Cultivation of immortality in the family

Chapter 179 Golden Retriever

"Exotic beast!"

Judging from the size of this golden retriever puppy, you can tell at a glance that it is still in its infancy.

However, it was able to fight the two Jindan monks back and forth, and even Baida Nian's Jianwan couldn't stop the opponent. This shows that its strength is at least level three.

In particular, it moves extremely fast, and it looks like a golden light in the eyes of the four people.

From all aspects of inference, one can conclude that this is not an ordinary little milk dog, but the cub of some kind of exotic beast.

"Hurry up and catch it!" Hu Jinpeng realized that the four of them might be lucky. If they could catch it, they would really make a fortune.

So, except for Su Mu, the other three people formed an encirclement posture.

The three of them cooperated tacitly, and almost used their special skills to the fullest.

As the encirclement shrinks, the area where the little golden-haired beast can move is restricted to a few feet.

"Brother Su, how are you doing over there?" On one side, Baida Nian controlled three sword pills to lock the void in all directions to limit the speed of the little golden-haired beast. On the other side, he kept urging Su Mu to move faster. a little.

Most of these strange beasts are born and raised, so even when they are still young, they still have jaw-dropping magical powers.

After this test, they could roughly judge that the little golden-haired beast only traveled at a faster speed.

Otherwise, given its current situation, it would have been displayed long ago.

"Wait another half-quarter of an hour!"

Seeing that the other three were having an increasingly difficult time coping, Su Mu quickly increased his firepower output.

However, Su Mu still hadn't forgotten about the Fire Dragon Flower, and he didn't know if it was his illusion. He always felt that the timing of the appearance of this strange beast larva was quite unusual.

"No matter whether you can catch it or not, you have to pick all these fire dragon flowers. Otherwise, if you miss it, your trip will be in vain."

In fact, Su Mu was also observing the situation on their side.

Based on his understanding of the other three people, even if he couldn't catch the little golden-haired beast, he could still deal with it for more than half an hour.

After only half a stick of incense, there were not many of those beautiful pansy left.

Taking advantage of this gap, Su Mu dodged and came to the fire dragon flowers. He divided them by two in three strokes and picked them all.

He counted and received a total of eighty-six flowers.

At this moment, he noticed something abnormal beneath the sea surface.

He glanced at the figures reflected on the sea and felt a specious and sinister air flowing slowly.

However, when he used his spiritual sense to explore, everything seemed to be an illusion.

"Perhaps the beauty pansy has been growing here for a while, causing some strangeness in the spirit here."

Just in time, Qianyuan Qinghuo took care of all the remaining beauty pansy, and the fire cloud gathered into a flame again.

At this moment, the little golden-haired beast ignored the three golden elixir monks' special moves, and the small figure disappeared directly under the siege of everyone.

When it reappeared, it was already dozens of feet away.

Before they could shout a warning, the little golden-haired beast turned into a golden light again and flew away into the distance.

Before leaving, I saw it open its small mouth and swallow the Qianyuan Qinghuo that was about to be taken back by Su Mu with lightning speed.

Vaguely, Su Mu seemed to see the golden-haired little beast's mouth grinning in an arc, and a hint of cunning flashed in his eyes, as if his plan had succeeded.

"Careful, it ran away!"

It was only then that Situ Sitong's voice came through.

However, before he finished speaking, the figure of the little golden-haired beast disappeared again.

At this time, Baida Nian and the others rushed to Su Mu's side and scanned it several times with their spiritual senses, but could not find any trace of it.

"Oh, it ran away." Baida Nian sighed.

"It's not that it ran away, but that we were fooled by it." Hu Jinpeng recalled some of the details just now and immediately noticed this fact.

With the golden-haired little beast's final burst of skill, there was no way he could be trapped by the three of them.

The reason why it pretended to be unable to escape was probably to devour the Qianyuan Green Fire in Su Mu's hand. However, the strange fire just turned into a cloud of fire. It was really hard for it to eat, so it waited until the critical moment to take advantage of the situation. .

"Brother, is there any way you can take back the strange fire?"

The four Jindan monks joined forces and were actually teased by a strange beast cub. The thought of being humiliated made them itchy with hatred.

Hearing that Hu Jinpeng was concerned about him, Su Mu felt it for a moment, shook his head helplessly, and said, "If it's nearby, it might be possible to take it back, but once it's far away, it won't even be able to sense it."

"Then what should we do? This Qianyuan Green Fire is the key to Brother Su's mastery of gold and stone alchemy. If it is really gone, then where can we find another one!" Baida Nian shouted that something was not good, even his expression changed. changed.

"This Qianyuan Green Fire is made from several kinds of spiritual fire. Not to mention a mere third-order alien beast cub, even a fourth-order great demon cannot easily refine it."

Different from Baida Nian's half-empty level, Hu Jinpeng's knowledge was obviously more extensive, and he immediately pointed out the key points of the matter.

"Indeed, the Qianyuan Green Fire is almost comparable to a different fire. It has always been the only one that can swallow up the spiritual fire of heaven and earth to strengthen itself. I'm afraid it's not that easy to swallow up other things."

Seeing Baida Nian's questioning look, Su Mu also said calmly.

After so many years of sacrifice, his understanding of Qianyuan Qinghuo was even better than Hu Jinpeng's.

Hearing what he said, Baida Nian and Situ Sitong could finally feel relieved.

"Anyway, the whereabouts of this little golden-haired beast have been exposed. We will take the initiative to take back the Qianyuan Qinghuo."

"During this period, it will be difficult for Brother Su."

"It's okay. Even if I can't practice, I can still master the art of alchemy. Besides, maybe this time will be an opportunity for me to improve my alchemy skills without relying on external means."

In order not to make others feel guilty, Su Mu had to pretend to be calm.

In fact, the missing Qianyuan Green Fire was just the sub-fire that branched off from the mother plant in his hand.

However, in order to prevent Qianyuan Huolingdeng from being exposed, he could only pretend.

He always felt that it was better to hide some of the methods he obtained from the Five Elements Immortal Sect as much as possible, otherwise he would be regarded as a remnant of the Immortal Sect and be targeted, which would be detrimental to his subsequent actions.

"Brother Su can think this way. It seems that he has a great chance of advancing to the third level alchemy master. It's just a matter of time."

After hearing what Su Mu said, Baida Nian was really ashamed.

"Fortunately, we didn't return empty-handed this time. I just harvested eighty-seven fire dragon flowers, and several of them are more than two hundred years old."

After finishing speaking, Su Mu was about to take out the Fire Dragon Flower.

At this moment, a third-level sea ship appeared in the distance, and the word "Lingqiao" was written on the sail.

The sea ship moved very fast, and in the blink of an eye, it arrived in front of everyone.

In full view of everyone, five monks stepped off the ship.

The first person happened to be Cang Qing, the lord of Lingqiao Palace who was stationed in Kunwu City. His status was equivalent to that of the lord of a palace.    Following him were his disciples and retainers.

Except for the two disciples who only have the cultivation level of the late stage of foundation building, Cang Qing and his two retainers are already golden elixir monks, especially Cang Qing himself, who has reached the late stage of golden elixir. It is said that his strength is unfathomable. Measurement.

"Greetings to the Master of the Cang Palace!"

Seeing the five of them coming hand in hand, Su Mu and the other four people all bowed their hands to show their respect.

Although they are also Jindan cultivators, logically speaking, they are equal to Cang Qing.

However, the longer I practice Taoism, the more I understand that the higher the cultivation level, even if it is a small difference, it will make a world of difference.

What's more, Cang Qing is two levels higher than the four of Su Mu. Even if they join forces, they can't compete with him.

Furthermore, the name of Donghai Lingqiao Palace is like thunder, and people hold high positions in it. To put it bluntly, a finger from the other party is enough to crush these people to death.

"Your hands and feet are very fast. As soon as I got the news, you guys have already succeeded." Cang Qing said with a smile.

After all, Lingqiao Palace is the overlord of the East China Sea, and any slight disturbance can easily reach the ears of others.

This time, Cang Qing originally wanted to take his two apprentices out to have a look, but he didn't expect someone else to get there first.

"It was a fluke, just a fluke."

Speaking of which, Situ Sitong had some relationship with Lingqiao Palace, he said with a smile.

"Forget it, now that you have succeeded, let's go elsewhere." Cang Qing said nonchalantly.

For the master of a palace, this kind of gadget can only be regarded as an ordinary gadget.

Based on his vision, one must be at level four or above to be able to catch his eye.

"Master of the Cang Palace, I have something to report to you."

Just when Cang Qing and others stood up to leave, Su Mu spoke up after some thought.

"Brother Su." Upon hearing this, Baida Nian hurriedly gestured with his lips.

Su Mu returned a look to reassure the other person and then took two steps forward.

"Oh, what's the matter?"

Next, Su Mu explained in detail the fact that his Qianyuan Spiritual Fire was swallowed by a small golden-haired beast.

"If the master of the warehouse can catch that little golden-haired beast, please be sure to return the junior's spiritual fire."

After listening, Cang Qing frowned and fell into deep thought.

During this period, he emphatically inquired about some of the physical characteristics of the little golden-haired beast.

All four people present had seen it with their own eyes, so everyone's description was roughly the same.

"Master, I don't know what kind of strange beast this little golden-haired beast is. Why is it so special?"

Cang Qing's two apprentices happened to be a boy and a girl. The man looked mighty and majestic, a head taller than the average person. According to Su Mu's perception of his energy and blood, it was known that this man must be a practitioner of both immortality and martial arts.

The other female apprentice was plain in appearance, but her eyes seemed to be able to see through all things.

Just now, Su Mu was glanced at by the other party casually, and then he took the initiative to confess the matter.

Later, he thought about it and finally realized that Cang Qing and others must have noticed the movement thousands of miles away with the help of this female apprentice's eyes.

Anyway, they already know, why not take the initiative to inform them, and maybe get some information.

It was this female apprentice who asked the question just now.

It can be seen that Cang Qing is extremely doting on this female apprentice, even in front of so many people, he does not shy away from it at all.

"If my prediction is correct, the little golden-haired beast they encountered may be the cub of the golden-haired harpy."

"Golden-haired dragon? Is it the kind of divine dragon that is recorded in the records of the strange beasts of heaven and earth, which flies thousands of miles away as soon as it appears and feeds on dragons." Hu Jinpeng exclaimed, with an expression of disbelief on his face.

Not only him, but everyone else was also stunned with surprise.

With Cang Qing's knowledge, he shouldn't admit his mistake.

Then this matter is almost the same.

"No wonder we can't subdue it even with our combined efforts. If its origin is so extraordinary, we will lose unjustly."

That is a powerful being that feeds on dragons after adulthood. Even among alien beasts, it is at the top level.

"This matter is of great importance. If you can catch it, Qianyuan Qinghuo will return it to you."

Compared with this kind of strange beast, Qianyuan Qinghuo is really nothing.

After they boarded the ship, the four of them, Sumu, also headed towards Kunlu City.

Half a day passed quietly, and Jinqiao Island returned to calm again. As the nearby beauty pansy was swept away, the sea area began to regain a little life.

Suddenly, the third-level sea ship that had been gone for a long time returned here.

On the ship, Cangqing and other five people stood on the deck of the bow.

They looked at the endless sea in silence.

After a while, the female apprentice withdrew her gaze and said, "Master, a few hundred feet below the sea surface, there is Yin Qi lingering. It seems that there is something strange here."

"Mu'er, besides these, what else can you see?" Cang Qing asked again.

Just now, he also used his spiritual sense to explore, but when he entered his eyes, he didn't notice any other abnormalities, not to mention the Yin Qi.

Therefore, he concluded that there must be something strange about the terrain here.

However, he is not an impulsive person. Even he has been kept secret, so he must make a decision before taking action.

"I can't see it anymore, but I can faintly see a ball of fire inside." Mu Yan shook her head.

Her cultivation level was still too low, and she could only see an outline, unable to penetrate the heavy fog.

Based on her previous impression, that ball of fire was most likely the golden retriever she had seen from afar.

"You guys wait here, I'll test it first."

Speaking of which, Cang Qing still couldn't let go of the golden retriever.

If he can subdue the opponent, whether by handing it over to the sect or taming it into a spiritual beast, then his chances of breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage will probably increase a lot.

Now, he has almost reached the last step of the golden elixir stage, and all he wants is for the pregnancy elixir to become a baby.

Now that this matter has happened to him, how can he deal with it calmly.

Anyway, with his current strength, he can come and go freely as long as it is not a dangerous place above level four.
