Chapter 62: The First Tier 3 Monster Beast Encountered
Li Xuangang faced this third-level flame talisman, but he was actually quite confused.
Although in the past two years, he was able to save some spiritual stones because he didn't have to buy himself Spring Dew Pills for cultivation.
And he also received some reward for refining the Spring Dew Pill for the Corpse Sect.
But while getting these spiritual stones, Li Xuangang also spent a lot of money. For example, cultivating corpses and purchasing spiritual plant seeds.
So it seems that Li Xuangang receives a lot of spiritual stones every month, but in fact, in the past few years, he has not had much surplus of spiritual stones.
However, Li Xuangang was not willing to give up just yet. This kind of third-level talisman was hard to come by, and it might be a life-saving tool at critical moments.
So after Li Xuangang thought about it for a while, he tried to ask:
"I wonder if you can tell me the specific price of this third-level flame talisman?"
This member of the Wang family heard Li Xuangang's inquiry and replied politely:
"Five hundred spiritual stones."
Li Xuangang was not surprised when he heard this price. This was the normal selling price for third-level talismans.
However, he still asked:
"I wonder if you can make it cheaper?"
The member of the Wang family also showed a hint of apology, and then said:
"Fellow Daoist Li, please forgive me. This third-level talisman was consigned by an elder in the clan, and he also set the price. I really have no right to change it."
After hearing this, Li Xuangang also knew that he might not be able to buy this talisman at a cheaper price.
Li Xuangang stared at the talismans in front of him for a while, then gritted his teeth and said to this member of the Wang family:
"I want this third-level flame talisman... In addition, give me a second-level black ice talisman."
Since he had already spent so many spiritual stones, Li Xuangang didn't care about spending more.
When Li Xuangang walked out of Wang's shop, he had less than a hundred spiritual stones left on him.
With these talismans on his body, Li Xuangang made some preparations for the next operation into the Hengduan Mountains.
The most important thing is to make yourself feel at ease.
In fact, the higher the level of the talisman, the better. Li Xuangang knew that with his own cultivation level, he could only cast one third-level talisman at most. Even if he had more third-level talismans on his body, he would not have the extra spiritual power to activate it.
Li Xuangang estimated that after he finished casting a third-level talisman, the remaining spiritual power would only be able to activate a second-level talisman.
Without the spirit stone on his body, Li Xuangang no longer had the interest to continue shopping in Wujiangfang City.
After wandering around the shops selling spiritual plants, Li Xuangang returned to his cave and began to practice with the Spring Dew Pill.
...
Two days later, Li Xuangang woke up from his practice.
Today has come to the day agreed with Uncle Seven. Li Xuangang got up from the stone bed where he practiced and entered the Jieyuan space for the last time.
In the days to come, Li Xuangang knew that it would not be convenient for him to enter the Jieyuan space at any time, so he had to make some preparations in advance.
By the time Li Xuangang finished handling matters in the Jieyuan space, the sky had already darkened.
After Li Xuangang came out of the cave, he hurried to the family's weapon refining pavilion.
This time, the people led by the Li family into the Hengduan Mountains were the seventh uncle Li Changzhi and the third uncle Li Qinghuan.
There are two foundation-building monks leading them, which makes the Li family feel at ease.
When Li Xuangang arrived at the family's weapon refining pavilion, he found that the rest of the clan had arrived and he was the only one left.
Li Xuangang smiled sheepishly at the tribesmen, and then walked into the team with a hint of apology.
Standing next to Li Xuankun, Li Xuankun whispered to Li Xuangang:
"Brother Ninth, why did you come so late? Uncle Seventh almost lost his temper."
Li Xuangang also lowered his voice and said:
"I had something to do in the cave, so I was delayed for a while. Didn't I miss anything?"
Li Xuankun said:
"That's not true. The seventh uncle just emphasized some precautions when entering the Hengduan Mountains this time. The rest are just trivial matters."
Seeing that the last clan member had arrived, Li Changzhi waved his hand and led the vast number of Li clan members to the outside of Wujiangfang City.
This black team basically represents half of the strength of the Li family in Taiqiu Mountain.
Even though the Li family's team is large, it is inconspicuous on the outskirts of Wujiangfang City at this time.
Because there are many teams of the same size as them, or even larger.
Team after team of monks marched towards the Hengduan Mountains. Li Xuangang followed the team of tribesmen and found that there should be no less than five thousand monks entering the Hengduan Mountains.
Most of them were disciples of the Corpse Ghost Sect. Li Xuangang also saw three Golden Core Stage monks on the Corpse Ghost Sect's flying boat.
Li Xuangang knew that the Corpse Ghost Sect wanted to end this protracted battle this time, so the scale would definitely be larger.
But he didn't expect that the Corpse Ghost Sect not only sent more than 3,000 disciples, but also dispatched three elders of the Golden Core Stage.
Seeing this vast scene, Li Xuangang was extremely glad that he bought those talismans in Wujiangfang City two days ago.
Li Xuangang heard Li Xuankun say more than once that the Corpse Ghost Sect had just arrived in the Hengduan Mountains and was eager to open up the situation.
There were also many monks involved at that time, and the Corpse Ghost Sect invested a lot of monks.
During that time, the entire Hengduan Mountains was filled with battles between life and death.
That time, Li Xuangang didn't catch up, but at the end of this battle, he couldn't run away after all.
The teams of monks from each major family entered the Hengduan Mountains in an orderly manner, and then after going a certain distance, they headed towards the area assigned to their families by the Corpse Ghost Sect.
The same goes for the Li family. Under the leadership of the seventh uncle Li Changzhi, more than eighty Li family members headed to the south of the Hengduan Mountains.
The intelligence given to them by the Corpse Ghost Sect said that only a few third-level monsters had been detected in that area, but Li Changzhi did not dare to be careless.
Because even if the information given by the Corpse Ghost Sect is true, those monsters will not stay in one place forever.
If there are monsters from other areas that sense something is wrong and accidentally run into the area that your family is responsible for from other places, there is nothing you can do.
Moreover, they haven't found out the specific location of these third-level monsters yet, so they are very likely to run into them.
So on the way, Li Changzhi warned the tribesmen several times not to act without authorization.
After so many years, the area cleared by the Corpse Ghost Sect has gone deep enough.
Li Xuangang's family team traveled for half a month before arriving at the area his family was responsible for clearing.
At the last moment of entering this area, the seventh uncle Li Changzhi reminded the tribesmen for the last time.
The Li clan members naturally knew the danger of this operation, so they did not find the Seventh Uncle Li Changzhi too verbose, but listened very carefully to what he said about the precautions.
Their action this time was equivalent to opening up a new battlefield. A single oversight could cost their lives, so they had no choice but to be careless.
...
Five days have passed, and since the monks of the Li family entered this area, they have not moved separately.
Although doing this will slow down the speed of eliminating the monsters, it is safe.
Li Xuangang only encountered some first- and second-order monsters along the way. In front of the Li family's team, these monsters naturally posed no threat.
Except for encountering a group of second-level wolf monsters that caused some trouble for everyone, the rest of the monsters were almost completely eliminated by them with overwhelming force.
At night after five days, the Li clan rested in a temporarily opened cave and prepared to set out again the next day.
Li Xuangang sat in the corner with his eyes closed, relaxing and thinking about what he had gained in the past few days.
Since his corpse refining has reached the final stage of the sixth level of Qi refining, in order to successfully break through to the seventh level of Qi refining, the ordinary second-level monster blood essence has no effect. The second-level high-grade monster he encountered, Li Xuangang
There was no chance to take action at all, so he didn't collect much demonic beast essence and blood for corpse refining in the past few days.
However, many of the corpses of the many monsters killed by the clansmen were not taken away, so this was an advantage for Li Xuangang. He picked out the corpses of the second-level monsters inside and put them all into the storage bag.
Only five days after he came here, Li Xuangang's storage bag was already more than half full, and this was the result of his picking and choosing.
Although there were many monsters encountered in the past few days, there was no danger, so none of the Li family members were harmed, only a few were slightly injured accidentally.
In this way, Li Changzhi led his tribe forward for two more days, and finally stopped not far from a spiritual mountain.
This was the first level three monster they encountered when entering this area.
After the third uncle Li Qinghuan was the first to notice the existence of this third-level monster, he alerted the family team. Then everyone retreated a few miles under the signal of the seventh uncle Li Changzhi.
Before deciding to launch an attack on the third-level monster in this spiritual mountain, the third uncle Li Qinghuan explained the situation of this hill in detail to the tribesmen.
Li Qinghuan stood in front of the tribe, collected his thoughts for a moment, and then said:
"I have already investigated and found that there is a first-order high-grade spiritual vein on the Lingshan Mountain in front. There is a third-order tiger monster equivalent to the early stage of foundation building entrenched on it. And what is even more troublesome is that this third-order tiger monster has gathered
There are a lot of monsters on this spiritual mountain. I roughly checked it out and found that there are no less than a hundred first- and second-order monsters.
So if we want to eradicate this tiger demon, it will probably take a lot of effort."
"As for the specific plan, I have already discussed it with Uncle Qi. This operation should be done sooner rather than later, so tomorrow we will launch an attack on Lingshan where this third-level tiger demon is located."
After Li Qinghuan finished speaking, Li Changzhi continued:
"You have all gone through many battles in the Hengduan Mountains. I don't need to remind you of the dangers involved. In tomorrow's battle, please be careful and cooperate."
After everyone expressed their understanding, Li Changzhi called Li Qingyang, Li Qinghuan, and Li Qingjing out of the cave.
Li Xuangang is probably discussing the specific details of tomorrow's battle.
