Cultivation Begins From The Desert

Chapter 586 Falling short (100,000-word goal achieved)

Since Xu Zhengyang knew that [Crystal Ice Orchid] existed in the Boundless Snowfield, it meant that he must have been here before, and he also knew how to get to the growth place of [Crystal Ice Orchid].

Zhou Yang followed him on the snow field, sometimes flying and sometimes walking. Although the speed was not fast, he passed five or six fifth-order monsters safely by the edge of the territory, without attracting the attention of these monsters.

This shows the completely different attitudes of the Snowfield Monster Clan and Duanyun Mountain Range Monster Clan.

In the Duanyun Mountain Range, there are restraining teachings from the great demon kings on Jietian Peak. Except for a very small number of fifth-level monsters who will not deal with each other very much and become enemies with each other, most fifth-level monsters, especially those The fifth-order monsters belong to the same demon king, and they have good friendship with each other.

These fifth-level monsters will also divide their territory, but they will not completely prohibit other fifth-level monsters from entering their territory. Some herbivorous monsters will even allow carnivorous monsters to enter their territory to prey on their lower-level counterparts.

At the same time, once a fifth-level monster finds a human monk entering its territory, it will immediately judge whether to call for help based on the strength of the human monk, and once it sends out a signal for help, the fifth-level monsters in other surrounding territories will immediately come to rescue .

But the Snowfield Monster Clan is different. The living habits of the Snowfield Monster Clan are closer to those of the wild jungle monsters, and each other regards the territory as extremely important. territory.

If there is an existence of the same level as them entering its territory, it will regard it as an extremely serious provocation, and those with a bad temper will directly attack.

Regarding this situation, it's not that the sixth-level demon kings on the boundless snowfield don't want to change, but after they tried it, they found that they couldn't change it at all.

The Boundless Snowfield is not the Broken Cloud Mountain Range. The natural environment here is much harsher, and the spiritual energy is not as strong as the Broken Cloud Mountain Range. Survive yourself and your race.

Cang is honest and knows etiquette. It is obviously unrealistic for the Xueyuan monsters to do things like "Wolf Friends Lu Gong" when they can't even eat enough.

And it's not that their monster clan is dominant here, the Bingyi people who also live on the snowfield are more powerful than their snowfield monster clan.

Not to mention that they are bordered by Liuyunzhou Immortal Cultivation World and Beiting Continent Immortal Cultivation World on both north and south sides, and the human monks in these two places, including the Bingyi people, would not be willing to have another monster race in Duanyun Mountain Range.

For these reasons, the sixth-level monster kings on the boundless snowfield can at most restrain those high-level monsters a little, so that they will not kill each other.

For this reason, the fifth-level monsters in the boundless snowfield rarely go to the edge of the territory. There is usually a large buffer area between two fifth-level monsters.

Xu Zhengyang took advantage of this and led Zhou Yang through these buffer areas, passing through several fifth-order monster territories without being discovered.

All this seems very simple, but Zhou Yang knows that behind the seemingly simple actions is the result of countless attempts.

There is a buffer area between the territories of high-level monsters, and many monks may know it, but how to distinguish the edge of the territory of two fifth-level monsters and know where the buffer zone is is a difficult task that requires repeated exploration and observation.

Zhou Yang didn't believe that Xu Zhengyang, who was far away in Xuanyang Xianzong, would have the time to do such things on this snowy field.

So the other party should have obtained a detailed map from other people in advance, and then tried it once or twice according to the map, and then took him on this road after confirming that the route was safe.

As for where Xu Zhengyang's map came from, and how he learned that there is a "Crystal Ice Orchid" in the depths of the snow field, that is not something Zhou Yang needs to care about.

On the way, Xu Zhengyang also explained to him why he was asked for help instead of other Xuanyang Xianzong monks.

In addition to asking him for help, there is no need to owe favors, another reason is because his "Qianyang True Fire" supernatural power can restrain the [Frost Wolf King], restraining the two natural supernatural powers of the [Frost Wolf King] .

In this way, Zhou Yang and Xu Zhengyang arrived at their destination, outside a vast coniferous pine forest, after spending more than a month without encountering any danger.

This place is located at a depth of more than 100,000 miles in the boundless snowfield. The pine trees in the coniferous pine forest are all ancient pine trees that have grown for thousands of years. Each tree is tens of feet high, and the trunk is harder than iron wood.

But without the growth of spiritual energy, even if these pine trees grow for tens of thousands of years, they are still ordinary wood, and it is impossible to become spiritual wood.

"There are two fifth-order bear demons in this forest, but the bear demons often fall asleep, so the wolves will often invade its territory to hunt after they are full and asleep, but those can only be led by demon wolves below the fifth rank. Otherwise, it will stimulate and wake up the sleeping bear demon."

"We have to wait until the bear demon in the forest falls asleep and the wolves enter the forest to hunt, and quickly enter their lair. At that time, the guards in the lair are at their weakest."

In the bitter cold wind, Xu Zhengyang pointed to the snow-covered pine forest in the distance, and said his plan in a deep voice.

Zhou Yang frowned slightly when he heard what he said, and couldn't help asking: "How long will I have to wait? If it takes a long time, the younger generation suggests that it is better to kill them directly. It is just some third- and fourth-order demon wolves, at most It’s just a little extra effort, it won’t affect the overall situation.”

He was always worried about leaving Xiao Ying alone in Chongxuan Mountain, so if he could go back as soon as possible, he didn't want to delay any longer.

"It won't take long, as short as one month, as long as two or three months, it will definitely be enough."

Xu Zhengyang shook his head, apparently disagreeing with Zhou Yang's suggestion to kill him directly.

It's not that he doesn't believe in Zhou Yang's strength, but that [Crystal Ice Orchid] is extremely important to him, and it must be successful once, otherwise, [Frost Wolf King] will probably use this item in advance.

"Then just wait."

Zhou Yang glanced at him, didn't say anything more, it was a tacit agreement.

The facts were exactly as Xu Zhengyang said. After waiting with him for more than a month, Zhou Yang heard the ear-piercing howling of wolves, which was the horn sound of the wolves starting to hunt and attack.

"Go, follow me."

Xu Zhengyang opened his eyes, stood up abruptly from the ground, quickly flew up into the clouds and flew towards the Bingjian Canyon where the [Frost Wolf King] lived.

After Zhou Yang followed him and flew for more than half an hour, a huge ice stream with a width of thousands of feet and an unknown number of miles appeared in front of him. System, wolves usually live in those water-soluble ice caves.

However, if [Frost Wolf King] wants to protect that [Crystal Ice Orchid], it can only live in the ice valley where the [Crystal Ice Orchid] grows.

Xu Zhengyang and Zhou Yang came in a menacing manner, and they didn't hide any aura at all. After they entered the thousand-mile range of the [Frost Wolf King], they were already sensed by the Wolf King.

Immediately, the wolf king sensed the danger, and without hesitation let out a wolf howl to call the wolves from all directions to gather towards him.

However, those wolves who went to hunt in the forest were too far away. Even if they returned immediately after receiving the signal, they would not be able to arrive within two or three hours.

Such a long time is enough for Xu Zhengyang and Zhou Yang to end the battle.

For today's Zhou Yang, a quarter of an hour is enough to travel a thousand miles away, and soon he saw the huge [Frost Wolf King] in the ice stream below.

The body of this monster is more than fifty feet long, and it stands seventeen or eight feet high. The white wolf hairs on its body are three or four feet long, and they are as hard as black iron. Pull one out and refine it a little. You can get a nice flying needle tool.

Next to it, there is a "Great Frost Wolf" about one-third smaller than it. That is its spouse, a fifth-level middle-grade "Great Frost Wolf".

Aww——

Howling wolves sounded, and what greeted Zhou Yang and Xu Zhengyang were ice thorns and ice spears overwhelming the sky.

"Frost Giant Wolf" is a Tier 3 monster when it grows up, and the Tier 3 mid-tier ice spell "Ice Spear" is their favorite spell. When the wolves are dispatched together, the overwhelming ice spears are like a rain of arrows towards the front Shooting past, it is easy to nail the prey to the snow, waiting for them to come forward to harvest.

Although nearly half of the adult giant wolves in the wolf pack had gone hunting in the pine forest at this time, there were more than two hundred adult "Frost Giant Wolves" who followed the wolf king's call to escort them, and among them were fifteen fourth-order demon wolves. .

These monster wolves have long been centered on the wolf king, lurking in the upper and lower corners of the Bingjian Canyon, their bodies and the surrounding environment are integrated.

At this time, taking advantage of Zhou Yang and Xu Zhengyang's arrival, they obeyed the order of the wolf king and launched an offensive together.

In the face of overwhelming ice picks and ice spears, Zhou Yang has several methods to protect himself, but he chose the seemingly most dangerous, but in fact the safest method, to resist with his body!

With a low shout, pieces of blue-gold dragon scales suddenly grew out of his body, forming a one-piece scale armor covering the whole body, covering all parts except eyes, mouth, and ears.

After those ice picks and ice spears hit him, they couldn't leave any scars on his body except for the crisp sound of breaking and smashing.

Only the attacks of some fourth-order wolf monsters can leave a little mark on those green-gold dragon scales, but Zhou Yang only needs to turn his mana, and these marks will disappear instantly.

On the other hand, although Xu Zhengyang blocked these attacks by relying on a fifth-tier high-grade defensive magic weapon, his mana consumption was much higher than his.

This is the advantage of physical training over legal training.

A physique with a strong physical body like Zhou Yang can completely ignore and be immune to any third-level magic attacks, and can also reduce 99% of the damage from most fourth-level magic.

This point is absolutely impossible for a pure Dharma cultivator like Xu Zhengyang.

The physical strength of ordinary Jindan monks is about the same as that of Tier 3 monsters. If they don't defend themselves, Tier 3 spells are enough to cause considerable damage to them.

That's why Zhou Yang said more than a month ago that there were only a few Tier 3 and Tier 4 monsters, no matter how many there were, there was nothing to fear.

But the attack of the wolves was just a feint, as a cover, the real main attack was [Frost Wolf King] and his spouse.

When Zhou Yang and Xu Zhengyang were responding to those feint attacks, the two giant wolves in the canyon opened their mouths and howled at the same time, spitting out two balls of frost formed by extremely cold air and bombarding them.

Immediately after a flash of white shadows, the two giant wolves had already left the Bingjian Canyon, and rushed straight at the two humans in the sky like two white lightning bolts.

Zhou Yang didn't dare to resist with his body anymore this time. With a thought, he mobilized the power of "Qianyang Orb" and released the magical power of "Qianyang Sky Fire Shield".

The ball of frost collided with the golden flame shield, instantly dissipating a burst of blue-white extremely cold air that wanted to freeze the shield and Zhou Yang inside, but under the burning of the "Qianyang True Fire" that was as strong as the sun, This extremely cold air was quickly evaporated like rootless water.

At this moment, a huge wolf claw suddenly slapped on the golden flame shield, and immediately sent Zhou Yang and the shield flying hundreds of feet away.

Then before he could stabilize his body, another wolf paw came up and sent him flying again.

"You're not done yet, are you?"

Zhou Yang was furious, and suddenly took the initiative to remove the shield, then shook his hands into a fist, and punched fiercely at the wolf claw that came for the third time.

He was only six feet tall, and his fist was only as big as a casserole pot, but the wolf's claws were bigger than an iron pot, and a toe was as thick as his arm.

But this time, the result of the intersection of the fists and claws was that the two sides flew upside down together, and the owner of the wolf claw even let out a painful cry of "Aww".

Zhou Yang also let out a muffled groan, but he is a human being, and the difference between a human being and a monster is that he will not easily show the pain to the enemy. Make a sound.

And after he moved back to the situation with a punch, he immediately waved his sleeves, released several magic weapons, and launched a counterattack.

What Zhou Yang was fighting with was the consort of [Frost Wolf King]. "The two fifth-order high-grade instruments soon left a series of hideous scars on its body.

It's just that the wolf demon is too big, as long as it's not a wound on a vital part, it can't cause serious damage to it in a short time, let alone kill it.

Aww~!

When the wolf king who was fighting with Xu Zhengyang found that his spouse was injured, he howled angrily.

Immediately, the dozen or so fourth-tier "Frost Wolves" and more than two hundred third-tier "Frost Wolves" who were still far away from releasing spells to assist their attacks suddenly opened their mouths and howled, and spit out the most brilliant Pure frost and extreme cold air.

After the frosty air was spewed out, those "giant frost wolves" suddenly looked sluggish like eggplants beaten by frost.

For the "Frost Giant Wolf" that has not reached the fifth level, this kind of frosty and extremely cold air is equivalent to the blood essence of the immortal cultivator. The juncture will not be used.

But now that the wolf king has an order, they can only spit out the frost and extreme cold air that is regarded as life, to help the wolf king and the wolf queen defeat the enemy.

I saw the streams of frosty and extremely cold air being spewed out by the wolves, and immediately absorbed into the body by the wolf king and wolf queen, and then the mana breath of the two demon wolves rose sharply in an instant.

The wolf king is already a fifth-rank top-rank monster, and his aura has not risen significantly. As a fifth-rank middle-rank monster, the wolf queen, with the help of those frosty and extremely cold air, has directly climbed to the same level as the fifth-rank top-rank. The level of monsters is quite high, although it is only the weakest fifth-level top-grade monster.

At the same time, white light flashed on the bodies of the two giant wolves, and they quickly put on a piece of frost armor that was as crystal clear as ice.

The defensive power of the frost armor is abnormal, Zhou Yang's "Taiyin Zanpakuto" is so sharp, it can only leave a knife mark no more than a foot deep, but the thickness of the armor is close to three feet!

If it's just like this, it's fine. What's more abnormal is that the knife marks slashed by the silver long knife, after the long knife leaves, will soon return to the original state with the surge of the demon wolf's mana.

In this way, Zhou Yang encountered the embarrassing situation that the wolves encountered before.

He couldn't break through the demon wolf's defense, but the demon wolf was able to completely let go of its hands and feet and attack him with all its strength.

"It's no wonder that Xu Zhengyang insisted on asking me for help instead of looking for other people. The wolf king and wolf queen have this trick in their hands. Even if he finds a golden core ninth-level monk, it will probably be difficult to break through this layer of frost armor."

Zhou Yang was secretly surprised in his heart, and the expression on his face suddenly became more dignified.

drink!

With a solemn expression, he let out a low drink, injected mana into the "Qianyang Orb" in his body, and instantly used the enhanced version of "Qianyang True Fire".

Then he waved his hand, and the golden flames fell on the two magical artifacts, "Scorching Sun Burning Spear" and "Qianyang Golden Pagoda", and attacked the wolf queen using the magical artifacts as carriers.

What's more, he himself was bathed in golden flames, and he swung his fists across the sky and rushed at the wolf queen, intending to fight hand-to-hand with the fifth-rank top-rank monster!

The collision of the ice and the flames soon had a result.

The "Qianyang True Fire" is as strong as the sun, and the flame strengthened by the "Qianyang Orb" is even more powerful.

Under the blessing of the golden flame, the "Scorching Sun Burning Spear" finally broke through the three-foot thick frost armor on the Wolf Queen's body, and pierced a large wound on his body. The power of yang, like the tarsal maggots, tried its best to infiltrate and destroy the wolf queen.

Then the "Golden Pagoda of Qianyang" came across the sky, and smashed the tail of the "Scorching Sun Burning Heart Spear" like a hammer, and drove the seven-foot-long spear into the wolf's back like a nail. There was more than one foot in the body, and the tip of the gun pierced deeply into the abdominal cavity of the wolf queen.

Aww~!

The wounded wolf queen let out a miserable howl, and then ignoring the spear still stuck in her body, the wolf rushed towards Zhou Yang madly with murderous intent in its eyes.

Soon, with the hand-to-hand combat with Zhou Yang, the golden flame once again made it taste the bitter fruit.

Under the burning of the golden flame, the indestructible frost armor on its body quickly became thinner with the naked eye.

"You beast, die!"

Zhou Yang shouted sharply and launched a strong counterattack.

And this time, in order to prevent the wolves from borrowing power from the wolves again, he waved the spirit beast ring in his hand, and released the "Golden Winged Thunder Eagle" that had been promoted to a fourth-level top-grade monster beast to harass and attack those monster wolves.

The mature "Golden Winged Thunder Eagle" not only possesses powerful thunder spell supernatural powers, but also masters the "Thunder Escape Technique", a powerful escape technique comparable to teleportation. Yang didn't have to worry about its safety at all.

Sure enough, after the "Golden Winged Thunder Eagle" was released, it did not feel afraid because of the large number of enemies. Instead, it fluttered its wings full of excitement, let out a loud eagle cry, and took the initiative to pounce on the pack of wolves.

Eagles attack wolves.

In normal times, Zhou Yang might still be in the mood to take a good look at this good scene.

But now, he could only pour out all his firepower on the wolf queen.

He couldn't help but be like this, because Xu Zhengyang had been suppressed too hard by the wolf king, and he was completely at a disadvantage.

If he didn't get rid of the wolf as soon as possible and help, Xu Zhengyang would have to slip away first, and then their operation would be a complete failure.

Although even if he fails, Zhou Yang does not need to take responsibility, but in the end he ran for nothing after traveling for two million miles. This result is somewhat unacceptable to him.

At this time, the Wolf Queen had already been severely injured by his previous shot, and at this time the Frost Armor was restrained by him again.

In the current situation, it depends on whoever can't hold it first, the wolf queen or Xu Zhengyang, and whichever can't hold it first will be the one that loses.

Half an hour later, after all, the wolf queen was the first to retreat. After Zhou Yang cut off a wolf's leg with a knife, she howled and ran to the wolf king for help.

Obviously, the wolf king couldn't just sit back and watch the wolf queen be killed by Zhou Yang. He could only spare part of his strength to help the wolf queen while dealing with Xu Zhengyang.

But with Zhou Yang's intervention, the frost armor on it quickly began to melt.

After continuing to fight like this for another quarter of an hour, the wolf king suddenly let out a wolf howl, signaling to retreat.

Immediately, the severely wounded wolves retreated from the battlefield first, and fled into the deep ice caves in the ice creek, and then those monster wolves that besieged the "Golden Winged Thunder Eagle" also stopped attacking one after another, each looking for the nearest ice cave. The hole went in.

Seeing this, Zhou Yang frowned, and wanted to call Xu Zhengyang to keep the wolf king.

But when Xu Zhengyang saw this situation, he shouted first: "Let it go, our goal is [Crystal Ice Orchid]!"

After speaking, he himself rushed to the Bingjian valley where the wolf king was before, as if he was afraid that the wolf king would destroy the spiritual object before retreating.

Without his help, Zhou Yang was not sure to keep the wolf king alone, so he could only watch helplessly as he jumped off the ice stream and disappeared into an ice cave.

"Pity!"

In the sky, Zhou Yang shook his head and sighed softly. With a regretful face, he took the "Golden Winged Thunder Eagle" back into the spirit beast ring, and then fell towards the ice valley.

[Frost Wolf King] is a fifth-rank top-grade monster. If he can kill this beast, he can completely leave behind the most precious demon core and demon soul based on his contribution in this battle. It was nothing.

It's a pity that Xu Zhengyang is not willing to work hard with him, so he can only do nothing.

Of course, he would not accuse Xu Zhengyang of anything because of this. From Xu Zhengyang's point of view, it was undoubtedly the most appropriate choice to make.

He came to snatch [Crystal Ice Orchid] for the purpose of prolonging his lifespan. Now that he can successfully achieve his goal, he is of course unwilling to risk his life to kill the wolf king.

If they were in a hurry, if the wolf king gave them a self-explosive demon pill, no one would be sure that they would be able to survive.

In the Bingjian Valley, Xu Zhengyang has already started picking the 【Crystal Ice Orchid】.

This life-prolonging spiritual creature grows on a huge "Ice Crystal Profound Jade" in the valley, and its roots are deeply embedded in the "Ice Crystal Profound Jade". It also takes a lot of effort to come out.

It was precisely because of this that he and Zhou Yang had to defeat the wolf king and the wolf queen first, instead of asking Zhou Yang to help him entangle the two demon wolves and pick the spiritual things alone.

"Fellow Daoist Zhou, Xu's goal is only this [Crystal Ice Orchid]. The other spirits here belong to you. If you want to come to the lair of two fifth-order monsters, there should be more than just this [Crystal Ice Orchid]."

Probably also felt that it was inappropriate for Zhou Yangbai to make a trip. Seeing him coming down, Xu Zhengyang just watched him pick [Crystal Ice Orchid], couldn't help smiling apologetically at him, and offered a compensation plan.

"Then the junior will not be polite to the senior."

Zhou Yang pondered for a moment, then responded with a smile.

However, just as he was about to look for other spiritual creatures nearby, his face suddenly became condensed, as if he had discovered something, and he sternly shouted towards a certain place in the ice stream: "Who is watching there? Get out !"

Before he finished speaking, a fireball had already been thrown by him with a wave of his sleeve.

The goal of 100,000 words has been achieved this week. I don’t know if there are any more in the early morning, but even if there is no, I will definitely make up for it during the day tomorrow. Finally, I recommend an author friend's new book "Fox Fairy Please Respect Yourself", the old Si Ji's daily life, sweet pet dog food can eat all you can! The fox's repayment... Or, the domineering fox always falls in love with me?
