Cultivation Of Coders

Chapter 164 Encounter

Zhang Deming looked into the distance, listening to the faint sounds of fighting and the roars of beasts one after another. He frowned slightly, thinking about Qing Xiaolu's words before, and asked:

"Are the monsters in the forest at night going berserk?"

Qing Xiaolu nodded and said: "Well, not only will it be violent, but it will also become very weird."

Zhang Deming was slightly taken aback, that's why he told him not to go out when it was dark? Not to scare children?

"This also appeared together with the mutation of your race?" Zhang Deming asked.

Qing Xiaolu nodded again and said: "Well, it should be that the last king paid the price with his life. Before he died, he said that the secret realm was dead and all the water sources were polluted."

The cost of life?

Tianyan numerology or word prophecy?

"Then, how do you survive now?" Zhang Deming asked.

"The clan elder and Xiao Zi are responsible for the water source in the clan." Qing Xiaolu said.

Zhang Deming paused for a moment, then suddenly asked: "Water magic talent?"

Flower demon elves and demihumans are the same as monsters, they are born with the blood of magic.

Of course, because of their natural bloodlines, it is extremely difficult for them to learn spells. Even spells developed from the same origin are very difficult.

For example, Qing Xiaolu's talent is the basic Rank Two growth technique.

Zhang Deming gave him the current Rank Two Growth Technique and Rank Three Growth Technique, and it is impossible for him to learn it.

As for the development techniques of different series, it is simply impossible to learn the difficulty.

Qing Xiaolu nodded and said: "Yes!"

While the two were chatting, the roar of the beast in the distance continued.

"Big brother, do you want to take a look? The movement doesn't look like a simple battle between monsters and beasts." Qing Xiaolu asked after listening to the movement.

Zhang Deming shook his head and said, "No, don't care about our business, don't mind your own business."

"But..." Qing Xiaolu wanted to argue.

"It's nothing. Didn't you say you want to be my servant elf? Then I have the final say." Before Qing Xiaolu could finish speaking, Zhang Deming cut off the other party's continued words.

Qing Xiaolu lowered her head, and finally stopped talking, and the two listened quietly to the movement in the distance.

After a long time, a huge beast roar, accompanied by a powerful aura, erupted at the same time.

Immediately, everything fell into silence.

Zhang Deming frowned slightly. The movement looked very human. Could it be the fellow disciples who entered together?

After most of the day, a lot of people should have come in.

By the way, how big is this secret realm?

After entering at least tens of thousands of people, Zhang Deming only discovered a suspected fluctuation until now.

If divided according to this density, the breadth of this secret realm alone is comparable to the area of ​​the entire mountain gate of the Heavenly Spirit Sect.

As the movement stopped, Zhang Deming observed again for a moment, turned around and said: "It's okay, go back to sleep."

Hearing this, Qing Xiaolu nodded and turned back to the tree trunk. Zhang Deming, who was about to jump down and return to the tent, paused slightly.

He quickly took out a small notebook from his pocket and clicked on a light screen.

There was no detailed map like the outside world on the light screen, and the surrounding area was completely dark. It only showed the areas that Zhang Deming had walked through during this period.

Zhang Deming turned on the recording function and recorded this bit by bit.

At this moment, in addition to the light spot representing himself, a small green dot actually appeared in a dark area a few kilometers away from him.

This is?

Zhang Deming looked at the little green dot with a hint of silence in his eyes.

Then he reached out and tapped the small green dot in the dark area on the map.

On the map, there was a small green dot that was moving quickly and was about to run out of the connecting range. There was a sudden pause.

As if it sensed something, its direction of movement changed instantly, heading straight towards Zhang Deming.

After a while, the little green dots came around and slowed down.

Zhang Deming stood quietly on the tree and removed the concealment formation outside the rattan with a wave of his hand.

At this time, in the dense forest, a very embarrassed figure slowly walked out as the concealment formation was removed.

The moment he saw the figure, Zhang Deming smiled, jumped off the branch, and stepped forward: "It seems that you have had a very colorful life these days!"

When Li Shifan saw Zhang Deming, his tense expression suddenly relaxed, and his body stumbled suddenly.

Zhang Deming stretched out his hand to support the other party, was slightly startled, and said in astonishment: "So exaggerated?"

Zhang Deming originally thought that the other party was just a little embarrassed.

As a result, when he reached out, he discovered that the other party was not only seriously injured, but also had less than 20% of his spiritual power.

With Li Shifan's current level of cultivation and swordsmanship, to make him like this, his opponent would not be very strong.

Li Shifan smiled bitterly and said: "The one who was injured by the ghost vine had to wear it out with great difficulty.

In addition, along the way, the monster suddenly became violent at night, and it became like this.

But you, senior brother, are really unscathed! "

Zhang Deming paused slightly and said, "You also came from the sea of ​​flowers?"

Li Shifan smiled and said, "Senior brother, too."

Zhang Deming looked at Li Shifan's expression and said, "So this is not random?"

Li Shifan did not answer Zhang Deming's question immediately, but asked: "Senior brother, can you see anyone else here these days?"

Zhang Deming shook his head, his expression changed, and he said, "So it's not because the place is so wide?"

Li Shifan said: "This place is really big, but there should be only two of us here now."

Zhang Deming heard this and asked puzzledly: "Why?"

Li Shifan smiled and said, "Senior brother, do you still remember the name of the technique we practice?"

Zhang Deming frowned slightly, thinking for a moment, his eyes flickered, and then he said in surprise: "You mean the Aoki Soul Refining Technique is..."

Li Shifan nodded and said: "Yes, the Aoki Soul Refining Technique is the orthodox core introductory technique of the Aoki faction in the Five Elements Blessed Land.

My ancestor got it by chance.

It is also for this reason that when we entered the secret realm, we did not start with the peripheral assessment like the previous Turtle Water Secret Realm, but were sent directly into this area.

Because in the detection of the secret realm, we should be normal disciples of the Aoki faction.

I just didn't expect that the Aoki Secret Realm would become so dangerous now. "

Zhang Deming was suddenly enlightened after hearing this. No wonder he didn't see anyone for a long time, and he didn't even feel the battle.

He directly took the back door of love, and the peripheral assessment of the secret realm was directly avoided by him.

Did this guy's words just now also tell him the reason why he is so familiar with the secret realm?

······

While the two were talking, Zhang Deming had already supported Li Shifan and sat down under the tree pocket.

A green emerald vine grew out, and several emerald leaves swayed out.

A thick breath of life emerged from the leaves, although the therapeutic effect of the growth technique was not too strong.

But now it is a Rank Three spell. No matter how strong it is, it is still far superior to the professional Rank One spell.

Zhang Deming picked off the leaves on the rattan, and the entire rattan turned into a point of light.

"Hey, I'm not very good at healing, this is better than nothing." Zhang Deming put a few emerald leaves in front of Li Shifan, and said.

Li Shifan directly put the leaf in his mouth, and the leaf melted in his mouth, turning into a warm current to heal the injury.

After swallowing the leaves, he meditated and said, "It's already very good. At least it's many times better than when I knew how to use a sword."

Zhang Deming looked at Li Shifan and said, "You'd better concentrate on healing your wounds quickly, you can't even count as a business compliment.

It's so embarrassing for you to show off your dirty feet. If you're not embarrassed, I'm still embarrassed. "

Li Shifan's already stiff smile froze completely, and he said after a while: "Brother, you are still so funny."

Zhang Deming looked at Li Shifan's expression and said, "You want to mean something mean to me!"

Li Shifan paused, shook his head, simply closed his eyes, and concentrated on regulating his breath.

He felt that if the conversation continued, his iceberg character would pop!

Zhang Deming looked at Li Shifan and smiled strangely.

"Brother, is this your companion?" Qing Xiaolu, who was scared to hide by Li Shifan, flew down, looked at Li Shifan and asked.

Li Shifan's eyes that had just been closed suddenly opened. The flashing cold light scared Qing Xiaolu and he ducked away and disappeared into the tree again. "Don't get excited, it's a flower demon." Zhang Deming looked at Li Shifan and said.

"Flower Fairy? The gardener in charge of the Qingmu Secret Realm?" Li Shifan said as he looked at Qing Xiaolu, who was hiding and peeking at him with only his head exposed.

Zhang Deming nodded and said: "It seems that you know a lot about the ruins of the Five Elements Blessed Land."

Li Shifan did not deny it, nodded and said: "That's right, after all, the ancestor has collected a lot of information, and I had planned to enter here before.

However, the entrance is different, and the place of entry is also somewhat different. "

Zhang Deming suddenly realized that Li Shifan had indeed invited him to enter the secret realm together when they met before.

"So the last time the Turtle Water Broken Secret Realm was also part of the Five Elements Blessed Land?" Zhang Deming asked.

Li Shifan nodded hesitantly and said, "It should be."

Seeing the other party's concise answer, Zhang Deming paused for a moment and did not continue to ask. Instead, he turned around and said:

"Come down, he is my companion, don't be afraid. Looking at your timid appearance, didn't you just want to run out and watch the fun?"

"I don't want to watch the fun, I just want to see if I can help." Qing Xiaolu popped her head and argued.

Zhang Deming looked at him, shook his head, and stopped arguing with him.

He looked back at Li Shifan and said, "Did you make the noise just now?"

Li Shifan nodded, then looked at the surrounding layout, and said: "It seems that the night in the secret realm is exactly as I guessed, with some weird changes."

Zhang Deming smiled and said: "Well, I also listened to this little guy's words and ended up like this.

Seeing you like this, I think this little guy is of some use. "

"What? They are already very useful!" Qing Xiaolu argued unconvinced.

"Okay, you are very useful." Zhang Deming turned around and said.

Zhang Deming and Li Shifan who were speaking paused together and looked up at the forest.

Zhang Deming said: "You didn't shake your tail?"

Li Shifan shook his head and said: "Impossible. The violent monster that I was tracking has been killed by me."

At this time, Qing Xiaolu's weak voice sounded behind the two of them: "Brother, have you disposed of the body?

It would be troublesome if not! Because the monsters that live at night are not the most terrifying. "

"What?" Li Shifan turned around and asked in confusion.

"I think I probably understand what he wants to say." Zhang Deming's eyes flashed with light as he looked at the dense forest in the distance and said.

When Li Shifan heard this, he also turned to look at the dense forest.

At this time, there was a shaking in the dense forest, and a strange figure slowly appeared in front of several people. After Li Shifan saw his image clearly, his pupils shrank for a while.

In the dense forest, the head and body of a monster beast that resembled a leopard slowly appeared in the sight of several people.

That's right, the body and head appeared slowly.

The monster beast that originally looked like a leopard should have been beheaded by Li Shifan's sword.

But now, octopus-like tentacles grow under the leopard's head. The tentacles are shaped like an octopus and sparkle with metallic spots.

The leopard's body and the broken neck also have several tentacles.

Different from the tentacles on the leopard head, there are eight tentacles on the neck without the suckers of the octopus tentacles.

Six of them were covered with densely packed mouths full of fangs, and the remaining two were covered with densely packed eyes.

At this moment, looking at the mutated beast that he didn't know whether to call one or two, Li Shifan sensed its more powerful aura, swallowed his saliva, and said:

"I think I roughly understand it. So at night in the secret realm, monsters cannot be killed?"

Qing Xiaolu said: "No, hundreds of years ago, after the mutation started.

Gradually, most monsters no longer live at night.

All monsters active at night are mutated and very strange.

If you want to kill, you have to kill completely and then destroy the body. "

Before the three of them could continue to communicate, the strange tentacle monster had already attacked several people.

The slightly weaker octopus-shaped leopard head jumped towards Li Shifan, and the leopard body rushed towards Zhang Deming.

Looking at the leopard's body, the mouth and eyes densely covered with eight tentacles, Zhang Deming felt a little scared. At first glance, this thing was not a simple character.

The emerald vines surrounding the trees quickly came to life, and the tips of the vines flashed with cold light as they stabbed towards the leopard's body.

At the first contact, Zhang Deming frowned slightly.

The first time the emerald vines came into contact with the tentacles, the six tentacles with their sealed fangs chewed the vines into pieces.

Instantly, Zhang Deming felt a cold and strange aura, invading the vines along the wound.

The emerald vines began to turn gray in an instant, their expressions changed, and they immediately spoke:

"Be careful. The mutation in this secret realm seems to be more difficult to deal with than the mutation in the Hengduan Mountains outside. In addition to the violence, it also adds a lot of weirdness."

Hearing this, Li Shifan nodded, and quickly made seals with his hands. Two small swords made of spiritual power appeared beside him, spinning rapidly around him.
