The Xiuxian family can't float

Chapter 407 Stone forest quarrying stone mushrooms, a sudden battle!
A group of 13 people went towards the stone forest, and encountered many powerful monsters on the way.

But these 13 people are not covered. Although they are sometimes in a hurry, they always work steadily.

After spending half a day in this way, they finally arrived at the outskirts of the stone forest.

At this time, there were already many stone pillars around the crowd, scattered around them.

"The concentration of spiritual energy inside is very high, and there will probably be powerful monsters."

Ling Youdao said with a slight frown as he looked at the faintly visible stone forest wrapped in mist.

That mist is not an ordinary mist, but a spirit mist, which is the expression of aura that is strong to a certain extent.

Hearing this, many people frowned instantly, and looked at Shi Lin with serious eyes.

Ling Youdao has the strength of fake pills, even he is so cautious when facing Shi Lin, how can those cultivators who don't have the strength of fake pills not be cautious.

In contrast, Ling Dingshan and Ling Youxian seemed relatively indifferent.

It's not that the two are conceited, but their "confidence" in their own strength is due to their personality.

"go in."

With that said, Ling Youdao and Ling Dingshan stepped into the stone forest first, and the rest followed closely behind them.

The moment everyone entered the stone forest, the cries of various creatures rang in their ears, as if they were in a primitive jungle.

"what happened?"

The sudden change shocked several people in the team.

Seeing this, Ling Youdao immediately said: "Fellow Taoists, don't panic, this is the characteristic of Stone Forest, and the same is true for people who entered here in the past."

Although everyone got some introductions to the environment on Haiji Island before they came in.

But Haiji Island is too big, and there are too many places, and the few places these people know do not include Stone Forest.

But Ling Youdao was lucky, and he obtained several records about the environment on Haiji Island, and this stone forest is one of them.

He knew that this was Shi Lin's characteristic, so not only was he not in a hurry, but he also told others not to be in a hurry.

Hearing what Ling Youdao said, everyone obviously relaxed a lot.

While talking, a little squirrel quickly climbed up in front of everyone.

Everyone's eyes lit up immediately, but none of them had the intention of making a move.

This is obviously a monster that has not yet activated its spiritual intelligence. Its strength is very limited, and it is useless to catch it.

The little squirrel quickly climbed up another small rocky mountain, stood on the top of the small rocky mountain, drooping its paws, and looked at the people below with a pair of dark eyes, like a bored crowd.

In fact, everyone has been trying their best to hide their aura, because they are worried that there is a third-tier monster in this stone forest. If the other party detects their own aura, they will inevitably attract powerful third-tier monsters.

There may or may not be a third-tier monster in the stone forest. The three dare not take risks, so they can only hide their aura.

It was also because everyone was hiding their aura that the little squirrel on the top of Xiaoshi Mountain dared to get so close to everyone.

You must know that everyone is a monk in the foundation period, and three of them are comparable to the monks in the fake alchemy period.

But this little squirrel could not withstand the coercion of the crowd except for its intelligence. If it was forced to bear it, it would most likely face death.

"This stone forest is rich in stone mushrooms, which are a second-tier top-grade elixir. In addition, there are other second-tier elixir, and there are even third-tier elixir, but the number is very small. If you want to get it, it depends on the strength of fellow Taoists."

Stone mushrooms, second-tier high-grade elixir, are auxiliary materials for refining some healing elixirs. For body-refining monks, the medicinal effects contained in this elixir have a very good tempering effect on their skin and flesh .

Generally speaking, the value of stone mushrooms as an elixir is very good, and the quantity is large, so the total value is not low.

The main purpose of everyone coming to Stone Forest this time is to collect stone mushrooms.

"When picking, don't be too far away from the three of us, and try not to emit your own breath. Alright, let's start picking stone mushrooms."

As soon as these words came out, everyone immediately said: "Okay."

The next moment, everyone approached the nearest small stone mountain, took out the small knives they had prepared, and began to pick stone mushrooms growing on the stone.

Generally, two or three people occupy a small rocky mountain, and they will not be too far away from the large army.

The so-called large force is Ling Youdao, Ling Dingshan, and Ling Youxian. Because the three of them are the strongest, the closer they are, the safer they will be.

Ling Youdao and Mu Yanran occupied a small stone mountain, each took out a small knife, grabbed the stone mushroom growing on the stone with his left hand, and scratched the stones around the stone mushroom with the knife on his right hand.

Although these stones are very hard, they cannot compare with the knives in their hands.

Then I saw that Ling Youdao made a big cut on the stone with a light force, and after several consecutive strokes, he took off the stone mushroom and the stone.

He shook it hard, and the stone wrapped around the root of the stone mushroom in his hand was shattered in an instant, and then floated to the side.

At this time, a stone mushroom stayed in his hand.

Stone mushrooms have the same structure as common mushrooms, but they look very similar to fungus, and the black seeds are light green.

Ling Youdao put the stone mushroom in his hand into the storage bag, then continued to grab the stone mushroom with his left hand, and cut the stone with the knife in his right hand...

There is very little energy in the stone, so it is difficult to support a large number of stone mushrooms.

Generally, no more than ten stone mushrooms grow on each small rocky mountain, and sometimes only one or two stone mushrooms grow.

The stone mountain that Ling Youdao and Mu Yanran chose was not small, and within a short time, the two together picked five stone mushrooms.

The little squirrel drooped its paws, looked at the two people below, and yelled at the two of them, looking annoyed.

However, not only the recent Ling Youdao and Mu Yanran ignored it, but the rest of the people also ignored it, as if it didn't exist.

Seeing this, the little squirrel, who had just opened his mind, became even more annoyed, screaming louder, and stomping his feet on the top of the rocky mountain.

The reason why the little squirrel was able to open up its wisdom was thanks to these stone mushrooms. Since it opened up its wisdom, it has always regarded these stone mushrooms as its own treasures.

Yes, these stone mushrooms are immature.

But everyone can't control it for long, because they simply don't have time to wait for these stone mushrooms to mature.

Of course, even if these stone mushrooms are not mature, they are still worth a lot of spirit stones.

However, after everyone picked several rock mushrooms in a row, there was a sudden sound of a beast queen around them.

"Goo!"

Hearing this sound, everyone was startled, and immediately stopped their movements, took out their spiritual weapons in an instant, moved closer to each other, looked around vigilantly, and waited for the appearance of the monster.

On the top of the rocky mountain, when the distraught little squirrel heard this roar, it was startled for a moment, and then jumped up and down, chirping non-stop, as if it was very happy.

"If you call again, believe it or not, I will stew you."

With a square face, the thick-browed man said angrily.

Hearing this, the little squirrel was frightened and stood there quietly, not knowing what to do.

"Haha, Zhang Daoyou, why are you angry with a little squirrel?"

The thick-browed man with a square face is called Zhang Jiang, and he is a casual cultivator. He belongs to the kind who dares to fight and fight hard. He is not yet 120 years old, but he is already a late-stage monk.

He even possesses a high-grade spirit sword and a middle-grade spirit shield. Apart from the Ling four and the Yan brothers and sisters, his strength cannot be underestimated among the seven.

The person who spoke at the back was named Puyang, and he was also a monk in the late stage of Foundation Establishment.

This person has a long face and pointed nose, and is the patriarch of a small family. The power of the spiritual weapon in his hand is even stronger, and his strength is definitely the top three among the seven.

If Yan Qiong didn't have many treasures to protect her body, she would probably be as strong as this person.

As soon as Pu Yang's words came out, the people around couldn't help laughing.

To be honest, they were really not afraid at this time.

You must know that there are three fake pills here, afraid of a mere monster?
The reason for this is that they couldn't feel the breath of the monster, so they gathered together for safety's sake.

Zhang Jiang had a bad temper and said, "What's the matter with you?"

Puyang: "..."

The next moment, a monster unexpectedly emerged from the soil in front of him.

The monster looked like a mouse, but it was very different from a mouse.

First of all, the body shape is different. This monster is estimated to be one foot taller, its tail is as thick as a human thigh, and its feet are not much thinner than a millstone. It has a triangular head, dangling forelimbs, and sharp claws that are more than a foot long. The cold light is shining and extremely sharp.

In addition, there is a layer of bone armor on the back of the monster, which divides the back of the monster into pieces.

The moment the monster first appeared, the coercion unique to the second-tier top-grade monster surged towards everyone.

On the top of the stone mountain, the little squirrel looked at the sudden appearance of the monster with tears in his eyes, looking aggrieved.

It seems to say: "Boss, I was bullied by them, you must avenge me."

Suddenly someone in the crowd shouted: "A top-ranked second-tier armor-backed giant rat."

The person who spoke looked to be in his 60s, his face was dark and wrinkled.

His name is Fu Tianhua, he is also the patriarch of a small family, and he is also a cultivator in the late stage of Foundation Establishment. His strength is one of the best among the seven, even stronger than Puyang.

Zhang Jiang laughed and said, "So it's a big mouse."

Pu Yang frowned, he thought Zhang Jiang was too arrogant, "Don't be careless."

Zhang Jiang said suddenly: "Fellow daoists, Zhang will go up first to test the strength of this big mouse."

As soon as this remark came out, the Puyang people wanted to stop it. They thought it was better to solve it quickly, so as not to delay the picking of stone mushrooms.

However, Ling Youdao suddenly said: "Then please trouble Zhang Daoyou."

Immediately said: "Don't worry, Zhang Daoyou, you just go, Ling will sweep the formation for you, and I will guarantee that you will be safe."

Hearing this, the few people who wanted to stop it couldn't say anything more.

Hearing this, Zhang Jiang became more confident.

Seeing that he walked out in big strides, his suppressed momentum rose steadily, and he reached the late stage of foundation establishment in an instant, and he was not under the armor-backed giant rat at all.

The sudden change made the armor-backed giant rat stunned. It didn't expect such a strong person to be hidden in this group of people.

Seeing this, Zhang Jiang secretly called out: "Good opportunity."

I saw him somersaulting in front of the armor-backed giant mouse, the spirit sword in his hand was shining brightly, and he slashed towards the armor-backed giant mouse.

The armor-backed giant mouse also reacted at that moment, and waved its sharp claws that were one foot long, blocking Zhang Jiang's spirit sword back.

Zhang Jiang was not in a hurry, and repeatedly swung the spirit sword in his hand, colliding with the sharp claws.

All of a sudden, there was the sound of steel knocking in front of him.

From the rear, everyone watched the battle.

Ling Youdao also had his own considerations in agreeing to let Zhang Jiang carry the giant rat on his armor alone.

First of all, he wanted to know the strength of the people in the team.

And besides what he knew about the Yan brothers and sisters and his own family, he didn't know the fighting strength of the other seven.

The strength of the armor-backed giant rat is definitely not enough for a fake pill like Ling Youdao, and it can be easily killed.

But not any battle needs to be fought by a fake alchemy monk like Ling Youdao, otherwise what are the other seven people doing?
As the saying goes, soldiers against soldiers, generals against generals.

Why did Ling Youdao not attack the weak monsters?
Because they need to retain their strength to deal with those stronger monsters.

Yan Hui, Mu Yanran, and Ling Youxian understood what Ling Youdao meant, so they didn't say anything.

Of course, they also want to see how strong these people are.

Although several people disagreed with Zhang Jiang's participation in the battle before, but at this moment, they were watching the battle seriously.

They nodded, shook their heads, and sometimes said a few words, probably discussing Zhang Jiang's battle with the armor-backed giant rat.

"Husband, what do you think of the strength of fellow daoist in this chapter?"

Hearing this, Ling Youdao said: "This chapter is worthy of being a casual cultivator, with full combat experience."

Immediately said: "His cultivation level is indeed not as good as the armor-backed giant rat, but with his rich combat experience, he fought against the armor-backed giant rat with great vigor."

Mu Yanran and the others nodded, agreeing with Ling Youdao's words.

On the other side, the little squirrel watched the battle nervously, its small body trembling slightly.

To be honest, Zhang Jiang's sudden outburst just now really startled the little squirrel.

But because of the existence of the armor-backed giant rat, it has not yet escaped.

Everyone watched the battle between Zhang Jiang and the armor-backed giant rat like this. Time passed, and it didn't take long for the battle to enter a fierce stage.

At this time, both the armor-backed giant rat and Zhang Jiang suffered serious injuries.

Seeing this, Mu Yanran said: "Husband, if I take action and finish off that monster, it will take too long and it will affect the picking of stone mushrooms."

Hearing this, Ling Youdao nodded and said, "You stay here, I will take action."

After all, Ling Youdao sacrificed the Yin-Yang Xuanguang Sword, and somersaulted to a man and a demon.

The white Kanli True Flame instantly covered the Yin-Yang Xuanguang Sword, and he swung the Yin-Yang Xuanguang Sword towards the head of the armor-backed giant rat.

It was too late to say, but it was fast at that time, the whole process was only one breath.

The armor-backed giant rat was still fighting Zhang Jiang to the death, so it didn't expect Ling Youdao to make a move.

Caught off guard, his neck was cut off by the Yin-Yang Xuanguang Sword.

And Zhang Jiang also took the opportunity to stab the armor-backed giant rat into the chest with a sword. He held the sword in his hand tightly and took advantage of the situation to stir it.

Suddenly, blood spattered!
