Seeing this scene, Han Changming and Ye Xin were extremely shocked. They could naturally see that the monsters attacked each other and died at the hands of their companions.
I wonder if this situation will occur if I fight against a cultivator.
At this time, more than a dozen second-level monsters surrounded them again, as if they could never be killed.
Shen Yueshuang exuded the aura of a Jindan stage, and her expression was cold, giving people a feeling that she was keeping people at a distance.
Shen Yueshuang's ten fingers brushed across the strings of the zither, a rapid sound of the zither rang out, and a golden sound wave flew out and spread in all directions.
When the monsters touched the golden sound waves, they all flew backwards without exception. Their huge bodies fell heavily to the ground and they were unable to stand up for a while.
Golden sound waves quickly swept through their bodies, and the fallen monsters never stood up again, with blood flowing from all their orifices.
Shen Yueshuang's face quickly turned pale and bloodless. She quickly swallowed a blue pill. There were several clearly visible danwen on the surface of the pill. Not long after, her face quickly returned to its rosy color.
Another dozen second-level monsters rushed over, and all kinds of spells came from all directions.
At this time, the magic power of Han Changming and the other three had almost recovered, and they all took action to attack the attacking monsters.
The roaring sound continued, and these spells naturally could not hurt them. However, as time passed, more and more monsters besieged them. After Shen Yueshuang killed more than a dozen second-level monsters, her breath quickly weakened and returned to the level of the foundation-building period. She could not even stand steadily, and her body softened, and she was about to fall backwards.
Ye Tonghua stretched out his right hand to block and support Shen Yueshuang.
Shen Yueshuang turned her head and glanced at Ye Tonghua without saying anything.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, dozens of monsters rushed up.
A cold light flashed in Ye Tonghua's eyes. He flipped his right hand and a two-foot-long silver dagger flew out and landed in his hand. The sword rang loudly, and a white sword light about a foot long burst out from the blade of the silver dagger, slashing towards the void around him.
With a flash of silver light, a crescent-shaped silver sword energy over thirty feet long flew out and slashed towards the monster.
A scream was heard, and the claws of the red crabs in the front were all broken when they touched the silver sword energy. The silver sword energy rampaged through the group of monsters, cutting off the forelimbs of seven second-level monsters in a row before disappearing.
The crabs that lost their claws were lying on the ground, and it was difficult for them to move. They were not dead yet, but they were blocking the way of other monsters.
Ye Tonghua slashed with five swords in a row. Five crescent-shaped sword lights cut off the limbs of the monsters in the front row, leaving them lying on the ground struggling and blocking the way of the monsters behind.
After doing all this, Ye Tonghua looked pale. Obviously, to perform this secret technique, a large amount of mana was consumed. With his current level of cultivation, he could not perform it too many times.
Generally speaking, only fourth-level monsters will open up their spiritual intelligence, and second-level monsters have no intelligence. A large number of second-level monsters rushed in from all directions, directly stepping on the monsters that had lost their limbs and attacking Han Changming and others.
"You have made a lot of contributions, you can come back now."
A majestic female voice sounded. As soon as the words fell, a sound of breaking through the air came from behind. Hundreds of blue water arrows flew over the heads of Han Changming and others, piercing the bodies of dozens of second-level monsters.
Han Changming and others covered each other and retreated back to the city wall.
"Friends Ye and Shen, you did a good job. Go down and heal your wounds! The beast tide won't last long."
True Man Chi Jiao said with a smile, asking them to go down as cultivators.
"Yes, Senior Li."
Ye Tonghua and others agreed in unison and walked towards the city wall.
There were several foundation-building cultivators distributing resources for cultivating immortals. This time, in addition to two thousand spirit stones, there was also a bottle of Qi-replenishing pills.
Unlike the previous few days, the martial law has been lifted and there are pedestrians strolling on the streets, but not in large numbers.
Han Changming and Ye Xin came to Guangyuanju. The door of Guangyuanju was wide open and there were more than a dozen customers choosing puppet beasts.
Han Delei was very happy to see them and invited them to the backyard.
"Chang Ming, Ye Xin, you just came back from the front line? Are you okay?"
A beast tide broke out, and Master Jinlong summoned the cultivators in Jinlong City to resist the beast tide. Han Delei also went to the front line. With the help of the puppet beast, he did not suffer any injuries.
The beast tide has not yet receded, causing prices in Jinlong City to rise, especially healing pills and powerful talismans and magical instruments. Puppet beasts are also very popular. The puppet beasts refined by Han Changying are in short supply. It takes at least a month and a half to refine a second-level puppet beast. Guangyuanju has some stock, but due to the high demand, the stock is almost sold out.
During this beast tide, Guangyuanju attracted a large number of repeat customers with the help of puppet beasts and elixirs.
"I suffered some minor injuries. Nothing serious. Where are Uncle Daoluo and Uncle Daoxiu? Are they okay?"
The defense of the Qianyang Armor is relatively strong. Han Changming's injuries were not serious, but Ye Xin's injuries were more serious. If Ye Tonghua had not come to the rescue, she would probably have died. At that time, Han Changming was entangled by a monster and could not take care of her.
"Thanks to Chang Ying for refining a lot of second-level puppet beasts, with the help of the puppet beasts, we are not in trouble, but many second-level puppet beasts were scrapped."
Han Delei felt sad when he thought of the scrapped second-level puppet beast. It takes a long time to refine a second-level puppet beast, and he didn't know whether it could be repaired.
"If the puppet beast is scrapped, then it's scrapped. As long as the person is fine, we can just refine it again."
Ye Xin smiled and said that this time on the front line, she wanted to become a formation master even more eagerly. If she had learned the formation, she and Han Changming would not be so embarrassed.
Han Changming and Ye Xin's spiritual awareness is comparable to that of the late foundation building stage. They can control four second-order puppet beasts at a time, but that would be too conspicuous. Controlling one or two puppet beasts would not bring any advantage, so they did not use puppet beasts to fight the enemy.
After chatting for a while, Han Changming and Ye Xin said goodbye and left, returning to their residence to rest.
After returning to their residence, they each went into a secret room and took pills to heal their wounds.
Han Changming sat down cross-legged, took out a Qi-replenishing pill and swallowed it. The pill melted in his mouth and began to flow through his meridians.
He had an illusion, as if he was soaking in a hot spring, feeling extremely comfortable.
Three days passed quickly. Han Changming walked out of the secret room. His injuries had healed. Ye Xin was still in the secret room. Her injuries were more serious and she would probably come out later.
Han Changming took out a communication disk from his arms and typed a spell. Wei Yuan's voice suddenly rang out: "Hu Daoyou, I'm Wei Yuan. Do you still remember me?"
"Fellow Daoist Wei, you are joking. Of course I remember you. What advice do you have for me?"
"See you at Yuchun Tower. How about I talk to you about something? The beast tide has receded, and all the shops have resumed business."
Han Changming nodded and said, "Okay, I'll come over later."
"It's settled. I'll wait for you in the private room on the third floor of Yuchun Tower."
After putting away the communication disk, Han Changming looked thoughtful. Wei Yuan suddenly contacted him. What was his purpose? Third-level spiritual water? Or Amethyst Flying Scorpio
He didn't know Wei Yuan's purpose, so he could only remind himself to be more careful.
A quarter of an hour later, Ye Xin still hadn't come out, so Han Changming left his residence and went straight to Yuchun Tower.
Yuchun Tower, a private room on the third floor.
Wei Yuan and Lin Wan'er were drinking tea and chatting. Wei Yuan was in a good mood and his face was full of smiles.
"Brother Wei, are you sure that's a mutant spirit insect? You're not seeing things!"
Lin Wan'er asked curiously. The Ten Thousand Beasts Sect is good at repelling insects and controlling beasts, but there are too many spirit beasts and insects in the world of immortal cultivation, and there are also some mutated spirit beasts and insects. The Ten Thousand Beasts Sect's classics only record the spirit beasts and insects that have appeared in the world of immortal cultivation. There are not many records of mutated spirit beasts and insects, mainly because the direction of the spirit beasts' mutation is uncertain.
When two different kinds of spirits mate, the offspring born may be an ordinary spirit beast or a mutated spirit beast. No one can predict how the mutation will be.
"I'm not wrong, Junior Sister, you know that in order to hatch the Void Essence Bug, I have searched all the books of our sect that record the spirit insects. I can confirm that his spirit insect is definitely a new species. As for its potential, it's hard to say. As for the lightning spirit insect, it can't be that bad."
Wei Yuan vowed that a new species meant almost no natural enemies, at least before the species became rampant, there would be no natural enemies. Many monks of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect had no hope of breaking through, and spent a lot of time and energy cultivating new species. Spirit insects could easily be wiped out in a battle. Therefore, the monks of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect mainly cultivated new species of spirit beasts, and few people cultivated spirit insects. However, Wei Yuan just liked to cultivate spirit insects.
"I don't know if he is willing to sell it. Ever since our uncle Shangguan passed away, our Hundred Insects lineage has become increasingly weaker, and the sect's resources are mostly tilted towards the Ten Thousand Beasts lineage, followed by the Thousand Birds lineage."
Lin Wan'er sighed and said, the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect is divided into five branches, and the disciples in each branch learn different things. The Ten Thousand Beasts, Thousand Birds and Hundred Insects are the foundation of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect. The Hundred Insects branch was once the strongest branch of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect.
"Sitting in meditation? You're wrong. Master Shangguan didn't sit in meditation. Master Shangguan loved spiritual insects. He took advantage of his position to mate the Golden Horned Immortal from the Hundred Insects lineage with a certain spiritual insect in order to breed a new species. As a result, the Golden Horned Immortal was seriously injured. He was afraid of being punished, so he left the sect overnight. Because the Golden Horned Immortal had always been taken care of by Master Shangguan, no one noticed anything unusual at first. When they did, Master Shangguan had already disappeared. In order to save face, the sect said that he sat in meditation. It is precisely because the Golden Horned Immortal was seriously injured that our Hundred Insects lineage has gradually declined and its status is no longer as good as before."
The Golden Horned Immortal that Wei Yuan mentioned was a fourth-order spirit insect that took thousands of years and several generations of hard work to cultivate to the fourth order. However, the Jindan cultivator who was taking care of the Golden Horned Immortal took advantage of his position and mated the Golden Horned Immortal with some kind of spirit insect, causing the Golden Horned Immortal to suffer serious damage. Fearing punishment, this cultivator fled the sect, but that was more than a thousand years ago.
"Brother Wei, do you suspect that his spirit insect is a descendant of the Golden Horned Immortal?"
Wei Yuan hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "I do have this suspicion, but I'm not sure. After all, no one knows what kind of insect Uncle Shangguan used to breed the Golden Horned Immortal. Over the years, Grandmaster Jin has also tried to breed other insects with the Golden Horned Immortal to cultivate new insects. Unfortunately, the eggs could not hatch and were all dead. But no matter what, lightning insects are few and far between. It would be best if we could get his insect."
"Okay, let's stop talking. He's probably going to be here soon."
After a while, there was a knock on the door, and Han Changming's voice suddenly rang out: "Friend Wei, I'm here."
"Friend Hu, come in! I have been waiting for you for a long time."
Han Changming pushed open the door and walked in. He smiled at the two of them, said hello, and said with a smile: "Friend Wei, Fairy Lin, long time no see."
The beast tide has receded, and the Golden Dragon City has returned to prosperity, but the price paid is not small. Two Jindan cultivators have died and three have been seriously injured.
"Friend Hu, hurry up, Junior Sister Lin and I were just talking about you!"
Wei Yuan's tone was so warm that people who didn't know the truth would think they were good friends for many years!
"Yes! We didn't expect that Brother Hu raised so many second-level spirit beasts. This is rare."
Lin Wan'er smiled and replied, she was telling the truth, ordinary foundation-building cultivators simply did not have the financial resources to cultivate multiple second-level spirit beasts and insects.
"I don't know how to drive away insects or ward off beasts. I'm just raising them casually."
Han Changming said modestly, but he became very alert. If someone showed kindness to him without any reason, he was either a traitor or a thief.
Given Wei Yuan and Lin Wan'er's identities, there was no need to say these words to him.
Wei Yuan took out a green porcelain bottle, placed it on the table, and said, "Friend Hu, the larva of the Five-Colored Phoenix Butterfly is almost growing to the second stage! I have a bottle of beast spirit pills here, you can use all of them to feed a larva. The larva has a high chance of being promoted to the second stage."
"Beast Spirit Pill? What do you mean, Fellow Daoist Wei?"
Han Changming frowned. If he wanted to obtain the Beast Spirit Pill, he would either have to buy it at an auction or make a reservation many years in advance.
A bottle of Beast Spirit Pill is worth one thousand spirit stones. If it is sold at an auction, the price will often exceed one thousand spirit stones. Even so, it is still in short supply.
He wouldn't believe that Wei Yuan was so kind as to give him a bottle of Beast Spirit Pill for free.
"I want to buy some spiritual water from you, the same kind you sold me last time."
Han Changming smiled bitterly and explained, "Fellow Daoist Hu, I don't have that much spiritual water. It was sold to me by a casual cultivator. I haven't seen him for a few years."
He made up his mind not to sell the spiritual water easily anymore.
After hearing this, Wei Yuan showed a disappointed expression on his face. He rolled his eyes and said, "Friend Hu, the last time you were fighting monsters on the front line, I saw that you had a second-level lightning spirit insect. Can you take it out and let me see it?"
"I'm sorry, we teamed up with Fellow Daoist Ye to kill the monster a few days ago, and Lingchong's hand was injured."
Han Changming tactfully refused. He finally understood that Wei Yuan’s goal was not the third-level spiritual water, but the thunder rhinoceros worm.
Han Changming was puzzled. The Amethyst Flying Scorpion was a rare insect on the list of rare insects in the world, and its ranking was not low. Wei Yuan was not interested in the Amethyst Flying Scorpion, but was actually interested in the Thunder Rhinoceros Insect. Could it be that the Thunder Rhinoceros Insect was special
The layman watches the excitement, while the expert watches the details. The Ten Thousand Beasts Sect is good at expelling insects and taming beasts. Wei Yuan might have figured out the true origin of the Thunder Rhinoceros Insect.
The fact that Wei Yuan is interested in the Thunder Rhinoceros Bug shows that it has great potential, and Han Changming will definitely not sell the Thunder Rhinoceros Bug to Wei Yuan.
