Chapter 44: Red Dragon Fruit
From the mouths of the villagers, Lin Cheng was already very sure that what they were talking about was the iron ape, a spirit beast that was rare in the immortal cultivation world. It is a spirit beast, not a demon beast, a demon beast is cultivated by a beast, and a spirit beast is born, and many immortal cultivators like to catch spirit beasts as pets.
The reason why Lin Cheng was excited when he heard that it was the spirit beast was not because of how big the effect of this spirit beast was, but because wherever the spirit beast was not guarded by the recognized master, there would be heavenly and earthly treasures that immortal cultivators dreamed of.
Lin Cheng held back the excitement in his heart and said: "I understand, this beast is very powerful, you can't deal with it, who is willing to lead the way, I will help you get rid of this beast." "Lin Cheng is still talking about beasts, not spirit beasts.
When the people present heard this, they all looked at me and I looked at you, and they were speechless for a while, Lin Cheng said: "Don't worry, I'll keep you safe, take me there, you can come back, and I'll handle the rest." ”
At this time, a man who was a little thin and slightly elfish stepped forward and said, "Brother Lin, my name is Chen Gang, I'll take you there." ”
Lin Cheng said happily: "Okay, Brother Chen Gang, thank you." Without further ado, let's go now. “
After greeting everyone, Lin Chengcheng set off with Chen Gang, who brought a short knife and a bow and arrow, and led Lin Cheng to the forest to the west of the village.
This forest Lin Cheng doesn't know the name of the road, it is no different from the forests in other places, the only strange thing is that there are no demon beasts in this forest, otherwise these villagers are ordinary people, and it is impossible to make a living by hunting.
In order to save time, when they encountered beasts along the way, they were all sent away by Lin Cheng at will, and those who were killed were left on the road, and when Chen Gang and they found someone to bring them back, although Lin Cheng had a space ring, Lin Cheng didn't want to expose these.
Chen Gang saw that Lin Cheng could deal with the beast that they had to work very hard to deal with so casually, and he threw himself to the ground with the five bodies that Lin Cheng admired, and looked at Lin Cheng even more in awe, and at the same time, he no longer worried about safety along the way.
It took two or three hours to get to where they said they were. It was a forest in a small valley, and the whole place was quiet, not even the sound of an insect. It's strange here, there is only one kind of towering tree that Lin Cheng doesn't recognize, and there are no other plants, and without these big trees, this place would be like a desert.
When he arrived at the mouth of the valley, Chen Gang said with some fear: "Brother Lin, this is here, that beast is in this valley. “
Lin Cheng nodded and said, "Okay, I know the truth." You go back first. “
Chen Gang said: "Brother Nalin, you should be more careful. "Okay!" Lin Cheng replied as he observed,
Seeing this, Chen Gang didn't say anything more, and walked cautiously back and forth. After Lin Cheng waited for Chen Gang to leave, he slowly walked towards the middle of the valley, his feet on the somewhat sandy ground, making a rustling sound, which was particularly clear in the quiet woods.
At this moment, a strong wind hit the back of Lin Cheng's head, Lin Cheng's heart moved, a wrong body, without using energy, directly used his fist to blast towards the strong wind with the strength of his body, with a muffled sound, a black shadow retreated back more than a dozen steps.
Lin Cheng's eyes narrowed, and he saw a humanoid monster with a long head and two horns, a face like an ape, and a monster with fine scales all over his body was grinning angrily at Lin Cheng, and the sound was like a tiger roar.
This is the iron ape, although Lin Cheng has learned about it in cultivating immortals, but when he really saw it, he was still taken aback.
Lin Cheng understood that this iron ape has a characteristic, it is a spirit beast with pure physical attacks, through growth, when it reaches adulthood, it can ignore most of the spell attacks of cultivating immortals, and it can even compete with the masters of the Yuan Infant Stage, if there is a natural treasure for it to evolve, it can even reach the god transformation stage.
And if you want to subdue this spirit beast, there is only one way, that is, to subdue him with the strength of pure flesh, and then it will recognize its lord and cannot use any spell attacks.
This kind of spirit beast is already scarce, and it still needs to be subdued in this strange way, and there are very few cultivators in the immortal cultivation world who simply cultivate the physical body, so it is rare to hear that anyone can accept this kind of spirit beast.
Judging from the strength of the attack just now, Lin Cheng knew that this iron ape was still in the growth stage, and its strength was about the same as the strength of an immortal cultivator who stepped into the golden pill stage with half a foot.
Lin Cheng smiled slightly, he didn't want to kill the iron ape for the time being, to see if he could subdue it, so he didn't use spells to attack, but just used the strength of his body to attack. Fortunately, Lin Cheng had cultivated the amount of physical strength, and the Heaven and Earth Decision also had a cultivation effect on the amount of physical strength, otherwise Lin Cheng would not have been confident that the amount of physical strength could be subdued.
Seeing that Lin Cheng was just looking at it and didn't attack, the iron ape roared for a while, and couldn't help but attack again.
The Iron Ape's attack was very simple, it was all smashed straight at Lin Cheng with his fist, but the speed was very fast.
Lin Cheng also responded with his fists, beating the iron ape into a whoa-wow, becoming more and more angry, and every time he was repelled by Lin Cheng, he quickly rushed up.
Although the iron ape was very fast and powerful, it didn't even hurt Lin Cheng's clothes, and the eyes that looked at Lin Cheng were no longer angry, but slowly turned into awe.
An hour later, the iron ape lay on the ground softly, panting, and looked at Lin Cheng with some horror.
Lin Cheng smiled, stepped forward and grabbed the iron ape's hand, and an energy input into the past, and after a while, the iron ape jumped up and knelt down respectfully in front of Lin Cheng.
Lin Cheng was overjoyed in his heart, forced out a drop of essence blood, wiped it on the iron ape's eyebrows, and the essence blood instantly submerged into the iron ape's eyebrows, and disappeared, Lin Cheng suddenly felt that there was something more in his soul, and he had a trace of connection with the iron ape, this was the first time Lin Cheng had subdued the spirit beast, and it felt weird.
After the iron ape recognized the master, he stood up and stood beside Lin Cheng respectfully, looking at Lin Cheng's eyes with a hint of meekness.
This iron ape is as tall as a seven or eight-year-old child, Lin Cheng touched the head of the iron ape and said, "Are you guarding something here?"
The iron ape nodded respectfully, as if he could understand Lin Cheng's words, but he couldn't speak, and stretched out his hand to point to a place in the valley.
Lin Cheng said happily: "Okay, then you take me there." “
The iron ape roared and led Lin Chengcheng towards the middle of the valley. After walking for a short time, he came to a flat land without any trees within a radius of 100 zhang, Lin Cheng saw that there was a half-human tall plant that was red from root to top, and on the top of the plant was growing three red fruits the size of a baby's fist, which were emitting red light, dyeing the surrounding land red.
Lin Cheng was shocked, he couldn't imagine that he could encounter the red dragon fruit here, and the iron ape was guarding this thing?
Lin Cheng was overjoyed in his heart, the red dragon fruit is a kind of natural treasure to improve cultivation, as long as one red dragon fruit, whether it is the late Jindan stage into the Yuan Infant Period, or from the late Yuan Infant Stage into the Transformation God Period, it can increase a very large chance.
A trace of aroma came, and Lin Cheng smelled it comfortably for a while.
However, I am slightly disappointed that the red dragon fruit does not seem to be fully ripe, and it seems that it will take two or three days.
But fortunately, fortunately, Lin Cheng came at the right time, if it was two or three days late, the red dragon fruit would not exist, and it would definitely be eaten by the iron ape to speed up its growth, and Lin Cheng estimated that he would not get it again, and it would be impossible to subdue the iron ape.
Lin Cheng had no choice but to wait here for two or three days, beckoning the iron ape to sit down, Lin Cheng rummaged through the Qiankun ring, and couldn't find anything suitable for enhancing the strength of the iron ape, so Lin Cheng had no choice but to give up.
Lin Cheng was optimistic about the red dragon fruit, and then cultivated on the spot, anyway, the red dragon fruit was not ripe yet, Lin Cheng had nothing to do, it was better not to waste time cultivating.
At night, the beast activity began to be frequent, some beasts passed by here, although they were frightened by the breath of the iron ape, but the breath of the red dragon fruit made the beasts instinctively irresistible, and some beasts couldn't resist the temptation, and roared one after another.
The iron ape roared angrily, and some timid beasts fled, but there were still some beasts that could not resist their instincts and rushed towards the red dragon fruit, and these beasts were destroyed by the iron ape one after another, and when many beasts died, no beast dared to come.
Although Lin Cheng was cultivating, he knew the scene outside, Lin Cheng didn't make a move, if these ordinary beasts and iron apes couldn't handle it, the iron ape would be worthy of the title of spirit beast.
By the next day, the aroma of the red dragon fruit became stronger and stronger, wafting farther away, attracting more ferocious beasts, and even the fierce beasts in the air came, and the whole world was filled with the roar of beasts.
The iron ape looked serious and cold, guarding the side of the red dragon fruit, and all the beasts that intended to get close to the red dragon fruit were killed ten zhang away from the red dragon fruit, even the fierce beasts in the air were no exception.
Another night passed, and the red dragon fruit was safe and sound, but ten zhang away were many fierce beasts that had died. Lin Cheng was still cultivating, ignoring the battle between the iron ape and the fierce beast.
On the third day, the aroma of the red dragon fruit was already so strong that it was intoxicating, and the red light on the fruit was getting stronger and stronger, Lin Cheng knew that the red dragon fruit was about to ripen, Lin Cheng no longer cultivated, and also walked to the side of the red dragon fruit, looking at it excitedly, at this time, Lin Cheng also had to watch it himself to be relieved, so as not to have any accidents.
It was not until the morning of the fourth day, when the sun had just risen, that the red dragon fruit emitted dazzling red light, reaching the sky, echoing the sunlight in the sky. Lin Cheng knew that the red dragon fruit was ripe, Lin Cheng quickly and carefully took it off, found a jade box in the Qiankun ring, and put it in the ring.
Lin Cheng no longer paid attention to the fierce beasts that were attacking madly, and flew away with the iron ape, just now the signs of the red dragon fruit ripening, Lin Cheng was afraid that an immortal cultivator would just pass by here and see it, causing unnecessary trouble.
It wasn't until after galloping for thousands of miles that Lin Cheng stopped, found a hidden cave, and got into it.
After a short rest, Lin Cheng excitedly took out the jade box, opened it, and three crimson red dragon fruits lay quietly in the box, and the aroma instantly filled the entire cave.
Lin Cheng made a ban to prevent the aroma from coming out of the cave, and then picked up a red dragon fruit, hehe smiled, red dragon fruit, it was really time.
