With the cooperation of the magical power 'Roar of the Giant Spirit' and the invisible interference and binding power caused by the twenty-third-level 'Top-grade Talisman'.
Originally, because they were in the light beams of a group of eight-level control talisman arrays emitted by twenty humanoid puppets, the remaining six 'large monsters' whose movement speed dropped significantly were finally forcibly stagnated.
Come down.
Taking this opportunity, Gao Yuan held an 'advanced crystallized magic core' in one hand, and with the help of the system's condensation, he continuously supplied 'spiritual energy' to his body.
While mobilizing the surging 'spiritual power' that was transformed, he used the 'Blue Sky Sword' magic weapon with all his strength, and launched a fierce attack on the six 'large strange demons' who were controlled in place and unable to move.
I saw a series of turquoise afterimages that were more than ten meters long and appeared in interlocking patterns. Against the background of the black threads that continued to emerge in the surrounding void, they repeatedly passed around these 'large strange monsters'.
Accompanied by a series of intensive "dang-dang-dang" sounds and "puff-puff" sounds, these "large monsters" continued to turn into puddles of minced meat, and collapsed to the ground one after another.
In an instant, only the last two of the 'large strange demons' who were still standing there were left.
Gao Yuan felt a little relieved at this. While he controlled the 'Blue Sky Sword' to slash at one of them, he himself activated the 'Shaking Heaven Fist' with the golden light flowing.
His right fist was wrapped with the transformed powerful 'Burning Heaven and Collapsing Mountain Gang Jin', and struck heavily towards the abdomen of the last 'Large Weird Demon'.
"Dang~!"
Along with the sound of a clear bell, the frost, vines and other control effects wrapped around the last 'large monster' were all shattered under Gao Yuan's violent punch.
And the jade-like crystal luster on the exposed belly of this 'large monster' was also shrouded in the raging fist wind, and began to move rapidly as if stones were thrown into the water.
.
Its huge body, which was more than ten feet tall, also flew backwards.
But before it could fly two meters, it was locked in place again by the invisible binding force emitted by those third-level 'top quality talismans'.
"Hoo~~!"
After the layers of control effects on the surface of the body dissipated, this 'large monster', which had slightly recovered its ability to move, was suddenly shrouded in various control light beams again.
At the moment when his movements froze, he only had time to let out a shrill roar.
When Gao Yuan launched the attack just now, he removed the protection of the 'Scorching Sky Ning Yuan Gang Jin'.
Therefore, under the cover of the fierce roar issued by this 'large strange demon', he was immediately affected.
He felt a violent and strange energy coming down on his head.
While the operation of the 'spiritual power' in his body was blocked, his consciousness also experienced slight sluggishness under the influence of the violent vibration.
Gao Yuan was slightly startled, and subconsciously distanced himself from this 'large strange demon'. At the same time, he instinctively urged the 'Burning Sky Ning Yuan Gang Jin' to wrap himself up again.
While cutting down the attack from the soul in the roar of this 'large strange demon', he guided the 'Blue Sky Sword' that had just escaped and slashed towards the opponent again.
"Dang~dang~dang..."
"Puff~puff~puff..."
Amidst the familiar dense sounds, this last 'Large Monster', like its kind, finally turned into dozens of fragments under the fierce attack of the 'Blue Sky Knife', and collapsed helplessly.
above the ground.
"Breath of Another World 103..."
"Huh~!"
After the system's gray-white prompt text flashed by, Gao Yuan sighed subconsciously.
"What the hell... finally killed all these guys!"
"The 'weird demons' in this red area are actually much more powerful than the ones I encountered before!"
"Furthermore, it doesn't matter that the individual strength of these 'weird demons' has increased several times, and seven of them appeared at once to attack!"
"And this point was not reflected in the intelligence issued by the alliance before!"
"This is so fucking deceptive!"
Holding tightly in his hand an 'advanced crystallized magic core' that was being rapidly condensed by the system, Gao Yuan sighed subconsciously in his heart to quickly replenish the 'spiritual power' that had been depleted due to the previous battle.
At the same time, he took out the 'Collecting Fork' from the storage bag, walked forward skillfully, and dug out the corresponding 'Advanced Crystallized Demonic Cores' one by one from the bodies of these 'large monsters'.
out.
Corresponding to the powerful strength of these seven 'large monsters', the appearance of these 'advanced crystallized magic cores' dug out from their bodies are also obviously different from those he obtained before.
The most important difference is the size. Different from the size of ordinary goose eggs, the seven 'advanced crystallized magic cores' collected this time are basically nearly twice as big as apples.
The color of its surface is also deeper than those that Gao Yuan obtained before.
"I wonder how much 'spiritual energy' can be extracted from these 'advanced crystallized magic cores' if they are condensed using the system?"
Taking the seven newly obtained 'advanced crystallized magic cores' in his hand and looking at them carefully, Gao Yuan muttered to himself curiously.
Then he stopped delaying and hurried towards the place where he had just encountered the seven 'large' monsters.
As expected, the weird-shaped building outline just discovered should be an ancient ruin mentioned in the previous information!
Gao Yuan's heart was naturally filled with interest for this kind of existence that was as thunderous as the moment he understood it.
…
After the big fight just now, when he entered the "red zone" again, Gao Yuan was obviously much more cautious than before.
Not only did the twenty humanoid battle puppets still form a queue, hovering steadily above his head.
And he himself did not care about the rapid consumption of 'spiritual power' in his body, and kept the 'Fire Sky Condensing Abyss Gang Jin' covering his whole body to prevent him from encountering a cluster attack of the same level of 'large monsters' just now.
However, the journey was uneventful, and he soon returned to the place where he had just encountered those 'large monsters'.
"What the hell?"
"Where are my relics?"
Looking at the empty ground in front of him, Gao Yuan felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured on him, and he exclaimed in pain.
He subconsciously looked around, and with the help of the map information recorded in his mind after on-the-spot investigation, he quickly ruled out the possibility that he was in the wrong place.
However, the area where the weird-looking building appeared just now has really turned into a flat black land. Not to mention ancient ruins, not even a hair is left!
The strange situation before him made him doubt his own judgment.
"Did you really run into the wrong place?"
"It shouldn't be!"
He whispered softly with some surprise.
After all, with the sharp perception brought by his powerful spiritual consciousness now, even in the "Grey Desert North Sixteenth District", an area with extremely rich chaotic demonic energy, he is unlikely to run the wrong route.
.
What's more, although out of caution, he immediately chose to retreat to the relatively safe 'yellow zone' when he encountered the attack of the seven 'large monsters', he only retreated less than ten miles in total.
It's just distance.
It was such a short distance, and it was within the "North Sixteenth District" where he was already very familiar with the terrain after several years of exploration, so there was no possibility of remembering the wrong place.
After ruling out the possibility of running into the wrong place, there was only one explanation left for the disappearance of the strange building that seemed to be an ancient ruin.
That is, during the period when he avoided fighting in the 'yellow zone', this ancient ruins disappeared on its own!
When he thought of this, Gao Yuan was suddenly speechless.
When he came across that weird building before, he said to himself that he was really lucky today.
Even though he was a little embarrassed as a result of being chased by the seven 'large monsters', it did not affect his mood at all.
Unexpectedly, after he spent a long time cleaning up the obstructive 'large monsters', when he came back, he saw that the ancient ruins were gone!
Isn’t this a scam?
"Can't the discoverer go too far while the ruins appear?"
"Otherwise, once you get too far away, a special mechanism will be triggered, causing the ruins to disappear on their own?"
Forcibly restraining his somewhat irritable mood, Gao Yuan analyzed secretly in his heart.
Besides, he really couldn't figure out the reason why such a large ruin disappeared out of thin air in less than ten minutes.
"If this is what I guessed, it would be a bit troublesome!"
"With my current strength, when going deep into the 'red zone' and facing more of the 'large monsters' just now, there is still a lot of risk!"
"After all, based on the actual battle just now, even if I use all my strength to attack with the 'Blue Sky Sword', it will take at least twenty seconds to completely kill a 'large monster'."
"And during the period between the encounter between the two sides and the use of various means to control these 'large monsters', I will inevitably need to move quickly to avoid the attack of these things."
"Once during this period, I trigger other hidden 'large monsters' again, then I will be in trouble!"
"After all, regardless of the actual attack capabilities of these 'large monsters', just the soul attack included in their roars, I can't completely save them even if I use all my methods!"
"Once you accidentally fall into a siege, you may have to kneel down!"
Quickly retreating to the relatively safe 'yellow zone', Gao Yuan casually killed the two ordinary 'weird demons' that just emerged from behind him, while quickly analyzing in his mind.
"It seems that if I want to go deep into the 'red zone' to explore the ancient ruins, my current strength at the sixth level of the Hunyuan Realm is still not enough."
"What's more, the magical power 'Roar of the Giant Spirit' has not yet reached the 'Dacheng Stage', so there is a lot of room for improvement."
"Unless you use the assistance of puppets, the 'Roar of the Giant Spirit' alone cannot instantly immobilize a 'large monster' like this like you can with ordinary 'devils'."
"Secondly, the grade of the 'Blue Sky Sword' is still a little low, and I have no intention of continuing to cultivate it as a natal magic weapon."
"Although it has been cultivated to the 'Dacheng Stage', it is still a little behind in terms of explosive power."
"So much so that I had to chop more than twenty times in a row just now to break through the crystal defense of a 'large treacherous demon'."
"When faced with the kind of siege encounter just now, in terms of power performance, it seems a bit out of line!"
When he thought of this, Gao Yuan suddenly felt helpless.
At the end of the jade slip he obtained that recorded the refining method of the 'Blue Sky Sword', there was also a description of the power of each grade of magic weapon.
Magic weapons, which can only be mastered by high-level monks, are divided into four levels: low-grade, medium-grade, high-grade, and top-grade.
Among them, the magic weapons of the lower, middle and upper grades have almost no other differences except for the difference in power.
Specifically, there will be a difference in power between magic weapons of two adjacent levels by about one 'level of accumulation'.
Taking Gao Yuan's 'Blue Sky Sword' magic weapon as an example, its cultivation level is the 'Dacheng Stage'. From a purely power point of view, it is roughly equivalent to the mid-grade magic weapon at the 'Small Success Stage'.
Or approximately equal to the power of a high-grade magic weapon when it reaches the 'initial stage of development'.
And this is also the main reason why the "Blue Sky Sword" in the "Dacheng Stage" performed unsatisfactorily when encountering the more powerful "Large Demon".
If in the previous battle, the 'Blue Sky Sword' was replaced with a high-grade magic weapon from the 'Dacheng Stage', then if Gao Yuan wanted to kill that kind of 'large monster', it might only be a matter of three or two swords!
As for magic weapons that reach the highest level, their functions are more special.
It will not only go a step further in terms of actual combat power, but also reach an extreme.
What's more important is that when the best magic weapon reaches the 'Dacheng Stage', it will awaken at least one, or even several, 'supernatural powers'!
This makes the best magic weapons often have a crushing advantage in terms of growth potential compared to magic weapons of other grades!
Secondly, in addition to the impact of the magic weapon’s grade on its final power, there is also a more important bonus item, which is the ‘natal magic weapon’!
Also taking Gao Yuan's 'Blue Sky Sword' as an example, cultivating it to the 'Dacheng Stage' is not the peak of this magic weapon's power.
In addition, you can also use specific ‘heart training’ to refine it into a ‘life magic weapon’!
It is different from the ordinary way of refining it into the body and floating it outside the 'spiritual orifice'.
A magic weapon that has been refined into a 'natural magic weapon' will have a closer connection with its owner.
It can correspond one-to-one with ordinary magic weapons to the 'divine apertures' of Hunyuan Realm monks, and when added to the number of magical powers, up to nine different kinds can be practiced.
A Hunyuan Realm monk can only possess one 'natal magic weapon' at the same time.
At the same time, when the cultivator is not using the 'natal magic weapon', he can put it into the 'natal pearl' and use the special environment inside the latter to further nourish it.
Therefore, no matter what grade a magic weapon is, once it is refined into a 'natal magic weapon', its power has no specific upper limit.
Its ultimate power depends purely on the level of cultivation it receives at ordinary times.
In this case, the original grade of the magic weapon will only affect the speed of improvement of the 'natal magic weapon' after it reaches the 'Dacheng Stage'.
Generally speaking, the higher the original grade of a magic weapon, the faster it will grow through accumulation after it becomes a 'natal magic weapon'.
For this reason, after Gao Yuan obtained the refining method of the 'Blue Sky Sword', he had no intention of refining it as a 'natal magic weapon'.
After all, although any level of 'natal magic weapon' can theoretically have unlimited growth potential as long as enough energy is invested in cultivating it.
However, as a low-grade 'Blue Sky Sword', after it reaches the 'Dacheng Stage', its speed of further accumulation and improvement will be far inferior to higher-grade magic weapons.
"It's true that we still need to obtain a higher-grade magic weapon refining method!"
"Otherwise, even if I now rely on the convenience of the system, I have relatively good strength."
"But with this kind of strength, at most it can only bully those ordinary Hunyuan realm monks."
"Once I face the top Hunyuan realm monks affiliated to a behemoth like 'Flying Dragon City', if I don't have a top-grade or even top-grade 'natal magic weapon', I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to have an advantage!"
"But now, apart from waiting for the 'Tiandong Auction' that happens every ten years, the only way I can obtain the magic weapon refining method is through the platform of the Exile Alliance."
"But judging from the recent auctions, not to mention top-grade magic weapons, even mid-to-high-grade magic weapons have to be considered for their reputation!"
As his mind turned, Gao Yuanda suddenly turned his attention to the 'Whip Holder' organization.
"According to the previous intelligence consultation, after the 'Whip Holder' star level is raised to two stars, the authority to initiate exchange applications for designated items to the alliance will be unlocked."
"Compared to spending money in the alliance auction, I feel this channel is more reliable!"
"It just so happens that during this period, the frequency of alliance missions has increased a lot compared to before. I might as well take this opportunity to increase my whip holder's star level to two stars first!"
As his mind wandered, Gao Yuan took out the jade dial and checked the time.
It was just after midnight, around 3:30 in the afternoon, and there was still some time before dark.
Before that, he planned to explore the 'red zone' again to verify the accuracy of his guess.
After making up his mind, he stopped delaying and quickly flew towards the 'red zone'.
