Chapter 899: Mysterious world full of treasures (1)
Fortunately, Zhao Shoushou pays attention to the solid foundation, and the physical strength is also superior among the same level. The attacks of some low-level monsters have no obvious harm to him.
Whenever a fourth-level low-grade ant is successfully hunted, Zhao Shoushou will immediately pocket it and plant a mark with his own mana to prepare it for future tasks and return it to the Taoist sect.
According to his original deal with the Taoist Sect, this trip required hunting a total of four fourth-order high-grade monsters, six fourth-order mid-grade monsters, and ten fourth-order low-grade monsters.
There are only four fourth-level high-grade monsters that are qualified to pose a threat to him here. As for the others, they can just do it casually.
Zhao Shoushou has never succeeded in breaking through here. Of course, the mutant ants are so powerful that a confrontation will occur for a while.
However, he has always wanted to take this opportunity to kill ten fourth-level low-grade existences from these mutated ants. Although their individual strength is slightly weaker, they are still solid fourth-level low-grade monsters, which are enough to satisfy the Taoist Sect's original requirements.
Require.
Paying a small price here to gather ten fourth-level low-grade monsters at once will save you from spending more time looking for them one by one in the future.
For beings like Zhao Shoushou, time is the most precious resource for cultivation. As long as enough time is saved, treasures of sufficient quantity and quality can be found here to improve one's cultivation.
From this aspect, the corpses of these fourth-level low-grade monsters are also a precious and necessary resource that cannot be given up under any circumstances.
"Today's mission is completed. Mr. Zhao will leave today. There is not enough time and energy to waste here." Zhao Shoushou transformed into a stream of light and disappeared without a trace at an unprecedented speed.
If a late-stage monk wants to leave smoothly and break out of the encirclement, and simply wants to evacuate without being blocked by monsters of comparable strength, it is not enough to just rely on these mutant ants. At most, they are just a small trouble.
.
In addition, during the evacuation process, Zhao Shoushou picked a fourth-grade high-quality Gastrodia elata tree near the ant nest, and this Gastrodia elata tree had obviously grown for a long time.
At the top of Gastrodia elata, the bulging seeds have matured, and the unique fragrance of Gastrodia elata dissipates all around.
Gastrodia elata has a wide range of uses. The seeds can be used as elixirs to refine elixirs, and the main part can be used as the main material for refining fourth-level high-grade Houtian Lingbao. It can be said that the whole body is full of treasures.
For Zhao Shoushou or his successor Peiling Men, who is famous for cultivating elixirs, the mature seeds on Gastrodia elata are the most meaningful and precious.
With the existence of these four seeds, the Peiling Sect can use special means and with sufficient time to expand it little by little. As long as there is enough patience, it can be expanded into a stable ethnic group.
A group of fourth-grade high-grade Gastrodia elata that can be produced continuously and stably has undoubted value to any sect.
Even if Zhao Shoushou succeeds in becoming a god and ascends to the spiritual world in the future or falls unexpectedly in the process, with this piece of fourth-grade high-grade Gastrodia elata as the foundation, the future of the Peiling Sect will be limitless.
The most important point is that Gastrodia elata does not have too stringent requirements for the growth environment. It only needs a sufficient supply of spiritual power to grow smoothly. Compared with some other types of fourth-level high-grade products, it appears to be quite approachable.
This gastrodia elata is also very important to the mutant ant colony, and its unique fragrance is fatally attractive to them.
When Zhao Shoushou took away this Gastrodia elata plant, it was as if he had touched the butt of a tiger, and the mutant ant colony suddenly fell into rage.
Some of the flying ants with wings that could fly short distances appeared one after another and pursued them decisively, but their numbers were ultimately too few and scattered.
The advantage of mutant ants lies in their numbers. When this advantage is lost, it will not be able to affect a late-stage monk at all.
Facing the flying ants that were surrounded from all directions, Zhao Shoushou was just scratching the surface. He had already killed them all with three strikes, five by five, and two by two. Only some of the luckier ones escaped by flapping their wings.
Return to the nest faster than before.
For mutant ant nests, these ones with wings that can fly are also mutant species, which are quite precious and should not be wasted easily.
Although a Gastrodia elata plant is precious, it is not indispensable to the entire ant colony. When faced with a strong opponent, the only choice is to run away.
"There are treasures everywhere in the secret realm, and there are also dangers everywhere. The danger is higher than expected. This is just a nest of mutated ants. If you accidentally break into a group of monsters with strong individual strength, it will be very difficult for Zhao
It is the most dangerous thing for someone." Zhao Shoushou murmured, and his vigilance became even higher.
Of course, in addition to vigilance, there are also some hopes, some hopes of assisting the rapid improvement of cultivation level or the hope of reaching the divine stage in the future. This is the fourth-level high-grade secret realm.
For a late-stage person, there must be some precious fourth-level high-grade elixirs that can be used to improve one's cultivation. There are not only some treasures of heaven, materials, and earth like grains and stones.
In short, judging from the current situation, Zhao Shoushou has great confidence in this place. As long as he has enough energy and confidence, he will definitely gain something.
Of course, the first goal before him must be to complete the deal with the Taoist Sect and find suitable monsters as soon as possible to hunt them one by one.
In particular, some fourth-order high-grade monsters that are as powerful as late-stage Nascent Soul monks are naturally ranked first. You also need to be very cautious when choosing opponents of this level.
On the one hand, it is necessary to distinguish the strength and type of monsters. Zhao Shoushou does not want to hastily choose a powerful opponent and cause heavy losses to himself; on the other hand, the monsters' lair must also have matching treasures. After all,
This is his fundamental purpose.
For a monk to return empty-handed after a fierce battle with nothing gained is the most intolerable and unacceptable thing, especially for a being like Zhao Shoushou who is dedicated to improving his cultivation.
Soon he had begun to investigate the surroundings, hoping to have a deeper understanding of the environment here, and to know himself and his enemy, he would never be in danger.
If we don't have a clear understanding of this place before the real war begins, it will be irresponsible for life safety.
It was also this period of investigation that gave him a new understanding of the richness of this secret realm. First- and second-level elixirs and spiritual materials are everywhere, and third-level spiritual objects are also emerging in endlessly, which are suitable for the Nascent Soul stage.
The monks are not too lacking in fourth-level spiritual objects. There are more or less growths in some places with abundant spiritual power, and there are also some spiritual mineral veins.
