A Biography of the Liu Family in Peach Blossom Mountain
Chapter 2 The First Time Hunting Monsters
Chapter 2: First Demon Hunting
The surrounding territory of Peach Blossom Mountain is mostly low hills and ridges, with few plains and valleys. Although there are some Rank One spiritual veins, the weak family is unable to occupy and develop them. As a result, these spiritual veins are easily occupied by Demonic Beasts that migrate from deep within Azure Cloud Mountain. These Demonic Beasts pose a serious threat to the family's cultivators and mortals!
The most important purpose of the Liu Family's demon hunting operation is to eliminate these Demonic Beasts that have entered the family's territory and prevent them from posing a threat to the family's members!
After completing the inspection of the family's three hundred miles of territory, the demon hunting team will proceed to the depths of Azure Cloud Mountain Range. They will begin to freely collect Spirit Medicine and hunt Demonic Beasts. At the same time, they will also investigate the distribution of Demonic Beasts in the depths of Azure Cloud Mountain Range outside the family's territory, providing intelligence support for the family to deal with the threat of powerful Great Monster beasts.
Of course, the demon hunting team does not dare to go too deep. It should be known that within the billions of miles of Azure Cloud Mountain Range, there are Rank Five Great Monsters, and there are too many Rank Two and Rank Three Demonic Beasts. These are not something that a Qi Refining family can provoke!
The cultivation realms of cultivators on this planet include: Qi Refining, Foundation Building, Gold Core, Nascent Soul, and Soul Formation. After a cultivator reaches the Soul Formation Stage, if they want to break through to a higher realm, they need to leave this planet and go to other higher-level cultivation planets.
The corresponding realm of Demonic Beasts is as follows: Rank One Demonic Beasts are equivalent to Qi Refining cultivators, Rank Two Demonic Beasts are equivalent to Foundation Building cultivators, and Rank Five Demonic Beasts are equivalent to human Soul Formation cultivators.
Led by the fourth elder of the Liu Family, Liu Baichuan, the demon hunting team quickly left Peach Blossom Villa, descended Peach Blossom Mountain along the stone steps, and passed through the villages where the mortal members of the family gathered, heading towards the sparsely populated wilderness.
Due to the complex terrain, abundant vegetation, and numerous wild animals, Demonic Beasts are also very easy to hide in these sparsely populated forests. This is also the key area that the Liu Family's demon hunting team focuses on clearing.
As the captain, Liu Baichuan is experienced in demon hunting. After the demon hunting team entered the wilderness, he immediately commanded the members of the team to spread out and search in a fan-shaped formation, maintaining a certain distance from each other.
When the members of the demon hunting team find a Demonic Beast, it is best if they can kill it alone. If they cannot kill it alone, they can call for their fellow clan members to fight together.
The terrain in the mountains is rugged and difficult to traverse, but fortunately, everyone is a Qi Refining cultivator and can use light body technique to move swiftly in the mountains, incredibly fast.
Liu Zhangxu is already a mid-stage Qi Refining cultivator. Although he cannot fly in the sky like a late-stage Qi Refining cultivator using a flying Law Weapon, he can still use powerful mana to perform light body technique, covering a distance of three zhang in one step, incredibly fast!
According to the experience passed down by the elders, after walking a certain distance, they must first conceal their figures, use the Spiritual Eye Technique and divine sense to observe the surrounding situation, and only when they confirm that there is no danger can they proceed quickly.
There are various dangers in the mountains, including Demonic Beasts that are good at hiding, demonic birds flying in the sky, hard-to-detect poisonous insects, and even spirit plants that can be fatal.
The means of exploration for cultivators is most clear and sensitive through their divine sense observation.
When a cultivator enters the Qi Refining Stage, they will generate divine sense. Generally, the observation distance of a cultivator at the first level of Qi Refining is two zhang, which means they can clearly observe the surroundings within a two zhang radius.
The power of divine sense will increase as the cultivator's cultivation level advances. Liu Zhangxu, at the fifth level of Qi Refining, has an observation distance of ten zhang.
Another means of exploration for cultivators is the Spiritual Eye Technique. Its advantage is that it has a long observation distance.
Liu Zhangxu's Spiritual Eye Technique, the Golden Light Eye, is a Yellow Rank Middle Grade spell. It can clearly see the scenery within ten li, and it is named after the golden light emitted from the eyes during casting.
This Golden Light Eye spell not only allows cultivators to see farther and clearer, but also helps them observe and distinguish the presence of spiritual energy in objects and in the air.
The observation distance and effectiveness of the Spiritual Eye Technique also depend on the cultivator's cultivation level and the quality of the Spiritual Eye Technique spell they use.
When a Nascent Soul cultivator cultivates a high-grade Spiritual Eye Technique spell, they can clearly see scenery thousands of li away. That is truly the Thousand-Mile Eye.
As this is Liu Zhangxu's first time hunting demons, he is curious about everything around him!
In the beautiful wilderness, besides Demonic Beasts that are full of treasures, there are also countless precious spirit medicines, spirit fruits, spirit trees, and spirit materials waiting for cultivators to discover!
According to the experience introduced by the elders of the family, when searching for Demonic Beast treasures, one must first be familiar with the appearance, habits, and characteristics of various Demonic Beasts and natural treasures!
For this reason, the family academy requires every member of the clan to be familiar with and master various knowledge related to Demonic Beasts and natural treasures, even using samples obtained by the family for physical teaching.
Walking on the land that belongs to the Liu family, Liu Zhangxu is extremely nervous and excited!
Nervous because he doesn't know what kind of Demonic Beasts he will encounter and whether he can deal with them! Excited because of the anticipation of the gains from this trip! Fantasizing about finding precious spirit medicines or other rare treasures!
According to the experience of the elders, every time Liu Zhangxu walks a certain distance, he stops and carefully observes the situation in the distance using the Spiritual Eye Technique. When encountering places with overflowing spiritual energy, he will use divine sense to observe carefully when approaching!
However, after searching for a long time, he still hasn't found any traces of Demonic Beasts and spirit treasures!
Obviously, Demonic Beasts and spirit treasures are not easy to find. After sorting out his emotions, Liu Zhangxu continues to move forward!
Finally, after walking a long way, Liu Zhangxu finally discovered three Qingqi grasses emitting a faint spiritual aura in a thicket at the foot of a small hill. These three Qingqi grasses are all three years old and have reached the Rank One Low Grade Spirit Medicine level, making them the main ingredient for refining Qi Refining Pills.
Liu Zhangxu was extremely happy. This was the first time he had harvested Spirit Medicine!
After confirming that there were no Demonic Beasts or demonic insects around the Spirit Medicine, Liu Zhangxu dug up these three Spirit Medicine plants along with their entire root systems and put them into a special Spirit Medicine jade box.
Since the Liu Family's main industry is the Spirit Fruit Medicine Garden and Spirit Field, most of the Liu family members are Spirit Planters.
Liu Zhangxu is also a Rank One Middle Grade Spirit Planter. In his own small courtyard, he planted one mu of Rank One Middle Grade Purple Crystal Rice, half a mu of Rank One Spirit Medicine, and two Rank One Low Grade Jade Spirit Peach trees. The harvest from these plants belongs to him.
The family strongly encourages its members to transplant any spiritual plants they find outside back to the family. They give higher contribution points to the family cultivators who turn in transplanted spiritual plants.
As a result, Liu family cultivators are willing to dig up and bring back whole plants they discover to transplant them in the family.
Next, he found eight more Qingqi grasses, which made him very satisfied!
While Liu Zhangxu was searching in a dense forest, he suddenly used his golden eye to see a patch of apricot-yellow Ling Mushroom growing on a withered tree in the distance.
Apricot-yellow Ling Mushroom is a Rank One Low Grade Ling Fungus that has a good effect on enhancing the cultivation of Qi Refining stage cultivators. It is especially suitable for making spiritual meals. The apricot-yellow mushroom silk soup made from apricot-yellow mushrooms is extremely delicious and is loved by Qi Refining cultivators.
Liu Zhangxu found a total of fifteen apricot-yellow Ling Mushrooms in this patch.
However, when he walked to a distance of ten zhang from the apricot-yellow Ling Mushrooms, Liu Zhangxu used his divine sense to discover a huge Great Monster snake, as long as three zhang, with skin like withered leaves and as thick as a water bucket, lying under the tree with apricot-yellow mushrooms. It would be difficult to notice if it weren't for Liu Zhangxu's careful observation with his divine sense.
This snake is called the Withered Leaf Snake, a Rank One Middle Grade Demonic Beast. Its skin can blend with the surrounding environment, giving it strong concealment abilities.
After realizing that it had been discovered by Liu Zhangxu, the snake no longer concealed itself. Its huge body swayed and quickly approached Liu Zhangxu, shooting a water arrow containing potent poison directly at him.
As it was his first time facing a Demonic Beast, Liu Zhangxu couldn't help but feel a bit nervous, but his reaction was extremely quick. With a light sway of his body, he had already moved out of the range of the water arrow's attack.
Having dodged the snake's attack, Liu Zhangxu immediately cast a spell, and a fist-sized, scorching fireball appeared in the air, rushing towards the snake at high speed.
The snake was not slow either! With a light sway of its body, it dodged the fireball. The scorching fireball hit the bluestone behind the snake, burning a large hole in it.
One person, one snake, fighting relentlessly in this dense forest! In an instant, the forest was in chaos, as raging flames ignited many trees!
The venomous water arrows continuously sprayed by the demon snake filled the air with toxic gas!
Liu Zhangxu also felt a bit dizzy and nauseous. After taking a detoxification pill, he continued to cast spells.
Three consecutive fireballs were thrown at the demon snake. Unable to dodge in time, one scorching fireball hit the demon snake, almost burning its body to a crisp.
The injured withered leaf snake, in unbearable pain, suddenly became ferocious and launched a more fierce attack!
Liu Zhangxu could only dodge and cast spells at the same time, continuously throwing one fireball after another at the demon snake!
Liu Zhangxu is currently only at the 5th level of Qi Refining in his cultivation. As time passed, his mana became increasingly insufficient. To avoid any accidents, he took out a sound transmission talisman to call for support from his clan members.
As the captain of the demon hunting team, Liu Baichuan's most important task was to always pay attention to the safety of the clan's descendants and be able to arrive promptly when they encountered danger and needed support.
Upon receiving Liu Zhangxu's sound transmission, he immediately summoned his flying sword and rushed over quickly. With his arrival, the battle situation immediately reversed.
Liu Baichuan's Qingyue Sword continuously slashed at the withered leaf snake like streaks of green rainbow.
Under the bombardment of fireballs and flying swords, although the withered leaf snake still struggled to fight back, its strength was insufficient, and in the end, it couldn't escape the fate of being killed.
Afterwards, Liu Baichuan and Liu Zhangxu briefly discussed the distribution of spoils. Liu Baichuan obtained the Beast Core and half of the snake body, while Liu Zhangxu obtained the snake gall, snake venom, and half of the snake body.
Demonic Beasts are full of treasures. Take this withered leaf snake, for example. The Beast Core, snake gall, and snake venom can be used to refine pills, snake blood can be used to make spiritual ink, snake bones and snake skin can be used to make Law Weapons and robes, and snake meat can be used to make spiritual food. This demon snake can be sold for about 200 spirit stones.
Therefore, demon hunting has become an important means for many cultivators to obtain income in spirit stones.
However, demon hunting also carries great risks, and many cultivators have unfortunately fallen into the mouths of demons.
At this time, other clan members also arrived quickly. Seeing that the Demonic Beast had been dealt with, they left.
After Liu Zhangxu finished collecting the apricot yellow spirit mushrooms, he did not immediately set off but instead sat down and rested in place. After restoring his mana, he resumed demon hunting.
