"I heard that Shi Xiu's family had an accident, although I don't know what it was, but after the accident at his family, people have changed a lot. I think that when I reached the ninth level of Qi training with him, and participated in the team hunting for the first time together, he was optimistic and cheerful at that time, and he was also helpful, and he has been silent since the accident at home, and his cultivation has reached the foundation building period but he still insists on being a spirit planter. I remember he had missed two winter hunts. As for this year, Chu Xiaoxiao continued to shake her head.

After listening to Chu Xiaoxiao's words, Murong Feng understood why Chu Xiaoxiao was so familiar with Shi Xiu, and why Shi Xiu was so silent. It's just that why Shi Xiu suddenly participated in this winter hunt, Chu Xiaoxiao didn't say, and Murong Feng didn't ask.

The group began to make the final preparations before hunting, compared to others, Murong Feng prepared fewer things, a total of 18 small array flags, ten bottles of spiritual water that can quickly restore the spiritual power in the body, ten bottles of the Great Returning Pill that can quickly restore physical endurance after injury, and two arrays of dense forest starry arrays that are cultivated for talent during the foundation building period, the so-called array plates are formations arranged by other array masters. It can be used immediately, and the advantage is that it can allow low-cultivation array masters to use high-cultivation formations. The disadvantage is that a formation disk can only be used once, and the price is slightly expensive. These two array plates, plus the small banner of the array and the twenty bottles of pills, cost Murong Feng a total of three second-grade spirit stones. So that he has almost no property left except for the spirit stones in the treasure bag.

When everyone was ready, they exchanged their tickets with the people of the hunting ground and began to enter the hunting ground. The so-called hunting grounds are nothing more than vast forests outside residential areas. Various prohibitions have been planted on the edge of the dense forest, so that the monsters in the dense forest cannot cross the border at will and harm the nearby residents. Every winter hunting day, the local person in charge will open up a few gaps when the ban was set up and re-close it at the end of the winter hunting day.

Not long after the group entered the dense forest, they found a forest wolf pack wandering and foraging. There were about forty forest wolves in this wolf pack, and after seeing Murong Feng and his group, the wolves also slowly stopped and looked at Murong Feng and his group vigilantly.

Spirit beasts are divided into twelve grades in Dayuan, and each two grades correspond to a cultivator's cultivation level. The timber wolf is a second-grade spirit beast, which is equivalent to the eighth to twelfth layers of Qi cultivation for cultivators. It's not very powerful, but the timberwolves like to live in groups, and there are hundreds of large timberwolves, and even small timberwolves have more than twenty, and the habit of timberwolves is to use howls to ask for help from their companions. If they can't wipe out the forest wolves in front of them in a short period of time, they will use their howls to summon other wolves around the forest, and finally consume the cultivators alive.

Shi Xiu, who saw the wolves, didn't say a word, and directly used a "King Kong blessing" to the wolves. The so-called Vajra blessing actually belongs to the spell of Zen Buddhism, but because when using the Vajra blessing, the body will produce a stream of golden light around the whole body, making it easier for the spirit beast to pay attention to itself and make itself the first target. It has the effect of gathering monsters. Therefore, it is loved by the majority of Taoist wrestlers. The golden light surrounding Shi Xiu's whole body really attracted the attention of the forest wolves, and soon the wolves roared and trapped Shi Xiu in the middle. Murong Feng hurriedly released a "Wooden Armor Technique" towards Shi Xiu, and at the same time began to cast the "Trapped Immortal Array". Zhang Beiyan on the side quickly sealed and performed the "Group Ice Armor Technique", and soon there was water vapor around the five people that slowly condensed into an ice armor. In addition to increasing the defenders of cultivators, this ice armor can also frostbite enemies and slow down the normal attack speed of surrounding spirit beasts.

Li Huanguang, who was on the side, waited for Shi Xiu to gather the wolves together, and immediately urged the spell, and he first put a fire shield on Shi Xiu. This fire shield does not increase the cultivator's physical defense, but it can scorch the attackers around it. After applying the fire shield, Li Huanguang raised his hands and fell forward. Soon, a huge blast of flame shot out of his hands and rushed towards the wolves who were trapped by the "Trapped Immortal Array" and couldn't move. Wherever the shockwave passed, countless timberwolves were scorched. This is the strongest group attack technique of the mage in the foundation building period - "Fire Phoenix Burning Plain".

Seeing that his wolf pack had suffered huge losses, the first wolf began to howl in the sky, and soon the two wolves behind him also ran backwards, and like the first wolf, these two wolves also kept howling while running.

"Oh no, they're calling for their companions. Zhang Beiyan said as he sealed the seal and cast the "True Yuan into the Body", and soon the True Yuan Aura between heaven and earth entered everyone's body and began to slowly heal everyone.

At this time, Chu Xiaoxiao first threw out the golden net that trapped the female ghost in the haunted house and trapped the two wolves who wanted to escape, and at the same time, a whistle blew, and a wild boar with huge fangs ran out of nowhere. The wild boar crashed straight into the wolf king, the violent impact made the wolf king a little dizzy, and temporarily stopped howling, Chu Xiaoxiao took out a crossbow arrow in each hand, and shot at the wolf king. Each shot arrow has an electrical attribute attached to it. The wolf king was suddenly paralyzed by the electricity and couldn't move, so he had to be like a target, and he would be shot into a hedgehog after a while. This move is the "Thunderball" of the Spirit Summoner.

After solving the wolf king, Chu Xiaoxiao walked in front of the forest wolf who was trapped by the bundle immortal net, the two wolves had been sucked out of strength by the bundle immortal net, and Chu Xiaoxiao stepped forward and killed them with a wolf and an arrow.

"I didn't expect our first time working together, but it was quite tacit. Li Huanguang said while cleaning up the battlefield.

"It's a pity that your Fire Phoenix Liaoyuan is too powerful, and many wolf skins have been scorched and can't be sold for money. Chu Xiaoxiao on the side said with some disappointment. In the battle with the Timber Wolves, the five-person team got a total of 42 second-grade demon pills. 30 pieces of wolf skins, as well as a small amount of wolf meat used as dry food, were well received.

After cleaning up the battlefield, the five of them continued to move forward, and saw a Flame Porcupine, which was a third-grade spirit beast, equivalent to the initial and intermediate level of foundation building among cultivators. Although the spirit of the three-rank spirit beast is not high, it can already use some basic spells, this flame porcupine gets its name from the barbs it shoots from its body when attacking enemies, and these barbs will be attached to the fire attribute, and shooting at the enemy will produce an explosion, splashing at others.

Shi Xiu first used the "Vajra Blessing" to attract the attention of the porcupine, and then used the "quicksand technique" and the "earth wall technique". After trapping the porcupine with quicksand, the earthen wall technique resists the porcupine's attack. Although the earthen wall blocked most of the barbs, there were still a small number of people shooting at Shi Xiu's back, but fortunately, Murong Feng cast the "Two Yi Four Elephant Array" in time, and most of the barbs shot at him were skewed. But the Liangyi Four Elephant Array can only be useful to itself, and Zhang Beiyan and others still suffered a lot of losses. It was also thanks to Zhang Beiyan who used "Heavenly Rain" in time to protect everyone's blood. And Chu Xiaoxiao and Li Huanguang also used their own single exercises in time to kill this somewhat tricky flaming porcupine. In the battle with the porcupine, everyone only got a three-grade demon pill, I have to say that this porcupine is difficult to fight and can't get good materials, the meat on the body is fishy and smelly, and the skin is full of barbs that are not easy to deal with, and it is one of the spirit beasts that everyone avoids during winter hunting.

Just as everyone had cleaned up the battlefield and regained their spiritual power, they suddenly heard the howl of a beast not far away. Shi Xiu and Chu Xiaoxiao, who heard the howl, stood up at the same time, Shi Xiu's expression was a little excited, while Chu Xiaoxiao's face was full of hatred. The two said in unison: "I really didn't expect to meet it!"
