Chapter 32: The thief shouts to catch the thief
Early the next morning, Li Wu carried a wooden knife on his back and hung a beast skin bag on his waist, and left the cave alone again.
This was the second time in his monkhood that he had gone out to kill.
Unlike the first time he went out to practice, this time he was more experienced and confident.
After all, now he is already a monk of the Blue Mang Realm, and he also has a weapon in his hand, facing the entire Shenlong Mountain Range, the spirit beasts above the third order and the human monks below the Qingmang Realm have long been looked down upon by him.
Even if it is a fourth-order spirit beast, he has a sixty percent chance of winning the battle, and he can still run if he can't beat it.
The only thing that is not so confident is that he has never killed anyone, and he must pass this hurdle in his heart.
After sneaking in the jungle for a while, Li Wu successively discovered several first-order and second-order low-level spirit beasts.
Although the spirit beast crystal nucleus in the body of the low-level spirit beast was also very valuable, Li Wu did not hunt these low-level spirit beasts.
One is because after his cultivation has risen sharply, he has no interest in low-level spirit beasts, and the other is because the target of his outing this time is a more dangerous high-level spirit beast and human cultivator, and he doesn't want to waste too much energy for a few low-level spirit beast crystal nuclei.
In order to get a better viewing angle, Li Wu flew up to a towering tree again.
Hiding in the dense canopy of the trees, looking around, except for some herbivores that had not yet evolved spiritual intelligence and a few small low-level spirit beasts, Li Wu did not find a high-level spirit beast, not even a third-order spirit beast.
Since breaking through to the Blue Mang Realm, Li Wu's perception has improved a lot.
Now, even if it was a thousand or two kilometers away, he could sense the vigorous spiritual power aura emanating from the high-level spirit beast.
Li Wu was completely sure that with his location as the center, there were no high-level spirit beasts within a radius of three thousand meters.
This is also a normal phenomenon, after all, the composition of spirit beasts is also pyramid-shaped like that of human monks.
The more advanced the human monks, the fewer the number of monks, and even fewer can stand on the top of the pyramid.
The same is true for spirit beasts, the more high-level spirit beasts there are, the fewer they are.
If you don't venture into the Demon Beast Ancestral Land Spirit Valley where there are many spirit beasts, it is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack to find a few spirit beasts above the fourth order in the Shenlong Mountain Range, which has a vast area that stretches for thousands of miles from east to west and is known as the "Sea of Ten Thousand Mountains".
If the Shenlong Mountain Range was full of ferocious high-level spirit beasts, it was estimated that most human cultivators would not dare to enter the mountain easily.
After sneaking in the jungle for a long time, Li Wu didn't find a high-level spirit beast until noon.
Li Wu decided to kill a low-level spirit beast first, and while obtaining the crystal nucleus of the spirit beast, he could also get some meat to roast and eat.
The number of low-level spirit beasts is much higher than that of high-level spirit beasts.
After some selection, Li Wu targeted a spirit ox.
Compared with other fishy beast meats, Li Wu is more accepting of beef.
Although this spirit cow is just a herbivore, because it has absorbed the essence of the sun and the moon and the aura of heaven and earth, and has eaten the heavenly and earthly treasures in the Shenlong Mountain Range, it has evolved into a spirit beast over time, and has even evolved blood-colored eyes that can shine.
Li Wu decided to use this electric eye spirit cow to try the wooden knife technique he had just cultivated.
With Li Wulan's cultivation in the Mangjing Realm, let alone a first-order spirit beast, it was a third-order spirit beast, even with his bare hands, he could solve the battle within a few breaths.
But Li Wu didn't do that this time, but wanted to kill the spirit ox with the wooden knife in his hand as much as possible.
After all, he had just finished cultivating the Wooden Knife Technique, and he had not officially used the Wooden Knife to fight the enemy.
This spirit bull is extremely ferocious, and its combat power is several times stronger than that of the ferocious bison.
Among ordinary beasts, the bison's combat power itself is top-notch, and it is even stronger than lions when it comes to fighting alone.
Because it was the first time to use a weapon to fight with a spirit beast, Li Wu was still a little inexperienced, and he was using a wooden knife, so he couldn't make the true qi released into the body form a sharp lethality.
He and the spirit ox swirled around for more than 200 breaths, and stabbed the spirit ox back and forth more than 100 times, before the spirit ox fell to the ground due to excessive blood loss, completely losing its combat effectiveness.
Li Wu stepped forward and killed the spirit cow with a single sword, and dissected the crystal nucleus of the spirit beast.
"Hahaha......"
Li Wu was about to cut some beef, and found a nearby place to make a fire to barbecue meat, when a burst of laughter suddenly came from behind him.
Li Wu turned around and found that five men had appeared not far behind him at some point.
Different from the spirit beasts that naturally exude a vigorous spiritual aura at all times, the cultivation of human monks is more restrained, although there is also a faint aura of spiritual power on the body that naturally emits, but only experienced people can judge the other party's cultivation at a glance.
If a human monk deliberately suppresses his cultivation and sneaks in the mountains and forests, it will be difficult to find out if he does not get closer.
Li Wu looked at the outfits of these five men, all of them were wearing animal skins, animal skin bags hanging from their waists, and leggings on their calves.
These guys all had weapons on their bodies, some of them in their hands, some of them behind their backs.
Two of the men were also carrying the corpses of two smaller, low-level spirit beasts on their shoulders.
The robbers' whereabouts are very secretive, and it is impossible to blatantly carry the corpse of a spirit beast around the mountains.
Li Wu judged that these people should be hunters who went into the mountains to hunt, and they were not the targets he wanted to hunt.
Li Wu hugged his fists at the five men, and smiled politely: "Several, hard work!"
One of the sturdy men looked at Li Wu and said with a smile: "Okay, boy, one person can kill a first-order spirit beast with a wooden knife! If my guess is correct, you should already have a small cultivation in the Baimang Realm, right?"
Li Wu's cultivation is the "Five Elements Yin and Yang Decision" from the Divine Domain, and he has the ability to suppress cultivation.
In addition, he fought with the spirit cow just now, using a wooden knife with sluggish and sluggish materials, and did not completely release his own cultivation, and he and the spirit cow swirled around for more than 200 breaths before hunting the spirit cow, giving people the feeling that his cultivation was indeed not too high.
It is estimated that these guys have just rushed over, and they are too far away to see his cultivation clearly.
Li Wu hugged his fists again and said: "Brother Tai praises falsely, I dare not be ashamed." ”
I didn't want to be strong, but I said to a young man with a beard on his face: "This kid can't even hear good words, he thinks that I am praising him!"
The bearded man laughed and said, "That's right, it took so long to kill a first-order spirit beast with no attack power, boss, you said he was fat, and he was still panting!"
"Hahaha......"
Listening to the words of the beard, several other men also laughed.
Li Wu heard that there was a bit of unkindness in the words of these guys, and frowned slightly: "Few, brothers and you don't know each other, it seems that there is no place to offend you, why do you want to laugh at me?"
The sturdy man looked at the corpse of the spirit ox on the ground, then at the animal skin bag on Li Wu's waist, and sneered: "Laugh at you? Let me tell you the truth, our brothers have been tracking this spirit beast for a few hours, and they also injured this spirit beast, but I didn't expect to be picked up by your kid. ”
Before Li Wu hunted this spirit cow, he did not find any injuries on the spirit cow.
He understands that these guys should be interested in making money, and they want to take advantage of the large number of people to rob the fire.
Li Wu smiled: "Do hunters also work part-time?"
The stout man was a little confused: "Part-time?" you...... What do you mean?"
"Stick, I don't understand this!"
Li Wu shook his head slightly: "Part-time is to engage in two professions at the same time. I'm asking you, are you not only hunters, but also some robbers who kill people and steal goods?"
The bearded temperament looked a little simple, scratched his head, and smiled awkwardly: "Brother, we are not robbers, if we are robbers, we will not only rob your prey, but may even kill your people." ”
The beard is not a self-confession, and it is clear that he wants to make money and wants to rob Li Wu's prey.
However, Li Wu could see that these guys should usually be mainly hunters, and being robbers was just a side hustle.
Especially this young man with a long beard should not have much experience as a robber.
Li Wu smiled slightly: "Actually, I didn't hunt this spirit beast to sell it for money, I was just a little hungry and wanted to get some meat to eat." As the saying goes, those who meet have a share, and since a few brothers want to get a piece of the pie, I don't have any opinion. I only have a little meat left, and the rest of the spirit beast is yours, are you satisfied?"
Li Wu didn't want to clash with these guys because of a spirit beast corpse, let alone the lives of these guys.
What's more, he didn't plan to ask for the corpse of the spirit beast in the first place, and if he threw it away, he would have thrown it away, so it was better to give it to these hunters.
He said nonsense: "Count you kid who knows current affairs, so it will save everyone from tearing their faces!"
The man who didn't want to be strong said: "This brother, what we want is a finished spirit beast, if you cut the spirit beast into a mess, we won't be able to sell it for a good price when we take it back, I think you should go elsewhere to find something to eat." ”
Li Wuxin said, don't you have to inch in?
Those who want to eat meat want to eat, and they don't think the meat is big enough!
This guy is really shameless enough.
Besides, with such a big spirit cow, how could these guys take it away if they didn't divide the spirit cow's corpse?
This is clearly bullying others to be lonely, and he will not dare to resist.
Li Wu wanted to have a seizure, but after thinking about it, he forgot it.
It's just for a little meat, there are many low-level spirit beasts and ordinary beasts here, and he can get them with just a fist.
He didn't bother to talk nonsense with these guys, and turned around and walked towards the depths of the jungle.
Li Wu is still too kind, he has just come to this world in front of him for dozens of days, and he doesn't know how sinister this world is.
He had just taken a few steps, and he didn't want the stout man to suddenly say loudly, "Stop, leave your animal skin sac!"
Li Wu's animal skin sac not only contained the crystal nucleus of the spirit beast he had just killed, but also the fifteen spirit beast crystal nuclei he had obtained when he went down the mountain last time he went down the mountain to practice.
Li Wu turned around and said coldly: "Give me a reason!"
The stout man said: "The reason is very simple, I suspect that you are a robber, and you have robbed the contents of the animal skin bag. ”
The thief shouts to catch the thief!
