Chapter 77: Shadow-like Decision
Li Fan found many glass beads that had not been completely digested in the stomach of the strange beast dragon whale.
It should be the remains after the dragon whale swallowed the school of glass fish.
"It seems that since I killed that giant glass fish, the situation of the glass fish school is worrying." Li Fan thought to himself.
In addition to the glass beads, there were also half a coral, a shiny fish bone and other miscellaneous things.
Li Fan packed up everything regardless of whether he knew them or not.
Finally, Li Fan checked again to make sure he had not missed anything before leaving quietly.
There was no conversation along the way, and we returned safely to Wanxian Island.
After handing over the corpse of the strange beast dragon whale, Li Fan chose to exchange the things he had looted from its stomach for contribution points one by one.
A total of 320 points.
Afterwards, after some identification, the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance also confirmed that the dragon whale corpse handed over by Li Fan was the one that had attacked the island before.
Thus, the task reward of 2000 points was obtained.
Adding the remaining 450 points, Li Fan currently has a total of 2770 contribution points.
"With so many contribution points, it should be enough for me to choose a satisfactory technique."
At present, Li Fan still lacks the means to conceal his own aura in order to track others.
This type of technique is also relatively rare, but if you are only in the Qi Refining Stage, 2770 contribution points are definitely enough.
Li Fan began to select in the Tianxuan Realm.
At this moment, in the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, the task of hunting down the exotic beast dragon whale, which once left many Foundation Establishment cultivators helpless, was actually completed by a Qi Refining cultivator.
This abnormal phenomenon immediately attracted the attention of many people.
Especially the group of people who had joined together to issue the task in the first place, they were extremely confused.
"Late Qi Refining Stage, Li Fan? Who is this person? Wasn't it said that the dragon whale could withstand the attacks of a Jindan cultivator? How did Li Fan kill it?"
"Could it be that this person has hidden his cultivation?"
"This fellow Taoist has just joined our Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, right? Do you want to hide your cultivation in front of the Lingbao Tianxuan Mirror? How is that possible!"
"This person is undoubtedly in the late stage of Qi Refining. I have asked someone to confirm that he was introduced to our Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance by He Zhenghao not long ago."
"Oh? Then how did this person do it?"
"Could it be that this person is carrying a rare treasure?"
…
The fact that the Qi-refining cultivators have achieved something that even the Foundation-building cultivators cannot do makes people think a lot.
At this moment, a disdainful voice sounded.
"Don't guess anymore. Here's the latest insider information: this kid is just lucky." These words immediately attracted a lot of attention.
"Fellow Daoist Zhou Peng, what do you mean by that?"
"Yeah, lucky? How is that possible?"
…
Zhou Peng also sighed: "I can't believe it either, but it's true."
"The corpse of the dragon whale was sent to Elder Gongsun of Tianji Hall for analysis. The conclusion was that before it died, the dragon whale had fought with at least three sea beasts of the same level."
"Most of the scars on its body were caused by these giant beasts."
"Before it died, the dragon whale had already run out of energy. Even if that kid didn't take action, the dragon whale wouldn't have lived for long."
After Zhou Peng finished speaking, the surroundings suddenly became quiet.
Although it is a bit unbelievable, everyone has heard of the name of Elder Gongsun of Tianji Hall.
Therefore, the conclusion he drew is relatively credible.
"It is said that the dragon whale is about to transform into a dragon. Perhaps because of this reason, it has attracted the covetousness of other giant beasts."
"That makes sense. For the exotic beasts that can devour each other to evolve, those that have awakened their ancestral bloodline are the most beneficial."
"Oh my, this Qi-refining kid is so lucky. I'm really envious of him. That's 2,000 contribution points!"
The people around nodded when they heard this.
…
Li Fan had already prepared himself for the possible impact of completing the bounty mission for the exotic dragon whale.
But he wasn't afraid at all.
Because no matter how you look at it, this dragon whale died in the slaughter between giant beasts. He was just lucky and picked up a bargain when he passed by.
For 2000 contribution points, it is worth taking a little risk.
Putting this matter aside, after a period of searching and comparing, Li Fan determined his target technique.
"Like a Shadow".
The essence of this practice is reflected in the four words "like a shadow following you".
The technique is good at tracking and hiding.
Once the enemy is locked onto, it will follow closely like the enemy's shadow, making it difficult for the enemy to escape.
It can also be like a shadow hiding in the shadow, making it undetectable.
With such miraculous effects, the price is naturally not cheap.
1800 contribution points.
Li Fan was also generous and bought it directly.
Just when Li Fan was preparing to practice in seclusion, he suddenly received a spiritual communication from He Zhenghao.
"Daoyou Li Fan! Oh, I didn't expect that the cultivator who hunted down the dragon whale was really you! I thought it was just another cultivator with the same name, surname, and realm as you!"
"It was not until someone came to me to inquire about your situation that I was able to confirm that it was indeed the dragon whale you killed!"
He Zhenghao seemed extremely excited.
"Okay, okay, you finally vented my anger! You don't know, these days, every time I close my eyes, I see the image of the plummeting price of the Spirit Mist Grass."
…
Li Fan was silent for a while, and then he replied: "I was just lucky. When I was on a mission, I happened to see the dragon whale fighting with other giant beasts, so I got the upper hand."
Soon after the message was sent, He Zhenghao replied immediately.
"Luck is also a part of strength. Fellow Daoist, your talent and luck are both so extraordinary. You must have a bright future!"
Before Li Fan could figure out how to reply, he saw another message from He Zhenghao.
"I just happen to have something that I would like to ask for your help, may I ask?"
"Oh? What's that?"
"Yes. I would like to ask you to take over the post of guarding Liuli Island for me. What do you think?"
"Acting garrison commander?" Li Fan was a little curious.
He Zhenghao hurriedly explained.
"Because of the Lingwu Grass incident, I lost most of my savings over the years. Seeing that I am getting further and further away from the Nascent Soul technique I want to exchange for, I really can't bear it."
"It just so happens that a few friends recently discovered an ancient cave and invited me to explore it together. According to them, this cave should have been sealed before the catastrophe came. There must be many rare treasures in it, and it is not impossible that there are even many skills."
"If I can gain something, it can make up for my losses to some extent. So I decided to give it a try."
Li Fan thought about it and did not give an immediate answer. Instead, he asked, "How long do you need me to guard the city?"
He Zhenghao replied quickly: "It won't take long. One or two years at the least, three or four years at the most."
