Chapter 828 Star Beast
Thinking of this, Duan Qing sacrificed nineteen more Guiyan knives, controlled the Guiyan knives, and tentatively fired at the star beast.
Since magic doesn't work, try physical damage.
Nineteen Guiyan knives, controlled by Duan Qing, fell on the star beast like pear blossoms in a rainstorm.
For a moment, red juice splashed all over the star beast's body, and it was directly pierced into a sieve by the nineteen Guiyan knives.
It really works!
Duan Qing was pleasantly surprised, but also felt a little puzzled.
This star beast seems to be too weak.
However, although the star beast was seriously injured, its movements only became slower and there was no sign of falling.
Even the wounds on his body caused by the Guiyan Sword were gradually healing.
Seeing this, Duan Qing was too lazy to care about anything else, so he prepared to control the Guiyan Sword again to give the star beast a fatal blow.
At this moment, Gongsun Long, who was fighting with the star beast a few feet away, suddenly shouted: "Fellow Daoist Duan, stop it!"
Duan Qing looked at Gongsun Long in confusion.
While restraining the star beast, Gongsun Long explained to Duan Qing: "Fellow Daoist Duan, don't rush to make a move. Keep the star beast for a while!"
"Didn't we promise a quick victory? What do you mean by Fellow Daoist Gongsun's words?" Duan Qing felt confused.
Gongsun Long was a little embarrassed: "I was so excited when I saw the star beast just now that I forgot to tell Fellow Daoist Duan that we can't kill this star beast too fast!"
"After the star beast breaks out of its cocoon, it will quickly absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to increase its strength."
"It is said that the strength of star beasts is divided into five stages, and the strength of each stage will be greatly improved."
"At the same time, the broken star stones in the star beast's body will also change."
"If you kill the weakest first-level star beast, you can only get a first-level broken star stone, but if you kill the fifth-level star beast, you can get a fifth-level broken star stone!"
"The grade of this Broken Star Stone is different, and the number of places that can enter the Broken Star Palace is also different."
"The first-level broken star stone can only allow one person to enter the broken star palace, the second-level stone can allow two people, and so on, up to five people."
"With our strength, it would be a pity to kill this first-level star beast that has just emerged from its cocoon."
"I think this place is remote, and there should be no other monks or monsters coming for the time being. We might as well let these three star beasts advance first. When the strength of the star beasts is about to exceed our control, we can kill them and get the broken star stones."
After listening to Gongsun Long's explanation, Duan Qing suddenly realized.
Although Senior Yuan Wuwu had also entered the Broken Star Palace back then, he had entered with others. He had never seen the star beast in person, nor had he participated in the robbery of the Broken Star Stone. Therefore, he only had a brief understanding of the grade of the Broken Star Stone. Just heard it.
This was something that even senior Yuan Wuwu knew only a little bit about, and he naturally knew nothing about it.
Gongsun Long, after all, was born in a super sect such as Tiangong Sect, and his knowledge is indeed extraordinary.
While sighing at Gongsun Long's vast knowledge, Duan Qing couldn't help but ask Gongsun Long: "Fellow Daoist Gongsun, I wonder how long it will take for this star beast to advance?"
Although the value of higher-grade star fragments increases exponentially, the two of them have important matters at hand and cannot stay here for too long.
If it takes too long for the star beast to advance, due to his own priorities and the possibility that other people or monsters may arrive at any time, he would rather cut through the mess quickly and directly kill the star beast that is currently only at the first level.
As the saying goes, ten birds in the forest are worth less than one in the hand.
Regarding Duan Qing's question, Gongsun Long was a little unsure and said: "This... Gongsun doesn't know either!"
"But it is said that the star beast advances very quickly, it shouldn't take long!"
How fast is extremely fast depends on what it is compared to!
Duan Qing frowned slightly: "One stick of incense, just wait for one stick of incense. If the star beast has not advanced after one stick of incense, or if someone else approaches during the process, we will start to get the broken star stones immediately!"
"Okay!" Gongsun Long nodded directly without thinking.
Even if Duan Qing didn't say it, he still meant it.
Even though this place is remote, the movement of the Red Meteor falling from the sky is so loud after all that it can be detected hundreds or even thousands of miles away.
Maybe some transformed monsters in the endless sea would discover Chi Yun and want to come and get a piece of the pie.
Considering the current situation, the time for burning an incense stick is neither long nor short. It is almost the most reasonable choice between risks and benefits.
After reaching a consensus with Gongsun Long, Duan Qing paid attention to the changes in the star beast, while always paying attention to whether there were any monks or monsters approaching around him.
Not long after, half the time of burning incense had passed.
At this time, among the three star beasts, the star beast that had not moved since breaking out of its cocoon suddenly changed.
I saw that the vortex on his face turned into two without any warning, and the aura on his body suddenly became much stronger.
The two star beasts in the field, being restrained by Duan Qing and Gongsun Long respectively, did not change at all, and there was still only a vortex on their faces.
After noticing this scene, Duan Qing seemed to have some realization.
The star beast restrained by the two of them has been moving, and there must be consumption, so it progresses slowly.
As for the star beast that has been motionless, it was probably the first to advance because it stayed in place without any consumption.
Sure enough, it was the same as Duan Qing thought.
A short while after the first star beast advanced, the two star beasts restrained by the two also advanced one after another. The vortex on the face became two, and the speed suddenly increased sharply, about the level of the late spiritual sea realm. .
The star beast advanced so quickly, Duan Qing's spirit was greatly boosted, and he immediately used the Guiyan Sword to test the strength of this second-level star beast.
After his test, he found that the star beast's strength was still under his control, and there was still a lot of room for improvement.
Less than half of the time has passed. It seems that it is entirely possible to let the star beast advance to the third level and then kill it.
Thinking of this, Duan Qing continued to restrain the star beast and waited patiently.
Gongsun Long's idea was naturally the same as Duan Qing's.
Even if his strength was not as good as Duan Qing's, judging from the strength of the second-level star beast, it was definitely no problem to deal with a third-level star beast.
In this way, after about half an incense stick of time, among the three star beasts on the scene, the star beast that had not moved was the first to advance to the third level, and the vortex on its face became three.
Shortly after this, the star beasts that the two restrained also advanced to the third level.
Seeing the star beast advance, Duan Qing made a quick decision and whispered to Gongsun Long: "Do it!"
After that, Duan Qing was the first to control the Guiyan Sword and shoot at the neck of the star beast.
During the period of restraining the star beast, Gongsun Long had told him that the star beast's weakness was the head.
As long as its head was cut off, the star beast would not be able to recover.
Just when Duan Qing was about to kill the star beast and take the broken star stone, the star beast that had not moved since it broke out of its cocoon suddenly took a step forward without any warning and ran away in the opposite direction of the two of them.
