Xu Xian became really excited when he saw so many spiritual plants.
But the excitement soon subsided.
Just because all the spiritual plants that entered the eyes had lost their spiritual fruits, they were probably eaten by the group of mutated monkeys that appeared in Zhangjiacun.
Secretly muttering a pity, he walked towards those spiritual plants.
Although the spiritual fruits have been picked, these spiritual plants can be planted in the Golden Pearl Space, which will also bring him a new batch of spiritual fruits in the near future.
Taking out the shovel that came from the Lotus Manor in the space, Xu Xian began to dig out each spiritual plant.
By the time he dug out the eighth spiritual plant, he had already reached the edge of the field. Going further, he would reach the deep woods.
'Do you want to go in?'
Seeing the two spiritual plants that caught his eye in the woods, Xu Xian hesitated for a moment.
Today's woods are no longer what they used to be. A mutated beast might suddenly appear. It would be extremely unwise to rush in.
Just like the anchor who went to Nanshan at night and saw it on Douyin earlier, he has been digested and absorbed by some unknown beast.
However, just when Xu Xian was hesitating, his eyes suddenly fixed on the woods about two or three meters deep.
There was a spiritual plant there that emitted weak fluorescence. To his surprise, the blue spiritual fruit on the top of the spiritual plant was still there and had not been picked!
'Give it a try?'
Xu Xian thought about it briefly. Now that he has reached the D level of strength, he has no pressure to face a being like the White-haired Monkey King. I guess there shouldn't be a creature stronger than the White-haired Monkey King at the edge of the mountain, right?
After making up his mind, he held the shovel and walked towards the spiritual fruit in the woods, keeping alert to the surrounding movements along the way.
The woods were very quiet, even a little depressing. Even if there was no news about the recovery of spiritual energy from the outside world, you could still feel that it was different from yesterday before the hail and blue rain.
Fortunately, nothing unexpected happened when Xu Xian picked the spirit-nurturing fruit.
'besides?!'
After gathering the spiritual plant into the golden bead space, Xu Xian swept it in other directions of the forest.
This seemingly casual glance actually revealed two more spiritual plants hanging with spiritual fruit.
With the thought that they had come, Xu Xian certainly would not let them go and decisively stepped forward to pick them off.
Immediately afterwards, he searched the forest in an area he thought was safe and harvested three spiritual fruits again.
After harvesting six spirit-nurturing fruits, Xu Xian stopped being greedy and slowly retreated to the edge of the woods.
There are two spiritual plants there that have lost their spiritual fruits, and they need to be dug up before leaving.
‘Crack!’
Just when Xu Xian was picking up the spiritual plants, putting away the shovel and preparing to return to Zhangjiacun, a faint cracking sound was heard.
The woods were so quiet, and his hearing had become sharper now, and he had been alert the whole time, so he caught the movement immediately.
Xu Xian tensed his body and quickly turned his head to look at the source of the sound.
This sight made him raise his brows, and there, separated by seven or eight trees, was a huge ox staring motionlessly at him.
At first glance, this ox has a sharp horn on its forehead, its body is about three to four meters long, and its tendons look more like those who have participated in a bodybuilding competition. It is already beyond the size of an ordinary ox.
After realizing that Xu Xian had seen it, the scalper's tail began to swing, and the swing became larger and larger.
Seeing this scene, Xu Xian immediately put on a defensive posture. Although he couldn't understand the meaning of the scalper's action, he felt that the scalper was becoming more and more hostile towards him.
Sure enough, in the next second, the tip of the cow's nose made a "chi" sound, and then the cow stepped on its hoof and rushed towards Xu Xian quickly, with the two sharp horns stabbing straight at the front.
‘Donglong, Donglong——’
Xu Xian didn't move, his eyes were always fixed on the scalper. He found that although this guy was very powerful, his speed was somewhat inferior, and it was definitely not as good as the white-haired monkey king.
The shaking on the ground turned louder, and the scalper had already rushed in front of Xu Xian.
The moment the sharp horns were about to touch him, Xu Xian dodged sideways at an extremely fast speed like a matador.
The scalper hit the air with one strike, and just as he was about to turn around and charge forward, Xu Xian from the side shouted loudly, and slammed his clenched fist on the scalper's head.
‘Bang!’
A dull sound sounded, and Yellow Ox's huge body was directly knocked to the ground by the punch.
'It turns out I can really knock down a cow with one punch!'
Looking at the struggling scalper lying on the ground, Xu Xian couldn't help but admired in his heart.
"Moo-!"
Yellow Ox roared angrily and struggled to stand up.
Xu Xian didn't give it this chance, and immediately stepped forward and punched the scalper twice more on the head.
After being punched twice in a row on the head, Huang Niu became dazed and his struggling strength became much weaker.
Just when Xu Xian was about to give the scalper a fatal blow, he suddenly caught a glimpse of two rows of slightly bloated ‘buttons’ on the belly of the scalper.
"Is this a cow?" Xu Xian was stunned and couldn't help but murmured.
For a moment, many strange thoughts came to his mind.
First of all, beef has always been a good dish on the table, and many businesses have graded its quality, especially steaks, which are divided into three, six, and nine grades. It is said that the higher grades taste particularly good.
Of course, Xu Xian had never eaten it. What he was thinking was that since the spiritual energy had revived and the cattle in front of him seemed to have mutated, would the beef on it be more delicious?
Although there was no way to identify it, he felt that beef that had been moistened by spiritual energy should taste better.
Then he thought that the large grassland in the Golden Pearl Space was also very full of spiritual energy. If he raised this cow in it and found a way to make it give birth, would he be able to continue to eat high-quality steaks in the future?
Already?
Thinking of this, Xu Xian couldn't help but take action.
The scalper on the ground was still confused and could not attack him anymore, so he directly put his hand on the opponent's head.
When his thoughts arose, he first felt a faint obstruction, and then the cow was actually taken into the golden bead space by him.
'We have something to do, let's wait until we get back to Jinling City!'
Xu Xian clapped his hands and stood up happily.
In the past, he couldn't afford such an ox, but now he picked one up for nothing.
"Xu Xian!"
"Brother Xian!"
When Xu Xian returned to Zhangjiacun, Chen Nan and Liu Dong, who had already eliminated several other mutated monkeys, were looking for him everywhere.
"I'm here."
He responded from a few alleys away, and after thinking for a moment, six spirit-nurturing fruits appeared in Xu Xian's hands.
Following the sound, Chen Nan and Liu Dong came to Xu Xian.
Seeing that Xu Xian was the only one, Liu Dong looked around subconsciously: "Brother Xian, where are those mutant monkeys?"
"Kill him." Xu Xian said matter-of-factly.
Liu Dong's eyes widened immediately: "Then... kill all of them?!"
You must know that he and Chen Nan spent a lot of effort to deal with three of them, but he saw at least seven or eight mutant monkeys chasing Xu Xian away.
Before Xu Xian could say anything, Chen Nan pointed at his hand and said in disbelief: "These...are all spirit-nurturing fruits?"
