Some senior ninth-level foundation-building monks had mixed reactions to Zhao Shoushou's breakthrough in cultivation. Generally speaking, they were welcoming, but they did not show up to talk when the battle was about to begin.
On the one hand, the real battle has not yet begun. A newly promoted ninth-level foundation-building monk will not have much impact on the overall situation. Whether he can survive the difficulties and dangers is still open to question.
The second aspect is that for many monks, their own safety is always the first priority. At this time, when danger is approaching, there is no guarantee that their own safety can be guaranteed.
Combined with the two, some of the original curiosity has been suppressed at the bottom of the heart. The addition of a ninth-level foundation-building monk will not cause any waves.
It is a good deterrent to other nearby foundation-building monks, and more importantly, it is the envy of the members of the 18th team.
When there are only a limited number of ninth-level monks in the entire cultivation world, being able to have a powerful monk as the leader will obviously have a higher hope of survival in the coming battle.
As for the members of the 18th Squadron, apart from Hou Rongfa whose face was full of shock, the rest of the monks only had joy from the bottom of their hearts. There was no hiding this.
"The late stage of foundation building is like a monster that devours spiritual energy and never knows when it is hungry or full. How can one advance in cultivation so quickly?" Hou Rongfa, who had been wasting his time on the seventh level of foundation building for many years, had an expression of disbelief on his face.
In fact, this is the most obvious difference between a late-stage traditional foundation-building monk and a late-stage Yeluzi foundation-building monk. The difference between spending most of the time simply practicing in seclusion and wandering around to earn spiritual elixir support at all costs.
The gap between them is obviously irreparable.
If Zhao Shoushou hadn't been working so hard along the way, how could a monk with a casual cultivating background have successfully reached the current level?
Every step of progress is accompanied by bloody storms, and every bit of progress in cultivation comes from fighting among the sea beasts. Efforts may not necessarily bring results, but if you don’t work hard, there will definitely be no results. Isn’t everything today just right?
The strongest evidence?
Let's turn our attention back to the upcoming hunting battle. Only Zhao Shoushou who has raised his cultivation level to the ninth level of foundation building can be qualified to compete for some treasures. As long as the third-level sea beast has not personally taken action, he will be sure to a certain extent.
Go freely.
Under the full speed of the spirit ship, the treasure island very close to them soon appeared in front of them. What caught the eyes of the monks was a large and small earthen house with hundreds of houses on the edge of the spirit island. It was the first
The masterpiece of the monks who arrived here.
Apart from some simple earthen huts that could only be used to shelter from the wind and rain, the most eye-catching thing was of course the blood red all over the ground and the bloody smell that still lingered in the air.
This piece of land that seems to be close to the edge of Lingdao was fought over by a large number of monks who fought to the death. This process must not be easy.
"Fellow Taoists, please come with me. The repair site of the Eighteenth Team is located in the northeast corner." As soon as the spirit boat landed, a handsome monk in the early stage of foundation building had already greeted him and led Zhao Shoushou and others to an inconspicuous earthen house.
, this will be their resting place for a long time to come.
Of course, in addition to the simple earthen huts, at the core of the occupied territory, there are complete and fully functional pavilions. In addition to the many Jindan monks occupying here, monks injured in the battle can also be here.
training.
Located underground in the pavilion, there are some secret rooms specially used for retreat practice. Only monks who are on the verge of promotion can try to apply.
After all, monks coming to hunt sea beasts and looking for opportunities to improve their cultivation is also a very important factor. No matter how overbearing the Spirit Island Alliance is, it is still qualified in this aspect.
"Purple Lihua, unfortunately not mature yet"
“The trees here are all ironwoods that are over a thousand years old.”
"It's just the periphery, the spiritual power has reached about the third level of low-grade spiritual veins, and it's a treasure island."
The dozen or so monks from the 18th team kept exclaiming in various exclamations during the short journey. The abundant resources here were obviously beyond the imagination of the monks.
Purple Lihua is a relatively rare second-level middle-grade elixir with earth attributes. Its effects are at two extremes. It is valuable when mature and has many uses. It can assist monks to improve their cultivation or treat injuries. On the contrary, it has never been used before.
Before it reaches true maturity, it has no effect on the monks.
This is also the reason why such a precious elixir can be left behind. It will take at least hundreds of years for this small spiritual seedling to truly mature.
Therefore, many monks just sighed and had no desire to pick it. As for the thousand-year ironwood, it is a special hard wood that can be used as a special material for some large buildings. The value of each stick is not high, so
Large tracts of forest are worth a lot of money.
In addition, the spiritual veins of this spiritual island are obviously far beyond what Zhao Shoushou and others expected. The density of spiritual power on the periphery is already similar to the third-order low-grade spiritual veins. Isn’t it possible that the depths of the spiritual island can reach the fourth level?
The overseas cultivation world is famous for its wealth compared to the mainland cultivation world, and the number of spiritual islands with fourth-level spiritual veins is also quite rare.
Even some sects with ancestors in the Nascent Soul stage are just a third-level high-grade spiritual vein. It can be imagined that after the core of the sea monster tide is destroyed, there will be a protracted battle for the ownership of this spiritual island.
war.
Of course, this has nothing to do with Zhao Shoushou. The most important thing for him right now is to search for treasures as soon as possible, condense golden elixirs, and wait for an opportunity to seize a third-level spiritual island.
The location assigned to the 18th Team is roughly located in the northeast near the inner side of the Spirit Island, and the spiritual power is more abundant than the location they visited before.
Unfortunately, this is not a good thing. It also means that the possibility of being attacked by sea monsters is greater. The stronger the team, the closer the resting place assigned to them is to the coast. Obviously, they are once again acting as cannon fodder.
Looking around, almost all the people on the periphery were from casual cultivators. The monks who seized the throne of the island master in the battle for the spiritual island, the struggle was everywhere.
However, Zhao Shoushou is not dissatisfied with this point, or he is a little happy to see the results. The first to get the moon is closer to the water, and even if he is not here, he can go deep into the spirit island to explore in advance.
Compared with monks launching large-scale operations, individual actions alone are more effective in collecting some precious elixirs.
I think this is also the subconscious thought of many monks. At least the ten monks in the 18th team so far are quite satisfied with the current arrangement.
As mentioned above, when there is enough gain, some dangers are not something to worry about, let alone the reason that prevents them from moving forward. I think this is also the true inner thought of most monks. Those with this mentality are not
