Chapter 70 Beast Tide Erupts (with Illustrations)

Three days passed in a flash, and Long Xuan's injuries were almost healed under the powerful self-healing power of Xiaoqiang Gu.

Of course, he couldn't write anything in these three days, but he still gained something.

At least he knew that this Gu recipe not only required nine top-grade spirit insects, but also required the corresponding body parts of nine spirit beasts.

For example, if the dragon head is like a deer, then the Gu recipe must have deer antlers.

For example, if the dragon scales are like fish, then the Gu recipe must have fish scales.

For example, if the dragon claws are like eagles, then the Gu recipe must have eagle claws.

And it can't be the beast materials of ordinary spirit beasts, it must be the beast materials of rare spirit beasts, and it must come from the beast king.

Materials without the aura of the king are not acceptable.

In this case, how can the price be cheap? Collecting nine kinds of beast king materials at the same time can be so expensive that you vomit blood, plus nine top-grade spirit insects.

Long Xuan's scalp numbed, it was too expensive, and it was so expensive before he wrote down a few materials. By the time the Gu recipe was complete, wouldn't he have to use up half of his small treasury? Long Xuan's face looked uglier than crying.

Since his injury was almost healed, Long Xuan did not plan to stay on the tree.

He still needed to go home to heal the liver poison, where it was quiet and no one would disturb him.

It was a place where you had to be on edge and distracted. This was not a good place to do research.

Just as Long Xuan was about to get down from the tree, he suddenly saw a cheetah holding its prey and climbing up a nearby tree. His pupils shrank instantly.

Who told him that it was dangerous and safe to climb a tree? I promise not to kill him.

So Long Xuan did not dare to move, not even to breathe, for fear that the cheetah would notice his prey.

This was a spirit beast that could climb trees. If it caught sight of him, he would have nowhere to run. It might even fire another vitality bomb.

He did not dare to make the slightest sound. The hearing of many spirit beasts was dozens or even hundreds of times that of humans. He could not afford the risk.

It was not until the cheetah had a good meal on the tree and fell asleep on the trunk that he felt relieved, climbed down the tree carefully, and finally fled away from here.

Along the way, his Eye of Heaven was open all the time.

His Eye of Heaven could see the spirit beast from a very far distance, so he could avoid danger in time, unlike other casual cultivators, who would run into the perception range of the spirit beast. When they wanted to run again, how could they run away with the terrifying speed of the spirit beast?

It must be said that Long Xuan's eye was really helpful to him. The Eye of Heaven and the assistance of the golden finger were enough to help him avoid more than 90% of the dangers in the forest.

But because of this, he basically did not encounter any danger, so his courage gradually grew.

You know, the dragon Gu Gu recipe he was creating requires nine kinds of top-grade spirit insects. If he collected them step by step, how long would it take to collect them?

So he had to take a risk and try to hunt the spirit beast.

You have to know that it is not possible for him to find the best spiritual insects in the forest, but he will definitely find the best spiritual insects. His golden finger is simply a bug in this world.

It is nothing more than the problem that the best spiritual insects he found do not meet his requirements, which is also a difficult task for him.

There are so many kinds of best spiritual insects in this world, how could he just happen to encounter the kind he needs.

So even if he has a golden finger to cheat, it is not an easy task to find a suitable target.

This search took Long Xuan a whole month.

During this month, he encountered countless spiritual beasts carrying spiritual insects, and even encountered several spiritual beasts carrying best spiritual insects.

But these few best spiritual insects are not the kind he needs, and the spiritual beasts are powerful. He is not sure whether he can beat them, so he dare not take risks, so he left without any regrets.

His character is like this, life safety is above everything else, even if there is a huge treasure in front of him, don't think of tempting him to take risks, unless it is 100% safe, otherwise he will not consider even a 10% risk rate.

After searching for a month, just when he was about to give up, his efforts paid off and he found a spiritual beast that met his standards completely.

When his Eye of Heaven saw this spiritual beast, his eyes suddenly lit up, and then Long Xuan ran over quickly. He had been looking for the best spiritual insect for a whole month, but it was really hard for him to find it.

In the sight of the Eye of Heaven, there was a big green fish lying on the shore basking in the sun.

This big fish was already as tall as a person, with green scales all over its body, and two pairs of fins in front and behind were large and powerful, which could actually support it to walk on the shore. It had an overbite, a pouting lower lip, and a fierce look.

It was exactly the kind of fish he was looking for, called the dragon fish. After repeated attempts, he found that the material for the dragon poison must be the parasite of the dragon fish, and no other fish species would work. Otherwise, why would he go to such great lengths and find the target after a whole month.

And there happened to be a top-quality spiritual insect lying at the spiritual core of this dragon fish, which was really a blessing from heaven.

Long Xuan suddenly became excited. After approaching the target, he began to walk carefully, not making any sound with his footsteps, so as not to scare the big dragon fish back into the water.

Once the dragon fish returns to the water, it is like a fish in the sea. It will be extremely difficult to catch it again.

In the end, Long Xuan leaned against a big tree to block the sight of the dragon fish and began to think about how to kill the dragon fish.

The aura of this dragon fish is that of a first-level peak spirit beast, which is comparable to a Gu cultivator at the peak of the spirit gathering stage.

Long Xuan has the Ten Absolute Body and can fight against this dragon fish. He has the strength to fight against it.

However, Long Xuan's overly cautious mentality began to come up again. Although he has the strength to fight, what if something unexpected happens?

In the same level, the spirit beast is stronger than the Gu cultivator. How can he treat it as a Gu cultivator at the peak of the spirit gathering stage? What if he can't win, or it simply doesn't fight and escapes back to the water?

Long Xuan has a thousand "what ifs" in his mind.

In his opinion, there is no battle in this world that has a 100% chance of winning. So far, all his opponents believe that they will win, and they are lenient with their enemies. But what is the result?

The grass on their graves had grown so tall, and this batch of people had no bones left, not even a grave.

So Long Xuan didn't plan to rush up rashly. The biggest difference between humans and beasts is the difference in IQ. He had to use the most stable method to resolve the battle and never take any risks, even if there was a 90% success rate.

Long Xuan thought for a moment. There were really not many things he could use. The original world might not work. This guy was a beast king, and his realm was higher than his.

After thinking about it, he finally put a large jar of distilled wine on the ground, and then hid himself in a hidden position on the tree.

Spiritual wine contains huge spiritual power and has the effect of spiritual pills, which is very attractive to spiritual beasts.

Especially since this is a jar of spicy wine, it has the effect of permanently increasing strength after drinking, which is even more attractive to spiritual beasts.

At the same time, spicy wine is also the strongest among his four flavors of wine.

Although this big dragon fish is huge, it can't stand steady once it drinks this jar of wine. Even Xiaobai, the wine-gu, can't stand the strength of distilled wine, let alone a spiritual beast?

As long as it drinks, it will definitely get drunk, and then this big dragon fish will become fish meat on his chopping board, and he can slaughter it at will.

Even if it knows how to restrain itself and stops after a little tasting and doesn't get drunk, as long as it is led away from the seaside, the plan will be considered a success.

Fish must be best at water battles, so it must be kept away from the seaside. Fighting inland will definitely reduce the combat effectiveness of a fish by more than ten times. At that time, even if it is discovered and forced to fight head-on, the chances of winning will be much greater.

This can also prevent it from quickly escaping back to the sea once it is defeated, which is simply killing two birds with one stone.

Suddenly considering that the spiritual wine may not be able to attract this big dragon fish, Long Xuan put honey and a large amount of spiritual pills on the ground, even the gathering spirit pills, and then hid back in the tree.

He had learned it from the enemy a long time ago.

To be honest, this trap is a bit childish. Any normal person would not be fooled.

There was nothing around just now, but suddenly there are more treasures, and all kinds of treasures appear together. Who are they trying to fool? I'm afraid even a fool would not believe it.

But you don't say, the spirit beasts might really believe it. Even a seven-year-old child would not be fooled by such a simple trap, but the spirit beasts might be fooled.

Especially the fish spirit beasts, they are obviously not blind, and they will bite the sharp hook in the water, and then be caught by humans. Don't you think it's strange?

Its trap is much more sophisticated than the fish hook. It can't fool people, but it's easy to fool a stupid fish, isn't it?

It turned out to be true, just as Long Xuan expected.

The big dragon fish lying on the shore basking in the sun suddenly sniffed, and soon his eyes lit up, and he crawled over following the smell of wine.

Long Xuan was overjoyed. It was really a stupid fish. As a fish, it dared to run inland. If you don't die, who will die? Eating it wouldn't affect its IQ, right?

The big dragon fish waved its two pairs of large fins in front and back, and soon fluttered to the wine jar. It sniffed inside and immediately showed an intoxicated look.

Suddenly, its fierce brows frowned, as if it noticed that something seemed wrong, so it immediately looked around with vigilant eyes, but it didn't look up.

After seeing that there was no one around, it finally put its mind at ease, thinking that it was overthinking, and then began to enjoy the delicious spirit wine with peace of mind, and its expression was intoxicated.

Although it was big, its alcohol tolerance was really not good. Before it could drink a few sips, it staggered, and then fell to the ground and fell asleep.

From the tree, Long Xuan could hear its deafening snoring, and its belly rose and fell with the snoring.

"Success!"

Long Xuan was overjoyed. It was indeed a stupid fish. It was so easy to fool. He took it down with a little trick.

Long Xuan slowly climbed down from the tree, trying not to make any noise. Even if the big dragon fish was drunk, he would never let down his guard.

Long Xuan tiptoed to the side of the big dragon fish, and then...

"Destroying Life Palm!"

"Destroying Life Palm!"

"Destroying Life Palm!"

...

And then there was nothing else.

Long Xuan skinned and deveined the big dragon fish, and after a delicious meal of fish meat, he left with the remaining fish meat and the green top-grade spirit insect.

He was in a very good mood after getting another top-grade spirit insect. He hummed a little tune along the way and planned to look for the third top-grade spirit insect.

It must be said that he was addicted to finding top-grade spirit insects. He was completely addicted.

He was so greedy that he really wanted to collect all nine top-grade spirit insects in one go.

However, just as he had this idea for a while, he suddenly heard a slight vibration from the ground, as if a large group of things were running.

His face suddenly changed slightly, and he hurriedly looked into the distance with the Eye of Heaven. He really saw an acquaintance.

He saw that Li Laodao and the little medicine boy were running towards this side desperately, with panic expressions, and looking back from time to time.

Long Xuan looked behind them. Wow, there was actually a group of black rats chasing behind them, a dark mass.

But aren't these black rats a bit too big? Many of them are half a person tall? You call these rats? They are spirits!

Although Long Xuan had seen this group of rats in advance, he did not choose to dodge in time.

This group of rats seemed to be numerous, but they were all ordinary spirit beasts of the first stage, so he was not afraid at all. When the rats were about to approach him, he took advantage of the situation and used a flaming palm, and the sea of ​​fire instantly covered the rats.

How could a first-stage spirit beast withstand the attack of the flaming palm? A large number of rats is sometimes scary. They are obviously first-stage spirit beasts, but they can rely on the advantage of numbers to surround and kill a Gu cultivator at the peak of the gathering spirit.

Even a Gu cultivator at the marrow washing stage may be killed. If the number is larger, even a Gu cultivator at the spiritual sea stage will have to temporarily avoid the edge.

But sometimes the rats are not scary, just like the group of black beetles killed by Long Xuan. The scary thing about social creatures is the number. In fact, a single one is not strong at all, and it is easy to be killed by a large-scale attack group.

Long Xuan was one of the few Gu cultivators who had a powerful move that could defy the heavens. He was not afraid of such things that came in groups, whether they were insects or beasts.

He only used a flaming palm move, and the huge group of rats was basically burned to ashes, and the two extras were saved by the way.

"I saved your lives again. Now each of you owes me two lives. You should think about how to repay me for saving your lives." Long Xuan made a joke.

Li Laodao and the little medicine boy sat on the ground, breathing heavily. They seemed to be very tired and almost reached their limit. If Long Xuan was slower, the old man and the child would be swallowed by the rats, even if they had Xiaoqiang Gu.

After a long while, Taoist Li finally caught his breath. He bowed to Long Xuan and said, "Thank you for your help, little friend. I owe you a favor."

The little medicine boy also said, "Thank you very much. What kind of magic did you use just now? I have never seen it before!"

"For any attack, the attack range and attack power are inversely correlated. Single-attack magic has high attack power, while group-attack magic has weak attack power. If you want to pursue the attack range, you must disperse your power and give up the attack power."

"Not only does your magic have a large attack range, but your attack power is also surprisingly large. It is definitely not an ordinary magic." The little medicine boy looked at Long Xuan with surprise.

"Is it powerful? It may be because of the Ten Absolute Body." Long Xuan said casually.

Taoist Li and the little medicine boy both showed an expression of disbelief. They were not stupid. Every ability used by Long Xuan along the way was something they had never seen before.

Especially the white energy ball that exploded and almost killed them. Not to mention that they had seen it before, they couldn't believe that there was such a powerful magic. It was simply too exaggerated.

If they haven't seen one or two, it may be that they are ignorant. If they haven't seen all of them, then they have to doubt one thing. Those incredible spiritual arts couldn't all be created by this kid himself.

Li Laodao and the little medicine boy looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes.

Long Xuan didn't want to talk about this topic any more, so he changed the subject and asked: "Tell me about you, why are you being chased by a group of rats everywhere, why do you provoke them for no reason."

"This thing is no different from that group of rabbits. Although the tribe is huge, it actually can't drop any good stuff. It's completely thankless to provoke them."

Li Laodao shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It's not that I want to provoke them, it's a rat tide, no, to be precise, there is a beast tide now, and the rat group is just a tribe in the beast tide."

"And we only encountered a small group of rats. It's also our luck that we didn't encounter a large group. There are no flying rats, fire rats, or even rat kings in the rat swarm. "

"Otherwise, not only will you fail to save us, but you will also get yourself into trouble. No matter how powerful your spiritual arts are, you can't fight against that level of rat tide."

"That's right!" The little medicine boy stood up and said with a serious look: "The predictions of those Gu Kings are correct. Now the beast tide has erupted in the Hundred Thousand Mountains, and the scale is unprecedentedly large. It will flow into various regions of the human world. The scale of the beast tide is extremely rare in the past thousand years."

"The Hundred Thousand Mountains are now in chaos. It is no longer a place to stay for a long time. We must leave here as quickly as possible."

"We were lucky to encounter a small group of rats this time. Next time we encounter a large group of rats, we won't be so lucky to escape."
