Chapter 179 Take Action

Xu Feng and Chu Tianhong, led by the Crested Honey Buzzard, traveled for a day and a night before reaching their destination.

After landing, he began to carefully observe the surrounding situation.

It was a very deep canyon with a stream flowing from north to south at the bottom of the valley.

The widest part of the canyon was six or seven miles, and the narrowest part was only more than twenty feet. No matter forward or backward, there was no end in sight.

The ground was full of gravel and no grass grew.

Only a few sparse plants could be seen occasionally on the cliffs on both sides.

The most important thing was that the spiritual energy here was extremely thin, just like the secular world.

Such a place generally would not have immortal cultivators stop, which also made him doubt whether the wild spirit bee colony lived here and whether the Crested Honey Buzzard had led the wrong way?

Thinking of this, Xu Feng directly asked Chu Tianhong, who was standing aside and looking around, about his doubts.

"Don't worry about it, Fellow Daoist Xu, I'm sure this is the place we're looking for.

In fact, when the Crested Honey Eagle brought me here last time, I thought it had taken the wrong path, but I later verified it myself and found out that it was right.

This group of wild spirit bees is really too cunning. In order to avoid us monks, they built their hives in this place where there are few people and little spiritual energy.

Look there."

Xu Feng looked in the direction of her finger and saw a big tree growing far away five or six miles away, and nothing else could be seen.

"There is a big tree hole on the trunk of that big tree, and the bee colony lives in it."

"Fellow Daoist Chu, do you know how many spirit bees live in the tree hole?"

Now that the target has been found, the most important thing next is to figure out the comparison of the enemy's strength.

The strength of the wild bee colony is basically determined by the number of colonies.

In a micro-bee colony, there are usually only dozens of wild spirit bees, and the strength of the queen bee is generally at the lower level of the first order, which is equivalent to the initial stage of human Qi refining.

There are two types of small bee colonies. One type is wild spirit bees with a number of between one hundred and one thousand, and the queen bee is of the first-class middle grade.

The other type is wild spirit bees with a number of between one thousand and several thousand, and the queen bee is of the first-class upper grade, which is equal to the two of them.

"I just took a quick glance last time and didn't dare to stay for long, so I don't know how many bee colonies there are, but there are definitely a thousand.

And after the bee colony found my trace, the queen bee led her men to chase me. Its strength is the first-class upper grade, and the strength of her bee colonies is mostly the first-class lower grade, and there are relatively few first-class middle grade.

Don't worry, with the combined strength of the two of us, it is not difficult to take down this bee colony."

Chu Tianhong was afraid that Xu Feng would back down, so he encouraged him while analyzing the strength.

"That's great, then what should we do next?"

"Don't worry, this group of wild bees is called soul-chasing bees, and they are very aggressive. They will attack as long as they are harassed.

Their teeth and stingers are very powerful and very poisonous.

I plan to let the crested honey buzzard fly over to harass them first, and then you and I will attack, so that we can disperse their forces to the greatest extent."

The two of them roughly agreed on the next plan. Xu Feng glanced at the crested honey buzzard with his head held high, and then asked quietly:

"Fellow Daoist Chu, your spirit beast and the wild spirit bee colony are natural enemies. When it appears, it will definitely attract the bee colony to chase it out in full force. Are you sure it can withstand so many attacks?"

As for the poison of the wild spirit bee, he was fortunate enough to experience it. Just a few days ago, when it was chased around by the Qingyun wolf pack.

He once encountered a lone first-level middle-grade wild spirit bee.

He collided with the other party while flying on the sword, and before he noticed it, he felt a sharp pain in his arm.

When he looked down, he only found a patch of skin on his arm, which swelled up instantly and soon formed a thumb-sized lump.

On the top of the lump, he also saw a stinger left by a wild spirit bee, but the wild spirit bee that attacked him had already flown away to who knows where.

"Hey, you don't have to worry about this. Look at my crested honey buzzard. Its feathers are fluffy and dense, and there is basically no gap between them.

The claws and other places that are not covered with fur are also covered with a thick hard skin layer. No matter how many wild spirit bees there are, they can't hurt it.

Do you see its eyes? There is a special iris on it. When it is stung by a group of bees, it will protect the eyeballs without affecting its vision.

It can be said that it was born to deal with spirit bees, so don't worry!"

The two talked and laughed, and half an hour passed, and the action was about to begin.

In order not to alert the enemy, Chu Tianhong released the crested honey buzzard and let it fly a big circle to attack the tree hole where the soul-chasing bee colony lived from another direction.

The two of them approached quietly and waited for an opportunity to attack.

As expected, they were natural enemies. When the crested honey buzzard appeared next to the tree hole, the bee colony was instantly in chaos.

Xu Feng, who was lying in ambush not far away, clearly heard that although the bee colony also had a buzzing sound from flapping its wings, it was very subtle.

After the crested honey buzzard appeared, the decibel of the sound instantly increased by more than double, and there was a feeling of facing a great enemy.

Then the wild spirit bees used their unique communication method to report the news of the enemy attack to the queen bee.

In just a few breaths, the queen bee rushed out with hundreds of drones.

When he saw the crested honey buzzard circling around the tree, he rushed out first.

The crested honey buzzard had experienced so many such scenes before, so he didn't panic at all. He gently flapped his huge wings twice and flew away.

These wild spirit bees were still very smart. When they saw that the powerful enemy was so easily driven away by themselves.

First, they gathered together and celebrated by dancing a dance that human monks couldn't understand. Then, led by the queen bee, they returned triumphantly.

However, the crested honey buzzard didn't fly far, and then turned around and flew back again, continuing to harass the bee colony.

This is the tacit understanding formed by Chu Tianhong and the crested honey buzzard in their long-term cooperation, which has been tried and tested.

Under its continuous harassment, the queen bee's anger accumulated more and more, and finally she refused to give up and chased the crested honey buzzard, which was flying at a fast speed and very low altitude, away.

Seeing that the time was ripe, Chu Tianhong took out something and gave it to Xu Feng, and then called him to act immediately.

"What is this, Fellow Daoist Chu? How do you use it?"

Looking at the foot-long thing in his hand, which was made of unknown spiritual herbs and looked like a torch, he asked.

"This is called a bee-repelling moxa stick. After it is lit, ordinary wild spirit bees will not dare to approach you."

"I see. Thank you for your generous gift, Fellow Daoist."
