Chapter 420: Escaped(1/2)
Wilderness, ice cave.
Zhou Chun entered the ice cave again after several years, and the queen bee of the "Sky Frost Bee" inside felt a little excited after sensing his aura.
After checking the situation of the bee swarm, he also showed a look of surprise and joy.
It turns out that there are two more adult demon bees in the bee swarm that have entered the mature stage, and those young bees have now left the juvenile stage and entered the growth stage, and can go hunting with the bee swarm.
"It seems that my choice was right. This place is indeed helpful for the growth of 'Sky Frost Han Bee'."
Zhou Chun looked at the demon bees that had left their infancy and looked very satisfied.
As a strange insect on the "List of Strange Insects of Heaven and Earth", the "Sky Frost Bee" itself grows very slowly. Even in an environment that is very suitable for their growth, it takes hundreds of years to go from infancy to maturity, or even
longer.
Zhou Chun has had these demon bees for some years, and now the young bees have just left the juvenile stage, which shows how slow the growth rate of this demon bee is.
But this is not an intolerable shortcoming.
Because compared to the strength and longevity of "Tian Shuang Han Bee" in its mature stage, these are all worth it.
A mature "Sky Frost Bee" can live for about three hundred years. If there are hundreds of mature "Sky Frost Bees" forming a fighting swarm, ordinary Golden Core Stage monks must also avoid their sharp edges.
Dare to catch the torrent of cold air they spit out.
As long as he raises these demon bees well now, even if Zhou Chun forms an elixir in the future, these demon bees will become an important means for him to fight against his enemies.
"By the way, since these monster bees came, it seems that the snow crystal insects have never appeared again. Won't they all be eaten by them?"
Zhou Chun glanced around, looking at the ice walls composed of thousands of years of ice, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.
He originally released ten snow crystal insects here, and he must have released them successfully.
But later, as the demon bees settled here, he never saw those snow crystal insects again.
Therefore, he had every reason to suspect that the swarm of monster bees had eaten those snow crystal insects.
"You can eat as much as you want. This snow crystal insect is of no use to me anyway."
Shaking his head, Zhou Chun did not pursue the matter further. He put a few demon bees in the spirit beast bag into the hive, put several other mature demon bees into the spirit beast bag, and left the ice cave.
In the next two months, Zhou Chun traveled through rivers and lakes in the wilderness, looking for traces of third-order dragon-born monsters.
After some searching, he actually found two third-order dragon-born monsters.
These two dragon-born monsters are a third-order mid-grade monster, the Unicorn Dragon Crocodile, and a third-order high-grade monster, the Silver-armored Dragon Fish. Their strength is much stronger than ordinary monsters of the same level.
However, under the joint siege of Zhou Chun and Bai Bai, the two dragon-born monsters were still beheaded and killed by them together.
In the process of hunting these two monsters, Zhou Chun also discovered one thing, that is, the cold air of the "Sky Frost Bee" and Baibai's thunder and lightning spells were very useful in preventing the monsters from exploding their demon pills.
In the two battles, after the two dragon-born monsters found out that they were destined to die, they both wanted to use their magic power to self-destruct the demon pill.
But both times were interrupted by lightning spell paralysis and cold air freezing, giving Zhou Chun a chance to kill them before they self-destructed the demon elixir.
This discovery was undoubtedly an unexpected surprise for Zhou Chun.
After all, when a cultivator hunts down third-level or even fourth-level monsters, what they fear most is not how to defeat or even kill the monsters, but how to stop the monster's demon elixir from exploding.
The monster's self-explosion of the demon elixir is not only a powerful move that will destroy both the jade and the stone, but also a means to make the immortal cultivators achieve nothing.
If Zhou Chun hadn't mastered the means to prevent monsters from self-destructing demon pills, the chances of Zifu period monks hunting third-level monsters and obtaining demon pills wouldn't actually be very high.
Many times, the monsters were obviously killed, but because the monsters self-destructed the demon pills, the final harvest was reduced by more than half.
Therefore, in those teams of Zifu period monks who form teams to hunt third-level monsters, there will often be a monk who practices the Ice Walking Technique or the Thunder Walking Technique, or prepares such magical weapons and talismans in order to
At the critical moment, it can slightly prevent the monster from interrupting the self-explosion of the monster pill.
However, it was gratifying to hunt down two third-order dragon-born monsters, but Zhou Chun's move also caused a lot of trouble.
After he hunted the third-level high-grade demonic beast Silver Armored Dragon Fish, he took the Thunder Dragon in vain to hunt for treasure in the enemy's lair just like he had hunted the Blue Scale Dragon Fish and the Unicorn Dragon Crocodile before.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they found the entrance to the lair, Thunder Dragon Baibai suddenly sensed the aura of the fourth-level monster approaching at great speed.
Zhou Chun was also frightened at that time, and hurriedly asked Bai Bai to release his breath to lure the fourth-level monster away, while he quickly ran ashore and escaped.
This decision undoubtedly saved his life at the time.
The fourth-level monster that came to kill was easily lured away by the thunder dragon, and it did not notice him, the human monk who came ashore.
However, this move caused the Thunder Dragon to be chased for thousands of miles by the fourth-order monster in vain. Only after it had been chased into Long Yuanze did the fourth-order monster stop its pursuit.
Bai Bai then followed Zhou Chun's instructions and returned to Lanzhou from the underground sewer on his own after escaping from danger.
When Zhou Chun returned to Lanzhou alone and learned the whole story from Bai Bai, he immediately realized the seriousness of the matter.
Previously, he had only been blinded by the demon elixir of the third-order dragon-born monster, but he had overlooked an important thing.
Many of the third-order monsters in the wilderness are the subordinates of a certain fourth-order monster. Especially after the Hualong Sect was severely damaged, the fourth-order monsters became the masters of the wilderness again.
Those dragon-born monsters are very powerful and can easily be valued by the fourth-level monsters and become their younger brothers.
Zhou Chun's killing of these third-level monsters will of course anger those fourth-level monsters and make them personally take revenge for their fallen brother.
After being hunted this time, although Thunder Dragon Baibai successfully escaped with his life, his identity was exposed in front of the fourth-level monster.
There is no guarantee that the fourth-level monster will not report this matter to the dragon clan later.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! When the time comes to check the dragon clan and find that there is no such dragon in the dragon clan of Longyuanze, things will be very serious.
Of course, this probability should be low. After all, if it is just a fourth-level monster, it is not enough to gain the eyes of the dragon clan.
But even so, this matter undoubtedly sounded the alarm for Zhou Chun, making him dare not act recklessly in the wilderness just because he had a third-order thunder dragon in hand.
After all, the wilderness is still the territory of the demon clan. He, a human monk, takes the demon beasts there to kill the third-level demon beasts. If he is really found out, the impact will be too great.
If it doesn't work well, it may become a diplomatic dispute and arouse the anger of the Dragon Clan in Longyuanze.
After all, the third-order monsters that have condensed the demon elixir can be regarded as protected animals in a sense. Even those fourth-order monsters will not easily hunt other third-order monsters just to satisfy their appetites.
He is really greedy, that is, just like the black dragon in Long Yuanze, he secretly selects and trains good-qualified second-level monsters as his younger brothers, and then finds reasons to kill them and eat them.
What's more, Bai Bai is still a four-clawed thunder dragon with superior bloodline qualifications. If the dragon clan knew about it, such a superior dragon would be enslaved by a Zifu stage human monk and specially used to hunt third-level monsters.
That would definitely anger those proud dragons and make them want to kill Zhou Chun and Bai Bai.
No matter what the situation is, it is undoubtedly a disaster for Zhou Chun.
So after escaping back to Lanzhou this time, he didn't even dare to go to the wilderness for a short period of time. He also asked Zhou Daoyi to try not to ride the green dragon when he went there. It would be better to switch to other vehicles that can escape through water.
The monster passed by.
"Three dragon-born monster inner elixirs are enough to refine three furnaces of 'Dragon Spirit Pill'. Together with the 'Zengyuan Pill', 'Huang Jingdan' and other elixir materials that I have prepared, I think it will be better when I step into the realm of cultivation."
Before the late stage of Zifu, the elixirs should be enough!"
In the cave on Tuyun Ridge, Zhou Chunpan silently considered the various spiritual objects in his hands and decided to stop.
I often walk by the river without getting my shoes wet.
He was able to escape this time, but he may not be able to escape next time.
Even if he wants to hunt the third-level monsters again, he would rather go to places like Duolan Grassland and Black Mist, where at least even if the existence of Thunder Dragon Baibai is exposed, he will not provoke behemoths like the Dragon Clan.
After making the decision, Zhou Chun took out a "Huang Jing Dan" and drank it, then concentrated on practicing in the cave.
As an elixir for monks in the middle and late stages of Zifu, "Huang Jing Dan" is much more effective than "Zeng Yuan Dan".
Even if Zhou Chun takes this elixir now, he will not be able to fully absorb the full effect of the refining, and will waste one or two percent of the potency.
But even so, what he gained from refining a "Huang Jing Dan" was worth more than three years of practice.
After practicing quietly in Tuyun Ridge for three years and refining three "Huang Jing Dan", Zhou Chun vaguely sensed the barrier in the middle stage of Zifu.
Starting from the Zifu period, there are realm barriers between each small realm.
If cultivators want to break through this small realm barrier, they usually adopt two methods.
One is to loosen the realm barrier through years of polishing mana cultivation and impact after impact.
Zhou Mingde used this method to break through the middle stage of Zifu.
The second is to take certain elixirs that help break through the realm barrier and force the breakthrough.
Just like Lin Hongyu, in order to break through the late stage of Zifu as soon as possible, she took "Chiming Liuzhu Pill", a spiritual elixir specially used to help break through the realm barrier.
However, this kind of elixir is very precious, and it is very difficult to find it in Jingguo.
If Zhou Chun wanted to use the power of elixirs to break through the realm barrier, he would have to start from the Great Zhou Kingdom.
And he calculated the time and found that he and Luo Qingni had been separated for six or seven years. With each other's accumulation and the wonderful use of the [Five Elements Spirit Fruit], it was estimated that it would take less than ten years to successfully form the elixir.
Therefore, he had the idea of going to the Great Zhou Kingdom again.
At this time, he walked out of the cave and came to the valley outside.
I saw that what was just a small purple mulberry sapling three years ago has now grown to more than ten feet tall, with pieces of purple-green mulberry leaves blooming.
At this time, the purple mulberry wood is still in the category of first-order spiritual trees in terms of spiritual strength, but the rich vitality it exudes is no worse than many second-order spiritual trees.
Zhou Chun estimates that if this continues, this tree will grow into a second-level spiritual tree in less than ten years.
"As expected of a descendant of a fifth-level spiritual tree, this foundation is truly unmatched by ordinary spiritual trees!"
