Cultivation Begins From The Desert

Qingping Mountain Oasis.

Ever since the old patriarch Zhou Minghan adopted Zhou Yang's strategy and started to implement it, in order to prevent the third-tier [Poisonous Fire Scorpion King] from taking revenge, the Zhou family's dozen or so cultivators in the late stage of Qi practice retreated to this oasis first.

The spiritual veins on the Qingping Mountain Oasis are only second-tier low-grade, and the spiritual energy generated every day can only supply one late-stage qi-training monk and seven or eight early-stage and mid-stage qi-training cultivators. The spiritual energy of the spiritual veins is suddenly not enough.

There is no doubt about the importance of spiritual veins and aura to cultivators.

A cultivator, if he wants to improve his cultivation normally, he must practice on the spiritual veins corresponding to his own cultivation.

Taking the immortal cultivator during the Qi training period as an example, if he does not practice on the second-order spiritual veins such as Qingping Mountain, but only in the oasis or desert wilderness outside, his cultivation speed will be reduced tenfold. For those who practiced on the third-order mid-grade spiritual veins like Yuquan Peak, the speed of practice would be slightly increased from the normal level.

If the immortal cultivator is above the foundation establishment stage, after leaving the spiritual veins, with the thin content of the world's spiritual energy in the outside world, it is a dream to make further progress in the cultivation base.

Therefore, in the world of immortal cultivation, any immortal cultivator who still wants to improve his cultivation realm will try his best to occupy a spiritual vein for cultivation.

And according to the level of a spiritual meridian, there is also a limit to the number of auras generated every day. Once there are too many monks on the spiritual meridian and the daily consumption of spiritual energy exceeds this limit, the spiritual meridian may drop to the same level or even dry up and dissipate. .

The Qingping Mountain Spirit Vein was cultivated by the family with a huge amount of spirit stones. Of course, the monks of the Zhou family would not do such stupid things as drinking poison to quench their thirst.

So after everyone's deliberation, it was unanimously decided to give the spiritual veins to Zhou Yang, the Zhou family's hope to practice in the future. The rest of the people, including his parents, retreated to the oasis outside the mountain and refined the spiritual energy in the spiritual stones by themselves. Come to practice.

The spiritual stone is the spiritual object formed by the high concentration of the spiritual energy of the heaven and the earth. The total amount of spiritual energy contained in a low-grade spiritual stone is comparable to the spiritual energy that a foundation-building cultivator needs to breathe out in one day. It is used by monks to practice for ten days.

Therefore, many low-level scattered cultivators who cannot occupy the spiritual pulse practice, in order to improve their own cultivation, can only absorb the spiritual energy in the spiritual stone every day to practice.

Doing this naturally consumes a lot of spirit stones, and few loose cultivators are rich enough to use this method to improve their cultivation all the year round.

The reason why low-level loose cultivators are lower than the sect and family cultivators of the same age, and their pockets are poor, is actually the biggest reason.

The cultivators of the Zhou family in the late stage of Qi training are not too bad. The short-term refining of spiritual stones is only a trivial matter for them, but no one will have any opinion on this.

Zhou Yang also knows how many responsibilities he is carrying now, and he silently accepts the kindness of his elders, without any pretentious excuses.

On the other side, after Zhou Yang and others left, the old patriarch Zhou Minghan flew over the sandy **** and set a fire.

There is no need to slaughter chickens, just burn some ordinary desert plants. Zhou Minghan doesn't need to waste his mana to release the True Fire of Foundation Establishment. He only needs to release a simple second-level high-level spell "Fire Sea" plus a small second-level low-level spell. With the "Gale Wind Technique", a huge fire burst into the sky up and down the sandy slope.

Crackling!

The fire spread everywhere, and some desert animals hiding on the sandy slopes were instantly ignited with their fur, making a bean-like explosion and the smell of meat.

All of a sudden, all kinds of beast roars, snake hisses, and bird calls sounded together, and the sound was extremely miserable and full of despair.

Zhou Minghan stood at a height of hundreds of meters and looked down. There were desert animals running wild with flames everywhere. At this time, the thick fur of these animals, which was used to resist the cold night and the high temperature of the desert, was actually a A life-threatening spell.

Except for a few animals such as gerbils and sand foxes that burrow very fast, they dig holes in the thick yellow sand in time and rely on the sand to extinguish the flames on their bodies. Seventy or eighty percent of the desert animals are turned into coke in the raging flames.

Even those poisonous fire scorpions hiding in the sand were burned to death by the sky-high fire.

This sudden change on the sandy **** quickly alerted the third-order monster [Poisonous Fire Scorpion King] who was cultivating in the cave deep beneath the sandy slope.

After the third-order monster heard the "hissing" screams of its fellow clan, it rushed out of the cave where it was hiding. The raging fire on the sandy **** was fundamental to its powerful monster. There is no threat.

Hissing!

As soon as the dark red giant scorpion as big as a calf appeared, it danced a pair of huge scorpion pincers and screamed angrily at Zhou Minghan in the sky. The monster felt a great threat.

However, Zhou Minghan was too lazy to care about it, he just released a shining third-order flying sword and harvested those low-level poisonous fire scorpions in front of it.

This provocative behavior greatly angered the [Poisonous Fire Scorpion King]. I saw it slammed the ground with its double pincers, and the entire sandy **** was shaken, and a huge sandstorm was instantly set off.

The flying yellow sand in the sky not only blocked Zhou Minghan's sight in the sky, but also quickly extinguished most of the spreading fire.

Just like the difference between the foundation building period and the Qi training period, the strength gap between the third-order monsters and the second-order monsters is also very different.

Every move of the third-order monsters can collapse the mountains and the ground, causing a small-scale natural disaster. If there is no immortal cultivator of the same level to fight against it, a third-order monster can destroy a small oasis like the Qingping Mountain oasis.

At this time, seeing the [Poison Fire Scorpion King] angrily shot, Zhou Minghan didn't fear the opponent, but he didn't rashly fight with him. Instead, he quickly retracted his flying sword and directly Yujian withdrew from the battlefield.

Unlike immortal cultivators, monsters can learn to fly with the sword as long as they reach the foundation-building stage. Except for bird monsters and a few monsters with special supernatural powers, most land monsters and water monsters cannot fly at the fourth level. Master the ability to fly.

Therefore, when the immortal cultivators in the foundation-building stage are facing the third-order land monsters like the [Poison Fire Scorpion King], as long as they don't fight in the opponent's underground lair, they can easily take the initiative in the battlefield.

Of course, the reverse is also true. Although the [Poisonous Fire Scorpion King] cannot fly, if it wants to burrow into the ground and leave, it will be difficult for immortal cultivators in the foundation-building stage to keep it on the ground unless they set up a formation to block it.

On the sandy slope, [Poisonous Fire Scorpion King] found that Zhou Minghan had left, and only thought that the other party was frightened by the power he showed. , and stretched its claws to a nearby first-order poisonous fire scorpion that was half-burned to death.

This poor poisonous fire scorpion managed to escape from the fire with great difficulty, and before he had time to rejoice, he was eaten as a dinner by his "king".

After eating a wounded clan, [Poison Fire Scorpion King] glanced at the other ordinary poisonous fire scorpions who were shivering with fierce light in his eyes, and then returned to the underground cave to sleep after giving out a few orders with a neigh.

After the [Poisonous Fire Scorpion King] left, the entire Poisonous Fire Scorpion group immediately ushered in a carnival. Those desert animals that were burned to death by Zhou Minghan were the main course of this carnival, including even those who died. The dead poisonous fire scorpion corpse.

All the poisonous fire scorpions, including the [Poisonous Fire Scorpion King], did not realize how much harm the destruction of the desert vegetation around the sandy slopes would bring to their own race~www.readwn.com~ in these monster beasts In his eyes, today's battle is no different from when the scorpion swarm was attacked by powerful monsters before. Although the intruders killed some members of the scorpion swarm, they were still driven away by their powerful "king", and they died. Those of the same clan, as long as the scorpion group is still there, new members will soon be born to join.

It wasn't until half a month later that the [Poison Fire Scorpion King] woke up from his deep sleep and found that the number of scorpions had greatly decreased, and they were killing each other because of lack of food, that it realized the viciousness of that fire.

It's just that the evil consequences have already appeared at this time. Although the [Poison Fire Scorpion King] is strong, it is impossible to conjure a large amount of food out of thin air to save the scorpion swarm.

As a last resort, the [Poison Fire Scorpion King] can only take the initiative to clean up the old, weak, sick, and weak in the scorpion group for the strong to eat, and then drive all the surviving poisonous fire scorpions out of the underground cave and let them go on their own. Foraging and hunting in the depths of the desert.

However, the [Poisonous Fire Scorpion King] did not expect that the old patriarch Zhou Minghan, who had just driven the scorpion out of the underground cave, had been monitoring the situation on Shatupo, and immediately seized the opportunity to kill the poisonous fire scorpions who had left the nest. Dozens of them, and before it heard the distress signal, Yu Jian flew away from the scene.

After this lesson, the [Poison Fire Scorpion King] still didn't understand that he and the scorpion group were being targeted. It was also a wise monster, and immediately changed the order so that the scorpion group could not move on the ground when it left the nest to hunt. Then he also secretly followed behind the scorpion swarms that left the nest to hunt for an opportunity to attack.

The Poison Fire Scorpion was digging a hole under the sand to move. It was not easy for Zhou Minghan to find it, and the sneak attack of the Poison Fire Scorpion King made him almost overturn the car.

After trying to attack a few times, Zhou Minghan, who could no longer take advantage, finally turned around and returned to the Qingping Mountain Oasis.
