Can Scientific Cultivators Penetrate into the Second Dimension

There is still a residual temperature. If nothing else, there are other people in the woods besides himself.This is interesting, the government of Yunguo has been expressly prohibited from interfering in matters here, and the nearby villager Orion has already been warned, so who would come here on purpose under such circumstances?

Thinking of this, Lin Xiu's actions became more and more cautious. As the traces of activities discovered increased, soon there were conversations coming from a distance.

"Master, it's been almost three days, is that civet really still here?"

"How many times have I said that it is not called a civet, but a 'cunning cat'."

"Oh, is that 'cunning cat' still here?"

"Aren't you still looking for a teacher?"

Following the source of the sound, Lin Xiu slowed down and touched it little by little, while Ying followed step by step.

Soon, two figures, one old and one young, were glimpsed through the woods. The old man seemed to be comparable to Qian Lao in terms of age and appearance. It's not the same.

At the first level of qi training, it was not long before the qi was introduced into the body, and the breath was still fluctuating. There was almost no threat to Lin Xiu. In comparison, the old man with white beard and hair was a little dangerous.

Based on the comparison of the atmosphere of the same sect that Lin Xiu has come into contact with in the sect, it should be between the fifth level of Qi training and the sixth level of Qi training. Not to mention the magic means mastered, this old man is undoubtedly better than Lin Xiu in terms of realm alone of.

Lin Xiu lowered his breath and listened carefully to the conversation between the two.

"Master, is this civet really that valuable? I've been looking for it for so long, or forget it?"

"How many times have I called it a cunning cat... Forget it, as a teacher, I will talk to you carefully, so as not to be ashamed when I go out in the future. Speaking of this cunning cat, it is not an exaggeration to be covered with treasures. The cat's eyes can be trained Ye Mingshi, flesh and blood can be used as nourishment, claws and teeth can be practiced as utensils, tail hair can be made into talisman pens, not to mention that fur... tsk tsk, that is a treasure that even foundation-building monks would covet."

"Foundation-building cultivator?!"

The young monk was taken aback: "Master, then we have to run away earlier, what if a senior from the Foundation Establishment Period suddenly comes?"

"Ahem, do you understand grooming? In short, this cunning cat is bound to become a teacher."

"Oh."

Listening to the conversation between the two, Lin Xiu's expression became a little strange.

According to the old monk, the cunning cat should be an extremely precious spirit beast, but in this case, why did the sect randomly throw the relevant tasks on the foreign disciples, and only asked to bring back the fur?

At this moment, a scolding voice suddenly came from the front: "Who is sneaking around!"

Pausing in his steps, he glanced at the branch broken by Ying's step, and Lin Xiu's spiritual power urged him on.

……

Following the sound of footsteps, a blond girl in a strange costume appeared in front of the master and apprentice.

Unlike the apprentice who was full of astonishment, the master had a dignified face, just because he couldn't capture the aura of the monk in front of him at all.

"Who are you? Why do you follow this old man sneakily?"

"..."

"If you're planning to do something wrong, if you can't say it, the old man has to—"

While talking about the old man holding the formula with one hand, just when the atmosphere was about to explode, the old man's eyes suddenly swept across the sleeve of the "girl", and his pupils shrank immediately.

"It turned out to be a disciple of He Guizong."

As if under an illusion, the tension of the last second disappeared, and the old man lowered his posture and cupped his hands and said, "Originally, this old man wanted to get rid of this monster for the benefit of the people, but since he is a disciple of He Guizong, I will hand it over to Your Excellency. "

As she spoke, ignoring the stunned expression of her apprentice, she pulled him over and left. The "girl" didn't say a word during the whole process—and couldn't speak.

After a long time, after confirming that the two people had indeed gone away, Lin Xiu controlled Ying to leave the place, and then walked in front of her.

"The deterrent power of this sect is much higher than expected."

Looking at Yingxue's white sleeves, a pattern of a small river encircling a sword blade is impressively engraved on it. This is the logo of He Guizong. The old man stopped immediately after seeing this pattern and wanted to Otherwise, if there is a real fight, Lin Xiu is really not sure.

Fortunately, the matter was resolved in an easier way. The next thing to do was to lead out the cunning cat, destroy it and get the fur.

At the same time, the outskirts of the woods.

"Master, are we really leaving like this?"

"Nonsense, what else can I do if I don't go."

"But it took us so long, even if we can't get a whole civet, a little leftover material is fine, right?"

Hearing these words, Zhong Changchun stopped in his tracks, looked back at the woods behind him, his face was cloudy for a while, and finally he let out a long sigh: "Forget it, the sect is powerful, so it's just for her, it's not worth it for a cunning cat." .”

Seeing the extremely regretful look on the master's face, Li Xiu opened his mouth, but chose to keep it shut.

——But the master's expression obviously didn't mean that.

……

Cunning cats are suspicious, and like to eat carrion, and spirit mice are the best.

Taking out the rotten meat of spirit rats prepared in advance from the Qiankun bag and putting them on the open space, Lin Xiu hid aside and held his breath waiting for the target to appear.

About half an hour later, there was a rustling sound, and as the vegetation swayed, a creature that looked like a cat, a leopard, and the size of an earthen dog appeared in the field of vision, pounced on the carrion in the open space with extreme agility, and swallowed it in one gulp. Turning around and fleeing without looking back, Lin Xiu didn't take any action as if he was frightened during the whole process.

After a while, Lin Xiu, who was counting the time, got up and led Ying to move in the direction where the cunning cat was fleeing.

After walking less than two hundred feet away, I saw the cunning cat lying on the ground and twitching continuously.

Seeing this, Lin Xiu felt more and more emotional.The so-called sect's background, although it has no substance, it is playing a role all the time.

In the eyes of Orion, a cunning cat is a dangerous prey that can easily kill tigers and black bears. In the eyes of officials, it is a rare creature that can attract the attention of immortals. In the eyes of Sanxiu, it is a moving treasure. What I saw was only the monster itself, other than its habits, abilities, preferences, weaknesses and so on.

In He Guizong's eyes, it was just a cunning cat, a low-level monster that didn't even have the qualifications to pay attention to it. Maybe even getting the cunning cat's fur was just to train his disciples.

In any case, Lin Xiu's first Zongmen mission was successfully completed, except for the episode of Longmen Gorge on the way, it was not too smooth.

After peeling off the cunning cat's fur, he hesitated for a while looking at the remaining materials, and finally started to collect them.

If those two people followed up just now, Lin Xiu would not mind giving these leftovers to each other, but if he hadn't followed up, these resources can't just be discarded like this. He just didn't know that these precious materials in their mouths were taken to the sect. What can be exchanged for...

17. Back to the mountain

It was almost the same as expected. It took Lin Xiu a little more than a month to complete the mission and the time spent on the way back and forth.

After returning to He Guizong's mountain gate, Lin Xiu handed over the cunning cat's fur to the disciple on duty in the Foreign Affairs Hall. The reward he got was ten spirit stones and nearly two months of training time.However, when Lin Xiu tried to sell the leftovers of the cunning cat to the senior sister of the Foreign Affairs Hall, what he got was an embarrassed but polite smile: "If the younger brother is really short of spirit stones, I recommend completing more tasks."

The implication is self-evident.

Later, Lin Xiu still went to the Alchemy Pavilion and the Artifact Refining Pavilion with some reluctance, repeating the selling action based on the idea that the flesh and blood of a cunning cat can be used for alchemy, and the minions and eyes can be used for refining weapons, but what he got was The senior brother looked disgusted.

"Junior brother, not everything can be used for alchemy/artifact refining. The cunning cat is just a low-level monster. Even if there is spiritual power in the body, how much spiritual power can it have? If it is really used for alchemy/artifact refining, it is estimated that the value of auxiliary materials will be consumed Dozens of times more than the main ingredients, wouldn't it be better to use these auxiliary ingredients to refine higher-quality pills/magic tools?"

Lin Xiu was speechless.

"Co-authoring these things will also be useful for casual cultivators."

Back in the D-level stove that he had leased for two months, Lin Xiu was a little bit troubled by the pile of corner materials. Although he had a Qiankun bag for storage, he had worked hard for nearly half a month to collect all the materials. It is still inevitable that the aura of the soul will be depleted, and with the problem of "shelf life", if there is no way to dispose of these resources, it is estimated that they will be thrown away in vain after the retreat.

"If only there was a way to recycle waste..."

Talking to himself, his gaze inadvertently swept across the blond girl standing aside.

After the Longmen Gorge and his party, Lin Xiu would summon Ying whenever there was no one else around, and he didn't consume much aura in non-combat situations, so he could respond immediately if any emergencies occurred. Besides... simple cultivation is so boring, wouldn't it be nice to have one more scumbag younger sister who is eye-catching?

However, this time it inspired Lin Xiu.

"I can't use it myself, but it doesn't mean that other 'people' can't use it."

As soon as he thought of it, Lin Xiu immediately took out the tools from the Qiankun bag, and began to find usable parts from these materials, and carried out a new round of strengthening Ying. The blonde girl still maintained that numb indifference throughout the process, letting everyone perform as.

Cultivation does not know the years.

In the blink of an eye, another month passed.

In the D-level stove, Lin Xiu let go of the sword hilt in front of him, feeling the spiritual power overflowing in his body, and reckoned that he should be able to advance to the fifth level of Qi training smoothly in the next month.

In addition to improving the realm, the strengthening of Ying has also achieved good results.

Stimulating the spiritual power in his body, he pointed forward: "Ying, use the Wind Vortex Sword."

The blond girl raised her left hand expressionlessly, and stretched her five fingers forward. Accompanied by the sound of blasting wind, a large number of fine wind blades swept out from her palm, leaving shallow white cut marks on the ground and wall.

Seeing this, Lin Xiu nodded in satisfaction.

After crushing the cunning cat's sharp claws and mixing them into the talisman on Ying's left hand, the release speed of the Wind Vortex Sword increased by [-]%, its power increased by [-]%, and its range increased by a full [-]%. In the case of Longmen Gorge, all the robbers on the platform can be wiped out with a single blow of the "Wind Vortex Sword".

Claws are not the only materials that come from the cunning cat.

Standing in front of Ying, Lin Xiu looked into the girl's eyes.

Different from the lifeless appearance before, although he still couldn't express any emotions, he already possessed some unique feeling of life.

Of course, Lin Xiu would not be so stupid as to directly transplant the eyes of the cunning cat into Ying's body. In that case, it would be difficult just psychologically. The two eyeballs were refined into opals, then ground up and attached to Ying's eyes with mana.

As for the effect... Cough, probably to make Ying look more like a normal person?

In short, further strengthening needs to be reserved for Lin Xiu's realm to rise to a higher level in the future, and it is enough to lay a good platform for now.

After observing Ying's situation, Lin Xiu turned his attention back to himself: "I still lack some means of output."

This is what Lin Xiu discovered during the mission of the sect. The "Hidden Sword Art" that can only be stored but cannot be put away is directly ignored. Lin Xiu's only attack method is the "Ying" that consumes a lot of resources to pile up. And the latter did not disappoint him despite being given high hopes by Lin Xiu. It can be said that Ying played nearly 80% of the role in this sect mission, and Lin Xiu took care of the remaining 20%.

But this also exposed a problem.Ying is strong, that's right, the problem is that I am a weaker "summoner". When Ying needs to go forward to fight, I have almost no other means to rely on except a few talismans for escape. Lin Xiu didn't have to wait and see from behind when he was in the gorge, but joined the battle together, and it was the same when he was in Luohe Village.

Generally speaking, Lin Xiu does not lack the means of self-protection, but he lacks effective output methods. Of the two skills he has mastered, "Hidden Sword Jue" can only be used to improve the realm of spiritual power, and "Wooden Puppet Art" The "wooden puppet" in the game played a great role, but the remaining two spells - such as the ivy technique and the vine technique - are good for dealing with ordinary people. Once they hit other cultivators, they will look down on them. It is almost impossible to be recruited only if you have some contact with these two spells.

However, Lin Xiu was not unprepared for this.

Taking out a brand-new spirit stone from the Qiankun bag, Lin Xiu thought back to the thoughts that came to him from time to time during this month's practice, and then exchanged a spirit stone in front of him for the "Basic Talisman Encyclopedia" ( Qi training version)" opened, took out the carving knife made of cunning cat's teeth, and began to carefully carve on this spirit stone.

Time passed in the eyes of Cultivation and Control (Shen Zhi), and in the blink of an eye, it was half a month. Two days before the second sect mission was issued, Lin Xiu got stuck in time to end this retreat.

Pushing open the stone door of the ground stove, he couldn't help but take a deep breath of the oncoming clean air, and the remaining heat on his body dissipated a lot at once.

That is to say, in cultivating immortals, an ordinary person would probably die of dehydration in a few days next to a ground stove for a long time. Unlike Lin Xiu, it took as fast as two months, and he was facing a furnace with a temperature of more than [-] yuan day and night. The stove didn't even darken his skin color, and after a day's rest, he was a lively Qi Refining disciple.

While moving his body that was a little jerky due to lack of exercise for a long time, Lin Xiu summed up what he had gained from this retreat.

18. The second foreign mission

First of all, stepping into the fifth level of Qi training without any suspense in terms of cultivation, becoming a middle-level disciple who can be regarded as the backbone even in the middle stage of Qi training. This brings two news, one good and one bad. The good news is " Hidden Sword Jue's kung fu is really effective in improving the realm. According to the disciples of the same period that Lin Xiu knows, those disciples who are above the middle school may not be able to follow him so fast, that is, those who have reached the "upper" level. To be able to catch up with this average line.

If this progress continues, Lin Xiu has no small confidence that he will be able to step into the sixth level of Qi training within two years, and try to challenge the late stage of Qi training.

You must know that the disciples in the late stage of Qi training not only greatly increase the power of releasing various spells, but most importantly, they are able to control the magic weapon for short-term flight, which is one of the greatest visions of human nature bound by gravity , Lin Xiu couldn't help feeling anticipation.

The bad news is that the problem of insufficient cultivation resources has reappeared.
