Chapter 37 Monsters attack the island
Time flies, two months have passed in the blink of an eye.
Today is the day when the two teams rotate. At the entrance of the mine, in addition to Luo Zhang and the first team, the second team led by Pang Hu also gathered here, and Lin Feng stood in the middle.
Qin Tian followed behind everyone and walked out of the mine, his expression as calm as ever.
After more than three years of hard training, the young boy at the beginning is gradually losing his immaturity, and his ordinary face has become more calm.
After the mine monitoring disciples arrived, they came forward one by one to take out their monthly task quota. When it was Qin Tian's turn, it was naturally 250 pieces of cloud pattern ore, which made Luo Zhang frown, but he didn't say much. After all, as long as the task was completed, it would be fine.
Not long after, all the ores were counted, and there were more than 3,000 pieces, all of which were registered. Together with the amount accumulated in the previous two months, they were all taken away by Lin Feng and handed over to the deacon for safekeeping.
Then Lin Feng announced the rotation, and Qin Tian and others were led by Luo Zhang to fly out of the valley.
The width of the Gravel Island is hundreds of miles. At Lin Feng's request, the garrison patrol disciples need to spread out around the entire island to guard against any misconduct by the Blood Spirit Demon Sect.
The so-called monster attack on the island is when the tide rises at night, the monsters in the water use the power of the waves to attack the garrison patrol disciples.
Therefore, the first team flew around the Gravel Island at low altitude. Under Luo Zhang's order, some people divided the garrison area from time to time and left the team.
Not long after, at Luo Zhang's signal, Qin Tian divided a beach.
After the latter landed, he began to look at the garrison area.
The beach was covered with black reefs of different sizes, but the terrain was extremely flat. If there was a monster attack on this terrain, it would be extremely difficult to defend.
Qin Tian frowned, looked around, and came to the back of a reef several feet high. After setting up a ban, he planned to garrison there.
At night, Qin Tian was sitting cross-legged under the cover of the ban, releasing his divine consciousness to alert the surroundings while slowly refining and purifying the "cloud pattern ore".
In the past three months, the miners have dug nearly a thousand cloud pattern stones. Except for 750 pieces handed over to the sect, the remaining 250 pieces went into Qin Tian's storage bag. Qin Tian was still very satisfied with this harvest. Now he only needs to wait for the ore to be refined and purified, and then he can go to the nearby market to exchange them for spiritual stones.
And in this calmness, another two hours passed. Just when Qin Tian finished the quenching, his divine consciousness suddenly moved and he suddenly opened his eyes.
I saw that the originally calm sea surface suddenly began to roll, accompanied by the whistling wind, the waves began to fluctuate, and soon evolved into a huge wave, constantly hitting the reefs on the shore, and a deafening roar was heard!
The tide is rising!
Qin Tian removed the ban, stood up on the reef, and his expression was a little solemn.
At this moment, a water arrow suddenly shot out from the sea surface a few feet away, heading straight for Qin Tian. The water arrow was only a few feet away from Qin Tian, and it was too late to use the golden shield at this time. Qin Tian was shocked and quickly used his body skills to dodge to the side, narrowly avoiding the water arrow.
However, even so, Qin Tian's right arm was scratched by the water arrow, and a blood mark was left on his sleeves and robes. Blood gushed out.
Qin Tian looked at the sea surface with a gloomy expression, but saw a sharp-mouthed strange fish floating on the water. The strange fish had a slender mouth, like an arrow, and its whole body was streamlined and blue. The whole body exuded a faint power fluctuation, which was different from the spiritual power of the cultivator. It was demonic power.
"Intermediate water monster, arrowfish."
After all, it was the first time to face a monster. Qin Tian looked a little solemn, and did not dare to be careless. After quickly sealing the meridians in his arm with one hand to stop the bleeding, he took out the golden sword and held it in his hand.
"I'll use you as a training." Qin Tian shouted with a cold face, and then controlled the golden sword to shoot at the archerfish.
The archerfish in the sea saw a golden sword coming, and the fish swung its tail and instantly sank into the sea and disappeared.
When the golden sword was about to hit the sea surface, it turned flexibly and quickly retreated, circling around Qin Tian.
Qin Tian looked at the place where the archerfish disappeared vigilantly, and with one hand, a golden and green spiritual shield appeared in front of him, and then he was secretly on guard.
Sure enough, a dozen feet away from the side, there was another faint demonic power fluctuation on the sea surface, and this time it was two consecutive water arrows rushing over.
Qin Tian did not dare to be careless, the two-color spiritual shield protected his whole body, and with one hand, the golden sword rushed away, while the other hand made a hand gesture, hiding it and secretly on guard.
With two muffled sounds, the water arrows hit the two-color spiritual shield, causing ripples in the spiritual shield. Qin Tian hurriedly surged his spiritual power, and the spiritual shield returned to normal after a while.
When the strange fish saw the flying sword coming, it did not sink into the deep sea this time. Instead, when the flying sword hit it, its body became active. While still in the air, it opened its mouth and shot out two water arrows in a row.
Just at this moment, Qin Tian's mouth curled up with a sneer.
The arm that had been holding the seal and not firing immediately swung, and three long-accumulated two-color spiritual arrows shot out, forming a "pin" shape and instantly blocking the path that the swordfish monster must take to fall.
Three spiritual arrows were fired at the same time, which was the strongest power of "Spiritual Arrow Technique" that Qin Tian could currently exert!
When the monster saw this scene, it couldn't help but become fierce. The fish tail swung flexibly in the air, and it actually avoided two of them, leaving only the last one to pierce the belly of the swordfish monster.
The swordfish roared angrily.
However, just as the swordfish was about to fall into the sea and escape, a golden light rushed past, and the swordfish's head and tail were separated immediately. It was the golden sword that took advantage of the swordfish's unpreparedness and turned around and rushed back.
At the same time, the two water arrows were also blocked by the two-color spirit shield, and then turned into water vapor and dissipated.
Seeing this, Qin Tian secretly breathed a sigh of relief, raised his hand to recall the flying sword, and cut off the sharp mouth of the swordfish. This is the most precious part of the swordfish monster. It can be sold in the market in the future to exchange for spirit stones. After all, no matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat.
Qin Tian had already known about these when he was chatting with the team members in the mine.
After a lot of trouble, Qin Tian took out the spirit stone and began to restore his mana. At the same time, his mind was all over his body to be alert. After all, the monster's attack on the island lasted for a long time, and he had to keep fighting at all times.
After this battle, Qin Tian also had a clear understanding of the strength of the monster. The realm division of the monster is roughly the same as that of the human race. The strength of the Qi training period is collectively referred to as low-level monsters, and the monsters of the same level are often stronger than human cultivators because of their strong physical bodies.
This swordfish is just a low-level intermediate monster, roughly equivalent to a human cultivator of the sixth level of Qi training. Without getting close, it almost broke Qin Tian's two-color spiritual shield with just the "water arrow technique", which shows how powerful the monster is!
After half a cup of tea, Qin Tian's spiritual power, which was not much consumed, has recovered quickly.
But before he could catch his breath, a visible ripple two hundred feet away from the sea surface in front of him spread to both sides, and a vague black shadow under the sea surface was approaching the beach quickly.
Qin Tian's mind swept, and his brows could not help but frowned slightly.
"The initial high-level monster, the sea lion beast, this is tricky!"
The information about the sea lion beast flashed quickly in his mind, and Qin Tian made a prompt decision. The golden sword hummed and shot out, heading straight for the black shadow under the sea surface.
This move is obviously to strike first!
