Chapter 58 Team up to Hunt Monsters
Seeing Xiao Lin and the other two had already arrived, Huo Jun smiled: "I didn't expect you two to arrive earlier. As the host, I and Fellow Daoist Jiang came a little late. We really neglected you."
Xiao Lin and Wan Huacai naturally exchanged a few polite words.
After that, after some introductions, Xiao Lin learned that the charming woman next to Huo Jun was named Jiang Lanzhi. Jiang Lanzhi was also a casual cultivator like himself, and she was also a sixth-level Qi Refining cultivator. Huo Jun and Wan Huacai were seventh-level Qi Refining cultivators, which was already a late-stage Qi Refining cultivator.
"Fellow Daoist Huo, you asked us to meet in this valley. I think this place is not far from the cold-blooded lizard's nest. Now you should also tell us about the specific situation of the cold-blooded lizard's nest, right?" After the greetings, Wan Huacai directly asked Huo Jun about the situation of the cold-blooded lizard's nest.
Hearing this, Huo Jun smiled and said, "Of course, since Huo has invited you to come, I will naturally share some information about the cold-blooded lizard's nest with you. After hunting the cold-blooded lizard, I will also distribute the prey according to our previous agreement. You can rest assured about this. However, the cold-blooded lizard is a mortal-level mid-level monster after all, and it is also good at the basic ice spell of the ice-based spell of freezing. This spell is extremely difficult to deal with. Once hit, whether it is a magic weapon or a person, it will be frozen in an instant. Even if it can break the ice with its own magic power, it will be greeted by the ice arrow spell that follows." "This cold-blooded lizard actually knows two basic spells?" Wan Huacai showed surprise on his face. "That's why the whole body of this cold-blooded lizard is a treasure. The scales of the cold-blooded lizard are the best material for refining the intermediate-level magic weapon cold scales, and its blood is even more precious. It is an auxiliary spiritual material for several kinds of elixirs. In Chixia Fairy City, a small bottle of cold-blooded lizard's blood can be sold for dozens of low-grade spiritual stones. If we can kill this nest of cold-blooded lizards, each of us can get at least 200 low-grade spiritual stones." Huo Jun was very excited when he mentioned the cold-blooded lizard monster. It was obvious that he had been drooling over the materials of the cold-blooded lizard for a long time.
After that, Huo Jun began to tell a few people about the terrain near the nest of the cold-blooded lizard and the precautions after entering the nest. The cold-blooded lizard is a unique monster in the cold water valley that covers hundreds of miles not far ahead. However, it is precisely because the cold blood in the body of the cold-blooded lizard is an auxiliary spiritual material for refining many elixirs, so it is very popular. There are not many of them now. They can only be seen occasionally in some very remote cold caves. Moreover, the cold-blooded lizard is usually very cautious. It will hide in the cave at the slightest sign of trouble and will not come out for ten days or half a month.
Huo Jun also passed by here by chance a year ago. When he was chasing a gold-swallowing rat, a mortal-level primary monster, he accidentally entered a very secret ancient cave. In the ancient cave, he unexpectedly found a nest of cold-blooded lizards. However, he was alone at the time. After weighing the pros and cons, he reluctantly left the ancient cave. If it was a single cold-blooded lizard, Huo Jun would naturally not be afraid, but facing three big and two small cold-blooded lizards, he could only run away.
After that, he had been looking for teammates to hunt the cold-blooded lizard together. It was not until more than two months ago that he saw Xiao Lin and finally gathered all the people.
After hearing what Huo Jun said, Xiao Lin showed a little surprise on his face. He didn't quite understand why Huo Jun chose him alone. He was not naive to think that Huo Jun saw that he was looking for ice Yin grass and decided to recruit him.
Obviously, Huo Jun also knew his confusion after seeing Xiao Lin's expression. He smiled and said, "In fact, I have observed Xiao Daoyou for a long time in the market. I judge that although Xiao Daoyou is practicing water-attributed exercises, he has practiced fire-related spells with completely opposite attributes, right?"
After hearing this, Xiao Lin was even more surprised. He had never heard of anyone who could see the type of spells that cultivators practiced. This surprised him and made him alert.
"Don't misunderstand, Fellow Daoist Xiao. I naturally didn't see what kind of magic you practiced. I just observed that your hands were slightly dry, and this phenomenon is the unique external feature of cultivators who practice fire magic, so I made this inference."
"I see." Xiao Lin's face showed a look of sudden realization: "Fellow Daoist Huo is really observant. He can even see such details. I admire him."
"Haha, this is also unavoidable. To deal with this cold-blooded lizard, the best magic is the fire magic, which can restrain one or two properties. In addition, with the cooperation of tens of thousands of Fellow Daoists The Thunder Zombie Technique will surely be able to kill one or two cold-blooded lizards in a short time, so that our pressure can be greatly reduced. "
"And I also practice the basic fire spell of the Fire Splitting Technique, and Fellow Daoist Jiang practices the earth spell of the Quicksand Technique. Therefore, with two of us as the main attackers and two as assistants, we should have at least a 60% to 70% chance of hunting down the cold-blooded lizards."
"So that's how it is. Fellow Daoist Huo is thoughtful. So, let's set off as soon as possible." Wan Huacai's face showed a look of realization, and even the charming cultivator surnamed Jiang next to him couldn't help but look at Huo Jun a few more times.
Xiao Lin was also secretly surprised. It seemed that Huo Jun had taken great pains to hunt down these cold-blooded lizards. Although it seemed casual, the teammates he recruited were obviously carefully considered. However, this way of teaming up is not uncommon in Chixia Immortal City. After all, teaming up to hunt monsters still requires coordination, and it is impossible to swarm up to sacrifice magic tools and cast spells. On the contrary, it is easy to have many flaws, and the monsters will take advantage of it, resulting in a failure in hunting.
Several people each controlled their magic weapons and soared into the sky, continuing to fly towards the north of the Tianlu Mountains. According to Xiao Lin's estimation, they were at least tens of thousands of miles away from Chixia Immortal City, and hundreds of thousands of miles to the north was the largest immortal city in the Tianlu Mountains, Xueling Immortal City. Xueling Immortal City was different from Wuyin Immortal City and Chixia Immortal City. If Wuyin Immortal City mainly gathered independent cultivators, then Chixia Immortal City was mainly composed of cultivation families, and Xueling Immortal City was located in the center of the five major sects. In addition, the north of this immortal city was connected to the Wanli Snow Plain. It was heard that the Wanli Snow Plain was full of monsters, and many monsters even gathered in groups, and it was always dark.
Many of the Qi-refining and foundation-building disciples of the five major sects would choose to practice in the snowfield, because the lowest level of the monsters in the Wanli Snowfield is the high-level mortal level, and it is not uncommon to see monsters of the mortal level. There are even some real monsters that often appear. However, although the Wanli Snowfield is a holy place for cultivators to practice, it is too dangerous for Xiao Lin now.
After half a day, Xiao Lin and his companions landed in a valley. As soon as they entered the valley, Xiao Lin felt the temperature drop sharply, and the breath in their mouths turned into white mist. Xiao Lin saw that a few miles away from them was a huge lake. The lake water was blue-black, and a few feet above the lake, there were groups of mist floating. In Xiao Lin's opinion, this should be the Hanshui Valley mentioned by Huo Jun.
"We are not far from the nest of the cold-blooded lizard now. In order not to attract their attention, we'd better walk the rest of the way." Huo Jun glanced at the lake not far away and said to the few people.
The few people naturally had no objection. Huo Jun took the lead and flew forward, covering a distance of 70 to 80 meters. Although many cultivators had not practiced the wind control technique, they could also achieve some of the effects of the wind control technique after infusing their mana into their legs. Although it was much worse than the real wind control technique, it was still much stronger than the secular light skill. Xiao Lin directly performed the light skill of the Flowing Cloud Light Body Technique and followed the few people, flying towards the forest.
After flying for a cup of tea, Huo Jun suddenly stopped. He asked the few people to hide behind a rock, and he himself went over to check first. After a while, he came back with a smile on his face.
"Those cold-blooded lizards are still there. I just checked the surroundings and found many traces left by cold-blooded lizards. It seems that they are all in the cave. Fellow Taoists, follow me later. Don't make any noise. We need to enter their nests so that we can attack one or two of them by surprise." Seeing everyone nod, Huo Jun jumped out first. Soon, they came to a cave with white mist. The cave was not big, only half a meter high. They had to bend down to enter. This made the three people except Huo Jun frown. However, not long after entering the cave, they suddenly saw the light in front of them. The cave ahead was getting wider and wider. Soon Xiao Lin and his companions saw a huge mountain in front of them. Huo Jun signaled them to slow down. Then they came to the entrance of the mountain. They saw a cold pond of about an acre in the middle of the mountain. White mist was rising above the cold pond. Through the mist, they could vaguely see several huge lizards over two feet long lying beside the cold pond. They were lying on their stomachs with their legs up, looking comfortable.
Xiao Lin's eyes lit up. He saw a three-leaf grass growing diagonally from a stone beside the cold pond. The grass was translucent and its leaves were like icicles. It was very beautiful. Xiao Lin recognized at a glance that this grass was the ice grass he had been looking for. He couldn't help showing a look of surprise on his face.
"We will split into two groups, I will be in one group with Daoist Jiang, and Daoist Xiao and Daoist Wan will be in another group. We will sneak past from both sides and launch a sneak attack at the same time. As long as we can kill one or two cold-blooded lizards first, our pressure will be much relieved later." Huo Jun lowered his voice and began to lay out the plan.
A moment later, Xiao Lin and Wan Huacai quietly passed by from the left side, both of them tried to keep their steps low, and the cold-blooded lizard seemed to have not expected that someone would sneak into its nest, and it was still lying on its back, enjoying the cold air emanating from the cold pond.
When they were still more than ten feet away from the edge of the cold pond, Xiao Lin and the others stopped, and Wan Huacai nodded to Xiao Lin, and then began to remain silent.
Xiao Lin understood that Wan Huacai was already preparing to cast the Thunder Zombie Technique, and he also stretched out his palm, and at the same time a red fireball slowly floated out from his palm and then began to grow.
