The sea breeze whistled past, carrying a hint of saltiness.
After half an hour, the Qingfeng Gourd stopped over a small island.
The island is not big, and there is a lake of several acres in the center.
There was a row of footprints on the beach, but no fishermen were seen.
"The evil python is in the lake. As soon as we get close to the lake, it will rush out." The middle-aged man pointed at the lake below and said, his eyes full of fear.
Han Changming controlled the Qingfeng Gourd and slowly landed it near the lake.
He made a hand gesture, and a dazzling white light flashed from his right hand. He slashed at the empty space over the lake, and a large piece of white light flew out and hit the lake water.
The area hit by the white light froze quickly and the ice layer spread rapidly.
A first-level low-grade spell called Freezing, which can freeze an area. The range depends on the caster's skill level.
“Boom!”
With a loud bang, a large amount of lake water splashed, and a huge blue python rushed out of the lake.
Its waist is as thick as a bucket, and its body is covered with fist-sized blue scales with some linear patterns on them.
"A first-order, low-grade monster!" Han Changming breathed a sigh of relief. With his cultivation level at the fourth level of Qi Refining, it should be no problem for him to deal with a first-order, low-grade monster.
The Han family has someone dedicated to teaching fighting skills, and the clan members who are sent out to do things will receive special training for a period of time. Han Changming has practiced with his fellow clansmen and fought with puppet beasts. He has certain fighting experience and is not a rookie in the world of cultivating immortals.
Seeing the blue python, the middle-aged man's legs trembled, his face turned pale, and his eyes were full of fear.
"Find a safe place to hide first, get rid of this monster, and then I will take you back."
After hearing what Han Changming said, the middle-aged man felt relieved and ran away.
Han Changming threw out a yellow flying knife and slashed it at the blue python, but it failed to even cut off its scales. Instead, it angered the blue python.
The blue python opened its bloody mouth and sprayed out several transparent water arrows towards Han Changming.
Han Changming was prepared. He lightly tapped the ground with his toes and floated behind him like a breeze, and the blue python's attack missed.
He raised his hand and with a "puff" sound, a red fireball the size of an egg suddenly appeared in his palm and quickly grew larger.
After the red fireball grew to the size of a watermelon, it flew out and hit the blue python.
One fireball certainly could not kill the blue python, but Han Changming threw more than a dozen red fireballs in a row, which annoyed the blue python.
It let out a strange roar and rushed out of the lake.
It is two meters long with a bulging belly. It looks a bit clumsy, but its body is very flexible.
"I'm afraid you won't come out." Han Changming's mouth curled up slightly.
He practiced earth-attributed skills, and the blue python was a water-attributed monster, and earth overcomes water.
He controlled the yellow flying knife to chop at the blue python's glasses. Although he failed to kill the blue python, he also held it back. It didn't dare to be careless.
Han Changming took out five fireball talismans with a reluctant look on his face. These were five spirit stones!
He can cast fireball, but his casting speed is not fast enough to cause much damage to the blue python.
Magic is easy to learn but difficult to master. Generally speaking, magic is divided into four levels: entry level, minor success, major success and great perfection. A first-level spell can be learned in a few days. It will take at least a month to master minor success, several months to master major success, and more than half a year to master great perfection. This is still a first-level spell. If it is a second-level or even third-level spell, the casting time will be longer, and the practice time will also be longer, but the power will be greater.
For the same magic spell, the power when practiced to the entry level and the level of perfection is very different. It is said that there are cultivators who specialize in practicing magic, and they are called magic cultivators.
Han Changming spent two months practicing the Light Body Technique to the Great Perfection, and practiced the other spells to the Small Success at most.
Because magic is easy to learn but difficult to master, immortal cultivators will use talismans or magical instruments when fighting. Talismans are the most common items, but most talismans are disposable consumables.
Han Changming shook his wrist, and five fireball talismans flew out, turning into five red fireballs as big as five heads, smashing into the blue python.
Boom!
Three huge roars were heard, and half of the blue python's body was covered by red flames, and it let out a miserable roar.
Han Changming sacrificed a palm-sized yellow seal, which quickly grew to the size of a house.
The seal magic weapon is called the Mountain-Shaking Seal, a first-grade intermediate-quality magic weapon with relatively strong attack power. Its flaw is that it moves slowly. The blue python was eager to put out the flames on its body and did not notice that a huge yellow seal had reached its head.
"fall."
With a scream, the blue python's head was smashed into a pulp, deader than dead.
Han Changming looked a little excited. He had experience in fighting, but this was his first time hunting a monster.
He put away the two magic weapons and took out a palm-sized blue gourd, which instantly grew larger and flew over the lake.
The Han family planted a lot of gourd vines, and gourd magic tools are the most common things in the Han family.
A powerful suction force appeared out of nowhere, and a large amount of lake water rushed towards the blue gourd.
Before long, the blue gourd drained the lake dry, leaving not a single fish or shrimp.
Han Changming walked forward, threw out a yellow flying knife, and chopped at the mud at the bottom of the lake, but did not find the second monster.
This deserted island is not far from Hongxia Island. The Han family had already sent people to explore it. There are no spiritual veins on the island, nor are there any resources for cultivating immortals.
Logically speaking, without a spiritual vein, there would be no monsters on the island. Could it be that there are some spiritual creatures on the island? Or did the monsters come ashore from the bottom of the sea
If there are any spiritual objects or spiritual veins on the island, reporting them to the family will be a merit and can be exchanged for resources for cultivating immortals.
Han Changming suddenly remembered something and quickly returned to the demon python.
The demon python was too big. The space in his storage bag was only five feet, which was not enough to hold the body of the demon python.
The whole body of the monster is full of treasures. The skin and scales of the monster python can be used to refine weapons, the monster blood can be used to make cinnabar, and the monster meat can be eaten.
He used a yellow flying knife to cut open the python's belly and found the bloody bodies of five fishermen.
He chopped the python's body into several pieces. The storage bag only held most of the body, and the rest was tied up with a rope.
Han Changming sacrificed the Qingfeng Gourd and brought the middle-aged man back to Hongxia Island. He asked Han Dong to send people to collect the bodies and send more people to search the island.
Hundreds of fishermen searched every corner and turned the lake bottom upside down, but they found no other monsters, let alone spiritual veins or metal mines.
A few days later, Han Changming returned to Hongxia Island with hundreds of fishermen.
After returning to his residence, he took out the demon python meat from the storage bag and planned to cook it.
"Hey, is this a wood spirit stone?" Han Changming found a water-blue spirit stone in the demon python's gallbladder, emitting a pure spiritual energy fluctuation.
He picked up the green spirit stone and examined it carefully.
After a long while, Han Changming looked very excited.
The wooden spirit stone in his hand is a top-grade spirit stone. Spirit stones are divided into low-grade, medium-grade, high-grade and top-grade spirit stones according to the amount of spiritual energy stored in them. Most of the currency circulating in the market are low-grade spirit stones, and top-grade spirit stones are relatively rare.
Theoretically, one high-quality spirit stone can be exchanged for ten thousand spirit stones, but few people would do so. High-quality spirit stones are often used to set up formations.
"I'm rich. I'm really rich this time. I didn't expect that I could get a top-grade wood spirit stone." Han Changming muttered to himself, ecstatic.
You know, his annual salary is just over twenty spirit stones, and this top-grade spirit stone is equivalent to his salary for hundreds of years.
