Chapter 1390 The feeling of loneliness
The gathering of these monsters was also a burden for Lin Mu.
The monsters in the spiritual enlightenment stage only have their spiritual intelligence opened and possess wisdom.
But they are not much different from wild beasts. They don't know how to practice on their own because they don't have the inheritance of skills.
Smart monsters can move and hunt other monsters, swallow the monster crystals of other monsters, and grow further.
The slightly slower monsters still live a life similar to that of wild beasts.
These monsters are now gathered here, and Lin Mu is responsible for their survival and growth.
This is definitely a big hassle.
Survival is not bad. Before coming here, these monsters lived well when fighting alone.
Now that we are together, we are stronger and there is no reason to live any worse.
Lin Mu's main difficulty is growing up.
How to make these monsters grow?
This is a very difficult question.
Let these monsters practice. The spiritual energy here is indeed too thin!
The wisdom of the monster beast itself is not as good as that of cultivators. Lin Mu is not willing to rely on spiritual energy to practice with such thin spiritual energy.
Even Lin Mu felt that the progress of cultivation was very slow, and he didn't know how slow these monster beasts would be in their cultivation.
Let them practice cultivation, but this path seems to be unworkable.
But letting them swallow the demon crystal is even more unfeasible.
There are so many demon beasts, and there are almost a hundred demon beasts gathered now. These demon beasts often require hundreds of demon crystals.
If a demon beast swallows a demon crystal, its strength can be improved a bit, but it is also limited.
If you want them to advance to the next level, they need a lot of demon crystals.
Where can I find such monsters to hunt?
This is also not realistic enough.
However, if the strength of these monster beasts is not improved as soon as possible, it will be meaningless for Lin Mu to gather them here.
Lin Mu originally hoped that they could help.
To deal with the beast tide, Lin Mu especially needed a monster to protect him so that he could attack without any distractions.
Naturally, the more monsters that protect him, the safer he will be.
The more powerful the better.
The Qingyan Sect is also a hidden danger, and it may come to entangle them at any time. If he is not careful, it will trigger a war, and he himself will definitely not be the opponent of the Qingyan Sect.
The strength of these monster beasts now is so low that they cannot be used in numbers.
Improving their strength is something that must be done.
But Lin Mu didn't know how to improve.
He can directly absorb the essence of the sun and moon to practice without relying on spiritual energy, but these monsters cannot.
Although they are both monsters, vegetation spirits, monsters, and monsters, they are still very different and have different talents.
Lin Mu felt a little embarrassed for a while.
Just when Lin Mu was at a loss what to do, on this day, the cyan fox demon ran over excitedly and said, "We have gathered two hundred monsters!"
Two hundred monsters!
When Lin Mu heard this, he was filled with joy and a tinge of sadness.
It is easy to gather these monsters, but it is very difficult to lead them.
These days, Lin Mu also devoured more than half of the demon crystals buried underground, and now only a hundred demon crystals are left.
Of course, after consuming so much, Lin Mu's strength improved significantly.
Lin Mu estimated based on his previous experience that his current cultivation should be equivalent to the previous mid-stage foundation building.
Of course, this is just the realm of cultivation.
If his attack power really compares, he can easily kill mid-stage foundation-building cultivators.
Because the spiritual power in his body can be restored to the power of the sun and the power of the lunar yin.
With the same spiritual power, his attack power can absolutely crush those ordinary middle-stage foundation-building cultivators.
This was only a long-range attack. If it was a close combat, Lin Mu would be even more relaxed. His body was a powerful weapon and he could easily kill a cultivator.
Therefore, in terms of strength, Lin Mu felt that he was no worse than some cultivators in the spiritual silence stage.
Of course, if a cultivator from the Golden Core stage comes, he will be doomed.
No matter how weak the Qingyan Sect is in terms of strength, the leader of the sect should still be at the Golden Core stage, and there must be more than one.
If they come, Lin Mu will really be in trouble.
He is not even qualified to talk and theory with these Jindan masters.
If he doesn't want to get up and go forward, Qingyanmen will forcefully dig him out.
By then, his storage bag will naturally be exposed!
"Two hundred monster beasts are enough. There is no need to gather any more."
Lin Mu wondered, "Now I haven't thought about how to settle them."
"How else can I settle down?"
The green fox demon said in surprise, "They gather here just because they can get your blessing and their safety is guaranteed. This is the biggest gain. Don't think so much. Don't always think about giving. There is no need at all. You are so great." Be kind!”
"Am I too kind?"
Hearing this, Lin Mu really didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
But yes, he really wants to help these monsters grow faster.
Although his original intention was to let these monsters help him deal with the Qingyan Sect, before he revealed this purpose, the green fox monster thought that he was very kind-hearted, and there was nothing wrong with that.
"You don't have to think so much. They are gathered here. With the guidance of me and Black Rhino, their strength will gradually improve."
The green fox demon said with a smile.
"That's what I said, but it's too slow!"
Lin Mu said truthfully.
"That's natural. Compared with you, their progress is indeed much slower."
The green fox demon said helplessly, "Not every monster is like you."
"Then is there any way to help them improve their cultivation faster?"
Lin Mu couldn't help but ask.
"They now improve their cultivation by eating, refining the essence of food, and warming and tempering the demon crystals."
The green fox demon explained, "Or it could be to swallow the demon crystal to grow faster."
Lin Mu was silent for a while.
This is similar to his view.
"However, when they reach the spirit-receiving stage, their cultivation speed will be much faster."
The green fox demon said with a smile.
"The spiritual period?"
Lin Mu was surprised. This was another realm he had never heard of.
"Yes, it is the spirit-receiving stage, but this spirit is no longer the spirit in the spiritual-enlightening stage. The spirit in the spiritual-enlightening stage is spiritual wisdom. The spirit in the spiritual-receiving stage is spiritual energy, which absorbs spiritual energy into the body. the meaning of."
The cyan fox demon explained patiently.
"Will this take a long time?"
Lin Mu asked concernedly.
"It won't take long. Look how long I've only known you. I will soon be promoted to the spiritual realm. I can absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. I heard that I can also have divine consciousness and learn some skills, such as breathing fire."
The green fox demon said happily.
Lin Mu understood immediately. , the spirit-receiving period of this monster is actually similar to the foundation-building period of a cultivator.
Being able to learn spells, possess spiritual consciousness, and absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth means that you can officially practice.
Really embark on the path of cultivation.
As for the Spirit Awakening Stage, everything is still based on instinct, or by swallowing demon crystals to improve one's cultivation. They don't know how to practice independently, and their strength is about the same as that of practitioners in the Qi Refining Stage.
"I should have reached what you call the spirit-receiving stage now."
Lin Mu smiled bitterly and said, "But the spiritual energy I sensed is very thin, and it is difficult to cultivate to a very high level. I am okay. The lifespan of trees is originally very long. You monsters are now in a low state. Life span is not very high, if I continue to use it up like this, I am afraid that I will die of old age, and my cultivation level will not be much higher.”
The green fox demon looked calm, as if she had known about this for a long time.
"This is a remote area belonging to the Forest of Ten Thousand Demons, so the spiritual energy is naturally relatively thin."
The green fox demon said, "I heard that places with strong spiritual energy are occupied by powerful monsters. If we want to practice there, we need to worship the top of the mountain!"
"Worship the mountain?"
Lin Mu was puzzled for a while.
"It means surrendering to them and obeying their orders in the future."
The cyan fox demon explained.
"Then what are your plans?"
Lin Mu couldn't help but ask directly.
The cyan fox demon was stunned when he heard this.
She didn't expect Lin Mu to be so direct and ask her this question face to face.
"I still have to discuss this with you."
The green fox demon pondered for a moment and then said, "I won't leave you alone."
"But, after all, I am a tree and cannot move."
Lin Mu was helpless.
Only now did he know that monsters could still worship the mountain!
Now the thin spiritual energy has no effect on them, because they have no spiritual consciousness, cannot sense the spiritual energy, and cannot practice.
After they are able to practice, they can go to places with strong spiritual energy and worship at the top of the mountain.
It’s really a perfect road!
Even the devil’s path will never be cut off!
However, these monsters can all find a better destination, and they will naturally be able to leave Lin Mu when the time comes.
Lin Mu suddenly realized that he was just helping these monsters, no matter how enthusiastic he was, it was useless.
Because these monsters are destined to leave here and leave him after they reach the spiritual stage.
No wonder the cyan fox demon said he was so kind-hearted.
Looking at it this way, he is really too kind.
Only then did Lin Mu feel that his desire to form a force was really a temporary idea.
Didn't think too much about it.
After listening to the green fox demon's words, he found that many problems had arisen.
One is that he cannot help these monsters improve their strength.
Even if you help them advance to the spiritual stage, they will definitely leave.
Lin Mu originally expected them to help him deal with the beast tide and the Qingyan Sect.
Now it seems that he is really wishful thinking and overthinking.
Even the cyan fox demon and black rhinoceros who have shared life and death with him will leave him by then!
When he thought of this, a feeling of loneliness suddenly came to Lin Mu's heart.
"That's what I planned."
The green fox demon couldn't guess what Lin Mu was thinking, so he said to himself, "When Xiao Hei, I, and a few elephant demons and deer demons have all reached the spirit-receiving stage, then we will look for a place with strong spiritual energy. place."
"this is okay!"
Lin Mu nodded and said, "When people go to higher places, good birds choose trees to rest. This is understandable."
"Would you like to come with us?"
The green fox demon asked eagerly.
Lin Mu couldn't help but be stunned.
