Generally speaking, whether it is a monk or a monster, after obtaining a valuable treasure, they will subconsciously store it in a place they think is the safest.
In the world of cultivation, there are countless magic circles used to conceal the aura of nirvana treasures. Before, he had subconsciously searched for the relevant locations with all his strength.
Who would have thought that these cranes, who have always been clever and not good at all kinds of planning, would choose to do the opposite and place them in an undisguised position.
Of course, this is first of all due to the access token of the Seven Sealed Relic Pagoda. On the surface, it is a genuine, ordinary wooden token, without any spiritual power escaping.
Otherwise, if the monk's attention had been attracted and the treasure was collected immediately, how could he have almost returned empty-handed and wasted the treasure?
"The emperor pays off, as long as he is willing to pay, he will definitely gain enough, and Zhao will not waste three fierce battles." After starting with the access token, Zhao Shoushou felt more at ease than ever before.
Now that the goal has been achieved, he naturally will not continue to linger. Before the death of the fourth-level low-grade crane, he used special means to summon his companions who were out.
As a type of bird, fast flight is a major feature. There is no doubt that these fourth-level cranes that are out will return to support as soon as possible once they receive information asking for help.
For Zhao Shoushou, once he is surrounded by the fourth-level cranes who are returning to the rescue, facing the death of these companions, and encountering monsters that are looting and going into rage in his lair, the level of danger is very high.
With very little mana left in his Dantian and more than half of his physical body, he is completely a monk who is strong on the outside and capable on the inside. Once the crane returns, won't he be like a sheep in a tiger's mouth?
Therefore, he did not bother to recuperate a little, and after confirming that nothing was missing in the palace, the figure flickered and disappeared without a trace.
"Chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp" After a stick of incense, screams echoed near the lake. Their screams were so sad and shrill that they seemed to be crying blood.
After spreading its wings, the behemoth, which was more than several feet long, looked like a crazed mad cow, frantically searching for possible traces of the enemy.
Some of the monsters hiding around the lake were unlucky. The cranes were driven into madness. They searched for monsters that existed around the lake and might be a threat to the cranes stationed in the lake, and carried out crazy killings and expulsions without exception.
.
These cranes are the overlords nearby. Although there are no fifth-level monsters in charge, their strength far exceeds that of other groups of monsters. Even the desert overlord Desert Scorpion cannot compare with them.
The large and small monster beast groups near the lake actually live in a state of dependence most of the time. For a while, monster beasts were everywhere running and fighting, and blood flowed like rivers.
After the main force of the crane clan returned, the scope of this fighting increased several times, and some desert scorpions wandering on the edge of the desert were unlucky as a result.
But all this is destined to be in vain. In fact, the culprit of all this, Zhao Shoushou, has already escaped, and his figure has disappeared into the desert long ago, hiding in a certain place to practice and adjust his breath.
At this time, thousands of miles away from the lake, deep underground near the edge of the desert, in a temporary underground cave, a pale and bloodless monk was adjusting his breath.
The small cave was extremely dark, without a trace of light. Only the sound of heavy breathing was trying to prove the life characteristics of the monks.
Because it is relatively close to the underground spiritual veins, the spiritual energy in the underground cave is relatively abundant. Thanks to this, it is relatively easy for Zhao Shoushou to recover. For a monk, as long as there is a sufficient supply of spiritual energy
, which can ensure the recovery of the injury.
For Zhao Shoushou, ever since he obtained the access token to the Seven Sealed Relics Pagoda, he no longer has any nostalgia for this dangerous forbidden land.
What's more, as the number of monks increases, in addition to hunting and fighting for monsters, the hunting between monks is also quite cruel.
Whenever any monk may have access tokens to the Seven Relics Pagoda, it will lead to desperate battles, and this kind of battle will never end.
"The injury has recovered to eighty or nine points, and it's time to leave. In recent days, the number and scale of fighting nearby have become more and more obvious." Zhao Shoushou, who was in the temporary cave after three months, decisively chose to leave.
After the mission of this trip was completed, he was going to return to Peiling Mountain for some meditation. This team fought continuously and walked on the edge of life and death several times, but he still gained some understanding.
Zhao Shoushou believed that he only needed to return to Peiling Mountain to practice in seclusion for a while. Before the Seven Sealed Relics Pagoda was officially opened, his cultivation could still take a small step forward.
For monks in the Nascent Soul stage, the difficulty of each step forward in cultivation is quite high. This kind of wandering on the edge of life and death is undoubtedly an effective method to stimulate one's own potential, and it is usually the first choice of monks.
After much thought, the most important reason why I finally chose Peiling Mountain as a place for breath control and retreat is that I can ensure my own safety here.
As a moderate sect, there would be no monks who would provoke a sect that has been passed down for thousands of years just for a possible access token.
In addition, the relatively abundant supply of spiritual energy here will obviously assist in the next step of practice plan. No matter from every aspect, it is the best choice. There is really no reason to give up.
"It's been a few months, but I want to become a brother. How was the harvest of this Hongyan Mountain gathering?" Ten days later, at the top of Peiling Mountain, Pei Yicai showed great enthusiasm.
"Thank you, senior brother, for making it happen, but this journey was very bumpy. I was attacked for a ten thousand-year-old tree heart, and I was seriously injured and dying. It's really hard to describe." Zhao Shoushou let out a long sigh, and he still seemed to be scared.
"Do you know who the other party is? As a brother, I will accompany you to fight at the door to demand justice." Pei Yicai asked aggressively, as if he was feeling the same.
"Thank you for your kindness, senior brother. However, this time I have gained some understanding while walking on the edge of life and death. I need to practice in seclusion. After I get out of seclusion, I will naturally look for information about the enemy. Please forgive me, senior brother." He couldn't help but feel in his tone.
Bringing out a hint of anxiety.
"What is lost is harvested in the east. Junior brother, please quickly go into seclusion."
The seemingly simple exchange of greetings between the two was actually a process of testing each other. After all, the time of his return happened to be at the critical moment when they were competing for the access token to the Seven Sealed Pagoda Burial.
After dispelling Pei Yicai's suspicion, Zhao Shoushou quickly entered the cave, and with the support of abundant spiritual power, he entered into deep practice.
As for all the suspicions in the outside world, they will no longer attract his attention at all. All his energy is placed on the rapid progress of his cultivation. It seems that everything in the world has nothing to do with him.
