Chapter 70 The three talents are missing
The group of people returned to Qingxuan Sect after a long journey. Zhang Hanyan took the head of the horned bull to hand in the task. The group of people hurriedly came to Zhongxuanfang City and exchanged a large amount of monster materials in their hands for spiritual stones.
The fire-horned ox has a huge body, and Zhang Zhixuan went to three or four inns just to process the monster meat, and finally set up a stall in the market to sell it for a while.
Although the meat and spiritual energy of this monster beast are not as abundant as those of the Flying Fire Toad, the taste is better.
Compared with the Flying Fire Toad, the flesh and blood of the Fire Horn Ox is relatively more valuable. The meat on its body exceeds 10,000 kilograms. Zhang Zhixuan spent a lot of effort to drag the monster meat back to Fangshi.
Tens of thousands of kilograms of monster meat were sold for a total of six hundred spirit stones, and the blood essence on his body was also sold for two hundred spirit stones. As for other bones, tendons and other messy things, they were also sold for two to three hundred spirit stones.
After killing the fire-horned cow, except for the most valuable horns on its head, the materials on its body were sold for thousands of spiritual stones, making the four people’s pockets a little richer.
This time, in addition to using three third-level talismans and a fire thunder bead to hunt the Fire Horned Ox, the four of them successfully hunted the beast without expending much effort. The total cost was only one thousand. Around the spirit stone.
However, after hunting the Fire Horned Ox, the dungeon-turned-golden formation was useless.
They are going to hunt down fire crystal ants next. This group of demonic ants is extremely numerous and has sharp teeth and sharp mouths. When they swarm up, they can easily bite through fine iron. Even under the blessing of the formation, it only takes a short time to kill them. It can drain the mana of Zhang Menglong who is in charge of the formation.
After some discussion, they decided to sell the dungeon-turned-gold formation, and then the fourth uncle would prepare another formation to restrain the fire crystal ants.
Unfortunately, the Earthen Prison Golden Formation has obvious shortcomings. It is restrained by water-attribute spells. Once faced with monks with various methods, it can be easily cracked. Therefore, this kind of formation cannot be sold at a high price in the market.
In the end, this formation was handed over to the sect by Zhang Hanyan in exchange for two hundred good deeds.
A large sect like Qingxuan Sect often faces the invasion of monsters. The methods of monsters are relatively simple. Except for water-attribute monsters, this set of formations is good for besieging monsters.
The market price of a normal third-level low-grade formation in the market is at least six hundred spirit stones. Unfortunately, the shortcomings of this formation were too obvious, and only 200 good deeds were obtained, which were worth about 200 low-grade spiritual stones.
It had taken half a year to hunt the monsters twice in a row. The continuous high-intensity mental stress made the four of them a little tired.
They first returned to Hanyan Cave Mansion and visited their fifteenth uncle Zhang Mengchong who was recovering from his injuries.
After several months of self-cultivation, Uncle Fifteen finally looked better.
The magical weapon was destroyed, and his consciousness backfired. The main damage was to his spirit. After several months of training, his injuries were mostly healed.
After some discussion, a few people decided to rest for more than half a year at once. After Uncle Fifteen recovered from his injuries, he prepared the formation and went to the Southern Wilderness again.
The first two successful hunts of foundation-building monsters have earned Zhang Hanyan 3,800 good deeds. Adding to the 800 good deeds she had accumulated before, Hanyan already had 4,600 good deeds in her hands.
It takes about 10,000 good deeds to redeem one Foundation Establishment Pill, and the good deeds in Han Yan’s hands can almost be exchanged for half of the Foundation Establishment Pill.
The fire crystal ant’s reward for good deeds is even higher, up to three thousand good deeds. This kind of dominating monster insect must have valuable spiritual objects in its nest. With everyone’s personal contribution, it should be able to raise ten thousand good deeds.
The fire-horned beast’s hide is very tough, and even if it is slashed with a second-level mid-grade magical weapon, it will be difficult to break through its defense. Once worn on a monk’s body, it can greatly protect the monk’s safety.
This second-level high-grade inner armor is more expensive than ordinary second-order high-grade magic weapons. Each piece of monster inner armor is worth at least two hundred spirit stones in the market.
Wearing this inner armor, unless it is directly bitten by a third-level ant queen, it is difficult to cause fatal injuries. It is basically impossible for low-level fire crystal ants to bite through the inner armor’s defense. Facing the surging ant tide, everyone’s safety is also higher.
The fourth uncle, Zhang Menglong, is a third-level formation mage. It is difficult to break into the profession of formation mage. Even in a large sect such as Qingxuan Sect, his level can be regarded as a talent in the sect.
There are also relatively few monks who choose the formation profession. In the entire Qingxuan Sect, there are less than seven or eight formation masters above level three.
These seven or eight people are basically accomplished monks such as Zhuji and Zifu.
It has been very rare for thousands of years for a monk to become a third-level formation mage during the Qi training period, even in a large sect like Qingxuan Sect.
Up to now, the fourth uncle has been able to refine six third-level formations. Except for the family’s Qingguang Bamboo Sea Formation, which is the most powerful formation using earth veins, the remaining formations are all formed using formation disks. .
Using array disks to set up formations, although less powerful, is very convenient to carry.
As long as the formation board is laid out in advance and the formation flag is set up, the spiritual energy in the world can be mobilized, and it is very quick to use.
This time to hunt fire crystal ants, Fourth Uncle Zhang Menglong finally decided to use the Three Talents Tracing Formation after careful consideration.
Apart from their large numbers, the Fire Crystal Ants have no special specialties.
The queen ant’s spiritual consciousness can be released externally, and she can use her spiritual consciousness to control the worker ants below.
The Three Talents Tracing Formation can create a white mist with a radius of ten miles, confusing the five senses of the monks. Even the spiritual consciousness of the monks in the foundation-building stage can be easily suppressed in the fog, and can only exert two or three out of ten effects.
The Sancai Lost Formation is a large-scale formation, and it is troublesome to set up. Just setting up the formation flags requires more than a hundred poles. Refining this kind of formation not only requires more materials, but also takes more time.
Under the busy schedule, Fourth Uncle spent seven or eight months and exhausted the eight hundred spirit stones he captured last time before he successfully refined this set of formations.
At this time, the fifteenth uncle Zhang Mengchong had been practicing for almost a year, and finally fully recovered from his injuries when they went deep into the Southern Wilderness for the third time.
Because his second-level high-grade magic weapon had been scrapped, everyone collected one hundred and sixty spirit stones to buy him a sharp second-level high-grade flying sword.
Along the way, he raced against time to refine the flying sword, and finally he was able to control the flying sword skillfully before reaching his destination.
