Who cares about childhood sweethearts when they can become immortals?

Chapter 64 Brother Lu, open the door!

On the third day, when Xu Ji came to see Niu Yong again, Niu Yong took Xu Ji to a mountain forest contracted by the old Xitian Agency outside Fengling Mansion.

This mountain forest was specially contracted by the old Xitian Organization to cultivate monster beasts. There is no dedicated person to take care of the monster beasts here, just like an ordinary mountain forest.

The only difference is that every once in a while, the old Xitian Institution will send people to clean out the monsters that can reach the sixth level of Qi training to ensure that no monsters will appear in the later stages of Qi training, thus ensuring the safety of the students who enter.

Just after leaving Fengling Mansion, Xu Ji faintly noticed something was wrong. It seemed that the closer he got to the wilderness, the spiritual energy in the air was stronger than in the city.

"Do you find it strange? Why is the spiritual energy in the mountains and wilderness stronger than in the city?" Niu Yong saw Xu Ji's surprised expression and guessed what Xu Ji was thinking.

Xu Ji nodded. In the spiritual world, the human race is strong and the demon race is weak. If there is abundant spiritual energy in the mountains and forests, then the Immortal Alliance should build cities in places with abundant spiritual energy instead of giving up such places to the demon race in vain.

Niu Yong smiled and explained: "Aura is born from spiritual veins. Whether it is a continent or a city, there are many spiritual veins buried under it for the cultivation and use of monks in the continent or city."

"The reason why you can't feel the spiritual energy in Zhou Mansion every day is because Zhou Mansion has arranged a large array in the spiritual veins to draw the spiritual energy in the spiritual veins and transport it to the breathing room and training room, so that the concentration of spiritual energy can be artificially controlled. , Reduce the loss of escaping spiritual energy."

"Of course, this is not just the case in Zhoufu, but also in ordinary cities. The spiritual energy of the spiritual veins is controlled through large formations."

"But the spiritual veins under the mountains and forests are not controlled by the formation, so the spiritual energy escapes in the air, so the spiritual energy appears to be more intense than in Zhou Mansion."

Xu Ji understood, if that was the case, it would make sense.

All the way to the mountain forest contracted by the old Xitian Organization, Niu Yong introduced: "This place is located in the corner of the Yunwu Mountains. Although there is no spiritual vein, the spiritual energy emanating from the Yunwu Mountains alone is enough for the survival and cultivation of monsters in the early stage of Qi training. , occasionally there will be monsters that break through the upper limit and reach the middle stage of Qi training."

"Your mission today is to try to track and hunt any monster in the middle stage of Qi training here."

Niu Yong looked at Xu Ji expectantly, even though the encyclopedia of basic knowledge about common low-level monsters he had given to Xu Ji had detailed records on how to track each monster, and Xu Ji had also written them all down.

But even so, mastering knowledge and applying knowledge are two completely different things. Especially in a completely unfamiliar mountain forest, it is not difficult to find traces of monsters by yourself.

"Do you need me to give you some tips or help?" Niu Yong asked.

Xu Ji shook his head and said, "Teacher Niu, I want to try it on my own first."

Niu Yong nodded and stopped talking. From now on, unless Xu Ji is in danger, he will not take action. As for whether he can find the monster beast in the middle stage of Qi training, and how to win after finding the monster beast, it all depends on Relying on Xu Ji's own ability.

"The monsters in the middle stage of Qi training should be very rare in this mountain forest contracted by the old Xitian Organization. According to the instinct of monsters, they will occupy places with more spiritual energy."

"And this mountain forest has no spiritual veins. The spiritual energy is all escaping from the spiritual energy on the Yunwu Mountains. So there is no need to waste time on the periphery and go directly to the depths near the Yunwu Mountains."

Xu Ji thought in his mind and rushed towards the depths of the mountain forest without any hesitation. Although he was extremely fast, he made almost no sound.

Even if he bumped into a monster along the way, Xu Ji quietly passed by without revealing his traces and did not attack the monster. Xu Ji made it clear that his goal this time was to track down and kill the monsters in the middle stage of Qi training, so he naturally did not want to waste his spiritual energy on other monsters he encountered on the road.

All the way to the depths of the mountain forest, even the air seemed to be somewhat quiet. Seeing this, Xu Ji naturally became more cautious.

At this time, Xu Ji noticed the traces scratched by sharp claws on the tree trunk not far away. The traces had dried up and seemed to have existed for a long time, but there were still traces of being rubbed by some creature under the tree.

Monster beasts temper their bodies with spiritual energy, and their digestion capabilities are far superior to ordinary animals. Therefore, even if they eat and drink, they rarely leave any residue. Therefore, when monster beasts declare their territory, they do not leave feces and urine like ordinary animals, but leave them directly. own breath.

The rubbed tree trunk in front of Xu Ji is the aura left by the monster announcing its territory. Monsters who think they are inferior in strength will naturally stay away from it after sensing it, and do not dare to invade.

"There are sharp claw marks, tough fur, and the size is about two meters..." Xu Ji touched the trunk of the tree, and various memories were passing through his mind, analyzing the monsters that might appear here.

“Anisoclaw or Iron-armed Monkey?”

Xu Ji finally analyzed the two most likely results. The former, although the alien clawed deer looks somewhat similar to a deer, has sharp claws and is an omnivorous monster.

The latter's iron-armed ape is a pure carnivorous monster. If it were encountered in the first round of the immortal test, it should be a monster at the level of the finale. It is most likely to be a fifth-level Qi-training monster. There is a small chance that it will be a sixth-level Qi-training monster.

Xu Ji guessed that there was a high probability that it might be a different-clawed deer, so he decided to look for nearby water sources first. According to the introduction in the previous book, different-clawed deer more often live near water sources.

Soon, Xu Ji found a stream not far away through his keen sense of the wind. Xu Ji did not dare to be careless, and continued to hide his figure, searching upstream along the stream.

The perception of monsters is often sharper than that of humans, so if Xu Ji wants to take the lead when discovering monsters, he must always be careful whether his actions will expose his traces.

"really!"

Before Xu Ji walked far, he noticed a deer-shaped monster lying near the stream in the distance, wagging its tail comfortably.

Although it is in the shape of a deer, its whole body seems to be engraved with ferocious ghost patterns. Every hair is standing up like a steel needle. Its original hooves have grown sharp claws, and its tail is waving like a whip. There were bursts of sound breaking through the air.

"It's about two meters tall, with ghost patterns on its body and hair like steel needles. This is not an ordinary alien-clawed deer, but an alien-clawed deer king with five levels of Qi training."

Xu Ji quickly deduced the strength of the Alien Claw Deer in front of him. Although the task assigned to him by Niu Yong only required hunting any mid-stage Qi training monster, but now that the Alien Claw King was right in front of him, what reason did he have? miss?
  Fighting with monsters of the same realm as yourself will further improve your training.

"The Alien-clawed Deer King is a five-level Qi-trained monster. It attacks with claws, steel thorns, iron tails, and wind-based spells. Its defense is not weak. So..." Xu Ji recalled the story about the Alien-clawed Deer King in his mind. All the information, thinking about the possibilities of what will happen in the next battle.

After being fully prepared, the blue-white spiritual energy condensed in Xu Ji's hand again, and the wind needle that condensed into substance appeared in Xu Ji's palm again. With a flick of his finger, the wind needle that condensed into substance went straight towards the alien who was still lying on the ground. The claw deer king's back door burst through the air!

Whoosh!
  Brother Lu, open the door!
