Chapter 286 Black-armored Turtle Egg (3800 words, please subscribe)

After a while, everyone dived deep into the center of the small lake.

There is a dark abyss in this depth that stretches for more than ten feet long and several feet deep.

At the very bottom of the abyss, there are several small underground rivers.

The water flowing out of these underground rivers is the key to maintaining this small lake.

At the same time, the second-level spiritual veins in this small lake are also under this abyss.

On the cliffs on both sides of the abyss, there are many caves as large as several feet.

These caves are the nests of the black-armored turtles that previously occupied this lake.

Ling Pengyun and others searched carefully among the dozens of nests on the abyss cliff, and finally entered the most spacious nest with the richest spiritual energy in the place.

In the fine sand in the corner of the lair, there are three blue turtle eggs the size of a fist, and a small clump of second-grade mid-grade lotus waterweed that has been eaten until only some roots are left.

When Qin Shi and others saw these two objects, their eyes immediately focused on the three fist-sized turtle eggs.

This lair is the lair with the richest aura and the largest scope among the many lairs on the abyss cliff.

Everyone knew without much guessing that the owner of this nest must belong to the late-stage foundation-building turtle king.

The turtle king is a male turtle, so naturally he cannot lay eggs, but the other two mid-stage foundation-building turtle monsters are both female.

There is no doubt that the three turtle eggs in this nest were born to the turtle king and one of the female turtles in the middle stage of foundation building.

And both parents have foundation-building cultivation, which also indicates that the turtles that are about to hatch from the three turtle eggs will definitely have strong qualifications, and at least there will be some hope of breaking through the foundation-building.

Moreover, the Black-armored Turtle clan has strong defense, making it a good choice for monks to choose spiritual beasts.

Therefore, Qin Shi and others have some ideas about the three turtle eggs whose qualifications are not bad.

As for the small clump of lotus plant that had been eaten down to its roots, in their eyes, although it had some value, it was not of much value.

However, the lotus plant with only its roots left is extremely valuable in the eyes of Ling Pengyun, a spiritual planter.

As long as he is given time, he can completely rely on spiritual planting methods to re-cultivate a small cluster of second-order lotus water plants based on the roots of those second-order water plants in a short period of time.

Spiritual plants like aquatic plants are different from other spiritual plants in that they are special. As long as the roots of aquatic plants are still there, they can continuously grow aquatic plants.

The lotus aquatic plant is a kind of spiritual plant that water spiritual beasts like to eat the most. This spiritual plant can also help water spiritual beasts improve their cultivation.

"I didn't expect that there is a small cluster of second-level middle-grade lotus water plants here. Come to think of it, the group of black-armored turtle monsters here can give birth to two mid-stage foundation-building turtle monsters and one late-stage foundation-building turtle monster. It is precisely based on this Xiaocong’s second-level middle-grade Lianyun water grass.”

It was during this brief moment when Ling Pengyun was distracted that Qin Shi waved his hand and patted the storage bag on his waist, calling out the dozens of immature first-level water-type plants that had been collected from dozens of other black-armored turtle demon lairs. The spiritual plant and the seven turtle eggs born by the turtle demon in the Qi training period were placed next to the three foundation-building turtle eggs deep in the cave, and then he spoke.

"Everyone, how are these benefits divided?"

Whether it is Qin Shi himself or others, they all like the turtle eggs laid by the three foundation-building turtle demons.

However, there were six foundation builders gathered here, and the three turtle eggs with better qualifications were simply not enough.

Everyone guessed it was a favor, so they didn't ask for it.

After a while, Ling Pengyun, who did not have a close relationship with Qin Shi and others, said.

"Fellow Taoists, I want a turtle egg born by a turtle demon in the foundation-building stage, the seven turtle eggs born by a turtle demon in the Qi-training stage, and a clump of second-level mid-grade lotus water grass roots. "

"Because I took those seven extra black-armored turtle eggs, I can use a thousand spiritual stones as compensation and give them to you."

"I don't know, are you guys willing?"

As early as the Qi training period, Ling Pengyun planned to find a monster with strong defense as a spiritual beast to cultivate.

Although he has participated in several auctions over the years, he has also encountered such well-qualified, defense-focused monster eggs or cubs, but due to financial constraints, he has never had the opportunity to own a defense-focused spirit beast.

Now, after encountering those three eggs laid by the foundation-building turtle demons with good qualifications, and the black-armored turtle clan was of water nature, which was very complementary to his technique, he naturally did not intend to give up.

As for asking for the seven eggs laid by the Qi-training turtle demon, it was for the sake of the family.

The black-armored turtles can basically reach the middle stage of Qi training as adults, and the better ones can also reach the late stage of Qi training.

In recent years, the Ling family had planned to acquire monsters to strengthen the clan's strength.

If Ling could use the hatchlings from those seven turtle eggs to breed a group of turtles, it would be of great help to Ling.

As for the foundation-building turtle egg that Ling Pengyun asked for, it was worth about three to four hundred spiritual stones on the market.

As for those seven ordinary turtle eggs, each one on the market is worth nearly seventy or eighty spiritual stones at most.

A thousand spiritual stones are enough to purchase these eight turtle eggs.

The lotus water plant was regarded by Ling Pengyun as a benefit that should be shared. After all, among the many spiritual creatures on the ground, he already had a share.

After careful calculation, a thousand spiritual stones were considered a fair compensation.

Qin Shi, Yan Siyi and others had different expressions when they saw Ling Pengyun asking for it.

Ling Pengyun's cultivation level is comparable to that of Qin Shi, who has two second-level high-grade magic weapons, and his combat power is enough to rank among the top two. It is normal to take away a turtle egg born by a foundation-building turtle demon.

As for the seven ordinary turtle eggs, they were all born from the Qi Practicing Turtle Demon. No one needed to guess too much, they all knew that without those turtle eggs, the little turtles hatched would have little chance of building a foundation.

Even building a foundation is difficult, so people like Qin Shi and Yan Siyi, who have a not-so-simple background, naturally look down upon them.

Although the lotus water plant with only some roots left has some value, they are not spiritual cultivators, and even if they spend energy to cultivate the lotus water plant, it is difficult to refine it into elixirs and can only be eaten by water spirit beasts. things.

In addition, Ling Pengyun relied on Yang Siling, the daughter-in-law of the Jindan ancestor, and they did not dare to offend her.

Under such circumstances, everyone agreed to Ling Pengyun's proposal.

Ling Pengyun looked happy when he saw this. After thanking him, he took out a thousand spiritual stones from the storage bag and placed them on the ground.

Then, he used the art of animal control to put the seven Qi-training turtle eggs on the ground and the turtle egg born by the foundation-building turtle demon into a beast-control bag for preservation.

With Ling Pengyun speaking first, the others did not care about their feelings. The one with the strongest combat power, Qin Shi, wanted to take one.

The remaining one was obtained by Yan Siyi, a spiritual chef, who promised to cook a second-level spiritual food feast for everyone individually as a price.

As for the dozens of immature first-level water-type spiritual grasses, they were divided equally among everyone.

After doing this well, everyone did not stay here any longer. They used the water control method together, left the abyss at the bottom of the lake, and went up to the shore of the lake.

But at this moment, everyone saw more than thirty gray-haired eagles, each about the size of an ox, flying from the sky five or six miles away.

These thirty or so gray-haired eagles have noticed Ling Pengyun and others on the shore of the lake and are flying towards them quickly.

Upon seeing this, Ling Pengyun immediately mobilized his consciousness and looked towards the group of gray-haired eagles.

When he discovered that the group of gray-feathered eagles included twenty-eight gray-feathered eagles in the Qi-training realm, four in the early stage of foundation establishment, two in the middle stage of foundation establishment, and one in the late stage of foundation establishment, he frowned suddenly.

"Although the Gray Feathered Eagles are not very fast, in this land of pythons, we monks don't dare to fly at all, lest they attract more monsters."

"We can't avoid it. Now we're in trouble."

The Gray Feathered Eagle clan is a clan of monster beasts with better qualifications. Basically, as adults, they can enter the late stage of Qi training, or even complete Qi training.

It is not difficult for Gray Feather Eagle with better qualifications to enter the realm of foundation building.

However, it is extremely difficult for the gray-feathered eagle family to reproduce. It would be good if a pair of gray-feathered eagles could give birth to two gray-feathered eagles.

Therefore, the population of gray-feathered eagles has always been small.

Qin Shi and others beside Ling Pengyun also detected the cultivation level of the group of gray-feathered eagles at this moment.

Everyone's faces were filled with worry. Apparently they knew that they could not escape from this battle and could only fight.

"Fellow Daoist Qin, you are a physical cultivator, and this place is the boundary of Python Lake. It is best not to use flying magic weapons to fight flying monsters. Flying into the air to fight with them will cause some disadvantages, and I am afraid it will be difficult for you to show your strength."

"Under such circumstances, can you, fellow Daoist Qin, and the other four fellow daoists be sure to kill the Gray Feathered Eagle King, who is the strongest among the gray feathered eagles and has reached the late stage of foundation building?" Ling Pengyun asked the people on the side. road.

"Yes, you can, but in addition to the gray feathered eagle king in the late stage of foundation establishment, the gray feathered eagle group also has four gray feathered eagles in the early stage of foundation establishment, and two gray feathered eagles in the middle stage of foundation establishment. These six gray feathered eagles He is not weak, can Taoist friend alone be able to stop him?" Qin Shi thought about it carefully and nodded in response.

"Barely."

Ling Pengyun's face became more solemn. After saying something, he took out a beast-controlling bag from his arms and summoned the Fairy Crane King who was stationed in the Rock Scale Snake Cave with him in the early stage of foundation building. , and Feng Yingpeng, whose spiritual beast has perfected its Qi training.

"The fairy, the wind shadow, flies into the air, ready to fight."

The Fairy Crane King and Fengying Peng, who had just been released from the beast-controlling bags, received the signal, and their eyes, which were still a little distracted, suddenly flashed with a hint of cruelty.

A crane and a roc also rose into the sky one after another.

After arranging these two spiritual beasts, Ling Pengyun did not stop.

He opened his mouth and called out the thorns and vines that were warm and nourishing in his dantian.

It has been two years since Thorn Vine entered the realm of foundation building.

The large amount of Yimu's power that was consumed by returning spiritual power to Ling Pengyun was also restored with the help of Ling Pengyun's spiritual power in the past two years.

In fact, his cultivation has improved a bit, but he is still some distance away from the second level of foundation building.

"thorns!"

"Armor!"

The body of the floating thorn vine appeared with green light, and countless small roots emerged from its body, quickly growing into thigh-thick thorn vines, clinging to Ling Pengyun's body, turning into a set of full-body armor, tightly Sticking to Ling Pengyun's body.

As for the numerous barbs on the thorn vines, they bent close to the vines and did not harm the owner Ling Pengyun.

With the protective measures in place, Ling Pengyun patted the storage bag on his waist and took out two magical weapons, the Qinggang Zimu Flying Sword and the set of eighteen Qingling Swords, and quickly channeled his spiritual power into these two items. Within the magic weapon.

With the blessing of spiritual power, the tips of the two green steel flying swords suddenly emitted a five-foot sword light.

The set of Qingling Swords, which had eighteen handles, shook the void and flashed a spiritual light at the same time.

Immediately afterwards, a two-foot-long sword light burst out from the blades of the eighteen Qingling Swords.

A trace of cyan sword energy emerged around the blade of each flying sword, and each of them condensed dozens of inches of sword light, forming a majestic sword light array.

Then, he made two more blue seals.

The two blue seals spun around, and with a flash of inspiration, they quickly transformed into two five-foot-long water snakes.

Qin Shi and others on the side saw that Ling Pengyun not only summoned a spiritual beast in the early stage of foundation building, but also summoned a spiritual plant in the foundation building stage.

Even in just three breaths, he prepared so many attack methods, and they were shocked.

At this time, how could they not know that they did not fight with all their strength in the battle with the three black-armored turtles in the foundation building stage just now.

"I didn't expect that Fellow Daoist Ling actually has a powerful spiritual beast at the third level of foundation building, as well as a defensive spiritual plant that has entered the realm of foundation building."

"Looking at Fellow Daoist Ling, he has used so many attack methods. I think his spiritual sense is not weak. I am afraid it is enough to match the spiritual sense strength of the fifth and sixth level cultivators of foundation building."

"However, judging from his current means, Fellow Daoist Ling's combat power is probably a few points stronger than mine. If I want to defeat him, I am afraid that I can't do it with that second-level top-grade Xuantu stick alone. I need to borrow my second-level top-grade full-body armor to help."

Qin Shi looked at Ling Pengyun's four attack methods, including the Qinggang mother-and-child flying sword, the sword formation, and the two water snakes. He felt a hint of threat and muttered to himself.

Yan Siyi, who had heard that Ling Pengyun had a foundation-building stage spiritual plant, was a little surprised when she saw that Ling Pengyun did not sacrifice the second spiritual plant, and the first spiritual plant was the thorn vine.

Generally, the spiritual plant husband's natal spiritual plant will be sacrificed to auxiliary spiritual plants, and will not use thorny vines, which are both offensive and defensive.

Auxiliary spiritual plants are easier to upgrade.

It is more beneficial for spiritual plant husbands to improve the grade of spiritual plants.

"From the thorny vines, it seems that Brother Ling has had great ambitions since he entered the Tao, and he has never been willing to be a spiritual plant husband who deals with spiritual plants all year round."

Yan Siyi secretly guessed.
