Who cares about childhood sweethearts when they can become immortals?

Chapter 224 Yushan
When Shan Yan heard this, he naturally did not dare to refuse. Even if Xu Ji saved his group from the mysterious beast, the terrifying aura that Xu Ji exuded that made him tremble gave him no room to refuse. Under the rule of respecting the strong, the weak are always in a dominated position.

"Sir, do you need us to help you deal with the corpses of these mysterious beasts?" Shan Yan pointed to the five corpses of mysterious beasts on the ground with stones pierced between their brows, and asked in a respectful tone, these five mysterious beasts are many He didn't dare to do anything if Xu Ji didn't speak up as Ji's trophy.

Xu Ji glanced at the five mysterious beasts on the ground and said casually: "Take them with you. If you can get information that satisfies me, then the corpses of these mysterious beasts will be given to you."

There was also a look of joy on the face of the mountain rock. After thanking Xu Ji, he directed others to bring the bodies of the five mysterious beasts. Others also had a look of joy on their faces after hearing this. After all, the bodies of these five mysterious beasts The realm is not low, and for a small tribe like the Yushan tribe, it is already a huge gain.

Xu Ji saw the joy on the faces of the hunting team and did not feel any surprise.

Monks are different from Xuanxiu. Monks absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth when they practice, so as their cultivation level rises, their requirements for food will gradually decrease. After building a foundation, it doesn't matter even if they don't eat or drink. Simply absorbing spiritual energy is enough to sustain life.

But the practitioners of the Mysterious World are different. The mysterious power contained in the Mysterious World is more violent. Therefore, the practitioners of the Mysterious World can only use the mysterious force to carve mysterious patterns on the body surface to obtain extraordinary power. Although after carving the mysterious patterns, It can also strengthen the body of Xuan Xiu, but whether using Xuan patterns or strengthening the body requires the consumption of body energy, and if the body does not receive enough energy replenishment, it will even be squeezed into a mummy because it cannot bear the carved Xuan patterns.

The best way to replenish the body's energy is to eat. Starting from the time when a mysterious pattern is carved, the amount of food consumed by a mysterious cultivator will be much higher than that of ordinary people. And as the level of cultivation increases, the amount of food consumed will become more and more terrifying, so that if it is eaten alone Even if you eat without stopping for a day, you can't get rid of hunger with ordinary food.

At this time, other foods containing high energy are naturally needed to replace ordinary food. For Xuan Xiu, the flesh and blood of Xuan Beast is undoubtedly the best substitute. Every piece of flesh and blood contains high energy. A vast amount of ordinary food can replenish the body's lack of energy in a short period of time and reduce the time consumed by eating.

The higher the realm, the more energy contained in the flesh and blood of mysterious beasts. Therefore, although there are only five corpses of mysterious beasts, it is enough to feed the entire Yushan tribe for a month.

The location of the Yushan tribe is not too far from where everyone is now. With Xuanshi's footsteps, even if he was carrying prey, he quickly led Xu Ji to Yushan, which settled in the Zizhu Mountains. Tribal settlement.

The Yushan tribe is not that big, but more like a small village. However, the village's defense system is very tight, consisting of tall wooden fences and thick vines. There are thorns between each fence, and there are people patrolling and guarding them. To guard against attacks by mysterious beasts in the Zizhu Mountains.

After Xuanshi, who was on guard at the entrance of the village, noticed the returning hunting team and the prey they had brought back, his face was a little joyful. One of them turned around and ran back to the tribe and shouted: "The hunting team is back."

After hearing this call, most of the villagers ran to the entrance of the village to welcome the return of the hunting team. After all, the Yushan tribe is not big, so the interpersonal relationships within it are also very simple. After all, they are all familiar with each other, and Zizhu The mountains are full of mysterious beasts, and the hunting team takes a lot of risks every time they hunt. Therefore, they are naturally worried about the safety of the hunting team, and when they hear that they are returning, they immediately come to the entrance of the village to greet them.

Shan Yan tensed up slightly when he saw this. After winking at the surrounding team members, he apologized to Xu Ji and said, "The people of the tribe didn't know you were coming. If there is any conflict, please forgive me."

The team members on the side understood Shan Yan's eyes and took the initiative to greet the villagers who came to greet them, so as not to collide with Xu Ji, a mysterious strong man of unknown origin. Seeing this, Yu Shan reacted differently from before. The villagers in the tribe also realized that something was wrong and noticed the extra figure of Xu Ji in the hunting team.

The atmosphere on the field suddenly fell into an eerie silence. Xu Ji noticed that in addition to being wary, worried, and doubtful, the eyes of the people in the Shanyu Tribe looked at him with a faint feeling. Fear, even if I just came to this tribe and didn't do anything.

Xu Ji keenly noticed that this fear was not directed at himself alone, but at all the strong people whose strength was higher than his own. Without the constraints of the system, the strong had absolute control over the weak. Therefore, the Yushan Tribe When facing Xu Ji, everyone felt faintly afraid. After all, from the moment Xu Ji arrived, the life and death of their entire tribe might depend on Xu Ji's single thought.

"Sir, please come with me. I will take you to see the leader of our Yushan tribe, Shanshi. Leader Shanshi is now a one-star Xuanshi. He has witnessed a battle thirty years ago. I heard that this battle was I heard what the leader said when I was young." Shan Yan explained while guiding Xu Ji.

"The situation in the mysterious world is different from that in the spiritual world. It is a more naked and purely predatory society. Therefore, when I pretend to be a nine-star mysterious master, I should be more powerful. Otherwise, I will appear a little fragmented and easily be No one noticed." Xu Ji nodded casually and followed Shan Yan slowly, thinking about his own flaws based on the previous reactions of the Shanyu tribe.

After all, he is now isolated and helpless in the mysterious world. Even the slightest flaw may put him in a state of eternal disaster. Naturally, he cannot be too careful now. Soon, Shan Yan took Xu Ji to a stone house located in the center of the Yushan tribe. At this time, outside the stone house, a strong man like an iron tower was exercising his body.

This man as strong as an iron tower was the leader of the Yushan Tribe, Yixing Xuanshi Shanshi. When Shanshi saw Xu Ji and the others arriving, he stopped sharpening his body and felt Xu Ji's obscure but powerful fluctuations of profound energy. , there was also a bit of solemnity in his expression.

Shan Shi ignored Shan Yan who was leading the way for Xu Ji, looked directly at Xu Ji, and asked with some hesitation: "May I ask your Excellency...?"

However, Xu Ji did not intend to exchange too many greetings with Shan Shi. After deducing the folk customs of the Xuan Realm, he was a strong person to the Shan Yu tribe, so he just explained his purpose of coming.

So Xu Ji completely activated the Nine-Refining Xuanling Crystal hidden in his stomach, and the fluctuations belonging to the Nine-Star Xuanshi were completely revealed. He said lightly: "I came here because I want to ask you something."

When he felt the fluctuations of the Nine Star Mystic Master emanating from Xu Ji's body, Shan Shi bowed down and said, "Sir, just ask, I will definitely tell you everything."

Even though he had already guessed that Xuanjie is a pure predatory society, Xu Ji did not expect Shanshi's low profile. However, he was just slightly stunned before Xu Ji realized it, nodded slightly, and continued to speak calmly. Said: "I heard that you experienced the war of the Zizhu tribe thirty years ago? Tell me everything you experienced, saw, and knew."

After hearing Xu Ji's inquiry, Shanshi unconsciously recalled the battle he had experienced in the Zizhu tribe thirty years ago. Shanshi also hesitated slightly, but he did not expect that this unknown strong man was actually targeting the Zizhu tribe. Come, but now the power is stronger than the people. Although the Yushan tribe is a subsidiary of the Zizhu tribe, it is impossible for Shanshi to hide it for the Zizhu tribe in this situation.

"Thirty years ago, I had not yet broken through to the Mysterious Master. I was just a high-level Mysterious Master. I went to the Zizhu Tribe to purchase some necessities for the Yushan Tribe. But just when I was about to return to the Yushan Tribe after purchasing the necessities, the battle was going on. Suddenly it exploded."

"Several mysterious masters in the Zizhu tribe are besieging another mysterious master of unknown origin, and the mysterious master who is besieged is also extremely powerful, driving many ghosts and resentful ghosts, facing many mysterious masters from the Zizhu tribe The siege did not fall short, even the aftermath of the confrontation caused a lot of casualties. "

Shan Shi paused for a moment before Xu Ji frowned and asked, "What next?"

Shanshi coughed twice: "Then I was busy running away and didn't pay attention to the war that broke out."

Hearing Shan Shi's words, Shan Yan standing aside had a strange look on his face. It seemed that this was not the version he had heard before? Although I forgot the first part, the middle part, and the last part, I still vaguely remember the version my leader told me before that he should have witnessed the whole process of the war with his own eyes and played a big role in it.

Shan Shi noticed Shan Yan's strange look at him, glared back, and Shan Yan couldn't help but clicked his tongue in his heart, "I can't offend him, I can't offend him."

Xu Ji frowned with some dissatisfaction when he heard this. Although based on the siege by many Zizhu tribe mystical masters and the driving of ghosts and resentful ghosts, there is no doubt that the besieged mystical master should be You Jiuge, but he always felt that something was missing. critical information.

Seeing Xu Ji frowning, Shan Shi immediately added: "Afterwards, I also inquired about the specific situation of this battle out of curiosity. It is said that the monk who was besieged in the end had one arm cut off but he escaped. The leader of the Zizhu tribe, Zhu Yunhe, was seriously injured and died just a few months later. Three low-level profound masters also died in this battle. "

"So what's the current situation of the Zizhu tribe? How many mystical masters are there? How many high-level mystical masters are there among them?"

"Today, the Zizhu Tribe has fourteen profound masters. Among the high-level profound masters, only Zhu Jiuxiao, the contemporary leader of the Zizhu Tribe, is a seven-star profound master."
