"Who sent the letter?" Xue Tong asked.
"Four people came from the clan superintendent Mataxinda."
"Didn't you say anything else?"
"No." Dou Tanjie shook his head.
"Okay, as long as the wolf tribe agrees, you should quickly withdraw your clansmen. I will raise the cattle and sheep promised by Ao Wu when I return and deliver them as soon as possible."
Xue Tong and Dou Tanerjin agreed on a location and tentatively planned to meet again in three months.
"Taoist Priest, what happened when you went to Jiaotu Mountain? Why was the letter sent to Qicha Valley?" Dou Tanjie asked curiously.
Xue Tong injured Matajiu, and there were more than a hundred people present. Sooner or later, this matter would spread, and there was no need to hide it from the Dou Tan family. "I almost killed Matajiu. I thought it would trigger a bigger conflict. The top management of the Wolf Department Putting things to rest is a bit beyond my expectation."
Xue Tong took out Matajiu's identity domino.
"Ah" Dou Tan's family's eyes widened, and they were speechless in surprise.
Xue Tong suddenly realized that there might be something hidden behind it. He took six acquired animal carcasses from Matajiu's storage bag and said: "These are my extra subsidies for Dou Tan's family. From now on, people will live in harmony. It depends on everyone’s efforts.”
The Dou Tan family rarely hunted a few acquired high-level monsters in a year. Dou Tan Erjin's eyes widened and he breathed out from his nostrils. Dou Tanjie said hurriedly: "How dare you do this? Mr. Xue has succeeded in matching them. It's not too late for us to be grateful." Woolen cloth."
"Don't refuse, we will have to deal with you from now on."
Xue Tong's favor is to make things easier in the future and to get more information.
…
Prince Chong's Mansion in the Imperial City.
Prince Chong, Fei Tianjian, Zhai Chengming, Kuai Yuanzhong, Miao Feng.
It took two years for Miao Feng to recover, and Fahai returned to his acquired peak. Although he was still far away from his highest point, with the help of Wangfu's healing elixir and Fei Hanhai's many magical powers, his injury continued to slowly improve.
"The behavior of the wolf tribe is so strange. Could it be that there is something hidden?" Fei Hanhai said.
"I think so too, but the content of the animal skin book has no strings attached. It seems that Aowu Kingdom can only implement the agreement."
Everyone discussed a few words, and the topic shifted to the mysterious innate warrior and the white tiger spiritual pet.
"There are only so many innate warriors in the dynasty. The ice-patterned white tiger has been raised for at least forty or fifty years. It is impossible that no one knows about such an eye-catching thing. Therefore, the official thought that the two warriors do not look like people from the Aowu Kingdom." Kuai Yuanzhong said. .
"Unless the traitor is eliminated, the agreement with the Wolf Division will always be unscrupulous." Fei Tianjian said.
"I suggest you offer a reward to collect information and track down Linghu." Xue Tong said.
"Okay, let's release the news gradually. Xue Dutong will follow me to the palace tomorrow." Prince Chong said.
…
The next day, in the court hall, Prince Chong told Xue Tong about the trip to the Wolf Tribe. The Taishi Taiwei asked Xue Tong some details and ordered him to return to the palace first.
Until the moment he entered the Xi Garden, Xue Tong's heart was still beating fast. He was a child from the mountains and wild fields, but he unexpectedly saw the king of a country and the powerful relatives of the emperor in the Jinluan Palace.
He couldn't help but miss his homeland more and more, and wanted to go back to Jiayuan Kingdom and Yunxiao Sect to visit.
The imperial court agreed that the Forbidden Army General Liao Shixiong and Prince Chongfu Kuai Yuanzhong would lead two hundred cavalry and drive five thousand cattle and sheep to the agreed place.
As for border trade towns, construction is on hold.
"It's seven hundred miles across the border and we'll arrive in five days. I'll ask Manager Zhai to accompany me. I'll take care of Xue Dutong. You can rest assured and cultivate yourself." Fei Hanhai said.
"Your Majesty, Xue Tong wants to go to Jiayuan."
Fei Hanhai smiled slightly, "I know that after you returned to Chongguang, you wanted to visit your hometown again and meet your old friends from the Yunxiao Sect, but it is not appropriate in the near future."
"There is more to come about the Wolf Tribe. Besides, it is dangerous for you to return to Jiayuan. Almost all of Jiayuan Xuanjie is in Dasheng. You have enmity with the Xuangu Divine Sect. Needless to say, the Immortal Source Society is more than ten thousand miles away. Ao Wu is your best choice."
"How did the prince know there were so many?" Xue Tong wondered.
"How many people have you brought to live in the palace? Besides, there is also Ran'er's matter. How can I not find out more about it?" Fei Hanhai said with a smile.
"That's that, that's right, Xue Tong is stupid."
"The situation of Yunxiao Sect is good or bad. You have to wait for three to five years until Ao Wu's affairs settle down before you return."
"At least upgrade your spiritual pet and have multiple helpers."
Fei Hanhai's comments were in place, and Xue Tong suddenly became enlightened.
He called Xiao Yu'er, the Pei brothers and sisters, and Wen Guangmao, and told them all about the barbarians, and then said: "Everyone needs to hurry up and practice. If resources are tight, just speak up."
The four of them were treated as captains in the palace, and there was a sufficient supply of spiritual stones and pills. In addition to the large sum of spiritual stones given by Xue Tong previously, no one raised the issue of lack of resources.
"Brother Xue, Princess Ran is the most ruthless practitioner. I haven't seen her for almost two years." Xiao Yuer chuckled.
"Princess Ran is extremely talented and works harder than you. You four need to hurry up."
"Yes, only the eldest brother can compare with her." Xiao Yu'er said in a strange tone.
"Stop blabbering!" Xue Tong glared at Xiao Yu'er.
The five of them were drinking tea and chatting in the courtyard. Xue Tong mentioned that he might go to Dasheng Dynasty and Jiayuan Kingdom in three years. Wen Guangmao asked some questions about cultivation.
…
The poison of the piano insect is a poison of flesh and blood, and the bone puppet has no blood or flesh, so it is particularly easy to adapt to it. It has been upgraded all the way in the past, sucking dozens of snake and python poison elixirs, and has extremely strong resistance to poison. Xue Tong poured the entire bottle of poisonous juice into it The spiritual liquid and bone puppets are soaked in it, and all the toxins can be absorbed in three months.
The aura of the bone puppet becomes more and more powerful, its body is moss green, its soul fire is bright yellow, and its martial arts skills with swords, arrows and claws go hand in hand.
The innate monsters in Matachi's storage bag are all terrestrial, including lions, bears, tigers, leopards, snakes, and a rare corpse-eating monster ape.
Xue Tong sacrificed the blood of the innate beast to refine the flag to improve its quality and make the violent ape soul beast more nourished. He himself used blood pills, Hao Ling, and Jade Spirit pills to refine his body. He rarely took a day off for several months to intensify his training.
…
Two years later, I learned that after repeated requests from the Lang Ministry, a trade town "Fengding Town" was built on the side of the Ao-Wu border. The ore and wood brought by the barbarians were very popular. The red sandalwood and black wood that five people hugged It is more than twenty feet long, without any cracks, and the top and bottom are the same thickness. It is especially favored by the people of Aowu.
Barbarian warriors hunt and kill monsters, while ordinary orcs raise camels, horses, cattle and sheep, and plant bean-cake plants. The orcs are careless, the livestock losses are high, and the reproduction rate is low. Therefore, the more they raise, the less they raise, and they need to purchase supplements from the human race.
"Isn't that great? Both sides can share what they have and get what they need." Xue Tong felt a little relieved after hearing the news, and his worries seemed to be fading away.
He asked to see Prince Chong and said, "My lord, the human and barbarian tribes are becoming more and more harmonious. Xue Tong plans to go to Jiayuan and come back as soon as possible."
"Okay, go early and come back early. Has your spiritual pet been upgraded?"
"No, I hope it will be better when I come back."
…
Xue Tong's Chongguang cultivation plan began to take shape the moment he left Wanyu.
The enchanted monsters occupy 20% of Chongguang's area, which is an inexhaustible resource for Xue Tong.
Most of the barrier monsters are acquired, and only a few are innate. It is quite risky for Chongguang to enter the beast zone with innates, but Xue Tong does not need to worry.
He stayed in Weikui Cliff until the moment when the great demon appeared. The Grandmaster-level Iron Lion Beast should be the strongest barrier demon beast. The highest level of the demon beast left in the beast area is probably the innate peak.
"Use the black lacquer knife to destroy the innate peak, and use the divine whip to deal with the master-level monsters!"
Xue Tong traveled all the way south and arrived at the beast area a few days later.
The sky in the beast area seems to be darker, with erratic clouds and strong winds blowing from time to time.
The level of peripheral monsters is lower and gradually increases.
Xue Tong only hunts acquired high-level monsters, and often surrounds them with three spiritual pets. He watches and takes action when necessary, trying not to harm the beast soul as much as possible to feed the violent ape.
After entering the beast area for thousands of miles, Xue Tong hunted the first innate monster beast and killed four. After the violent ape swallowed the beast soul, his steps became staggering and he hurriedly got into the banner.
Upgrade is imminent.
Xue Tong made arrangements in the Demon Tiger Cave, sealing the cave entrance with a magic circle, and used the blood of more than ten kinds of innate beasts to sacrifice the flags in turn.
"When the violent ape soul beast wakes up, it is expected to reach great success!"
Xue Tong took out the venom gland of the piano insect and threw it into the fire phoenix medicine cauldron.
Sixty kilograms of dark green poisonous powder was refined into twelve porcelain bottles.
He applied a whole bottle of poison powder evenly to the bone puppet's body. One month later, when the poison powder was completely absorbed, the bone puppet held the Qin Chong Neidan in his hand and inhaled fiercely.
The strong wind like a knife peeled off the inner elixir layer by layer and flew into the puppet's mouth. The fine particles gradually spread along the mouth, jaw, and pharynx until they spread all over the puppet's body.
This is how the bone puppet absorbs the inner elixir.
After finishing eating the elixir, Xue Tong put the bone puppet into his pet bag, replaced it with new spiritual liquid, and sprinkled a handful of high-grade spiritual stones on it.
The upgrading method of bone puppets and violent apes can be used by those who are innately high-level. After that, because the master-level monsters are extremely difficult to find, this method is actually ineffective.
The weakest vulture is still far away from the time of breakthrough. It seems that it will still take four to five years until it reaches its full potential after taking inner elixirs, swallowing demonic birds, and tempering its body with thunder and lightning.
…
Ten months later, the banners and flags shook slightly, and wisps of black smoke came out.
Fahai sensed the aura of acquired success, and Xue Tong released his mental power, ready to swing to the soul beast's eyebrows at any time.
The divine light in the soul beast's eyes revealed that it was even more afraid of being submissive than before the upgrade. This made Xue Tong not only happy, but also surprised!
He thought about it and roughly guessed the clues.
"The power of the bloodline that can be stimulated by the explosive blood pills is decreasing day by day. The bloodline seems to be gradually merging with my body. The soul beast has been upgraded, its perception has been improved, and it has sensed my powerful physical breath. How did it behave like this?"
…
Another half year has passed, and there is news about the Bone Puppet Pet Bag!
The soul fire in the bone puppet's eye socket is bright white in the core, yellow in the middle circle, and faintly light green in the outer edge.
The body is dark green, the aura of the acquired peak!
Xue Tong was overjoyed and stayed in the Tiger Cave for another half a year. The Nightmare Bone Art broke through to the ninth level and ninth section, and then he punched open the Xiguang magic circle and jumped out of the cave.
At this moment, the explosive blood pills are almost ineffective against him, unless higher-grade blood pills are used, but that requires the blood of several types of master-level monsters, so it is unimaginable how difficult it is.
"It may be more practical to consume orc body refining blood pills and bean cakes for a long time."
"The refining space is still open, so there is no need to worry!"
…
Xue Tong returned the same way, planning to go to Aowu to see the situation before leaving officially.
He and his three spiritual pets wildly killed monsters and beasts all the way out of the beast zone. After half a month of leisurely wandering, they approached the newly built Fengding Town on the southeastern border of Aowu.
Xue Tong became more and more puzzled as he walked. There were more and more ownerless cattle and horses along the way. The land was close to the border. How could the orcs graze here?
He suddenly had an ominous premonition, "Did the orcs and Ao Wu have a falling out? Are they messing around at the border again?"
He put away the bone puppet Tyrant Ape, jumped on the back of the vulture, and flew to Fengding Town a hundred miles away.
