On the residual light peak,
The Tianyun Sect's encirclement and suppression team of several thousand people drove the last thousand or so Man-Faced Demon Spiders to the edge of the cliff.
"Palace Master, the beasts have no way to retreat. When will we attack them?"
An elder walked through the crowd and stepped forward to ask.
"No need, the cost of killing him is too high. You must know that in a battle with a trapped beast, you still have to fight. Send the order and set the mountain on fire!"
Shui Gongqing looked up at the high mountains and dense forests and examined them.
"Yes!" The old man ordered to retreat.
After a while, at the foot of the mountain, the fire formed a long and wide snake, burning towards the top of the mountain with the help of the mountain wind.
The encirclement and suppression team kept a certain distance from the fire line and moved upwards with the fire line.
The dark mountain top seemed as majestic as a fire dragon wrapped around it.
In the sea of fire, dry firewood and dead wood burned with crackling sounds.
With no way out, the demon spiders were devoured by the fire dragon.
Zhizhizhi...,
From time to time, the screams of demon spiders were heard coming from the sea of fire.
One after another, demon spiders covered in fire jumped out in panic.
Seeing this, the disciple who had been waiting outside the line of fire stepped forward without saying a word, drew his sword and struck.
The demon spider had just jumped out of the sea of fire and died under the sharp blade of cold light before it could escape.
Swish, brush, brush...
Swords follow one after another...
Qiye still walked at the end of the team to clean up the battlefield.
He did not hesitate to put the burned corpse of the demon spider into the talisman bag.
So far, he has collected nearly two thousand corpses of demon spiders.
Most of these corpses were babies, and there were only about a hundred corpses of adult demon spiders.
However, the demon core in the adult demon spider's body has been removed.
Low-level monsters will only condense the magic core in their bodies when they reach adulthood.
The magic core is the foundation of Warcraft cultivation, equivalent to the spiritual world of human monks.
The magic core is also something that alchemists love very much.
Like the demon pill, it is the most important container in the process of condensing the pill.
Anyway, Qiye just needs the flesh and blood of the demon spider corpse to feed his demon pet, and it doesn't matter whether he has a demon core or not.
Just as he was immersed in picking it up, a huge black shadow jumped out of the sea of fire.
"Flash! It's the Spider King!"
An elder who was always paying attention to the situation said with sharp eyes.
However, before the disciples could react, Shui Gongqing was already one step ahead. A shadow rushed forward, then rose up from the ground, and struck it with a stick.
Boo!
The Demon Spider King, who was about to pounce on the crowd in mid-air, had no time to dodge. The golden staff landed on its head as fast as lightning, and its head was smashed to pieces on the spot.
Everyone did not expect that the Demon Spider King, who was equivalent to a 'late fighting soul level', was beaten to death by the palace master with a powerful stick and fell in the air as soon as he appeared.
It's so fast!
In fact, Shui Gongqing had already realized the existence of the Spider King when he took in the mutant spider queen.
Because only a pair of spider kings and queens have such a powerful breeding ability.
In a short period of time, tens of thousands of little cubs are born, and these cubs cannibalize each other as they grow, with only half of the cubs surviving.
It's just that this time, after encountering a mutated spider queen, her breeding ability exceeded expectations.
Originally, Shui Gongqing still had some expectations for Spider King.
If the Spider King is also a mutated monster, then this encirclement and suppression can be considered a big gain.
He guessed that the Spider King must be hiding somewhere, so he always paid attention to the movements in the sea of fire.
It's a pity that the last one who showed up was just the ordinary Spider King.
After killing the Spider King, the remaining shrimp soldiers and crab generals will pose no threat.
Throw away the remaining monster blood on the golden staff,
Shui Gongqing ordered:
"Leave some core disciples and continue cleaning up. The rest should return to the sect..."
This place is still a long way from the sect. If the battle line is too long, if something unexpected happens, it will be impossible to rush to help.
Now, the encirclement and suppression plan has almost been successfully completed.
It's time to return to the clan...
The order was passed to each team, and everyone began to evacuate in an orderly manner.
Qiye raised his head and glanced at the fire that was still burning on the mountainside.
He sighed: If he didn't retreat, he could still pick up another hundred and eighty monster beast corpses.
…
It was late at night when we returned to the sect.
After a night of bloody fighting, all the disciples were mentally exhausted. The few disciples who survived the disaster were even more panic-stricken.
Everyone returned to their dormitories to digest the unrest of the night.
After Qiye said a brief farewell to Yan Wan and the others, he quickly returned to the hut in the Back Yam Garden.
After entering the room, he couldn't wait to lock the door, put a spiritual restriction on it, and only released two small centipedes after taking all precautions.
The little ones were trapped in the secret realm for several days, and they were really exhausted.
As soon as they are released, they will happily crawl around, sometimes climbing up the eaves and beams, sometimes sliding under the bed and table. If the doors and windows are not locked, I am afraid they will rush out without hesitation.
"Okay, okay... come here quickly and see what I brought back for you."
Qiye rubbed his hands excitedly and called.
The two little centipedes came to their owner with unfulfilled interest. They raised their front bodies and followed Qiye's arms, sniffing them as if they were human.
"Don't worry...here, this is for you, this is for you..."
Without any hesitation, Qiye pulled out two legs as long as lamb legs from the talisman bag and threw them to them.
Smelling the smell of fresh blood, the two little centipedes bit it excitedly, holding it in their mouths and chewing it.
Crunchy...
Seeing the little ones eating with gusto, Qiye held her chin and sighed:
"Eat, eat, eat enough, grow up quickly. From now on, little master, I will count on you two to help me..."
The two little centipedes were only fed some dried meat before, and then they were in a semi-dormant state in the secret realm, so they didn't consume much.
Now it's still just over one meter long and as thick as an arm. If you look closely, you will see that it is completely white and its carapace is as bright as new, making it look like a beautiful piece of art.
There is no sign of the ferocious appearance of the adult tooth-buried centipede at all. If I hadn't seen the appearance of the old centipede, I would have been deceived by the "harmless" appearance of these two guys.
Qiye estimate:
At present, the strength of the two little guys is probably equivalent to the "elementary second and third dan" levels.
Although the Buried Tooth Centipede belongs to the 'Fifth Level Demonic Beast', its strength is equivalent to the human race's 'War Spirit Level'.
But the little centipede, which was just born, was only about the "elementary level" in strength, at most it was stronger than ordinary mortals.
In addition, the pure white appearance of the cub is also a self-protective color.
Under normal circumstances, tooth-burial centipede cubs in the wild will naturally be guarded by adult mother centipedes.
Although the white color is very conspicuous and difficult to hide, it is a warning to other animals around it, warning other species not to approach, and that there is a female animal nearby to guard it.
However, everything has pros and cons.
If the mother centipede dies, then white becomes the revealing color of the baby centipede.
If it wants to survive in a jungle full of predators, the little centipede has to hide itself as much as possible to avoid disaster.
This also makes the Buried Tooth Centipede far more concealed than other monsters of the same level.
Moreover, the eye-catching white color will also force them to hone their hunting characteristics of elusiveness and fatal blow when hunting.
After the two small centipedes devoured the demon spider's legs, Qiye put them back into the secret realm.
After a few days of busy work, I finally got the food for the demon pet.
After letting go of his worries, he stretched his waist a little sleepily, then fell on the bed and fell asleep...
next day
A paper crane flew into the medicine garden and landed in front of the hut.
"It turns out that Elder Kong wants to see me..."
Qiye opened it and looked a little surprised.
I haven't had much contact with Elder Kong, and I just returned to the sect last night. Why am I so anxious to see me today?
Could it be him who discovered something?
Qiye had to think more.
However, since Elder Kong summoned him, how could he not go?
Without much delay, Qiye quickly and easily arranged his outfit and immediately rushed to Tianyun Peak.
According to the sect rules, Qiye, as an outer disciple, is not qualified to enter Tianyun Peak, which only core disciples can enter.
However, it would be different if the elders of Tianyun Peak summoned him.
Arriving at the gate of Tianyun Peak Mountain, Qiye handed over Elder Kong's letter.
The gatekeeper disciple let him pass without any difficulty and sent someone to guide him.
Walking into Tianyun Peak, Qiye took a deep breath, and a cool and rich spiritual energy penetrated deep into his lungs, which made him feel so comfortable.
The spiritual energy here is the strongest in the entire Tianyun Sect. It can be said that one day of practice here is equivalent to five days of practice at Yanyue Peak, the inner gate, and ten days of practice at Baizhang Peak, the outer gate.
The gap is not big...
"No wonder the disciples of the sect want to enter Tianyun Peak to practice... This is simply the holy land of practice for the entire sect. It is even more powerful than the outer sect's spirit gathering array."
Qiye tutted in a low voice.
While looking around curiously, he greedily sucked in the spiritual energy. Of course, he followed the lead brother and did not dare to make any big moves.
Climb all the way up the stairs and arrive in front of a magnificent palace.
Huzong Hall
The four golden characters exude an indescribable sacred aura, which is awe-inspiring.
"Please!" Brother Guiding guided the way.
"Thank you, senior brother." Qiye cupped his hands and stepped into the hall cautiously with some apprehension.
After passing through the lintels, he walked into a huge hall and saw Elder Kong standing in front of the hall, concentrating on reading the book in his hand.
Qiye hurriedly leaned over and saluted.
"Disciple Ah Qi, I have met Elder Kong..."
