Chapter 887: Observation outside the Poison Insect Valley
Of course, moving forward bravely is not a mindless rampage. A monk with such a character is destined to be impossible to reach the late Nascent Soul stage.
Even after understanding the situation in the Poison Valley, I have always been itchy about this special spiritual grass growing here, but my cautious character still has the upper hand.
"There are more than a hundred species of poisonous insects raging here, at least half of them are fourth-level and above, and there are more than 30 species and hundreds of fourth-level high-grade insects, and the total number exceeds thousands." After more than ten days of patient observation, this is what he
the conclusions drawn.
If we were to change to a completely new environment, poisonous insects would be the weakest existence among the same level. Whether it was the physical body or magical powers, as long as we were careful, they would not have too obvious impact on the monks.
But here is a poisonous valley formed by the natural aggregation of various toxins. These poisonous insects are like a fish in water here.
They can easily manipulate the toxins here to add to the innate spells. Attacks that could have been dealt with or are within the range of the physical body may grow into the last straw that breaks the camel's back, giving the monks the most fatal blow.
This is also the reason why Zhao Shoushou never launches an attack easily.
There are at least a hundred fourth-level high-grade poisonous insects, and there may still be a larger number of poisonous insects of the same level that have not appeared in the depths of the Poison Valley. In this case, no matter how cautious you are, you cannot be too cautious.
If they were to fight in the Poison Valley, with Zhao Shoushou's strength, even without considering the impact of poison invasion on combat effectiveness, he still had no chance of winning.
The combat effectiveness of a single poisonous insect is not worth mentioning. Many ants can bite an elephant to death. What's more, the opponent is not weak in the first place. It is really not a wise man to rush into it without a complete plan.
For a late-stage Nascent Soul monk, it is extremely common for him to hide in a certain place and secretly observe for three to five months in order to obtain a treasure.
After all, as long as you get this elixir, you can save at least ten years of hard work in cultivation. It is really a treasure that cannot be given up.
"Every poisonous insect will have a period of sleep or weakness after a certain period of time. As the level increases, it may be shortened, but it will definitely still exist." This is the reason why Zhao Shoushou can persist.
All he needs now is enough time and patience to sum up the rules, choose the best time, use his combat power and advantages to the strongest position, repel the poisonous insects in one fell swoop, and successfully pick the spiritual grass.
Zhao Shoushou was mentally prepared. Even if it took three to five years for this spiritual grass, it would still be valuable enough. This was also something that monks often used to defeat monsters in the process of cultivation.
Of course, in this process, in addition to observing the patterns of poisonous insects, we will also take the opportunity to hunt one or two. After all, these poisonous insects will occasionally fly out of the Poisonous Insect Valley.
Although the valley is filled with all kinds of natural toxins, it is an environment where poisonous insects and poisonous beasts are most at home, but for the existence of one or even several kinds of monsters, a single environment alone is obviously not enough.
These poisonous insects also need to hunt, replenish some clean water, and even swallow some special ingredients in the soil of the earth.
In the past observation time, three to five or more poisonous insects would fly away every day. At this time, Zhao Shoushou would not let go of this rare opportunity to weaken the strength of the Poisonous Insect Valley.
of.
Whether it is a low-level poisonous insect of the first or second level, a third-level poisonous insect that is the backbone, or a powerful fourth-level poisonous insect, they all have a common attitude.
So far, a total of one hundred and thirteen poisonous insects of various colors have fallen into their hands, turning into five insect corpses.
Time will not be wasted, and efforts must be rewarded. Whenever a poisonous insect dies, the overall strength of the poisonous insect valley will be weakened.
According to common sense, the reproduction rate of various insects is relatively high, but these poisonous insects are just the opposite. Under the erosion of toxins, although their strength has improved, their ability to reproduce offspring is also in a weakened state.
.
This also destined that every time Zhao Shoushou successfully hunted a poisonous insect, the strength of the entire Poisonous Insect Valley would be in a relatively weakened state, and it was destined to be irreparable in a short period of time.
The most amazing thing is that the Poisonous Insect Valley is a comprehensive valley, and the poisonous insects living here are not an independent race.
Zhao Shoushou's hunting will not attract the attention of high-level poisonous insects. After all, in order to compete for territory, it is extremely normal for them to hunt each other.
Of course, relying solely on this level of hunting is not enough. Compared with the naturally huge number of poisonous insects, it is nothing more than a drop in the bucket.
During this period of time, there were two late-stage monks and three fourth-level high-grade monsters observing from different locations nearby.
These existences of the same level obviously do not want to waste more time here. The reason why they have not formed a joint attack on the enemy is mainly because there is only one precious spiritual grass containing the power of transforming the sun. After joining forces to fight against the enemy, the loot will be
Distribution is also an important reason.
These existences of the same level were equally helpless when facing the Poisonous Insect Valley. After some observation, they all chose to evacuate. After all, for some people, it is better to go to the next target to explore instead of wasting time and energy here.
After all, in the world of cultivation, there are not too many late-stage great cultivators like Zhao Shoushou, who look for opportunities everywhere like dull flies relying on their own strength.
Some beings of the same level who have powerful sects as their help are either from the documents left by the elders of the sect, or obtained from the expeditions of the juniors of the sect, or more of the mutual assistance between peers. In short, their efficiency is far superior to that of others.
More than ordinary monks.
The sun and the moon rotate, day and night alternate, time dissipates, winter and summer alternate, and without realizing it, Zhao Shoushou has been waiting here to observe the time for three years.
During this process, Zhao Shoushou did not reveal his body. He kept running the little tricks to restrain his aura from the beginning to the end. He never had any impact on the Poisonous Insect Valley, except for the death of nearly a thousand poisonous insects in his hands that went outside the valley.
outside.
Most of them are first- and second-level poisonous insects. There are about 300 third-level poisonous insects. There are more than a hundred fourth-level poisonous insects. Among them, the fourth-order low-grade insects account for most of them. The fourth-order mid-grade poisonous insects are about 20. The fourth-order high-grade poisonous insects are also more than 100.
Ten of them, this is already an incredible achievement.
Low-level poisonous insects are worthless to him, but the venom gland sacs of fourth-level and above poisonous insects are all stored in the storage bag. These poison gland sacs are all the special toxin essence purified by the poisonous insects themselves, which can be regarded as valuable.
Not cheap.
After all, in the world of cultivation, there are a small number of special cultivators who rely on various toxins for poison cultivation. In addition, they can also become poison pills in the hands of some highly skilled alchemists.
