The Immortal Way is Fierce

Chapter 262 Harvest
The Dharma boat floats directly above the entire archipelago. Zhang Jingyuan is like an old farmer full of harvest joy, looking down at the entire island with a smile in his eyes.

In Zhang Jingyuan's eyes, after the wind blows on this archipelago, the ups and downs of the wheat fields will be harvested by him without any substantial difference and become the material for his growth.

After all, you must know that this is an archipelago. Every time it is this time, a large number of phantom cicadas will come to shed their shells and transform. There may be hundreds of phantom cicadas in the golden elixir stage alone, let alone the number of phantom cicadas. There are some phantom cicadas in the Nascent Soul stage.

And because this place is considered the ancestral land of the Phantom Cicada and is filled with the aura of the Phantom Cicada, no other groups of monsters will break in easily.

This also means that before the arrival of large-scale phantom cicadas, the archipelago below is one of the few safe places in the vast sea of ​​​​stars.

Therefore, Zhang Jingyuan safely handed over the control of the Dharma Boat to Master Ji Feng again, and once again seized the opportunity to practice hard.

For him, improving his realm is always the most important thing.

With this opportunity to atone for his sins, Master Ji Feng naturally patted his chest and almost made a Taoist oath, saying that he would never make any mistakes this time. If he did, he could be tortured by Zhang Jingyuan's soul refining.

Seeing Master Ji Feng's appearance, Zhang Jingyuan twitched his lips, and then he sank into the Styx Rebirth Tower without any hesitation to practice.

In fact, Zhang Jingyuan didn't care at all whether what Master Ji Feng said was true, or whether it was simply against his will.

He has always been a person who doesn't care about his performance. After all, no one is perfect when it comes to his heart.

No matter how much Master Ji Feng hated him, he would not torture Master Ji Feng as long as Master Ji Feng handled the things he told him well and did not deliberately make any mistakes.

After all, as long as Master Ji Feng continues to work conscientiously for him, is there anything worth caring about if he is not sincerely impressed by him?

Besides, to be fair, if he fell into the situation of Master Ji Feng, even if the main reason was himself, he would still have soaring resentment deep in his heart.

This is human nature. Since ancient times, few are willing to accept defeat, while many are unwilling to do so.

As time passed bit by bit, after about half a year of practicing in the Styx Rebirth Pagoda, Zhang Jingyuan suddenly heard the excited voice of Master Ji Feng suddenly floating in the sky above the Styx River.

Ever since Zhang Jingyuan opened the Heavenly Palace and became the Master of the Golden Pill, as expected, the flow of time in the Styx Tower has slowed down again. The ratio between the Styx Tower and the outside world has reached an astonishing six to one.

Therefore, the half year Zhang Jingyuan spent cultivating in the afterlife of Styx was only one month in the outside world.

Appearing in the Dharma boat, Zhang Jingyuan saw two phantom cicadas with perfect foundations waving their thin cicada wings and landing on an island in the archipelago below.

What's surprising is that one of the phantom cicadas has an astonishing demonic aura, and is only a hair away from reaching the golden elixir stage. If nothing unexpected happens, it is very likely to become a golden elixir stage monster during this transformation.

In this way, this transformed body is not only the body of the phantom cicada in the golden elixir stage, but also the first shell of the golden elixir stage, which contains most of the accumulation of this phantom cicada in this life.

Its value is much more expensive than the body of an ordinary golden elixir stage phantom cicada, and is worth at least eight hundred spirit stones.

The Phantom Cicada transforms every thirty years. It has to undergo countless transformations in its lifetime, and without exception, every promotion occurs during transformation.

In Zhang Jingyuan's previous life, he had read a research slip on the Phantom Cicada in the library of the capital of the Zhongming Galaxy. It said that if a Phantom Cicada in the Foundation Stage wants to be promoted to the Golden Core Stage, it needs to undergo ten transformations. From the golden elixir stage to the Nascent Soul stage, twenty transformations are required.

Even though the lifespan of monster beasts is generally much longer than that of humans, it is obviously very difficult to advance to a higher realm through so many transformations.

But fortunately, as long as the accumulation in these thirty years is enough, it can transform once every thirty years, and basically when the number of transformations is reached, it will definitely be promoted to a higher level.

This also means that the Phantom Cicada has always had a steady stream of members to maintain the size of the entire group.

However, this is also the reason why the Phantom Cicada can be active in the middle zone of the Abyss Star Sea and is quite powerful.

"The transformation of the phantom cicada usually takes five days, and then it will shed its body. This is the time for me to take action."

Seeing the bursts of curiosity in Master Ji Feng's eyes, Zhang Jingyuan said lightly.

Upon hearing this, Master Ji Feng quickly made an expression of admiration, as if there were stars twinkling in his eyes.

But after listening to what Zhang Jingyuan said, he was once again convinced that Zhang Jingyuan was indeed taken away by that evildoer. Otherwise, he could just drive the Dharma boat to stroll in the vast sea of ​​stars and go in and out of uninhabited areas. It can be proved that Zhang Jingyuan's talent is indeed outstanding and his strength is unpredictable. But this knowledge must be deeply accumulated.

The accumulation of this knowledge is obviously not something that a young monk should have. After all, even an old man like him, who has lived for five or six hundred years in the world of cultivation, does not have it.

Although he was also a Jindan cultivator before, he was really unfamiliar with this Fanyuan Xinghai.

The reason is very simple. This Fanyuan Star Sea is really too dangerous. Although the benefits are great, the risk of falling is also great.

And even if he didn't come to Fanyuan Xinghai, he would still have become a golden elixir Dzogchen monk, or even a false infant monk. If it hadn't been for a bad move back then, he might have become the famous Nascent Soul monk now.

But among those who practiced at the same time as him and were determined to come to the Starry Sea, how many could compare to him, and how many were lost in the Starry Sea?
After waiting quietly for five days, I saw that with a flash of demonic light, the phantom cicada on the island was officially promoted to the golden elixir stage demon beast, and a round big elixir floated from its inner abdomen. Above the head, a gray-black light instantly infiltrated the surrounding area.

A vast and tyrannical aura soared into the sky and swept in all directions. Even the companions next to him had to lie down on the ground to show their admiration for the superior monster.

After a few breaths, this golden elixir-stage phantom cicada took the golden elixir into its belly, preparing to eat the body it had transformed into to increase its own strength.

After all, this shed body contains most of its previous strength. Once eaten, it can help it quickly get through the period of weakness when it has just been promoted to Golden Core.

However, at this moment, the Phantom Cicada opened its mouth slightly and was about to swallow the body that was close to its mouth.

A mighty, unstoppable, and indestructible force suddenly descended from the sky, pressing it firmly to the ground. Its entire body, including its wings, mouth, and limbs, could only remain motionless.

There was even a huge sense of fear filling its heart.

Just when the phantom cicada was extremely frightened, Zhang Jingyuan suddenly floated down from the boat. He glanced at the phantom cicada, and with a move of his hand, the body left by the phantom cicada fell into his hands. , and exudes an audacious and sufficient demonic power.

After casually putting the body into the storage bag, Zhang Jingyuan didn't even look at the phantom cicada. He focused all his attention on the phantom cicada that was still trying to transform.

The most precious thing about the body of this phantom cicada is the pair of cicada wings.

Although as a part of the Golden Core stage monster, this cicada wing has nothing to do with fragility, but compared with other monster materials, it seems a bit more delicate, so it is still received directly in the storage bag. It is better to store it carefully.

After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, Zhang Jingyuan followed the same pattern. Before the phantom cicada could react, he took its body into his hand and put it into his storage bag.

Next, without even glancing at the two phantom cicadas, he moved his body and appeared from the ground to the Dharma Ark.

The golden elixir stage demon beast felt the majestic power pressing on itself and the disappearance of the fatal shadow of death deep in its heart. It stood up involuntarily, looked up to the sky and howled, letting out an angry roar to vent its anger. mood.

But after a while, it flew away in despair. Obviously it also knew very well that if the devil who stole its body was really summoned, it would probably have only one fate, and that would be death!

"Master, why don't you keep this phantom cicada? After all, it is a golden elixir stage monster, and the materials on it are worth some spiritual stones."

After seeing Zhang Jingyuan coming up, Master Ji Feng hurriedly said.

"Then wouldn't this be a bit too exhausting? If we leave this phantom cicada behind, it will come over and produce a body every thirty years, which means that we can have a steady stream of harvest. If we leave this The Phantom Cicada has been killed. Of course, the profit this time is huge, but what about the people in the future?"

Zhang Jingyuan glanced at Master Ji Feng and said lightly.

Based on the current situation, as long as this wave of phantom cicadas are harvested, his cultivation problems for at least the next twenty to thirty years will not be a problem at all.

Why bother, do these things that kill the goose that lays the egg.

Perhaps, he would have done this when he was just practicing in his previous life, but after experiencing such things in his previous life, he was more willing to do things that could enhance the strength of the entire human race by doing something casually.

Moreover, he did not think that Master Ji Feng could not understand such a simple truth.

"My master is really kind and charitable, and he is a role model for our human race. It is really a blessing for our human race to have a genius like my master. I think my master's virtue is already comparable to that of the Human Emperor..."
