Standing on the poisonous swamp, Lu Zhong looked thoughtful.
With the help of the gray fog space, we can know that there are many iron crayfish hidden in the mud below, including many advanced demon shrimps, and the number is not small. They are all lurking under the order of the shrimp king.
A few days ago, the Liu family invited an insect master.
This person kept a pair of water crayfish, which were huge in size and ferocious in temperament. The first-level monsters in the demonstration were no match for them. The insect master claimed that he could easily deal with the iron crayfish. In the early stage, he actually killed more than ten of them.
Iron crayfish, but as the shrimp king gave the order, the two water creatures were immediately trapped to death and never came up from the poisonous swamp again.
At this time, everyone saw it clearly.
If you want to deal with the poisonous swamp iron crayfish group, you must first deal with this second-level shrimp king.
Therefore, the Liu family kept mentioning the reward for it, hoping that a brave man would emerge from the reward.
But after experiencing many failures, the guests gradually lost confidence and turned their attention to other aspects. After all, there were still many tasks to earn merit, and there was no need to specifically fight against the Iron Crawfish clan.
So gradually, the poisonous swamp became deserted.
During the process of thinking, Lu Zhong discovered that there was another figure on the poisonous swamp, but it was the one he had seen before. He claimed that he had a family tradition of luring demons, but judging from the performance in the last actual battle, it did not seem to be very reliable.
I saw him spreading the red powder as he walked, constantly spreading it into the poisonous swamp.
"Fellow Taoist, where are you?" Lu Zhong asked curiously.
"It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Lu, I'm spreading the improved demon-baiting incense!" The monk, whose skin was tanned and looked like an old farmer, said seriously. He also gestured to the red spice in his hand, which exuded a peculiar smell.
During the process, Lu Zhong paid attention and found that the crayfish underneath was motionless.
It seems that the demon-baiting incense has failed.
"Huh?" Lu Zhong suddenly noticed that there was a huge iron crayfish underneath. In the view of the scene, it had a demonic aura as strong as the sea. It was obviously the second-order iron crayfish king, and it was obviously a little restless at the moment.
, constantly rising and diving back.
struggle.
This word suddenly appeared in his mind.
"Could it be that the demon-baiting incense is not really ineffective, but the shrimps are suppressed by the shrimp king, so it creates the illusion of ineffectiveness?" Lu Zhong had this idea in his mind and was about to do some experiments.
But before that, he had to buy the demon-baiting incense.
Lu Zhong raised the matter, but the old farmer monk did not refuse. After all, the repeated failures had caused him to lose confidence in the ancestral demon-baiting incense. Now that someone wants to be a fool, how can he not sell it?
After some haggling, I finally spent three hundred spirit stones to buy the recipe for the demon-baiting incense.
After getting the recipe for the demon-baiting incense, Lu Zhong immediately started to prepare the spices.
Because he didn't understand pharmacology, he made a special trip back to Lingyue Fairy City and asked Xia Lan to be responsible for the preparation. He directly prepared the amount of nearly a thousand spiritual stones, which was a hundred times more than the old farmer monk used. After all, judging from the previous situation, the amount of medicine was too small.
The iron crayfish king can resist the medicinal properties, thus causing the illusion that the demon luring incense is ineffective.
For convenience, Xia Lan was also asked to make pills directly.
"From now on, I'll call you Monster Luuring Pill!" Lu Zhong said, looking at the watermelon-sized pill.
Next, it’s time to test the effectiveness of the demon-baiting pills.
After returning to Iron Bi Mountain at a lightning speed, there was not a single person in sight at the poisonous swamp. As expected, they all chose to give up and prepare to leave this mess for the Liu family to deal with. Secretly thinking that this was a good opportunity, Lu Zhong quickly found the Iron Crawfish King.
Wherever you are, directly drop the demon-baiting pill with a hundred times the dosage, and use the scene review to observe its movement.
As expected, it was the same as the previous judgment.
The monster luring incense in the hands of the old farmer monk was not ineffective, but the amount of spices used was too small to have the effect of luring monsters. Now that the dosage was suddenly increased a hundred times, the Iron Crawfish King really couldn't bear it. It's only a matter of time before it floats to the ground.
"No, why are the other iron crayfish still acting like nothing has happened?"
Lu Zhong discovered a new problem.
It was originally thought that the iron crayfish group was unmoved because of the suppression of the shrimp king, but judging from the current results, this is obviously not the case.
"Is it possible that the demon-baiting incense affects only the Shrimp King?"
He thought carefully and found that this seemed to be the only answer.
There was no time to think about it anymore, as the water surface of the poisonous swamp was churning, a giant shrimp that was three feet long and one foot high, with a pair of scarlet eyes, suddenly rushed out of the water.
As soon as it appeared, it rushed straight towards the demon-inducing pill, as if it had a great attraction to it.
"Finally out!"
Lu Zhong waited for it for a long time, then pinched the sword in his hand, and the golden and red sword shadows behind him immediately flew out, directly slashing towards the pair of shrimp legs to prevent the Iron Crayfish King from diving back into the water.
The Shrimp King was driven crazy by the demon-inducing pills, but he still retained a trace of intelligence.
At this moment, a pair of iron pincers danced so tightly that they could even block the two swords.
Seeing that both Shuo Jin and Jin Yan were unable to use it, Lu Zhong simply gritted his teeth and began to cast spells.
In just a few breaths, fireballs condensed out.
This time, he no longer scrimped on mana, and went straight to full firepower.
Thanks to the Jade Vein Skill, the strength of the meridians has been greatly increased compared to the past, and it can withstand a higher load of true energy, which is reflected in the fact that fireballs fall like raindrops.
The huge noise immediately alerted the guests in the temporary camp.
Immediately, several rays of light and shadow flew toward the Poison Swamp.
"It's Fellow Daoist Lu, and the Iron Crawfish King!"
someone exclaimed.
In the turbulent mud, the Iron Crawfish King was burnt to pieces, with a hole in the chest and abdomen. Lu Zhong took out a brown demon pill and received it into the storage bag with a happy face.
The merit of killing the Iron Crawfish King is enough for him to exchange for the gilded fire jade.
When it was over, Lu Zhong took a look at the Shrimp King.
Don't forget to cut off the two iron claws and the tail of the shrimp. The bigger the iron claws grow, the more delicious the meat will be. Such good ingredients cannot be wasted.
On the other side, the guests who arrived saw that Lu Zhong had defeated the Shrimp King, and they all came forward to congratulate him.
"Congratulations to Fellow Daoist Lu!"
"Joy and rejoice together!"
Everyone looked happy.
The removal of the Iron Claw King means that the shrimp swarm is leaderless. As long as you continue to harass them as before, you can lure out the Iron Claw King one by one and kill them one by one.
For the next half month, Lu Zhong was not in a hurry to go back, but stayed in the poisonous swamp and killed the iron crayfish.
According to the reward given by the Liu family, plus the usable parts of the iron crayfish, the benefits that can be obtained by killing an iron crayfish are around six to seven hundred spirit stones. It is rare to encounter such a dense group of monsters. Is there any reason to let it go casually?
After all, monster hunting has always been a huge profit. As long as there are enough monsters to kill, it is even more profitable than him making talisman formations.
…
tiebishan
The Liu family's land is still a construction site.
In the meeting hall where the main body had been completed but had not yet been approved, Lu Zhong saw Liu Yuhe. He looked exhausted, obviously he had been working hard on the construction of the clan area.
He steeled himself and took out a jade box from his sleeve.
Opening it, there were two pieces of gold and red jade inside, both of which were gilt and fire jade.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, this is the gold-plated fire jade you want to exchange for. Please take a look at it."
Lu Zhong took a look and found that the size of the fire jade in the box was a little abnormal. Ordinary fire jade was about the same size as a talisman paper, but the gilt fire jade in the box was obviously a circle larger. Two such pieces of gilt fire jade together would probably be worth the size.
Take three normal-sized pieces.
"this……"
Something was unusual, so he looked at Liu Yuhe hesitantly.
The other party cupped his hands and smiled:
"Thanks to Fellow Daoist Lu for getting rid of the Shrimp King, otherwise the mountain-protecting formation wouldn't have been built so quickly. We might have to spend a lot of money to hire Danjie monks to solve the problem, so I boldly asked the clan elders for instructions and specially gave Fellow Daoist two pieces in exchange.
A slightly larger piece of gilded fire jade as a token of thanks!"
As he said that, he gave me a familiar look.
Lu Zhong suddenly realized that this was the Liu Yuhe he knew.
He immediately said that there was a dance performance recently in Changlefang and invited the other party to come and enjoy it.
"Hahaha, easy to say, easy to say!" Liu Yuhe said with a smile, stroking his beard.
Suddenly, the ground shook.
Immediately afterwards, there was a loud rumbling sound outside.
"Something happened, let's go out and have a look!" Liu Yuhe's expression became condensed and he hurried out.
Lu Zhong looked outside and thought for a while before following him out.
At this moment, there was chaos outside.
Pieces of dark clouds kept coming from the northwest peaks, followed by the sound of flapping wings, as dense as thunder.
With the monk's amazing eyesight, Lu Zhong quickly saw Wu Yun's true face.
"Hiss, it's a black evil insect!"
Ever since the border changes, attacks by this insect near Lingyue Fairy City have never stopped.
But there has never been a swarm of insects of this size. There must be thousands of them in a large swarm. Even if only 1% of them are second-order monster insects, there must be at least dozens of second-order monster insects in it.
Black evil insect.
As he was thinking, the spiritual energy of the surrounding world began to stir.
Starting from the ground, a blue sky began to form.
Lu Zhong knew that this was the Liu family activating the mountain protection formation to resist the attack of the insect swarm.
"Can't be trapped here!"
The Liu family has a foundation here, but he doesn't.
He quickly threw the wooden spirit wind boat and turned it into a stream of cyan light. Before the blue sky gradually formed, it rushed out.
At this time, a swarm of insects flew nearby.
When he saw the flying boat, he immediately fluttered his wings and came closer, spitting out a stream of black arrows.
Lu Zhong did not get entangled with them, and controlled the flying boat to easily avoid them. Then he activated his wind-controlling powers and quickly pulled the flying boat to extremely high speed. He left Tiebei Mountain far away before the large insect swarm in the distance arrived.
It is worth mentioning that on the way there was a stream of light flying several times faster than the speed of the flying boat.
Lu Zhong watched carefully in Feizhou, which was a method called "flying sword to pass the message".
"The situation is urgent. The Liu family is asking for help from the city!"
When he saw this, he not only breathed a sigh of relief, but also thought that he was running fast.
Flying all the way to Lingyue Fairy City, I encountered a large fleet of flying shuttles speeding past. The aura they pulled out was quite bright, and it was obvious that they were running at full power, looking very anxious.
When you return to the city gate, you can still see groups of monks gathering.
"Not only did they send out a large fleet of shuttles, but they also gathered so many monks later. It seems like something big happened over there!"
Lu Zhong thought to himself and quickly entered the city.
…
Gilded fire jade, if refined with spiritual fire, will turn into a ball of jade liquid.
With a worried look on his face, Lu Zhong dropped molten jade liquid on the spiritual ring, and the latter immediately changed. First, a burst of bright golden light burst out, and then the golden light began to flash rhythmically, and after a short breath, it seemed to collapse. , begins to gather toward the center.
At this moment, the spiritual ring began to emit amazing spiritual energy.
"It really works!" Lu Zhong looked happy.
The process lasted for seven days, and finally a green-gold spiritual ring appeared.
After the blood sacrifice, he learned about the situation of the spiritual ring.
I don’t know whether it was the small spirit quenching array that played a role, or the two large pieces of gilded fire jade that had an extraordinary effect. The transformed spirit ring turned out to be a middle-grade spiritual weapon, and compared with the description of the spiritual weapon in the classics, it can be judged to be a middle-grade spiritual weapon. The kind with a more powerful spiritual weapon.
As for the magical power, Lu Zhong carefully explored it and found something strange on his face.
"How could it be the magical power of Qianfengqiang?"
Yes, wood fire makes wind!
Perhaps the effect of the gilded fire jade was so strong that it overshadowed the earth spirit crystal, and finally merged with the wood spirit crystal to form a powerful "dry wind gun" magical power. The effect is to condense wind with extremely strong penetrating power. Gun, and can be fired out, causing extreme damage to enemies.
Lu Zhong tried to input mana, and a dry wind gun quickly condensed on the surface of the spiritual ring.
It's said to be a gun, but it actually looks similar to a pointed cone, only slightly longer and thinner.
With a thought, the wind gun shot out immediately.
It sank directly into the ground, leaving only a hole as big as a finger.
"Hiss, I can't even reach the end of my spiritual consciousness!" Lu Zhong was surprised in his heart, thinking that the power of this dry wind gun is probably even higher than what he expected. No wonder the classics listed it as a "great magical power" ”.
"In this case, the spirit ring should also be renamed, let's call it Qianfeng Spirit Ring!"
Putting the spiritual ring on his hand, Lu Zhong looked left and right, loving it without hesitation.
In this way, he has three spiritual weapons with him.
The Qianfeng Spirit Ring is used for killing, and the Qingyang Mirror is mainly used to immobilize the body and destroy delusion. As for the weak attack and defense of the Black Lotus Pearl, it is basically used to make up the numbers. Generally speaking, it still lacks a defensive spiritual weapon.
Lu Zhong couldn't help laughing when he thought of this.
Spiritual weapons are rare, and it was a great chance that he could get two of them. How could he dare to ask for so many more.
