Chapter 406: Stealing Wine
In order to save time, Shang Xia rampaged all the way into the gathering place of the alien beast monkey group in the depths of the mangrove forest, and was naturally ready to be besieged by the monkey group.
But what Shang Xia didn't expect was that the Changbai disciple who had been ignored by him before, after Qi Yunxiu fled and Lang Qingyun died, instead of escaping, he actually dared to boldly attack him, and the timing was extremely clever.
But what made Shang Xia more interested was how exactly this person avoided his perception and lurked behind him?
You must know that after Shang Xia began to cultivate the "Heaven and Man Induction Chapter", not only was he able to converge his qi to avoid the eyes and ears of most fourth-order martial artists, but his own martial arts will perception also became extremely sharp.
Being able to avoid his will perception in advance was obviously not possible with this Changbai disciple alone, and in fact, this person had always been in Shang Ke and Shang Xia's perception before.
But when he fought with two fourth-order martial artists in a row before, he ignored the existence of this person, never thinking that this person was not only extremely bold, but dared to take advantage of the fire at this time, and even had something on his body that could cover his qi.
If it were to be replaced by any third-order martial artist, even if it was also a third-order Great Perfection martial artist, in the face of this kind of closed-door dog-style group beating and pinching attack, I am afraid that he would have already been helpless, and at most he would have to make a useless struggle.
But when it is Shang Xia who faces this seemingly desperate situation, everything will become possible.
The Red Star spear broke the tip of the spear, although it could still be used, but Shang Xia, who was holding the spear in one hand, looked like a nondescript sword move as he slashed the spear horizontally!
The true yuan is surging, the qi is vigorous, and the sword light is flashing!
Shang Xia relied on his true yuan in one breath to lay down the "Liangyi Qiankun Sword Formation" that he renamed the "Seven Peerless Sword Array"!
Seven two-pole sword intent, a total of fourteen two-pole sword qi, under the only match of the origin of the two yi, the sword light was differentiated and converged, and an invisible sword array was laid around Shang Xia's body, killing all attacks that might threaten him.
The various things thrown by the monkey group turned into dust under the sword array, and the sneak attack of that Changbai disciple finally retreated with all his strength after continuously breaking through the four-layer sword net under Shang Xiabu.
However, how could Shang Xia let the other party retreat easily?
The other party was able to break through his four-layer sword net in one go, which was obviously not an easy person.
I saw Shang Xia pull out the Jade River Sword from his cuffs, directly causing the Liangyi Qiankun Sword Formation to skyrocket, and even the range covered by the Sword Array expanded, and he wanted to encircle the Changbai disciple in the Sword Array.
However, this Changbai disciple was extremely decisive, and immediately retreated after missing the blow.
The sword array behind him expanded, and several sword rays surged, and he just threw out a touch of sword light without looking back, annihilating most of the sword rays behind him, allowing the last two remaining sword rays to submerge into his body, his body trembled and snorted, and then fled towards the outside of the mangrove forest at a faster speed.
This person's strength is obviously not under the Changbai heir who has fought with Shang Xia before!
Seeing this, Shang Xia could only glance at the back of this person fleeing, and at the same time secretly noted down this person's momentum, and then began to turn around to deal with the dozens of monkeys in front of him.
Nearly a hundred first, second, and third-order monkeys ambushed and beat them, but they couldn't get Shang Xia a bit.
At this time, after Shang Xia freed up his hand to counterattack, how could these nearly 100 alien monkeys be able to resist Shang Xia's offensive?
But I have to say that these alien monkeys themselves have extremely high spiritual intelligence, even if there is no fourth-order monkey king to command at this time, many alien monkeys can no longer sense the danger coming, and constantly jump in the forest, fleeing in the direction away from Shang Xia.
When the rest of the sword array around him began to expand outwards and reveal its grandeur, it was too late to run.
These monkeys are not very tall, but they have a lot of strength, and their agile bodies can jump up and down from tree to tree, making it extremely difficult to capture their shapes.
However, at this time, Shang Xia didn't need to catch them one by one, he just volleyed the Yuhe Sword in the air, and a large piece of sword qi first shuttled back and forth within thirty zhang of his body, killing all the alien monkeys who didn't have time to escape.
Then, as Shang Xia suddenly released countless sword qi at the edge of the limit range of the sword array under his control, a large area of sword light shot out thirty zhang away, expanding the distance of fifty zhang again.
Dozens of alien monkeys fell from the trees without even making a scream.
Only the last twenty or so alien monkeys were left who either saw the opportunity early or were lucky enough to escape the sword qi shooting, and while letting out a terrible howl, calling their monkey king, they fled in different directions above the treetops.
In the depths of the redwood forest, Shang Xia gathered his sword and stood, first taking a deep breath.
Although the Liangyi Qiankun Sword Array was a swordsmanship he had cultivated when he was in the Liangyi Realm, such a large-scale display of this set of sword array supernatural powers still formed a great burden on Shang Xia's own True Yuan.
Fortunately, the power of this set of sword array supernatural powers is considerable enough, even from the perspective of Shang Xia standing on the threshold of the Four Heavens now, it is enough to deal with the siege of many martial artists of the same rank.
But at this moment, a slightly shrill roar came from the edge of the mangrove forest.
Shang Xia's method of slaughtering all the alien beast monkeys just now was obviously known to the fourth-order monkey king who was fighting with Shang Ke.
The angry Monkey King couldn't get rid of Shang Ke's entanglement for a while, and could only let out a howl of resentment and sadness.
The howl of a fourth-order alien beast is usually enough to shake the heart of a low-level martial artist, and the true yuan is disordered, and the more serious direct vitality is out of control, and the body is seriously injured.
However, for Shang Xia, the howl of the Fourth-Order Monkey King only made him feel a little impetuous.
However, this also reminded Shang Xia that he had to speed up, the strength of the fourth-order monkey king was already very likely to surpass Shang Ke, and now that the Monkey King's group was slaughtered, the fourth-order monkey king would probably go crazy.
Shang Xia shuttled through the woods and soon found the center where the monkeys gathered.
The ground here is a mess, and there are all kinds of wild fruits discarded on the ground.
However, in the forest, there is a special smell mixed with a faint aroma of wine, fruit and medicine.
Shang Xia's gaze quickly fell on the trunks of several of the thickest and strongest trees.
Shang Xia had long noticed that the trunk of this mangrove forest was extremely dense.
The monkeys carved out a hole in the trunk of the tree that was large enough to make sake, and the sake inside did not seep out at all after it was formed.
Even when Shang Xia tried to perceive which tree trunk the monkey wine had been brewed with his own martial will, it seemed to be blocked by layers, and it was extremely difficult for him to penetrate deep into it.
However, this was not difficult for Shang Xia, who only took a turn under a few stout trees and could see the mud seals used by the monkeys to seal the holes in the trees.
If you look closely at how hard the mud seal is, you can almost estimate how long the monkey wine in the trunk has been sealed, and thus you can roughly judge whether the wine has been successfully brewed and the quality of the wine.
Although the monkey king of the monkey group is a fourth-order alien beast, the monkey wine brewed in the trunk is the most unlikely to appear in the fourth-order wine.
Shang Xia came to the mud seal on the trunk of the tree, and after carefully opening the mud seal, a strong aroma of wine suddenly gushed out from the hole in the tree.
Shang Xia just took a sip, and then he felt that his mind was a little dizzy, and he carried it
The heartbeat accelerated a few times, and the vitality in the body was quite floating.
Shang Xia hurriedly activated the true yuan in his body, and at the same time, the martial arts will looked inwardly at his body, and soon discharged the inhaled wine in his body.
"Luckily, I actually found the third-order monkey wine at once!"
Shang Xia was happy in his heart, the monkey wine that could affect him must be a third-order undoubtedly.
It is rumored that the Monkey can increase its strength by drinking Monkey Wine, and can even be used as an advanced potion to complete the promotion of its own rank.
The third-order monkey wine in this tree cave is thought to be used by the Monkey King to reward the third-order alien monkeys in the group, and to promote the second-order alien monkeys.
Of course, this kind of drink can't be compared with the real advanced potion after all, even if it has the effect of promotion, it needs to be drunk in large quantities for a long time to be possible, and this effect is very likely to be only for the alien monkey group.
However, it is an indisputable fact that monkey wine is used to assist the cultivation of martial artists.
Shang Xia took out a spirit bottle from the Jinyun box, put his true yuan into the bottle and took a shot towards the entrance of the tree hole, and suddenly a light red slightly turbid liquor flew out, and then it was continuously sucked into the spirit bottle.
After a while, the monkey wine that had been sealed by the alien monkey group for several years was stolen by Shang Xia.
Shang Xia quickly replaced another mangrove tree with a thick trunk, and after uncovering the mud seal on the trunk, this time the aroma of wine gushing out of it was much lighter, and the vitality inside was only strong.
Obviously, the quality of the monkey wine in this cave is obviously inferior.
Shang Xia originally wanted to use another spirit bottle, but in the end, he changed to a spirit bag, because after he took out the wine, he found that this cave monkey wine was not even of the second order, and the quality was only the first order.
Disappointed, Shang Xia even looked for two tree holes for winemaking, but they were only first-order wines.
It wasn't until the fifth tree cave was found that he finally found a second-order monkey wine in a cave, filled with a spirit bottle.
Without waiting for Shang Xia to look for the sixth tree cave, Shang Ke suddenly heard a long howl from the mangrove forest.
Shang Xia's heart sank, this was the code that the two had agreed on before, indicating that Shang Ke's delay for the fourth-order Monkey King was about to reach the limit, urging him to leave as soon as possible.
The strength of that fourth-order alien beast monkey king really surpassed that of the fifth uncle!
Shang Xia quickly jumped onto the next tree trunk, and after uncovering the mud seal on it, he quickly pulled out a bottle of second-order monkey wine from the tree hole inside.
The time for a stick of incense is coming soon, and he can't stay any longer, at this time, not only Shang Ke is about to be unable to hold on, but I'm afraid that other fourth-order martial artists are also about to come.
Shang Xia was not greedy, although he knew that there must be tree caves used to make monkey wine in the surrounding mangroves, but he had hollowed out the monkey wine in the six tree caves, and he must have already obtained the lion's share.
But just as Shang Xia was about to leave, his eyes swept and he suddenly caught a glimpse of the center of the monkey group, surrounded by mangrove giant trees with a thickness of more than two people, but only in the middle of the position, there was a mangrove tree only the thickness of the bowl mouth standing in the middle.
Originally, such a thick trunk is very common in mangrove forests, but at this time, it is a little strange among the mangroves surrounded by two people hugging each other and more than thick.
Shang Xia, who was about to leave, was already standing on the branch of this mangrove tree, and found that there was actually a fist-sized mud seal here.
Shang Xia was curious, so he directly untied the mud seal.
Unexpectedly, a pale red wine mist suddenly gushed out from inside, Shang Xia sniffed lightly, but almost fell off the branch.
This is...... Fourth-order monkey wine?
