The snake girls are slowly growing up, and now they are no different from ordinary people in terms of actions and words, but their delicate and beautiful appearance makes Yumei a little worried.

Shocking Wind always laughs and doesn't answer, he spends most of his time with these snake girls every day, it's normal for Yumei to be jealous, but what he doesn't dare to think about is that the woman's vinegar jar is bigger than he imagined. He didn't mean to stop, these snake girls had a great effect on his own strength.

Now he is worried that he has not much silver on him, and if he wants to develop in this world, money is essential. You have to find a way out. After hesitating for two days, I finally decided to open an auction hall, an auction hall, there is no such thing in Wolf City, and the future must be good. It's a way to make huge profits, but it's also dangerous. The stakes are not small.

What to do is so much that I thought of it, but what is the auction hall going to sell? When he was talking to Yu Mei, he was inspired, elixir, something that would improve a cultivator's battle qi cultivation. But there were very few alchemists in Wolf City, they were like very rare things, and it was impossible to invite them.

So, he began to buy a large number of books on alchemy, because there was no one to guide him, and he didn't gain anything after reading it for a long time. However, he was still able to give general guidance on the way of refining medicine. I don't know how many times I practiced, I spent a lot of herbs, and I didn't succeed once. But without giving up, nothing can be done overnight.

To open an auction hall, the first thing to do is to choose a good location, looking at this compound, he nodded with satisfaction, this is a good location, located in the most lively and prosperous street market of Wolf Chang. Since you can't sell pills, then other things are okay, such as all kinds of fierce beast inner pills and all kinds of rare spirit grasses. If you want to get the elixir and spirit grass, you have to go into the mountains and forests, but your own manpower is simply not enough. While you still have a little money, go hire some mercenaries first.

It took nearly five thousand taels of silver to hire fifty young and strong mercenaries. Most of them are early stage cultivators, and although their strength is very weak, they can still help themselves a lot.

With his current strength and manpower, he can't really do anything to some fierce beasts with Neidan. I can only go to some places where humans have not yet been to find some spirit grass to prepare for the opening of the auction hall in the future.

A few days later, he began to lead the fifty mercenaries to the back mountains of Wolf City. Yumei's heart was slightly worried, but she didn't stop it, because she knew that it was difficult for her to convince what the wind decided.

After handing over his mother and Xiaoyu to Yumei, he walked to the mountains and forests of the back mountain without worry, this time the purpose was the legendary Elixir Valley, listening to the legends of the people in Wolf City, where there were groups of fierce beasts, but there were many strange spirit grasses. As long as you can find it, the matter of opening your own auction hall will be settled.

At the beginning, the trees in the mountain forest behind the mountain were not very dense, and after walking for half a day, the trees became denser and denser, and finally it was impossible to pass directly. Looking at the wolf city farther and farther away, those mercenaries began to be a little worried, if it weren't for the high price to hire them, they would definitely not come to such a place to risk, because in their hearts, this is a forbidden area for humans, and stepping into it means that the more death is getting closer and closer.

Knowing what these mercenaries were thinking in their hearts, since they couldn't go here, they would take a detour, their food and time were sufficient, although they said they were here to find the spirit grass, but they were actually here to explore the way and prepare for entering it in the future.

Skirting the towering mountains and walking into an endless desert, he couldn't help frowning as he looked at the hot yellow sand. With such a large desert, it will take at least a few days to walk, and if you can find the legendary Elixir Valley, it will not be much, if you can't find it, it will be in vain.

Some of these mercenaries began to retreat, although they had to live by licking blood on the edge of the knife in order to survive, but this was simply a gamble with their lives.

The frightening wind hesitated for a long time, and then gritted his teeth, since he came, there was no reason to go back.

The hot weather, the roaring sand, the endless desert, it looked like a bloody mouth, ready to swallow them.

The desert has a strange temper, it is extremely hot during the day, and it becomes cold at night, so in order to prevent the wolves in the desert, it is necessary to burn all around the place where he sleeps.

I don't know why, he slightly felt the battle qi in his body moving gently, this subtle feeling made the frightening wind feel a burst of ecstasy, and the cultivation of the war spirit seemed to be not far from him.

Sitting cross-legged, his consciousness slowly moved into his mind. The sea of hearts is still as calm as before, as if it didn't exist in the first place. A piece of hunger is ethereal.

Time slowly slipped through his fingers, and by the time he finished cultivating, the sky was already slightly white. In the desert, this is really the time when the desert beasts are hungry, and they are the easiest to attack.

Suddenly, not far from the tent, there was a wild roar, and everyone was awakened at this moment, and the surrounding crows suddenly flew up and disappeared into the desert.

The mercenary immediately walked out, clenching the weapon tightly in his hand, and looked vigilantly at the fierce beast not far away that looked like a mountain, with a rough body and fierce eyes. It was the first time they had seen such a fierce beast, and their mouths opened wide in surprise.

"Young Master Long, I'll go, let's go!" a bold mercenary suddenly spoke.

A trace of ruthlessness flashed on the frightened face, "I can't go, the strong beast will have its own territory, we have reached its territory, it will not let us go, you just protect the water and food here, that fierce ** me!"

The beast's fist-sized eyes stared at the terrifying wind that kept rushing towards him, and its huge body began to move rapidly, swinging its huge fist and smashing it towards his head. The frightened wind was shocked, and he didn't dare to fight with it, so he had to retreat back. The powerful battle aura on his body made Shocking Wind lose some confidence, and it was difficult for him to get close to it. The only way to do that is to go around to the top of its head. It has a thick coat of fur all over its body, and only its head is its weakest point.

He leaped for life, and then his body fell lightning towards its head, and just as he swung his fist and was about to smash it into its head, he suddenly felt a tingling pain in his fist, and his body flew out like a short-line kite. The frightened wind who fell to the ground slowly got up, his face was slightly pale, and the battle aura on his body was like a piece of loose sand. When his eyes fell on the body of the fierce beast, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, although its body was huge, but its mind was flexible, and the blow it had just hit was blocked by it.

It was already slightly wounded on its shoulder, and even though it was so far away, he could still see the bloody wound on the beast's shoulder. The beast roared in pain, then swung its massive fist again, slamming it into the head of the Storm. Frightened Wind smiled slightly, slapped the ground with his palm, and slammed it into its head with all the strength of his body. When the beast saw this, it hurriedly withdrew its fist and struck at the frightening wind overhead. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. With a sneer, his figure flashed, and he quickly moved behind it, the speed of the fierce beast was not as fast as the frightening wind, and this matter was in a hurry. When it turned around, it realized that the frightened body had reached the top of its head. With a scream, the frightened body flew out again, spitting blood out of his mouth. This time he was seriously injured, and the battle qi in his body had been completely dispersed by the fierce beast's punch.

The huge body of the beast, like a mountain, fell to the ground with a 'boom', and its head was bloody and fleshy.

The faces of those mercenaries who were watching the battle not far away were shocked and happy, they never thought that they could kill such a powerful beast with the strength of one person. They quickly came to their senses and soothed the frightening wind, and the other mercenaries walked over and cut open the corpse of the dead beast, and in its body, a fiery red ball appeared, on which bursts of powerful battle qi continued to emit bursts of powerful battle energy.

"Do we want to move on?" asked the mercenary who ran over.

"Now let's rest here for a day! That beast has been killed by me, and there will be no powerful beast in the near future. In fact, this was not the real reason why he stayed, the real reason was that he had now clearly felt that the battle qi in his body was recovering, and it was very fast.

When I returned to the tent, I suddenly felt an unprecedented heat all over my body, and my blood was constantly circulating in my body like flowing water. He would never have thought that he would advance at this time. His eyes were slightly closed, and his divine consciousness was slowly swept into his heart, which had been completely occupied by the battle qi, and it looked like chaos. The blood didn't seem to stop, and it kept shuttling. The bones of the whole body not only made a 'snapping' sound, which was a sign that he was about to be promoted to the war spirit. He didn't dare to hesitate in the slightest, and hurriedly dredged the remaining battle qi in his body into his heart, and the battle qi in his heart began to slowly stabilize.

The veins of his whole body were covered with cracks like spider webs, and in the blink of an eye, his skin turned red, and his clothes were covered with bright red blood. The piercing pain penetrated deep into the bone marrow, but he was unwilling to give up, and he didn't dare to give up, because this was the most critical period, once he stopped the battle qi in his body, his cultivation might be the peak of the battle master for the rest of his life.

The piercing pain continued to stimulate his nerves, and the pain in his body was unbearable like ten thousand arrows piercing his heart, and his consciousness had become more and more blurred, and the tent cloth around him kept shaking.

The mercenaries outside had already heard the movement inside, and the battle qi continued to flow out of it, and they all looked intently at the tent where the fright was located, because they already felt that the fright was now advancing.

The sun slowly rose overhead, and the hot sun fell, and it was like standing in a furnace. It's unusually uncomfortable.

Suddenly, there was a loud bang, and a voice came out of the tent.

The mercenaries' mouths were wide open, staring intently at the frightening wind.

Now that he had successfully been promoted to the early stage of the War Spirit, he couldn't help but feel a wave of fear in his heart when he thought of the pain just now that was even worse than death. At this time, there were only a few pieces of broken cloth left in the placket of his clothes, and his whole body was covered with the dazzling light of dried blood.

The only feeling he has now is excitement, and now that the realm of his dreams has been achieved here, he now truly understands that there are often unexpected gains after pain. When I thought of this, I couldn't help but crack my chapped lips and reveal a smug smile. Then he threw his head up and poured a mouthful of water.

The people around him quickly surrounded him, and his eyes were a little incredulous, and the battle spirit powerhouse in front of him was the ruffian-like frightening wind just now. There was a look of envy in his eyes. Seeing that the frightening wind had the cultivation of the battle spirit, he suddenly had confidence in his heart, and couldn't help but ask, "Young Master Long, do we want to leave now!"

"Go, of course, while the sun is hot in the desert now, and there are no beasts. After saying that, he changed into a clean suit, and after he was promoted to the war spirit, the injuries on his body were almost healed. In a place like this, he didn't want to stay any longer.

Now is the hottest time, it is more difficult to walk, walking for half a day, and only walking a dozen miles. But the frightening wind could feel that it was almost at the end of the desert. Xiaobai, who has been following behind the frightening wind, seems to like it very much, always in front of everyone, disappearing from sight for a while, and reappearing again for a while. The corpse of the beast he killed had already been eaten by it, but strangely enough, he was not asleep. Those foods in the body can also be digested on their own without the help of the wind.

Those mercenaries saw Xiaobai's fierce gaze, and they didn't dare to get too close, far away.

When the sun was about to set, an oasis suddenly appeared in front of everyone, and in everyone's eyes, in addition to surprise, it was still a surprise.

With a frightening smile on his face, he was finally approaching his destination, and the elixir valley that he had spent so much effort to find was about to appear in front of him.

By the time we reached the end of the desert, night had come. Now even if you go in, you can't find anything, so you have to stop, not to mention where there are woods, fierce beasts like to catch prey at night. To enter is to die.

After the frightened wind ordered the tent to be set up, he walked into the mountain forest alone, surrounded by ancient vines, and it looked like a place that no one had ever visited. Although fierce beasts are infested at night, he is now a cultivator of the war spirit, and even if he encounters a powerful fierce beast, he can quickly escape.

When he walked to the front of a knife-like cliff, his brows furrowed tightly, since there was no way to go here, could it be that the Elixir Valley was here.

Suddenly, a biting cold wind blew, and the frightening wind couldn't help but shiver, and just as he was about to leave, a figure the size of a man appeared about twenty paces away from him. Stunned, except for himself and those mercenaries, there are no other people here, I have observed all the way, there is no trace of human activity at all, how can there be human beings here.

The figure moved slowly, and when it walked in, it was clear that it was not a human, but an ape-like beast, covered with thick hair, and all that could be seen was its eyes flashing with fierce light.

Before the frightening wind could react, he suddenly felt that the battle qi in his body was instantly dispersed. His heart was full of surprise, the fierce beast had not yet made a move, how could this be, unless its strength reached the Emperor of War, the Emperor of War?

Turning and jumping, he jumped onto the knife-like cliff behind him, and kept climbing upwards.

The beast roared wildly as it watched the frightening wind climb up the cliff behind it, and then stood below for a long time before leaving.

The frightened face was full of doubts, with its strength and speed, it was simply easy to climb such a cliff, how could it leave suddenly, could it be that there was something here that even its fear was. I can't care so much, and if I go first now, I'll be sent to death, so it's better to go up and try my luck.

When he was about to reach the peak, suddenly a swarthy hole appeared in front of him, hesitated for a long time, and then walked in cautiously, when he walked inside, he couldn't help frowning, there were obvious traces of polishing on the cave wall, and it was very likely that it was artificial. How could there be people here? I couldn't help but feel the curiosity in my heart, and walked in step by step.

The hole was very deep, and it didn't come to the end after walking for a long time, and the torch in his hand was about to be extinguished. Just as he lost confidence and was about to leave, a dead skeleton that had been weathered suddenly appeared in the light. The owner of this skeleton should be quiet when he dies, looking at the appearance of the bones, he was cultivating when he died, and there was no trauma on his body, obviously he died while cultivating.

Next to the skeleton sat a long sword that had rusted to the point of not being shapely. When the frightening wind couldn't help but reach over and pick it up, it was like it weighed a thousand pounds, and if it wasn't for the battle qi in his body that he mobilized, he would have picked it up at all. The owner of this sword must have been a strong man with fighting spirit before his death, and the person who can use such a heavy sword is definitely not a servant.

When the frightened eyes fell on a few iron boxes that were covered by dust, he couldn't help but reach out and take them, but he couldn't open them, five boxes, he tried five times, and none of them could be opened. On the top of the box, there are some strange patterns carved, which are lifelike. Packed in such a valuable box, it is definitely not an ordinary thing.

In front of the bones, a line of words was engraved: This thing is precious, please make good use of it. If you have a bad heart, you will die.

Shocking Wind smiled, he didn't think that he was prepared before he died, he always believed that someone would come and take these things after he died.

Shocking Wind glanced at the boxes in his hand, and then said to himself, "These boxes can't be opened by themselves now, and they can only be opened after returning to Wolf City." I'd love to see what kind of box it contains. ”

I packed the boxes, and picked up the heavy sword with difficulty, I don't know what it was made of, since it was so heavy. But what is certain now is that this is definitely a good sword like no other. I didn't have a handy weapon to earn by myself, but I didn't expect him to fulfill himself.

The next target is to find the Elixir Valley, but now he can't see his five fingers, and the torch in his hand is about to be extinguished, so he can only go back. I'll come back tomorrow.

When they returned, the mercenaries were still sleeping. It's been a sleepy day, and I've just fallen asleep.

When he got up the next day, it was already bright, he stretched, then walked out of the tent, glanced at the crowd, and saw no Xiaobai. I couldn't help but get a little anxious. It was still there last night, and it woke up on its own and was gone.

Just as he was about to look for it, he saw Xiaobai's figure not far away. I saw that it was tired and walked over. When I walked in, I saw that its body was covered with scars, and it seemed that it had also gone to the woods last night and fought fiercely with the fierce beasts in the woods.

When the frightening wind touched the palm of his hand on it, he clearly felt that there were three fierce beast inner pills in its body. It has been addicted to it since it devoured the first fierce beast's Inner Dan, and now he understands why he has been coquettish in front of him last night, and he originally wanted to eat the Divine Beast's Inner Dan on his body, but when he saw that the frightened wind was unwilling to give it to him, he went into the mountain by himself.

The strength on its body seemed to be getting stronger and stronger, and if compared to a cultivator, it already had the strength of the early stage of a battle master.

Shocking Wind couldn't help but show a surprise on his face, if it completely digested the three fierce beast inner pills in its body, it would not be far from the strength of the middle stage of the battle division, and it would be able to help him a lot at that time.

After making preparations, Storm led the mercenaries into the mountain.

Everyone walked in with their heads held high, their eyes full of fiery light, and in front of them, great wealth was waiting for them.

Along the way, I met a lot of ferocious beasts, the first to do it were the wind and Xiaobai, and now Xiaobai met the enemy when the abnormal beast, this is the surname of the beast, and the wind didn't care too much.

Many of those guards were wounded. The frightening wind had to tell them to go to the tent to rest first. When he first brought them here, he promised that he would bring them back alive.

Those who attacked them were ordinary beasts, but there were quite a few of them, and some of them were a little stronger, but they were all eliminated by the storm. So the road is still calm.

As he walked, a knife-like cliff suddenly appeared in front of him. Frightened Wind couldn't help but look at it, this is the place he went to last night, but he didn't see the powerful beast haunting.

You can't go here, you can only go the other way. It was a natural path, a stream, and it was not as difficult to walk as it was in the forest.

Spirit grass generally grows in places where the air is mild and humid, and if you go up this stream, you may be able to find it.

(They will live to find the legendary Elixir Valley, see the next chapter)
