Chapter 17: The First Entry into the Primeval Mountains
The Great Zhou Dynasty's annual spring hunting team was divided by state, and each week there was a designated area in the primeval forest within the imperial territory.
Of course, these designated areas are only valid for those below the Vientiane realm, and the masters of the Vientiane realm can kill demon beasts across regions at will, but they can only attack fourth-order demon beasts, otherwise there will be no need for spring hunting.
In the early morning, the air is fresh and pleasant, and when the sun breaks through the mist, a small group emerges outside the pristine mountains.
A few figures could be seen vaguely, and they were the few guards led by Mo Bufan. The guards are all full of spirit, in the past four months, Wang Po has used the blood spirit powder that Mo Bufan gave him to several brothers, and the injuries on several people have already healed. Now in this group of people, the cultivation is all moving mountains and nine times.
They are all very elite forces in the Mo family, although this is left by Mo Qingdi to protect his son, but they usually obey Mo Tianji's orders.
In this spring hunt, Mo Bufan's sevenfold realm of moving mountains is exactly in line with the standards of spring hunting, and Mo Tianji specially transferred these guards.
These guards were all carefully selected by Mo Xiao, and they were all brave warriors on the battlefield, and together they could be strangled in the middle of the ordinary Huayuan.
"Little Hou Ye!" Everyone shouted respectfully in unison. If they were still resentful of Mo Bufan more than four months ago, then now they have long been convinced of Mo Bufan, Mo Bufan completely trusts them, and has already informed them of his breakthrough to the seventh level of moving mountains. A peerless demon who can break through from moving mountains three times to moving mountains seven times in four months is definitely worth their loyalty and even their lives, as if they saw Mo Xiaodi when they were children.
"Uncle Wang, a few uncles. Is something ready? Mo Bufan put away his usual face.
"Ready, little marquis, have you really decided? Although it is a spring hunt, the danger is not high, but this is a primitive mountain range, the demon beasts are entrenched here all the year round, you have no experience in spring hunting, as long as you tell the head of the family, he will definitely let you quit, you really don't need to take such a big risk? "Wang Po, as the oldest, the most senior, the highest cultivation, and the most experienced in combat, naturally thinks more than others.
"Uncle Wang, I want to mature quickly to improve my strength, is there any other choice? My father said that every peerless powerhouse is killed from a battle of life and death. And this time our target is only the edge of the mountain range, as long as we are careful, we should not worry about our lives. Besides, don't I still have a few uncles to protect me? Mo Bufan replied firmly.
"Since the little marquis is confident, let's go! If there is danger, the little marquis must go first. Wang Po did not persuade again.
……
Mo Bufan and his party entered the edge of the primeval mountain range, looking at the silent deep forest, Mo Bufan and the others walked quietly, with a pair of vigilant eyes, constantly sweeping in the shade of the surrounding trees, and the palm of his hand pressed against the weapon on his waist, ready to deal with all emergencies at any time.
As a veteran of a hundred battles, even if he has not been in battle to kill the enemy in recent years, the cooperation, tacit understanding and vigilance between the brothers are still there, and they only need one look at each other to identify the signals of safety and danger from each other's eyes.
The performance of several guards made Mo Bufan very satisfied, and at the same time, they made their marching speed slow down. Mo Bufan turned his head, looked at a few guards, and slowly withdrew his gaze. Mo Bufan was quite relieved about the few guards behind him. As the team got closer and closer to the edge of the primeval mountain range, everything was safe, during which there were one or two small-scale demon beast attacks, just because the attackers were very low-level demon beasts, they were strangled by everyone as soon as they appeared.
Of course, among them, Mo Bufan's contribution is the largest, he has not experienced a real life-and-death battle, and this time he entered the primordial mountain range mainly to sharpen his actual combat ability and strength.
Before they knew it, everyone was already on the periphery of the primordial mountain range, and everyone found a relatively safe place to make a fire to digest the flesh of the low-level demon beast they had just killed. Although for a group of guards, the meat effect of low-level demon beasts is negligible, after all, they are all moving mountains and nine times, the next step is to open up Yuanhai, these low-level demon beasts have no help in opening up Yuanhai, at most let them recover faster.
Mo Bufan is different, not long after he broke through the Seven Layers of Mountain Moving, his body is exactly the time when he needs to replenish. And everyone is not beaten by iron, and no one has reached the cultivation of not eating the fireworks of the world, they are all hungry, and they need to replenish their energy and sacrifice to the temple of the five organs.
After eating the meat of the demon beast, Mo Bufan and several guards went on the road again, after two attacks, they became more cautious and cautious, however, in the primeval mountain range where the demon beasts often haunted, it was impossible to completely avoid the demon beasts, and everyone came to hunt the demon beasts, but his goal was a second-order demon beast comparable to the Huayuan realm, and he still had to try to preserve his physical strength and strength before encountering the Huayuan demon beast.
As the team went deeper and deeper, Mo Bufan and the others encountered more and more demon beasts, it had been seven days since Mo Bufan and the others entered the primordial mountain range, and now they had killed one hundred and ten demon beasts, but most of them were low-level demon beasts, and they could not pose any threat to Mo Bufan at all.
Occasionally, they will encounter second-order demon beasts, but Wang Po and the others are all veterans who have experienced dozens of battles on the battlefield, and it is not a problem for several people to cooperate to kill a few second-order demon beasts. It did not bring substantial damage and damage to the team. Mo Bufan and the others just spent a little physical strength, so they killed the demon beast, and then peeled off the skin of the demon beast and took the bones of the demon beast and gave it to Wang Po, and everyone ate the flesh and blood on the ground.
In the past few days, the strength of this team has improved the fastest is Mo Bufan, and now he has almost finished refining the muscles and bones of his right leg.
At this point, all the bones of Mo Bufan's limbs have been refined, and the rest is the body and head, and his realm has also reached the peak of moving mountains and eightfolds, and it is not far from moving mountains and eightfolds.
The essence of the second-order demon beast is partly in the flesh and blood. Spring hunting just hand over the bones and skins of demon beasts, the dynasty needs a large number of demon beast skins and bones to make leather armor to support the frontier, which is also the meaning of spring hunting.
Especially the skin of a monster beast with a high defensive power like a brown bear. The leather armor made of such monster skins can resist enemy attacks and reduce the casualties of soldiers.
In the past few days, after dozens of battles, large and small, Mo Bufan summed up some of his own shortcomings. Although his strength is strong and his control of the strength of the whole body is also very good, he has no experience in facing the enemy and has not experienced the test of life and death.
In a hard encounter with a second-order brown bear, if it weren't for Wang Po's timely reminder, Mo Bufan would have been seriously injured by a slap by the brown bear.
Mo Bufan was a little frustrated, but he didn't lose confidence.
The trees of the primeval mountain range were luxuriant, covering the sky and the sun, causing the light to be dim, and everyone's vision was blocked, Mo Bufan and the others did not dare to be careless, and the swords were no longer put in the sheath, and they held them in their hands to avoid having time to react.
As the crowd probed, they went deeper and deeper into the dense forest, and after walking some distance again, the dim vision gradually changed, and in front of them was a mountain wall, about 100 meters high, and there were only a few small trees on the mountain wall, and there was a large hole next to one of the small trees.
The entrance of the cave is pitch black, the small tree is about fifty steps from the ground, each leaf of the small tree is crystal clear, and there are three small flower bones at the top of the small tree, exuding bursts of fragrance, the fragrance is charming.
Mo Bufan inhaled a mouthful of aroma, his body was restless, his vitality was running wildly, and after a while, there were signs of breaking through.
"Little Hou Ye, what kind of treasure is this, just a wisp of fragrance, it has such a miraculous effect."
"I'm not sure either, I'll have to go up and see what it is. But do you see the big cave next to it? ”
"See, what's wrong?"
"If you look around, there is not a single low-level demon beast, there are fewer and fewer demon beasts along the way, this thing must be a great treasure, and it is guarded by powerful demon beasts. It's not that there are no demon beasts around, but they don't dare to approach. I'm sure there must be a very powerful monster in the cave. ”
"Then what should I do, is it just like this, although I don't know what that little tree is, it must not be ordinary, it will definitely be of great help to the cultivation of the little marquis."
"It's a great help, and you have to have a life, the demon beast in the cave has not come out now, probably because we don't have a threat to it and the treasure he guards, once we get close to that small tree, we will definitely be fatally hit. Let's go first, we didn't enter this time specifically for this treasure, and besides, we have also received benefits, people should be content. After going back, report the situation to the uncle and let him decide. ”
"Yes! Little Hou Ye, my subordinates understand! ”
After saying that, everyone quickly evacuated, and after they left, two faint blue lights appeared in the cave, the size of an adult's fist, and it seemed to be the eyes of some kind of demon beast.
