Chapter 122 Hunting the Canglan Tiger One
When the monk goes deep into the Southern Wilderness, he will encounter all kinds of dangers, and the most feared of them is to encounter high-level demon beasts.
Even on the edge of the Southern Wilderness, there are activities of fourth-order demon beasts, and sometimes even traces of fifth-order demon beasts can be found.
The fourth-order demon beast is equivalent to the Purple Mansion stage cultivator, and the fifth-order demon beast is even more equivalent to the golden pill.
At this level, the spirit of the demon beast will be greatly increased.
If they encounter such a high-level demon beast, it will be basically difficult for a low-level monk to survive.
In the Southern Wilderness, even if you hunt the demon beasts, it is difficult to occupy the spiritual veins where the demon beasts are entrenched, these places are far away from the Qingxuan Sect, and they will face the siege of the demon beasts at any time, relying on low-level monks, it is basically impossible to hold it.
Only by successive generations of monks and continuous exploration and opening up the boundaries of the Southern Wilderness can they gradually expand the sphere of influence of human beings and gradually drive the demon beasts into the depths of the Southern Wilderness.
Thousands of years ago, the three southeastern counties also came out of the southern wilderness, and it was precisely because of the continuous development of the monks of Qingxuanzong that this land became the hinterland of human beings.
More than 400 years ago, there were still third-order demon beasts hidden on Lushan, attacking human villages and towns everywhere.
Tiantai Peak, the ancestral land on Zhangjialu Mountain, was taken from the mouth of the Southern Wilderness Demon Beast after the foundation was built by Tairen Patriarch, and only in the last three hundred years, there was no trace of the third-order demon beast in Taicheng County.
Even in the current Gongshan County, there are still many third-level demon beasts, and in this kind of place, it is not suitable for ordinary humans to survive on a large scale.
As long as a third-order demon beast hunts once, it can destroy a town built by humans for hundreds of years, killing hundreds or thousands of people, without the protection of monks, mortals simply cannot survive in such a dangerous world.
This time, the monks who followed Zhang Zhixuan to Jiaohefang, including the vassal family, there were about fifty people.
These people Zhang Zhixuan let them stay in Jiaohe Fang to guard the city, although these Qi cultivation cultivators are considered a burden in the Southern Wilderness, but letting them cooperate with the formation to guard the spiritual veins can also play a great role.
Moreover, there is Qingxuanzong Zifu monk Wang Chengxiang guarding Jiaohe Fang, he is also a high-level array mage, and with the Qi cultivation monks in Fang City, the foundation building monks of more than a dozen families are also more assured.
After Wu Siyun left, the foundation building monks of the various families discussed it, each chose a goal, and began to act one after another.
The time limit given by Wu Laozu is only three months, and if he can't take a third-level demon beast in three months, he will be severely punished by Wu Laozu.
In order to be fast, some foundation building monks with good cultivation acted alone and killed their goals.
Zhang Zhixuan now has four third-order magic weapons in his hands, which has surpassed many foundation building stage cultivators.
Especially the foundation-building monks of the Immortal Cultivation Family, because the family has a big business and has to take care of all aspects, I am afraid that the magic weapon in his hand is not as good as the casual cultivation.
Zhang Zhixuan was also lucky, he first killed Lu Yi'an, and then killed the poisonous fire spider, and the spirit stones in his hands were sufficient, so under the introduction of Han Yan, he asked Chen Hongyuan to refine two third-order magic weapons.
There are four third-order magic weapons, plus Zhang Zhixuan did not use the Zhuji Dan to build the foundation, and the mana is thirty percent higher than that of ordinary Zhuji.
Although he only has three layers of foundation building now, his supernatural power and mana are no longer below the five or six layers of foundation building monks.
Therefore, when he went to Luyang Mountain, Zhang Zhixuan thought that he was still relatively sure.
As soon as he left Jiaohefang, after Zhang Zhixuan went deep into the Southern Wilderness, he began to be cautious and never consumed too much mana.
Once the mana was less than seventy percent, he would immediately use the medium-grade spirit stone to quickly replenish it.
Along the way, he never stayed in one place for too long, so as not to attract the attention of the demon beasts and be besieged.
In this way, after eleven days, Zhang Zhixuan came to the vicinity of Luyang Mountain.
The monster beast of Canglan Tiger has the habits of a tiger, and this kind of monster beast is the best at sneaking up and ambushing prey, so when he arrived at the place, Zhang Zhixuan was more careful.
Zhang Zhixuan is an alchemist, his nose is much more sensitive than that of ordinary monks, and after walking around Luyang Mountain for hundreds of miles, he smelled a commotion.
"It seems that the Canglan Tiger has not moved away, this smell should be its urine, and this place should also be its territory."
The territory of the demon beasts in the Southern Wilderness often changes, and maybe after a year, the territory of the demon beasts changes owners.
It turns out that the demon beasts that occupy the spiritual veins are either devoured by the victorious demon beasts and become nutrients, or they become wandering demon beasts everywhere.
Therefore, you must be cautious when you come to the Southern Wilderness to hunt demon beasts, and don't trust other people's information.
Unless it is a demon beast in the buffer zone of the mountain gate of Qingxuanzong, the demon beasts there have already been explored by Qingxuanzong, and the high-level demon beasts have also been driven out of the territory far away, so they are relatively much safer.
The last time Zhang Zhixuan and the others helped Hanyan earn good deeds, this was the case with several demon beasts they hunted, so they were able to hunt demon beasts in a targeted manner.
The three third-order demon beasts killed by the five of them, especially the Fire Crystal Ant Queen, were very difficult, relying on a large number of soldier ants, even the mid-foundation building monks, they didn't have special means, and they didn't dare to provoke them at all.
A few people were able to successfully kill the queen ant and exchange the Zhuji Dan for Hanyan, which caused a great sensation among the low-level monks of Qingxuanzong.
The ninth-level Qi cultivation cultivators of the Qingxuan Sect also followed their example to form a team to hunt third-order demon beasts and earn a high amount of good deeds.
Unfortunately, the cruel reality soon dampened their enthusiasm, and these rash monks soon suffered heavy casualties.
They didn't know at all that among Zhang Zhixuan's five people, there was also a third-order array mage. Even in the Qingxuan Sect, talents of this level will be protected, and just refining the third-order formation for the sect will be able to exchange for enough good deeds before the age of sixty.
Moreover, the formation mages above the third order are basically monks above the foundation level, and the monks in the Qi cultivation period are not moved at all.
Moreover, these monks who formed a team often couldn't work together, and they all wanted others to contribute and take advantage of their own paddling.
No one does dangerous things, and if there are benefits, the spoils are unevenly distributed.
is a team that can work together and be composed of several friends of life and death, even if they successfully hunt demon beasts, they will often die a lot of people. If you are a good friend when you die, even if you have achieved good deeds, you feel that the gains outweigh the losses.
It was Zhang Zhixuan's five people, who hunted demon beasts in the Southern Wilderness for three years, and finally lost two people, and even the family's third-order array mage, Zhang Menglong, actually died in the Southern Wilderness.
Therefore, Qingxuanzong's craze for hunting third-order demon beasts in the buffer land only lasted for two or three years, and it was quickly subsided by the bloody reality education.
And Zhang Zhixuan's five people, among the Qi cultivation period monks of Qingxuan Sect, have also become legends that are competing to talk about, and they have been praised by these low-level monks for a long time.
Zhang Zhixuan came to Luyang Mountain, slowly looking for the traces of the Canglan Tiger, and finally followed the traces of its activities and gradually approached its lair.
The tiger's nest is located in a groove under a cliff, almost hanging in the air.
This kind of tiger demon beast can fly short distances, and their explosive power is far beyond that of the foundation building monks.
There was once a Tsukiki monk who flew with Edgeworth, was ambushed by this demon beast, and pounced from mid-air, and had no time to prevent being devoured.
