Immortal cultivation begins in the desert

Qingping mountain oasis.

Since the old patriarch Zhou Minghan adopted Zhou Yang's plan and began to implement it that day, in order to prevent the third-order [poisonous fire Scorpion King] from retaliating, more than a dozen monks of the Zhou family retreated to the oasis first in the later stage of Qi practice.

The spiritual pulse on qingpingshan oasis is only second-class. The daily generated aura can only supply one friar in the later stage of Qi practice and seven or eight friars in the early and middle stages of Qi practice. Now more than a dozen friars in the later stage of Qi practice gather here, and the aura of the spiritual pulse is suddenly insufficient.

There is no doubt about the importance of spiritual pulse and aura to immortals.

If an immortal wants to improve his accomplishments normally, he must practice on the spiritual pulse corresponding to his accomplishments.

Take the cultivation of immortals in the Qi cultivation period as an example. If he does not practice on the second-order spiritual pulse such as Qingping mountain, but only in the outer oasis or desert wilderness, his cultivation speed will be reduced ten times. On the contrary, if he practices on the third-order middle-class spiritual pulse such as Yuquan peak, his cultivation speed will be slightly increased at the normal level.

If an immortal cultivator is above the foundation period, it is a dream to make further progress in cultivation with the thin spiritual content of the world outside when he leaves the spiritual pulse.

Therefore, in the immortal cultivation world, any immortal who still wants to improve his cultivation level will try to occupy a spiritual vein for cultivation.

According to the level, the amount of Reiki generated by a Reiki pulse every day is also limited. Once the number of friars on the Reiki pulse exceeds this limit, the Reiki pulse may fall to the level and even be exhausted.

The spirit vessel of Qingping mountain is cultivated by the family with a huge amount of spirit stones. Of course, the friars of the Zhou family will not do the stupid thing of drinking poison to quench thirst.

Therefore, after discussion, they unanimously decided to give the spiritual pulse to Zhou Yang, the hope of the Zhou family in the future. The rest, including his parents, retreated to the oasis outside the mountain and refined the aura in the spiritual stone to practice.

The spirit stone is a spirit object formed after the spirit of heaven and earth is highly condensed. The total amount of spirit contained in a low-grade spirit stone is comparable to that of a friar in the foundation period, which is enough for a friar with seven layers of Qi to practice for ten days.

Therefore, many low-level casual practitioners who cannot occupy the spiritual pulse practice can only absorb the aura in the spirit stone to practice every day in order to improve their cultivation.

This naturally consumes spiritual stones. Few casual practitioners are rich enough to use this method to improve their accomplishments all year round.

This is the biggest reason why low-level casual practitioners have lower accomplishments and poor pockets than sect and family monks of the same age.

In the later period of Qi cultivation, the monks of the Zhou family were not too poor. The practice of refining spirit stone in a short time was just a trivial matter for them, but no one would have any opinion about it.

Zhou Yang also knows how much responsibility he bears now. He silently accepts the kindness of his elders and says no excuses without affectation.

On the other hand, after Zhou Yang and others left, the old patriarch Zhou Minghan immediately flew over the sandy slope and set a fire.

There is no need to kill a chicken with an ox knife, but to burn some ordinary desert plants. Zhou Minghan doesn't need to waste mana to release the real fire of building a foundation. He just needs to release a simple second-order top-grade spell "Fire Sea" and a small second-order bottom-grade spell "gale". A huge fire burns up and down the sandy slope.

Crackling!

The fire spread everywhere, and some desert animals hiding on the sandy slope were instantly ignited, making a popping sound and meat smell like popping beans.

For a time, all kinds of animal roars, snake hiss and bird singing became one, the voice was very sad and full of despair.

Standing hundreds of meters high and looking down, Zhou Minghan can see the figure of desert animals running wildly with flames everywhere. At this time, the thick fur of these animals used to resist the cold at night and the high temperature in the day has become a life-threatening spell.

In addition to a few animals that dig holes very fast, such as gerbils and sand foxes, who dig holes in time into thick yellow sand and rely on sand to put out the flames, 70% of desert animals turn into coke in the raging flames.

Even those poisonous fire scorpions hiding in the sand were burned alive by the towering fire.

This sudden change on the sandy slope soon disturbed the third-order demon beast [poisonous fire Scorpion King] in the cave deep underground.

After hearing the "hissing" scream of his fellow creatures, the third-order monster rushed out of the cave where he was hiding. The raging fire on the sandy slope was no threat to its powerful monster.

Hissing!

As soon as the dark red giant scorpion, which was as big as a calf, appeared, it waved a pair of huge scorpion tongs and shouted angrily at Zhou Minghan in the sky. The powerful breath emitted by Zhou Minghan made this demon beast feel a great threat.

However, Zhou Minghan didn't care about it. He just released a shining third-order flying sword and harvested those low-order poisonous fire scorpions in front of it.

This provocative behavior greatly angered the "poisonous fire Scorpion King". He suddenly hit the ground with his double tongs. The whole sandy slope was shaking, and a huge sandstorm was set off in an instant.

The yellow sand flying all over the sky not only covered the sight of Zhou Minghan in the sky, but also quickly extinguished most of the spreading fire.

Just like the difference between heaven and earth between the foundation period and the Qi training period, the strength gap between the third-order monster and the second-order monster is also very different.

Every move of the third-order monster can collapse the mountain and crack the ground, causing a small-scale natural disaster. If there is no immortal of the same level to fight against it, a third-order monster can destroy a small oasis like Qingping mountain oasis.

At this time, seeing the [poisonous fire Scorpion King] angry, Zhou Minghan did not rush to fight with him, although he was not afraid of the other party. Instead, he quickly took back his flying sword and directly withdrew from the battlefield.

Unlike immortals, monsters can learn to fly with swords as long as they reach the foundation period. Except for birds and a few monsters with special magical powers, most land monsters and water monsters cannot master the flying ability before level 4.

Therefore, in the foundation period, when facing a land third-order land monster like [poisonous fire Scorpion King], as long as they don't fight in each other's underground nest, they can easily take the initiative in the battlefield.

Of course, the reverse is the same. Although the [poisonous fire Scorpion King] can't fly, if it wants to drill into the ground and leave, it's difficult for the immortal builders to leave it on the ground unless they arrange an array to stop it in advance.

On the sandy slope, [poisonous fire Scorpion King] found that Zhou Minghan had left. He just thought that the other party was frightened by the power he showed. He hissed complacently, waved two scorpion tongs to show off to his younger brothers. After a while, he extended his magic claw to a half burned first-order poisonous fire scorpion nearby.

The poor poisonous fire scorpion managed to escape from the fire. Before he could be lucky, he was eaten as dinner by his "King".

After eating a wounded clansman, the [poisonous fire Scorpion King] glanced at other trembling ordinary poisonous fire scorpions with a fierce light in his eyes, hissed in his mouth, issued several orders and returned to the underground cave to sleep.

After the [King of poisonous fire scorpions] left, the whole group of poisonous fire scorpions immediately ushered in a carnival. The desert animals burned by Zhou Minghan are the main course of the carnival, including even the dead bodies of poisonous fire scorpions.

All poisonous fire scorpions, including the poisonous fire Scorpion King, did not realize how much harm the destruction of desert plants around the sandy slope would bring to their own ethnic groups.

In the eyes of these monsters, today's battle is no different from the scorpion group when it was attacked by powerful monsters. Although the invaders killed some members of the scorpion group, they were driven away by their powerful "King". As for the dead siblings, as long as the scorpion group is still there, new members will be born and join soon.

It was not until half a month later that the [poisonous fire Scorpion King] woke up from his deep sleep and found that the number of scorpions had greatly decreased and killed each other because of lack of food that he realized the malice of the fire.

But at this time, the evil consequences have appeared. Although the [poisonous fire Scorpion King] is strong, it is impossible to produce a lot of food out of thin air to save the scorpions.

As a last resort, [poisonous fire Scorpion King] can only take the initiative to clean up the old, weak, sick, disabled and weak in the scorpion group for the strong to eat, and then drive all the surviving poisonous fire scorpions out of the underground caves and let them go to the depths of the desert to hunt.

However, [poisonous fire Scorpion King] did not expect that Zhou Minghan, the old patriarch who had just driven the scorpions out of the underground cave and had been monitoring the situation on shatupo, immediately seized the opportunity to kill dozens of poisonous fire scorpions that had left the nest. Then, before he heard the call for help, he flew away from the scene.

After this lesson, [poisonous fire Scorpion King] didn't understand that he and the scorpions were being watched. He was also a wise monster. He immediately changed the order so that the scorpions could not move on the ground when they were hunting away from the nest, and then he secretly followed the scorpions hunting away from the nest to wait for an opportunity to attack.

The poisonous fire scorpion dug a hole and moved under the sand. It was not easy for Zhou Minghan to find it, and the sneak attack of the [poisonous fire Scorpion King] almost made him overturn.

After several attempts, Zhou Minghan finally turned around and returned to qingpingshan oasis.
