Chapter 12: Beasts of the Deep
After following Zhang Zhixuan for a month, the high-ranking monks on the treasure ship already knew Zhang Zhixuan very well and knew that he was a master in the late stage of the Purple Mansion.
The Purple Mansion monks on the treasure ship, except for Hou Qingdong, who was the leader, none of them were Zhang Zhixuan's opponents.
Since the cultivation of divine consciousness cannot compare to the opponent, he can't rely on the opponent too close, and if he wants to keep up with Zhang Zhixuan's footsteps, he can only use the Qianli Sensing Mirror, hiding far away from the range of Zhang Zhixuan's divine consciousness and hiding behind the scenes.
Hou Qingdong smiled bitterly: "What is my method, I have been tracking the enemy for more than a month, and I can't give up halfway." I hope that the island where this Purple Mansion monk is hiding is a big island, which can settle a lot of people, and it will not be in vain for us to work so hard. ”
Yang Weizheng took a step forward and said tentatively: "Why don't we start the treasure ship and attack this person in advance?" If you can capture this person alive, you can also save a lot of spirit stones. ”
Hou Qingdong shook his head and said: "It is very difficult to capture a late stage cultivator of the Purple Mansion alive, once you make a move, I am afraid that you can only kill this person, and you may not be able to capture many spirit stones, this kind of useless battle is not necessary at all."
Besides, once we do it, so many days of preparation will be wasted, if we can't find a foothold on the island, we can still hold on, but the mortals below can't support it, these mortals are all relatives and friends of the monks on the treasure ship, and they must not give up. ”
Yang Weizheng frowned, and said with a worried face: "But we still don't know how far this person's lair is, this sea area is vast and boundless, and after half a year, the spirit stones on the treasure ship are only afraid that they will be below the warning line." ”
Hou Qingdong's face was solemn, and he said firmly: "Then you must follow this person secretly, you can't expose it, since you have set a strategy, don't change your determination easily." ”
The discussion between Yang Weizheng and Hou Qingdong Zhang Zhixuan naturally couldn't be clear, although he was cautious along the way, after all, he had never heard of the magic weapon of the Thousand Miles Sensor Mirror, let alone found that he had been exposed.
Seeing that the sky was already dark, Zhang Zhixuan began to recover his mana with a medium-grade spirit stone in his hand, he was already a Purple Mansion monk, even if he didn't sleep for a few months, there would be no problem. However, Jia Mengzhen has not yet opened up the Purple Mansion, and the Zhuji Dan monk has not yet opened the Upper Dantian, and his spiritual cultivation is not enough, if he does not sleep within ten days, it will cause a certain degree of damage to the physical body and affect the future path.
Zhang Zhixuan released a low-level hanging talisman to let Jia Mengzhen sleep in the air, while he closed his eyes and did not dare to make any omissions.
Time entered the middle of the night in the blink of an eye, not long after Jia Mengzhen fell asleep, the nearby sea suddenly became cloudy, and three or four miles below Zhang Zhixuan's closed eyes and recuperated, a huge whirlpool with a radius of ten zhang suddenly appeared, and a low roar faintly came from inside.
Zhang Zhixuan instantly put away the spirit stone, woke up Jia Mengzhen first, and the light in his eyes flashed, turning into a green rainbow and flying into the air.
It was already obvious that the mysterious beast in the sea was indeed coming at him, Jia Mengzhen had just woken up, and the beast in the sea was already less than a few hundred steps away from the two.
There were suddenly a few explosions in the whirlpool, and a hundred-zhang-long tentacle rolled towards Zhang Zhixuan, seeing this scene, Zhang Zhixuan breathed a sigh of relief.
"It turned out to be a thousand-legged monster, but unfortunately it is far away from Dafang Island now, otherwise the tentacles of the thousand-legged monster can be used to make a tough rope, even if it is a treasure ship, it can also be used for refining treasure ships. The scale armor on its body can also be peeled off, and it can be used as treasure armor for innate stage monks, which is somewhat useful. ”
The material on the body of the fierce beast is isolated from spiritual power, although it can also be used by immortal cultivators, but it is far inferior to the spirit beast, and there is no demon pill in the body of the fierce beast, and the flesh and blood cannot be eaten, and it is also very difficult to hunt, not much easier than hunting demon beasts.
If this thousand-foot monster hadn't been eyeing himself today, Zhang Zhixuan might not have spent his energy hunting this beast.
The fierce beasts in the sea hide in the deep sea, mainly relying on the huge ** power to hunt prey, and sometimes even some lone demon beasts will become the food of the deep sea beasts.
Zhang Zhixuan's shoulders were raised, and he released his fourth-order high-grade flying sword, and the Xuanhuo Sword emitted a golden light of more than ten zhang, and it was twisted into a ball with the tentacles of the thousand-foot monster, and a tentacle was cut off in an instant.
The thousand-legged monster roared in pain, setting off a huge wave more than ten zhang high, and hundreds of tentacles shot out in one brain, enveloping Zhang Zhixuan in all directions.
Seeing that Jia Mengzhen was already very difficult to resist, Zhang Zhixuan released a silent bell to cover him, and then kept running away, releasing the Xuanhuo Sword to fight with the thousand-footed monster.
The Millipedes were huge, and the scale armor on their bodies was so strong that even the foundation building monks didn't have enough mana to cut off their tentacles.
But when it met Zhang Zhixuan, its tentacles were like rotten wood.
In just a short period of time, more than a dozen tentacles were cut off by Zhang Zhixuan.
The Thousand-Foot Monster was furious, and dozens of tentacles wrapped around the silent bell, and began to squeeze the treasure with all its might.
The strength of the thousand-foot monster is extremely great, and there are sharp barbs on the tentacles, which can easily pierce the flesh and blood of the demon beast, and then drain the essence and blood of the prey, even if it is a fourth-order demon beast, it will become its prey at some specific times.
However, the silent bell is a fourth-order high-grade defensive magic weapon, and its appearance is far stronger than the fur of some demon beasts, although these barbs have left scratches on the silent bell, but unfortunately it cannot break the protection of this magic weapon in a short time.
If Jia Mengzhen hadn't dragged him down, Zhang Zhixuan would have been able to kill this beast using swimming tactics, but now that Jia Mengzhen was trapped, even if he consumed more mana, Zhang Zhixuan could only make a sudden move.
He let out a loud shout, and immediately released his magic weapon, the Golden Yang Thunder Fire Diagram.
The Jinyang Thunder Fire Diagram slowly unfolded, and three thunder beads were released in an instant. The power of these three thunder beads has already reached the fourth order, which is enough for a thousand-foot monster to drink a pot.
The three thunder beads hit the silent bell directly, and instantly blew more than a dozen tentacles into a scorched black, and Zhang Zhixuan also exerted force at the same time, violently urging the silent bell, directly breaking more than a dozen tentacles.
In a short period of time, a third of the tentacles of the hunt were lost, and the millipede also knew how difficult it was to deal with its prey. Although this beast has a weak brain, the need for long-term survival has also made them understand that it is impossible to risk losing their lives to hunt their prey.
The Millipede immediately chose to dive and fled to the depths of the deep sea.
If there were enough people to handle the beast's materials near Dafang Island, Zhang Zhixuan might venture deep underwater to hunt the beast.
It's a pity that this place is far away from Dafang Island, even if you hunt this fierce beast, the space on the floating cloud boat is limited, and you can't carry too many materials, and it is not good for Zhang Zhixuan to go underwater to hunt demon beasts, so Zhang Zhixuan simply let this thing live.
After repelling this deep-sea overlord with a radius of tens of thousands of miles, Zhang Zhixuan did not encounter any accidents in the following time, and returned to Dafang Island smoothly.
