Chapter 230 Inner Mountain
Before Mo Hua entered the inner mountain, Elder Yu secretly gave him a demon hunting order.
"If you take this, you will be considered an official monster hunter."
Mo Hua was stunned for a moment, "Can I become a demon hunter without going through the demon hunting ceremony?"
First he guarded the spirit mine, and later he built a weapon refining shop and an alchemy shop. After so many things, he was busy practicing and drawing formations on weekdays, so he missed the demon hunting ceremony this year.
Moreover, he is a spiritual cultivator and an array master, and he will basically not fight with monsters in close quarters. Strictly speaking, he is not suitable to be a monster hunter.
"Those are all false gifts. It doesn't matter. I have the final say whether you are a monster hunter or not. I say you are the one!"
Elder Yu spoke righteously and confidently.
He was the only foundation-building monk in the demon hunting business, and it was indeed him who had the final say.
Elder Yu personally hung the Demon Hunting Order around Mo Hua's neck, "This Demon Hunting Order is the most critical. If you have the Demon Hunting Order, you are a genuine demon hunter."
"Put a drop of blood on it." Elder Yu said again.
Mo Hua was stunned for a moment.
Elder Yu saw Mo Hua's thin skin and tender flesh. He thought for a moment and said, "Forget it, I'll help you."
Elder Yu picked up Mo Hua's white little hand, condensed his spiritual power into a thin needle, and pricked Mo Hua's index finger. A drop of blood dripped out and fell on Mo Hua's demon hunting order.
Mo Hua held his finger in his mouth, and the bleeding stopped after a while.
At the same time, his spiritual consciousness trembled slightly, seeming to resonate with the Demon Hunting Order, creating a certain sense of intimacy, as if this bone order was no longer a dead object, but a part of the maintenance of his spiritual consciousness.
"Is this a blood confession?"
"That's true, but this Demon Hunting Order is not a magical weapon with spiritual consciousness, so it's a bit reluctant to claim the owner with blood. At most, it can be regarded as... claiming it with a seal."
"Oh." Mo Hua nodded.
Then he touched the demon hunting order and asked curiously: "Elder Yu, how on earth was this demon hunting order made?"
Elder Yu found a chair and sat down, poured himself a cup of tea and said:
"It was passed down from the ancestors of the demon hunters. It is said that there are many bone trees growing in the world. This tree has the blood of the ancient demon. It is both a demon and a tree. It looks like a tree, but the trunk is bones and the branches are
Bones, even leaves are bone fragments.”
"The Demon Hunting Token is made of the bone wood from the bone tree. Once a monster is killed, the Bone Token will sense it and produce bleeding marks, which will be counted as the monster hunter's meritorious service in killing the monster."
"The more and denser the bloodstains are, the higher the merit will be. When you go out and brag to others, you will have more cards."
Mo Hua's little face was complicated, "Is this just for bragging..."
"It's mainly used to show your qualifications. The monster hunting orders for veterans and novices are completely different. Of course, it's also very convenient for bragging."
Elder Yu raised his eyebrows and said to Mo Hua:
"If you go out and brag about how many monsters you have killed in your life, without proof, who will believe it? This monster hunting order is the proof. If you take it out, it will be covered with blood marks. If you start bragging again, you will be more confident.
"
Judging from Elder Yu's appearance, he probably brags a lot...
Mo Hua asked again: "Can we do this monster hunting order ourselves?"
Elder Yu shook his head, "No, this is done by Dao Ting and distributed uniformly. Even though they all look the same, Dao Ting actually has a record of each demon hunting order and cannot be faked."
I looked over the ink painting over and over, but couldn't find any marks, and I don't know what Ting based his record on.
Is it some special formation?
Elder Yu secretly said to Mo Hua again: "Yours is special. It is made from the bone wood in the center of the annual rings of the bone tree. I have hidden it for decades and I am not willing to give it away."
Mo Hua suddenly felt that the monster hunting order was heavy, "Why don't you leave it to Uncle Yu and the others?"
Elder Yu snorted, "I'm too lazy to give it to my idiot son."
Ink painting is a bit deserved.
Elder Yu said: "Actually, it doesn't matter. Whether it's branches or leaves, the effect is the same if it grows on a bone tree. It's just a little more particular. Don't take it to heart."
Mo Hua felt a little relieved and nodded.
"Put it away, don't throw it away." Elder Yu ordered.
"good!"
In addition to the warm elixir given by Mr. Feng, Mo Hua now has a demon hunting order made of demon bone on his neck.
The next day, Mo Hua packed up and went into the inner mountain with Mo Shan.
There are miasma and poisonous swamps in the inner mountains, which are much more toxic than those in the outer mountains.
As long as you are careful in the outer mountains, it's okay even if you don't prepare elixirs, but in the inner mountains, elixirs are indispensable.
There are various medicine bottles in the storage bag of the ink painting, including the Miasma Pill, the Dudu Pill, the Qingxin Pill, the Hemostasis Pill, etc.
This large package of elixirs was prepared for him by Mr. Feng.
In addition, there were some dried meat, wine and cakes prepared by her mother for him.
So at dawn, Mo Hua got ready to go, had a quick bite, and then entered Dahei Mountain with Mo Shan.
They trekked all the way through the outer mountains and arrived at the inner mountains.
Mo Hua took a Miasma-preventing Pill and then looked at the environment inside the mountain.
The terrain of the inner mountains is more complex, the trees are denser, the mountain roads are more rugged, and it is harder to identify the direction.
The miasma is strong and the fog is thick and thin.
When the fog is heavy, you can barely see your hands and fingers. After taking a few steps, it may all dissipate. After taking a few more steps, the surroundings may be shrouded in thick fog again.
Quite weird.
Mo Shandao: "When you see thick fog in the distance, try to avoid it. If you can't avoid it, be more careful. Don't take unfamiliar roads. It's better to wait for a while than to act rashly..."
"Otherwise, it is easy to lose direction, stray into the depths of the mountains and forests, and encounter unknown dangers."
Mo Hua nodded.
The inner mountain is much larger than the outer mountain. Even Mo Mountain, after hunting monsters in the inner mountain for so many years, has never visited every corner.
So he could only take the ink painting and walk along the main mountain road to familiarize himself with the environment of the inner mountain.
Once you are in danger, you just need to know where to run. If you get lost, you just need to know how to get out of the mountain and how to get home.
The inner mountains are complex and the terrain is rugged. The two of them walked for a while and rested for a while.
When resting, Mo Hua would take out the map and add drawings on it.
He asked for this map from Elder Yu. It was originally very simple, with only the topography of the mountains and rough mountain roads marked, and nothing else.
So Mo Hua wanted to improve the map of Uchiyama.
He had done this before in the mountains. It not only helped him get familiar with the environment, but also made it easier to collect herbs, spices and ores. When there was an emergency in the mountains, it would be much more convenient to have a map for comparison.
It took about half a month to walk the main mountain road several times, and Mo Hua became familiar with the environment inside the mountain.
His inner mountain map was also outlined and many things were added.
What Mo Hua needs to do next is to first arrange the restoration of Sinan's son and mother.
Mo Hua is a formation master, so he still wouldn't feel at ease if he didn't use point formations in the inner mountains.
With Sinan's mother and son back in formation, he can sense the fluctuations in spiritual power, which not only makes it easier for him to join in the fun, but also makes it easier for him to predict in advance and run away in advance.
It is more convenient for him to bleed monsters.
Mo Hua couldn't do this kind of thing alone, so he asked some uncles who were monster hunters to help.
Yu Chengyi called a dozen demon hunters from the ninth level of Qi Refining, and together they helped Mo Hua place the stone needles with the Sinan Formation on them.
Because the inner mountain is very large, one Sinan Mother Formation compass cannot take into account the overall situation, so Mo Hua drew two sets and divided them into two compasses: A and B.
Compass A observes the south, compass B observes the north.
Moreover, he also made a set for each of Mo Shan and Yu Chengyi to make it easier for the demon hunters to operate in the inner mountains.
Yu Chengyi was overjoyed. With this formation compass, they would be much safer in the inner mountains.
Whether it is hunting monsters, predicting danger, or helping each other, it is much more convenient than before. You no longer have to rely solely on the experience and feelings of the monster hunter.
