Chapter Forty-Eight: The Night Walk of the Beasts
In the Fantasy Realm of the Undead, in addition to the fact that there are many dangerous places in the illusion and some strange treasures left by the Demon Venerable of Hundred Losses before his death, there is also a reason why all the good and evil of the Xianmen come here, that is, there are still demon beasts here.
In addition to being the place where good and evil are at the intersection of the immortal gate, the undead fantasy realm also borders the realm of the demon clan. Although it is only a small part, it is another important reason that attracts all kinds of good and evil to come here for trials.
In the illusion, in addition to hunting demon beasts from time to time, there will be a demon beast tide at an irregular time every year. There will be hordes of demon beasts that will suddenly invade the undead illusion from the territory of the demon clan. And for this beast tide, everyone in the fairy gate calls it a hundred beasts walking at night.
In the blink of an eye, since Yan Li'er left with his father Yan Fulai, Qin Zhan stayed in the illusion for more than three months.
In the Realm of the Dead, in a mountain col, the night is dark and the wind is high.
Qin Zhan lay in the grass, waiting quietly, this was the fifteenth time he had waited here this month. A month ago, he found a spirit beast in the illusion.
Although Qin Zhan didn't know much about demon beasts, a month ago, he was completely sure that he had seen a golden flame monkey with his own eyes.
The Golden Flame Monkey is a rumored spirit beast in the Kexian Gate, a kind of spirit monkey with golden eyes and a golden flame on its tail. Legend has it that this kind of spirit monkey grows to the end, and it is a spirit beast of the same level as the most famous heavenly dragon and phoenix between heaven and earth. As for what Qin Zhan saw in this illusion, it was still a young monkey.
But Rao is a young monkey but also an elf, Qin Zhan saw the young monkey at the beginning, but because he accidentally emitted a little murderous aura, the young monkey noticed it, and because of this, he hid in another valley cave in the illusion.
Because the entrance of the cave was only the size of a baby, Qin Zhan had to stay in front of the cave entrance all the time, waiting for the opportunity to catch the golden flame monkey.
For the Golden Flame Monkey, there are two reasons why Qin Zhan is so persistent.
First, because the Golden Flame Monkey is a rare spirit beast in heaven and earth, Qin Zhan happened to have this great opportunity, so he thought of taking this monkey as his own spirit animal.
The second is because of the parchment scroll in the sarcophagus of the Hundred Damaged Demon Venerable.
During the period of staying in the Undead Illusion Realm, Qin Zhan naturally would not let go of taking this opportunity to study this volume that was supposed to be a sheepskin that recorded the abilities of the Hundred Damaged Demon Venerable during his lifetime.
And after some study, Qin Zhan was immediately fascinated by it.
In the scroll of sheepskin left by the Hundred Damage Demon Venerable, what was recorded was an unprecedented terrifying demonic skill, called the Outer Body Incarnation.
As mentioned in this exercise, the out-of-body incarnation, as the name suggests, is a doppelganger that can be refined to be completely controlled by the Buddha-figure. And the most terrifying reason for this exercise is that when each doppelganger is refined, it is equivalent to two of them cultivating at the same time, and the results of this cultivation will eventually all belong to the deity and be dispatched by the deity.
Originally, when he saw this, Qin Zhan was already ecstatic, thinking that if he followed this method, as long as the cultivator continued to refine the clone, then he could reach an unprecedented and invincible realm.
But when I saw this exercise at the end, I suddenly found that there were only eight clones that could be refined by this method. And it has been stated in the exercises that every body is extremely difficult to refine, as if ascending to the sky. As far as the Hundred Damage Demon Venerable is concerned, he only refined three clones during his lifetime, and they are still three relatively easy clones.
However, thinking about it from this also made Qin Zhan even more crazy, because when the Hundred Damage Demon Venerable refined the three bodies, he was already the top immortal sect. And if a few more bodies had been refined, maybe they wouldn't have died in the underground stone chamber with their lover in the first place.
And at the moment, another reason why Qin Zhan was eyeing the Golden Flame Monkey was that the blood of the Golden Flame Monkey was one of the materials needed to refine the eight clones.
When refining the eight doppelgangers, each of them is the entity essence of the doppelganger with the most essential attributes of the eight human bodies, such as gold, wood, water, fire, earth, ice, wind, thunder, etc. And now, the blood of the Golden Flame Fire Monkey is the most important material necessary for the fire attribute clone.
The clone of this attribute, I don't know if it was because the Hundred Damage Demon Venerable had refined it back then, and now Qin Zhan was able to meet the Golden Flame Monkey again in the illusion.
The moonlight shot down from the cracks in the mountains and forests, and just stopped on Qin Zhan's body. The afterglow was like scales, and it appeared again and again, but Qin Zhan's attention always stayed in the mouth of the cave, and he didn't dare to blink his eyes more. This time was his chance, a chance that was difficult to meet so lucky again in this life, so he didn't dare to relax in the slightest.
Finally, after the leaves seemed to sway thousands of times, there was finally movement in the valley cave. Under the light of the moonlight, there was a little black shadow in the cave, and then the black shadow gradually moved outside the cave, and finally suddenly a little golden flame suddenly lit up.
"Whoosh".
Suddenly, I saw that the golden flame monkey who had been hiding in the cave in the valley for more than ten days suddenly came out of the cave, and then picked up a bunch of bright red spirit fruits in a place outside the cave, and gnawed on it.
However, this Bright Red Spirit Fruit was exactly what Qin Zhan had prepared.
Soon, the Golden Flame Monkey had already eaten all the spirit fruits, but Qin Zhan at this time still didn't move.
When he saw that the fire monkey had eaten the spirit fruit, Qin Zhan's heart was ten thousand times happier than seeing anything.
Things went more smoothly than expected, because this spirit fruit had already been smeared by Qin Zhan with a colorless and tasteless laxative that he had carried with him before coming to the Undead Illusion Realm. Originally, even if the laxative was colorless and tasteless, the spirituality of the golden flame monkey was also weird enough to distinguish the spirit fruit. But the Golden Flame Monkey had been in a stalemate with Qin Zhan for more than ten days, and he had been hungry for more than ten days, so he would naturally be hungry and choose to eat, and he would distinguish the spirit fruit every time.
But when the Golden Flame Monkey ate all the spirit fruit and was still jumping back and forth in place for a while, Qin Zhan couldn't help but start to get anxious.
For the power of laxatives, Qin Zhan was extremely confident. Because before buying this laxative, Qin Zhan was originally interested, but the seller still boasted that this laxative was enough to put down a giant bear immediately with just a fingernail. But Qin Zhan had already used all the laxatives in order to capture the Golden Flame Monkey, but he saw that the Golden Flame Monkey was still alive.
After a while, the golden flame monkey was about to get up and leave. At this time, Qin Zhan finally couldn't bear it anymore and rushed out of the grass.
As soon as he came out of the grass, Qin Zhan summoned the green sword in the wordless book without saying a word.
Although facing a timid and thin monkey, Qin Zhan still didn't dare to be careless, and only thought of taking down the Golden Flame Monkey with the power of the green sword.
And the Golden Flame Monkey was already startled when Qin Zhan suddenly burst out. Then as soon as he saw the green sword summoned by Qin Zhan, he immediately hurriedly ran again.
It's just that at this time, the Golden Flame Monkey can't drill into the small hole in the valley, because this place has been sealed by Qin Zhan, so he can only rely on instinct to panic.
Immediately, a man and a beast flew quickly through the valley, up and down, and kept chasing.
"Twitter, twitter, twitter. ”
After a period of pursuit, the golden flame monkey could be heard screaming intermittently
But for Qin Zhan, he was trying to control the green sword while desperately chasing the fire. At the moment, for Qin Zhan, it was still a last resort, so he still only thought about restraining the fire monkey, not killing the fire monkey.
Then after a while, I don't know if it was because the Golden Flame Monkey was tired of running, or out of anger towards Qin Zhan. Suddenly, after turning another corner of the mountain, Qin Zhan suddenly saw the fire monkey stop abruptly, and put on an angry look at Qin Zhan.
As soon as the fire monkey stopped, Qin Zhan also stopped and was stunned.
After that, after a brief hesitation, Qin Zhan immediately pressed again. But when Qin Zhan took a few steps forward again, the Golden Flame Monkey suddenly gave birth to a phantom, a huge and infinite figure.
After this, Qin Zhan was suddenly frightened and stayed in place. Because at that moment, although it was just a phantom, Qin Zhan clearly saw a golden flame monkey that seemed to have turned into a mountain. Under the oppression of that figure, Qin Zhan immediately lost any strength to resist.
Fortunately, after this fright, the golden flame monkey immediately fell to the ground in extreme pain, tossing up and down.
And seeing the appearance of the Golden Flame Monkey, Qin Zhan immediately understood that the laxative finally worked.
It was only at this point that Qin Zhan finally dared to breathe a sigh of relief.
"Smack".
As Qin Zhan continued to get closer to the Golden Flame Monkey, the Fire Monkey's reaction became stronger and stronger. However, under this strong reaction, the effect of laxatives is more apparent. Under the last churn, the golden flame monkey finally fell limply to the ground.
At this point, Qin Zhan didn't hesitate any longer, and then happily walked up to the Golden Flame Monkey, and then grabbed its tail and carried it away.
After that, I went to another part of the Ghost Realm, another quiet and secluded mountain cave.
This was one of the temporary refuge points for Qin Zhan to stay in the illusionary realm.
In order not to stumble, as soon as Qin Zhan carried the Golden Flame Monkey to the cave, he took out a bottle, then showed his sword and made a small opening on the Golden Flame Monkey's arm. Subsequently, it can be regarded as smoothly and smoothly filled with a bottle of golden sparkling fire monkey blood.
As mentioned in the Hundred Damage Demon Venerable's external incarnation exercises, refining an incarnation of the fire attribute requires a small vial of Golden Flame Fire Monkey blood.
And after obtaining the blood, the Golden Flame Monkey somehow, after this bloodletting, he actually began to feel a lot more energetic, and he also opened his watery eyes and kept looking at Qin Zhan. In this way, Qin Zhan suddenly felt uncomfortable, and he also felt guilty.
However, just as Qin Zhan was pondering how to implement it next, there was a loud bang outside the cave, and there was even a tendency to collapse the cave.
Seeing this change, Qin Zhan suddenly understood a little.
"Beasts at night?"
Qin Zhan couldn't help but suddenly have such a thought in his heart.
Originally, the reason why Qin Zhan had stayed in the Undead Illusion Realm for so long was to make a greater breakthrough when the beasts were traveling at night. It's just that when Qi met the Golden Flame Monkey, he forgot about it and delayed it.
After Yan Li'er followed his father Yan Fulai and left, Qin Zhan immediately found a remote place to hide. After Qin Zhan sorted out what he had gained in the illusion, he suddenly found that even he himself had undergone many changes.
After obtaining the green sword, Qin Zhan summoned the wordless book again and studied it carefully, but he was surprised to find that in one of the pages of the wordless book that was originally empty, there were two more cyan sword patterns.
One of the swords has the word Yuan Tu written on it like a mosquito and a fly, while the other has the word A Nose.
As soon as he was reminded of this, Qin Zhan immediately summoned the green sword that could be summoned by himself from the wordless book again. Then I saw that the green sword that could be summoned by myself was the same as the sword line pattern in the wordless book, and the sword also had the word Yuantu on the sword. In other words, Qin Zhan was able to summon the Yuan Tu Qing Sword from the book, but the other Ah Bi Qing Sword was beyond his power.
In addition to this anomaly, Qin Zhan was even right when he was resting and sleeping, and the sword dancing sword of the dreamman who often appeared in his dreams seemed to have gradually become clear because of the relationship between the two green swords.
At this time, Qin Zhan could already see seventy percent of the swordsmanship danced by the person in his dream. But even if Qin Zhan could see seventy percent clearly, he was still out of order in the trial when he woke up later. Therefore, this change can be regarded as a big disappointment for Qin Zhan.
As for the Golden Pill of Sitting and Forgetting that he got from Yan Fulong, Qin Zhan was not willing to take it immediately.
Although he had already learned from others that the Golden Pill could make ordinary immortal cultivators directly advance to a realm, Qin Zhan still wanted to take the Golden Pill after this nocturnal trial of the Hundred Beasts in the Undead Illusion Realm, in order to get the greatest effect.
Because of this kind of consideration, Qin Zhan waited for a while, while studying the method of incarnation outside the body of the Hundred Damage Demon Venerable, and on the other hand, he was still constantly cultivating the exercises of the wordless book, so that his cultivation could be consolidated in Qi refining. As for the wonderful use of the green sword and the wordless book, after Qin Zhan tried to summon two green swords at the same time to no avail, because of Cui Fuyan's admonition, he no longer took them out easily.
At this time, after smelling the movement outside the cave, Qin Zhan didn't want to hide in the cave anymore, and even after making preparations, he carried the golden flame monkey with its tail long gone.
At this time, Qin Zhan also had great expectations for the trial of the night walking of the hundred beasts. When he passed through Shi Hongying's battle, he easily broke through to the realm of Qi refining. Therefore, at this time, he also wanted to enter the country under the crisis of the night walking of the hundred beasts.
After he was able to walk out of the cave, Qin Zhan heard an even more deafening sound. But at this time, because of the remote location, Qin Zhan could only hear its voice, and he didn't see any demon beasts appearing in pairs in front of him.
At that moment, Qin Zhan didn't dare to be careless, holding the weak Golden Flame Monkey in one hand and an ordinary long sword picked up from the Land of Illusion in the other, and then followed the sound towards the place where the demon beast made a loud noise.
After a cautious period of moving forward, Qin Zhan condescendingly spotted hundreds of various demon beasts running past the front of him one after another in a small valley.
And when he saw so many demon beasts, Qin Zhan immediately felt a little powerless, only to feel that not to mention hundreds of demon beasts, even a dozen demon beasts were enough for him to drink a pot.
But just when Qin Zhan was hesitating how to make a move, he suddenly saw that behind the herd of beasts, dozens of fierce figures in black clothes appeared out of nowhere.
I saw only a dozen people in black, also like the subordinates brought by Yan Fulai, and their whole bodies were tightly wrapped in black cloth. The difference was that a dozen men in black did not wear hats or cloaks, but each carried a golden spear.
After seeing such a scene, Qin Zhan suddenly realized that these hundreds of demon beasts were not running around, but were being chased and killed by more than a dozen black-clothed men armed with golden spears.
This kind of hunting and killing is tantamount to a man in black having to deal with hundreds of demon beasts.
And just when Qin Zhan was thinking so, he saw that under the pursuit and killing of more than a dozen black-clothed people, dozens of demon beasts had begun to die at the hands of the black-clothed people one after another. When the demon beast died, each person in black held a narrow black cloth bag in his hand, and then kept loading all the demon beasts dozens of times larger than the black cloth bag.
For a while, Qin Zhan was shocked and hurriedly followed from a distance. At this time, Qin Zhan was no longer focused on confronting the demon beasts, but was eager to know whether these dozen or so black-clothed people were going to kill almost all the thousands of demon beasts in front of him.
Soon, after a while, Qin Zhan couldn't help but slowly stop, because the ferocious skills displayed by more than a dozen black-clothed people as if they were dead were soon killing thousands of demon beasts in the night, and only a few were left.
Then, more than a dozen black-clothed talents disappeared in a flash and disappeared into the bloody mountain forest.
After witnessing such a tragic situation, Qin Zhan suddenly couldn't raise the interest of hunting demon beasts anymore.
At this time, just after a dozen or so black-clothed people left, Qin Zhan suddenly found a group of familiar characters following him again. It turned out to be Nan Guoxiang and a group of his subordinates.
But seeing a few people slowly walking along the path hunted by a dozen black-clothed men just now, and then they heard one of the subordinates closest to Nan Guo Xiang also ask Nan Guo Xiang with trembling hearts:
"I didn't expect this Changle Sect to be so powerful, just a dozen or so sect members below actually killed hundreds of demon beasts. I wonder what the young master thinks about this matter?"
"Hmph, in recent years, the Dao Demon Sect has long been eliminated, and the Changle Sect has long surpassed the other two major demon sects, the Heavenly Mandate Sect and the Yongle Palace, so it is not uncommon to have this ability. It's just that I don't know what purpose this Changle Sect came here to hunt demon beasts, it seems that since the Changle Sect has already touched this place, then we don't want to stay for a long time. In this undead fantasy, we have already followed our grandfather's instructions and got what we deserved, and it is not in vain. ”
I only heard that Nan Guo Xiang also said with a solemn face.
"Yes, young master. ”
The subordinates also hurriedly replied with affirmation.
Then, the group hurriedly stepped through the bloodstains on the mountain, and disappeared in front of Qin Zhan after a while.
"Changle Sect!"
After eavesdropping on Nan Guo Xiang's explanation, Qin Zhan immediately had an understanding of the current situation. Although Qin Zhan had also heard of the Changle Sect and knew that the Changle Sect was also one of the three major demon sects, Qin Zhan had only seen the power of the Changle Sect just now.
At the moment, for even Nan Guo Xiang, who is the Seven Masters of the Immortal Gate, is very jealous, Qin Zhan naturally does not dare to underestimate it. Qin Zhan didn't dare to stay any longer in his heart, and immediately had the intention of retreating.
However, just as Qin Zhan was thinking about it, he had already stepped out, and he was also planning to leave the illusion realm later, but a man in black suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.
A man in black armed with a golden spear.
