The sheer size of the monitor lizard's ride, the encirclement of a hundred ironclad light horsemen, and the appearance of three priests had already attracted the attention of most of the sergeants around Akiyoshizawa, but it was only because of the strict military discipline that these sergeants did not gather to see what was going on.

At this time, these sergeants also found that some of the top generals of the Yangjiantian Mountain Military Department had walked out of the camp.

As for the priest in the pale gold priest's robes, most of the sergeants did not know their identity at all.

Because they had never seen a priest in this kind of costume at all, they only knew that the priest wearing the gray priest's robe was the soul suppressor, and the person wearing the purple priest's robe was an ordinary war priest.

......

Because he had never seen the priests in the army before, Lin Xi didn't know the meaning of the various priest robes, but from the attitudes of the other three priests, he could see that the priest wearing the pale gold priest robe was above the other three. But when he heard the priest's question, he didn't answer it, but said calmly, "I don't understand what you mean." ”

"What you don't understand, but that's the crux of it. ”

The gentle-faced priest surnamed Xu looked at Lin Xi and said, "Yun Qin doesn't know how many people with sincere faith want to become priests, but not many people can really become priests. ”

"To become a priest, one must not only be proficient in the teachings of the priests, and not violate the teachings of the priests, but also learn how to receive revelations from the heavens from the sun, moon and stars, from the wind and clouds, and foresee the changes in the climate. It is necessary to master the art of healing, not only to cure some physical diseases, but most importantly to cure the wounds and darkness in the soul. It is necessary to soothe the souls of living beings, know how to communicate with monsters, know their likes and dislikes, and influence them with the purest heart. ”

The priest surnamed Xu looked at Lin Xi with a smile, as if spreading faith, and said, "Generally, it will take at least six or seven years from a priest apprentice who is familiar with the beliefs and teachings of the priests and can abide by the priesthood's teachings to a war priest. Demon beasts are far more difficult to communicate and influence than humans, so only war priests who have been war priests for many years and can skillfully soothe souls by various means can become spirit priests. You have to understand that only a very small number of priests in the army can eventually become a priest of the spirit priesthood, and you have only been exposed to some of the superficial courses of the spirit sacrifice system, and you don't even know what to do as a priest and what conditions you must have to become a priest... You're not even a priest, so how can you suddenly summon a demon beast to serve as a priest?"

"If you are already a war priest recognized by the Priests' Temple, there may be a reason to convince us to bring such a black fox cat back, but you are not even a priest, and if you come back with such a black fox cat, it is only possible that bad luck and bad luck have entangled you, and it has come here through you, and it must be eliminated immediately. ”

Lin Xi's brow furrowed even tighter, because he felt that no matter what the reason, when talking about the life and death of Jixiang, a seemingly harmless and lovely creature, no matter how kind the smile was, it could not hide the true aggressiveness and cruelty.

"What is the criterion for determining whether or not he is a spirit priest?" Lin Xi said as he looked at the priest in a pale gold priest's robe.

His tone seemed to be much calmer and calmer than before, but if Jiang Xiaoyi, Bian Linghan and the others who were familiar with Lin Xi were here, they would know that Lin Xi's insipidity had already regarded the other party as an opponent and had put away the respect in his heart.

The priest surnamed Xu frowned slightly, and he didn't say anything for a while.

"I don't know a lot about priesthood, but I do know that as long as I can have a real demon beast as a companion... He is the priest of the spiritual priesthood. Lin Xi also smiled, looked at the priest, and said, "When I was in the academy, the teacher of the Spirit Sacrifice Department once said that only the brightest people can influence demon beasts, and demon beasts have no way to forcibly subdue them by force, and having a real demon beast is the only criterion for judging the spirit priest." Even if he is an apprentice priest, as long as he can have a real demon beast, he will immediately become a spirit priest. Since this is the only criterion, and now I can do this, even if I have not attended a day of priesthood classes, it means that I have such abilities and qualities by nature, and I am already a spiritual priest. ”

With a smile, Lin Xi patted the dark green man-eating monitor lizard waiting beside him.

The monitor lizard, which was larger than the average monitor lizard, suddenly lowered its body even more, and let out a low roar at the same time.

The breath that erupted from its mouth formed a visible wind current, which made the robes of the three priests in front of it rattle, and the eyes of many soldiers watching from a distance froze.

The fishy breath sprayed the priest surnamed Xu, and the mildness on his face turned cold.

"You're right, whether you can have a powerful demon beast as a partner, whether you can make this demon beast fight side by side with you, this is indeed the only criterion for me Yun Qin to judge the spirit priest. The priest in the pale golden priest's robe looked at Lin Xi coldly and said coldly, "But you're like this... Just want to say that you are a spiritual priest, which is tantamount to a fool's dream. If it is some simple beast control means to envoy demon beasts, even if it is a spirit priest, then the cave man who sits on this monitor lizard can also be regarded as a spirit priest?"

"I might as well tell you that the true spirit priest is almost heart-to-heart with his demon beast companion, and his demon beast companion can understand his mind without any gestures or even words. ”

When he said this, his voice suddenly became much colder and higher-pitched.

As his voice sounded, a black shadow with an astonishing speed suddenly flew up in the redwood forest in the distance.

Almost at the same time, an eagle whistle like a hole in gold and cracking stones sounded in the air, the sound was so sharp that it was like countless boiling teapots hissing in their ears, and for a while, almost all the sergeants felt a tingling pain in their eardrums, and they all looked towards the sky with their faces changed.

Lin Xi couldn't help but tilt his head slightly and turn to look.

What a big black eagle.

This black giant eagle is three or four times the size of an ordinary goshawk, giving people the feeling that a pair of hooked claws can even directly grab a buffalo and fly into the air, and in addition to its huge size, the feathers and claws on this black giant eagle even glow with a metallic luster, giving people the feeling that the feathers and hook claws all over the body are as hard as if they were made of dark iron.

"Golden Cracked Vulture!"

Some people drank out the true identity of this "giant eagle".

The Golden Split Black Vulture is a monster beast found only in some of the highest peaks in the Dragon Snake Mountains, not only is it amazingly powerful, its hook claws can even pierce through steel, but its violent hiss when it dives close to the ground can even make ordinary soldiers have a headache and lose their combat power.

Such a demon beast suddenly appeared and flew towards the priest wearing a pale golden priest's robe, and the identity of this priest had already completely revealed that he was a spirit priest.

Lin Xi's eyes narrowed slightly.

The aura on the body of the Split Gold Black Vulture that flew above him like a huge black table made him feel powerful for the first time.

He could feel that with his cultivation, he might not be able to deal with this golden black vulture.

"I am a true priest of the Spiritual Priesthood. ”

The priest wearing the pale golden priest's robe understood Lin Xi's vigilance, and two beams of cold light shot out of his eyes, and he said sneeringly: "A true spirit priest doesn't need to use any words and gestures to get his demon beast companions to cooperate... At this moment, if I want to, if I want to attack you, my golden black vulture will not hesitate to attack you. ”

......

Ji Xiang had been listening to the conversation between Lin Xi and the people around him.

Of course, it couldn't understand what these people and Lin Xi were talking about.

One of its paws touched its belly, still thinking about the taste of dried meat and vegetables it had eaten before... Its belly is not yet fully full.

Jerky... Dried vegetables... So it's been immersed in the flavors of both things.

Until the sudden appearance of this cracked gold black vulture.

It suddenly thought of the frozen heron, and thought of the big bag of dried meat and vegetables, and its dark eyes suddenly became brighter.

It had previously thought that the big bag of dried meat and vegetables was exchanged for the ice heron and those scout sergeants.

The sergeants around it at the moment looked very similar to those Scout sergeants.

So in it, the ignorant foodie felt that he understood... It thought that Lin Xi was still asking these people for dried meat and vegetables... In this case, such a big blackbird...

Lin Xi was still groaning slightly, thinking about how to phrase it, because he naturally understood that he was not auspicious with the means of a priest, and as for the monitor lizard, it was completely a relationship between the food and the animal tamer, and it was not compatible with the spirit priest, but the auspiciousness of "understanding" was already instantly excited.

Its pair of dark eyes stared at the golden black vulture that landed, trying to cooperate with the owner to give Lin Xi a greater sense of oppression, and intuitively felt that this big black bird seemed to be very powerful, and he didn't know how much stronger it was than the flying heron.

So it thought about it seriously, and then, its four claws instantly broke away from Lin Xi's clothes and stretched out into the air with all its might.

"Babble...!"

It let out the loudest scream it had ever come into the world.

Its chest cavity and abdomen visibly collapsed rapidly, but a powerful aura burst out from its body in an instant, and it and Lin Xi's body instantly formed an inexplicable wind flow, converging around it.

"Whew!"

A white light erupted from its mouth, bringing out a violent sound of breaking the air, and before anyone could react, it shot directly at the golden black vulture, which was descending and wanted to hover low in the sky.

Lin Xi was stunned.

The priest wearing the pale gold priest's robe was stunned, the three priests were stunned, Tian Moshi and the others who stopped to watch from a distance were all stunned, and all the sergeants who were looking at this side were also stunned.

No one expected such a change to occur suddenly.

Only the golden black vulture in the air felt the deadly danger for the first time, and felt the terrifying aura fluctuations in that white light.

It let out a hiss for the first time, and flew forward with all its might, not daring to make a hard connection, trying to dodge the blow first.

Seeing that with its speed, it could completely avoid this white light, but when this white light was still a few meters away from it, everyone saw that its black feathers suddenly floated with white frost and turned white, and its body was visibly stiffened.

The white light rushed towards its body, and it couldn't dodge, only a pair of iron claws that shone with a cold luster grabbed at the white light.

There was a pop of "poof".

A chilly cold air burst through the air, turning into a cold cloud in an instant.

The water vapor in the air suddenly condensed, turning into countless tiny ice droplets scattered down.

The entire body of the Golden Split Black Vulture suddenly stiffened, its claws and abdomen were covered with crystalline ice, and its entire body swayed in the air for a moment.

"It's amazing..."

Jixiang felt that he was a little weak, he looked at the big black bird, and felt that the other party was so powerful, he tried his best to use his strength, but the other party was still in the sky... So it waved its four paws again with some admiration, and its three furry tails floated up.

"Don't!"

The priest's face in the pale golden priest's robe suddenly turned pale, and only then did he react, sensing what was about to happen, and a violent scream burst out of his mouth, causing many people's eardrums to buzz.

However, at this time, with a "snort", a second white light had already erupted from Jixiang's mouth, rushing towards the swaying golden black vulture, which had been frozen to the point that it had almost lost its ability to think.

The white light burst open, turning into a beautiful cold cloud with a crystal luster, completely submerging and enveloping the figure of the golden black vulture.

It was just a breath of time before the golden black vulture, which turned into a mass of ice, fell from the sky, snapped, and smashed to the ground.

"Whew..."

Jixiang gasped for breath with satisfaction, and pressed his two paws on his stomach again, thinking that this time he was finally better.

...

The screams of the priest in the pale gold priest's robes stopped abruptly, and his body began to tremble uncontrollably.

The other three priests froze, as if they had turned into ice sculptures, and Tian Moshi and the others in the distance, as well as countless sergeants who had seen this scene with their own eyes, also seemed to have turned into ice sculptures.

...

Jixiang was a little puzzled, what are all these people doing here?
