【Chapter 183】Treasure Hunting Monkey
【Chapter 183】Treasure Hunting Monkey
After walking around in circles for about half an hour, Nangong Suhao suddenly felt a breath that shook his soul.
He stopped and couldn't help but curse: "Fuck!"
Then turn around and leave.
Zhuque, who was overjoyed at the prospect of obtaining rare treasures, heard Nangong Suhao's words. Just as he was about to ask him what was wrong with him, he sensed that Nangong Suhao's breath was moving away from him.
Confused, Zhuque turned around and saw Nangong Suhao's figure disappearing around the corner of the passage.
Suzaku: “???”
Zhuque immediately flapped its wings and flew up to catch up. But in an instant, it flew in front of Nangong Suhao. He turned around and glared at Nangong Suhao, saying unhappily, "Why are you running?"
Not only did he run away, he didn't even call out to him.
Why did it think Nangong Suhao was a reliable person at the beginning and took the initiative to sign a contract with Nangong Suhao?
How many times have I regretted being blind.
well!
“If you don’t run, are you going to become food for the monsters?” Nangong Suhao said unhappily.
He stretched out his hand and picked up Suzaku, then ran quickly out of the cave without stopping. Fortunately, he made a mark when he came. Otherwise you will definitely get lost in the numerous passages.
"Don't we have a teleportation talisman? Once we get the treasures inside, we can use it to leave."
“Haha.” Nangong Suhao laughed unceremoniously: “Do you know the level of the monsters guarding the natural treasures?”
"It's probably only level five!"
Suzaku felt a little guilty.
It forgot for a moment that it was not afraid of the pressure from high-level monsters, but forgot that Nangong Suhao could not withstand it. But it didn't intend to let Nangong Suhao take risks, and this must be explained.
"My original plan was that I would attract the attention of the demon beast guarding the treasures, and you would go and collect the treasures."
This actually comforted Nangong Suhao a little. It was good that Zhuque didn't want to trick him.
"The method you proposed is too risky. With our cultivation level, the success rate is less than 30%. If I can break through to the Nascent Soul stage within three years, we will come back here then."
Now, it’s better not to seek death.
“If you can get the rare treasures inside, you will definitely be able to break through to the Nascent Soul stage.” Zhuque was still determined to do it.
As long as Nangong Suhao breaks through the Nascent Soul stage, it can also be upgraded to level four. This way it can get rid of its current appearance. It really doesn't want to be mistaken for a chicken!
“I don’t want to die young.”
How could Nangong Suhao not know what was in Zhuque's mind? How could he rush to go when he knew there was no way back?
What the man and the beast didn't know was that a male cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage from Zhongxuan Continent was teleported to another cave five kilometers away from them.
This male cultivator has a compass in his hand that can be used to find treasures.
When he used the treasure-hunting compass to see that there were rare treasures nearby, he immediately stood up and walked in the direction indicated by the treasure-hunting compass.
Because Nangong Suhao left in the opposite direction of the male cultivator, the two did not meet.
Because the male cultivator did not know that the attack jade token given by the elders could not be used here. Therefore, even though he had only been in the cave for a short time when he sensed a terrifying aura inside, he had no intention of leaving.
Relying on the attack jade token given by the Tribulation Crossing Ancestor, the male cultivator continued to walk deeper into the cave.
The closer you are to a level five monster, the stronger the pressure you can feel.
The male cultivator held the attack jade slip in his hand, ready to kill with one strike.
He has a good idea.
The result was not what he wanted.
The two-headed flame beast that was practicing in the cave sensed an uninvited guest in its territory and immediately stood up and walked out.
The male cultivator soon saw one of the heads of the two-headed flame beast appear at the corner at the end of the passage, and he immediately input a stream of spiritual energy into the attack jade token in his hand.
The imagined scene of the attack jade token being activated did not occur.
In just a moment, the two-headed flaming beast appeared in front of the male cultivator. He didn't even have time to scream before he was swallowed by the two-headed flame beast.
Only two hours after the Lingxi Secret Realm was opened, the number of cultivators in the Zhongxuan Continent dropped from eighteen to seventeen.
In a stone chamber.
After Lu Yueyao collected all the spirit stones in the stone chamber, she discovered a random teleportation array. After placing two high-quality spirit stones into the center of the formation, she activated the teleportation formation and left the stone chamber.
When she appeared again, she was at the entrance of a valley.
Just as she was about to release her spiritual sense to check what was in the valley, she sensed a terrifying aura in the valley. Seeing this, she turned around and planned to leave without thinking.
However, she had only taken two steps when she heard the footsteps of a monster running behind her.
“Thump, thump, thump~”
Every step seemed to be stepping on her heart.
With a thought, a gust of wind talisman appeared in Lu Yueyao's hand. He slapped his body and the wind talisman was activated.
The next moment, the wind came from under her feet, and her whole body floated hundreds of meters away like a gust of breeze.
Just when Lu Yueyao thought she could easily get rid of the monster behind her, she saw through her spiritual sense that nearby monsters were running towards her from all directions.
This phenomenon is obviously abnormal.
It was like there was something about her that was attracting the monsters.
Could it be that... someone sprinkled animal-attracting powder on her?
She immediately put her arm under her nose and sniffed, and there was no smell of animal powder on the clothes.
The monsters were getting closer and closer, some of them could fly. She is only at the early stage of the Golden Core stage now, and no matter how fast she is, she cannot outrun a level four monster. With a flash of her figure, she disappeared from the spot.
There was a gentle breeze, and the monster that was running towards Lu Yueyao suddenly stopped. They all twitched their noses, and the smell that had attracted their attention disappeared.
Several fast-running monsters have already seen each other.
They started fighting immediately.
Half an hour later, Lu Yueyao, wearing a light blue robe, appeared out of thin air at the place where she disappeared.
A pungent smell of blood wafted into her nose and she looked up.
My goodness, there were two huge level four monsters lying on the ground not far away.
One has lost its life, and the other is dying.
"Roar~" The dying monster let out a low roar, as if warning Lu Yueyao to leave.
The corpses of two level four monsters can be exchanged for a lot of spirit stones. Lu Yueyao naturally wants to pick up this bargain. She took a few steps forward and dealt a fatal blow to the dying monster.
In order to prevent the smell of blood from attracting other monsters, she happily put the bodies of the two level four monsters into her Qiankun bag and quickly left the place.
In a forest south of the secret realm.
As soon as he stepped on the ground, Ye Yixin immediately glanced around. After making sure it was safe, she immediately took off her outermost clothes.
She didn't want to cheat others, but in the end she was chased by the monster.
Although the effect of the beast-luring powder only lasts for a quarter of an hour, its efficacy is much stronger than ordinary beast-luring powder. Humans cannot smell this enhanced version of the beast-attracting powder, but monsters are very sensitive to it.
When it was first refined, she experimented with Xuanwu.
Who knows when she might need the beast-luring powder again. Ye Yixin took out an empty bag and put the clothes she had taken off into it.
If this piece of clothing is exposed to the air, the smell of the animal-attracting powder on it will quickly dissipate.
With a thought, Ye Yixin's appearance changed from an ordinary man to an ordinary woman.
Taking out a magic sword, she input spiritual energy into the sword, and the sword turned into a flying sword. She stepped on it, controlled the spirit sword to rise, and quickly rushed out of the forest.
Looking down, what she saw was an endless forest.
She opened her hand and a jade slip appeared in her palm.
This jade slip is a map of Lingxi Secret Realm, drawn by a senior from Chengshuang Sect who had been to Lingxi Secret Realm. It not only marks the locations of many rare treasures, but also the places where high-level monsters are found.
Only those who have practiced the Chengshuang Sect's skills can open the jade slip. Even if others get the jade slip, they will not be able to see the contents inside.
Ye Yixin probed her spiritual consciousness into the jade slip, and a map appeared in her mind. She quickly found an endless forest on the map.
According to the map, she should be in the south of the secret realm now. After noting down the locations of the natural treasures in the forest, she put away the jade slips and controlled the spirit sword to descend.
As soon as she jumped from the spirit sword to the ground, she heard a buzzing sound in her ears.
The spiritual sense probed in the direction where the sound came from.
The next moment, Ye Yixin felt unwell. It turned out that there was a large group of spirit bees.
Moreover, these spirit bees are either level three or level four, which is equivalent to the Jindan and Yuanying stages of human cultivators. The sight of the dense crowds of flies flying towards her made her scalp tingle.
Didn’t Master say that Lingxi Secret Realm is not dangerous? How come she encountered such a high-level spirit bee as soon as she came in?
Ruan Fu: ...What I mean by not dangerous is that you should follow the green marked areas on the map given by the sect.
So many spirit bees are flying towards her. Could it be that there is still the scent of animal-attracting powder on her body?
With all kinds of thoughts in her mind, she had already run far away.
As she ran, she found that the spirit bee was flying in another direction and was no longer chasing her.
Confused, she quietly released her spiritual sense to check. Soon she saw a male cultivator in green robes running desperately in front, with a swarm of spirit bees chasing him from behind.
So, the spirit bee was not flying towards her just now, but was chasing the male cultivator in green.
The male cultivator’s cultivation level is the same as hers, both are at the peak of the Golden Core stage.
After staying there for two seconds, Ye Yixin ran towards the direction where the spirit bee came from.
After a while, she ran under some tall locust trees. Looking up, I saw five or six beehives bigger than watermelons hanging on the locust tree.
She seemed to be able to see through the hive and see the magical honey inside.
After wiping the non-existent saliva from the corner of her mouth, Ye Yixin took out a bottle specially used to store honey and collected the spiritual honey while all the spiritual bees were led away by the male cultivator in green.
She didn't take all of it, but only took two-thirds of the spiritual honey from each beehive.
The green-clothed male cultivator who was fleeing in a panic had no idea that Ye Yixin had rubbed the beast-attracting powder on him, and indirectly helped Ye Yixin get two large bottles of spiritual honey.
Running to a river, the blue-clothed male cultivator dived into the river. The spirit bees cannot go into the water, so he was able to get rid of the spirit bees that were chasing him.
After the other cultivators from the Zhongxuan Continent were teleported to the Lingxi Secret Realm, they all suffered losses to some extent because of the beast-attracting powder on them.
The result was just as Ye Yixin expected.
The worst among them was Zhou Zhiyuan.
Because he was knocked into the secret realm by Ye Yixin, the teleportation light disappeared only halfway through. Before he could react, he fell into the swamp.
It took him a lot of effort to climb out of the swamp.
On the other side, Ye Yuncheng was teleported to the lair of a fourth-level monster. As soon as he felt the terrifying pressure, he immediately released the white tiger from the spirit beast bag.
A white light flashed, and the white tiger killed the monster that pounced on Ye Yuncheng with one claw.
With the protection of the White Tiger, Ye Yuncheng had no plans to join up with the people from the sect, nor did he plan to look for Ye Yisheng and others. He would act alone and share the opportunities equally with Baihu.
After the disciples from other sects entered the secret realm, they would first find their fellow disciples and then act together. They were afraid of encountering powerful monsters and cultivators from the Zhongxuan Continent.
A few timid ones simply stayed where they were and practiced.
Three days passed in a flash.
Under the guidance of the treasure-hunting monkey, Lu Yueyao came to a stone wall.
[Master, master, I sense there is something good in there. 】The treasure-hunting monkey squeaked and sent a message to Lu Yueyao.
Lu Yueyao met the treasure-hunting monkey in a cave a day ago. At that time, the treasure-hunting monkey was locked in a cage made of unknown material.
The man and the beast looked at each other for three seconds. The treasure-hunting monkey saw the strong luck in Lu Yueyao and took the initiative to recognize Lu Yueyao as its master.
After recognizing its master, Lu Yueyao put the treasure-hunting monkey into the contract space. The treasure-hunting monkey thus escaped from the cage that held it.
Afterwards, the treasure-hunting monkey used its innate skills to bring Lu Yueyao here.
Lu Yueyao tried to launch a spiritual energy attack at the stone wall with only 10% of its power. A white light suddenly flashed across the seemingly ordinary stone wall, and the attack disappeared into thin air.
Seeing this, Lu Yueyao clasped her hands together, and a fire dragon flew out from her fingertips and rushed towards the stone wall.
The stone wall flashed white light again, and the attack with 90% of its power did not leave any trace on the stone wall.
Instead of continuing to attack the stone wall, Lu Yueyao looked at the treasure-hunting monkey and said helplessly: "You can see that there is a powerful barrier protecting it. We can't get in at all."
The treasure-hunting monkey looked conflicted and hesitated for a moment. Then it opened its mouth and spit out a cone-like magical weapon.
[Master, use this.] 】
Lu Yueyao first simply recognized the awl magic weapon as her master, and then controlled the awl to attack the stone wall.
The barrier protecting the stone wall began to flash white light the moment the awl touched it. The awl is obviously a special magical weapon, and its function is to break barriers.
Under the attack of the cone, the barrier gradually cracked.
A quarter of an hour later, the barrier made a "click" sound.
Lu Yueyao stretched out her hand and the awl flew back into her hand. Then she cast another attack spell at the stone wall.
"Boom~"
Without the barrier, the attack spells would shatter into pieces as soon as they hit the stone wall. After the dust flew away, a dark passage was revealed.
The treasure-hunting monkey darted into the passage, and Lu Yueyao hurriedly followed.
As soon as she entered the passage, Lu Yueyao clearly felt the spiritual energy was at least twice as dense as outside. She was looking forward to the good things that the treasure-hunting monkey mentioned.
With the treasure-hunting monkey ahead of her, she doesn't have to worry about encountering danger at all.
After walking for half a minute, the treasure-hunting monkey suddenly stopped, with all its hair standing up, and looked ahead with a vigilant look.
