Chapter 223 Blood Hedgehog and Short-Eared Rabbit
Just as they were told, the two quickly found a cave where monsters lived. There was a large crystal stone above the cave that illuminated the surrounding area, and there were many shrubs half as tall as a man growing there! If you look closely, you will find signs of being eaten by monsters.
Wang Hao scanned the cave with his spiritual consciousness and found a nest of blood hedgehogs, including a male and a female, two first-level high-grade monsters that were nearly one foot long, and seven first-order low-grade baby monsters that were only two feet long.
Blood hedgehogs can grow to the second level. Their attack power is not good, but the spines on their backs are very sharp and sharp. When their bodies are curled up, they can form a round ball. Even monsters that are one level above them cannot bite them.
These thorns can be used to refine magic weapons, but because they are too small, the quality is often not high enough!
Their blood is very suitable for making blood ink for drawing spiritual talismans. In addition, they can also produce milk. Although the quality of the milk is not high, it is also a good product for low-level monks!
They also have the advantage of reproducing very quickly.
Wang Guangan glanced around and saw that there was no danger, and nodded slightly to Wang Hao.
Wang Hao understood and released Xiaodie. Xiaodie danced gracefully. In a moment, a large amount of mist appeared and floated close to the blood hedgehog's cave under the instigation of its wings!
The blood hedgehog didn't put up any resistance and passed out straight away.
Wang Hao collected them one by one into the spirit beast bag. With these blood hedgehogs, the family can not only make blood ink, but also add some nutrition to the young clan members. When the breeding scale increases in the future, they can also be placed in shops and restaurants. sell!
There was no elixir in their cave, and they must have eaten all of it. Looking at the walls, Wang Hao frowned, "Ancestor, why do these walls look like they were dug manually?"
Wang Guangan quickly stepped forward to check. Although he didn't know how many years had passed, the rock on the surface of the cave wall had weathered, but if he looked carefully, he could still see some traces of excavation.
Wang Guangan pointed to the fine stone above his head: "Originally, I was also wondering why there were these bright fine stones in this cave. Now it seems that this place should have been a mine, and it was mined and then abandoned to what it is now!"
"Although this is the edge of Duanyuan Mountain, there has been only one Jindan force in Qingyuanmen nearby for thousands of years. Judging from the traces of excavations, it must be more than a thousand years ago. Could it be that there were still large forces here a thousand years ago?" Wang Hao analyzed, can such a mine be mined? In a large mine, ordinary forces would never be able to do it, at least at the Golden Core level.
"Who knows, the Alchemy Cauldron Sect has also been destroyed. How many people know about it now? Maybe as you said, there used to be a large force here!"
The two of them don't dwell on this. It's normal to rise and fall in the world of immortality. Hasn't the Wang family become the new golden elixir force?
Along the way, monsters kept dying in the hands of the two of them. Since they wanted to occupy this place, cleaning them up was a matter of course. The value of raising these monsters was not high, so the two of them did not hold back.
Later, the two discovered a kind of short-eared rabbit. This kind of monster can only grow to the first-level mid-level, but it has strong fecundity and delicious meat. Its fur can also be used to make low-level robes or talisman paper, and the economic benefits are very high. Families can be cultivated.
The two continued to move forward. Gradually, the surrounding vegetation became lush at first, and plants as tall as a person began to appear, and then suddenly became sparse, until not even a weed appeared anymore. There were fewer and fewer monsters. There, they could always encounter a first-order monster beast, but now, the two of them had traveled more than twenty miles, but they never felt the breath of a monster beast again.
"He Qing said that the spiritual fire is right in front. The vegetation here is so abnormal, it is very likely that it is the spiritual fire of life!" Wang Hao analyzed.
"There are no low-level monsters here. There may be high-level monsters. Hao'er, follow me and be careful!" Wang Guangan warned!
After not walking far, huge root systems began to appear on the ground. These root systems were intertwined and branched, firmly digging into the ground and surrounding cave walls. Even tree roots gradually appeared on the top of the cave!
With such a well-developed root system, it would only be a towering tree. But could there be a big tree in this underground space?
At this time, the two of them could already feel the fluctuations of spiritual energy in front of them.
No longer hesitating, the two of them quickened their pace and headed straight for the source of the root system!
When they got closer, they discovered that a hundred feet in front of them, the root system came from a vine. It was said to be a vine, but it was several feet thick. It grew windingly, and the top penetrated directly into the top of the grotto. Depending on the situation, it was very Possibly through the ground! There is airflow flowing through the gaps between the vines. This may be the source of the air inside. If it were a closed space, there wouldn't be so many spiritual plants and monsters surviving!
At the root of the vine, on a piece of dark green ore, a flame was burning. This flame was not an ordinary flame of yellow or red, but a green color.
When the green flame burns, the flame seedlings rise up layer by layer, just like a half-opened flower, extremely gorgeous.
Wang Hao looked at the swaying green flames, his eyes showing greed.
The spiritual power contained in this flame is much purer and richer than the second-level elixir. If it can be absorbed and practiced, it will definitely be of great benefit.
As the flames burned, waves of fresh breath came to my face.
The roots of the vine are slowly absorbing the breath, which may be why it can grow to such a huge size.
Not only the vines benefited, but there were more than a dozen elixirs growing around them that were nourished by this fresh breath, and their growth conditions were also excellent. The peak year was close to a thousand years old, and the elixirs exuded a strange fragrance, separated by a hundred feet of Wang Haodu. Can smell it clearly!
The aura emitted by the Life Spirit Fire benefits the surrounding spiritual plants, and these plants constantly feed back the Life Spirit Fire with their own vitality.
Every moment, a large amount of green vitality is gathered by the Life Spirit Fire and refined by it.
Rather than being nourished by the spiritual fire, the vine works for the spiritual fire. The developed root system constantly draws the vitality of the surrounding wood system, transports it to the vicinity of the spiritual fire through the root system, and is absorbed and refined by the spiritual fire.
In this way, a good closed loop of mutual promotion is formed.
Perhaps because of this, the Life Spirit Fire can keep burning and has a tendency to become stronger and stronger.
If it is not discovered by itself, then after a few years, as long as there is a little opportunity, the Life Spirit Fire is likely to give birth to spiritual intelligence and greatly increase its strength.
At that time, even if Wang Hao discovered it, he would not have the strength to collect it!
There is a huge difference between spiritual fire with intelligence and spiritual fire without intelligence, just like a low-level monster and a transformed monster, there is a huge gap between them!
However, spiritual fire with intelligence is extremely rare, and it is even more difficult than for humans to cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage.
