At the same moment when Qi Qi was subdued, somewhere Chu Xiaoyang couldn't see, a group of monks were in a bitter battle.

"The beast tide is here again, brothers, form a formation!"

"Hold on, brothers, there are hundreds of students from the Beidou Academy behind us, they are all the hope for the future of the human race, and there are so many elders who are fighting to the point of serious injury to protect everyone, we must not let this wave of beasts attack us!"

"The righteous path lasts forever, and I would rather die than retreat!"

"I'd rather die than retreat!"

"Huh?"

A group of monks from Putian Temple were in charge of resisting the beast tide somewhere, and the formation had just been formed, but the group of demon beasts in front of them suddenly retreated like a tide.

"Look at the sky, the white-horned rhinoceros is starting to retreat!"

"The golden-veined cheetah herd has also begun to retreat!"

"And the crazy brute elephants, they're starting to turn back!"

"Hey, strange, why did the beast tide over here suddenly recede?"

"We ...... Are you saved?"

......

In the western part of the Misty Forest, near the intersection of a hill and a plateau, several monks who were searching for Qiqi's whereabouts suddenly looked up at the horizon.

"Senior brothers, you see that the night crows in the sky have suddenly dispersed!"

"The vultures are gone!"

"Wow, it's true, is the demon that controls them dead?"

A monk covered in scars suddenly raised his head and shouted loudly,

"It must have been killed by Qiqi, so these demons will not be affected by it and return to their respective territories!"

"Great, it's finally over!"

"It's safe!"

......

In the eastern part of the Misty Forest, in a towering and endless mountain range, several women in white clothes and plain skirts were searching in the jungle, and the middle-aged woman in the lead suddenly stopped, put away the long sword, and then opened the sound transmission jade slip in her hand.

After a while, she paused and frowned.

I don't know which sect is so uncomposed, if Qi Qi dies too early, there is no reason to continue to send people to the Misty Forest.

"All the leaders of the Ethereal Immortal Palace listen to the order, the demon Qiqi is suspected of being killed, and the beast tide is rapidly retreating, and now everyone is ordered to immediately stop the search and arrest operation, go to the middle of the misty forest, and wait for the strange treasure to be born!"

After listening to the other information above the sound transmission jade jian, she continued to speak and ordered:

"Evacuate, quick, everyone, go to the middle of the city immediately!"

......

In the middle of the Misty Forest, in a group of large underground caves.

"Nangong Yao, your cultivation is the highest among the students, the guarding work at the entrance of this cave will be handed over to you for the time being, and several of our teachers need to go out due to special circumstances. ”

Li Xianglan called Nangong Yao in front of her, and then pointed to several other teachers who were seriously injured and were recuperating here.

"A few of them will be out of your care. ”

"Yes. ”

Nangong Yao nodded, and at the same time, the tangyuan on her body climbed diagonally to her shoulder, her two paws clenched the fruit in her hand, and jumped from her left shoulder to her right shoulder, staring at Li Xianglan in front of her with a wary expression.

"Tangyuan, don't make trouble, no one here will rob you of snacks to eat. ”

"Woohoo......"

"Hey, this spirit beast is so cute, and it's really rare, I didn't expect you to be so lucky, and you actually accepted a fire fox cub as a spirit pet. ”

"Hee-hee, it's just luck. ”

As soon as she thought of the origin of the rice balls, Nangong Yao immediately unconsciously appeared in her mind.

"Alright, it's time for us to go. ”

Li Xianglan glanced at the rice balls on Nangong Yao's shoulders and continued to advise,

"The beast tide has receded for the time being, but the situation outside is still full of danger, and a few of our teachers went out to investigate the situation, it may be a few days, or it may be a few weeks...... You remember that you must not leave the cave without help coming. ”

"I see. ”

Nangong Yao looked at the serious expressions on the faces of several teachers and nodded solemnly.

......

Not only the Ethereal Immortal Palace but also the Beidou Academy made a move, after the vision of the Seven Stars Gathering Peak appeared, the Haoran Sect in the south, the Canglei Sect in the northeast, the Mirror Moon Hall near the southwest wetland, and other sect forces all approached the middle of the misty forest, and they all came towards the strange treasure that was about to be born.

Three days later, somewhere in the middle of the misty forest, Chu Xiaoyang was taking a small milk cat with him, and while taking care of the cubs, he was busy collecting skill points.

"Bell!"

The silver light flickered, and the wind blade attached to the tip of the sword instantly knocked down the Raven King in the air.

[Skip the level kill, gain 2 skill points]

"Meow!"

The next moment, a trace of yellow light flashed in Chu Xiaoyang's ring, and a little orange cat the size of a rugby ball with a pinch of yellow fur jumped out of his hand, and then pounced straight towards the falling corpse of the Raven King.

At this moment, Chu Xiaoyang no longer used the Heaven Devouring Skill Devouring Skill.

First, after mastering the skill of the five elements, he no longer needs too many skills, and what he lacks now is just skill points.

Second, through the previous week's training, he had confirmed that after his cultivation was improved, the skill points he could obtain would only become less and less, so he began to deliberately suppress his cultivation, so that he could continue to stay in the Spirit Enlightenment Realm and brush up on his skill points for a while.

Of course, even if he didn't take the initiative to devour the demon beast meat with the Heaven Devouring Skill, as time went by, Chu Xiaoyang's cultivation would still slowly climb upward, but due to his talent, his improvement speed was slower.

In the end, it just so happened that the dumplings were particularly edible now, and the corpses of those high-level demon beasts could simply be disposed of by the dumplings.

"Huh!"

"Whew!"

"Bang!"

The next moment, the dumpling was holding the body of the Crow King, which was several times larger than his own size, and jumped around on the branches vigorously, falling from the tree more than ten meters high in a few clicks, and then stood in front of Chu Xiaoyang, looking at him with blank eyes.

The dumplings have grown very rapidly in three days, and now they can already help Chu Xiaoyang.

"What's wrong, you don't like to eat?"

Chu Xiaoyang was a little puzzled, hasn't dumplings always been picky, and the higher the cultivation level of the demon beast, the more it likes it, can it be ......

"Meow~Woo~~~"

The dumplings began to rub back and forth on Chu Xiaoyang's legs, and little stars kept popping up in his eyes.

"Stop...... Stop, stop, don't drool! I see, but can you stop meowing, I think you should be a little fierce?"

Chu Xiaoyang remembered that it was said in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" that Qi Qi is a big demon who punishes good and promotes evil, one of the four evils, but the dumpling wings in front of him have not yet begun to develop, how do you look like an orange cat...... I really can't connect with the terrifying demon with the tiger's body and eagle wings in the legend.

It's only been three days together, so you won't be led astray by yourself, right?

"Meow meow?"

The dumplings began to meow again.

"Okay. ”

Chu Xiaoyang smiled helplessly, it seems that he has opened his life too well in the past two days, and he has spoiled his mouth.

The little guy is waiting for himself to cook himself.

"It just so happens that I'm hungry too, so you can help me find some dry firewood and come back, and let's arrange lunch." ”

Chu Xiaoyang pointed to the dry firewood on the ground not far away.

"Meow~!"

Dumplings immediately understood, and immediately ran towards the depths of the jungle in high spirits.

In three days, under Chu Xiaoyang's careful feeding, coupled with the perverted accelerated growth skill of the dumpling itself, its strength has now reached the third layer of enlightenment, and the first skill to awaken is agility - when you barbecue like this, the task of collecting firewood can be handed over to the dumpling with confidence.

The agility of the second order, even if it encounters any danger, is enough for Dumpling to have the power to protect himself in the misty forest.

The next moment, Chu Xiaoyang plucked and washed the five-pound crow king according to the normal process, and after removing the skin, he used a knife to cut several openings on its body to facilitate the taste.

He then pickled the whole Raven King with spices like black pepper, starch, and salt.

After about half an hour, the dumplings brought back enough dry firewood, and Chu Xiaoyang carefully controlled the aura and used a mini version of the fire exorcism technique to raise the fire.

Finally, when the bonfire was raised, he began to spread the honey water evenly over the entire Raven King's body.

At this point, the preparations for the Roasted Raven King of Orleans are complete.

"Meow meow~!"

The dumplings on one side seemed to be hungry, and they began to rub impatiently in place, but they didn't dare to disturb Chu Xiaoyang, who was concentrating on controlling the heat.

Nearly an hour later, after the entire Orleans Roast Crow King was completed, Chu Xiaoyang first tore a piece of crow leg and threw it to the dumplings, and then he also cut a piece of calf meat and tasted it.

[Repair +1]

"Shhh...... Charted on the outside and tender on the inside, the meat is delicious!"

Chu Xiaoyang gave a pertinent evaluation of his cooking skills.

Eh, it's a pity that I have to suppress the level to brush up on skill points, and if you want to add cultivation to this barbecue, you don't dare to eat too much.

"Meow~!"

The dumplings were dragging a thigh on the side at the moment, and from time to time they let out a meow of ecstasy, which made Chu Xiaoyang drool.

"Phew, that's cheap for you little bastard. ”

Chu Xiaoyang smiled and spat a word, threw over the calf that he hadn't eaten, and then took the dry food from his bag again and ate it.

At the same time, near the mountain wall dozens of meters away from Chu Xiaoyang, a woman in white with a long sword on her back suddenly appeared in her field of vision.
