Chapter 31 The River Pond

This time, Zhang Qingyuan's task is still the task of District B.

The content of the quest is roughly in the vicinity of the Lingtao Woodland near Hetang Town. Not long ago, a group of low-level demon monkeys appeared. Among them, the strength of the monkey king was already close to the strength of the fifth-level peak of the Lingyuan realm.

The Monstrous Monkey King led a group of Monkey Monkeys to rampage around Ling Tao Land.

Stealing peaches, robbing spiritual fruit, besieging and hurting Lingnong,

It brought a lot of trouble to the few small cultivation families who were in charge of Lingguo Land.

The few cultivating families who managed the Lingguoyuan did not organize family cultivators to fight back, but they were ambushed by the cunning demon monkey led by the large army during the process of entering the mountain.

Under the leadership of the Monkey King,

Twenty or thirty low-level demon monkeys of the first and second levels of spiritual energy, together with dozens or hundreds of ordinary monkey groups, launched a siege on the monks who entered the mountain. The monkey king was hidden among the monkey groups, and from time to time in the chaotic battlefield In the middle of the sneak attack, it launched a fatal blow to those small family cultivators.

The result, of course, was a complete failure.

If it weren't for those who had reached the mid-level of the Spiritual Origin Realm and fought to break through, I am afraid that the elites of those small clan forces would have been completely lost in that battle!

However, even so,

A few small cultivating families were also hit hard.

In desperation, the few small cultivating families had to unite and ask Yunshuizong for help, and issued the mission of exterminating the Monkey King at the outer gate, hoping that a stronger Yunshuizong Shangxian would take over the mission.

The reward for this quest is 800 contribution points, a pound of ten-year spiritual peach.

Just look at the task rewards,

The rewards are quite generous.

However,

Monster monkeys, these monsters,

Except for some curious monks who may want to taste the taste of monkey brains or use some unorthodox alchemy recipes, those low-level demon monkeys are not of much value at all.

The meat of the monster monkey may also be a rare monster meat for ordinary people, and it has a certain role in strengthening the body.

But for monks like Zhang Qingyuan,

That little bit of improvement was simply not enough for the monks to endure the nausea and have any thoughts on humanoid monsters.

Can't even sell for any price.

Perhaps the value of the monkey king at the peak of the fifth level of the Lingyuan realm is higher, but it is also limited, and the price is lower than that of other monsters in the same realm.

so,

The extra oil and water for this mission is really a bit small,

not to mention,

Hundreds of monkeys, twenty or thirty demon monkeys at the first and second levels of the spirit element, and monkey kings with strength at the fifth level of the spirit element realm, at least the cultivators in the late stage of the spirit element realm must have a certain degree of certainty to exterminate them.

This is not comparable to the first mission that Zhang Qingyuan accepted to kill the spirit-devouring rat.

As long as the latter finds the spirit-devouring rat's lair, even a cultivator in the mid-spiritual realm can kill the spirit-devouring rat.

The two are not the same at all,

The task is difficult,

The extra quest has a low yield, so not many people are willing to take this quest.

Also from this,

The reward for this task is higher than ordinary tasks. In order to give enough rewards, the monks of the cultivation family had to take out a pound of ten years of spiritual peaches.

Ten years of Ling Tao,

In the square market, the price is at least eight or nine spirit stones, and there is still a price and no market.

no doubt,

After Zhao Yuanyang's banquet that day, Zhang Qingyuan, who realized that Lingguo had improved the effect of his own cultivation, was moved.

"Now that I have reached the middle stage of the seventh level of spiritual essence, with the addition of silver shadows and other means of combining stunts such as avalanche, I can even compete against monks in the late seventh level. It shouldn't be a problem to deal with some low-level demon monkeys."

Simple calculation of various pros and cons possibilities,

Zhang Qingyuan made all kinds of preparations,

accepted the task,

Then left the gate of the other courtyard.

......

Hetang Town is located more than 200 kilometers away from the outer gate of Yunshui Sect. It is between mountains. The lush forests and rolling mountains almost block the land road of Hetang Town.

Fortunately,

A river winds out from between the deep mountains and dense forests, and the rushing clear river water is the main traffic road for connecting with the outside world.

About a hundred years ago,

Hetang Town is just a wilderness in the mountains, and there is no human presence.

Later, when someone entered the mountain, they accidentally discovered a miniature spiritual vein nearby, and the spiritual energy was scattered in the air. After more than ten years of development, a forest of spiritual fruit has been bred nearby.

The news spread, attracting more than a dozen cultivators.

They will drive out and kill all the low-level monsters occupying the Lingguo Woodland, draw down the rules, determine the rules and regulations, and start to compete for this Lingguo land.

After a struggle,

A few are very small, with a total of only thirty low-level monks and a small family alliance jointly occupying this place, and they entrusted their connections to pay tribute to the Yunshui Sect and requested to be attached to the sphere of influence of the sect.

certainly,

As the price of Yunshuizong's recognition of their legitimate rights and interests,

These small clan power alliances will turn over fifty percent of the harvest from the Lingguo Forest to Yunshui Sect every year.

but,

No matter how small those miniature self-cultivation families are,

At least in the eyes of mortals, it is a noble family of immortals,

These self-cultivation forces relocated all the family members, and with the help of the monks in the family, they wiped out all the beasts and beasts around them, and established a safe gathering point.

A large number of mortals are stationed here, recuperating and serving the monks.

at the same time,

In the mountains and basins around Lingguo Territory, the soil is fertile. After the beasts in the mountains were cleared by the monks, the mortals cultivated the wasteland here, and gradually cultivated a large number of fertile fields and became self-sufficient.

After hundreds of years of development,

Relying on the traffic of rivers and waterways, this place gradually converges into a small town.

The arrival of Zhang Qingyuan,

Li Shi was welcomed by these small cultivating clan forces in the local area, headed by one of the patriarchs surnamed Zheng, whose cultivation base is roughly at the early stage of the fifth level of Lingyuan Realm.

His breath fluctuated a little, as if he was injured.

After a welcome greeting,

Zhang Qingyuan asked about the specific situation,

learned from the other party's mouth,

It turned out that in the recent period of time, the hundreds of monkeys near the Lingguo Forest had somehow changed, and the number of ordinary monkeys not only increased by more than half, but reached more than 200.

Originally there were only twenty or thirty low-level demon monkeys at the first and second levels of spiritual energy, but now the number has increased to at least fifty!

Those frenzied guys are now gathering in groups, and a large group is swaggering around the Lingguo Forest to snatch the Lingguo.

If it weren't for the precious Breitling peach trees at the core of the Lingguo Forest, there was a miniature defensive formation jointly arranged by several families, which resisted the most central area of ​​the monkey group's attack.

I am afraid that this year, the small powers of these small cultivation families will be completely lost.

However, even so,

I'm afraid it won't last long.

Because in the previous day's offensive and defensive battle with the monkey group that had increased in number and strength, several clan forces did their best to drive out the monkey group just now.

But in that war,

The rest of the patriarchs also suffered a lot of injuries and had to cultivate within the Hui clan, so only the patriarch of the Zheng family came here alone, otherwise they should all arrive.

For this reason, the head of the Zheng family and others also expressed their apologies.

Zhang Qingyuan naturally doesn't care about these false things,

After learning about the situation,

He paid more attention to the mutation of this group of demon monkeys.
