"I said we finally made it to the Fallen Immortal Mountains, why don't we keep flying like this without going around?" An Qiuhe grabbed Mo Ziyuan's arm with one hand and pointed to the rapidly receding scenery under his feet with the other hand. : "Look how beautiful it is here!"
Zhang Xiaosheng looked at the undulating mountains all around. Countless green and unknown trees towered into the sky. Occasionally, flying monsters with bright feathers flapped their dazzling wings and flew past in the distance. They also made beautiful chirping sounds. If he hadn't known This is the Meteor Immortal Mountain Range. I really thought it was some otherworldly wonderland. I smiled and shook my head and said:
"When you are free in the future, you can live here!"
"You just live here, your entire sect lives here." An Qiuhe bickered with Zhang Xiaosheng out of habit.
Zhang Xiaosheng smiled again and stopped talking.
A few words of teasing with An Qiuhe also made him relax a lot. He has been flying for two days, and he is afraid that the finals of the alchemy competition have also entered a critical moment. After the alchemy competition is completed, the people from Wandan Pavilion will go south to circle. After such an incident, even the top Nascent Soul masters would not be able to find them again.
But despite this, Zhang Xiaosheng felt a little uneasy in his heart. He didn't know why, but he always felt that he was missing something.
"Brother An, what do you think the Nascent Soul stage is like?"
"I'm not in the Nascent Soul stage, how do I know?" An Qiuhe curled his lips, was he mocking himself?
"No, what I mean is, what is the difference between the Nascent Soul Stage and the Golden Core Stage? You are at a higher level and have more contact with Senior Guan Xingzi. Can you tell me how you feel?" Zhang Xiaosheng said again.
Seeing that Zhang Xiaosheng was indeed not teasing him, An Qiuhe thought seriously for a while and said:
"The biggest difference between the Nascent Soul stage and the Golden Core stage is the control and perception of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. You also know that in the Golden Core stage, twelve meridians are opened in the Golden Core and finally activated, thereby controlling the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. The traction will also reach a limit."
Zhang Xiaosheng nodded, he knew this very well, and through the system he could monitor at any time that every time a little meridians are opened, the pulling power of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth will increase. If one is almost successfully opened, it will increase by a little more than 4%, so there are twelve meridians. If all development is successful, it will reach about 50%.
"When it is finally activated, the increased traction from the first to ninth levels of the golden elixir will instantly double." An Qiuhe continued.
Double it, that’s 100%, Zhang Xiaosheng understood instantly.
"The golden elixir is originally generated by the highly concentrated compression and condensation of one's own energy and spirit, coupled with the infusion of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. The meridians in the golden elixir are also successfully opened bit by bit when receiving the spirit, until the final transformation into an infant is achieved, and the traction force reaches a certain level. , thereby directly drawing the purest spiritual energy essence between heaven and earth into the body to activate the meridians. After the meridians are completely activated, in a sense, there is no difference between Yuanying and human beings except for the physical body."
"And the Nascent Soul itself is like a natural spirit between heaven and earth, and at the same time it gathers the monk's own essence and spirit. It is the best bridge between the monk himself and heaven and earth. Therefore, after reaching the Nascent Soul stage, the influence of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth Utilization is no longer about pulling, but about sensing and controlling.”
Traction...control, Zhang Xiaosheng nodded slightly. To be more precise, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is like a credit card. Traction is your credit limit. How much you can borrow depends on whether your credit limit is high, and control is powerful. The credit card becomes a debit card, and the balance in the card is the total amount of spiritual energy of heaven and earth around you. How much you can withdraw depends on how much money is in the card.
After understanding the essential difference between Jindan and Yuanying, Zhang Xiaosheng asked again:
"In what specific ways does it manifest itself?"
"In terms of specific performance..." An Qiuhe thought carefully and said for a long time:
"There will be a qualitative leap in the mental power of the Nascent Soul stage. The consciousness formed by the condensed mental power can explore farther and wider places, and the recognition of breath will be more obvious. As long as the Nascent Soul stage recognizes your breath, unless It will take a long time to completely dissipate, otherwise the clues will be able to find you based on your breath."
"!!" Zhang Xiaosheng's face suddenly turned pale. He knew what he had overlooked!
He originally thought that he had feinted a shot to the south. If the people of Wandan Pavilion found out that he was escaping to the north, he would only be farther and farther away. Even if he left some breath, he would become untraceable with time and distance.
But he ignored the most important point, which was that the Yuan Ying stage's escape speed far exceeded his own, and the people from Wandan Pavilion did not necessarily have to wait until the finals were over to look for him. As long as you discover a little bit of your own aura and catch up, your escape speed will be several times that of yourself, and the distance you will fly over in the same time will be far beyond your own, and the aura left behind by you will become more and more obvious, until... you catch up. Three of them!
Moreover, the people from Wandan Pavilion may not necessarily chase south. If they disperse their troops and pursue them from all directions, although these people facing north may not be able to get their own breath on the jade slip, their appearance will definitely It has been leaked, and even the appearance of An Qiuhe and Mo Ziyuan has been leaked. He can still use the "Treasure of Heavenly Demon: Disguise Chapter" to adjust it, but An Qiuhe and Mo Ziyuan have no choice.
Thinking of this, Zhang Xiaosheng couldn't help but said hastily:
"Brother An, I feel very bad, let's speed up!" After saying that, he quickly activated the technique, and the speed suddenly increased by 30%.
"Ah...here, you won't be able to last long with such consumption!" An Qiuhe also started to speed up.
Although he has one more person with him, his level is also high and he is much faster than Zhang Xiaosheng. This has always been to take care of Zhang Xiaosheng's ability to restore aura and consume aura while escaping to achieve a balance, so that there will be no It consumes strength, but judging from Zhang Xiaosheng's speed at this time, I am afraid that at least 20% of the spiritual energy will be consumed in one hour.
After flying for another hour, Zhang Xiaosheng also felt the consumption of spiritual energy in his body. Although when he was flying away, the "Five Elements Divine Art" was slowly running at 50% speed, but it was not as consumed as An Qiuhe thought. But it's still less than 10%.
And since he discovered what he had ignored just now, the uneasiness in his heart has become stronger and stronger. Concerned, Zhang Xiaosheng said again:
"Brother An, I'm afraid we have to change direction." After saying that, he started to turn to the east and continued to fly towards the depths of the Yuanxian Mountains.
"You...you are looking for death!" An Qiuhe couldn't help but blurt out when he saw Zhang Xiaosheng flying directly into the depths of the mountains at such a fast speed, but he could only catch up quickly, and at the same time he kept persuading:
"Although this is a border area, there are already Jindan stage demon beasts. If you fly inward in such a big way, aren't you afraid of causing a swarm of demon beasts to chase you?"
"I hope my judgment is wrong." Zhang Xiaosheng did not explain more and continued to fly away. At the same time, his spiritual consciousness spread out, as if he was looking for something.
An Qiuhe muttered "madman" helplessly, and then continued to follow.
Another quarter of an hour later, Zhang Xiaosheng suddenly changed direction and fell quickly. An Qiuhe's consciousness quickly looked in front of Zhang Xiaosheng and discovered that there was a huge creature about one foot in size hidden in the forest below, with hair all over its body like barbs of steel needles. The demon wolf was also staring at them.
A steel-backed demon wolf that is very close to the middle stage of the Golden Elixir. It has both gold and earth attributes. The hair on its body is as hard as steel. It can shoot a large number of shots when attacking the enemy. It is also good at the earth attribute, so its defense is extremely strong, among the same level. There is no weakness. It is said that the wolf is like a tofu waist with a copper head and iron bones, but for the steel-backed demon wolf, perhaps the hardest thing is his waist and back.
"What are you going to do?" As soon as An Qiuhe said this, he saw Zhang Xiaosheng's hands quickly starting to make seals.
Four giant earth walls suddenly rose around the steel-backed demon wolf. The demon wolf's mouth was split open, and saliva dripped from the gap between its teeth on the ground. It made a "wuwu" sound in its throat. It grabbed the ground with its forelimbs and lay tightly on the ground with its hind legs. , not caring about the rising earth walls around it, it jumped suddenly, and the beast's wildness and superior status among its peers made it rush towards Zhang Xiaosheng.
However, the next moment, a giant flaming fist that was several times larger than the wolf's head appeared in the air and hit the wolf directly. The color of the fist continued to deepen, and the fire attribute aura around it suddenly It became turbulent, and the temperature of the entire space also rose a lot.
The demon wolf felt that the power of the giant flaming fist was not something he could resist, and his whole body trembled. Countless steel needles shot out from his back, attacking towards the giant flaming fist. However, as soon as it touched the fist, it turned into small yellow flowers. , and then disappeared.
Fire overcomes gold!
The demon wolf's eyes flashed with fear. He didn't expect that a human monk whose aura was not much different from his own could actually condense such a terrifying and powerful spell. Compared with the previous earth wall that seemed to rise high but actually contained little aura, Only then did I realize that I had been fooled!
It thought that this human monk was nothing more than that, and even the surrounding earth wall was so fragile. If the earth wall was not to encircle him, then why would he waste his spiritual energy?
Soon, Zhang Xiaosheng told it the answer.
The giant flaming fist hit the devil wolf's head. The wolf screamed, and was pushed toward the ground by the giant flaming fist, returning back to the four earth walls.
With a "boom", the whole earth was shaking. In the huge pit punched by the giant flame fist, the charred demon wolf lay inside, still struggling to stand up, but the ground under his feet kept shaking, making It couldn't stand firm, and at this time, the four earth walls fell inward at the same time. Several "boom" sounds were heard again. The earth walls completely buried the demon wolf, and the big hole was filled up.
The traces of the demon wolf disappeared again, but the next moment, tens of meters away from the big pit, five thick vines wrapped the escaped demon wolf out of the ground and arrived in front of Zhang Xiaosheng.
It turned out that the demon wolf used its last strength to escape through earth escape, but was captured by the vines that Zhang Xiaosheng had already ambushed. The demonic beast in earth escape itself had no room to move, so it was naturally unable to avoid the vines that suddenly grew underground. In addition, Shangmolang had just been punched by the flame giant and had broken several bones in his body. The last of his strength was used to perform the Earth Escape Technique. At this time, he had no power to resist.
The vines wrapped around the demon wolf were shining with golden light. If you look closely, they turned out to be many small metal thorns, which were stuck on the skin of the demon wolf and dug in slightly. Although it had not yet been punctured, as long as the demon wolf dared to struggle, The vines tightened and the small thorns pierced directly into its hard skin, and then the demon wolf struggled, leaving countless gashes all over its body.
The demon wolf was seriously injured at this time. He dared not move at all. His originally ferocious eyes became pitiful, as if he was begging for mercy. For the demon beast to cultivate to this point, without special opportunities, even a hundred years would not be long. Thinking that he was just Sensing the presence of a human monk, he came over to take a look relying on his strength. Unexpectedly, he was seriously injured and captured when he met.
This encounter seemed to have a lot of content, but in fact, it only took a few breaths. An Qiuhe's "be careful" words were still echoing around, and Zhang Xiaosheng had already solved the battle.
Both An Qiuhe and Mo Ziyuan's eyes widened, their mouths slightly opened, and they looked in disbelief at the demon wolf being carried behind by Zhang Xiaosheng using vines.
"This...is this solved?" An Qiuhe couldn't help but swallowed. With his strength, it was no problem to deal with this demon wolf, but he must not be so neat...
The steel-backed demon wolf has rough skin and thick flesh, and is extremely flexible. Not only can it shoot countless steel needles, but it can also jump with great force and use its claws and teeth to attack. It can also escape, attack, retreat or defend, making it very difficult to deal with. . It is difficult to kill it, but even harder to get rid of it. It is one of the several monsters that human monks are most afraid of encountering.
Unexpectedly, in just a few moves, he would be captured by Zhang Xiaosheng. Looking at the steel-backed demon wolf that had shrunk to the size of an ordinary wolf at this time, he looked miserable and looked a little pitiful.
"It's so pitiful..." Mo Ziyuan couldn't help but say.
"Wolf nature is cunning, you must not believe it. When you encounter a monster, you either run away or fight, but there is not so much sympathy." An Qiuhe said cautiously.
"Yes, uncle, I have learned the lesson." Mo Ziyuan shuddered, how could he feel sorry for that demon wolf just now? The sect master just fought with it... Well, saying that it was a fight was too flattering, and the sect master just beat it wildly. When it came, the demon wolf looked extremely ferocious at first!
"Be honest, I know you can understand." Zhang Xiaosheng kicked the magic wolf and clapped his hands. He was still very satisfied with his small test after breaking through to the fourth level of the golden elixir. Under the pull of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, the power of the spell Sure enough, it had become much stronger. Seeing that the demon wolf no longer pretended to be pitiful, Zhang Xiaosheng said again:
"I'm just lending you a loan. As long as you're honest and nothing happens for a while, I'll let you go. But if you're unlucky, there's nothing I can do about it."
When the demon wolf heard Zhang Xiaosheng said he could use it, he unconsciously clamped his tail. When he heard the next words, he let out another "oow". He didn't know if he was lamenting his fate or praying for nothing. This powerful man The human monk can keep his promise and let himself go.
Zhang Xiaosheng saw that the demon wolf became much more honest and said to An Qiuhe and Mo Ziyuan:
"It's not a good time to stay here. Let's continue on our way."
An Qiuhe nodded and grabbed Mo Ziyuan again, but when he saw Zhang Xiaosheng still flying towards the depths, he couldn't help shouting:
"Hey, hey, hey, don't deal with a demon wolf that just swelled up too much and flew inside. You are really looking for death."
Zhang Xiaosheng ignored An Qiuhe at all. The demon wolf tightly wrapped in vines at his feet was blown high by the oncoming wind. It looked extremely funny. An Qiuhe wanted to laugh, and stopped caring and quickly chased after Zhang Xiaosheng. .
