Chapter 123: The Hunter
Although it is also possible for demon beasts to produce spiritual consciousness after mutation, that kind of situation is very rare, and even if they can generate spiritual consciousness, at most they will only have a few more wisdom than their peers, and these wisdom cannot be the same as human beings.
But this Demon Beast King can not only command all the demon beasts in the mountains and forests to advance towards human territory along a specific trajectory, but also train guards in advance to protect themselves? How is this possible?
Thinking about it, Xie Qingning did not hesitate when he raised the red blood in his hand, nor did he show the slightest mercy, even though the flesh and blood of these demon beasts were several times harder than ordinary beasts, and the blood gushing out was redder and more smelly, but after all, they were only the evolution of beasts, and they were still vulnerable in the face of the powerful power of human cultivators.
I saw that her figure was like a spirit goose constantly flying, and between the knife in her hand, the red blood surrounded the layers of blood light, and its sharp blade as long as it cut through the skin and flesh of the demon beast, it must leave a deep trace, making the blood fly sideways, and also making the demon beasts let out a terrible and terrifying cry.
In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen demon beasts were seriously injured, but they still stubbornly protected the front of the demon beast king, refusing to give up a single cent.
Xie Qingning stopped his body and gasped, and after his body swept up again, he stepped on the body of a demon beast, no matter how it struggled, it couldn't shake her off, and couldn't help but scream in the sky.
At the same time, Xie Qingning flipped his left palm, and the fire spirit in his palm suddenly appeared, and suddenly released a strong wave of fire, attacking straight towards the group of demon beasts in front of him.
The flames came so fast that the four demon beasts in front of them were already scorched black before they had time to react, and they fell to the ground without even screaming, and the green smoke continued to rise into the air, and a strange fragrance floated in the air.
The flames blessed by the fire spirit are naturally not ordinary fires, but only such flames can penetrate the thick skin and flesh of the demon beasts and directly strangle their lives.
Suddenly smelling this fragrance, the nearby demon beasts immediately surrounded them, and their natural ferocity made them completely ignore the green smoke and the fragrance of the same kind, and they rushed up to eat them, and ate those demon beasts in an instant.
Xie Qingning, who was standing far away on the demon beasts, watched the scene of their snatching, and couldn't help but have a surge in her stomach, and she almost vomited, fortunately she swallowed a Hui Yuan Dan in time to recover the intense consumption of physical strength, otherwise it was really unbearable to bear such a bloody and cruel scene, it felt like eating a fly, and it was extremely disgusting.
The Demon Beast King, who had killed several guards, finally became angry, and there was a long roar in the sky, and the same kind of people surrounding it retreated one after another as if they were very panicked, leaving a huge open space in an instant, like a Shura battlefield specially prepared for them.
Xie Qingning was stunned for a moment before he realized that this guy was going to fight with him, what a lot of courage!
The corners of her lips were slightly hooked, and she jumped down from the back of the demon beast, clenching the red blood in her hand, and making a posture of fighting at any time.
The Demon Beast King's triangular eyes kept flashing with light, and he didn't know what it was thinking, but it didn't pounce immediately, but seemed to be waiting for the right time to launch a killing attack.
If the enemy doesn't move, Xie Qingning will naturally not move, after all, he doesn't know how powerful this demon beast king is, let alone whether he really has super strong spiritual sense, or if he just knows how to command his own kind.
But whether it was the former or the latter, Xie Qingning had no intention of leaving its life tonight, after all, it was an extremely dangerous creature, and it was best to kill it for the sake of the innocent people in a radius of thousands of miles.
Unlike this battlefield in the depths of the mountains and forests, Lan Yongzhi, who had been fighting with the demon beasts for more than an hour, gradually felt that his arms were sore, his legs were weak, and the loss of physical strength and true qi was beyond imagination, which made him feel very difficult.
After all, they are demon beasts, and if they don't infuse their true qi when swinging their swords and slashing, they can't pierce their flesh and skin at all, which is what gives him the most headaches.
He couldn't help but turn his head to look in the direction of the four guards, although they were also struggling to kill, but after all, without the blessing and supplement of true qi, it was very difficult to kill, and it would take a long time to surround and kill a demon beast, so it was definitely not a way to go on like this.
Just when Lan Yongzhi was about to fly over and rescue them out for a while, he suddenly heard several whistles nearby, and when he followed the sound, he saw a group of people rushing on the left and right, although they were wearing cloth clothes, they were all extremely strong, and they were all holding iron ropes and nets and other things in their hands, like tools specially brought to demon beasts.
Lan Yongzhi couldn't help but float to the left in surprise, and a middle-aged man with a mustache walked out of the group, and after his eyes swept over the messy and bloody scene, he immediately clasped his fist at him and said, "Thank you Brother Tai for stopping the beast tide, and I thank you on behalf of the people of the entire Pingshan County." ”
"If you can't see the road, just draw your sword to help." Lan Yongzhi was not a person of many words, and after a polite sentence, he asked, "Are you here to hunt demon beasts?" ”
The middle-aged man smiled a little embarrassedly, "Well, yes, anyway, I want to kill them, why don't you bring their flesh and blood back to make a feast, so as not to bury the heavenly things." ”
"You're a merchant?" Lan Yongzhi's keen gaze swept over the more than forty people behind him, and he could see that these people were ordinary people, but they were not ordinary people, no matter how burly they were, even their spirit and spirit were different, I couldn't tell what it felt, in short, it was definitely not as simple as ordinary people.
For his unique vision, the middle-aged man expressed infinite admiration and said, "Your Excellency has good eyesight, yes, we are the people of Zhaoping City, although these friends are not our buddies, but they are our companions, and we are all hunters." ”
The word "hunter" made Lan Yongzhi suddenly realize, he has read poetry and books since he was a child, of course he has heard of this profession, especially in Xizhou, there are many "hunters", just like the folk "hunters" or "farmers" are so common, and these people are dedicated to hunting monsters, and then sell them to major restaurants, restaurants that can cook the feast of spirit beasts are not affordable by ordinary people after all, because the meat of monsters is ridiculously expensive, who makes monsters have thick skin and meat, and it is difficult to hunt.
It is precisely because there are countless "hunters" who die in the mouths of demon beasts every year that the price of the demon beast banquet will continue to rise, so that it has risen to a price that ordinary monks can't taste, and even the son of an immortal cultivator like Xie Huazhao can't afford that price, let alone ordinary casual cultivation.
Lan Yongzhi's mind was suddenly awakened by a scream, and when he turned around, he saw that one of the four guards had been bitten off his left arm by the demon beast, and his heart tightened suddenly, and he immediately jumped forward, and took out the bloodied companion out of the demon beast*** to treat Yanyu's injuries.
And the middle-aged man no longer hesitated, looked up at the "hunters" who had copied the bread, waved his hand and gestured, and everyone took action.
I saw that some of them pulled nets and some pulled ropes, the formation was constantly changing, and those white nets were made of unknown materials, and they looked particularly strong. The giant web is interspersed, once a group of demon beasts are wrapped like spider webs and cannot move, someone immediately stepped forward and cut off their heads with a knife through the silk web, turning them all into corpses and resolutely withdrawing the web, and then hunting other demon beasts, the speed and tacit cooperation are beyond imagination, and they soon hunted dozens of demon beasts, which made Xie Huazhao and others dumbfounded.
