Chapter 14: The Demon Core

When Ao Xing ate the Fire Pig Demon, he had just torn open his abdominal cavity, and a fiery red crystal was suddenly revealed inside, glowing slightly.

"Hey, it's the Demon Core."

Ye Wei walked over, and after obtaining Ao Xing's consent, he took out the demon core, wiped the bloodstains, put it on his hand and looked at it for a while, and then handed it to Gu Bei.

This magic core is about the size of a thumb, like a red crystal, and it has magic energy flowing like water in it, which is very beautiful.

Gu Bei took the demon core in his hand, observed it carefully, and asked Ye Wei, "What's the use of this thing?" ”

Ye Wei replied: "The magic core can store magic energy, which is generally only used by magicians, and can be used to make magic wands, or various magic weapons. ”

"That means that Eastern cultivators can't use it?" Gu Bei was a little disappointed.

"The cultivation system of the Eastern Continent is different from that of the Western Continent, so it is impossible to use the Demon Core, but I heard that there are some refiners who are already trying to create a Demon Spirit Weapon that can use both the Demon Core and the Spirit Stone, and I don't know if it has succeeded."

"However, although we can't use the Demon Core, we can sell it, this kind of thing, like the Demon Beast's Inner Dan, is very popular in the cultivator's trade, and it is very valuable."

Ye Wei pointed to the thumb-sized magic core in Gu Bei's hand and said, "This is the magic core of the first-order Demon Beast Fire Pig, which can be sold for twenty taels of silver, and if there is a shortage in the market, the price can still rise." ”

As soon as Gu Bei heard that he could make money, he immediately became interested, he was poor and scared in his previous life, and when he mentioned money, his eyes lit up.

"With such a small magic core, can it really be sold for twenty taels?" Gu Bei wanted to be sure again.

"That's right, the first-order demonic beast is very powerful, it can release magic, just like the fireball just now, ordinary first-order martial artists can't deal with it at all, only second-order martial artists, or first-order monks and magicians, can deal with first-order demonic beasts."

"Moreover, not all demonic beasts can condense the magic core."

Ye Wei pointed to another Fire Pig Demon Beast and said, "For example, this Demon Beast, it didn't release magic just now, it is probably because it does not have a magic core in its body. ”

Gu Bei asked the guards to cut open the abdominal cavity of another fire pig demonic beast with a sharp short knife, and after looking for it, he didn't find the demon core.

Ye Wei continued: "It is precisely because of this that the price of the magic core is so high, for the magician, or the magician who makes the magic weapon, the magic core will never be enough. ”

Gu Bei looked at Ao Xing and said, "Can Ao Xing eat the demon core?" ”

Ye Wei replied affirmatively: "Of course you can, just like the demon beasts in the east can devour the inner pills of other demon beasts, the western dragons can also eat the demon core of the demon beasts and improve their own strength." ”

Gu Bei's face showed a tangled and painful expression, and the demon core in his hand was clenched tightly, this is twenty taels of white silver.

However, he thought about it for a while, and still resolutely stuffed the demon core into Ao Xing's mouth.

With such a small magic core, Ao Xing didn't bite it, and swallowed it directly with a "grunt", just like a child eating jelly beans.

The corners of Gu Bei's mouth twitched slightly, twenty taels of silver, it's gone, it's distressing!

But he knows very well that at this stage, improving Ao Xing's strength is the most important thing.

As long as Ao Xing becomes stronger, he will be able to obtain more magic cores in the future.

When Ao Xing can't finish eating, Gu Bei can take it and sell it, and the silver and even gold of the white flowers will come, won't it come?

Thinking of this, Gu Bei's mood was much better.

That first-order demonic beast fire pig, Ao Xing only picked the best meat, as well as pig heart, pork liver, etc., and ate it, and he didn't want the rest.

The other Fire Pig Demon Beast without a demon core was roasted and eaten by Gu Bei, Ye Wei, and those guards.

Gu Bei's appetite is getting bigger and bigger, plus Ye Wei, who also eats a lot, and those guards, this fire pig demonic beast has been eaten cleanly.

"It smells so good!"

Not far away, an expedition team smelled the smell of barbecue and leaned over to this side.

This expedition team has fifteen people, one of whom is a second-order martial artist, and the rest are first-order martial artists.

There are many such expedition teams on the outskirts of the mysterious forest.

They usually hunt demon beasts or demonic beasts in the mysterious forest, obtain demon pills, demon cores, and find some rare herbs, and then take them to trading places in exchange for materials or money needed for cultivation.

Ye Wei stared at this group of people vigilantly, and whispered to Gu Bei: "Your Royal Highness, this is an expedition team to go into the mountains to hunt for treasures, be careful when encountering it." ”

"These people have no bottom line, and there is no one to control them in the mysterious forest, and murder and overselling goods happen from time to time."

Gu Bei nodded, in this mysterious forest, danger not only comes from demonic beasts or demon beasts, but also from the same kind.

For the sake of profit, these people can do anything.

Even if he is the prince of the Holy Dragon Kingdom, in a dangerous place like the Mysterious Forest, as long as the benefits are big enough, there will be people who dare to take risks.

It's a big deal to kill him, throw the corpse to the monster and eat it, perfect evidence of destruction.

When the expedition team approached, they spotted a baby dragon.

The eyes of the members of the expedition team suddenly lit up, such a young dragon is not easy to encounter, if they catch it and sell it, they will definitely make a lot of money.

"Roaring ......"

Ao Xing was keenly aware of their hostility, and immediately bared his teeth at them, letting out a low roar in his throat.

Ye Wei held the two basin-sized bronze war hammers in his hands in time, and said coldly to the expedition team: "Do you want to roll yourself, or let me smash your heads one by one?" ”

"Third-Order Martial Artist?"

The leader of the expedition team was taken aback, they were not enough people to fight a third-order martial artist.

The captain showed a smile and said, "Don't be so excited, we have no malice, it's just that we're hungry and smell the smell of meat, so we can't help but come over and take a look, since you don't welcome it, then forget it." ”

"Let's go."

The expedition team slowly retreated, and after retreating to a safe distance, they immediately turned and left.

"It's a pity, there is a third-order martial artist, otherwise, you can find a way to kill them and catch that young dragon back."

The members of the expedition team expressed regret.

They didn't know that even without Ye Wei, Ao Xing's combat power was far beyond their imagination, and a mouthful of dragon flame passed, not to mention them, even the fourth- and fifth-order martial artists couldn't withstand it.

A dragon that can breathe fire, or magic, is extremely strong, and even a young dragon is not something that ordinary warriors can deal with.

After the expedition team left, Gu Bei and the others continued to take Ao Xing to hunt on the periphery of the mysterious forest.

After Ao Xing ate the flesh and core of the demonic beasts, he lost interest in ordinary beasts, and he went directly to find those demonic beasts or demon beasts.

Half a day later, Ao Xing captured two more demonic beasts, one demon beast.

These two demonic beasts did not have a demon core, and the demon beasts did not condense the inner pill, so they could only eat meat, which made Ao Xing a little disappointed.

The time gradually came to evening, and the sun gradually sank in the west.

"Your Royal Highness, the mysterious forest at night is too dangerous, let's go outside, anyway, Ao Xing's food is enough, come in tomorrow morning."

The night is when all kinds of ferocious demonic beasts and demon beasts are infested in large numbers, Ye Wei himself is nothing, Gu Bei and those ordinary guards have no cultivation, and their safety in the mysterious forest is not guaranteed.

"Okay, then get out first."

Gu Bei finally relived his life, so he naturally cherished his life.

He listened to Ye Wei's advice and left the mysterious forest with Ao Xing and the guards, as well as the corpses of the two demonic beasts and one demon beast.

The groom, who had been waiting outside, finally breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Gu Bei, if he was allowed to spend the night here alone, he really didn't dare, at least he could strengthen his courage if there were many people.

In the evening, Ao Xing ate another demonic beast, after preying on the demonic beast, in just half a day, the momentum it exuded has become fierce, and it has begun to have the power of a dragon.

At night, Gu Bei slept alone in the carriage, while the others slept on the ground outside.

"Buzz!"

Suddenly, he felt the black bead pendant on his neck slightly hot, and he looked down to see that the black bead actually floated up, pointing in the direction of the mysterious forest.

"Could it be that there's something in there that attracts it?"

Gu Bei frowned, he realized that the black bead pendant should have found something, but the mysterious forest was too dangerous, and at night, the roars of various demonic beasts and demon beasts were extremely terrifying.

His strength is too poor, and if he goes in at night, he is looking for death.

"It seems that we can only wait until tomorrow to go in and have a look, hoping for an unexpected harvest."

Gu Bei grabbed the black bead pendant and stuffed it back into his clothes.

The black bead pendant did not insist, it was no longer hot, nor was it shining, and it was quietly attached to Gu Bei's body.

This night, Gu Bei didn't sleep well, he had one bizarre dream after another, and saw many terrifying monsters in his dreams......
