Chapter 209 Demon Hunting King (65k big chapter)
Chapter 209 Demon Hunting King (6.5k big chapter)
Two months later.
Ten Thousand Demon Mountains, Jinpeng Demon Veins.
The group of people covered their bodies, but they moved quickly, covering a distance of hundreds of meters in almost the blink of an eye.
Half an hour later.
The group of people stopped and looked ahead at a mountain covered with miasma and all kinds of poisonous substances covered with trees and vines.
"This is it, Zhentian Peak, the place where Fushan Demon King usually practices. This place has been occupied by Fushan Demon King for many years, and it has long been filled with all kinds of poisonous gas. No matter whether it is a human or an animal, after stepping in, it will be melted by the poisonous gas within a few moments. Into a pile of bones.
However, the Fushan Demon King is only a third-level low-grade demon king, which is equivalent to the early stage of the Golden Elixir. We will work together to defeat him quickly. "
The person who spoke was Wan Tianqiu. As a beast master, he had a deep understanding of the habits of various monsters. Therefore, even if he was not the strongest, under Yu Xian's arrangement, he became the leader of this temporary monster hunting team. .
"no problem."
Qi Chunshen followed the group of people and agreed with the crowd, but felt quite uneasy in his heart.
After all, two months ago he was just a foundation-building monk waiting for his end of life to come.
As a result, I accidentally met the senior Canglang in front of me, and now the fellow Taoist Canglang had an opportunity to join the Datong Association.
All he knew about the Datong Association came from the introduction of fellow Taoist Canglang, and he knew that this was a very ancient and powerful organization.
He was excited and longing for it, this was the legendary adventure.
As expected, he quickly broke through the Golden Elixir with the help of Datonghui.
As a result, he was not happy for two hours before he was forced to hand over the power of his soul. From then on, his life and death were controlled by others.
Fortunately, Datong Club gave him hope to make a contribution and regain his freedom.
According to Fellow Daoist Canglang, he is not yet a formal member of the Datong Association, at most he is only a preliminary member.
Only when he and Datong Hui are not in debt can he have the freedom to choose to formally join or withdraw.
Of course, by then, his soul power will definitely be returned.
At this moment, Qi Chunshen could no longer tell whether what Fellow Daoist Canglang said was true or false.
After he handed over the power of his soul, all his beautiful illusions about the Great Harmony were almost shattered.
However, this pirate ship has already been boarded, and it is not up to him to make the choice.
All he could do was believe.
After all, Fellow Taoist Canglang gave him an accurate number - one thousand meritorious deeds!
As long as you complete the task for Huizhong, you can get merit points. Once you collect a thousand merit points, Huizhong's kindness for helping him break through the golden elixir will be repaid in full.
Today is his first mission - to hunt down a demon king, and return the loot along the way to the public, worth a hundred merits.
In other words, in theory, if he hunts the ten-headed demon king, he can regain his freedom.
However, anyone who can be called a demon king must have awakened the magical power of blood, which is equivalent to the Jindan master who has inscribed the magical power of the golden elixir. He is not considered weak among the golden elixir monks.
He, a fake alchemy monk, came to arm-wrestle with the Demon King, but he was still on someone else's territory. He was like an old man eating arsenic because he thought he had a long life.
Fortunately, he was not alone in this action.
In addition to him, there are fellow Taoist Canglang and fellow Taoist Baoyuan who are known as senior members of the Datong Association.
There is another reserve member like him, a young man who looks to be in his twenties, a fake alchemy monk codenamed Lao Gui.
According to his own introduction, he was originally a foundation-building casual cultivator under the rule of Wangshu Fucheng. He had no family concerns and had been preparing for the golden elixir breakthrough for these years.
Later, after being introduced by a mysterious person, I learned about the purpose of the Datong Association, and came here with the idea of giving it a try.
He didn't have much resistance to dedicating his soul power.
He believes that if you want to get something, you have to pay a price.
How many people try their best but have no chance.
Qi Chunshen did not comment on his words, but seeing that his side had the combat power of four golden elixirs, he felt relieved.
Datong would spend a precious heretic golden elixir to help him break through, so he couldn't let his life go in vain, right?
soon.
The group of people took antidote pills to temporarily block the miasma of the jungle, and then each used breath-condensing techniques to get into the forest.
Close, close...
Qi Chunshen held his breath unconsciously, already feeling the huge demonic aura of Fushan Demon King filling the mountain.
He did not use his spiritual consciousness to alert the enemy.
Although the demon clan is not good at the power of spiritual consciousness, at their level, they still have basic sensing ability.
Therefore, it is best to rely only on your own eyesight, and use your peripheral vision, and it is best not to have any malicious intent or murderous intent.
After all, he is an experienced practitioner who has been practicing for more than a hundred years, so he still has some experience.
Soon, he saw Fushan Demon King lying on the top of the mountain breathing spiritual energy.
As the name suggests, the Fushan Demon King really got its name from the fact that it was a big toad lying on the mountain.
Fushan Demon King is about ten feet tall, lying there like a small palace.
Its abdomen bulged one after another, and behind it was a large, colorful lump. As it puffed and puffed, traces of poisonous gas emerged from the lump, and then merged into the poisonous gas of the entire mountain.
How to do?
Qi Chunshen looked at the great master in his mind, Fellow Daoist Canglang.
He has no experience in dealing with the Demon King.
Cang Lang flipped his hand, and a palm-sized formation disk appeared. He looked at the violent ape beside him, then muttered something, and pressed the formation disk into the void.
The array plate blends into the void without any hindrance.
Then the formation flags were thrown out one after another, all of which had the same characteristics as the formation disk, but did not produce the slightest fluctuation of spiritual energy.
Qi Chunshen couldn't help but feel awe in his heart.
After all, he has been practicing for more than a hundred years. He is not only proficient in the various arts of cultivating immortals, but also has a little dabble in them.
As far as he knew, any formation will definitely interact with the surrounding environment, making the formation blend into the heaven and earth. This is the basis for establishing the formation.
But the technique used by Fellow Daoist Canglang just now was miraculous. He was able to set up the formation without any fluctuations, as if it was natural, without any pyrotechnics.
It is indeed an ancient organization that has been passed down for thousands of years, and its actions are extraordinary.
When Qi Chunshen appeared, three formations had been deployed one after another, and wisps of white mist came out of the void, forcibly isolating the poisonous gas breathed out by Fushan Demon King.
At this time, Fushan Demon King finally realized something was wrong.
Its big eyes suddenly opened, and it made a croaking sound. The air shook violently, and a wisp of ripples visible to the naked eye spread out from under its body, which turned out to be a sonic attack.
"who?!"
Fushan Demon King speaks human words.
"superior!"
Wan Tianqiu made a quick decision and made a secret in his hand. A series of mist locks came out like poisonous snakes, and the four figures disappeared directly into the void.
Qi Chunshen summoned a green flying sword, named Chunshen Sword, which was only a top-grade spiritual weapon.
It had only been two months since he had broken through the fake elixir realm, and he didn't have the time or capital to replace himself with a magic weapon.
But stimulated by the magic power of the golden elixir, this high-grade spiritual weapon still exerted great power.
The flying sword turned into a rainbow and penetrated straight into the back of Fushan Demon King.
Qi Chunshen's consciousness clearly felt stagnant. The Fushan Demon King's skin was like silk made from heavenly silk. It looked thin and smooth, but was actually very tough.
He tried his best to make a small incision.
Green pus and blood shot out and hit the ground, corroding blood pits as big as basins.
"The blood is poisonous, don't fight with it in close combat!"
Qi Chunshen shouted loudly and ordered the flying sword to be withdrawn.
With his strength, he would not dare to confront Fushan Demon King. Naturally, he would take the opportunity to leave the battlefield and wait for the opportunity to attack again.
However, he suddenly stopped moving, because Fushan Demon King's attention didn't seem to be on him at all.
After it was injured, it just croaked manically.
The sound waves were like knives, splitting the air, but they could not tear apart the invisible white mist. The chains of mist were endless and endless, constantly beating on the Fushan Demon King like tentacles.
"It can't see me?"
An idea came to Qi Chunshen's mind, and then he noticed the mist that had been surrounding him.
I originally thought it was the formation's own protection.
Now it seems that it actually has the effect of covering up the induction. He and Fushan Demon King are only a hundred feet apart, but Fushan Demon King seems to be unable to see him.
"hiss……"
Qi Chunshen secretly took a deep breath and was once again amazed by this miraculous formation, and at the same time, he felt infinite excitement rising in his heart.
Since Fushan Demon King can't see him, don't blame him for being ruthless.
The sword light differentiates!
Qi Chunshen made a finger gesture with his hands, and with great consciousness, Chun Shen's sword, which was like a snake swimming in mid-air, transformed into twelve, and a rain of swords fell down.
Poof! !
Bloody holes as big as a palm burst out from Fushan Demon King's back.
Although these blood holes are insignificant compared to the size of Fushan Demon King, they are not large enough.
And he wasn't the only one to attack.
In the mist, three more Jindan masters attacked one after another, making the Fushan Demon King croak and scream.
Whenever it attempts to forcibly break through the formation, not only does the fog lock become more intense, but the intensity of the attacks from all around it suddenly soars.
Qi Chunshen launched a series of attacks and found that Fushan Demon King could only be helpless and furious. He suddenly felt confident. He had never fought such a rich battle.
This is not asking him to work hard, it is clearly a mission for him.
It turned out that he had misunderstood Datonghui.
This is simply a harmonious and loving organization.
Qi Chunshen's gloom over the past few days was swept away. He was like a general who was standing on horseback with his sword drawn and the mana in his body surged wildly, with no intention of saving at all.
Whoosh whoosh! ! !
Under the control of his spiritual consciousness, the flying sword was like the most precise scalpel, dismembering Fushan Demon King bit by bit.
In addition, there is the demon wolf soul summoned by fellow Taoist Canglang. Although its strength is only at the level of foundation building, it cannot withstand the power. Every bite it bites on Fushan Demon King will bring out a piece of flesh.
The most important thing is that even if the demon soul is corroded by the poisonous blood of Fushan Demon King, it will soon give birth to a new one.
Taoist fellow Baoyuan seems to be an individual cultivator, and large rocks of the same height are blasted out of the mist like cannonballs.
Even a rough-skinned monster like Fushan Demon King was beaten until his eyes bulged.
The last fellow Taoist Old Turtle took out a turtle shell magic weapon.
That's right, it's not a spiritual weapon, but a magic weapon!
Qi Chunshen clearly felt the powerful spirituality emanating from the turtle shell in his hand, which was the biggest difference between magic weapons and magic weapons.
The magic weapon carries mana, and the spiritual weapon burns spiritual magic. The magic weapon has its own spirituality, has a certain role in automatically protecting the master, and can stimulate spiritual magic on its own.
At this moment, the tortoise shell magic weapon sprouted a phantom of a tortoise head. A pair of wise eyes stared at Fushan Demon King, and spiritual weapons like copper coins came out of his mouth.
This spiritual weapon seemed to have no direct damage ability, but every time the copper coin crossed Fushan Demon King's body, Qi Chunshen felt that his flying sword could more easily break through Fushan Demon King's demonic defense and cut into the flesh.
This copper coin can actually reduce the power of demons and have the ability to break magic!
Qi Chunshen glanced around and silently compared, and found that he seemed to be the weakest person in the four-person team.
"You human monks have invaded our demon mountain range. Kill me today. The demon emperor will avenge me in the future!"
Fushan Demon King jumped up with all his strength, his body briefly stagnating in the air, and the bumps on his back lit up one by one, and then exploded like fireworks, and the black poisonous smoke instantly filled the entire formation space.
"Use your killing move and finish it off quickly!"
Wan Tianqiu's expression changed. As the host of the Fog Prison Array, he felt that the energy of the spirit stones on the array was being consumed rapidly.
If this continues, even if Fushan Demon King can be killed, the forty-eight high-grade spiritual stones on the formation plate will soon be on the verge of being scrapped.
Thinking of the young master's explanation, Wan Tianqiu did not dare to delay any longer.
If four golden elixirs were deployed to kill a demon king and nearly half a million spirit stones were spent, the young master would kill him.
After all, the market price of a third-level demon pill is only one million spirit stones.
Roar!
Qi Chunshen was still thinking when he heard a roar and saw a silver-white giant ape like a hill looking up to the sky and roaring, making a deafening roar, and the top of its hair quickly turned blood red.
Peng!
The giant ape jumped up in the air and grabbed the Fushan Demon King in mid-air. Regardless of the fact that his palms were corroded and melted by the poisonous blood, he forcefully pulled him down and threw him on the Zhentian Peak.
A huge broken wall suddenly rolled down the cliff.
Then an iron-backed gray wolf king was seen jumping out of the fog, slashing the Fushan Demon King's belly with one claw, and the red, white and yellow parts fell to the ground.
"Come die!"
The Cang Wolf King pierced his heart with his sharp claws, and actually took out a green demon pill.
The corpse of the Fushan Demon King fell to the ground with a cries of death.
Qi Chunshen came to his senses and found that the battle was over.
"Find Fushan Demon King's cave and quickly clean up the battlefield."
The Cang Wolf King shrank in size and turned into a human form. He put the big toad on the ground into a large storage bag prepared in advance. He took out the formation plate and gave instructions to the others.
"good."
Qi Chunshen released his spiritual consciousness and soon found the cave of Fushan Demon King with everyone. It was a wet cave filled with poisonous substances, many poisonous flowers and poisonous weeds, and several storage bags.
They didn't let go of any of these things, they packed them up and took them away.
Until he left Zhentian Peak, Qi Chunshen still felt as if he was in a dream. He looked back and saw that the smoke and dust raised by the falling cliff were still there.
Who would have thought that a demon king would have died in such a short period of time.
When everyone leaves.
A faint figure emerged from the air, and it turned out to be Yu Xian who was secretly holding the battle.
As a demon hunting team that he had spent all his money to build, he was not so ambitious that he didn't care about anything. He had to pay attention to it the first time and recover the cost first.
Fortunately, the results were far from satisfactory.
Although the power of the third-order formation disk is strong, and it incorporates his magical power to deceive the sky, it can be called unpredictable, but the energy consumption is still too high.
Once the battle lasts for a long time, the cost of the formation disk will be heartbreaking.
If the Demon King escapes again, he will be in trouble.
In addition, the two new newcomers are suspected of trying to fish in the water. If this continues, the Heretic Golden Pill will be purely a benefit to them.
But only when you see the problem can you solve it.
I thought about it for a while, then my figure was hidden in the wind and slowly dissipated.
As for the turmoil caused by the death of Demon King Fushan, there is no need to worry about it for the time being.
Anyway, with the Fog Prison Formation here, all traces have been eliminated. As long as the body of Fushan Demon King is not seen for a day, who dares to say that it is dead.
This kind of wild demon king has no means of leaving the soul lamp behind.
But after a large number of demon kings disappeared for no reason, it was time to attract the attention of the Jinpeng Demon King.
But if he has the ability, he will launch a wave of beasts to retaliate. It just depends on whether Xuanyang Sect can attack it or not.
…
But it was said that after a group of people hunted down the Fushan Demon King, they fled three hundred miles away and reached the edge of the demon vein.
A place in the forest.
Qi Chunshen honestly handed over the trophies he had just collected from the Demon King's Cave in Fushan, including some poisonous flowers and poisonous weeds, and some ores and spiritual stones.
Fushan Demon King is not just a man who drinks blood, but also makes deals with human monks.
For example, the former cultivator had some friendship with Fushan Demon King, and this friendship naturally came from transactions.
Fushan Demon King exchanged the natural resources in the demon veins for human monks' elixirs, magic weapons, and even spiritual stones.
But now these things have become the spoils of others.
Wan Tianqiu collected the trophies from everyone one by one, thought to himself, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Although Fushan Demon King is a little poor, it is not a problem to exchange these miscellaneous things for more than a million spirit stones.
There are also several treasures that even he can't read.
For example, one of the glowing green ores was bright in color, as heavy as black iron, difficult to melt with alchemy fire, and had strong toxicity that could corrode even his magic power.
It is undoubtedly a treasure.
Coupled with the corpse of Fushan Demon King, this is a third-level monster, and its whole body is full of treasures. Even if the flesh and blood contains toxins, it can still be sold for a good price.
After all, it was calculated that Fushan Demon King alone had brought them nearly three million spiritual stones in revenue, not counting those treasures whose value was temporarily inestimable.
After counting the treasures one by one, Wan Tianqiu nodded with satisfaction towards Qi Chunshen and Laogui.
"Very good, you didn't keep any trophies secretly. Otherwise, even if I have some friendship with you, I wouldn't be able to accommodate you."
Qi Chunshen smiled.
He had indeed been careful. After all, this was the inheritance of the Demon King. For him who was just a foundation-building monk not long ago, no matter what it was, it was worth his risk.
But after careful consideration, he decided to be an honest man.
This is the first mission. If his hands and feet are not clean, it will be difficult to gain trust in the future.
The result of not being trusted is very likely to be used as cannon fodder in the next mission.
He didn't take his first mission lightly.
As a result, Wan Tianqiu snorted coldly:
"But you haven't done a good enough job. Why did you freeze when I asked you to use your killing move?
If the Fushan Demon King had not been exhausted at that time and had no strength to resist, fellow Taoist Baoyuan and I might not be able to kill it on the spot even if we work together.
Once it escapes, do you know what the consequences will be? "
Qi Chunshen's expression changed, and another monk codenamed Lao Gui opened his mouth, as if he wanted to explain, but still kept silent.
"So as a warning, half of your rewards will be deducted from this mission."
Wan Tianqiu, who had just received someone's instruction, said coldly:
"Are you dissatisfied?"
"No."
The two replied in unison.
"Okay, since you have completed the first assessment task given to you in the meeting, according to the rules, you have a year's rest.
Of course, you can also choose not to rest and continue hunting monsters.
Each third-level demon pill is worth one hundred merit points and is a must-have for submitting tasks. In addition, the trophies you obtain along the way can also be exchanged for merit points.
But Taoist Brother Baoyuan and I will no longer assist you, and all tasks must be completed by your own abilities.
Of course, you can also apply for help from me and Taoist fellow Bao Yuan, as well as props used during the mission.
For example, the sky-shielding and earth-shielding formation I used before.
It just needs to deduct the corresponding merit points. "
Wan Tianqiu continued to add rules.
Qi Chunshen's face turned bitter, and he thought that it was not that simple.
The first mission is to let them learn a lot and give them benefits.
In this way, he regretted more and more that he did not obey the order and take action in time, and wasted fifty meritorious deeds.
The market price of the third-level demon elixir is one million spiritual stones, which is worth one hundred meritorious deeds, which means he just gave up half a million spiritual stones.
All the spiritual stones he has consumed so far in his practice are less than this amount.
After such a conversion, Qi Chunshen was a little heartbroken and breathless.
In addition, he finally understood what a huge number one thousand meritorious deeds was.
In order to break through the fake elixir realm, he unexpectedly owed a huge sum of 10 million spiritual stones without knowing it!
Sure enough, there is no such thing as a free lunch.
He swallowed, his feet were a little unsteady, and he looked at the future in darkness. He didn't know how many years it would take to pay off the debt.
But suddenly I heard the old turtle beside me calmly ask:
"I wonder how much Daoist Fellow Cang Lang and Fellow Daoist Bao Yuan are worth? And the great formation that covers the sky and the earth is a strange formation that I have never heard of before. If I apply, how many merit points are needed?"
Wan Tianqiu glanced at Old Turtle appreciatively and said:
"Both Daoist Bao Yuan and I have fifty merit points per shot, and the merit point used once to cover the sky and the earth is one merit point, but the condition of use is that after each use, enough spirit needs to be replenished for the formation plate. stone.
By the way, there are a total of forty-eight high-grade spiritual stones inlaid on the array plate. "
Qi Chunshen's vision went dark again.
Isn’t this a lie?
He, a fake alchemy monk, would definitely not be able to deal with the Demon King. He would at least have to ask a fellow disciple to take action, and who knows who can use the large formation that covers the sky and the earth, it must be indispensable.
Forty-eight high-grade spiritual stones are forty-eight meritorious deeds.
In other words, the cost of one of his missions alone requires ninety-nine meritorious deeds.
Even if he completes the mission, the final reward will only be a meritorious service!
A meritorious service!
If he wanted to collect a thousand meritorious deeds, he would have to complete a thousand missions.
But Lao Gui continued to ask calmly: "I wonder if there are other props that can be borrowed during the meeting, and what is the price?"
Wan Tianqiu shook his head and said: "I'm sorry, you are only reserve members. There are not many props you can apply for. These are the only ones for now."
He wanted to be more prepared, but his young master was not prepared.
Old Turtle still looked calm, nodded and said: "I have no problem. When can the next mission start?"
Wan Tianqiu smiled: "You can do it anytime."
The old turtle said: "I want to apply for help from Taoist Fellow Bao Yuan and the Heaven-Shielding Formation, but I still have one meritorious achievement left."
Wan Tianqiu said with a smile: "No problem. We care about newcomers in the meeting. There is no problem in borrowing a merit point on credit."
The old turtle said: "Thank you, fellow Taoist."
After that, he looked at Baoyuan and said, "Fellow Taoist Baoyuan, can we make an appointment in three days?"
Baoyuan, also known as Yang Hou said: "No problem."
"Three days from now, we'll still be here, I'm waiting for fellow Taoist."
After saying that, the old turtle walked away gracefully.
Wan Tianqiu looked at Qi Chunshen: "What are your plans, fellow Daoist Qi? Do you want to go on a mission immediately or take a year's rest?"
Qi Chunshen said with a dejected look on his face: "Mission? Do I still have hope of getting enough merit points?"
Wan Tianqiu couldn't help but shook his head and said: "Fellow Daoist Qi, if there is no chance, why would that fellow Taoist Old Turtle be so impatient to start his second mission?"
Qi Chunsheng said helplessly: "Who knows what he thinks."
Wan Tianqiu sighed, somewhat hating that iron cannot make steel:
"Fellow Daoist Qi, since you are the first member I introduce to the association here, I will give you another message.
The demon elixir is worth one hundred merit points, but the trophies taken along the way can also be exchanged for merit points. "
"Um?!"
Qi Chunshen woke up from a dream and remembered the Fushan Demon King's trophies that Wan Tianqiu had deliberately displayed in front of him just now.
He immediately became energetic.
"Fellow Daoist Canglang, I have a mission to do!"
