In order to save time, Shang Xia rushed all the way into the gathering place of exotic monkeys deep in the mangrove forest. Naturally, he was prepared to be besieged by the monkeys.
But what Shang Xia didn't expect was that the Changbai disciple who he had ignored before, instead of running away after Qi Yunxiu fled and Lang Qingyun died, actually dared to attack him boldly, and the timing was extremely clever.
But what interests Shang Xia more is how this person avoided his perception and lurked behind him?
You know, after Shang Xia started practicing the "Celestial Sensing Chapter", he was not only able to converge his Qi to avoid the eyes and ears of most fourth-level warriors, but his martial arts will perception also became Extremely sharp.
It is obviously impossible for this Changbai disciple to avoid his will perception in advance. In fact, this person has always been in the perception of Shang Ke and Shang Xia.
But in the previous confrontation with two fourth-level warriors, the existence of this person was ignored. He never thought that this person was not only extremely courageous, daring to take chestnuts from the fire at this time, but even had something on his body that could cover his own energy.
If it were any third-level warrior, even a third-level Dzogchen warrior, facing this kind of behind-the-scenes group fights and pincer attacks, I am afraid that they would have been waiting for death, and at most they would have struggled in vain.
But when the person facing this seemingly hopeless situation is Shang Xia, everything will become possible.
The tip of the Red Star Spear broke off. Although it was still usable, Shang Xia, who was holding the gun with one hand, cut the spear horizontally as he did, and it looked like he performed a nondescript sword move!
True energy surges, qi energy flourishes, and the sword light flashes!
In one breath, Shang Xia relied on his true energy to set up the "Liangyi Qiankun Sword Formation" which he renamed the "Qi Jue Sword Formation"!
Seven bipolar sword intentions, a total of 14 bipolar sword qi, were combined with the source of Liangyi. The sword light divided and converged, and an invisible sword array was laid out around Shang Xia, killing all attacks that might threaten him.
The various objects thrown by the monkeys turned into dust under the attack of the sword array, and the Changbai disciple's sneak attack finally retreated after breaking through the four layers of sword nets set up by Shang Xia.
However, how could Shang Xia let the other party retreat easily?
The opponent was able to break through four layers of his sword net in one breath, so he was obviously not an easy person.
I saw Shang Xia pull out the Yuhe Sword from his sleeve, which directly caused the Liangyi Qiankun Sword Formation to surge, and the range covered by the sword formation also expanded, and he was about to trap the Changbai disciple in the sword formation.
However, this Changbai disciple was extremely decisive and retreated immediately after missing a hit.
The sword formation behind him expanded, and several sword lights came in. He just threw out a flash of sword light without looking back, annihilating most of the sword lights behind him, and let the last two remaining sword lights sink into his body. Zhuan let out a muffled groan, and then fled out of the mangrove forest at a faster speed.
This person's strength is obviously not as good as that of Changbai's direct descendant who had had previous confrontations with Shang Xia!
Upon seeing this, Shang Xia could only glance at the man's fleeing back. At the same time, he secretly noted this person's popularity, and then turned around to deal with the dozens of monkeys in front of him.
Nearly a hundred monkeys of the first, second and third levels ambushed and attacked them, but they were unable to get a single blow from Shang Xia.
At this time, after Shang Xia took action to counterattack, how could these nearly a hundred strange monkeys withstand Shang Xia's offensive?
But it has to be said that these exotic monkeys themselves have extremely high intelligence. Even if there is no fourth-level monkey king to command at this time, many exotic monkeys are unable to sense the approaching danger, and keep jumping in the forest, heading away from Shangxia direction to escape.
As for the rest, when the sword formation surrounding him began to expand outwards and revealed its majesty, it was already too late to run away.
These monkeys are not very tall, but they are very powerful. In addition, they are flexible and can jump up and down between the trees. It is extremely difficult to capture their figures.
However, at this time, Shang Xia did not need to capture them one by one. He just volleyed the Yuhe Sword in a circle, and a large amount of sword energy first shuttled back and forth within a three-hundred-foot range around him, killing all the strange monkeys that had no time to escape. kill.
Then, as Shang Xia was at the edge of the limit of the sword formation he controlled, he suddenly released countless sword energies, and large swaths of sword light shot out thirty feet away, once again expanding the distance by fifty feet.
Dozens of strange monkeys fell from the big trees one after another without even making a scream.
Only the last twenty odd monkeys, who either saw the opportunity early or were lucky enough to escape the sword energy, let out a shrill howl, calling their monkey king, while moving in different directions on the treetops. Each fled.
Deep in the redwood forest, Shang Xia stood up with his sword put away, and took a deep breath first.
Although the Liangyi Qiankun Sword Formation was a magical swordsmanship he had developed when he was in the Liangyi Realm, using this sword formation on such a large scale still put a considerable burden on Shang Xia's own true energy.
Fortunately, the power of this set of sword formation magical powers is considerable enough. Even from the perspective of Shang Xia now standing on the threshold of the fourth heaven, it is enough to cope with the siege of many warriors of the same level.
But at this moment, a sharp roar came from the edge of the mangrove forest.
Shang Xia's method of massacring all the exotic beasts and monkeys just now was obviously known to the fourth-level monkey king who was fighting against Shang Ke.
The angry monkey king couldn't get rid of Shang Ke's entanglement for a while, and could only howl with anger and sorrow.
The roars of fourth-level beasts are usually enough to shock low-level warriors to the point of blood boiling, causing chaos in their true energy. In more severe cases, they can lose control of their vitality and cause serious injuries all over the body.
However, for Shang Xia, the howling of the fourth-level monkey king only made him feel a little restless.
But this also reminded Shang Xia that he had to speed up. The strength of the fourth-order monkey king was very likely to exceed that of Shang Ke. Now that the monkey king's group was slaughtered, the fourth-order monkey king might go crazy. .
Shang Xia shuttled through the forest and soon found the center where the monkeys gathered.
The ground here is in a mess, with all kinds of wild fruits discarded on the ground everywhere.
But the forest is filled with a special smell of wine, fruit and medicine mixed together.
Shang Xia's eyes soon fell on the trunks of some of the thickest trees.
Shang Xia had long noticed that the trunks of this mangrove forest were extremely dense.
The monkeys dig out large enough tree holes in the tree trunks to make wine. After the wine inside is formed, it will not seep out at all.
Even when Shang Xia tried to use his martial arts will to sense which tree trunk the monkey wine had been brewed, he seemed to be blocked by layers of obstacles, making it extremely difficult for his martial arts will to penetrate deeply.
But this was not difficult for Shang Xia. He just walked around under a few thick trees and could see the mud seals used by the monkeys to seal the tree holes.
By carefully checking the dryness and hardness of the mud seal, you can roughly estimate how long the monkey wine has been sealed in the tree trunk. From this, you can roughly judge whether the wine has been successfully brewed and its quality.
Although the monkey king of the monkey group is a fourth-level alien beast, the monkey wine brewed from the tree trunk is most unlikely to be a fourth-level drink.
Shang Xia jumped up to the mud seal on the tree trunk. After carefully opening the mud seal, a strong aroma of wine suddenly gushes out from the tree hole.
Shang Xia just took a breath and felt a little dizzy.
His heartbeat accelerated a few times, and the vitality in his body felt fluctuating.
Shang Xia quickly circulated the true energy in his body, and at the same time, his martial arts will looked inwards at his own body, and he quickly expelled the alcohol inhaled from his body.
"I'm lucky, I found the third-level monkey wine right away!"
Shang Xia was overjoyed. The monkey wine that could affect him must be of the third level.
It is rumored that the strange monkey can improve its strength by drinking monkey wine, and it can even be used as an advanced potion to complete its own level promotion.
The third-level monkey wine in this tree hole is presumably used by the monkey king to reward the third-level alien monkeys in the group and to promote the second-level alien monkeys.
Of course, this kind of drink cannot be compared with the real advanced potion. Even if it has the effect of promotion, it requires long-term and large amounts of drinking. Moreover, this effect is extremely likely to be only for the alien monkey group. .
However, it is an undisputed fact that Monkey Wine is extremely effective in assisting warriors in their cultivation.
Shang Xia found an imprisoned spirit bottle from the Jinyun Box, put his true energy into the bottle and took a photo towards the tree hole. Suddenly, a stream of light red and slightly turbid wine flew out, and was continuously inhaled. In the spirit bottle.
After a while, the monkey wine that had been sealed away for several years by a group of strange monkeys in this tree cave was stolen by Shang Xia.
Shang Xia quickly changed to another mangrove tree with a thick trunk. After removing the mud seal on the trunk, the aroma of wine pouring out of it was much weaker this time, and the vitality inside was not strong.
Obviously, the quality of the monkey wine in this tree cave is obviously inferior.
Shang Xia originally wanted to use another Spirit Bottle, but in the end he replaced it with a Jue Ling Bag because after taking out the wine, he found that the Cave Monkey Wine was not even the second level and only the first level quality. Just steps.
Disappointed, Shang Xia even found two tree caves for making wine, but they only produced first-class wine.
It wasn't until he found the fifth tree cave that he finally found the monkey wine on the second level of the cave, which was filled with a spirit bottle.
Before Shang Xia could find the sixth tree cave, Shang Ke's roar suddenly came from the mangrove forest.
Shang Xia felt a shiver in his heart. This was the code they had agreed upon before, indicating that Shang Ke's delay in the fourth-level monkey king was almost reaching its limit, urging him to leave as soon as possible.
The strength of the fourth-level alien beast monkey king is indeed greater than that of the fifth uncle!
Shang Xia quickly jumped to the next tree trunk. After opening the mud seal on it, he quickly pulled out a bottle of second-level monkey wine from the tree hole inside.
The time for a stick of incense is coming soon, and he can no longer stay. At this time, not only Shang Ke is about to lose his hold, but other fourth-level warriors are also about to arrive.
Shang Xia was not greedy either. Although he knew that there must be caves in the surrounding mangroves for brewing monkey wine, he had emptied six tree caves of monkey wine, and he must have gotten the bulk of it.
But just when Shang Xia was about to leave, his eyes suddenly caught a glimpse of the central area where the monkeys gathered. It was surrounded by giant mangrove trees that were thicker than two people hugging each other. But only in the middle, There is a mangrove tree that is only as thick as the mouth of a bowl standing in the middle.
Originally, tree trunks of this thickness were very common in mangroves, but now, surrounded by mangroves that were thicker than two people hugging each other, it seemed a bit strange.
Shang Xia, who was just about to leave, was already standing on the branches of the mangrove tree, and found that there was also a fist-sized mud seal here.
Shang Xia was curious and immediately opened the mud seal.
Unexpectedly, a light red wine mist suddenly surged out of it. Shang Xia took a gentle sniff, but almost fell off the tree branch.
This is... fourth-level monkey wine?
