Start a mysterious island

Spiritual world, Dongwu City.

Deep in the magnificent mansion, in the quiet corridor, at a distance, stood a burly guard with psychic energy fluctuations emanating from his body.

Wu Xiong, who was pale, had a lot of gauze wrapped around his body, and looked very haggard, walked quickly to the end of the corridor.

This morning, after he came out of the yamen, he went to a medical center for a simple treatment, and then returned home without stopping.

At this moment, Wu Xiong felt very uneasy. The plan last night could be said to be a complete failure. He was a little embarrassed to see his master.

In a garden filled with birds and flowers, Wu Xingao, who was sitting in the pavilion reading a book, heard the sound of rapid footsteps.

Tap, step, step...

Wu Xiong came to Wu Xingao and lowered his head in shame, Master.

Wu Xingao, who was holding a book in his hand, raised his head and looked at his confidants.

Putting the book in his hand on the stone table in front of him, he then reached out to pick up the purple clay pot, poured a cup of tea into his cup, took a sip, and said in a calm tone.

You're seriously injured!

... Wu Xiong was silent for a few seconds, and then said, I'm okay. Zhang Di was seriously injured. Although he has received treatment from doctors, he has not been able to get out of bed for the past two days.

You two, plus the assassins sent by the Blood Killing Sect, three practitioners with second-level peaks, are not the opponents of the masked murderer? Wu Xingao said.

He learned the news last night. At first glance, he thought the servant who came to report the situation to him was joking with him.

Originally, he had expected that no matter how strong the masked murderer was, he would be able to defeat one against two at best.

Unexpectedly, the opponent could actually fight one against three, and also occupy an absolutely dominant position. Practitioners who can achieve this level can be said to be very rare.

Sir, that masked murderer is extraordinarily strong. After fighting him yesterday, I think he can be said to be the strongest among practitioners at the same level... Wu Xiong recalled his fight with the masked murderer yesterday. scene, he said with a solemn expression.

Only after having personal contact with the other party can we realize how terrifying he is. His profound spirit, which is far beyond ordinary people, can make people despair.

Wu Xingao looked at the expression on Wu Xiong's face and thought to himself that his trusted servant had already developed a psychological shadow towards the masked murderer after the battle last night.

The strongest among the practitioners of the same level? So what, after all, he is just a second-level peak practitioner.

... Wu Xiong nodded. Indeed, as Wu Xingao said, with the power of the Wu family, it is very simple to deal with a second-level peak practitioner as long as you take it seriously.

Master, this time it was our incompetence that made you lose face. Wu Xiong said very ashamed.

As Wu Xingao's confidant, he knew much more than others.

Last night's siege operation failed. Some people who don't get along with Wu Xingao will soon know that, and they will definitely use this incident to taunt Wu Xingao, joking that he can't even handle a second-level peak guy.

Wu Xingao looked at his trusted servant who looked ashamed. If it had been last night, he would have angrily scolded him for his incompetence in doing things.

Now after this night, most of my anger has gone away, and I know that this time the siege operation failed, mainly because the masked murderer was too strong, beyond everyone's expectations, and the failure was not Wu Xiong's fault.

You don't have to keep this failure in your heart. Although you failed this time, it will be good if you can succeed next time. Wu Xingao comforted his close servant.

Yes, Master. Wu Xiong looked at him with a moved face when he heard his master forgive him for his failure this time.

Sit down and have a sip of tea! As the head of the Wu family, he is naturally very good at winning people's hearts. When he saw Wu Xiong looking at him with a moved face, he smiled and asked the other person to sit down, and then poured him a cup himself. Tea.

Thank you, sir. Wu Xiong did not sit down, but stood and stretched out his hand, carefully taking the tea handed over by Wu Xingao.

Don't stand, sit down and drink! Wu Xingao greeted again.

Yes. Wu Xiong nodded and sat down in front of the stone table.

There were a few birds standing on the branches in the distance, chirping, and their crisp calls echoed in the garden.

Wu Xingao felt a little noisy. He turned his head and looked at the birds standing on the branches and chirping.

A pale golden aura appeared in his eyes. The next second, the bird on the branch seemed to feel that some terrible creature was staring at it. It was so frightened that it trembled and did not dare to call out again.

The aura that appeared in his eyes dissipated, Wu Xingao turned his head, looked at his trusted servant who was sitting upright, thought for a moment, and asked.

This time your siege operation failed. Did you see clearly how the masked murderer left?

Wu Xiong drank up the tea given by his master, then gently placed the tea cup on the stone table, with a depressed expression on his face and shook his head, Master, I didn't see clearly how the masked murderer left?

Wu Xingao frowned, and Wu Xiong quickly explained.

At that time, the masked murderer created a huge fireball and attacked us. After the fireball exploded, we went to look for his traces, but he had disappeared without a trace.

call……

A gust of wind suddenly blew up and poured into the pavilion, making the clothes of the two people in the pavilion rustle.

When the sudden wind dissipated, Wu Xingao said, The masked murderer now has an unknown means of escape, which is a bit troublesome.

... Wu Xiong nodded. The masked murderer was very powerful and had unknown means of escape. The combination of the two made it very difficult to deal with him.

Concerning the matter of the masked murderer, what should we do next? Tell us what you think. Wu Xingao asked.

Master, with my wisdom, I can't figure out how to deal with that masked murderer at the moment. Wu Xiong said with shame.

Wu Xingao also knew that he was embarrassing Wu Xiong by asking him this question. He thought for a while and said.

Since three second-level peak cultivators can't handle him, let's increase our manpower... You will go to the leader of the Blood Killing Sect later and tell him that as long as the masked murderer is alive for one day, he owes me The favor is not returned.

Yes. Wu Xingao responded.

Afterwards, the master and servant chatted for a long time in the pavilion about how to deal with the masked murderer next.

When Wu Xiong stood up and left to carry out what Wu Xingao told him, and Wu Xingao was the only one left in the pavilion, a gloomy voice came from the pavilion.

You have made me lose face twice. How can you relieve my anger without peeling your skin and cramping your muscles?

And just when Wu Xingao, the head of the Wu family, was using his methods to deal with the masked murderer again, the masked murderer in another world was currently working hard to improve his cultivation.

…………

The golden sunshine splashed on the earth, and under the blue sky, in a green wilderness, there was a figure wearing camouflage uniforms running quickly.

Lin Li walked all the way and was about to reach his destination. Suddenly, he sensed psychic energy fluctuations in the dense grass in front of him on the right.

Um?

The speed of his feet slowed down, and he looked warily at the dense grass where the psychic fluctuations appeared.

Wow.

The creature hiding in the thick leafy grass felt that it was close enough, and then kicked off its limbs, quickly jumped out of the grass, and rushed towards the prey with great ferocity.

court death.

Lin Li looked at the charging dog beast, then kicked off his right foot and moved to the left, easily dodging the opponent's flying attack.

Roar……

Seeing that it had not hit its prey, the dog beast kicked off its limbs after landing, quickly changed its direction, and pounced towards Lin Li again.

Tsk... This reaction speed is quite fast, but it's a pity that your strength is not enough. Lin Li muttered.

This time, he did not dodge significantly, but took a step back sideways. The beast passed by him. At this moment, he suddenly raised his right leg and kicked the opponent in the abdomen. .

Ouch...!!!

After being hit in the soft belly, the dog beast flew backwards, accompanied by a shrill scream.

boom.

It hit the ground hard and rolled around a few times before stopping. The severe pain in its abdomen did not defeat the beast.

It struggled to get up from the ground, trying to attack the prey again, and at this time, a harsh sound sounded.

call out.

The sharp cyan wind blade quickly condensed into shape in Lin Li's hand. As he waved his hand, the cyan wind blade burst out, tearing through the air and making a harsh whistling sound.

laugh.

The dog beast with the first level of peak cultivation had no time to dodge and watched the sharp green wind blade hit his head.

boom.

Split into two, red and white things flowed out of the split head, and the alien beast that was instantly killed by a single blow fell to the ground.

Now, when Lin Li was dealing with this kind of peak-level beast, as long as he could hit the opponent's vital point with one blow, he could basically kill it instantly with one move.

I think back to a few months ago when I went into the wilderness alone to hunt alien beasts. At that time, it was very difficult to deal with an alien beast with a high-level first-level cultivation.

But now he can actually kill a stronger beast with one move, and he has to sigh that his change is really big enough.

Lin Li looked at the dog beast that was instantly killed by him, sighed with emotion, and then stepped forward to take the prey into the mysterious island.

This killed dog beast could be considered a good start for Lin Li after entering the wilderness today.

After reaching the peak of the second level of cultivation, the difficulty of growing the magical little fruit from the magical tree on the mysterious island has increased again as expected.

In the previous stage, the flesh and blood essence of a first-level alien beast could provide 0.2% of the maturity progress for the magical little fruit. At the current stage, it can only provide 0.1% of the maturity progress.

If Lin Li wanted to harvest a ripe magical fruit now, he would need to kill a thousand first-order exotic beasts.

With Lin Li's current level of cultivation, a thousand alien beasts sounded like a lot, but if he really hunted the first-order alien beasts, it would be very easy.

But the premise is that you need to spend a lot of time to hunt down such a number of first-order beasts.

The flesh and blood essence of the second-level alien beasts could previously provide 1.5% of the maturity progress, but now it has become 1%.

If you hunt a hundred second-level exotic beasts, you can harvest ripe magical little fruits. If you go searching deep in the wilderness, it is better to find second-level exotic beasts.

Although it is much more difficult to hunt down second-order alien beasts than first-order alien beasts, taking a comprehensive look at it, it takes more time to hunt down one hundred second-order alien beasts than it does to hunt down one thousand first-order alien beasts. a lot less.

Lin Li's current plan is to complete the extermination of the Flame Rats.

He advanced deeper into the wilderness and quickly harvested new ripe magical fruits by hunting a large number of second-level exotic beasts.

Including the 0.1% maturity progress provided by this dog beast, we are still 97.2% away from harvesting a ripe magical little fruit again.

After Lin Li took the dog beasts into the mysterious island, he calculated in his mind, and then he immediately took steps and ran quickly towards the destination where the flame rats were infested.

…………

There is a small lake with rippling blue waves in the wilderness, covering an area of ​​about one hundred acres.

There are lush vegetation growing next to the small lake. If you peel back the lush vegetation, you will find that there are holes hidden in the grass that can fit an entire football.

Zhizhizhi...

If you listen carefully, you will hear subtle sounds coming from the cave from time to time.

The lush vegetation swayed gently, but they were not moved by the wind.

If you look carefully and look through the gaps between the grass and trees, you will find something crawling out of the hole hidden in it... It's a mouse.

The mice crawling out of the burrow are very large, several times the size of ordinary house mice.

Weak psychic energy fluctuations emanated from the flame rat, which was nearly half a meter long, red in color, and had large front teeth.

This flame rat has a mid-level cultivation level and is not very strong. After it crawled out of the hole, it carefully looked around at the entrance of the hole. After confirming that there was no danger, it turned its head and looked at the hole. Called a few times.

After a few seconds, a faint sound came from the dark hole. Soon, one after another, flame rat cubs with a body length of more than 20 centimeters crawled out of the hole.

One, two, three, four, five...there are ten flame rat cubs in total.

Although the general strength of flame rats is only from the beginning to the middle of the first level when they reach adulthood, they are not a high threat to the alien hunters who are qualified to enter the wilderness to hunt alien beasts.

However, these flame rats reproduce very quickly, giving birth to six to ten pups six to eight times a year.

If they are not removed and their numbers are controlled, once the flame rats multiply to a certain extent, they will gather together to form a terrible rat plague.

Even if the strength of the flame rats is not strong, if thousands of them swarm together and move in the wilderness, not many of the exotic beast hunter teams will be able to escape from the terrible rat plague and ascend to heaven.

The adult flame rat took its ten cubs out for activities. The cubs who came outside the cave for the first time were full of curiosity about everything.

Squeak, squeak, squeak... The adult flame rat reminded its cubs not to run too far, lest they be unable to escape into the hole in time when danger occurs.

The cub of the flame rat obviously didn't take the parents' words to heart, and crawled around happily, getting further and further away from the burrow.

Ha...a litter of ten is really fertile. A voice appeared from behind the big tree in the distance, and then an orange-red light lit up.
