Chapter 599: Hunting in the Jungle (Please Subscribe, Please Bookmark)

Monsters are different from cultivators. Whether they are just entering the first level or the third level comparable to the Jindan stage cultivators, or even the fourth level monsters, they all need to devour a lot of blood food to maintain their own cultivation needs.

Therefore, each monster usually demarcates a fixed territory, and the stronger the monster, the larger the territory.

All prey within the entire territory are their blood food, and the importance of monsters to the territory is far beyond the imagination of cultivators.

Whenever monsters or cultivators of the same level enter their territory, these monsters will definitely appear to expel or hunt them down as soon as possible.

In addition, the improvement of the level of monster cultivation also requires abundant spiritual power and spiritual medicine as assistance, so there must be a spiritual vein in the monster's territory as the monster's nest.

Especially for some group-living monsters, the spiritual vein in the territory is usually also a place for the entire tribe to rest. Once they enter their territory, they will rush in like poking a hornet's nest.

It just so happens that these powerful and gregarious monsters are usually good at business, and there are usually some carefully cultivated and expensive spiritual medicines in the spiritual veins of their nests.

The spiritual medicines planted by the monks are usually to open up spiritual medicine gardens to plant spiritual seeds and seedlings, and shorten the growth period of the spiritual medicines by increasing the supply of spiritual power, so as to urge them to mature early.

And because the density of spiritual medicine planting is high, other means are usually used as auxiliary in the growth process, and their medicinal properties will be more or less suppressed and reduced.

These spiritual medicines growing on the monsters' territory are completely in another state, and basically grow naturally in places with abundant spiritual power.

In addition, the monsters have a relatively sufficient lifespan compared to the monks, so these spiritual medicines still have a certain auxiliary use for the monks.

If everything goes well, Sun Mingsheng can not only successfully complete the task of obtaining the soul of the monster, capturing blood food to cultivate the black-striped ant queen, but also get some high-quality spiritual medicines.

Of course, in this endless jungle, Jindan-stage cultivators must also be careful. Once they encounter some powerful monsters head-on, serious injuries and failure are also normal outcomes.

"Although there are a large number of first- and second-level spiritual medicines growing outside the jungle, there are also a lot of first- and second-level monsters here. The combat effectiveness of each one cannot be underestimated. I wonder how many of these cultivators can gain from here."

Sun Mingsheng's figure flashed by, and he looked at the more than a hundred Qi Refining and Foundation Building cultivators on the ground fighting with all their might, and he couldn't help showing a look of emotion.

These cultivators fighting outside the jungle are basically independent cultivators and some micro-families whose inheritance has not been stable. In the absence of other means, they can only obtain cultivation resources in this way.

The whole hunting process is undoubtedly quite bloody. There are successes and failures. The successful ones can exchange some spiritual objects to improve their own cultivation and combat effectiveness, and then get on the right track.

On the contrary, the loser can only become blood food in the belly of the monster, and all the past efforts will be wiped out, leaving no trace. In short, this is also a process of sifting the rough and selecting the fine.

In addition to the fight between monks and monsters, the fight between monks for a little spoils is also extremely cruel.

Especially for some casual cultivators in the Qi Refining Period, a fight may break out just for a spiritual medicine worth less than ten spiritual stones. In short, the degree of bloodiness and cruelty is far beyond imagination.

Relatively speaking, it will be a little easier for family and sect monks. Even if they need to hunt monsters, they will have family elders to provide some help, and the risk is greatly reduced.

Two days later, Sun Mingsheng's figure has appeared in the core of the dense forest.

The spiritual power emitted in the core of this dense forest is comparable to the spiritual veins of Shenquan Mountain, so the monsters that are qualified to rest and occupy territory here are at least above the third level.

Sun Mingsheng has been working hard to improve his cultivation over the years, but he only broke through the bottleneck and advanced to the second level of the Golden Elixir with the help of the two two-headed ginseng fruits he got in the Endless Sea.

After his cultivation was promoted, he did not slack off at all. No matter when and where he was, he had to ensure normal practice time every day.

The mana obtained by running the Great Circulation is undoubtedly a drop in the bucket for a golden elixir in the dantian in the abdomen, and the improvement of his cultivation is also limited.

In his current state, he can defeat a third-level low-grade monster head-on, guarantee his own life safety with a third-level middle-grade monster, and can only flee with a third-level high-grade monster. The final result is not certain at all, and it depends more on luck.

Therefore, although Sun Mingsheng entered the boundless dense forest to search, he would not easily attack a certain monster. Everything is based on his own safety.

"Meow"

Unfortunately, things don't go as planned. Even Jindan-stage cultivators have no other choice but to fight against this sudden battle.

A black and white cat shot out from a dense clump of lush branches and leaves, and seemed to have identified Sun Mingsheng, a Jindan-level 2 cultivator, as its target. A cold light flashed on its sharp claws and rushed straight to Sun Mingsheng's neck.

"Black and white civet cat, there is such a little fellow in this dense forest. Since it has come to my door, I will not be polite."

Facing this civet cat that came to his door, Sun Mingsheng naturally did not show any fear. He did not want to easily provoke other monsters, but he would not avoid fighting against those who came to his door to provoke him.

Black and white civet cats are famous for their flexibility and speed. Their combat power is not too outstanding. Therefore, facing this little fellow, Sun Mingsheng is basically invincible.

It is worth noting that this civet cat is quite intelligent, and it does not have the character of most monsters that will fight to the death once the war starts. Instead, it is well aware of the fact that a man who knows the current situation is a hero. Once it is defeated and falls into a disadvantage in the battle, it will start looking for a suitable opportunity to evacuate.

It happened in a flash. When the civet cat's front paws appeared less than ten feet away from Sun Mingsheng's face with bursts of cold light, it opened its mouth and sprayed out the Nanshan Seal magic weapon.

With the support of the golden elixir's sufficient mana, the Nanshan Seal rose against the wind, and with its own weight and natural heat, it fiercely hit the black and white civet cat.

"Meow"

As if it sensed the danger, the civet cat turned 360 degrees very lightly and narrowly passed by the Nanshan Seal.

"Broad-bladed broadsword, go"

Facing this situation, Sun Mingsheng had naturally anticipated it early, and another magic weapon, the broadsword, burst out with bursts of cold light and chopped down.

Compared with the Nanshan Seal, this magic weapon may be slightly inferior in attack, but it has a clear advantage in flexibility.

In his calculation, it was as if the civet cat had taken the initiative to hit him.
