"I'm going to take someone on my back even if I die!" Zhou Yang gritted his teeth and said fiercely.
"Okay, that's right, I have to kill one of them no matter what, so that you won't be lonely on the road!" Zhong Pengfei smiled miserably, preparing to drain all his mana and vow to give the invading monster ape a fatal blow.
The two demonic apes could smell the changes in human aura and were very aware of the situation in front of them, so they slowly moved forward. They have already regarded Zhou Yang as food in their mouths, it just takes some effort.
However, just as the demon ape was about to pounce, a deafening tiger roar suddenly came from the forest. This roar shook the mountains and shook the trees wildly.
"That's the roar of the Scarlet Flame Horned Tiger. It's the fifth-level high-level Scarlet Flame Horned Tiger!" Zhong Pengfei was stunned. At this time, he no longer had any fear and just smiled bitterly. Two low-level fifth-level demonic apes were enough to kill them, and now another high-level fifth-level demonic beast came. It was really hard for gods to save them! .
"Red Flame Horned Tiger!" When Zhou Yang heard this, his heart moved. Could it be the Red Flame Horned Tiger that attacked the mine? If it really is it, maybe there is still a glimmer of hope!
The two demonic apes were also frightened. They stopped and looked around, somewhat surprised and uncertain. Judging from the roar of the tiger, the red flaming horned tiger was not far away.
Whether to kill the two people in front of them first and then leave, or to run away immediately, the two monsters couldn't decide for a moment to pay attention.
Suddenly, another earth-shattering tiger roar came, but it was much closer to them.
The two demon apes glanced at each other, then disappeared after a few ups and downs.
But Zhong Pengfei was not happy because the monster ape escaped, but felt even more sad.
The Red Flame Horned Tiger is much more powerful than the two gibbon monster apes, so how can it survive? Only then did he feel that this trip to Cangshou Mountain was too reckless and he was seriously underprepared.
This is no wonder Zhong Pengfei. After all, he is from Tuyan. He doesn't know much about the situation in Cangshou Mountain, and he only hears about the news on the mountain.
Although he had made a lot of preparations and even put on an intermediate inner armor that could protect his heart, it was still not enough. Not to mention the red flame horned tiger, just two demonic apes could tear him to pieces.
Sighing secretly, Zhong Pengfei put down everything in his heart and prepared to die generously, but he had to die in battle!
But after waiting for a while, no monster appeared, and both he and Zhou Yang became a little surprised.
After waiting for a few more breaths, there was still no movement.
Zhong Pengfei and Zhou Yang were overjoyed. Could it be that God was also helping them?
The roar of the tiger scared away the two monster apes, but the terrifying red-flamed horned tiger did not appear. What was originally a certain death situation turned to life again. It can be said to be a huge change from hell to heaven. If you don't leave now, how long will it take?
"There seems to be a place with sparse vegetation ahead. I'm going to find a cave to hide in as soon as possible!" Zhong Pengfei woke up and tried his best to release his consciousness, and said after a moment.
"Okay!" The two quickly left the place and ran towards the determined direction.
It didn't take long for the two of them to successfully find the area.
There is only a piece of strange rocks and a few sparse weeds here. Due to the darkness, it is difficult to see what is different about the rocks here. The two separated and began searching carefully.
Not long after, Zhong Pengfei's voice came: "Found it!"
Zhou Yang heard the sound and looked for it.
In the area that Zhong Pengfei found, the mountain was not very steep and there were many rocks, but they were smaller than other rocks and there were some smaller gravels around. Directly in front of this piece of rubble is a huge boulder. The boulder is very smooth and glows with blue light in the night.
There are a few sparse weeds under the mountain next to the boulder, which is as tall as half a person. There is a vague hole in the middle, several feet square, and you really can't find it without careful inspection.
Zhong Pengfei picked up a stone, pushed aside the weeds and threw it into the cave. Half a breath later, there was a clang, but it was the sound of stones colliding. There was a faint sound in the cave, as if small animals were running away. , and then there was no sound again.
Zhong Pengfei released his consciousness to check, and after a moment he said: "Let's go down." After that, he lowered his head and got in first, followed closely by Zhou Yang holding his sword.
It was pitch dark inside the cave, and I couldn't see my fingers. But both of them had strong senses. They felt that the cave was very deep, and there was the sound of running water in the distance. There should be a stream or something like that.
Zhou Yang took out two luminous stones from his arms and handed one to Zhong Pengfei, which was also the item he purchased before.
The luminous stone can only illuminate a small area in front, but it is also very useful in a dark cave.
Zhou Yang felt something hard on his head. He stretched out his hand and touched it. It was a slender and cold stone pillar. Then I looked around the top of my head, and there were actually many stone pillars. There were water droplets on the stone pillars, which fell to the ground from time to time, making a soft dripping sound.
The stones on the ground were uneven, so the two of them groped forward and walked carefully.
After lighting a stick of incense, Zhou Yang felt that they were getting closer and closer to the sound of running water. The moist air blew towards them, and the two of them suddenly felt refreshed.
It was already winter, and it was very cold outside the cave. When we first entered the cave, the cold wind was howling, but the further we walked into the cave, the warmer it became. Coupled with the sound of running water, it made people feel like they were in a place where spring flowers were blooming, as if they were warm. The moist spring breeze blows on the face, and it feels like a girl's hand gently caressing it, which makes people feel very comfortable.
"This is a cave. This stream should be connected to the underground river. If you follow the stream, you will go deeper and deeper. But this cave is very deep. I don't know if there are other monsters inside. We still have to explore inside. Tan, you must be careful." Zhong Pengfei said while holding the sword in one hand.
Since he no longer used his spiritual power, he took several more elixirs, and Zhou Yang also bandaged his wounds, so his condition had stabilized at this time, but there were still bursts of severe pain from the wounds, but nothing happened. He was forcibly suppressed.
He has lost his left arm, and his strength will be greatly reduced in the future. Unless his cultivation reaches the golden elixir level and he finds a method to regenerate a broken arm, he will lose his arm for life.
Of course, there is another way, which is to cure it with a panacea.
Among Zhou Yang's alchemy tips is a fourth-grade elixir called the Four Spirits Regeneration Pill, which can regenerate the severed limbs of cultivators.
However, Zhou Yang had never even heard of the materials required for this elixir, so how could he talk about refining it? However, he believed that one day he would gather what he needed to refine the Four Spirits Regeneration Pill for his uncle.
Zhong Pengfei has experienced many life and death catastrophes, and he is very open-minded about this. It is good to survive. What does it matter if he loses an arm? As long as he is determined, it will not affect anything.
Furthermore, there is still the possibility of rebirth after a broken arm is broken in the future. Therefore, he was not in a very depressed mood at this time and was still carefully exploring the situation inside the cave.
Zhou Yang also admired his uncle's open-mindedness. If he had broken his arm, he might not be as good as his uncle.
He also felt very guilty about this. If he hadn't insisted on coming to Cangshou Mountain, if he hadn't been overly thoughtful and poorly prepared, his uncle wouldn't have lost his arm. However, his uncle was so cheerful and open-minded that he felt a little more at ease.
The two continued to move forward in the dark, feeling that the cave became wider and wider as they went inside.
After a long journey, they finally arrived at the creek.
Zhong Pengfei leaned down, tested the water in the creek with his hand, put his hand to his mouth and licked it, then said: "The water is non-toxic and drinkable. It is estimated that there are some low-level monsters living in the cave."
As he was speaking, something suddenly jumped out of the water. If Zhong Pengfei hadn't been able to dodge quickly, he would have hit him head-on.
The two of them had been walking in the cave for a long time and had adapted to the darkness without using their spiritual consciousness, so Zhou Yang vaguely saw the object, which should be a fish.
He gushed out a surge of spiritual power, instantly reeling in the fish and bringing it to his eyes for viewing. The fish struggled desperately, shaking its head and tail, spitting out bubbles from its mouth, and then bursting them one by one.
Zhou Yang looked at it carefully and saw that the fish was gray in color, about two feet long, with a big mouth and no eyes. It was very powerful and struggled endlessly. If Zhou Yang's spiritual power hadn't wrapped it tightly, it would have escaped.
"This is an eyeless gray carp." Zhou Yang was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed.
The key to alchemy records a kind of eyeless fish with a gray body and round scales, named the eyeless gray carp. Although this fish has no eyesight, it has very sensitive senses and a certain amount of consciousness. It can avoid natural enemies early in the water, so its survival ability is very strong.
This fish has a special feature: it is difficult to find and easy to catch. After taking it, it can increase the strength of the practitioner's spiritual consciousness.
Although the eyeless gray carp is not a material for refining the spirit-tonifying elixir, if some gray carp brains are added to the elixir, the effect of the spirit-tonifying elixir will be even better, and it will be very effective in nourishing and replenishing the practitioner's spiritual consciousness.
However, if it is cooked and eaten, the brain will be discarded. Therefore, if the eyeless gray carp is eaten directly, the effect of replenishing spiritual consciousness will be less effective. It is better to put it in a tonic pill.
Having said that, the God-Building Pill is not that easy to refine. Just the various materials are a headache.
The God-Building Pill is still far from enough, and there should be a lot of fish in the creek. Let's try it first before talking.
However, he was a little confused. Why did Gray Carp take the initiative to bump into people if he had such a sensitive sense and a small amount of spiritual consciousness?
He first stunned the gray carp, put it aside, squatted down with doubts, and touched the stream with his hands.
Suddenly, another object jumped out of the water and hit him. However, with his previous experience, a roll of spiritual power, and another eyeless gray carp, he finally understood why this fish was so difficult to find and easy to catch.
"It turns out that it has an innate sense of the cultivator's breath. What use does this kind of breath do to it?"
Seeing this, Zhong Pengfei asked doubtfully: "Is it useful to you?"
"Exactly, the name of this fish is gray carp without eyes. It is a material that supplements the spiritual consciousness of cultivators. It can be eaten directly or made into elixirs, which will be more effective."
"Oh, it has such an effect? Well, in this huge world, there are really many wonders!" Zhong Pengfei clicked his tongue in surprise.
"Yes, we cultivators may not be able to see through this world in our lifetime." Zhou Yang sighed.
"Haha, who said there is something wrong with your state of mind? I'm very optimistic. If you continue like this, even if there is a problem, it will heal itself without medical treatment." Zhong Pengfei said with a smile.
"Really, I really feel a lot more open-minded when my uncle said this. I hope that as my uncle said, he can heal on his own without medical treatment, haha!" Zhou Yang was in a good mood at this time and laughed loudly.
"A chess player is very good at cultivating his mind. How about you and I playing a game after finishing the fish?"
"Uncle Master, how is that possible? Your injury..."
"Nursing your heart is also healing your wounds. I'll help you get the fish first." Zhong Pengfei waved his hand.
