The stones on the backs of turtle monsters will eventually be exhausted. When no more stones appear on their backs, Qiao Bai and Xu Ran were still unscathed.
"Did you see a problem?"
The turtle monsters temporarily ended their attack, and Xu Ran's brows also frowned.
"We have indeed discovered a problem. These turtle monsters seem to only know how to fight in groups!"
Qiao Bai scratched his head. The turtle monster did give him such a feeling, but it was the first time in his life that he had seen this kind of situation. Before, he had only heard about this kind of thing in the outside world when he listened to Gu Zheng's anecdotes about the outside world.
A monster that only knows how to fight in groups.
"I've learned a lot again, let me try to see if it's true!"
Xu Ran frowned and shouted the 'Mountain Knife Technique' towards the turtle monster.
Xu Ran and Qiao Bai actually know quite a lot of immortal skills, but it's not just the 'Crazy Crazy Sword' and 'Raging Sea Frenzy' that were taught to them just two days before the ancient war. It's just that they don't have any of the immortal skills they knew before.
'Crazy Crazy Knife' and 'Raging Sea Tide' are just powerful.
Facing Xu Ran's sword energy, more than twenty turtle monsters stuck out their tongues uniformly and made a sound of "lue lulu lulu".
The turtle monsters stuck out their tongues, not making faces at Xu Ran. While their tongues kept shaking, a colorless barrier appeared in front of them, helping them block the light of Xu Ran's sword.
"Woooooooo..."
The colorless barrier was formed, and the more than twenty turtles no longer made the sound of "luu lulu lue". They started to raise their heads to the sky and scream strangely.
Amidst the weird screams of the turtle monster, the Hanging Mountain trembled, and a huge thing broke away from the mountain.
The thing that broke away from the mountain looked like an extremely rough stone statue. It was ten feet tall and rushed towards Qiao Bai and Xu Ran.
"Leave it to you to deal with the turtle monster, and I'll deal with this big guy!"
Qiao Bai greeted Xu Ran, and his body grew bigger while shaking.
However, with Qiao Bai's current cultivation level, the limit of body growth is eight feet, and he still looks much shorter than the stone statue.
"Peng!"
Qiao Bai's sword energy was hit by the stone statue's fist. While making a loud noise, rocks also fell from the stone statue's fist.
"good!"
Through one blow, Qiao Bai had discovered that the strength of this stone statue should be about the same as him, and it was within the range that he could deal with.
"Falling Leaf Sword Technique!"
Qiao Bai used the immortal skill 'Falling Leaf Sword Technique', and like butterflies flying through fallen leaves, he fought with the huge stone statue.
Xu Ran was not idle either. Precisely because he had also heard Gu Zheng’s anecdotes about me being outside the circle, he knew that these monsters outside the circle who could only attack in groups had a big weakness, that is, they were afraid of close combat.
.
Knowing what the monsters were afraid of, Xu Ran naturally followed them and raised a colorless barrier with a slash at close range. Xu Ran was not worried about his own safety at all, because he understood that he was fighting with Qiao Bai.
The stone statue is actually jointly controlled by the turtle monsters. As long as he breaks through the colorless barrier, the turtle monsters are almost like lambs to be slaughtered.
"Yes, you still remember what I said."
Seeing Qiao Bai and Xu Ran's clear division of labor, Gu Zheng smiled in his heart. If he hadn't discovered that these twenty-odd turtle monsters were the kind of monsters that could only fight in groups, how could he have let Qiao Bai and Xu Ran
Then the two of them went to deal with more than twenty of them.
Although a single turtle monster seems to have the strength of the early stage of returning to the void, this strength is very weak, because they simply cannot fight alone.
Qiao Bai was still fighting with the stone statue, but Xu Ran had already broken the barrier set up by the turtle monster, and chopped off the head of one of the turtle monsters with a single blow.
Earthy-colored blood spurted out from the neck of the turtle monster like a fountain. The other turtle monsters felt the threat of death and immediately fled into the distance like rollers. The stone statues originally controlled by them came immediately.
He suddenly fell to the ground and shattered into rubble.
"Don't chase!"
Seeing that Xu Ran was eager to kill and wanted to chase the escaped turtle monster, Qiao Bai hurriedly called him to stop. This was Xuankong Mountain and there were too many unknowns. He was afraid that Xu Ran would suffer a loss.
Xu Ran stopped and looked at Gu Zheng with questioning eyes.
"No need to chase them. They will turn into rocks on the mountain later and we will still encounter them."
Gu Zheng stood up and walked towards Qiao Bai and Xu Ran, and the turtle monster that Xu Ran killed before gave him another earth attribute inner elixir.
To say that the turtle monster is really strange, they are both earth-type monsters, but they don't know how to escape from the earth. They are just petrified similar to the invisibility technique.
The petrification ability of the turtle monster is also very strong, at least it can hide it from Qiao Bai, who is in the late stage of returning to the void, but they can't hide the abnormality in Xuran's eyes. After all, Xuran has just opened the 'Eye of False Tao'
If you know how, you will be able to see through the true nature of Lingzhu and Xiong San.
"There, there, there..."
Xu Ran's fingers kept pointing at the mountain. Those seemingly normal stones were actually transformed by turtle monsters.
"Peng Peng Peng!"
Explosions sounded one after another, and Qiao Bai and Xu Ran killed the turtle monsters one after another.
In the process of Qiao Bai and Xu Ran killing the turtle monsters, they truly realized what it meant to be a 'big world with all kinds of wonders' and what it meant to be a 'shrinking turtle'. After those turtle monsters were afraid of them, they turned into rocks and didn't even resist.
, more than twenty of them were all easily killed by them.
More than twenty turtle monsters contributed more than twenty earth-attribute inner elixirs to Guzheng.
Gu Zheng also took Qiao Bai and Xu Ran on the road. On the way to the waterfall, they did not encounter phantom attacks, but they encountered another monster interception.
The monsters that intercepted Gu Zheng and the others were one that looked like an elephant, and the other looked like a rhinoceros. Although these two monsters were big, they were not very strong. They were both killed by Qiao Bai and Xu Ran.
Killed.
We finally got close to the waterfall, and when we looked up, we felt like the Milky Way had fallen into the sky.
In the mist, Gu Zheng observed the waterfall with his Taoist eyes, and joy gradually appeared on his face.
"Yes, the waterfall water here is indeed suitable for brewing fairy wine." Gu Zheng said with a smile.
"Very good!"
Qiao Bai and Xu Ran cheered, they missed the taste of fairy fruit wine so much.
"Although the waterfall water is suitable, it cannot be used to brew ambrosia because the water has been polluted."
Gu Zheng pointed to the water curtain cave above, and Qiao Bai and Xu Ran immediately understood that the source of the pollution came from the golden toad monster in the cave.
"You two just wait here while I kill that golden toad monster."
Gu Zheng paused and pointed to the pool below the waterfall: "There are a lot of fish and shrimps and other ingredients here, and the grade is not low. You collect these ingredients, and when the fairy wine is brewed, we will use these ingredients
Make a meal to celebrate!”
Qiao Bai and Xu Ran happily went to collect ingredients, and Gu Zheng also flew into the water curtain cave.
The environment is very humid, there are many pools of water on the ground, and the water drops dripping from time to time on the roof of the cave make a "tick-tick-tick" sound.
There is nothing special around, just stalactites of different shapes. However, the color of these stalactites is all green, and they have all been contaminated by the poison of the Golden Toad Monster.
Gu Zheng was flying among the stalactites, exploring with his spiritual thoughts while flying.
"Huh? Not here?"
When Gu Zheng's spiritual mind explored a pool, he found that the golden toad monster that stayed in the pool during his previous exploration was not there.
However, the Water Curtain Cave is very deep, and the Golden Toad Monster is not here, but may be deeper in the cave.
After flying forward for some distance, Gu Zheng's spiritual thoughts had already explored the bottom of the cave and discovered the existence of the golden toad monster.
Gu Zheng came to kill the golden toad monster. The biggest purpose was not because it polluted the water quality. If it was just a problem of water quality and the water curtain cave was not at the source of the waterfall, he could go to the source of the waterfall to get water. He wanted to kill
The biggest purpose of getting rid of the Golden Toad Monster is because the Golden Toad Monster is a metallic monster. In addition to contributing metallic inner elixirs to it, certain parts of its body are also materials that can be used in weapon refining.
Gu Zheng originally planned to kill the Golden Toad Monster with thunder after discovering it, but at this time he hesitated because the place where the Golden Toad Monster used as its nest was too strange.
Gu Zheng had no doubt that the thing used as a nest by the Golden Toad Monster was originally an ore of an unknown metal. However, because the Golden Toad Monster squatted in it all year round and contained corrosive toxins, this piece was originally an ore.
The thing has been turned into a piece of metal by 'removing the essentials'. Moreover, the shape of the metal is very strange, like a stove!
There are two types of treasures in the world, one is innate and the other is acquired.
Like the Book of Life and Death and the Pen of Qianqiu Reincarnation owned by Gu Zheng, these are innate things, and there is no doubt about their power.
Among the acquired things, like the Tie Immortal Token that Gu Zheng had before, including the immortal-level space artifact that he has not completely obtained now, they are all acquired things created by man, but their power is also mediocre.
doubt.
The reason why Gu Zheng looked at the Golden Toad Monster's nest and hesitated was because the Golden Toad Monster's nest was also an acquired thing.
Acquired things are not only created by humans, they may also be formed by chance. Just like the golden toad monster's nest, its material is extraordinary, and the golden toad monster unintentionally 'fiddles' with it during its growth.
The fluctuations it now emits, belonging to an immortal weapon, are already stronger than the weapon refining furnace used by Gu Zheng today.
Gu Zheng hesitated because this acquired thing, the 'Golden Toad Furnace', was not a perfect thing. If the Golden Toad Monster were allowed to 'fiddle' with it any longer, it might even have the potential to become a top-notch refining furnace. After all, today's
It is already very close to a high-end weapon refining furnace. However, if it wants to change from the current quality to a truly high-end weapon refining furnace, Gu Zheng feels that it will take at least three hundred years to become a top-level weapon refining furnace.
If so, three thousand years may not be enough.
If Gu Zheng takes over the 'Golden Toad Furnace' now, the grade of the furnace will be finalized. But if Gu Zheng doesn't take over, even if he waits three hundred years to come back, God knows he won't be able to enter this immortal formation again. After all,
, Gu Zheng has no idea how big the barrier is, and the landing place is different every time he enters.
"Three hundred years is a long time. Maybe within this period of time, I have already obtained the top-level refining furnace, so there is no need to wait for this golden toad monster to slowly 'play around'. Although I have obtained it now
The furnace will be finalized to be very close to the high-end weapon refining furnace, but it will be better than the one I am using now. It is also possible to refine the two basilisks I obtained before into metal-resistant ones.
The fairy tool of dragon scissors."
"Cuckoo!"
Just when Gu Zheng was making up his mind, the golden toad monster that discovered him also launched an attack on him.
The call that didn't sound loud was actually a sonic attack. However, the difference in strength was too big, so this sonic attack had no impact on Gu Zheng at all.
A ray of light shot out from Gu Zheng's hand. Gu Zheng, who had no intention of letting the golden toad monster accompany him to practice his moves, directly sacrificed the Book of Life and Death.
"Peng!"
With a loud noise, the Book of Life and Death knocked the golden toad monster out of the furnace.
However, the physical strength of the Golden Toad Monster was even more powerful than Gu Zheng expected, and the Book of Life and Death did not even crush it to death.
Without one blow, Gu Zheng struck a second time. This second blow from the Book of Life and Death flattened the Golden Toad Monster's head, leaving it with no chance to use any of its many methods.
After the death of the Golden Toad Monster, its body became so hard that it almost turned into a lump of metal. Gu Zheng took it into his storage, and then took away the 'Golden Toad Furnace'.
There was nothing else to be found in the Water Curtain Cave, so Gu Zheng did not stop and flew straight out of the Water Curtain Cave.
When Gu Zheng flew out of the water curtain cave, Qiao Bai and Xu Ran were still catching fish and shrimps in the pool.
"Master, what's wrong?" Qiao Bai asked.
"The golden toad monster has been taken care of, and we have an unexpected harvest." Gu Zheng said with a smile.
"Sir, what unexpected gain is this?" Xu Ran asked hurriedly.
Gu Zheng waved his hand, and with a loud bang, the Golden Toad Stove was released.
Looking at the golden toad furnace, which was about one foot high, both Qiao Bai and Xu Ran's eyes widened. They could feel the fluctuations from the golden toad furnace that were similar to that of an immortal weapon, but they had never seen such a weird thing before.
Yes, it feels like a stove, but not a stove.
"Master, is this an immortal weapon?" Qiao Bai asked.
"This is something that can be used as a refining furnace."
Gu Zheng told Qiao Bai and Xu Ran about the formation process of the Golden Toad Furnace.
"This is really amazing!"
After hearing what Gu Zheng said, Xu was filled with emotion.
"Master, is this Golden Toad Furnace just a semi-finished product?" Qiao Bai asked.
"That's right, if you want to make it a real weapon refining furnace, I need to make two changes to it. The first step is to refine it, and the second step is to carve it with the weapon refining pattern.
"Gu Zheng said.
After chatting with Qiao Bai and Xu Ran for a while, Gu Zheng ordered them to continue catching fish and shrimps, while he flew to the source of the waterfall to get water.
Gu Zheng planned to brew the fairy wine first. After the fairy wine was brewed, he would cook a table of dishes to celebrate with Qiao Bai and Xu Ran. After relaxing, he would then start dealing with the Golden Toad Stove.
The water of the waterfall is very clear, and the taste of the source spring water is even sweeter. The quality of the water has reached excellent level. Spring water of this level is rare even in ancient times. In ancient times, in addition to collecting enough for brewing fairy wine
, and also collected a lot of them for later use.
The water is already available. Qiao Bai and Xu Ran have caught enough fish and shrimps and are doing preliminary treatment for them.
"call!"
There was a heavy sound of wind, and Gu Zheng released a large item from his storage hand.
The so-called large item is actually a wine pool. This was a wine pool specially made by Gu Zheng two years ago when he was brewing fairy wine. The yellow mud he chose is not ordinary.
The fermentation can play a big role, so Guzheng is not willing to throw it away after using it.
Putting the cleaned and simply processed fairy fruits into the wine pool, Gu Zheng put the ingredients to go with the fairy fruits into the wine pool, and finally added enough spring water.
Immortal power was used to form a colorless barrier to seal the wine pool, and the heat generated by the ancient fire of life also acted on the wine pool.
"Master, how long does it take to brew the fairy wine this time?" Qiao Bai asked.
"These fairy fruits in the outside world are different from those in the ancient world. The time required to brew the fairy wine is not too long. It is estimated that five hours will be enough." Gu Zheng said.
When they heard that they would be able to taste the fairy wine in five hours, both Qiao Bai and Xu Ran couldn't help but smack their lips.
As time went by, the sour smell of fermentation overflowed from the wine pool. It was so sour that it made people feel refreshed, and so sour that it made people want to drool.
Gu Zheng weakened the heat a bit, and the Water Control Technique was used in the wine pool to stir the fairy wine puree in the wine pool.
During the process of Gu Zheng stirring the immortal wine puree, the sour taste became more intense, so much so that Qiao Bai and Xu Ran, who seemed to be practicing with their eyes closed, both made a "gurgling" sound in their stomachs.
.
Gu Zheng smiled slightly. Only an hour and a half had passed, and Qiao Bai and Xu Ran's stomachs were already growling with greed. They really didn't know how miserable they would be next.
As the brewing process continued, the sweet aroma of wine overflowed from the wine pool, and Qiao Bai and Xu Ran's stomachs growled even more fiercely! They couldn't help it, and after seeking Gu Zheng's consent, they began to bake.
After catching the fish and shrimp from Tan Zhong, they wanted to eat something to satisfy their craving first.
Unfortunately, even though they had quenched their cravings through fish and shrimp, as time went by, Qiao Bai and Xu Ran became unbearable again. Eating would only make their stomachs less empty and stop them from making "gurgling" sounds.
The sound was loud, but this could not quench the thirst for fairy wine in their hearts! When the aroma of wine became stronger and stronger in the air, they could not stop drooling.
The colorless barrier on the wine pool is gone, and the brewing of fairy wine has reached the final stage.
Gu Zhengqu flicked his finger at the wine pool, and the colorless barrier on the wine pool disappeared. Immortal energy in the air began to pour into the wine pool crazily, and the wine slurry in the wine pool rolled endlessly as if it was boiling.
The injection of immortal essence lasted for half an hour. Gu Zheng sealed the wine pool with a colorless barrier. The fire control technique controlled the temperature at the most appropriate level. The wine slurry in the wine pool began to slowly bubble out.
bubble.
After about a meal, Gu Zheng greeted Qiao Bai and Xu Ran to pick up the drinks.
Red fairy wine continued to flow from the wine hole on the wine pool, and the empty jars were filled one after another, with as many as two hundred jars filled.
There were two hundred jars, each jar weighed ten kilograms. Gu Zheng brewed two thousand kilograms of fairy wine this time.
