Led by the golden-eyed beast, Han Benfu came to its nest.
The entrance to the cave is not big, but there is a different world inside.
After turning around several times, Han Benfu came to an underground cave of several acres in size. A huge black whale was lying on the ground, motionless.
The black whale's body was covered in blood and there was a huge bloody hole in its abdomen.
"Thunder Whale Beast!"
Han Benfu said in surprise that decades ago, they went to Jinjiao Island to celebrate the Han family's birthday. On the way back, they encountered a fourth-level thunder whale beast. Han Changming stayed behind to cover their retreat and was seriously injured by the thunder whale beast. It took him a while to recover.
She looked carefully and shook her head. This Thunder Whale Beast was smaller than the one they encountered before. It was impossible to think about it. They encountered a fourth-level Thunder Whale Beast decades ago. It was impossible for a fourth-level Thunder Whale Beast to die decades later.
"The clan leader said that a material called lightning-inducing stone might be born in the body of the Thunder Whale Beast. I wonder if it exists."
Han Benfu talked to herself as she walked quickly forward. She endured the stench and searched for the lightning-inducing stone in the rotten belly of the thunder whale beast. Unfortunately, she did not find any.
"What a pity, there is no lightning stone."
Han Benfu sighed, a look of regret on her face.
roar!
The golden-eyed beast let out a strange roar, and countless golden arcs of electricity emerged from its body surface.
"Wait, you didn't swallow the lightning-absorbing stone! No wonder."
Han Benfu looked at the golden-eyed beast with an expression of sudden enlightenment on her face.
There are not many thunder-attributed monsters, and most of the monsters in the outer sea are water-attributed monsters. The Golden-Eyed Beast has mutated and just happened to master thunder-attributed magical powers. Thinking of the corpse of the fourth-level Thunder Whale Beast, Han Benfu immediately understood.
The Golden-Eyed Beast accidentally discovered the corpse of the Thunder Whale Beast. It swallowed the lightning-attracting stone in the Thunder Whale Beast's body and slowly mutated.
What puzzled her was how could there be a dead Thunder Whale Beast here? She observed carefully and found that the Thunder Whale Beast's body was covered with scars and obvious signs of burns.
She had a guess that a Nascent Soul cultivator was hunting a fourth-order Thunder Whale Beast and used a fire-attributed magic weapon to injure the Thunder Whale Beast, but unfortunately the beast escaped.
She did not dare to be careless, and she threw out a flying knife with a flashing red light and carefully cut off the skin of the Thunder Whale Beast. The corpse of the fourth-level monster was full of treasures, which was just right for Han Zhangxiang to refine weapons.
It took Han Benfu nearly half an hour to deal with the corpse of the Thunder Whale Beast.
"You're lucky! You actually came across the corpse of a fourth-level thunder whale beast, and swallowed the thunder-attracting stone in its body, causing a mutation."
Han Benfu touched the golden-eyed beast's head and praised it.
The golden-eyed beast let out a low growl, as if it was responding to Han Benfu.
Han Benfu carefully checked the cave and found nothing else, so she brought the golden-eyed beast back to the surface of the sea.
Han Zhangxiang didn't say anything, and Zhu Mingming didn't ask any more questions.
"Fellow Daoist Zhu, this time it's all thanks to you, otherwise we wouldn't know there's a third-level golden-eyed beast here. But I hope you can keep the fact that the golden-eyed beast is a mutant monster a secret."
Han Benfu said sincerely that when fighting against the enemy, the golden-eyed beast can easily inflict heavy damage to the enemy. If the enemy knows that the golden-eyed beast is a mutated monster, then it will be hard to say.
"Of course, Fairy Han, don't worry, Zhu is not the kind of person who likes to gossip."
Zhu Mingming agreed readily.
"Fellow Daoist Zhu, our two families are relatives by marriage, so it is only natural for us to help each other. After we return to Purple Moon Island, I will give you a portion of Golden Elixir and Jade Liquid. If you encounter a high-level monster again in the future, be sure to notify us."
Han Zhangxiang said with a smile that the golden elixir and jade liquid were both a reward and a hush money.
One piece of news is that it cannot be sold for 300,000 spirit stones, but the value of a mutated third-order golden-eyed beast cannot be measured by 300,000 spirit stones.
Zhu Mingming was overjoyed and said yes repeatedly.
If it were him, he wouldn't want too many people to know that he had a mutated golden-eyed beast. Unfortunately, his strength was too low, otherwise he would have dealt with the golden-eyed beast himself.
"Okay, it's getting late, let's go back!"
Han Zhangxiang and the other two transformed into three beams of light and returned along the way they came.
Half a month later, they returned to Ziyue Island.
Han Zhangxiang gave Zhu Mingming a portion of elixir as a reward. Zhu Mingming thanked him again and again and left Ziyue Island with a smile on his face.
"Benfu, what good things are there in the golden-eyed beast's lair?"
Han Zhangxiang asked, with a hint of anticipation in his eyes.
Han Benfu told him the truth, took out a green storage bag, handed it to Han Zhangxiang, and said, "Chief, this is the hide, bones, and eyeballs of the Thunder Whale Beast. I will keep the meat to feed the Golden Eyed Beast."
"A fourth-order thunder whale beast! Haha, good, great, I can try to refine a thunder attribute magic weapon."
Han Zhangxiang was overjoyed and looked excited.
"By the way, clan leader, is Fifth Uncle in danger?"
Han Benfu asked about Han Debiao's whereabouts, with a hint of worry in her eyes.
"As long as he doesn't run into a Nascent Soul cultivator, De Biao shouldn't be in danger. May our ancestors bless him. I hope that good things will happen to him! By the way, Benfu, don't release the golden-eyed beast easily. Keep it as a life-saving trump card."
The third-grade, top-quality golden-eyed beast was proficient in thunder-related magical powers. If it hadn't been pregnant and hadn't been in the formation, Han Zhangxiang wouldn't have been able to injure it so easily.
"I see, Patriarch, I think so too."
Han Benfu agreed.
After chatting for a while, Han Zhangxiang ordered them to leave, as he couldn't wait to go back to refine his weapon.
After returning to Qinghulu Island, she came to a quiet green-tiled courtyard and sent a sound transmission note.
Not long after, the courtyard door opened and Han Benmin walked out.
Han Benmin had just returned from his travels not long ago and was currently in the late stage of foundation building.
"Sister Benfu, you haven't been here for a long time, please come in."
Han Benmin invited Han Benfu into his residence. A cobblestone path divided the yard into two halves. On both sides of the path were exotic flowers and plants, and a large number of magical butterflies and bees were dancing in the sea of flowers.
There is a three-story simple bamboo building right in front of the yard, and two emerald green pythons are crawling on the eaves of the building to bask in the sun.
Han Benfu and Han Benmin have been friends since they were young, and they both like spiritual insects and animals.
Han Benmin invited Han Benfu into the bamboo house and served her tea.
After drinking a few cups of tea, Han Benfu asked about the reproduction of spiritual beasts.
"Spiritual beasts are reproducing? Sister Benfu, your spirit beast is pregnant?"
Han Benmin asked curiously.
Han Benfu nodded, patted the spirit beast bag, and the golden-eyed beast flew out and landed in front of her.
"This is a third-grade, top-grade golden-eyed beast. It seems to be injured."
Han Benmin looked at the golden-eyed beast with envy as if it were a rare treasure.
"We originally wanted to kill it, but it was pregnant and surrendered on its own initiative, so I placed a restriction on it. Strangely enough, after I placed the restriction on it, it became very obedient to me."
Han Benfu's face was full of curiosity.
"It's pregnant and is probably about to give birth. Otherwise it wouldn't be so docile. After all, it's a spirit beast that recognized its master halfway through. But this is also a good thing for you. Before it gives birth, you should take good care of it and gain its favor. Spirit beasts can't talk, but they know who is good to them and who is not. All things have spirits."
Han Benmin explained that all things have spirituality, especially pregnant monsters.
Han Benfu consulted for more than half an hour and finally breathed a sigh of relief when she learned that the golden-eyed beast was not seriously injured.
"Oh, Sister Benfu, I got a 700-year-old blood ginseng when I was traveling. Blood ginseng can replenish qi and blood, which is just right for it."
Han Benmin took out an exquisite green jade box and handed it to Han Benfu.
Han Benfu thanked him, took the green jade box, opened it and saw a blood-red ginseng inside, emitting a strong and exotic fragrance.
The golden-eyed beast smelled the strange fragrance of the blood ginseng and let out a low growl.
Han Benfu took out the blood ginseng and fed it to the golden-eyed beast.
After the golden-eyed beast swallowed the blood ginseng, it became drowsy.
It is pregnant and its injuries have not healed yet. It is estimated that it needs to slowly refine the medicine to heal the wounds.
Han Benfu put it back into the spirit beast bag and left Han Benmin's residence.
Half a quarter of an hour later, Han Benfu returned to her residence.
Her mansion was a manor with four entrances and exits. There was a five-acre lake in the main courtyard. She released the golden-eyed beast and found some weeds. The golden-eyed beast lay in the thick grass and fell asleep.
After settling the golden-eyed beast, Han Benfu came to Han Changming's residence. Han Changming and Ye Xue were both in seclusion practicing, and only Ye Xin was free.
"Benfu, I heard from the tribe leader that you subdued a golden-eyed beast."
Ye Xin said with a smile.
"Thanks to the help of the clan leader, otherwise I would not be able to subdue it. By the way, Auntie, has Dad not come out of seclusion yet?"
Han Benfu asked about Han Changming's recent situation. Han Changming had been in seclusion for more than 20 years.
"Not yet. Your father will probably have to cultivate to the great perfection of Jindan before he can come out. I hope Uncle Wu is okay. There is a destroyed ancient teleportation array in the treasure hunting area. Uncle Wu and Fairy Liang are both missing. I hope they are okay!"
Ye Xin sighed at the end of her speech. Han Debiao was a powerful fighter of the Han family. His sudden disappearance was a great loss to the Han family.
Han Benfu said seriously: "Fifth Uncle has great magical powers. I believe he will be fine. Maybe he and Fairy Liang will really be teleported to Zhongtian Continent and come back to bring me an uncle or an aunt in the future!"
Ye Xin smiled slightly, nodded, and said, "It's rare for you to come back. If you have nothing else to do, stay a little longer. I've asked Ben Yong to go to Haoran City. You should also practice well and don't slack off in your practice. Your father is very concerned about your path."
"I see, ma'am. I'll go back first and come see you another day."
Han Benfu agreed obediently and turned to leave.
······
Zhongtian Continent, deep in the Qingling Mountains.
A dense green bamboo forest. As far as the eye can see, the place is full of green bamboos that are over a hundred feet high.
In an open area, two green mantises about ten feet tall surrounded a giant ape with a pointed chin and monkey cheeks.
The two green mantises have small heads, bloated abdomens, golden eyeballs, and a pair of sickle-like mantis arms crossed in front of their bodies. Behind them, under a huge bamboo that is as thick as a person's embrace, there are two light golden Ganoderma lucidum. There are several green spiritual patterns on the surface of the Ganoderma lucidum, which emit a strange fragrance.
Han Debiao and Liang Youshan stood in the distance and did not take any action.
Han Debiao held the broken spirit stick in his hand, which was covered with brown blood. There were also many brown blood stains on his clothes. Liang Youshan's face was slightly pale and he was sweating profusely.
After staying in Yinquan Valley for several months, they had a clear understanding of the Qingling Mountains.
The Qingling Mountains are vast and rich in resources. They grow a large number of spiritual medicines and many powerful monsters, attracting many cultivators to hunt monsters here.
They don't want to rely on others, and plan to be self-reliant, hunting monsters to earn resources for cultivation.
The two green mantises each made a strange sound, and then they flapped their wings lightly and flew into the air, dozens of feet above the ground.
I saw them waving their mantis arms forward, a green light flashed, a sharp sound of breaking through the air was heard, and dense green wind blades flew out and went straight towards the powerful golden-backed ape.
The powerful golden-backed ape did not dodge or evade. A yellow light flashed on its body, and a thick yellow earth armor emerged close to its body.
Dense green wind blades hit the yellow earth armor, making a muffled "ding ding" sound.
The green wind blade was like a tickle, and the Mighty Golden-backed Ape was not hurt at all. The yellow earth armor on its body was full of bumps, but soon, after a burst of yellow light appeared on the surface of the Mighty Golden-backed Ape's body, the scars on the surface of the yellow earth armor disappeared, as if they had never appeared.
