Chapter 146 A thousand birds in the forest is worse than a bird in the hand(1/2)
"Master, what should we do? Still go to the restricted area?"
Kung Fu, pills, etc. are all things in the future, but what we are facing now is a very realistic choice, whether to leave here or take the risk to try again.
"Don't worry, let's take care of the lightning-struck wood first. Let's touch it and take a look at it tonight."
Jing Shizhen is very experienced and will not touch the giant ape's troubles at this time. Both of them have restrained their energy at this moment, and the giant ape may not be able to sense them.
When she came to the yard, Jing Shizhen looked at the lightning log and said, "Xiaofan, cut it into 1.5 meter sections so you can take it away later."
Su Xiaofan nodded and took out the flying sword. The sword light flashed and the lightning strike wood was divided into four sections.
"Let's take it out piece by piece later. Hum, we will have to take out their good stuff."
In the past, at comrades' gatherings, Jing Shizhen only had money, but there are many things in such gatherings that cannot be bought with money.
But this time it's different. Lightning strike wood usually appears less often, and a piece as big as a palm is usually worth a lot of money.
Now that they were several meters away, Jing Shizhen suddenly felt like she could float away, and she had to turn around and kill those people.
"I'm going to practice for a while and see if the air here contains the energy of the restricted area."
Jing Shizhen has not been so diligent since her breakthrough, but since there is hope for her cultivation to continue to grow, Jing Shizhen will naturally have to work harder.
"Okay, I'll go to the canyon and see if the giant ape will come out."
Hearing what Master said, Su Xiaofan was overjoyed. He was just thinking about finding a reason to search for meteorites alone, but unexpectedly Master gave him an assist.
"Be careful and don't leak your energy, otherwise the giant ape will most likely chase you out."
Jing Shizhen gave the disciple a few words of advice and didn't worry too much. Su Xiaofan's cultivation level was already better than his. If Su Xiaofan couldn't escape, it would be useless for him.
Su Xiaofan looked at Duobao, rubbed its head, and asked, "What's wrong with you? Are you following me or staying here?"
"Meow..." Duobao raised his head and licked Su Xiaofan's hand, arched his back, and then looked in the direction of Devil's Valley.
"You want to go in?" Su Xiaofan scratched his head a little. With the giant ape around, Devil's Valley was not a safe place.
"Meow." Duobao nodded, with a look of longing in his eyes.
As the second generation of extraordinary creatures, Duobao should have lived in that kind of environment.
If Su Xiaofan hadn't been feeding him python meat, Duobao might have lost all the blood of extraordinary creatures in his body.
So after coming into contact with the forbidden area of death, Duobao's instinct told it that it belonged to this place.
"Forget it, go ahead, but be careful and don't go deep into the restricted area."
Seeing the longing look in Duobao's eyes, Su Xiaofan knew what Duobao was thinking.
Moreover, Su Xiaofan also understood that the evolution of extraordinary creatures must be completed in a restricted area. If Duobao stayed with him all the time, it might be useless.
"Meow!"
After receiving Su Xiaofan's permission, Duobao jumped up excitedly, rubbed his head against Su Xiaofan's trouser leg, and ran towards Devil's Valley like lightning.
"If it stays in the restricted area, it may soon become an extraordinary creature."
Jing Shizhen looked at the direction in which Duobao disappeared, shook his head, and said: "There used to be a sect that was best at raising animals. Unfortunately, that sect's inheritance was broken in a few decades.
Otherwise, you can tame Duobao, and you can control it even if it becomes an extraordinary creature. Later, I will ask people to go to Yungui to inquire and see if anyone else knows how to tame beasts..."
"Isn't it a witchcraft?"
When Su Xiaofan heard the words Yungui, he unconsciously thought of the former head-turning master from Siam.
"Is it a voodoo spell? Let's forget it. I don't want to control Duobao."
Su Xiaofan shook his head. After raising Duobao for so long, he almost regarded Duobao as his own relative, especially because Duobao was considerate and could chat with him when he was bored.
Therefore, if Duobao wanted to return to the restricted area freely, Su Xiaofan would rather let it go than forcefully keep it with him.
"Gu art is just Xiao Dao'er, a branch of that inheritance." Jing Shizhen waved it off and said, "Let's talk about the matter of not having a single character in the eight characters later."
"Okay, Master, you practice first, and I'll go out for a walk."
Seeing that it would be dark in two or three hours, Su Xiaofan said hello to his master and left the cabin.
However, Su Xiaofan did not go in the direction of Devil's Valley like Duobao, but turned back and came to the entrance to the grand canyon.
"Nature is really magical."
Standing at the place where the canyon is connected to the outside world, one side is surrounded by ice and snow at minus 10 to 20 degrees Celsius, and the other side is covered with flowers as warm as spring. The two extremely contrasting scenes give people a very strong visual impact.
After traveling so far, Su Xiaofan was naturally unwilling to return empty-handed. He decided to collect every single piece of the rare meteorites in the canyon before leaving.
A rain of information like a waterfall rushed through my mind.
Su Xiaofan paid full attention to select the information with the word meteorite, and then started to check the characteristics of the meteorite.
After advancing to the realm of Three Flowers Gathering, Su Xiaofan can now release his spiritual consciousness and use the repair system more easily.
Devil's Valley is located in a remote area. Even if there were herdsmen living there in the past, no one would be interested in the stones on the ground.
Therefore, this place is still a virgin land for meteorites, and Su Xiaofan is the first person to come here to search for meteorites.
Over the past tens of millions of years, countless meteorites have fallen into the earth. Although the probability of falling into the canyon is relatively small, Su Xiaofan has gained a lot from adding up to a small amount.
After searching for about two kilometers, Su Xiaofan returned to the location of the wooden house.
The brain needs to process hundreds of pieces of information almost every second. Even with Su Xiaofan's mental strength, he feels a little tired now.
At this moment, the repair value in Su Xiaofan's mind has reached 600 points. Within these two kilometers, the rare meteorites he absorbed increased the repair value by 305 points.
This also made Su Xiaofan very excited. According to the previous probability calculation, there were still five kilometers left to reach the entrance of Devil's Valley. He would definitely be able to collect a thousand repair points.
As the saying goes, a thousand birds in the forest is worse than a bird in the hand.
Although their Xiaoyao Sect's attack skills were a bit poor, just as Jing Shizhen thought, they didn't have enough skills to make it up.
If he could practice Yin Shen, Su Xiaofan believed that he would be among the top practitioners even in the official department.
As for the realm of the Yang God above the Yin God, according to Jing Shizhen, it is all illusory. At least Jing Shizhen has never heard of the existence of a strong Yang God in this world.
His spiritual consciousness sensed the master who was practicing in the wooden house. Su Xiaofan meditated and rested in the yard for a while. When he saw that it was getting dark, he ended his work for the day.
Perhaps it's because thunder strikes more often during the day, making the creatures in the valley more cautious.
Ever since Su Xiaofan and Jing Shizhen came out, there has never been a thunderous scene in Devil's Valley.
The entire Grand Canyon, except for the occasional howl of wolves and the screams of some animals dying, became unusually quiet.
In the early hours of the morning, Jing Shizhen in the wooden house and Su Xiaofan outside opened their eyes at the same time.
"Let's go, this time we will focus on cultivation and don't provoke the giant ape."
Jing Shizhen set the tone, "Let's stay within fifty meters of the entrance. If the giant ape comes out, we will trigger the thunder and escape immediately."
Su Xiaofan naturally had no objections to the master's arrangement, and he didn't want to provoke that big guy.
The night had almost no effect on the two of them. Under the cover of the night, the two quickly arrived at the entrance to the death zone.
"Walk close to the rock wall and find a cave. If you can't find it, use your flying sword to open one!"
At this time, Jing Shizhen was already using his spiritual consciousness to transmit sounds, and he also used the breath gathering technique to the extreme, completely locking his own Qi within his body.
Su Xiaofan nodded, and the two of them entered the restricted area at the same time.
The energy that diffuses everywhere in the restricted area is isolated from the body by the magic weapon.
At this moment, Jing Shizhen even had the idea that she would not bring any magic weapon with her next time she came in. Instead, she would use her body-protecting Qi to resist, and then quickly refine the energy in the restricted area. I wonder if the cultivation efficiency would be higher.
And Jing Shizhen also has a feeling that the deeper into the penalty area, the more abundant this energy is. At the edge of the penalty area, the energy is thin, so maybe his idea is feasible.
"Master, there is no cave..."
Su Xiaofan walked forward for seventy or eighty meters, but could not find the cave. He could only stop and go forward, and he would soon reach the fire fox's lair.
"Look back, let's dig one ourselves!"
Jing Shizhen didn't want to take risks. Although the presence of the giant ape meant that Devil's Valley was not a safe place to practice, Jing Shizhen still wanted to make some attempts in the past few days to become more familiar with this forbidden energy.
The two of them turned back and came to a place twenty meters away from the entrance to the restricted area. Su Xiaofan flipped his wrist and held the flying sword in his palm.
The ground of Devil's Valley is mysterious, but the rock wall is an ordinary rock wall. The flying sword spit out a sword light of seven or eight meters, and easily dug out a cave about two meters high and seven or eight meters deep.
Jing Shizhen was very careful. He held all the stones dug out by Su Xiaofan in his palms, then slowly put them down and built a stone wall outside the cave.
Therefore, the two men's digging actions made almost no loud noise, and did not disturb the creatures that were hunting at night in the canyon.
As a master, Jing Shizhen cannot only care about himself. After digging the cave, he said to Su Xiaofan: "You practice first, and I will protect you!"
"It's okay, let's come together."
Su Xiaofan shook his head and said, "Refining the energy in this restricted area is not about practicing meditation. I just need to use some of my consciousness to pay attention to the outside."
"Okay!" Jing Shizhen felt that what Su Xiaofan said was reasonable, so the two of them walked into the cave, each found a place to sit cross-legged and meditate.
"Huh? The energy here is indeed much thinner. No wonder no creature wants to come to the mouth of the valley."
As soon as Su Xiaofan started to exercise his energy, he realized something was wrong. The energy he absorbed was not even one-third of what it was during the day.
After thinking for a moment, Su Xiaofan took off the jade pendant, placed it next to him, and started to circulate his true energy again.
This time, Su Xiaofan immediately felt something different. After being sucked into his body, the domineering energy quickly swallowed up his true energy.
