Chapter Twenty-Four: Earth Element Spirit Milk
It's over.
When Zhou Minghan's trick that took half an hour to prepare was unleashed, the result was already doomed.
About a quarter of an hour after that roar came, Zhou Yang and the other Zhou family monks saw the corpse of the third-order [Poisonous Fire Scorpion King] that had been brought back by the old patriarch Zhou Minghan.
This dark red giant scorpion, which was originally the size of a calf, was now torn apart and turned into dozens of pieces of minced meat, and only two of the hardest scorpion claws and a scorpion tail were barely intact in its body.
"The scorpion shell defense of the third-order [Poisonous Fire Scorpion King] is stronger than the ordinary third-order low-grade defense magic weapon, what kind of powerful divine power did the old patriarch use, and even such a hard scorpion shell was shattered into so many pieces!"
Zhou Yang looked at the corpse of the third-order demon beast thrown by the old patriarch Zhou Minghan, and was shocked and felt pity again.
As a refiner, there is probably nothing more distressing than seeing good refining materials destroyed in front of your eyes.
With the size of the [Poisonous Fire Scorpion King], if the scorpion shell on his body was intact, with the alchemy skills of the old patriarch Zhou Minghan, there was at least a half-chance of being able to refine a set of third-order low-grade defensive battle armor.
Note that it's a set, not a piece!
A set of third-order low-grade defensive armor, including breastplate, helmet, arm armor, leg armor and other parts of the defensive magic weapon, these defensive magic weapons can reach the third order of the lower grade of the defensive effect of a single piece, if a complete set is worn together, the defensive effect is better than a third-order high-grade defensive magic weapon.
A monk in the early stage of foundation building wears such a set of defensive armor and can cross a small realm to fight against a monk in the middle stage of foundation building.
Compared with such a real set of magic weapons, Zhou Yang's set of four "armor-piercing daggers" is simply a child's plaything, and it is not a level of stuff at all.
In fact, how could the old patriarch Zhou Minghan not feel distressed in his heart, but in order to get rid of the [Poisonous Fire Scorpion King] without fail, he had no choice at all.
Not to mention how depressed the two refiners were in the hearts of Zhou Yang and the old patriarch Zhou Minghan, the rest of the Zhou family all smiled with relief after seeing the corpse of the third-order demon beast [Poisonous Fire Scorpion King].
With the death of the [Poisonous Fire Scorpion King], a third-order demon beast, their Zhou family's action to expand the Red Flame Iron Ore Vein has come to a perfect end, and the next thing is the time to harvest.
In this battle, they killed one third-order demon beast, dozens of second-order demon beasts, and hundreds of first-order demon beasts, and the results were not unsubstantial.
For immortal cultivators, the whole body of demon beasts is a treasure, basically except for a few demon beasts whose flesh and blood contain highly poisonous, the meat on most of the demon beasts is edible, and the eating effect is much better than [Golden Bead Rice].
The blood of demon beasts is the main material used by talismans to make blood ink, and the fur can be used to refine weapons and be made into blank rune paper.
Even the feces of demon beasts can be used to fatten some spirit trees and elixirs!
Because of the number of demon beasts killed in this battle, most of the storage bags on the Zhou family's monks were filled and could not be filled, so they had to be collected and stacked in a centralized manner, and then slowly let people transport them back to the family in the future.
After cleaning up the battlefield, everyone gathered together again, and everyone looked at the old patriarch Zhou Minghan with excitement on their faces.
Of course, Zhou Minghan understood what these people were thinking, although the corpses of hundreds of demon beasts were a huge harvest, it also depended on what they were compared to.
If it was compared to a third-order natural spirit vein and a red flame iron ore vein, this harvest was really nothing.
"Let's go, I'll go to the spirit vein first. ”
He bowed his head slightly, and took the lead in sacrificing his flying sword and flew towards the nest of the poisonous fire scorpion group.
There are also some poisonous fire scorpions left in the nest of the poisonous fire scorpion group, and these poisonous fire scorpions left behind are basically female scorpions waiting to be produced, as well as a few guard male scorpions, and they don't know what is going on in the outside world.
Zhou Minghan saw this situation after breaking into the scorpion nest from the outside world, and with a flying sword, he launched a slaughter mercilessly.
When Zhou Yang and the others arrived later, what they saw was the corpse of a headless poisonous fire scorpion in a place.
Without looking at the corpses of the poisonous fire scorpions that he was tired of looking at for even a second, Zhou Yang, like the other Zhou family monks, directly used the "Heavenly Eye Technique" to observe this huge underground cave, and carefully felt the abundant aura in the cave.
"It's a pure heaven and earth aura! It's just the aura on the periphery of the cave, and the purity of the aura is not inferior to the mountainside of Yuquan Peak, it is worthy of being a third-order low-grade natural spiritual vein, even if the level is even lower, the aura is no worse than the artificially cultivated third-order middle-grade spiritual vein!"
Zhou Yang was observing the environment in the cave when he heard the excited exclamation of the fourteenth uncle Zhou Xuanhe next to him.
When he heard this, he couldn't help but silently run the exercise and absorb a wisp of spiritual energy into his body for refining, and then his face also showed a look of shock.
"How is it? Feel it, not only is the aura rich here, but the aura attribute is more inclined to the two attributes of fire and earth, you and a monk like your father who has a fire attribute in the spiritual root exercise are cultivating here, and the effect is better than on the Yuquan Peak, where the five elements tend to be balanced!"
Zhou Xuanhao was by Zhou Yang's side, so he naturally saw his small movements in his eyes, and after seeing the look on his face, he couldn't help but smile slightly and explained his doubts for him.
The monk's spiritual root has an attribute bias, and the spiritual vein naturally has it, and the natural spiritual vein, depending on the environment in which it is located, there will be some bias in the attribute.
For example, in the sea with rich water vapor or on the edge of large rivers and lakes, the aura on the spiritual veins will be biased towards the water attribute, which is more suitable for immortal cultivators who practice water system exercises.
In the spiritual veins of the hot land of the volcano, the aura attribute will be biased towards the fire attribute, which is suitable for the cultivation of immortal cultivators of the fire system.
The natural spiritual veins in the boundless sand sea, the aura attributes are mostly fire, earth, and metal, and there are very few natural spiritual veins that are biased towards water attributes and wood attributes.
Generally speaking, after the immortal cultivator occupies the spiritual vein, unless it is the kind of casual cultivation where the disciples of the sect all practice the same attribute exercises, for the sake of the cultivation of the younger generations, they will use the spirit gathering formation and spirit stones to transform the spiritual vein, so that the spiritual energy attribute of the spiritual vein tends to the state of equilibrium of the five elements.
The Yuquan Peak occupied by the Zhou family was also a second-order high-grade natural spiritual vein at the beginning, and the aura attribute was biased towards the earth and wood attributes, but later under the transformation of the Zhou family with a large number of spirit stones, it slowly became a third-order middle-grade spiritual vein with a balance of five elements.
Zhou Yang thought of these spiritual vein knowledge records he had read, and his expression suddenly moved, but he remembered another thing related to the natural spiritual vein.
He swept his eyes around, and asked with a curious look: "Father, I read from the classics that some special heaven and earth spiritual objects will grow on the natural spirit veins, such as the [Dragon Scale Tree] in our Yuquan Peak, I wonder if there will be one here?"
Well, that's not a good question for a father to answer. ”
A look of embarrassment flashed on Zhou Xuanhao's face, but he couldn't answer Zhou Yang's question, and then in order to avoid Zhou Yang from asking such a difficult question again, he simply flicked his sleeves and said, "Let's go, isn't the old patriarch already in, let's go in and see." ”
This underground cave is quite deep, and the nest of the poisonous fire scorpion swarm is mainly placed in the spacious cave hall on the periphery of the cave, and there are many underground passages on the cave walls around the cave hall.
Those underground passages are naturally formed, but most of them are dead ends excavated by poisonous fire scorpion swarms.
There are two relatively spacious passages, one is naturally formed, even if he does not enter this passage, Zhou Yang can feel the cold water vapor emitted from the depths of the passage, needless to say, this passage must lead to the underground dark river.
The other passage, which is also two or three meters wide, can accommodate several people in parallel, but this passage is carved out of the stone wall by a powerful external force, and the rich aura in the cave is overflowing from this passage, and it is the spiritual eye of the spiritual vein that is inside.
It was this passage that Zhou Yang and Zhou Xuanhao entered.
After their father and son went hundreds of meters along the passage, a stone room that could accommodate dozens of people to sit and practice appeared in front of them, and the old patriarch Zhou Minghan and several old people of the Zhou family's "light" character were also looking around in the stone room at this time.
"Old patriarch, but what treasures have you found?"
Zhou Xuanhao stepped forward with Zhou Yang, and asked casually while stretching his neck to look at the things surrounded by the old patriarch Zhou Minghan and others.
Zhou Yang stretched his neck and looked at it, only to see that the thing surrounded by the old patriarch and others in the center was a milky yellow stalactite pillar about three feet high protruding from the ground.
"Hey, this is, is this ......?"
Suddenly, Zhou Xuanhao's eyes widened, and his eyes were full of surprise and surprise as he looked at the stalactite pillar and looked at the old patriarch Zhou Minghan, for fear that he had seen it wrong.
"That's right, this is an extremely rare third-order spiritual creature [Earth Yuan Spirit Milk]!"
The old patriarch nodded slightly, and said the name Zhou Xuanhao wanted to say in a low tone.
Hiss –
Zhou Xuanhao couldn't help but gasp, and his body trembled slightly.
Zhou Yang was also shocked when he saw his father like this, since he was a child, this was the first time he had seen his father lose his temper like this.
"Father, what is the [Earth Yuan Spirit Milk]?"
He asked as he looked at the milky stalactite pillar in surprise, his eyes full of doubt.
"[Earth Yuan Spirit Milk] is an extremely rare third-order spiritual object, it is a kind of heaven and earth spiritual object that the earth's leyline aura has been conceived by the 10,000-year-old stone stalactite, this thing can not only be used as a substitute for a variety of third-order spirit pills, but also an important auxiliary elixir for refining many fourth-order and even fifth-order spirit pills, do you know Zhuji Dan?
Knowing that Zhou Yang was relatively young, and he spent most of his time on cultivation on weekdays, and he might not be clear about the information of some rare spiritual objects in the cultivation world, Zhou Xuanhao hurriedly explained to him the usefulness of the [Earth Yuan Spirit Milk].
After speaking, he patted the storage bag on his waist, took out a jade slip used by immortal cultivators to record important knowledge, and handed it to Zhou Yangdao: "This "Record of Treasures of Heaven and Earth" records more than 3,000 kinds of rare treasures of heaven and earth, from the first order to the seventh order, Yang'er, you have time to take a look, don't enter Baoshan in the future but return empty-handed, that will become a joke." ”
When he was doing these things, the old patriarch Zhou Minghan looked at him meaningfully and said, "Regarding the effect of the [Earth Yuan Spirit Milk], Xuan Hao, you also missed the same thing!"
In an instant, Zhou Xuanhao's face changed.
