Chapter 57: Landing on the Island (Thanks to the Big Guy 20200522074108147 Tip Again!) )
The water is surging, and the mountains and islands are sturging. The trees are overgrown and the grass is abundant.
The Southern Islands are a paradise of great beauty. The sea breeze blows, the sand rolls, the shadows of the trees sway, and the beasts chirp in unison. The island is a miniature version of the fairy world. There are mountains, flowers, lava, and ice.
The group consists of a total of 22 islands. In addition to the main island, which is the largest in the central part of the country, there are two small islands in the north, a group of nine islands in the south, and six islands in the west and four islands in the east. The main island and the small island to the north are full of immortal beasts and exotic beasts of various attributes and rarities; The small island group in the south is dominated by water attribute and metallic fairy beasts; The small island to the west is mainly fire attribute and earth attribute immortal beasts; The east side basically only has wood-type fairy beasts.
The intact ecosystems that form on the islands are the basis for the survival of the animals. The food chain here is extremely complex, with many algebras, from small insect beasts the size of fingernails to monstrous beasts like mountains.
But it is precisely the existence of such a food chain that there are always "wars" on the island. In the eyes of the strong, these constant wars are "games", and for those who are weak, they are one "disaster" after another.
In the sand next to the beach, a group of sand spinose rats are foraging.
They are characterized by a pair of small, dripping black eyes and three long, shaggy tails. With the help of these three tails, they are able to move quickly in the sand like a venomous snake out of a hole, leaving three twisted marks in their path.
They are looking for pineberries buried under the sand, their favorite food. The sand rats searched for food as they propped up their two pointed ears and circled in all directions, alerting to other predators. If they notice something is wrong, they will immediately burrow under the sand and hide tightly.
There are also a few dried cattle on the seaside, and although they are called this name, they are actually an amphibian frog fairy beast. Legend has it that this fairy beast used to live in the deep sea, but later because it wanted to taste the food on land, it came from the bottom of the sea to the shallow sea, and finally successfully landed on the shore. To their lesser surprise, the shellfish on the beach are much better than those mollusks in the deep sea. The creatures of the deep sea are the most boring to eat, because the umami in their flesh has been drained by the endless pressure of the sea.
There are not a few large fairy beasts, and at this moment, a group of two-headed dragon sparrows are flying over the sky. They have a wingspan of seven or eight meters. Two dragon-like heads are attached to the bird's body through the dragon's neck, and their feathers are jet-black, and when they fly by in flocks, they obscure the sky and the sun, as if night is falling.
In the forest behind the beach, the big guys can also be clearly seen. For example, the Evil Ones, who seem to be lying meekly and napping beside the boulders, are in fact the fiercest hunters in the forest. Their thick limbs allow them to run and jump from tree to tree. When necessary, they also have a red flame burning on their cyan skin. A single scorn can easily take out an entire pack of burning wolves. Even the ferocious burning bear has to pay three points to it. Among the fire-type beasts, it is the real king.
Alien beasts are different from fairy beasts. They are relatively difficult to tame, and they have a lot of magic in their bodies. Subduing the alien beast is likely to make an immortal cultivator fall. Therefore, when a righteous immortal cultivator sees a strange beast, he will generally retreat. But sometimes when they have the time and energy, they choose to kill the beast. One is to avoid harming others, and the other is because the beasts are rich in spiritual power, and their organs, bones or fur are all high-quality materials.
The sky was lit up by the flying fairy swords, and all the beasts looked up, and these humans were about to break their normal lives from time to time.
Everyone landed on each side of the main island, put away the fairy sword, and stood on the long-lost land.
"Gao Zhen, do you want to catch one too?" Lai Ruoxue held a sand thorn rat and said to Gao Zhen. This poor little guy couldn't dodge the chess pieces shot by Lai Ruoxue, and was locked to the ground alive, allowing her to pick up from the ground and play with it in her hands.
"It's cute." Lai Ruoxue said, took out a pine berry from the ground and stuffed it into the hand of the little sand thorn rat. The little one's eyes lit up, and he munched on the pineberries, and lay down with two pointed ears as a sign of letting his guard down.
The corners of Lai Ruoxue's mouth hooked, and she reached out to stroke the soft hair of the little guy. She didn't stretch her fingers too deep, because she knew that the sand rats had small sharp spines hidden under their fur, and that many predators would be pricked by these small thorns when they bit them, and that the sand spur rats could use this to escape.
"I'm not interested, I'm going to find the 'Spider's Nest'." Gao Zhen said as he looked around, observing his surroundings.
This is the northern beach of the main island, with the sea on one side and two small northern islands on the opposite side. On the other side is an open sandy area with low hills to the south and woods on the east and west. High Nest is now at the intersection of beach and sand.
The vast majority of immortal cultivators choose to land here, because this sandy land is the largest open space on the main island, and the view here is wide and there are many immortal beasts. The people of Xinghai Pavilion and Canglang Palace also chose to land here.
As soon as those mass immortal cultivators landed, they began to chase the immortal beasts on the sand. They are not like those disciples of the Great Sect, those people only have blue quality or above immortal beasts in their eyes, and for these immortal cultivators scattered on the rivers and lakes, whether it is a white quality immortal beast or a green quality immortal beast, it is all money!
When some of them came, they didn't even prepare the "Texture Beast Talisman". Because they followed the large army to the southern islands not to collect the immortal beasts at all, but to catch a few small ones, or get some materials from the big ones, and wait until they returned to the city, and sell them all at a good price. This kind of business has always been very prosperous, because very few ordinary immortal cultivators dare to come to the Southern Islands to collect materials, and those capable disciples of the Great Gate Sect are forbidden to do this kind of thing.
"Go ahead, don't get caught!" Lai Ruoxue said, gently putting the little sand thorn rat back on the ground, the little guy turned his head to look at her, and the three big tails flicked, and immediately disappeared without a trace.
"Let's go over there and have a look," Yi Shuihan said, gesturing to the low hill south of the sandy land, "The spider's nest sounds like it's probably the nest of an insect-based fairy beast." I've heard that insect beasts are usually found in that low mountain, and I think I should be able to find some clues there. ”
"Didn't Baidu say where the 'spider's nest' was?" I want to confirm it again, for fear of delaying time.
"No, I only know that the spider's nest is in the southern islands...... Ah! What's going on? Earthquakes? Lai Ruoxue just wanted to take out her treasure bag, when she suddenly felt the earth shake. She didn't stand on her feet and almost fell to the ground.
The immortal cultivators in the clearing all felt something strange, and they all stopped what they were doing and looked around. The whole main island seemed to be shaken by some terrifying force, jolting and shaking like a sailboat floating on the sea.
The fairy beasts were much more sensitive than humans, and they had long been aware of the changes and fled in all directions. The sand rats all gave up their food and plunged headlong into the sand; The dry cattle that were wandering by the sea jumped back into the water and swam towards the deep sea; The two-headed dragon sparrow hovering in the sky also began to flutter its dark black wings, let out a piercing chirp, and fled towards the south.
"Oh my God! What is that! Someone suddenly screamed.
Everyone looked at the place where he pointed to the two islands to the north of the main island, separated by a sea from the main island.
I saw that the sea between the two islands suddenly changed, and the sea level gradually rose and slowly uplifted, and something huge floated from below the surface of the sea.
It was a huge guy, like a mountain, and it was only showing a little bit at the moment.
"That's ......" Gu Chenyu suddenly spoke, his voice trembling a little, with fear and awe in his tone.
"It's that orange-quality fairy beast." Han Dongdong said the second half of the sentence for him, his voice was much calmer than Gu Chenyu's, as if he had expected its appearance a long time ago.
"Who the fuck knows the name of that thing!" Gu Chenyu suddenly jumped up and shouted loudly.
