The vast East China Sea is so vast that even the monks on the eastern border of Chaoyang Continent don’t know how big it is!
Li Xuangang once read some records in an ancient book:
"Thousands of years ago, an ancestor in the Nascent Soul stage wanted to fly across the entire East China Sea. However, after going through all kinds of hardships and escaping the attacks of countless fifth-level and sixth-level monsters in the depths of the East China Sea, he was finally struck by a thunderbolt.
A barrier of clouds blocked it.
That barrier was so powerful that the breath of thunder and lightning inside was enough to frighten him. Therefore, this great monk in the Nascent Soul Stage had to stop his progress here and eventually returned to Chaoyang Continent."
Li Xuangang didn't know whether this record was true, but when he looked farther east in the East China Sea, he somewhat believed that there was such a barrier made of thunder and lightning thousands of miles away.
of.
But what is beyond that barrier? Is it the end of the world? Or is there something else?
After looking at it for a while, he looked back!
No matter what is on the other side of the East China Sea, it has no meaning to him now. He is just a small foundation-building monk. He is not even qualified to reach the thundercloud barrier, so how can he dare to try to find out what is behind the barrier?
An unknown land outside!
After dispelling the reverie in his heart, Li Xuangang returned to reality.
...
Now he and Zang Da were standing on a very small island, which was not very far from where Zang Er entered the water.
The distance is probably less than ten miles, and with Li Xuangang's escape skills, he can fly there in less than half an hour!
The reason why he chose such a close place is because he was afraid that if he encountered any danger, he would be able to rush there in time to provide assistance. If he was far away, he might not be able to make it in time!
...
In fact, Li Xuangang brought Zang Da and Zong Er to the East China Sea this time. His purpose was not only to let Zang Er help him go to the bottom of the sea to collect the bones of monsters, but he also had another purpose.
That is, he planned to take advantage of the time when Zang Er went to the sea to hunt monster beasts with Zang Da in this sea area.
For this reason, he had already gone to a store in Donghaifang City to buy fishy incense to attract monsters in the sea.
This kind of incense is red in color and has an extremely weird smell. It is even a bit unpleasant to the monks, but it has a certain attraction to the monsters in the sea.
Most of the casual cultivators in Donghaifang City who go out to sea to hunt monsters choose to use fishy incense as bait.
Of course, there are better ways to seduce the monsters in the sea than using fishy incense, but this one is the most cost-effective.
The incense Li Xuangang bought can burn for five days, but it only cost him ninety spiritual stones.
When everything was ready, he took Zhengda to find a suitable location on the island, and then took out the incense and lit it.
When the light red smoke from the latter began to drift towards the East China Sea and gradually became compatible with the sea water, Li Xuangang and Zheng Da also retreated some distance, and finally hid their bodies and breaths in a hidden place.
Got up.
Next, they just need to wait for the monsters in the sea to come here looking for the smell, and then kill them.
This method is also commonly used by other monks. Although the monks do not win every time they fight against the attracted monsters, no monk will give up this method.
Because for those casual cultivators who do not know the Four Arts of Cultivation, apart from using this method to hunt monsters in the sea on the East China Sea, they can only go to the remaining two-thirds of Limeng Island.
area to hunt the land monsters entrenched in it.
The latter is no less dangerous than the former, and even in terms of the probability of death alone, it is even greater.
Of course, you can also go there to search for wild spiritual plants, but in fact, the chance of encountering monsters when searching for spiritual plants is not low, and you still have to fight the monsters in the end.
And this is the reason why Li Xuangang chose to complete the introductory practice of Qing Ling Demon Transformation Technique first, and then brought Zheng Da and Zheng Er to the East China Sea.
After all, a strong body can effectively improve combat strength, and the improvement of combat strength can increase the chance of killing monsters in the sea, and can also better ensure the safety of Zang Da, Zang Er and oneself during the fight.
...
In this way, Li Xuangang and Zheng Da's hidden aura waited on the small island for almost a day, and then he saw the smelly incense working.
There are already some first-level and second-level monsters starting to gather in this direction one after another.
When they appear in the predetermined attack range, Zhengda will suddenly rush out and launch an attack to kill them.
After the killing was completed, they took their bodies back to the original place and continued to hide their bodies and auras.
These monsters were not of high grade, and Li Xuangang also wanted to train Zhengda in his ability to fight monsters, so he never took action and asked Zangda to deal with these monsters.
Looking at the corpses of these low-level monsters brought back by Zangda, Li Xuangang took out all the useful materials inside, preparing to exchange them for spiritual stones after returning to Donghaifang City.
As for the useless parts, he was going to throw them into the source space and turn them into spiritual energy.
...
In the next four days, I don't know whether Li Xuangang's luck is good or bad.
The fishy incense stick he planted has attracted dozens of monsters, but they are all low-level monsters, and there are very few second-level monsters. As for the third-level monsters equivalent to the foundation building realm,
Not even one of them was attracted.
This result made Li Xuangang feel a little disappointed, but on the other hand, it was a worthwhile trip to be able to safely harvest some materials for low-level monsters.
At least if you sell it in the market, you can get two to three hundred spirit stones.
So on the fifth day, when the incense stick used to attract sea beasts was almost burned out, Li Xuangang decided to leave here and go to the previous reef to wait for Zheng Er.
Because the time agreed with the latter is coming soon!
But just when he was about to let Zangda go get the remaining bit of incense, he suddenly found a huge black shadow swimming towards us from the distant sea.
Seeing this, Li Xuangang's expression remained unchanged, his eyes were slightly squinted, and while staring at the black figure getting closer and closer, he let Zhengda, who was just about to leave, come back to hide his aura.
After giving instructions to Zheng Da, he moved some distance forward himself. Moreover, he also took out the eight-handled Eight Spider Green Light Swords from the storage bag in advance.
"I didn't expect that when I was about to leave, I actually encountered a third-level monster!"
When Li Xuangang quietly extended his spiritual consciousness, he discovered that this sea beast only had a third-level low-grade cultivation level. This discovery made him even more delighted.
Soon, the third-level sea beast jumped out of the sea and rushed towards the incense stick inserted in a rock by Li Xuangang.
Only when it jumped out of the water did Li Xuangang recognize the type of this third-level low-grade monster!
This is a black-winged ray. The overall body looks roughly round, but what is more distinctive is the two transparent films growing on both sides of its body, and the about one foot long ray tail behind it.
.
Just when the black-winged ray just jumped out of the sea, Li Xuangang suddenly rushed out from five feet away and launched an attack.
The next moment, the eight Eight Spider Green Light Swords floating around him shot forward one after another, and the sharp sword energy even split some of the surrounding water vapor.
Seeing that this black-winged ray that had just jumped out of the water was about to fall under the attack of the eight-handled eight-spider green light sword, the next moment it actually relied on the two transparent films extending from both sides of its body to fly in the air.
He levitated and nimbly passed through the sword net woven by Li Xuangang.
However, Li Xuangang obviously did not think that he could take down this third-level low-grade Black-winged Ray with just one ordinary blow.
In fact, his purpose in using this attack was just to push it further away from the sea to prevent it from turning around and escaping.
Judging from the current situation, his goal has been achieved.
Taking advantage of the opportunity when the black-winged ray was avoiding the attack of the Eight Spiders' Green Light Sword, Li Xuangang had already leapt behind it, blocking its possible escape route.
The Black Winged Ray, who turned around, obviously already had a lot of intelligence, and he instantly saw Li Xuangang's intention.
This made it very angry. Originally, it was the highest level monster in this sea area. As long as it didn't run far, no other monster would threaten it. But just a few days ago, a monster of the same level came from nowhere.
Qingjiao, this green dragon will entangle and fight whenever it sees it.
That green dragon had rough skin and thick flesh, and he was no match for him despite being beaten several times.
I originally wanted to see what the smell that attracted me was, and then stay away from this sea area and the green dragon.
But I didn't expect to be ambushed here again by this human monk of the same level!
This made the black-winged ray very angry, so it did not intend to make things right. It just happened to be able to take out all the anger it received from the green dragon on the human monk who dared to offend it.
Li Xuangang, who was confronting him, naturally didn't know that so many thoughts were flashing through his mind at that moment, but he could clearly sense that his mood was beginning to become very unstable.
Although he was a little confused about this, he actually didn't care much.
