of the Star Bone Realm, and only one of them was the seventh order of the Star Bone Realm, although there were many people, but their combat power was limited.
However, the costumes of these people are generally the same, and they are obviously from the same family or sect.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I don't know what to teach us?"
Ji Fan took a step forward and asked.
"Leave your parcels and then leave. ”
There is one person who cannot be refused.
The person who opened his mouth was the only seventh-order cultivator of the Star Bone Realm on the other side.
"Why?"
Qu Yu said angrily: "Isn't it because there are many people to rob?"
"It's just robbing you, what's wrong?"
The man sneered and replied, "I advise you to be more sensible, and don't lose your life for some things outside your body!"
"You!"
Hearing such a straightforward threat from the other party, Qu Yu trembled with anger.
"If you want to rob us, your strength alone is not enough. ”
Ji Fan also said confidently: "I also advise you, don't steal chickens and rice, and if you don't harm people, you will be destroyed." ”
"It seems that you feel that you are not weak. ”
The man said lightly: "But I have to remind you, there are still many of our people around here, including many ninth-order masters of the Star Bone Realm, and even powerhouses who have just advanced to the Star Body Realm, if you don't know how to lift, even if you have some skills, we only need to delay for some time, and you will definitely be dead!"
"Less scareless!"
Qu Yu rolled his eyes and said, "There are people near you, don't we have anyone?"
"Seventh Master, don't talk nonsense with them, since they are killing themselves, why don't we fulfill them!"
"Yes, just kill them!"
"Their packages are all bulging, they must have stolen our star crystals!"
A few people on the other side began to make noise, and they were gearing up and looking ready to move.
"We left the package, will you really let us go?"
Ji Fan immediately showed weakness and pretended not to dare to fight hard.
"Of course. ”
The leader said, "We have no grievances with you, only for the stars on your body, and there is no need to kill you." ”
"You're not afraid that we will seek revenge in the future?"
Qu Yu asked.
"Haha, you don't even know who we are or where we come from, how can you seek revenge?"
The leader laughed.
"Reasonable. ”
Ji Fan also nodded, and then opened one of his packages, revealing the star crystal inside.
Just as the eyes of the other party lit up, he waved his hand and threw the package that had been opened into the stream.
Pieces of star crystals, scattered everywhere.
"Star Crystal!"
"This piece is mine!"
"Get out, don't grab me!"
Everyone on the other side didn't think much about it, and at this moment, they all went to compete for the star crystal.
The encirclement collapsed at once.
"You guys get out of the way!"
Ji Fan snorted lightly, the long sword in his hand was already unsheathed, and it stabbed at the other party's leader with great speed.
That person only had a seventh-order cultivation in the Star Bone Realm, and he didn't expect Ji Fan to be the first to attack, in the face of this fast, steady and ruthless sword, all he could do was try his best to turn sideways.
He turned sideways, and really avoided being stabbed in the throat by the long sword, allowing the long sword to pass against the skin of his neck.
But just a sideways turn can only allow him to live a little longer.
If Ji Fan doesn't make a move, once he makes a move, it will be impossible for a young monk of the seventh order of the Star Bone Realm to dodge.
After he stabbed the air with a sword, the blade of the sword was horizontal, and while retracting the sword, the sharp blade cut through the skin of the opponent's neck, cut the tendons and veins of the opponent's neck, and cut through the opponent's throat.
The long sword was withdrawn, Ji Fan's figure flashed, and he killed several other people who were snatching the star crystal.
These young cultivators who were only fifth-order in the Star Bone Realm, facing Ji Fan, a ninth-order master of the Star Bone Realm who had awakened the Star Soul, were like a herd of sheep encountering a fierce tiger, and they were completely vulnerable and powerless to resist.
Ji Fan actually knew very well that he didn't have to expect these people to show mercy to his three subordinates, even if the three of them obediently left the package, they would also be attacked.
In that case, he can't be soft-hearted.
Worried that these people really had a stronger team nearby, Ji Fan could only kill these people, not wanting to leave a living mouth to ventilate and report the news, causing trouble for the three of them. Peerless Star Soul
