Chapter 188: Demon Beast
In the Book Sword Continent, the swordsman would rather face a powerhouse of the Yin-Yang Academy than provoke a scholar from the Military Academy. Because the scholars of the Military Academy are notoriously difficult. Their sophistication and supernatural powers can often make people feel very uncomfortable and lose very aggrieved......
With the presence of such a person, it is undoubtedly a great help to the squad. Unable to find the scholars of the Yin-Yang Academy, this captain can only retreat to the second.
The Academy of Soldiers does not restrict its disciples from cultivating the supernatural powers of other sects, and even encourages them to practice swordsmanship. No wonder he also had a sword on his back, the captain thought to himself.
"There are already six members of your squad, so I don't think I need to join. Li Changsheng said. This team already has two scholars, plus Chun Yuyi and him four, which seems to be a bit too much. Li Changsheng actually wanted to join a three-person team, and this team did not meet his ideas.
"Well, how about we pay you ten lower grade Yuan Stones as a reward?" the captain said, "And our team has also received a mission in the government of the Chu State, which is to hunt down a powerful dark scholar. With you on board, our hopes of success will be greatly increased. ”
"Okay then, but you don't need to pay or anything. I don't make money on this. Li Changsheng thought about it and nodded and said. He was interested in hunting down the dark scholar, and the captain told him his mission with a sincere attitude. However, he didn't want to be paid, so he thought that the members of a team should be partners who helped each other, and there was no need to involve any interests.
"Alright, without further ado, let's enter the Demon Beast Mountain Range. On the way, we can all communicate and get to know each other. The captain directly made a decision.
A group of people left the hotel and marched towards the Demon Beast Mountain Range. Among the seven young men and women, there were four swordsmen and three scholars. Five men and two women. They were all seventeen or eighteen years old. It didn't take long for us to be able to communicate happily. At the beginning, the five members all carried a package with them, which contained the necessary items to enter the mountain, and Li Changsheng and Chun Yuyi did not prepare anything more.
From the conversation, Li Changsheng also knew their respective names and cultivation realms. The leader of the squad is named Myeongho. From the Haotian Sword Sect, he cultivated to the sixfold martial spirit realm. One of the two women is named Yun Han. One is called Wen Renxiu. The disciple of the medical family is called Yu De, and the scholar of the Taoist Academy is called Liu An, and their cultivation is at the Xiucai level.
The Demon Beast Mountain Range is a stretching mountain that stretches endlessly as far as the eye can see. It is said that it stretches for tens of thousands of miles, and no one has fully explored it at all, and it is full of unknowns and dangers.
Once you enter the mountains, there are no roads at all, and there are thorns everywhere. Weeds that grow taller than humans. They all need to carve it out on their own. Three swordsmen, including two women, automatically took out their swords and slashed for them. This made Li Changsheng feel very embarrassed, but the other scholars were at ease.
Scholars do not pay attention to refining the body, they all rely on comprehending the scholarly qi, so they also take this for granted.
The surrounding area is overgrown with weeds, and there may be some monsters hiding in these hidden places. Once in the mountains, it is synonymous with danger. However, the speed of the first few people was extremely fast, and the front of the Demon Beast Mountain Range was full of small demon beasts, so there was no danger to people like them who cultivated.
Suddenly, there was a noise in the grass. Then a clump of weeds began to move. A small monster beast jumped up to a nearby tree, staring at them curiously with wide round eyes.
Li Changsheng saw that this demon beast was actually a fox. The whole body is covered with white fur. There is no trace of variegation, it looks very cute, and a pair of eyes are very psychic.
"It's so cute!" the woman from the Ethereal Sword Sect said immediately when she saw it.
"This is a first-level demon beast Xianghu, and it has no attack power at all. And they are said to be the most intelligent monsters, so they are very curious about humans. However, their actions are very sensitive, and the powerhouses below the Xuan Spirit Realm can't catch them at all, so they are not afraid of people. Minghao explained to everyone.
If you haven't been to the Demon Beast Mountain Range, you can't name some demon beasts at all. Even Minghao himself only knows part of it.
"It's a pity it's a monster. Not a spirit animal. The woman of the Ethereal Sword Sect said with some regret. Demon beasts cannot be raised by humans, only spirit beasts can be raised by humans. Even as a mount for humans.
"But I've heard that fox monsters are very special and have great intelligence. There is no upper limit to their cultivation. Some can cultivate into heavenly demon beasts and transform into human forms. Yun Han said suddenly.
"This is just a legend, the fox demon beast started as a first-level demon beast, and it is basically impossible to cultivate to become a heavenly demon beast. Minghao said.
"I hope we can kill some powerful demon beasts this time, so that we can't complete the mission on this trip, and we won't lose too much. Yun Han said so. Primary demon beasts are divided into levels one to nine, which is equivalent to one to nine levels of human qi spirit realm. And then above is the Martial Demon Beast, the Xuan Demon Beast. However, the cultivation of demon beasts is very difficult, and powerful demon beasts are basically rare. However, once there is a demon beast with such cultivation, it will be several times stronger than the human beings in the same realm. Because their bodies are many times stronger than human beings.
This squad has seven members, four scholars and three swordsmen, so they are very confident in their squad and can slash powerful demon beasts, even skipping the ranks. That's the power of a squad, and one person can't do it alone.
When the primary demon beast reaches the ninth level, it will condense the beast core, and the beast core is a necessary material for alchemists. If the core of a powerful demon beast is taken out and sold, it will definitely be a big price. The beast core of the ninth-level demon beast is worth dozens of low-grade yuan stones, while the beast core of the martial demon beast is priced at a medium-grade yuan stone. If they can hit the core of a mysterious demon beast, then the price of their trip to invite people is enough.
But in fact, the main purpose of their trip was to do a mission, to hunt down the dark scholar. Therefore, it has always been Minghao who is opening the way and moving towards the goal. As for hunting demon beasts halfway, it's just incidental income.
"Look there!" At this moment, Yun Han suddenly stopped and said to everyone.
The group stopped, looking in the direction she was pointing. And in the valley below, there was a circular pool, and in it was a clear lake. They are now halfway up the mountain, and from above, the valley looks like a patio.
And next to the waterhole, there is a huge monster beast drinking there. This demon beast is more than ten zhang long, and its body is like a small mountain, and it is definitely a behemoth. The body is covered with heavy skin, and there is a sharp horn on top of the huge skull. Four pillar-like thighs stood on the edge of the pool, their mouths wide open, and a huge stream of air gushed out. The stream in the waterhole was automatically sucked into its mouth, like a long whale sucking water, and in an instant, the water level in the waterhole dropped a lot. (To be continued)
