The unarmed old man jumped back in a hurry, trying to find a place to escape, but the cliff in front of him made him desperate. Seeing that the old man had nowhere to run, the black panther was willing to let the old man go. The black panther rushed forward like lightning, and an afterimage streaked across the sky. When the old man saw such a fast black panther attack, he could no longer dodge. He closed his eyes and thought in his mind: "Hey, my life is at stake!"
With a "plop", the old man who was waiting for death opened his eyes and saw a young man pulling out a short gun from the black panther's neck and piercing it. At this time, the ferocious black panther had died silently.
The exhausted old man collapsed on the ground with a pale face. He was overjoyed to see that he was saved. He hurriedly wanted to thank the young man, but before he could say anything, he saw the young man pulling him up and running towards the cliff.
This young man is Jining who is hiding on the edge of the cliff. He has not seen a human being for more than two years since he entered the mountain. This is the first time he has seen a human being in the past two years. He is just worried about a group of Steller Wasps. He was so afraid that he hesitated to come to the rescue.
But Jining suddenly thought that this black panther monster should be able to attract the attention of the hornet. It was also discovered that the reaction speed of the black panther that was seriously injured by the fireball was much slower. When the injured black panther wanted to tear the old man apart, its vigilance to the outside world weakened a lot. The other panther that flew over had already reached the level of sleeve arrow attack. The opportunity was too close to miss, so he shot an arrow at the black panther. When the sleeve arrow hit the black panther, he flew up and stabbed the black panther's neck with the broken short spear left by Brother Li Xiao. Jining felt that the short spear was inserted into the black panther's neck. Tofu is generally easy. Seeing that the black panther could be killed with one strike, before he could be happy, he quickly pulled the old man away from here.
Not long after they left Jining, a swarm of Steller's Bees appeared at the scene of the fight. After they saw the black panther's body. The swarm of hornet wasps were not relieved and swarmed up to bite the black panther's body. After eating most of the black panther's body, they circled around a few times before flying away.
Standing at a sunken rock on the mountainside a few hundred meters away, the old man looked at the swarm of hornet wasps with fear. After seeing the hornets flying away, the old man and Jining walked over to the black panther's body to examine it. They saw that most of the black panther's body had been eaten by the hornet swarm. However, the old man was a little surprised to see the black panther and hesitated to speak. Jining was a little surprised and asked the old man.
The old man saw that Jining didn't know much about monsters, so he said that the black panther should be regarded as a peak first-order monster or an early second-order monster. Monsters are full of treasures. The flesh and blood of monsters can be used by monks to strengthen their bodies. The skins of monsters can be used to refine armor or be used to make talismans; and the blood of monsters can be made into blood. Spirit pills can be used to feed spirit beasts. In addition, the blood of monster beasts mixed with cinnabar can be used to make talismans. The bones of monster beasts can be used as materials for some low-level spiritual weapons. However, low-level monsters do not have monster pills. The effect is even greater.
After what the old man said, Jining suddenly realized. He knew what the old man was thinking and said, "If this monster is found, let the old man deal with it. But just give me some of the monster's blood."
The old man nodded excitedly when he heard that. It didn't take long for the old man to finish disposing of the black panther's body. However, since the black panther had been dead for a while, there was not much blood in his body. The old man didn't know what method he used, so he collected some. Black Panther's blood, and then filled a small porcelain bottle with some monster blood to Jining.
After handing the small porcelain bottle to Jining, the old man found a few spiritual herbs from the medicine basket, put it in his mouth, and then meditated to restore his spiritual power.
One day later, in the deep forest of the Yulong Mountains, an old man and a young man carrying a medicine basket were walking under tall and dense trees. One of them was an old man with white beard and hair, and the other young man looked to be in his early twenties. .
These two people are the old men from Jining, and they are preparing to leave from the Yulong Mountains.
The old man was very grateful to Jining for saving his life and for gifting the corpse of the monster, and invited Jining to stay at the place where he lived and practiced. Jining thought that there were still almost two years left before the ten-year agreement, so he accepted the old man's invitation.
This old man's name is Meng Yu, and he is also a cultivator, but his cultivation level is not high, only the fifth level of Qi training. Jining felt a little emotional when he saw the old man's cultivation. This old man had worked hard all his life to reach the fifth level of Qi training. It seemed that the old man's cultivation path had come to an end!
Jining found out after the old man chatted on the road. It turns out that the old man found an elixir when he was collecting medicine deep in the Yulong Mountains many years ago. It was not mature at the time, so he marked it and waited for it to be picked when it matured. Some time ago, he estimated that the maturity period of the spiritual grass was approaching, so he went into the mountains to collect the medicine.
He didn't expect that collecting the medicine this time would be so dangerous. As soon as he picked the elixir, he saw a black panther that turned into a monster and chased him. What makes the old man depressed is that there were no traces of monsters when he made the mark. If there were traces of monsters at that time, he would never have come to die.
When the black panther saw that the elixir had disappeared, it flew into a rage and chased after it. The old man knew that he was no match for the black panther, so he tried his best to escape. He originally thought that the black panther would not pursue him after escaping for dozens of miles. Unexpectedly, the black panther persisted in pursuit, which made him even more unexpected. When they escaped, they were also chased by Steller's Venomous Wasps.
When he fled to Jining, where he was collecting medicinal herbs, the old man was exhausted. He originally thought he was going to die here, but he sensed traces of the monks nearby and ignited hope to escape in the direction of this person. He just followed the breath and ran to the edge of the cliff. And this person disappeared without a trace, and Jining himself knew what happened next.
While chatting along the way, Jining learned that the place where the old man lived was located in the State of Chen, which was a vassal state of the State of Jin.
Chen State is just to the east of the Yulong Mountains, and the position of the Yushan Mountains where it was originally is just on the other side of Jining entering the Yulong Mountains.
If we don't go from the Yulong Mountains, the Lu State to the Jin State still needs to pass through the Chu State in the middle, which distance will be further. Jining felt a sigh of relief in his heart. He had already covered tens of thousands of miles in more than half a year.
Old Man Meng was grateful to Jining for saving his life. He also knew that Jining was not deeply involved in the world, so he talked about some of his own experiences. Meng Yu's ancestor was originally a small and famous immortal cultivating family in several nearby countries.
As the spiritual energy of this world becomes thinner and thinner, there are fewer and fewer monks in the family. Although there are many people in the family, they are basically clansmen without spiritual roots. As of his generation, there are less than four or five capable cultivators among the capable clan.
Old Man Meng seems to have seen through the way of heaven. When it comes to cultivating immortals, it goes against heaven and is not tolerated by heaven. The decline and disappearance of cultivating families is a common thing in the world of cultivation.
The old man also learned from Jining's occasional words that Jining was a casual cultivator. The old man was very surprised to see that Jining was young and a casual cultivator, but could actually practice the seventh level of Qi refining. He also saw that he gave Jining a You can't see the small porcelain bottle behind it. I guess Jining must have a storage bag on his body. For such a young monk to have such a treasure, he may have concealed his life experience from him, or he may have had an unexpected encounter with the great immortal!
After the two of Jining walked along this road for almost half a month, the old man told Jining that he was almost at the place where he practiced. If he speeded up his pace, he could reach it in half a day, so the two used the "Wind Control Technique" to move towards Meng. Go to the old man's monastic residence.
Jining followed Old Man Meng around and came to a hidden hillside with lush trees. There was a small village in the hillside. There were about two to three hundred people living in the village. Old Man Meng said that all the mortals in this village are descendants of his family because they live here without spiritual roots.
After the old man made another large circle around the hill, Jining felt that the old man's circle seemed to be passing through a formation, and then he came to a hidden cliff. He took out a jade pendant from his waist and waved his sword. Suddenly thick fog rolled on the cliff. After the thick fog rolled, a faint path appeared in the cliff. The old man walked towards the path, and Jining felt like he was following him.
When Jining stepped on the road, he felt that the scenery in front of him changed, and a valley full of exotic flowers and plants appeared in front of him. Jining took a deep breath and felt that the air in the valley contained a slight aura. The valley is not small. A small river runs through the valley. A few small fish sometimes jump on the water in the crystal clear river. There are several pavilions with carved railings and jade on one side of the river, and several houses with white walls and black tiles are built not far from the river. On the other side of the river, a large piece of flat land is filled with many plants, and the breeze blows gently. As soon as you blow it, bursts of medicinal fragrance come to your face.
Jining sighed in surprise: "It's so beautiful! It's such a magical place!" After hearing this, Old Man Meng smiled slightly, with a hint of pride in his eyes. Follow the old man across the river and come to a pavilion with carved railings and jade walls. The old man said: "This is where several monks from their tribe live, but now he and his granddaughter live in the valley! There are several low houses with white walls and black tiles that are inhabited by tribesmen who have no spiritual roots. , these tribesmen mainly help them grow medicinal herbs and take care of their daily life!"
"Grandpa" suddenly a childish voice sounded. At this moment, a thin little girl of about eleven or twelve years old with a fair face and bright eyes ran out of the pavilion. The little girl saw a stranger suddenly appeared in the valley, and her face showed panic. !
When the old man saw him, the little girl said dotingly: "Xiaoyun, come here and see Mr. Jining!" The little girl ran to the old man without saying a word, holding his hand tightly and refusing to let go.
The old man led Jining out of the living room, and soon his tribe brought some fruits similar to peaches to Jining. Seeing that Guozi's face was less nervous, the little girl secretly took a few fruits and slipped away. Under the kindness of Old Man Meng, Jining picked up a fruit and took a bite. The sweet fragrance instantly filled the lips, teeth and tongue, and a hint of coolness followed the exercise circuit and gathered in the Dantian.
"Hey" Jining was shocked! Old Man Meng smiled and said: "This is a green peach fruit. It is a low-level spiritual fruit. It is one of the specialties of my small family of immortal cultivators. Eating this fruit regularly is also slightly beneficial to cultivation!"
Seeing what Old Man Meng said, Jining was not polite and ate the peach fruit too.
Old Man Meng asked his tribesmen to prepare meals again, and not long after, several tribesmen brought a table of sumptuous meals!
