Dragon Devouring Cultivation

Chapter 174 Going deeper
Li Zhen felt like he was walking in a bizarre world. The depths of Yinfeng Valley and the outside world were two completely different worlds.

Just as he was sighing, Captain Duan had already sent out a fireball, which hit a shadow.

A painful scream came from the shadow, and then a black mist rose from the shadow, condensing together into a tall figure.

This is a giant zombie that is two and a half meters tall. Its cold aura has reached the early second stage. This is also the first second stage zombie Li Zhen has seen since entering the Yinfeng Valley.

The fireball had limited damage to the giant zombie, and the giant zombie pounced towards Captain Duan.

Although the giant zombie looks clumsy, it is actually very flexible and extremely fast. While Captain Duan was still preparing the second spell, the attacks of the other students were nimbly dodged by it.

If the giant zombie is not stopped, the consequences will be disastrous once it gets close.

Yi Xueer has taken out a second-grade top-grade talisman. If Captain Duan is really defeated, she will use the second-grade top-grade talisman.

The materials for making second-grade top-grade talismans require the fur of second-grade late-stage monsters. Of course, this is just one of many options. The other materials for making second-grade top-grade talisman paper are also extremely precious. For example, second-grade top-grade talisman paper made from second-grade top-grade spirit tree leaves through multiple processes is not as easy to process as hunting second-grade late-stage monsters.

In addition, there are not many talisman makers who can make second-grade top-quality talismans, which are considered high-end spiritual objects among foundation-building cultivators.

Just as the giant zombie was about to approach Captain Duan, a bolt of lightning fell from the sky and struck the giant zombie.

The giant zombie's body froze, and its entire body remained stiff and motionless.

How could Captain Duan and the others miss this opportunity? The huge zombie that had lost its speed was a sitting duck, and it did not recover from the paralysis caused by lightning until it was killed.

"It seems that this fighter armor is really suitable for you, so I'll give it to you!" Captain Duan laughed.

Of course he was happy. Li Zhen, wearing fighter armor, provided help to the team with his thunder magic, which allowed them to reduce the number of times they used their trump cards and also made the battle easier.

Therefore, he generously gave the fighter armor to Li Zhen, because the fighter armor was particularly suitable for Li Zhen.

"Thank you, Captain!" Li Zhen did not refuse Captain Duan's kindness.

With this fighter armor, it will be easier for him to explain the origin of the fighter armor.

Although he had a fighter armor before, he could only use it secretly, especially in the fairyland. If he really wanted to use the police fighter armor, the origin of the police fighter armor would be discovered soon.

That fighter armor was damaged in the last battle, and there is no place to repair it yet.

This fighter armor with a clear origin allows him to wear armor and fight at any time in the future.

The student in charge of collecting in the team came to the fallen giant zombie and began to collect materials from its body.

The fangs of the giant zombie, a small ball of black blood in the heart, and something whose function Li Zhen couldn't understand, were transformed into pieces of material and sealed in the student's hands.

After that, every time you walk a certain distance, you will encounter one or more second-level zombies.

As for ordinary second-order early and middle-stage zombies, Li Zhen's thunder magic made them stiff, and then the other students came up to finish them off. The second-order early and middle-stage zombies were killed without even having a chance to attack.

Of course, it was not all smooth sailing. When Captain Duan killed a second-level intermediate zombie and was about to let the student in charge of collecting come forward, a zombie suddenly approached Captain Duan and attacked him.

The accident came too quickly. This was a late-stage second-order zombie, and its strength far exceeded that of any member of the team.

Li Zhen had the fastest reaction speed. With a wave of his hand, lightning and thunder were faster than the attack of a late-stage second-stage zombie.

With a loud 'boom', the second-stage late zombie was struck by lightning. Its body shook slightly and then it recovered.

Although the effect of thunder magic was not as satisfactory as expected, it only took a moment to get Captain Duan out of danger.

"Retreat!" Captain Duan said in a deep voice.

Except for Li Zhen and Yi Xueer, everyone else in the team has been working together for many years.

As soon as Captain Duan gave the order, the team members threw flash bombs, smoke bombs and, most importantly, jamming bombs.

Flash bombs blinded the monsters temporarily, smoke bombs blocked their vision, and jammers disabled their perception. All of this was done to withdraw from the battlefield. The team quickly retreated, and Li Zhen looked at the helpless and furious second-stage monster. It was impossible to escape from so many influences in a short time.

"Change direction and go deeper!" Captain Duan looked back and could no longer see the shadow of the late second-stage monster, so he stopped and said.

He pulled out the map and began to study it, but once he got inside the Valley of Darkness, the map was much less useful.

He finally made a decision and went in one direction.

"Constrain your breath and observe the ground carefully. The Yinma Guizhi is lurking here. We only have one chance!" Captain Duan reminded.

Li Zhen used the 'Qi Concealing Technique' to restrain his breath. He found that all the students in the team had their own secret methods of concealing their breath, which were many times more advanced than his 'Qi Concealing Technique'.

Of course, the 'Qi Concealment Technique' was not a profound technique. He lacked a systematic technique now. However, his strength was increasing too fast, so he did not need to worry about this aspect too much.

This time, everyone was more careful and the radar system was turned to maximum. Li Zhen also turned on the scanning system of the fighter armor.

"Li Zhen, do you have any life-saving item similar to the escape technique?" Yi Xueer asked Li Zhen softly.

In her hand was a second-level golden escape talisman. The number of treasures she had shocked Li Zhen.

"Does this count?" Li Zhen asked, taking out a first-grade top-grade 'Lightning Movie Talisman'.

"It's good to have a life-saving talisman. If you don't have one, I can give you this one!" Yi Xueer carefully examined the 'Lightning Movie Talisman' and nodded.

Although the 'Thunder Movie Talisman' is a top-grade first-class talisman, and is not as good as the second-grade golden escape talisman in Yi Xueer's hand, the thunder escape method is the most convenient and fastest escape method. Even if it is only a top-grade first-class talisman, its speed is not much weaker than the second-grade golden escape method.

Gold Escape requires a second-order flying sword as an inducement, and the gold escape is performed with the help of the metal sword body of the second-order flying sword. The speed of gold escape depends on the grade of the second-order flying sword. The higher the grade, the faster the speed.

"You know thunder magic. Did you make this 'Thunder Movie Talisman' yourself?" Yi Xueer suddenly thought of something and asked.

No wonder she was curious. There weren't many cultivators with the talent of thunder spirit root. How could it be such a coincidence that the first-grade superior 'Lightning Movie Talisman' in Li Zhen's hand was newly drawn not long ago upon closer inspection.

Judging from these things, it is very likely that it was drawn by Li Zhen.

"I have some talent in making talismans!" Li Zhen did not hide it. There was no need to hide such a thing.

Now that he had the background of Aoki University and a variety of means of protecting himself, he no longer had to worry about others having any strange thoughts about him over some trivial matter.

Of course, if he is involved in huge interests, so great that others can ignore Aoki University, they will still target him.

This requires Li Zhen to consider the balance between what can be made public and what can only be kept to himself.

"Really?" Yi Xueer confirmed in disbelief.

Although it is only a first-grade top-grade 'Thunder Movie Talisman', considering that this thunder escape technique becomes stronger as the level of cultivation increases, when Li Zhen becomes a foundation-building cultivator, the 'Thunder Movie Talisman' he draws will most likely be a second-grade talisman.

Even the current first-grade top-grade 'Thunder Movie Talisman' is a good life-saving talisman for most students.

Li Zhen took out two more first-grade top-quality 'Thunder Movie Talismans'. At this point, he didn't need to explain too much. The first-grade top-quality 'Thunder Movie Talismans' in his hand were the best evidence.

"How much is this talisman?" Yi Xueer asked, trying hard to suppress her surprise.

Captain Duan, who was walking in front, couldn't help but turn around and look at Li Zhen, waiting for Li Zhen's answer.

"We only accept credit transactions. I'm afraid you don't have many credits!" Li Zhen said to Yi Xueer with a smile.

Yi Xueer is only a freshman and has not done any tasks, so she doesn’t have many credits.

"I have my own way to buy credits. How about one for 50 credits?" Yi Xueer did not give up and asked again.
