Chapter 1011: Human Heart Is Hard to Predict
The Fire Armored Beast that was hit was still dizzy, but the two Fire Armored Beasts beside it immediately became alert, each flashing a pair of small eyes, and began to search around.
After a moment, they locked onto Xiao Lin, who was smiling strangely in the distance. The two Fire Armored Beasts were immediately furious, and while swinging their tails, they actually pounced on Xiao Lin at an extremely alarming speed.
Even the Fire Armored Beast that was hit by Xiao Lin's spell regained consciousness, followed closely behind the two companions, and pounced on Xiao Lin.
Seeing that the goal had been achieved, Xiao Lin did not want to fight anymore, and turned around and left. Xiao Lin controlled his own magic power to the realm of the fifth level of Qi Refining, and performed the Land Tengmang method, flying towards the rock.
This Land Tengmang method was one of the martial arts that Xiao Lin practiced in the secular world back then. After hundreds of years, he felt a sense of nostalgia.
The fire-armored beast's limbs flew as fast as the wind. A flash of red light passed by, and it was several feet behind Xiao Lin. Xiao Lin's face showed fear, his face turned pale, and the mana in his body was also infused into his feet.
In a moment, its speed was three times faster, so that the three fire-armored beasts could not catch up for a while.
Soon Xiao Lin ran into the stone forest. As soon as he entered it, Xiao Lin heard the sound of a spell next to him. A group of thorns suddenly rose under the feet of the first of the three fire-armored beasts to rush into the stone forest, and instantly wrapped it tightly.
The sharp thorns on the thorns twisted and tried to pierce into its body, but the scales of the fire-armored beast were extremely hard, and the sharp thorns rubbed against them made a "squeaking" sound, but they did not penetrate.
At this moment, the fire-armored beast naturally understood that it had been tricked, and its small eyes turned red as it rolled around.
A red light flashed on his body, and a fire cloud several feet in size appeared above his head. Countless light spots flashed in the fire cloud, and then turned into a rain of fire, shooting towards the monk surnamed Lu beside him.
Monk surnamed Lu slapped the storage bag on his waist, and a ball of bright green light shot out from it. Inside was a palm-sized wooden sign, which grew twice in the wind and grew to three feet in the blink of an eye, blocking his head.
"Puff~" The fire rain sprinkled on the wooden sign, exploding sparks all over the sky, and the spiritual light on the wooden sign also dimmed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Monk surnamed Lu showed an angry look on his white face, and slapped the storage bag on his waist again, and a green light shot out from it, but it was a flying knife about a foot long with a green spiritual light, crossing an arc and slashing towards the fire armor beast.
"Clang~" a metallic collision sounded, and the magic weapon of the monk surnamed Lu was ejected several feet away by the impact, but he pinched the magic formula and pointed from a distance, and the flying knife that was knocked out immediately stabilized the blade, and then shook slightly, and shot towards the fire armor beast again.
Seeing this, the other two fire armor beasts were not idle either. A ball of red light emanated from their bodies, and a three-foot fire cloud instantly condensed above their heads.
At this time, a flying sword about a foot long, with a burst of flames, fell on the head of one of the fire armor beasts.
Seeing this, the fire armor beast immediately shifted its attention from the white-faced man to Tao Lingxiu, and the fire cloud flashed a large piece of fire and shot towards Tao Lingxiu.
On the other side, Wan Zhen also sent out a golden hairpin flashing with yellow light, and shot it towards a fire armor beast with a sharp whistle.
The white-faced man, Wan Zhen and Tao Lingxiu immediately faced a fire armor beast, and the fight became indistinguishable.
Xiao Lin, who was far away, was free for a while, and hid aside to watch the annoyance.
The fight lasted for a meal, and although the three of them had a slight advantage, the fire-armored beast had thick skin and rough flesh, and the magic weapon attacking it could not cause substantial damage to them except for splashing sparks all over the sky and causing pain.
"The weakness of this fire-armored beast is a white mark under its abdomen, which is also its most vulnerable point. As long as the white mark is hit, they will definitely die." Xiao Lin, who had watched the show for a long time, said casually.
The white-faced man and Wan Zhen immediately showed angry expressions when they heard it.
"Since Xiao Daoyou knew the weakness of this fire-armored beast, why didn't you tell us earlier? We have wasted a lot of mana in vain." Wan Zhen said dissatisfiedly.
Tao Lingxiu also glanced at Xiao Lin, showing a helpless expression.
"Hehe, I was chased by this fire-armored beast before, and my mind went blank. I just remembered it just now. Sorry, sorry." Xiao Lin smiled awkwardly.
The white-faced man and Wan Zhen were speechless when they heard it.
"Fellow Daoist Xiao, can you help me kill this fire armor beast first? Otherwise, if we keep delaying like this, it will probably take a long time to kill it."
"Okay." Xiao Lin didn't hesitate. He patted the storage bag on his waist and shot out a pair of gold and silver hooks. This gold and silver hook is a set of mid-level magic tools, and the quality is also excellent. He bought it from a magic tool store for this operation.
When the white-faced man saw the gold and silver hooks that Xiao Lin offered, a trace of greed suddenly appeared in his eyes.
The Muyun knife in his hand was only a primary magic tool. He originally planned to replace it with a mid-level magic tool after hunting a few fire armor beasts this time.
But he never thought that Xiao Lin, who was only at the fifth level of Qi Refining, actually had a set of mid-level magic tools, and judging from the spiritual light on it, the quality was obviously close to that of high-level magic tools.
The two magic tools shot towards the fire armor beast one after another.
The first golden hook attacked the Fire Armor Beast's cheek directly from the side. The huge impact force caused it to stagger to one side. This sideways movement immediately revealed the white mark on its abdomen.
The silver hook arrived just at this time, a silver light flashed, accompanied by a shrill roar, blood splashed, and the fire armor beast fell to the ground, blood gushed out from its abdomen, covering several feet of the ground in the blink of an eye, and it only had one breath left.
The white-faced man was stunned. He didn't expect that the magic weapon could be used in this way. Xiao Lin's two magic weapons were one in front and one behind, and just right, as if he was using his arms and fingers. Just like the golden hook lifted the body of the fire armor beast upwards, the silver hook directly attacked its vitals.
This made the white-faced man feel a little cold on his back, thinking about the person in front of him, is he really only at the fifth level of Qi Refining?
However, after killing the fire armor beast, Xiao Lin's face was pale, and he was panting heavily, looking like he had little magic power.
Seeing Xiao Lin's expression, the white-faced man felt a little disdainful in his heart.
"Good skills, but the mana is still a little shallow. This attack has obviously consumed a lot of his mana. It seems that he is also a silver-plated spear head." The white-faced man laughed in his heart.
Xiao Lin also waved to the white-faced man very tactfully, panting and retreating to a rock on the side, closing his eyes and regulating his breath.
After killing one fire armor beast, it was much easier for the three to deal with two, especially after knowing the weakness of the fire armor beast. It didn't take long for the three to kill the remaining two fire armor beasts one by one.
After killing three fire armor beasts, the three were also very tired. They each found a place and sat cross-legged.
After several hours, the three opened their eyes one after another. It was obvious that their mana had basically recovered, and Xiao Lin also opened his eyes at this time, and his eyes regained some spirit.
"Now that three fire armor beasts have been killed, there are still three left. We can just make a concerted effort and kill them in one fell swoop." Wan Zhen's beautiful face was full of excitement.
The blood, scales and bones of this fire-armored beast are excellent materials for refining elixirs and magic tools, and can be sold for a lot of spiritual stones. It is very difficult to encounter one at ordinary times.
Now six were found at once, which is really a small fortune.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look around, secretly sending a few glances to the white-faced man.
"The remaining three fire-armored beasts, there is a fire-armored beast king, I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with." Although three fire-armored beasts have been killed, facing the remaining three, Tao Lingxiu is still a little nervous.
"It's okay, even if the fire-armored beast king is a little stronger than ordinary fire-armored beasts, it won't be too outrageous. The four of us are enough to kill them."
"Doesn't fellow Daoist Lu have a set of flags for the mist formation? It's just right to arrange it and lead the three fire-armored beasts into the formation. Under the effect of the mist, they must be unable to distinguish between east, south, west and north. Then we can defeat them one by one from the side, and avoid wasting a lot of mana." Wan Zhen lowered his head and pondered for a while, then turned to look at the white-faced man next to him and said in a delicate voice.
The white-faced man heard this and showed a hesitant expression on his face. "I spent hundreds of low-grade spirit stones to pick up this formation flag from the descendant of a poor cultivator. If there is any mistake, it will be a huge loss."
"Don't worry, Daoyou Lu. If there is any loss of the formation flag, at most we will deduct it from our prey first. We will not let Daoyou Lu suffer any loss."
The white-faced man heard this and looked at Xiao Lin.
"Just do as Daoyou Tao said. We can't let Daoyou Lu do a loss-making business." Xiao Lin also echoed from the side, but he sneered in his heart.
"Okay." A painful expression flashed across the white-faced man's face. He took out six formation flags with a dim gray light from his storage bag. He came to the side of the stone forest and arranged the formation flags.
After arranging the formation flags, he retreated several feet away and uttered an obscure spell. As the spell sounded, a gray mist immediately appeared around him, and soon covered an area of 20 to 30 feet.
After doing all this, the three of them turned their eyes to Xiao Lin.
Xiao Lin had a bitter face and went to lure the Fire Armor Beast again.
......
Half a day later, accompanied by a shrill roar, the Fire Armor Beast King fell into a pool of blood.
Xiao Lin's face was pale. He had just been hit in the chest by the Fire Armor Beast King's tail and spurted out a mouthful of blood. At this moment, he was leaning against a rock and gasping for breath.
Tao Lingxiu's pretty face turned pale. She was not injured, but her mana was too much.
The white-faced man came to the body of the Fire Armor Beast King with a smile on his face, fiddled with it for a few times, confirmed that it was dead, and then smiled and put the body of the Fire Armor Beast King into the storage bag.
Although Wan Zhen also consumed a lot of mana, she was obviously better than Tao Lingxiu. She came to the side of the white-faced man with a sweet smile and put the bodies of the two Fire Armor Beasts that were close to her into the storage bag.
Seeing this scene, Tao Lingxiu frowned slightly. Although they had agreed before that she would only get the Red Sun Grass, the body of the Fire Armored Beast would belong to the two of them.
But now that Xiao Lin has joined, the distribution method naturally needs to be changed.
"Sister Wan, Fellow Daoist Lu and Fellow Daoist Xiao have also joined our team. Do we need to discuss the distribution of the prey again?"
"There is no need for this, because the dead do not need these things outside of the body." The white-faced man looked at Tao Lingxiu and said with a sneer.
"What does Fellow Daoist Lu mean by this?" Tao Lingxiu was slightly stunned when she heard this, and she had not yet reacted.
Wan Zhen suddenly slapped out with a palm, and the majestic magic power turned into palm power, directly slapping Tao Lingxiu's shoulder.
Tao Lingxiu groaned, staggered back a few feet, and spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Sister Wan, you?"
"Haha, my dear sister, you are still too naive. Eight red sun grasses plus six fire armor beast corpses, this is a lot of wealth. It's better to share it with two people than four people, right?"
No matter how naive Tao Lingxiu was, she understood the meaning of the words, and her pretty face turned pale.
In the world of immortal cultivation, she had heard a lot of stories about killing people and stealing treasures, but it was the first time that it really happened to her. Wan Zhen was a friend she met during a trial. After getting to know her, she felt that she was very cheerful and enthusiastic, and was very good to her. She even carefully guided her in cultivation because she had practiced for much longer than her, which made her trust her very much. So this time when hunting the fire armor beast, when Wan Zhen proposed to bring the white-faced man, she agreed without hesitation.
Tao Lingxiu could never have dreamed that such a close sister would have such a vicious heart and join forces with outsiders to take her life.
This made her feel terrified and extremely sad. Her eyes were filled with mist, but she tried hard not to let herself shed tears.
"Sister Wan, your purpose is nothing more than these eight red sun grasses and the bodies of the six fire armored beasts. I will give you all these things, hoping that you can spare my life and Xiao Daoyou's life."
Wan Zhen heard this, and a hesitant expression appeared on her charming face. To be honest, she really liked Tao Lingxiu's simplicity. In this world of immortal cultivation where everyone is treacherous, she felt a different and long-lost warmth.
This made her heart soften when she faced Tao Lingxiu's pleading eyes.
"Brother Lu, since we have already got what we want, let's spare their lives." Wan Zhen said, just as she turned her head.
"Ah~" A shrill scream sounded, and the sound came from Wan Zhen's mouth. She looked at her chest with disbelief, and a knife tip emitting a bright green light was revealed.
"Lu Zhengde, you didn't even let me go?" Wan Zhen turned her head with all her strength, looking at the white-faced man with a sinister smile on his face, her eyes full of unwillingness.
"Hehe, isn't it better for one person to monopolize these prey than for two people to share them? You still want to let them go? Do you know that once you let them go, it won't be long before we will be killed by the two of them. As the saying goes, if you don't remove the roots, they will grow again in the spring breeze. Lu never does such a stupid thing."
After saying that, he looked at Xiao Lin, whose face was pale, with a burning gaze, and smiled: "Besides, the gold and silver double hook magic weapon that Daoyou sacrificed earlier is a treasure. Since Lu has come across it, there is no reason to give it up."
