Wei Shuan pointed to the rocky beach not far away.
"When I saw it a few days ago, it was lying on the rocky beach, with the spirit beast eggs at its feet. I can't mistake the eggs of the Nine-tailed Crested Sparrow. It was eating at the time, and when it found me, it The Hidden Breathing Beast grabbed the spirit beast egg and ran into the river."
Ji Qingling asked him: "Junior Brother Wei, why do you think the monster was injured?"
"For some reason, half of its wings were broken."
"Half broken?"
Wei Shuan nodded, "I had been observing it before it was discovered, and it is true that half of its left wing was broken. So I think it is still nearby even if it is not in the lake."
Injured monsters would most likely find a place with water to recuperate. Everyone divided into several teams and started searching around.
Soon I discovered that there were traces of gnawed spiritual grass in the nearby woods.
It might be the hidden beast.
But that guy was really good at hiding. They spent a whole day but couldn't find any trace of it.
Zhou Yan has been wandering around the lake. There is nothing abnormal on the calm lake. The gentle breeze blows layers of water waves.
Is it possible that we really want to try going to the lake?
Ji Qingling and others have also returned, and it is already dark today.
They plan to camp here tonight and continue tomorrow.
Ji Qingling was a little curious, "If this hidden beast remains invisible and it is injured, can its magic support it?"
Wei Shuan shook his head, "This hidden breath beast's magic power is not strong, so it cannot remain invisible all the time even on weekdays. What's more, it is injured now."
"Could it be that you have already left here?"
"The Nine-tailed Phoenix Crested Bird was killed by Taoist Master Yunhua in Dongshan. If the Hidden Breathing Beast came from Dongshan after being injured, then it may not be able to continue after that."
Guan Ping saw that it was getting dark and said, "Try to go into the water tomorrow."
On the second day, Ji Qingling and others stood on the shore eager to try.
Guan Ping didn't understand why Junior Sister Ji insisted on going down together, "Junior Sister Ji, pay attention to changing your breathing after you get down, and don't exhaust your spiritual power."
Ji Qingling nodded, "I know, I know."
Except for the small lake at the outer gate last time, I had never been in the water anywhere else, so I was very curious about what was underneath.
There is no reason to take advantage of doing tasks in vain. She feels that her water ability should be ranked first among the team.
After several people entered the water, as agreed in advance, Guan Ping, who had the highest level of cultivation, and his other teammate went to search for the deep water.
Ji Qingling and another person were searching nearby, while others were on guard on the shore.
There is nothing special in the lake, just fish, water and plants.
Because the Hidden Breathing Beast can become invisible and gather its breath, they cannot detect third-level monsters even with their spiritual sense.
The two had to separate and use a dragnet method to start searching.
Ji Qingling carefully observed the surrounding water flow. Invisibility does not mean disappearing. As long as it is in the water, the water flow around it will definitely be different.
After searching for a long time, she finally found it next to a giant aquatic plant. The water there didn't look like it was passing through the aquatic plant.
There is something!
She quietly touched it, and before her hands even touched the water plants, she first encountered the hidden beast they had been looking for!
The moment the Hidden Breathing Beast was touched, it immediately turned from transparent to black and scurried far away.
Maybe it was because he didn't have enough magic power. During the escape process, he sometimes became invisible and sometimes showed his real body.
The two paws in front of the round body are holding their target this time - the eggs of the Nine-tailed Crested Sparrow!
Throwing a spell towards the water, a golden spell flashed on the surface of the lake.
Kishi, Zhou Yan and others saw the signal and chased in that direction.
Ji Qingling, who was underwater, couldn't catch up with the third-level monster even if he took the magic talisman.
When others arrived, the hidden beast disappeared again.
Just when everyone thought they needed to search in the water again, Ji Qingling waved to them.
He pointed to a direction on the shore and whispered: "Shh~ over there!"
This time everyone also detected the aura of the Hidden Breath Beast.
Maybe he was too injured to hold his breath.
After a few light body techniques, everyone reached their destination.
Everyone was a little surprised when they saw the scene in front of them.
This is?
The Hidden Breathing Beast gave birth to a cub?
The Hidden Breath Beast with broken wings lay there dying, its claws trying hard to pull the spirit beast egg to the little cub's mouth.
It's a pity that the little cub is the same as the big one, with more air coming out and less air coming in. I'm afraid he won't survive.
Guan Ping stepped forward and picked up the egg and handed it to Zhou Yan.
The Hidden Breathing Beast finally gave up its struggle, and it made a "gu~gu~" sound from its mouth.
Wei Shuan boldly stepped forward to check.
"This is the big Hidden Breathing Beast that stole the eggs for this little one!"
Zhou Yan was a little curious, "Junior Brother Wei, why is it so bold and dares to steal the sixth-level monster egg?"
"You see, this little one was born with insufficient breath, so he should be unhappy. Maybe the older one sensed the shortcomings of the little beast, and stole the eggs before giving birth to it, trying to get a chance for its own child. Vitality, after all, this monster egg is really a great tonic for them."
Wei Shuan pointed to the egg in Zhou Yan's hand.
After hearing this, Zhou Yan felt that she couldn't hold the egg in her hand, and she began to sympathize with the two hidden beasts.
"Huh? So it steals eggs all for its children?"
Zhou Yan sniffed and placed the egg next to the little beast, "Forget it, his mother broke one of her wings for it, I don't want this egg anymore!"
What!
The monster eggs that everyone has worked so hard to find, just say you don’t want them anymore?
Guan Ping was really shocked by Zhou Yan's actions.
"Junior Sister Zhou?"
Zhou Yan didn't look at the egg anymore, took out a pack of spirit stones from the storage bag and handed it to Guan Ping.
"Senior Brother Guan, this is the reward agreed upon before."
"you?"
Zhou Yan had a smile on her face, "It's okay, this egg was originally intended to be given as a gift, but now it has a greater effect on this little beast. I can just find something else to give to others. I'll look for you The purpose of helping is to find this egg, and now it has been found, so your reward must be given to you."
Zhou Yan knelt down, moved the little beast into the arms of the mother beast, and placed the egg next to them.
He stood up and clapped his hands, "Okay, let's go back."
She was the first to turn around and walk back the way she came.
Wei Shuan called out to her, "Senior Sister Zhou!"
"What?"
"It's useless, they won't survive. Not even the big ones or the small ones."
Zhou Yan stood there, and the smile on her lips slowly disappeared.
Wei Shuan continued, "This big one will die soon. Even if the little beast eats the egg, it won't survive. You'd better take the egg away."
"you sure?"
Wei Shuan had no choice but to say, "Then let's just wait here, it won't take a stick of incense."
"Just wait and wait!"
Zhou Yan walked over angrily and squatted next to the Hidden Breath Beast.
Fu turned to Wei Shuan and shouted, "Aren't there any pills for them to take?"
"without."
Wei Shuan's voice was a little weak this time, and he felt that Zhou Yan's inexplicable anger was directed at him.
Ji Qingling did not leave, she also squatted beside Zhou Yan, "It will live and die according to its destiny. This is its destiny."
After a long time, Zhou Yan said in a low voice, "No one is destined to die!"
