Data cultivation, I observe immortality in the five elements

Chapter 474: Three ways to join the sect, habits of creatures in the sea, and ways to earn contribution points
"Don't compare yourselves with others, don't feel downcast, let alone feel defeated!"

"I am a disciple of the Five Elements Immortal Sect. Each of them has an invincible appearance. They are not from the same world as you, so naturally you don't need to take it to heart."

"Having such a strong person stay here makes you feel more secure." An older man comforted him.

They are here to hunt monsters and earn spiritual crystals, and they belong to the same group. Some of them should be warned in advance before coming.

Avoid hunting sea beasts while some fierce species appear and want to prove their strength.

In that case, the entire demon hunting team would be implicated.

After all, the closer you get to the open sea, the more dangerous it is.

This is not the inland sea of ​​Ten Thousand Stars Sea, it is very safe.

In this kind of place, vendettas, robberies, internal fights, etc., all kinds of things happen in endlessly.

Therefore, no one is sure what kind of situation they will encounter as soon as they leave this island.

But even so, the monks attracted by the outer sea are as numerous as the crucian carp crossing the river.

Because practice requires a lot of resources, the tasks provided in the inland sea area have extremely limited returns.

Although safe, it is obviously not suitable for people like them.

On the contrary, there is the outer sea area, which is full of dangers. There are many sea creatures and monsters, and it is easy to die if you are not careful.

High risk also means high reward.

There are many sea beasts in this sea area, which also means that it is relatively easy to earn spiritual crystals.

This is why they insist on coming here even if they teleport multiple times and spend a lot of money.

Within the territory of Ten Thousand Stars Sea, there is only one sect, and that is the Five Elements Immortal Sect.

Apart from this, there is no other sect.

But in this huge sea area, the number of islands alone is countless, and the number of mortals is as numerous as quicksand in the river, uncountable.

The way the Five Elements Sect controls this sea area is actually very simple. Those with outstanding qualifications can join the sect.

Those who have no qualifications but have perseverance can enter the Immortal Ladder.

As long as you have the perseverance to seek the truth and can withstand those mental pressures, you can join the Five Elements Sect.

If you are lucky, you can go to the cliff of Youxu!

This test method is very simple, just like asking a mortal to jump from a cliff thousands of feet high. If he does not die, he can worship the Immortal Sect.

With this assessment method, except for a few lucky people, everyone who tried to pass the assessment with a sense of luck would die.

This is also the most frightening one, either success or death!

These are the three obvious ways to join the Five Elements Sect.

But the total population of the Ten Thousand Stars Sea Islands is simply too large to be counted.

An island is a small city, and some islands are as big as a country.

The number of its islands is too numerous to count. It is conceivable that there are many people living on this Ten Thousand Stars Sea Islands.

This is also the reason why although the Five Elements Sect has such a great reputation, many monks who have been practicing on the island for generations rarely see the disciples of the Five Elements Sect.

It's just because the Sea of ​​Ten Thousand Stars is so huge, it's almost endless.

Basically, every Five Elements Sect disciple who is the owner of an island will have a group of people who will obey his orders and use the island to earn contribution points to help him practice.

The monks living in this sea area will make this island their home, hunting sea beasts everywhere to obtain resources for practice.

In the Sea of ​​Ten Thousand Stars, if you want to be the owner of an island, unless you have a disciple of the Five Elements Sect on your name, once those islands are besieged by the Sea Clan, you will have to find a way on your own.

There will be no support from the Five Elements Sect at all.

This represents an orthodoxy.

Therefore, the qualifications of Five Elements Sect members are not only a reflection of strength, but also a symbol of status.

If it weren't for the fact that this was an open sea area and the sea clan invaded frequently, it would be impossible for everyone to see such a shocking scene.

It is rare to see a disciple of the Five Elements Sect come out to hunt sea beasts in person.

There was a strange look in Luo Yan's eyes. Since he had arrived at the outer sea and there was such a powerful person sitting in charge, he would use this South Bay Bird Island as a base to start implementing his plan.

Thinking of this, he went to find the only shop on the island and bought a jade plaque there.

This is equivalent to a qualification, a qualification protected by this island.

After all, this kind of island is owned by an owner. If you want to come here to hunt sea beasts, you must pay tolls to the owner of this island.

Otherwise, once caught, the other party can directly confiscate your harvest and drive you out of the sea.

Even though they are from the same sect, you don’t have to worry about this.

But when there are some rules that should be followed, try to follow them.

"Fellow Taoists, the identity jade token of Nanwan Bird Island has been purchased. Let's get ready to take action now."

"But this is the open sea after all, and the sea tribe is extremely ferocious. To be cautious, let's not leave this island too far."

Next to them, several monks in the Golden Core Realm spoke up, with a fierce aura on their bodies.

The monks who dare to come to the outer sea to hunt sea beasts are all those who lick blood with their swords, and the aura on their bodies will naturally appear more ferocious.

Even Luo Yan was frightened by those murderous intentions that seemed to materialize.

Only when enough sea monsters are hunted can such a strong bloody smell be formed.

Luo Yan looked at the group of monks who went out to sea to hunt monsters together, with a strange look in his eyes. He was not in a hurry to go to sea, but rented another cave on the island.

In the cave, he left another spiritual puppet body behind.

This is to prevent yourself from encountering unexpected events in the sea and having no place to escape.

With this spiritual puppet as a back-up, he can concentrate on implementing his plan.

After doing this, Luo Yan also flew out of the island.

He found an uninhabited location and walked along the sea to escape the light, but he didn't escape too far.

Almost far away from the ten-mile sea area of ​​​​this island, he directly activated the water runes on his body, and then escaped into the sea.

'confused'

When flying at low altitude and looking down, the color of the entire sea area is azure.

After entering the water, the water on the surface of the sea is slightly turbid, but the further down you go, the clearer the water becomes.

Luo Yan's various breath gathering, concealment, and water runes were quietly activated, making it easier for him to move underwater.

Just like a swimming fish, the body is invisible, the movement is waveless, and the whole process is silent.

He escaped all the way to the bottom of the sea, and his whole body was wrapped in light blue light, just like a mass of sea water, without any breath leaking.

'goo'

A slightly dull collision sound struck, sending out shocking waves.

Luo Yan followed his gaze and saw two huge black figures fighting fiercely in front of him, creating boundless waves.

The entire world in the sea was muddied, and densely packed tiny bubbles kept rising up from under the water.

The scene is very spectacular.

Luo Yan felt the constant turbulence of the underwater ocean currents. Under the blessing of the law of water, he was not affected at all.

He glanced back and forth and found that the size of these two big guys seemed to be fish spirits that had given birth to self-awareness.

The two black shadows were constantly colliding, and the strong bloom caused the waves in this area to churn.

Luo Yan could see clearly that these were two fish demons that had not yet transformed, but had developed spiritual intelligence. They were almost ten feet long, like two hills colliding.

Right in front of them, there was a hazy mass of flesh and blood essence, exuding majestic pressure.

It is very similar to the flesh and blood tissue of the dozen or so fourth-order unicorn sharks just now, otherwise it would not be so attractive.

Eventually, the other fish spirit was driven away.

This unusually majestic mass of flesh and blood essence was also swallowed up by the fish spirit.

Then, Luo Yan could clearly feel that the aura of the victorious fish spirit had become stronger.

This seems to be the transformation path of the demon clan or sea beast.

As long as you can eat it, you can make the blood in your body thicker and break through the current realm.

Unlike human monks who need to practice for a long time to break through their current realm, the more these fish spirits kill other monsters and devour more flesh and blood, the stronger they become.

As long as they have enough flesh and blood, they can grow to their most powerful state in a short period of time.

Of course, this kind of realm breakthrough is not unlimited.

Some ordinary fish spirits can generally only grow to the third or fourth level, and then they will be restrained by their own blood.

Going forward, it will be difficult to break through the current realm.

This is also a common characteristic of most monsters. Spirits and monsters basically have their own innate limitations.

Unless you have great fortune and can change your destiny and purify your original bloodline to a higher level, you will be limited for your whole life.

Therefore, the more powerful the demon clan is, the smaller its number will be. This is determined by bloodline genes.

"The realm of these two fish spirits is not high. They seem to be at the peak of the second level. If I use the law of water, I should be able to completely keep them. It will not be very difficult."

"But these monsters are huge in size and have tenacious vitality. It would be difficult to hunt them down silently."

Invisible ripples appeared on Luo Yan's body, and his body turned transparent, completely integrating with the surrounding sea water.

Faintly, only a human-shaped shadow could be seen.

He was constantly comparing and testing the life strength of these sea monsters.

"This second-level fish monster is very common. The meat on its body has a fishy smell and is not easy to digest. Even those barbarians who are refining their bodies don't like to eat it."

"The only purpose is to cut it into pieces and feed it to the spirit fish."

"Their actual value is not high. They can only be sold for one or two hundred yuan of low-grade spiritual crystals."

"If you exchange it for contribution points, you may only have about twenty contribution points."

Luo Yan hid under the sea, his eyes were indifferent, and when he glanced at these sea monsters, he did not have murderous intent. Because the purpose of his trip was observation.

The concentration of spiritual energy in the true spiritual world is very high, so the proportion of alien creatures born with spiritual intelligence will become very high.

Except for the scales on the second-level sea monster, which can be peeled off and made into magical weapons, the other parts of it are actually not of much value.

There is "filth" in the monster body of the spirit, with deep blood filth. Most monks will not choose to refine these low-level sea monster flesh and blood.

Because it doesn’t make sense at all.

The spiritual energy particles activated by this method also need to be removed from blood and dirt, and I am afraid that they are not as much spiritual energy as the spiritual energy that comes from meditating.

Luo Yan continued to dive deeper and saw more than a dozen sea monsters, including a crab spirit. When he waved his huge pincers forward, the dozens of feet of water in front of him were penetrated. It looked very strange. Fierce and very difficult to mess with.

He calculated that if he hunted and killed the dozens of fish spirits and crab monsters he encountered, he could at least get thousands of low-grade spiritual crystals on the island.

But the problem is that these guys are very large. If they are killed directly, a large amount of blood will inevitably be scattered in the sea water.

By then, more sea creatures will be attracted to this area.

It's easy to cause big trouble if you're not careful.

In a dangerous place like the sea, if the delay is too long, no one can guarantee that something will happen.

Most monks hunt sea monsters by using this method to confine the sea area, prevent the bloody air from flowing out, and then hunt down all the spirits in this area.

Luo Yan has no such plan, because his spiritual puppet body is suppressed by the laws of the great road, and the strength he can exert is limited.

Not to mention that if he wanted to kill these fish spirits and crab monsters, he would definitely be fighting for a long time, but he never thought about earning enough contribution points by hunting sea beasts.

Luo Yan has been sneaking into the deep sea for a long time, at least for more than ten miles. The water here is bottomless and there is basically no light.

There was darkness everywhere.

Relying on the weak water flow and spiritual induction, Luo Yan could roughly sense that the spirits living in this water area had increased in size and became extremely violent.

Any slight noise will alert the sea monsters miles away.

Because the ocean currents in deep water areas are very slow, and the underwater undercurrents are far less powerful than those in the upper waters, a slight fluctuation will be transmitted a long distance.

Luo Yan even encountered a third-level fish demon, which was hunting other sea monsters. He opened his mouth and swallowed the target in the sea water in front of him. The scene was very bloody.

Arriving at this sea area, Luo Yan stopped thinking about exploring further.

Because the third-level sea monsters are already very powerful, and he cannot compete with them now.

Not to mention that the fourth-level sea monster gave birth to a separate spirit, and its spiritual waves can monitor a certain area at all times.

With his current breath-condensing skills, it would be difficult to avoid the perception of those powerful creatures.

"Is this the only area we can go to?"

"If we only deal with some low-level sea beasts, we may be able to start implementing the plan."

A flash of thought flashed through Luo Yan's mind, and after a moment, he gave up the idea.

Although the value of these sea creatures is generally not very high, a sea monster corpse cannot be exchanged for many spiritual crystals.

But the spiritual crystals he wanted to earn were not from these sea monsters, but from those monster hunting monks.

Because only in this way can we gather enough contribution points as quickly as possible.

Luo Yan has not forgotten that just the thousand units of water psychic particles in his body, the amount of weak water essence that he wants to refine is an astronomical figure.

Not to mention that he now also practices the secret method of wood attributes, which also requires a lot of refining of wood spirits.

If he only relied on hunting low-level sea beasts, how long would it take for Luo Yan to collect the contribution points that could be exchanged for the essence of the Five Elements?

Not to mention that as time goes by, his cultivation will gradually increase, and the essence of the Five Elements that will be needed will probably be more.

Moreover, innate moire patterns, five-system magical powers, various materials, etc. all require a large amount of contribution points to be redeemed.

Therefore, Luo Yan must take a long-term view.

"Zero, switch to exploration mode and mark the types of creatures in this sea area."

"Task created. Retrieval starting"

"Please get close to those creatures and touch them with your hands," the cold mechanical voice of the chip came.

Luo Yan left this deep water area and returned to the waters where the first and second level sea spirits were gathered.

The deeper sea area is currently not a place where his spiritual puppet body can set foot.

That’s all we can do for now.

After returning to the shallow water area, Luo Yan began his own plan to test the ecological environment of this sea area.

He shot out a series of spiritual lights and drew piles of runes, which were scattered in the sea.

Soon, these special runes lingered in the seawater in an orderly manner, forming a large field.

This is a kind of detection array, called the Sixth Palace Sumeru Formation, which can monitor all creatures that break into the array.

After arranging the magic circle, Luo Yan forcibly controlled the spirit fish wandering around him, then held it in his hand and observed it carefully.

There are strange and mysterious blue runes in his pupils, which are constantly flashing and beating, and the specific status of this spiritual fish is analyzed in real time.

Even the inside of its body can be seen clearly.

"The Lingba fish has a slender body, spindle shape, triangular jaw teeth, blue-green body surface, silvery white abdomen, and other fish flesh and blood residues and a small amount of shells in the body. It is an ordinary carnivorous spiritual fish species."

After thoroughly examining the Spirit Bay Fish, Luo Yan let it go and locked his eyes to the side.

Later, he controlled another spiritual fish and continued to collect sample data.

"The black squid has a large head, an oval shape, black spots on its body, and fleshy residue and shells in its belly. It is a common carnivorous spiritual fish species."

"The perch has small, light red eyes, flat and wide, and its outer body is gray and white in color. There are diatoms in the mouth and a small amount of plankton in the gills. It likes to live in groups. It is a herbivorous spiritual fish species with a gentle temperament."

Luo Yan kept marking these fish species, and the chip completely recorded all the information.

After staying for a few days, he had tagged all the fish in this water area.

Immediately afterwards, Luo Yan started the second step.

He focused his attention on the algae and microorganisms on the surface of the sea.

"Blue algae can generate aura through conversion of sunlight, providing a place for extremely small microorganisms to live."

"Green algae can absorb the light of the moonlight, transform it into spiritual energy, and dissolve it into water-based spiritual energy."

"Platyphyllum"

As long as it was something floating on the sea, he would find it and record it in the database.

The purpose of this is very simple, which is to understand the basic habits of these sea monsters, and then use them to refine elixirs to lure them.

In previous lives, fishing required making nests. Now, the same applies to hunting these sea monsters.

We have to find a way to gather them together.

In the next ten days, Luo Yan has been in this sea area and recorded all the spiritual creatures around him.

Shrimp, clams, fish, turtles, crabs and more.

By thoroughly classifying all the creatures in this sea area, the thoughts in Luo Yan's mind became increasingly clear.

"Zero, start simulating the growth environment and habits of these fish spirits, crab monsters, and shrimp monsters, and list them out."

"After receiving the instruction, the virtual calculation simulation begins to generate."

Listening to the voice in his head, Luo Yan began to wait.

In more than half a month, he did not hunt sea beasts because the sea area was too big.

The efficiency of hunting one by one to contribute points is very slow.

This little contribution cannot be exchanged for even a drop of Weak Water Essence, so he naturally looks down upon him.

So Luo Yan's idea is very simple, that is, start with the habitats of these sea monsters, and then start analyzing the first- and second-order sea monsters and what they eat most.

Then he used this to develop a special elixir that could automatically attract monsters.

As long as this kind of elixir can be developed, Luo Yan can just sit back and wait for those sea beasts to come to his door, instead of having to worry about running around looking for traces of those spirits.

Of course, if the bodies of some sea beasts are cut open and their blood flows into the sea water, it will also attract a large number of sea monsters.

Luo Yan's initial thoughts were also the same.

But later, he still underestimated the wisdom of these sea beasts who already had spiritual consciousness.

These spirits smell the smell of blood, but they will not rush over immediately, but will test it carefully.

Just like a sea monster called Kuixingyu, they gather together, often as many as dozens.

But it is timid by nature, and will run away immediately if there is any abnormality in the water.

Full of vigilance.

The sea monster bait Luo Yan set up could not attract these cunning spirits at all.

In other words, even if they arrive at the scene, they will not all rush over to eat. Instead, they will hide very far away and observe the movements of the water here.

Every time I eat, one or two or three take turns.

Even if there is danger, the remaining Kuixing fish monsters can escape in an instant and disappear without a trace.

And, the next time they encounter the same thing, they won't come close to it again.

There are many more Kuixing fish sea monsters like this, and almost every one of them is extremely cautious.

This is the wisdom of the spirits that gave birth to spiritual consciousness.

"Calculation simulation completed."

"The shrimp spirit has the habits of a crab monster. It loves smelly rotten things. It rarely preys on spiritual algae and aquatic spiritual plants. It likes corpses of spiritual fish the most."

"The Bay Spirit Fish Fish Monster likes to devour low-level spirit fish and hides at the bottom of the shadows in the sea. It is afraid of light."

"The clam demon likes to hide in its shell and stays consistent with the sea sand, making it difficult to detect."

By recording the habits of the spirits encountered in this sea area, Luo Yan also gained a deeper understanding of these sea creatures.

They are not brainless, but intelligent creatures!
