Two hours later.

Suddenly a dark cloud floated, a light rain fell, and then a cold wind came, the clouds opened and the rain stopped, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse, and the fireflies all came out for a walk, enjoying the last happy time before the arrival of late autumn.

A figure scurried through the jungle, scattering the stray fireflies, and then expertly stopped in a corner of the wasteland, brushing away the knee-deep weeds, and his figure suddenly stopped.

"Damn, how did you get the first time by the demon beast. He looked at the Zhu Guo that only had a short rhizome left, and there were still traces of the demon beast's bite on it, and said to himself angrily, "It seems that we can only find one more, but fortunately there is still the moon tonight." ”

In another moment, his figure had disappeared again into the dense forest, and his deerskin boots flew over the thick trees, leaving no footprints on the ground.

............

"Senior Brother Zhou, the clue is broken," After a while, a sturdy figure emerged from the slightly damp bushes, it was the spear Zhuji who had fought with Park Tiexin before, "My red ghost wolfhound can't smell his breath anymore." ”

"Is it because of this rain?" Behind him, the two Zhuji and the five Qi Cultivators came one after another, but the breath of several Qi Cultivators was quite unstable, panting and panting, and the continuous tracking of Fang Cai had almost exhausted their spiritual power.

"No, he used a special medicinal powder," he squatted down and soothed the irascible red ghost wolfhound with one hand, while listening to its irregular breathing sound, it seemed to understand the beast language, "The wolfdog is very irritable, and this medicinal powder has a certain amount of damage to it." ”

"Then forget it," the red-faced Zhuji Cultivator, who was known as Senior Brother Zhou, turned his head to look at the few exhausted Qi cultivation disciples behind him, "After going around in a big circle, he actually came back here again, and he didn't know what it was." Let's take a break and do our own thing, the size of the ring-tailed black ant has reached its maximum today, and it's time to prepare everything in advance. ”

"Yes!"

............

"How is it, it's almost digested, right?" Jiang Feng stroked Jiang Chengzi's head, like coaxing a child, in fact, he was indeed a child, and next to him was the strange uncle Pu Tiexin, who had been staring at Jiang Chengzi strangely. released Jiang Chengzi, which really surprised him, anyway, there is still this kind of operation?

The problem is, this Jiang Chengzi can still turn into a bird, peck at the remnants of Zhu Guo's branches and leaves, and then change back again, this demon boy is still the first generation of shape-shifting demon beasts? Not only this matter, but he was also inexplicable about Jiang Feng's decision to travel dozens of miles overnight and then set up camp, the wasteland where Zhu Guo was found was not bad, he had already selected two waist-thick trees, with branches and branches, just to shelter, but he had to give up.

Jiang Feng had his own ideas.

The hundred-year-old Zhu Guo is one of the necessary materials for refining a variety of cultivation pills, although Han Li temporarily escaped, he might turn around and come back, if he kept the Zhu Guo plant, or finished picking the immature Zhu Guo by hand, it could only mean that the Zhu Guo had fallen into the hands of the monk, among them, the biggest suspicion was himself and Pu Tiexin. And let Jiang Chengzi turn into his original form and eat the whole Zhu Guo plant, you can cut off the suspicion of your own side, and you can also let Jiang Chengzi improve his cultivation, why not?

Staying near the wasteland, isn't it a melon field and plum under the plum, can't you say clearly?

Of course, the melons were indeed picked.

The moment Han Li lied to the two, Jiang Feng ruled out from his heart the possibility that this demon cultivator could continue to have a deep relationship. This is different from Pu Tiexin, being able to use thirty second-order purple fire copper crystals to make the other party willing to help hunt at least one hundred second-order thunder lizard eggs, which is not only a matter of transaction, but also a matter of righteousness.

A righteous person deserves deep friendship. This is also the reason why he directly gave half of the profit to the other party, although he had many opportunities to swallow this wealth alone.

Han Li's ability was quite good, ripening medicinal herbs and picking all things for his own use, this kind of talent was very important to his Xuan-level self, and even the sect behind him, and it was even worth bowing down to meet him. Han Li's fraud after being rescued may have been just self-preservation, but it had completely concealed his merits, which determined that he could only make deals with him in this life, and could not be absorbed into the sect as a friend or as a subordinate—although this was difficult—it was not impossible.

What is the Tao that he should adhere to? Or the principles that should be upheld for the development of the sect? Jiang Feng is still very confused for the time being, and it is difficult to say the rules and regulations, but whether he is in the box or outside the box, Jiang Feng's heart is still clear.

At least there should be a shining point, maybe he was a little picky, Jiang Feng laughed at himself in his heart.

Spirit-level threefold, with the absorption of Zhu Guo's medicinal power, Jiang Chengzi's realm finally stabilized.

"What, it's only been so much improved, I thought I could catch up with Master?" Jiang Chengzi pouted dissatisfiedly.

"......" was speechless not only Jiang Feng, but also Park Tiexin.

Jiang Feng stopped Pu Tiexin's plan to give his ripe Zhu Guo to Jiang Chengzi, children can't get used to it, you must know that there are so many free lunches in the world, always reaching out to ask for it, and sooner or later you will suffer a big loss.

For this reason, he had to carefully roast a herbivorous buffalo to celebrate, and the little guy's belly was bulging, and then he returned to Jiang Feng's arm with satisfaction. The "stinky black snake" moved its entrenched body dissatisfiedly, stared at the slightly larger spot of light for a long time, and finally didn't bother to care about it and regained its composure. Not long ago, it had completely awakened, reopened at full power, absorbing Jiang Feng's aura, and the originally loose cultivation was once again firmly stabilized at the critical point of the Xuan-level Triple.

At noon the next day, Jiang Feng and the others carefully bypassed the territory of the red-billed water gull and arrived at the destination of the trip, the edge of the thunder lizard's nest.

The Thunder Lizard lays eggs every five to ten years, one to two of which are indefinite, and as non-social monsters, male and female Thunder Lizards will guard their nests together until new life breaks out of their shells until the eggs are hatched. Therefore, what the two of them were facing might be two demon beasts close to the second order at most.

Jiang Feng originally wanted to use food to tempt the bristly skunk that was worthless in intelligence to come, the demon beast had a strong sense of territory, as long as the bristly skunk entered the territory of the thunder lizard, the two demon beasts would fight, and they would profit from it, and maybe they would easily get the thunder lizard's egg. However, the fact is that a lot of jerky is wasted, and the bristle skunk just doesn't leave its own territory.

The information this time is really accurate, Jiang Feng sighed in his heart, the bristle skunk is really useless, and it has no value to be deceived as an assist.

"Apart from this cave," said Park Tiexin, pointing to the dark entrance of the cave not far away, "there are no other major risks nearby. ”

Park Tiexin's words are trustworthy, all the way, with the help of his wild survival experience, the two have successfully avoided three waves of demon beasts and two waves of monks, one of which is still a human monk, in this disorderless jungle, killing people is commonplace.

Several large ring-tailed black ants crawled out of the bottomless holes, and unlike the winged black ants, these individuals were larger and had huge black pincers, and they could not fly into the sky, but roamed the mouth of the hole, and gradually spread to every corner of the vicinity.

These are the soldier ants, the guardians of the nest. It seems that the mating ceremony of ring-tailed black ants has come to an end, and it won't be long before the ant beast battle mentioned by Lin Qiaodie will appear.

It is said that almost half of the Rim Canyon is home to ring-tailed black ants, which are a key part of the canyon's ecology. Collect and use all kinds of plant resources produced in the jungle, disassemble and eat the corpses of demon beasts that have died for various reasons, and at the same time use them as low-level food for carnivorous monsters to hunt. The ant beast battle after the handover ceremony will attract many low-level monks to come to pick up treasures, explore, and consume. As a result, they have become an indispensable part of the economic resources of the Seven Leagues. Occasionally, during the cold winter months, when food is scarce, the Seven Alliances will even put cheap food in these holes to prevent the ant colony from withering due to lack of food.

"It's a pity they're not dragons. Pu Tie believed in the ridiculous introduction on the red booklet in the canyon, "This sentence is a bit interesting, otherwise they will be more valuable." ”

"It's also advice to advise adventurers not to go deep into the cave," Jiang Feng looked at the entrance of the cave that could enter six or seven people at the same time and analyzed, "Black ants are not like dragons, they don't like to collect treasures, in their eyes, everything is food, and they will use the splattered venom to digest them into a source of spiritual power, which is used to cultivate a special black umbrella spirit mushroom, this mushroom is highly poisonous, and it is useless to monks, but it is said that it can be used to fight poison with poison and relieve some side of the poison." ”

"I'd love to go in and have a look. When Park Tiexin heard the function of the black umbrella spirit mushroom, he was a little moved, "Deal with the thunder lizard first, and go." ”

The thunder lizard's nest is located in a natural cave, compared to the huge size of the mature thunder lizard, the entrance that more than a dozen people can pass through at the same time is not very wide, and it is far away from the cave entrance, and the smell of choking people comes to the nostrils. The Thunder Lizard is an omnivorous monster, but it does not eat the most common ring-tailed black ant here, so the two can be "good neighbors".

The two of them took the Five True Poison Removal Pill, which was used to get rid of the influence of the foul smell and miasma in the cave, and quietly dived into the cave, and the eerie and cold feeling quickly enveloped the two of them, until there was a violent wheezing sound inside.

The Thunder Lizard spotted the two. This is their home turf.

Jiang Feng skillfully crushed five first-order spirit stones and mixed them with special powder, just like the other members of the "Wuyi", but he made some improvements, adding some viscous gums, so that the glowing fragments could be more permanently attached to the dark stone wall, and in the empty cave, it was immediately like a moonlit night, although it was not as bright as outside, but it could already clearly distinguish the demon beast's every move.

It was the male Thunder Lizard that ran out to try to disperse the intruders. It has huge ochre-colored horns that females don't have, and it's the only thing of value on the Thunder Lizard - it can be used as a medicine to assist in the use of an elixir for the treatment of blood poison, and it is a substitute, not as good as the effect of the Savage Rhino Horn, because of this, the Thunder Lizard is not the most popular in this valley, and because of its ugly image - its thorny skin and thick hind legs are not endearing, and its temperament is irritable and untamable, and few people will keep it as a "pet".

Pu Tiexin rushed up directly with an arrow step, the nine-ring broadsword in his hand was blocked in front of him, in his own words, it was better to count on Jiang Feng's combat power than to expect himself to explode, although the words were very rough, but it was better to confess.

Since he was charging forward, Jiang Feng was happy to be an assist, and immediately gave him a second-order water shield talisman, and then threw out a second-order golden light talisman and went straight to the belly of the male beast, where the light-colored soft skin was its weakness.

Oh!

The male beast was in pain, compared to the damage caused by the flames inspired by the nine-ring broadsword, the pain in the abdomen made it squat suddenly, and the thick and barbed tail swept straight towards Jiang Feng, Jiang Feng quickly jumped back, with the help of the reverse impact of the stone wall, adjusted the direction, and dodged its sweeping tail, but a thick beam of lightning followed.

Crackling!

Jiang Feng's body stagnated, and he was successfully "touched" by the tail end of the lightning, at this moment, although the white jade flying needle could immediately stop this paralyzing effect, it must also be used to prevent the black snake spirit from losing control when he took the thunder lizard egg later, so he could only use a first-order awakening rune for himself, triggering the [Mirror Water Stop] of the spiritual light wrench, and carried it alive.

"Go get the eggs!"

Pu Tiexin took advantage of the male beast's mouth to open his mouth to release lightning, and threw out a cold iron dart, which went straight to the mouth of the thunder lizard, pierced its tongue, and suddenly the flesh and blood were blurred, and it was originally angered by Jiang Feng, turned its tail, and went straight to Park Tiexin, who was almost shrouded in flames.

Jiang Feng no longer hesitated, went straight to the beast's den, saw the blurred figure in the dark, closed his eyes and threw out a secret flashbang, this is still the "Blind" weapon made by the monkey Jin Dong in the tailings of Tianmu Mountain, but this special production formula, the monkey will not be sold in large quantities, and there is only one left.

Oh!

Another deafening roar, the sudden light in the darkness, angered the female thunder lizard who was hatching eggs, it twisted its neck that was not good at bending, and released a lightning bolt in the air, but it did not hit Jiang Feng.

Golden Light Talisman!

It was another second-order, followed by a fiery charm, Jiang Feng threw out three in a row like sprinkling beans! This is not the time to be stingy, taking advantage of the short gap when the female beast can't see her clearly, Jiang Feng successfully provoked it. It finally stood up from its lair and lunged in the direction where the rune had been thrown!

Bang!

The two water shield shields on Jiang Feng's body broke one after another, but taking advantage of the gap between the water shield resistance, he had already moved his body and avoided the impact of the female beast.

"Master, you've got it!" A burst of cheers came, it was Jiang Chengzi who had been quietly released when he entered the inner cave.

"Withdraw!" Jiang Feng threw out another fiery talisman to attract the attention of the female beast, the two of them flew over, withdrew from the cave, and returned to the outer room, Park Tiexin and the male beast were fighting happily, but in this moment's kung fu, he was already familiar with the other party's fighting style, and successfully gained the upper hand, the male beast's strong hind legs already had two shallow scars, and the mobility ability was only thirty percent left, but there were also many places on Park Tiexin's body that were swept by the tail of the male beast, and under the broken clothes, the iron armor full of dents was exposed.

Whew!

The female beast let out a different roar, obviously had found out that her egg was stolen, Jiang Chengzi according to Jiang Feng's established strategy, quickly passed the egg to Jiang Feng, spit out a bubble, the bubble flew to the inner cave, straight to the female beast that rushed out, the bubble wrapped the huge body of the female beast, slowly floated up, the female beast was startled, but it soon found that the bubble strength was too poor, spit out a lightning bolt, the floating bubble was crumbling, just need to hit it again or wait for a while, it will break.

Taking advantage of this short gap, Jiang Feng decisively used the White Jade Flying Needle to activate the [Intermediate Awakening], get rid of the trouble of the Black Snake Spirit's greed for himself, and quickly put the Thunder Lizard Egg into the spirit beast bag, beckoned to Pu Tiexin, and hurriedly shouted. The value of the thunder lizard itself is very low, the skin is thick and the blood is a lot, there is no need to kill, after the eggs are removed, many female beasts will lay eggs again, since the purpose has been achieved, there is no need to harm them.

Just when the three people and two beasts were fighting, outside the cave, the ring-tailed black ants flying all over the sky had begun to fall one after another, and in the entire jungle, more and more demon beasts were active, and the black ants after mating were weak and delicious, which was the main dish of the annual predatory feast. Originally, in the black hole outside the Thunder Lizard Cave, a large number of soldier ants had begun to pour out, intending to protect these "delicious" black ants from falling into the mouth of the demon beast.

For a while, the three people who rushed out of the beast's den looked at the black ants and ordinary demon beasts with full eyes, and they didn't know where to flee.
