"Whoosh!"
A crisp whistling echoed across the beach, followed by an angry and painful birdsong, and a moment later a large, half-man-tall gray bird fell from mid-air and fell heavily on the sand, blood flowing, and after a few convulsions in a pool of blood, it died.

On the beach five feet away from this low-level demon beast wind bird, Shen Shi breathed a long sigh of relief, and the originally solemn expression on his face relaxed. Then he looked up at the sky, it was past noon, and the sun was shining, and it was the hottest time of the day.
Unconsciously, he had been struggling on this demon island for several hours, during which he killed four iron-armored armadillos along the beach on the outskirts of this demon island, and finally met a wind bird, and at the same time took a qi nourishing pill in the middle, so the degree of spiritual energy recovery was much faster than before, so he was not forced to return to the big ship to wait for a day.
Compared to the relatively bulky iron-armored armadillo, the low-level demon beast of the Wind Bird is not as good as the armadillo in terms of strength, but it is much stronger in terms of agility. After Shen Shi practiced water archery, it was the first time to fight with this kind of fast demon beast, at the beginning he was not very adaptable, and he was soon close to his body by the wind bird, and he really encountered several dangers, but fortunately, he was also in the realm of the middle level of the qi refining realm after all, and his body could barely resist the attack of the wind bird.
Rao is like this, Shen Shi at this moment also looks a little wolf, his head and clothes are messy, and several places have been torn open, these are naturally due to the claws of the wind bird, and even on his cheek, there is also a wound with open skin, although it is not long, but the blood looks quite terrifying.
Standing in place and concentrating, Shen Shi carefully checked his body again, and made sure that there were no other injuries except for some external injuries, so he was relieved, as for the scratched wound on his face, he didn't care too much, the wind bird is not poisonous, except for some pain in the wound, there is no need to worry about anything else.
Walking to the side of the wind bird, he looked at the corpse of the wind bird, and then reached out to rummage on the back of the wind bird, in the soft and slightly tough feathers of the tentacles, on the back of the neck, he quickly found three feathers of different colors from the surrounding ones, not the gray of the wind bird's whole body, but showing a relatively bright yellow color.
This is the most concentrated spiritual power on the wind bird's body, and it is also the most valuable spiritual material produced by the wind bird, called "Wind Bird Yellow Feather", and each yellow feather can be exchanged for three spirit crystals after returning to Qingyu Island.
In this way, this wind bird has a reward of nine spirit crystals, plus the four iron-armored armadillos killed before, Shen Shi has earned seventeen spirit crystals on this demon island in just half a day, and the reward can be described as rich, even compared to some high-level senior brothers in the Qi Refining Realm.
In fact, Shen Shi is indeed an outlier, you must know that among the newcomer disciples on the Qingyu Island of the Lingxiao Sect, including the old disciples who have not broken through the Ning Yuan Realm left in previous years, almost all of them have the ability to go to the Demon Island to catch demons at least when they reach the high-level realm of the Qi Refining Realm, and most of them still travel in a group.
It's not that everyone's strength is not enough, it's really normal, most people are at the high level of the Qi Refining Realm, and their physical strength has gone up a notch, enough to block the attack of demon beasts, so they dare to go to the demon island, and the Five Elements Spell is not completely uncultivated, but ordinary people practice the Five Elements Spell, and often the casting time needs to be very long, and the ten breaths and nine breaths are common, and those who can painstakingly cultivate to the eighth or even seven breaths to cast a spell are already considered to be talented in the Five Elements Technique.
And with such a long spell casting time, it is obvious that there is no way to face the demon beast alone, so you can only find a companion to walk with, let your companion take the lead in the battle, and cast the spell yourself in the distance, which is the most efficient method. As for Shen Shi, because of the mysterious consequences caused by the Pure Heart Mantra, the spell casting degree is almost equivalent to that of a Ning Yuan Realm monk who opened up the Jade Mansion Qi Sea, but none of them can have it.
Shen Shi took off the three yellow feathers, and contentedly put them into the small Ruyi ring on his left hand, which was already filled with four pieces of iron-armored armadillo's bone armor at the moment, and the harvest was not unrich, but it was a pity that he didn't meet the iron-armored armadillo picking up the nest of the black-striped turtle on the beach today......
Thinking a little greedily, Shen Shi himself felt a little ridiculous, how could he have such good luck every day, smiled, stood up, and looked around in a blink of an eye, at this moment he recovered his spiritual power after taking a Qi Nourishing Pill, and he consumed a lot in the battle, and the spiritual power at the center of his eyebrows was only enough to cast the last water archery technique.
Do you continue to search for prey, or will this be the end of the day?
Shen Shi touched the small Ruyi ring in his hand, a little hesitant, it is said that this reward is enough, and it is not a waste of time to turn around, but ......
"Boom!"
Just as he was thinking, there was a dull loud noise, followed by a beast roar, but it came from the depths of the forest in front of him, startling Shen Shi.
Is there a powerful monster beast nearby?
Shen Shi's first reaction was like this, he was self-aware, although his water archery skills were a little successful, but a single person could at most deal with these low-level demon beasts on the edge of the demon island, and the demon beasts that went a little deeper into the island would be fierce and powerful Cheng DΓΉ would be better than these armadillo wind birds, and with his current mid-level realm of refining qi, he really couldn't deal with it.
He turned around and left, although the unknown demon beast in the forest had not yet appeared at this moment, but it was better not to meet it, but after he ran a few steps quickly, he suddenly heard a loud cry from the forest, but it made him stop all of a sudden.
It was obviously a person's voice, it sounded like he was fighting with some kind of demon beast, and now there was only one human being on this demon island, except for Shen Shi himself.
Shen Shi stared at the depths of the forest, his brows furrowed, but after a moment of silence, he still turned around and left.

There were no accidents on the way back, Shen Shi returned to the big ship docked on the beach safely, and the moment he landed on the deck, he subconsciously turned his eyes to look around, only to see that the ship was empty, and Gan Ze had not returned.
Xu Yanzhi and Zeng Zhibai were also nowhere to be seen, I don't know if they were hiding somewhere to practice, Shen Shi didn't look for them, he found a place on the deck to sit down, and glanced out of the boat from time to time, only to see that the demon island was lonely, and there was still no figure in sight.
Time passed quietly, when the scorching sun shone on the island, until an hour later, suddenly a movement came from the forest on the demon island, Shen Shi stood up, held the side of the boat and looked, only to see the figure flashed, Gan Ze slowly walked out from the depths of the woods.
He looked very tired, his face was a little pale, it seemed that because of exhaustion, he even walked a little vain, so he walked all the way from the seawall, boarded the big ship, and then sat on the deck, with his back to the side of the ship, where he gasped for breath, first glanced at Shen Shi, and the expression on his face slowly relaxed.
Shen Shi quickly noticed that there were two things beside Gan Ze, one was a large black piece of fur, and the other was a pair of sharp and slender fangs, he stared at these two things for a while, and then looked up at Gan Ze, just as Gan Ze was gasping for breath, and he also raised his eyes to look at him.
The two looked at each other in mid-air for a moment, and Shen Shi first showed a smile and said, "Have you worked hard?"
Gan Ze smiled, there was a hint of tiredness in his expression, but his spirit looked pretty good, and he smiled: "It's okay, uh, what is on your face?"
Shen Shi reached out and touched the wound on his cheek gently, and said, "I was caught by the wind bird, it's nothing." β
Gan Ze glanced at him, nodded, and then saw that Shen Shi seemed to be empty-handed, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Today...... Bad luck?"
Shen Shi smiled, stretched out his left hand and handed it to Gan Ze not far in front of him, showing him the little Ruyi ring, Gan Ze glanced at it and his eyes lit up, and suddenly said: "Little Ruyi ring, I actually forgot this...... I'll have to get one next time. β
Shen Shi nodded with a smile, glanced at the two spiritual materials beside him, and said, "Could this be the ghost shadow lynx?"
Gan Ze was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Shen Shi with a little more solemnity in his eyes, and said, "Exactly, have you seen this kind of demon beast?"
Shen Shi smiled: "Before...... I've seen it once," he said, raising his eyes to look at Gan Ze, and there was already a little more admiration in his eyes, and said, "You are more powerful than I thought, and you actually killed a ghost lynx alone." β
The ghost shadow lynx is in the rank, in fact, it still belongs to the first-order demon beast, and the wind bird and the iron-armored armadillo are at the same level, but they are also first-order demon beasts, and the combat power of the ghost shadow lynx is far superior to the wind bird and the iron-armored armadillo, whether it is in strength, degree or even ferocity, it is considered to be the strongest of the first-order demon beasts, Shen Shi dares to face the wind bird and the iron-armored armadillo alone, but if he encounters the ghost shadow lynx, he is afraid that it will be more than lucky.
In the past, Shen Shi had also seen other high-level senior brothers and sisters hunt this kind of demon beast, but they were all hunting in groups, and it was indeed unheard of for Gan Ze to kill the ghost shadow lynx alone like Gan Ze today, it can be seen that the person in front of him is really not in vain, and under the fame, he really has unusual strength.
However, Gan Ze didn't seem to be much complacent, and after chatting with Shen Shi for a few words, it seemed that because the battle with the ghost bobcat had really consumed a lot of his strength, he closed his eyes and went to rest there.
Shen Shi saw that he looked tired, so he didn't bother, and walked quietly aside, so he waited until the sky was getting dark and the sun was setting, Xu Yanzhi and Zeng Zhibai suddenly walked out of the ghost on the boat, watching Gan Ze and Shen Shi return to the boat safely, the two of them seemed to be relieved, and then their eyes fell on Gan Ze, especially when they glanced at the fur and fangs beside him, and there was a hint of surprise on their faces.
But they didn't say much, but turned away, and soon the big ship lifted anchor and sailed back.
Shen Shi, on the other hand, stood up silently and looked from the deck at the fading demon island, which regained its calm and seemed to be about to fall into a deep sleep as the sun set and sunk into the sea. It's just that when the sunset at dusk shone on Shen Shi's face, he seemed to have a trace of inexplicable doubt, and his eyes looking at this demon island were also a little deep.
If he remembered correctly, the ghost shadow lynx was a monster beast with a natural temperament that loved heat and yin, and often came out to forage at dusk, and rarely appeared at noon.
But today, this ghost shadow lynx killed by Gan Ze seems to be a little different......
