Chapter 15: Quagmire in distress
Fortunately, Niu Daren has collected all the spirit grasses he has encountered in the past two years, otherwise such a serious injury, relying only on some ordinary herbs, I don't know how long it will take to recover, but even if it is the fairy mushroom spirit grass, it is impossible for him to give birth to fresh flesh and blood immediately, and it will take some time.
After the withdrawal of the Yuan Force, the wound will inevitably be painful, after all, the cultivator is also a mortal fetus in the flesh, how can he avoid the pain of pain, even if he survives the Ninety-Nine Heavenly Tribulation and achieves the immortal body, it is still the seven emotions, and the pain still exists, the only difference is that the immortal god can use the energy of heaven and earth to repair the body, while Niu Daren can only recover by recuperation.
Niu Daren wanted to return to Woniu Village immediately to recuperate, but now that the injury is so serious, activating the magic energy arm has consumed a lot of yuan power, and if he encounters a powerful demon beast on the way, it must be very dangerous.
Moreover, Mr. and Mrs. Mu treated him as if they were their own children, and the moon hairpin was even closer to him, if he brought his injuries home, it would inevitably make them worry and sad, for the sake of today, it is best to find a safe place first, and then talk about the return date.
It was a coincidence, before 100 meters, he met a stone cave, which could just be used to accommodate himself, found some artemisia grass, and covered up at the entrance of the cave, Niu Daren entered the stone cave and recuperated with peace of mind.
In the blink of an eye, a few days passed, and under the nourishment of the spirit grass, the injury on the thigh gradually improved, and it only took a few more days to recover and act as usual.
One day at noon, Niu Daren was sorting out his recent feelings, but he heard a squeaky sound from outside the cave, guessing that it was a group of rats foraging outside, so he decided not to pay attention to it and continued to write.
But the incessant sound of the sound made him feel distraught, so he picked up the artemisia grass and walked out of the cave to dispel them.
As soon as he got out of the cave, Niu Daren was taken aback, only to see that the outside of the cave was dense and pitch black, not to mention that there were hundreds of thousands of demon rats, but he didn't know why they gathered here.
"Snow Cloud Rat?"
In the middle of the rat group, a white squirrel, which looked a little dazzling, Niu Daren took a closer look, but it was the next immortal beast 'Snow Cloud Mouse'.
Snow cloud rat, the body size is like a squirrel, the whole body is snow-white, rarely variegated, two hind paws have long hair, like two floating clouds, the snow cloud rat is also named after it.
Although in terms of bloodline, the snow cloud rat has reached the level of immortal beasts, but it is not uncommon, and the body is weak, the attack and defense are extremely poor, only the speed is better than that of the same kind, and it is difficult to reach the extreme, although the snow cloud rat is numerous, but no strong one has come out.
Due to the poor qualifications of the Snow Cloud Rat, few people waste resources to cultivate it, but the cultivators see that it is cute, and it is not too lethal, so they use it as a plaything.
Look at this snow cloud rat again, although the body has been bitten and scratched by the demon rat in many places, and it is full of blood, but the whole body is snow-white, but the hind paws have not yet given birth to cloud-like long hair, the body is not dry, and the eyes are closed and difficult to open.
The snow cloud rat is already weak, and it is not long before it is born, and its eyes have not yet opened, not to mention that in the face of many demon rats, even if there is only one, it is powerless to fight back, and can only squeak and crawl everywhere, so as to avoid the attack of the demon rat.
The more the snow cloud rat struggled and screamed, the more excited the demon rat became, and from time to time it squeaked and screamed.
Seeing this, Niu Daren couldn't help but feel a resentment in his heart, how could the parents of the newborn cub be so ruthless to throw it into the wilderness and let others bully. If not, the parents must be guarding, how can it be besieged by a group of rats and made so embarrassed?
Niu Daren is also an orphan, although both parents have left him, but at least there is the love of the Mu family, not like this snow cloud rat, abandoned by his parents all his life.
Thinking of this, Niu Daren couldn't bear it anymore, and rushed forward violently, wanting to disperse the demon rat and save this poor little life.
When the leader of the demon rat saw that someone was coming to do a bad thing, he knew that this joy was going to end, and he suddenly had a killing opportunity in his heart, and he opened his mouth to bite the snow cloud rat to death.
Rats are naturally timid, and have always only deceived good and feared evil, but now they see that Niu Daren is strong, and the leader is dead or alive, with a squeaky scream in his mouth, he scattered and fled for his life.
Although the snow cloud rat has been rescued, it is dying, and its mouth is squeaking, obviously in pain.
After checking the injury, Niu Daren frowned, this flesh injury is not difficult to treat, how can the demon rat's teeth be poisonous, and now it has penetrated into the body of the snow cloud rat, if it can't be removed in time, I'm afraid it won't live for three days.
"Although you and I are meeting for the first time, but we are both fatherless and motherless people, today I have saved you, there is no reason for you to die again, the year before last passing by a quagmire, Tan Bian Sheng has a thousand-year-old blood mushroom, I wanted to let it grow for a few more years, and then add a few more effects, now it seems that only this thing can save your life. ”
Niu Daren is generous, the thousand-year-old blood mushroom is a very rare thing, although it does not have the effect of resurrecting the dead, but it has the function of prolonging life and removing blood poison. The 'Great Returning Pill' in the cultivation realm is refined with the thousand-year-old blood mushroom as the main medicine, and a large returning pill can increase the lifespan of a jiazi, and a thousand-year-old blood mushroom may have to be exchanged for more than a dozen large returning pills. Now in order to save a snow cloud rat that can only be used as a pet, Niu Daren is actually willing to sacrifice a thousand-year-old blood mushroom, which shows that the energy of mercy is also huge.
The snow cloud rat was already dying, and there was no room for delay, so Niu Daren could only give up recuperation, take the snow cloud rat, and run away in the direction of the quagmire.
At Niu Daren's current speed, even if he crossed the entire Shenliu Island, it would not take half a day, but Shenliu Island was controlled by the 'Four Spaces' formation, so it was not something that could be judged by sight.
It took a whole day for Niu Daren to arrive at the quagmire, stop and watch for a moment, and then walk straight towards a pile of rubble on the edge of the quagmire.
When he arrived at the pile of rocks, Niu Daren put the snow cloud rat aside to prevent damage to the blood mushroom during the move, so he slowly moved the stones away.
Just as he was lifting a stone, he felt a murderous aura coming from behind him, and before he had time to think about it, he lifted the stone and slammed it down behind him.
The next moment, Niu Daren only felt that his hand was empty, but the stone had already turned into pieces and fell to the ground, and then looked ahead, a monster covered in mud had already inhabited, and there were stone chips falling from his mouth.
Seeing this monster, Niu Daren hurriedly took out the divine iron and smashed it towards it, but the monster had a big mouth, revealing two rows of gloomy teeth, and bit the divine iron with one bite, and dragged Niu Daren to the quagmire. No matter how hard Niu Daren tried his best, it was difficult to shake half a point, but his body slowly moved towards the quagmire.
The blue iron is a relic left by Lin Ruoxi, how could Niu Daren let go easily, but the monster was very powerful, desperately trying to drag Niu Daren into the quagmire.
In a hurry, Niu Daren immediately used the energy formation, instantly turned into a magic energy arm, and his strength increased several times, and he threw it back violently, throwing the monster out of the quagmire, and then parting with force, and forcibly pried off two of the monster's teeth, which pulled the divine iron out of its mouth.
Although the monster's whole body was wrapped in mud, its image had been completely exposed, it turned out to be a giant crocodile, eight or nine meters long, with short but thick limbs, its belly close to the ground, its big mouth slightly open, its serrations looming, and two thick and long tails behind it, each swinging, but not interfering with each other.
After regaining the Divine Iron, Niu Daren immediately removed the magic energy arm, he didn't want to consume too much dead energy, and now his cultivation not only did not grow at all, but because of the previous killing of the turtle, he consumed a lot of dead qi and weakened it.
Those who cultivate the truth understand that when the energy of heaven and earth enters the body, in addition to strengthening the physical body, it must be converging in the dantian and constantly compressed, the gaseous state will build the foundation, the mist state will open the light, the solid state will be heartbeat, and the solid state will be fused again, then it will form a golden pill, the golden pill will have a spirit, and the dan will be broken and turned into a baby.
Therefore, before the Jindan period, it was all because of how much energy the dantian gathered in heaven and earth, and once it was consumed too much, it would inevitably lead to a decrease in cultivation, so all people who cultivated the truth rarely fought with people before the Jindan period.
It's just that the "Death Qi Transformation Technique" is different from other exercises, and it cannot absorb the death qi from heaven and earth, so Niu Daren has no choice but to fight the demon beasts, just to absorb the death qi in their bodies.
This matter is omitted, and the confrontation between Niu Daren and the demon crocodile is mentioned.
Niu Daren didn't want to have a conflict with the demon crocodile, because like the turtle, they were all oviparous animals, and it didn't help him absorb the death qi, but the demon crocodile used him as a ration for his cultivation and refused to give up.
Moreover, Niu Daren still has to go to get the thousand-year-old blood mushroom to prolong the life of the snow cloud rat, and now he can only fight with it to make it retreat.
Although the demon crocodile dropped two teeth, it was ecstatic, this strange bull demon in front of him, although it only had a gathering spirit, but it was a hundred times stronger than a beast, if it could be eaten, its cultivation would definitely improve a lot.
Both of them have made up their minds, and without hesitation, the demon crocodile's short legs swayed, and they rushed towards Niu Daren, who also waved the iron rod in his hand and smashed it towards the demon crocodile's head.
Although Lord Niu looks like a demon beast, it is human wisdom, the previous demon crocodile bit the divine iron, how could it be given another chance this time, so it seemed to rush straight over, but when it was close, it suddenly turned to the side and smashed it on the back with a stick.
How could the demon crocodile have thought that Niu Daren would make such a trick, and when it found out, it was already unable to turn.
Just as Lord Niu raised the Divine Iron and was about to give it a heavy blow, he saw two crocodile tails raised high, just like the two fingers of ordinary people, holding the Divine Iron in the air, and it was difficult for him to do his best.
Just wanted to fly up and kick the giant crocodile's long tail, forcing it to withdraw its strength, and intuition A huge force came from the divine iron, and then the whole person rose into the air, and then was smashed to the ground again, and before he could get up, his body had already left the ground, and then slammed on the ground.
It turned out that the giant crocodile used its twin tails to clamp the divine iron and turn Niu Daren around, and it was also Niu Daren who was afraid of losing the divine iron, which gave the giant crocodile a chance.
was smashed more than a dozen times in a row, Niu Daren only felt dizzy, and hurriedly loosened the divine iron, which was considered to have broken this method, but before he could stand firmly, the giant crocodile's twin tails were like a huge pair of scissors, slashing towards his body.
