At this moment, Chen Shaojun's aura surged, and he looked like a god. He stretched out his hand to grab the star core weapon above his head, and with just one step, he appeared above the boneless bird's head in an instant. The huge star core in his hand was retracted by the boneless bird's sword bone.
Before that, a sudden blow hit the boneless bird's head hard.
The power of this blow was extremely huge. The moment the star core fell, the void exploded, air waves roared, and even the ground beneath his feet shook. Only a mournful cry was heard. The boneless bird was hit hard, and all the bones in his body were shaken.
They were all smashed off and scattered in all directions, and the remaining huge head also flew more than ten feet away before exploding with a bang and turning into ashes all over the sky.
Among the black ashes, a black and gold crystal core also fell from the sky.
One hit kill!
"call!"
Chen Shaojun let out a long sigh and slowly fell from the air. His face was pale, his steps were sloppy, and his overall strength had dropped by several levels.
If the original Chen Shaojun's strength skyrocketed and reached the eighth level of the Golden Qi realm, and his whole body was so powerful that he looked like a god, then at this moment, Chen Shaojun's strength dropped, and even the fourth level of the Blood Yang realm was somewhat unsustainable.
"The martial arts light crown is strong, but this kind of power consumption is too outrageous. Just one blow consumed more than 80% of my power. If a powerful opponent comes at this time, I won't explain it here."
Chen Shaojun's heart was throbbing at this time.
That blow not only consumed all the power in his body, but also greatly consumed his mental power, physical strength, and energy. It felt as if a part of his whole person had been stripped away.
If the martial arts crown is regarded as a cauldron, then the warrior is the fuel burning in the cauldron. The stronger the power, the greater the consumption.
"This martial arts crown is indeed a double-edged sword. No wonder martial arts practitioners will never use it easily unless necessary."
Chen Shaojun said secretly.
With a thought in his mind, Chen Shaojun quickly closed his eyes, and at the same time began to extract the high-grade ghost wolf crystal core from the sacred tree, burned it violently, and then absorbed it into his body.
In just a moment, Chen Shaojun's strength returned to its original state. He could recover quickly in this way. Among warriors at the same level, I am afraid that only Chen Shaojun could do it.
However, despite this, the mental, physical and energy consumed is not so easy to recover.
"Ape Lan Yue still has one chance to use it, so you must use it carefully."
Chen Shaojun said secretly.
"Wow, you actually defeated it!"
At this moment, an exaggerated voice came from his ears, and Xiaowei passed by Chen Shaojun almost in a flash and rushed to the place where the Boneless Bird was blown up.
"The Boneless Bird, this is the Boneless Bird! If you hadn't killed it, it would have become a high-level ghost clan in the future."
The little snail tossed about in the gray ashes for a while, and quickly pulled out the black and gold crystal core, then held it on top of its head and headed towards Chen Shaojun.
"The crystal core of this boneless bird must be of great help to you. Considering how hard I have worked so hard, can you let me take a sip of the energy of that sacred tree?"
Xiaowo raised her head with a flattering look on her face, and Chen Shaojun sneered and refused ruthlessly.
If he just takes a sip of a crystal core, his sacred tree will soon be sucked back to the dead branch. Moreover, he was the one who killed the boneless bird all by himself. The reminders from this guy Xiaowei were only afterthoughts and did not follow.
It's pretty good in comparison.
"All right."
Xiaowo immediately lowered his head. He could have taken advantage of Chen Shaojun's happiness to blackmail him and get some benefits, but his hope was probably lost now.
But just for a moment, Xiaowu became excited again, his eyes turned wildly, not knowing what he was thinking.
After the battle was over, Chen Shaojun felt relaxed and began to look at the crystal core of the boneless bird in his hand.
"The sword energy is so strong, it is indeed much higher than the ordinary ghost sparrow."
Chen Shaojun said secretly.
The energy in this crystal core is indeed much denser. Although it is also a weapon (sword energy is a type of weapon), the difference between the boneless bird and the ordinary ghost bird is like ice and water.
"With this high-level Boneless Bird Crystal Core, the time it takes me to reach the Soldier Qi Realm can be greatly reduced."
Chen Shaojun said secretly.
The boneless bird's crystal core is indeed precious, but for Chen Shaojun, one boneless bird's crystal core is obviously not enough. If he gets a few more, or dozens more ghost bird crystal cores, he can almost attack the army.
The mood is up.
The more troops accumulated, the stronger the foundation, and the greater the benefits of the final breakthrough. Chen Shaojun slowly raised his head and his eyes were immediately fixed on the mountains in front. There must be other ghost creatures here, as long as there are boneless sparrows here.
If he finds more sixth- and seventh-level ghost creatures, he can successfully break through.
"Walk!"
After a while, after almost resting, Chen Shaojun took the snail and stepped into the mountains in front of him.
Before entering, Chen Shaojun also put a few of the slenderest and sharpest sword bones of the Boneless Bird into the sacred tree space. To some extent, these sword bones were extremely sharp flying swords.
Chen Shaojun's judgment was correct. There were many ferocious ghost beasts on the mountains. Although the second form of boneless sparrows were rare, there were many ordinary ghost sparrows. Chen Shaojun was exploring the mountains while hunting ghost sparrows. In about an hour, he actually
He successfully hunted more than twenty ghost sparrows.
Although it was difficult for Chen Shaojun to deal with the boneless bird, it was much easier to deal with this ordinary ghost bird. He put all twenty-six ghost bird crystal cores into the sacred tree.
One person and one snail kept going deeper, and after another half an hour, suddenly——
"Um?"
Chen Shaojun's eyelids twitched and he suddenly came back to his senses. At that moment, the sacred tree in his mind suddenly jumped. This was a reaction that only occurred when a treasure was discovered.
Chen Shaojun had a thought in his mind, and soon his mind became one, and he communicated with the sacred tree in his mind.
The next moment, under the special induction of the sacred tree, Chen Shaojun suddenly saw a large area of light flashing.
Shenmu has been able to sense treasures before, but they were all light spots one by one. This is the first time that treasures have appeared in Chen Shaojun's senses in the form of large areas of light.
"This is a mineral vein, and... it's a ghost crystal mineral vein!"
Seeing the familiar red light in the Shenmu sensor, Chen Shaojun was shocked and his eyes widened suddenly.
Chen Shaojun originally entered this deep mountain just to hunt ghost creatures and obtain weapon energy crystal cores, but unexpectedly, there seemed to be a huge ghost crystal vein hidden here.
"No way?"
When Chen Shaojun came to his senses, he was overjoyed.
Ghost crystals have a great effect on improving the martial arts crown, but similarly, if you use ghost crystals to enhance the crown of light during battle, the consumption will be very alarming. The ghost crystals accumulated by Chen Shaojun in the early stage were used up after just one use. Originally, Chen Shaojun wanted to
He was trying to get amazing ghost crystals, but unexpectedly, there seemed to be an unknown ghost crystal vein right now.
The search ability of Shenmu is limited in scope. Fortunately, Chen Shaojun walked here, otherwise he really wouldn't be able to find it.
The most important thing is - this is a mine!
Chen Shaojun's expression was extremely excited.
In the abandoned mines before, what Chen Shaojun found were just some neglected residual mines. Even so, Chen Shaojun gained a lot. But now this area looks like completely undeveloped primitive mineral veins.
This means that what Chen Shaojun can gain from it will be far beyond imagination.
"Let's go over and take a look."
Along the way, Chen Shaojun's senses became clearer and clearer. Although he discovered the ghost crystal veins, Chen Shaojun also discovered a problem. The mines were buried deep in the mountains, and the mountains were extremely huge. It was not easy to find the entrance.
.
"Xiaowo, can your escape ability take us there?"
Chen Shaojun turned around abruptly and came up with Xiaowo's idea.
"Boy, don't even think about it. You really think I'm your coolie, and even if you escape to the ground, you can't get there. This is not an ordinary stone. There is an energy barrier on the surface of all mineral veins, which will interfere with my
Escape."
Snail said:
"And why go to all the trouble? Can't we just walk in?"
Before the voice fell, a misty brilliance suddenly burst out from its body, and actually directly projected the phantom of the mountain range.
Just halfway up the mountain range, a spot of light appeared, revealing a dark passage.
"There is a direct passage, why didn't you tell me earlier?!"
Chen Shaojun was overjoyed. He was a snail who could speak his mind and be silent, but he did have some abilities.
Although Chen Shaojun's sacred tree is extremely powerful and can automatically sense the hidden treasures in the ground, it cannot find such secret passages. Instead, it is Xiaowo. Chen Shaojun doesn't know how it does it.
"Don't be too happy yet. There is a passage, which means that the mineral veins here have either been discovered long ago, or they are guarded by some dangerous giant beasts. Anyway, they are definitely not ownerless things."
Small wormhole.
"Haha, go over there first and then talk."
Chen Shaojun laughed. No matter whether he was guarded by ghosts or giant beasts, he would never return empty-handed. And even if he couldn't be defeated, wouldn't there be Xiaowo who could escape?
In just a moment, Chen Shaojun reached the passage on the mountainside.
"It's really hidden enough."
Chen Shaojun just glanced at it and frowned slightly.
There are a large number of special ghost plants growing near the cave, each one shading the area. If it weren't for Xiaowo's special ability, Chen Shaojun would not have been able to detect them.
Chen Shaojun pondered for a moment and quickly entered the passage. This passage was much larger than expected. The top of the cave was more than a foot high. When Chen Shaojun walked in it, he felt that it was unusually wide, but the cave walls were slightly slippery.
“So fishy!”
Chen Shaojun's nose twitched, and he immediately felt a fishy smell coming from the cave:
"It's a ghost python!"
Chen Shaojun's heart trembled, and he immediately recognized it. During the previous thunder tribulation, he had had close contact with the ghost python.
Ghost pythons are extremely powerful. The scales on their surface are very hard and are directly the strongest layer of armor. Even flying swords may not be able to threaten them.
If there is really a ghost python entrenched, you must be extremely careful.
