Chapter 39 The saboteurs are coming
According to normal people's logic, if Lin Yi takes a ghost-eyed golden eagle cub in the back mountain, he will not only be greatly slowed down and easily targeted by other people and spiritual beasts, but also very likely to be caught by the ghost-eyed golden eagle in the sky. Found out, the consequences would be disastrous.
What makes Xiao Ran and Qiao Hongcai feel helpless is that the surrounding area of the back mountain is as vast as the sea. The key is that they did not have time to make an agreement with Lin Yi in advance. Trying to find Lin Yi with their own strength is like looking for a needle in a haystack. Easier said than done.
Fortunately, the two of them were not stupid enough to only look for Lin Yi. In addition to collecting the heavenly materials and earthly treasures encountered on the road, Xiao Ran also had to pay attention to the various spiritual beasts encountered. Although Qiao Hongcai's spiritual pet was found, His spiritual pet talisman is still in his hand.
With Qiao Hongcai's ghost-eyed golden eagle cub in front of him, Xiao Ran's vision cannot be lowered. Not only must he have strength, but he must also have potential, so it is difficult for ordinary spiritual beasts to fall into his eyes.
Although there are countless spiritual beasts in the back mountain, it is actually not easy to find those that meet these two conditions at the same time and must be within the scope of the low-level spiritual pet talismans.
Unless Xiao Ran, like Qiao Hongcai, specifically targets the cubs of certain powerful spiritual beasts, that would be able to meet these requirements, but the risk involved is something that Xiao Ran simply cannot bear with his current strength.
Fortunately, Xiao Ran has always had a peaceful mind and is not too eager for quick success and instant gain. Even if he has not found the right person for the time being, he is still not impatient. There is a time in life that must be there, and there is no time in life, so don't force it.
Xiao Ran and Qiao Hongcai were just wandering outside the back mountain. However, unexpectedly, they did not encounter Lin Yi, but instead ran into their mortal enemy, Meng Tong.
At this moment, a group of newcomers headed by Meng Tong were on high alert, especially Meng Tong. At this time, he was even more nervous and sweating, and he didn't dare to take a breath.
There was no other reason. Meng Tong was trying to tame a spiritual beast, which he forced a group of people to spend a full ten days on. Only then did he finally find the perfect target for him.
The black-backed stick ape is one of the very few spiritual beasts that is born with the ability to use weapons. Its adult body strength can reach above the initial stage of foundation building, and this one is currently being targeted by Meng Tong. He is a quasi-adult who has just left the protection of his parents, and his strength is at the peak of the late heaven level.
For Meng Tong, this black-backed stick ape is like a pie from the sky. I am afraid that there is no spiritual pet in the world that is more suitable for him. There is only one problem at the moment. Can the low-level spiritual pet talisman in his hand conquer this black-backed stick ape?
Li Zhengming stood on the canopy of a nearby tree and watched coldly. Under the leadership of Meng Tong, the black-backed stick ape had been surrounded by a group of them and had nowhere to escape. It had been beaten and seriously injured in many places and had no recovery at all. The initial ferocity.
With just a low-level spiritual pet talisman, if you want to conquer a spiritual beast at the peak of the late heaven level, the probability of success is not high, but if this black-backed stick ape has lost its will to resist, it is still very likely that Meng Tong will succeed. of.
Meng Tong has already begun to conquer them. Normally, if nothing unexpected happens, the results will come out within a matter of just one stick of incense.
Seeing all this, Li Zhengming couldn't help but secretly worry. There is no doubt about the strength of the black-backed stick ape. If it is equipped with a good stick weapon, at the level of ordinary spiritual beasts, it can defeat almost all invincible opponents at the same level. Not a problem.
If Meng Tong can successfully subdue this time, just relying on this black-backed stick ape, which is at the peak of the late heaven level, will be enough to secure the first place in this spiritual pet assessment. with no doubt.
Li Zhengming certainly didn't want him to succeed so easily, but there were so many people at the moment, and if he tried to sabotage it secretly, it would be easy for him to reveal his flaws. As Lin Yi's key undercover agent under Meng Jueguang, if he was exposed in advance just for this trivial matter, it would really be more than worth the gain.
But if this continues, once Meng Tong is successfully subdued, when the time comes for the spiritual pets to fight, even Lin Yi may not be able to deal with him. After all, the person fighting against was a spiritual pet, so it would be useless no matter how strong Lin Yi was.
Just when Li Zhengming was in a dilemma, Xiao Ran and Qiao Hongcai happened to pass by not far away.
In fact, according to the original route, the two of them would not encounter Meng Tong's group. Under normal circumstances, they would just pass by each other. However, now that Li Zhengming was standing on the top of the tree canopy, the situation was completely different.
From a high position, a tree fruit that could be seen everywhere suddenly hit the two of them, which really startled Xiao Ran and Qiao Hongcai, and their attention was immediately attracted.
Li Zhengming, the instigator, pretended not to notice the two of them and continued to stand on the canopy of the tree as if nothing had happened, performing the lookout task imposed on him by Meng Tong.
Xiao Ran and Qiao Hongcai were both masters in the early stage of foundation building. Normally, they might not be able to discover Meng Tong and his group, but now with Li Zhengming's reminder, it only took a moment to discover Meng Tong and others.
"It's true that we are enemies in a narrow road. Newcomer Meng Da, you are so lucky to conquer a spiritual pet. Do you want me to help you?" Qiao Hongcai sneered, rolled up his sleeves and rushed over.
Opposite were a dozen people led by Meng Tong, but he launched the charge without any scruples and did not take the opponent seriously at all.
Xiao Ran followed closely, but he glanced at Li Zhengming thoughtfully. Qiao Hongcai might not be able to tell whose hand the fruit came from just now, but he couldn't hide it from Xiao Ran's eyes.
What was Li Zhengming's intention in deliberately luring the two of them here with fruit?
Xiao Ran couldn't help but wonder. If Murong Zhen, a woman like this, was present, his actions could be understood as luring a snake into an urn. After all, with the strength of Murong Zhen and Meng Tong's group, they were more than enough to deal with himself and Qiao Hongcai, but now they couldn't see him at all. Murong Zhen's shadow, by attracting the two of them here like this, isn't he doing something bad for Meng Tong?
When Xiao Ran was hesitant, Qiao Hongcai had already rushed to Meng Tong and his group. Meng Tong suddenly became anxious and shouted to all the newcomers of Qingyun Pavilion: "Quickly stop him, there will be a big reward afterwards!"
Now was the critical moment for him to subdue the black-backed stick ape. He was about to be successful. If he was interrupted by Qiao Hongcai, his success would be in vain, and even the spiritual pet talisman he used would be in vain.
It's just that Qiao Hongcai's strength has been obvious to all in the Newcomer Challenge. Even Meng Tong, a master in the early stage of foundation building, was beaten half to death by the opponent. These newcomers of Qingyun Pavilion present are only the Great Perfection of Heaven Level. Dare to fight to the death with such a stupid young man so easily.
Therefore, even if Meng Tong used a large reward to boost morale, none of the new members of Qingyun Pavilion were willing to give their full effort. It was obviously not worth paying the price of serious injuries or even lives for this so-called large reward. (To be continued.)
