After clearing away the traces of his stay, Lu Zhong changed his direction.
His original plan was to go to the Sulan River area of Yanling Mountain. The terrain there was extremely complex and foggy all year round. It was a very suitable place for the growth of elixirs. Perhaps relying on the spirit-seeking rats could gain a lot of benefits.
But now, Lu Zhong decided to try his luck in Chenghuan Ridge.
Like the Sulan River area, Chengyuan Ridge is also part of Yanling Mountain.
In addition, there are three areas: Cangtieyuan, Youyun Valley, and Yanling Mountain. The five small areas added together make up the complete Yanling Mountain.
In the early morning, there is still mist in the mountains and forests.
With the help of the light body technique, Lu Zhong can easily move forward in complex terrain, and walking on mountain roads is like walking on flat ground.
Climbing over mountains and ridges, crossing streams and ravines.
Along the way, I also gained a lot.
In addition to digging up three more clumps of red damask grass, I also dug up several unrecognizable elixirs. Each one looked so energetic that you could tell it was extraordinary at first sight, and they could all be sold for a good price.
Leaning on an ancient pine on the cliff, Lu Zhong was ready to rest for a while.
"Roar!"
A beast roar suddenly came from the clouds and mist below.
Lu Zhong, who was alarmed, was not worried but overjoyed. Since he was strong enough to kill the monsters, each monster was equivalent to a walking spirit stone. After killing it, there would be great rewards.
Not to mention, now that he has cultivated Linghuan Dharmakaya, he is in urgent need of monster meat.
Monster meat is a great supplement and can also improve your physical condition.
It is indispensable for body-refining monks.
Rather than purchasing spiritual stones from outside, it is better to hunt one yourself and take it back.
"Let's take a look first and then talk..."
Lu Zhong stepped up his use of the two techniques of holding his breath and concealing himself, and his figure began to fall towards the deep valley below.
With the skill of lightening his body, he has no fear that he will fall to the ground and die.
It is true to be careful not to be blown away by the cross wind in the mountains.
After falling for more than thirty feet, and with the naked eye still seeing a vast expanse of white, a red shadow began to appear in the vision of the aura, and then gradually became clearer.
By estimating the demonic energy, Lu Zhong determined that it was a first-level demonic beast.
Lower your body and keep moving forward.
Through the heavy fog, among the rocks of the mountain stream, there is a giant thing moving slowly forward.
This is a monster beast that looks like a bear but not a bear. It stands up to a height of about ten feet. It exudes a breathtaking aura. Its body is covered with a layer of dark blue scales, and there are pieces of condensation of gum and soil hanging on it.
The forearms are long and powerful, with two muscular knots, containing astonishing power.
From time to time, it took out a fat fish from the stream, put it into its mouth, chewed it, and devoured it.
I relaxed my vigilance and didn't realize there was danger approaching from behind.
Lu Zhong used the cover of the thick white mist to keep walking in the blind spot of the monster's sight and slowly approached it.
Between his sleeves, the Qingshuang Sword slowly slid down.
With the help of the two techniques of holding breath and concealing, he has reduced the distance to less than ten feet.
at this time!
Light body technique, activate.
The Qingshuang Sword flashed with green light and shot towards the monster.
Almost at the same time, it also reacted.
Swinging its arms from left to right, there was only a clanging sound of gold and iron, and the monster directly swatted away the incoming Qingshuang Sword.
At this time, a figure appeared near it.
The monster didn't hesitate and swiped again. Unexpectedly, the human figure was just a mirror image.
Lu Zhong took advantage of the fact that the demonic beast had exhausted its remaining strength and had not yet developed any new strength. He rushed out of the mist at high speed, and without hesitation used the Chiyang method of swordsmanship, aiming at its most vulnerable belly. In the blink of an eye, it was swish.
The seven swords were slashed out, breaking through the solid scales and cutting a large hole directly into its belly, and the colorful internal organs were suddenly blurred.
The demonic beast howled, and its eyes suddenly turned red.
It began to struggle desperately and attack randomly.
Lu Zhong used his black crystal shield and steadily blocked the powerful palm, and then used the force to turn over and fly far away, keeping distance from the crazy monster.
At the same time, a mirror image talisman was used to let the mirror image attract the hatred of monsters.
About half an hour later, the beast frantically attacked the mirror image and finally died of exhaustion.
"Phew, I'm finally out of breath."
Lu Zhong stood next to the corpse of the fallen monster, with an excited smile on his face.
"It was worthwhile to go out this time. Not only did we harvest a large amount of elixirs, but we also killed a monster. The risks we took were worth it."
He began to decompose the body, starting with the most valuable layer of monster animal skin, which needed to be peeled off carefully without any damage, so as not to greatly reduce the value of the animal skin. Then came its teeth, bear paws, bear bones, bear bile, etc.
High value materials.
Finally, there are pieces of dark red bear meat.
Not a single bit of the bear meat was wasted, and Lu Zhong put it all into storage bags and took it away.
Now he is not what he used to be. He has three storage bags on his body, one from the "Third Madam" and the other from Mo Laosan. After loading all the bear meat, there is still a little more space, so he even packed a little in the water.
These things are perfect for feeding ghost rats.
Returned with a full load.
…
The sky is gradually getting darker.
Chenghuan Ridge is some distance away from Fang City, but fortunately there are downhill roads along the way.
Lu Zhong relied on the skill of lightening his body and rushed back when the sun was setting.
When queuing up to enter Fangshi, he saw a huge motorcade crowded beside the gate. Everyone in the motorcade looked lonely, and the female family members in the car kept sobbing softly.
The clothes these people wore looked familiar.
"Hey, isn't this the Qingyangmen's costume?"
Lu Zhong recognized the origin of the clothes and looked thoughtful in his eyes.
Could it be that... the Qingyang Sect was defeated?
This is unlikely.
How could such a huge Qingyang Sect be defeated so quickly?
Lu Zhongduo glanced at the motorcade for a few times. When it was almost his turn to pay the admission fee, a figure wearing Jinhong Sect uniforms suddenly flew over from a distance. He didn't know what she said to the guard.
Then, the huge city gate slowly opened.
The city shield also expanded a passage to allow two carriages to travel parallel.
The motorcade started and headed towards the interior of Fang City.
…
Returning to the bamboo forest courtyard, Lu Zhong counted the harvest.
First of all, there are the elixirs collected along the way. There are a total of six bushes of full-year red damask grass, which can be sold for more than twenty spirit stones. In addition, there are five unknown elixirs, which can also be sold for some spirit stones.
But compared to that monster, these are only small sums of money.
He estimated that if all the materials of the monster were sold, he should be able to sell more than two hundred spirit stones.
In total, the income is nearly three hundred spirit stones.
This time, it can catch up with the usual four or five months of income from making talismans.
"I was still worried about the spiritual stones before, but now I can finally practice quietly for a while."
Lu Zhong began to calculate how to use this spiritual stone, specifically how many Peiyuan Pills should be purchased, and how many Linghuan Secret Pills should be entrusted to be refined. Each item was calculated very clearly.
At this time, there was a sudden knock on the door outside.
