Chapter 56: Cannon Fodder

Chapter 56 Cannon Fodder

After thinking about it, Zhao Di still felt that with his spiritual root qualifications, the possibility of building a foundation with just one foundation building pill was too low. Although Xiao Ding may be able to cultivate the best foundation building pill, even if a superb pill is served, there is no guarantee that he will be able to cross the foundation building bottleneck.

So although he already had a piece of blood essence stone, he still rushed to Bihan Pond according to the plan. If you can complete one more task and obtain two Tsukidan, the success rate of Tsukidan will increase exponentially.

And in his opinion, the task of Bihantan can be successfully completed at least half of the time.

According to the records in the mission jade slip, the water of Bihan Pond is cold and piercing all year round, and the bottom of the pool is a vein of ice attribute spirit stones, and there are many ice attribute spirit stones scattered everywhere. Of course, most of them are low-level spirit stones, but there have also been monks who have found a few middle-grade ice spirit stones. In this mission, three mid-level ice spirit stones were exchanged for one Tsukidan.

For the other monks, it was already extremely lucky to find a middle-grade spirit stone at the bottom of this pool, let alone three! Therefore, this task was very difficult to complete, and the danger level was second-level, which was not low. This means that in the cold pool, there are first-level high-level demon beasts that are equivalent to high-level cultivators in the Qi refining period. This is undoubtedly very dangerous for monks who want to hunt for treasure at the bottom of the pool.

But for Zhao Di, he believes that although the ice spirit stone produced at the bottom of this pool is different, it is only a difference in appearance after all, and it is essentially the same. In other words, the low-grade ice spirit stones produced at the bottom of the pool can also be promoted to mid-level or even high-grade ice spirit stones by Xiao Ding. In this way, as long as he could find three low-rank spirit stones in Hantan, he would be able to complete this task.

In this way, the difficulty of the task is greatly reduced. As long as the luck is not too bad and does not provoke the demon beasts in the pool, there should be no problem.

With such an idea, two days later, Zhao Di came to the area of Bihantan.

When there were still seven or eight miles away from this cold pool, Zhao Di had clearly felt that the temperature was slowly decreasing. The closer you get to the cold pool, the more the temperature drops. Even within a range of nearly 100 zhang on the edge of the cold pool, there was hoarfrost.

Except for a few strange and tall strange trees with leaves like jade, as far as the eye can see, the edge of the pool is a white expanse.

Although there is a word "pool" in the name, Zhao Di can't turn the vast lake in front of him into a waterhole, and I am afraid it is more appropriate to call it Bihan Lake.

The water is dark green, and due to the low temperature, there is a faint layer of mist and ice crystals floating on the water surface. With such a cold temperature, the pool water does not freeze, there must be something extraordinary.

Seeing that Bihan Lake was so wide, Zhao Di had joy and worry in his heart.

Happily, in such a vast place, even if other monks came here, they didn't disturb each other, which saved a lot of trouble.

The worry is that the jade slip only said that the ice spirit stone vein is at the bottom of the pool, but the Bihan Pond is so big, I'm afraid it will be difficult to find.

slapped a "water curtain talisman" on his body, and Zhao Di, who was about to go down to Tan, suddenly stopped moving.

After a while, several monks dressed in different costumes, wearing light masks of various colors, rose from Tan Shui, stepped on the water, and rushed towards the shore, looking a little embarrassed.

Soon Zhao Di understood what was going on. Under the wild surge of water in the pool, it converges into a rapid whirlpool that is more than three zhang wide, and a dragon with a whole body such as jasper, the thickness of the water tank, and the length of more than ten zhang jumps high from the whirlpool. This demon beast looked at the seven or eight human monks under it, and there was an angry look in its big eyes like copper bells, which made people even have some delusions of mental trance. At this time, Jiaolong opened his mouth violently and spewed out a white cold air more than a foot thick at the nearest Yuqing Sect monk.

This Yuqingmen Daoist of the twelfth layer of the Qi Refining Period, the aura of the protective body on his body was like paper paste, and he was easily swallowed directly by the white cold qi spewed out by the dragon. Immediately afterwards, the white cold air condensed the surrounding water vapor, forming a large ice cube of a foot long, freezing the monk to death on the spot.

The dragon opened its mouth, and the entire ice cube was swallowed into its mouth.

"Second-level demon beast Bihan Jiao!" Zhao Di was shocked. Judging from the strength of the aura emitted by this dragon, this is a second-level demon beast relative to the monks in the early stage of human foundation building. In addition, the Jiaolong was originally much stronger than ordinary demon beasts, and the strength of this ice-attribute Jiaolong was even higher than that of ordinary early foundation building monks, so just one face, he killed the unlucky Taoist priest in Yuqingmen.

"Don't panic, on land this beast will be greatly weakened. A girl's voice that Zhao Di was very familiar with sounded.

Zhao Di turned his head to look, and sure enough, it was Jian Xin'er's good sister, the Golden Leaf Fairy.

In addition to this dignified and upright girl, there were also two monks from the Taixu Sect by her side, as well as an old man of the Taoist priest of the Yuqing Sect who was fifty or sixty years old, a red-clothed girl from the Lanyue Sect, and two monks from the Jingming Sect, one old and one young. These people were holding magic weapons, more than ten feet around the Golden Leaf Fairy.

After Zhao Di looked at it, he was suddenly speechless. Among this group of people, only the Golden Leaf Fairy was a cultivator at the thirteenth level of the Qi Refining Period, and most of the rest were at the twelfth layer of the Qi Refining Period, and even the girl from the Lanyue Sect and the little monk of the Jingming Sect were all monks at the eleventh layer of the Qi Refining Period.

It can be said that this group of people, except for the Golden Leaf Fairy, are all cannon fodder-level monks in the shape of the Dragon Descending Valley this time.

There are nearly 300 monks from the seven factions participating in the mission of the Dragon Descending Valley, and each of them has different comprehensive strengths such as the level of cultivation and the quality of the magic weapon, so that the monks in the Dragon Descending Valley can basically be divided into three types.

The first type of person is the lowest level of monks, who are the least strong. The cultivation of these people is not even the thirteenth layer of the Qi refining period, and the magic weapons are average, if there is no special means of registration, let alone finding treasures, it is extremely difficult to even save their lives. These people are just cannon fodder for the seven major factions to participate in this treasure hunt, and if they find the treasures of heaven and earth, they are almost all robbed and killed, and they make wedding dresses for others. And the number of this cannon fodder is the largest, accounting for about half of all monks. Judging from the previous missions in the Dragon Descending Valley, the survival rate of these people is extremely low, even only one in ten.

The second type of person is an ordinary thirteenth-layer cultivator in the Qi Refining Period, similar to the type of Golden Leaf Fairy. These monks are not weak, and they have a certain ability to protect themselves, but they are not so strong that they are unscrupulous. When this kind of person encounters a lone low-level monk, he usually kills and grabs treasures mercilessly, but if he encounters a stronger one, he can only avoid it from afar.

The third type of talent is the most important beneficiary of the mission in the Dragon Descending Valley, they are generally the peak monks of the thirteenth layer of the Qi Refining Period, and they are armed with powerful magic weapons, and they are the elite of the Qi Refining Period cultivators. These people came to the Valley of the Descending Dragons, and rarely even hunted for treasures themselves, but mainly in the final stages of the mission in the Valley of the Descending Dragons, slaughtering other monks on a large scale, collecting treasures by snatching the storage bags of these monks. The number of monks who can become elites is very small, and there are only four or five people in a sect. But in the end, it is often these elite disciples who can bring the treasures out of the valley. Therefore, these people are the disciples that the major sects really expect to be able to complete their tasks, and as for the other monks, they are just acting as cannon fodder for these elites.

From the point of view of cultivation, Zhao Di was just a monk of the twelfth layer of the Qi refining period, and he originally belonged to the cannon fodder level. However, because he was armed with top-grade magic weapons and an astonishing number of mid- and high-level talismans and other items, his strength could already compete with elite disciples.

At this time, the seven or eight monks in front of him, except for the Golden Leaf Fairy, were all real low-level monks in the Dragon Descending Valley. At this time, they were all obviously led by the Golden Leaf Fairy and formed a small group. If this small group can keep the outside world all the time, it does have some self-protection ability, and with the strength of everyone, it can barely compete with one or two elite disciples.

But among the monks who entered the Dragon Descending Valley, which one did not have a purpose, and which one of them was a good stubble who was sincere and kind to others! The Golden Leaf Fairy was able to temporarily unite these cannon fodder from different sects and with their own ghosts, and I really don't know how she did it!

Even when facing the Ice Attribute Jiaolong, whose strength was far higher than their own, these monks did not run or escape, but strictly followed the command of the Golden Leaf Fairy, manipulating all kinds of magic weapons to besiege this second-level demon beast.

(The second more, because it is recommended to have seven hundred, there is at least one more at night!If the collection also breaks three hundred, continue to add more!)
