A long rainbow flashed across the forest and suddenly disappeared from the end of the line of sight. Although the figure was a little hasty, its speed was definitely not slow.
Ouyang Ming glanced at this arc and then looked away.
He took a few dozen feet in one step and came to Xue Boren's side. A healing elixir slipped out of his long sleeve, and he handed it over, saying softly: "Senior, you are seriously injured. Heal your injuries first. I will protect you."
Xue Boren glanced at Ouyang Ming, his eyes were extremely complicated, and there was even a hint of resentment in his eyes. He secretly thought in his heart that this old man has really lived like a dog in his life, and he is actually worse than a boy in his early twenties.
Could this be a genius? Not only has his formation cultivation reached a state where gods and ghosts are unpredictable, but his martial arts cultivation has also reached a state that countless people cannot reach in their lifetimes.
Xue Xuanle smiled softly and looked at Ouyang Ming. She was very handsome and her eyes were extremely bright.
Ou Yangming waved his wrist, and countless phantom arrays flew from all directions. After putting away the phantom arrays, he glanced at the death energy in the sky and thought to himself, even if I don't control the formations in the phantom array, This casual cultivator can take advantage of this time to break out of the formation, which is considered a skill.
While he was thinking, Wu Xuning cupped his fists and said, "Thank you, Brother Yu, for saving your life!"
Previously he was called Brother Tianrui, but now he is directly called Brother Yu. It can be seen that this young master of the Wu family is also a person who understands current affairs and knows how to adapt.
Ouyang Ming chuckled, shook his head and said, "It's a small effort, nothing worth mentioning."
Wu Xuning's face was extremely solemn and he said in a deep voice: "Brother Yu, this matter is a trivial matter for you, but for me, it is a top priority that affects your wealth and life." After a pause, he said sincerely; "The hunting conference is over. Afterwards, I will serve as a host and organize a banquet, hoping that Brother Yu will show his respect. "
After saying this, he bent down and bowed deeply. His attitude was extremely sincere and irreproachable.
This is Wu Xuning's wisdom. Only by giving can feelings deepen, and for men, the best place to deepen feelings is at the wine table.
Ouyang Ming waved his hand gently and said, "Brother Wu, you don't have to be like this!"
As Wu Xuning said, this matter was just a piece of cake for him.
Turning his eyes and seeming to think of something, Ouyang Ming asked in a low voice: "Brother Wu, I wonder why these two are chasing you so hard?"
Wu Xuning's expression was complicated. After being silent for a long time, he said in a hoarse voice: "Deng Changfeng wants to take away the bloody crow, and Shu Ya..." He paused, his face looked a little strange, and finally sighed quietly and said: "I'm not afraid of Brother Yu's jokes, either. She said that my yang was still strong and she wanted to arrest me for some replenishment. In addition, they also wanted to rob me of a weapon-making material."
"Materials for refining?" Ouyang Ming's voice rose a few decibels.
"Not bad!" Wu Xuning nodded, then groped around in his arms and took out something that was as white as fish scales.
Ouyang Ming's eyes narrowed and he breathed quickly: "Dragon scales?" Even his heart started to flutter.
"Dragon scales?" The remaining three people exclaimed at the same time. In their hearts, anything tainted with the word dragon is something extraordinary.
Xue Boren forced down the shock in his heart, cleared his throat, and asked in a weak voice: "Are they really dragon scales? Are there really dragons in this world?"
Ouyang Ming sat down on the rotten leaves, shrugged, and replied: "There are indeed dragons, but the dragon has only the last trace of mottled dragon blood left. It can only be regarded as a side branch, but it is also very precious. The scales of the dragon have been around for thousands of years. If it falls off once, it is already one of the top weapon-refining materials in the spiritual world. It is rare to find. "
Ouyang Ming's eyes flickered twice, he smiled shyly and said, "Brother Wu, I have some unkind feelings!"
Now that Wu Xuning took out this thing, he was already prepared in his heart, and he laughed heartily and said: "Brother Yu, it's okay to say it."
"I want to exchange dragon scales to refine a spear. Brother Wu, don't worry. Whether it's spiritual stones or spiritual herbs, you will be satisfied." Ouyang Ming looked at Wu Xuning, his voice extremely sincere.
"No matter what Brother Yu said, you saved my life. As long as you want it, just take it." With that, he handed over the dragon scales with both hands.
Ouyang Ming also refused to let Wu Xuning suffer. After putting away the dragon scales, he took out a space bag and handed it over.
There were many dazzling cultivation resources in this space bag. Wu Xuning used his mental power to sweep them away, knowing that he would not suffer any loss. Without any words, he raised his hand and put the space bag away, remembering this favor deeply in his heart.
Seeing that the two of them had reached an agreement, Xue Boren said softly: "Brother Tianrui wants to refine a spear. I know a blacksmith in Huixun City who can easily forge silver equipment. After the hunting is over, I will take my brother to visit. If If you have the opportunity, I will have an extra weapon at my disposal."
Ouyang Ming had a strange look on his face and sighed softly: "Thank you, senior, but... but no need, I also have some experience in blacksmithing."
The corner of Xue Boren's mouth twitched, and he was a little confused.
I was filled with emotion, how old is he, how could he know so much, and how strong does the “slight dabbling” mentioned this time have to be...
Xue Xuanle kept circling her fingers in front of her flat belly, and the light in her eyes was extremely bright.
Half an hour later, the group rushed to the outside again.
As for Ouyang Ming's hidden cultivation, both parties had a tacit understanding and neither mentioned nor asked.
The four of them cooperated with each other and kept hunting low-level ferocious beasts in the periphery.
At night, the stars are falling. The snow outside the Death Forest has begun to melt, and the grass and trees have begun to sprout. The breath of spring is spreading. However, in the Death Forest, it is like a forgotten world, without any change. The woods are dark and everywhere. There was an air of death in the air.
In a cave, a pile of firewood was lit. Although it was not bright enough, it could still keep warm. Ouyang Ming and his party sat around it.
Xue Xuanle kept taking out the blood crystals from the space bag with a smile.
The voice was clear and sweet: "One, two, three..." She finished counting, squinting her eyes and said: "There are three peak blood crystals, five mid-level blood crystals, and one blood crystal after the mutation, which is worth Even higher, as for the mid-level and low-level blood crystals, there are actually dozens of them. This time, we will definitely win the title, right?" She asked tentatively, her eyes shining like stars.
Wu Xuning laughed dumbly and joked: "This leader must be a pony tied to a big tree - very stable."
Xue Boren took over the words: "Of course there is no suspense about the position of the leader. The key is how many blood crystals are appropriate."
The light in Ouyang Ming's eyes gathered in vain, and he said in a deep voice, "What do you mean, senior? Is there any secret behind this?"
Xue Boren glanced at him thoughtfully and replied: "That's natural, otherwise the rewards from Tianwai Pavilion would be given out for no reason? To put it bluntly, they are also exchanged for blood crystals. Of course, whether it is from aristocratic families or casual cultivators, They are all happy. Not only did they get useful materials, but they also gained a great reputation. So, here, we have to control a certain degree. If the blood crystal is too thick, we will suffer a loss. If it is too thin, we will suffer a loss. Until we reach the position of leader, we need to think about this, but fortunately our blood crystals haven’t been scratched on the Tianyuan Stone yet, so we can adapt accordingly when the time comes.”
Ouyang Ming nodded thoughtfully and said nothing.
The next day, the morning light broke, and the earth was dyed golden with golden light.
Under the Shuixuan Monument, there were tens of thousands of people gathered around, their gazes blazing.
Suddenly, a burst of white light lit up, completely suppressing the morning light.
There were crowds of people around, and everyone was looking at the name on the stone tablet with burning eyes.
"Today is the last day of the hunting conference. It seems that the victory or defeat has been determined."
"This... name is Crimson. Is this the blood crystal obtained from hunting a peak ferocious beast?" A casual cultivator breathed rapidly and spoke in a deep voice.
"Yes, the peak ferocious beast has not been hunted for decades. I didn't expect Wang Haobin to succeed this time. It seems that there is no doubt about the first place this time." The speaker has an extraordinary temperament, and he is a handsome young man at first glance.
"Hiss..." After this voice came out, there were bursts of inhaling sounds. It turned out to be a peak ferocious beast. How is this possible? You must know that the highest cultivation level in the hunting conference is only a high-level spiritual person. Now someone actually hunts a peak ferocious beast as a high-level spiritual person. No matter what method this person uses, this is still a peak ferocious beast. , how can it not be surprising.
Because he had the blood crystal of the peak ferocious beast in his pocket, Wang Haobin's ranking was far ahead, much higher than the second place, and he had a vague feeling of being the best in the world.
First place, Wang Haobin, 361 blood crystals!
Second place, Li Tianyu, 278 blood crystals!
Third place, Su Tianqian, 275 blood crystals!
Fourth place, Chen Botian, 253 blood crystals!
…
"Master Wang, congratulations! Nephew Haobin was able to hunt a peak ferocious beast. It seems that the leader of this hunting competition is your Wang family." Chen Danbo chuckled, with a strong look of envy in his eyes. .
Although Wang Weinian deliberately concealed it, the joy in his eyes could not fade away. He waved his long sleeves gently and sighed: "Brother Chen, nephew Botian's grades are not bad either."
Chen Danbo smiled bitterly: "Although he is not bad compared to the others, compared with the Wang family, the gap is too big! Just one blood crystal of a high-level mutated ferocious beast is worth countless low-level and mid-level ferocious beasts. The blood crystal of a beast, and besides, this time, the Wang family also hunted down a blood crystal of a peak ferocious beast, which is completely different." He shook his head with a slight emotion on his face.
The boulder in Wang Weinian's heart was relieved, and he thought to himself, now that it has reached this level, it is almost certain that the Wang family will come out on top.
At this time, someone finally saw Yu Tianrui's name, but it was not a compliment, but a ridicule.
"Look, it's been a month, and there are still people who haven't even hunted a single blood crystal."
Everyone looked at the sound, and sure enough, there was a dim name under the water-hanging monument.
