Sea Cultivation: Giant Ships and Heavy Artillery Knock on the Door to All Races

Chapter 47: Repel the snake lizard and identify the demon pill

dong dong dong~
The target of the demon-hunting ship has always been this green-scaled dragon eel, not the two-headed snake lizard, which is also in the middle stage of the second stage and even has a more powerful aura than Jiu Ye.

As long as monsters of this level do not fight to the death with the monster hunting ship, they can stay or leave as they please, and it is difficult for the monster hunting ship to hunt them.

Of course, the monster hunting ship mentioned here naturally does not include the Hunter with the Blood Shark. A mere two-headed snake lizard is not enough for a monster to be killed by the Blood Hunter.

"Hiss~~"

The two-headed lizard was obviously anxious.

No, I was working for you for free, wasn't I?

This two-headed snake lizard is also a small overlord in the surrounding sea area. Every few years, it will find a way to hunt a second-level monster to assist in its cultivation. Of course, it will not allow the prey in its mouth to be snatched away.

It first used both heads to drag the prey, trying to resist the water and sink to wrestle with the monster-hunting ship, but it soon gave up this stupid practice. Not to mention wrestling with this behemoth, the monster-hunting ship could even easily retrieve it.

Then it tried to destroy the iron chain of the demon-hunting ship, but the reason why this seemingly ordinary iron chain was classified as a second-level resource was because it was extremely strong.

The chains could withstand the slashing of its claws and the corrosion of its poison. Even the violent torrent it unleashed with all its strength could not break the iron chains.

"Hiss~~"

Seeing itself being dragged closer and closer to the demon-hunting ship, it felt an inexplicable fear in its heart, as if once it entered a certain distance, it would be killed by this strange, seemingly harmless giant.

As a last resort, the two-headed lizard chose to give up the prey it had finally obtained, and settle for the next best thing, which was to take out the demon pill of the green-scaled eel. The essence was all in the demon pill.

Just as it was about to attack, Jiu Ye, who had been observing its behavior, acted decisively and activated the bow psychic cannon.

"Boom~"

White light spewed out, and the sensitive two-headed lizard nimbly retreated underwater, barely avoiding the attack. However, it injured the corpse of the green-scaled eel that had lost its magic power. Its originally bright red blood had turned red and green. The lizard's deadly poison had already contaminated the prey.

"Hi~"

The two-headed lizard emerged from the water again, and its originally angry eyes had become clear and rational. Even the seemingly dazed python head had become much calmer. It had realized that the big guy in front of it was not easy to mess with, even though the two sides had not yet officially started fighting.

"hiss~"

The two snake heads memorized the appearance of the demon-hunting ship and then sank into the water again.

"It's gone?"

"Gone, out of detection range."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief after learning that the other party had admitted defeat and retreated. No one wanted to face such a ferocious and terrifying poisonous beast.

"Lift!"

After repeatedly confirming that there was no danger, the engine formation finally pulled the prey out completely. Because the defense formation needed to be briefly opened during this process, the defense of the monster hunting ship was relatively weak, so extreme caution was required.

"This...it's so easy to get a second-level monster?"

Shopkeeper Zhang found it hard to believe. Shouldn't the second-level monster on the opposite side be so powerful that it could chase the monster-hunting ship away?

This was quite different from his understanding of monster hunting. Shouldn't a second-level monster hunting ship just be used to catch fish and bully first-level monsters?

But it's not his fault. The production method of the people on Yunshang Secret Island is different from that of the Yulong Islands. Shopkeeper Zhang is not a person of great power. He is in the Qi Refining Stage and has limited knowledge.

"Everyone stand back!" The target was emitting a corrupt and poisonous gas. Even the ownerless second-level poison gas was a major source of danger to Qi-refining cultivators, so Jiu Ye needed to dismantle this prey personally.

"Master Jiu is very skilled."

"Aren't you talking nonsense? Master Jiu was already on the Monster Hunting Ship at the age of eighteen, at the fourth level of Qi Refining. He worked his way up from the bottom as an apprentice shipman. How could he not be proficient in the job?"

There are many reasons why Jiu Ye has a very high prestige in the Lin family. One of them is that he started as an apprentice-level boatman at the bottom level. His growth path of relying on hard work, striving for the first place, and daring to fight to become a foundation-building captain is what ordinary boatmen admire most.

As Jiu Ye dissected the prey in a pleasing way, the flesh and blood of the green-scaled eel corroded by the blood poison was thrown over the monster-hunting ship, and even circles of red and green appeared where the rotten flesh entered the sea.

Although these things are extremely poisonous and pose a great threat to human monks, they will not destroy the balance. In fact, if they are thrown into the sea, they will soon be decomposed/eaten by various beings.

Although the two-headed snake lizard is an alien species, it is still a link in the food chain and is not afraid of its venom.

Throw away those that are difficult to use, and finally only leave its sturdy demon scales, uneroded bones, and the most important demon pill.

"It has too many impurities, violent connotations, and impure properties. It cannot be used as the main ingredient of the Foundation Establishment Pill."

After a quick examination, Jiu Ye sentenced this pure blue water-attributed demon pill to death.

"Pity."

The boatmen sighed when they heard this.

The development of immortal cultivation civilization to the current stage has already produced many recipes for foundation-building pills. Any pill that can simultaneously make up for the three barriers of essence, energy and spirit of Qi-refining cultivators and can save the lives of those who fail in foundation-building can be collectively called a foundation-building pill.

One of the elixirs uses the demon pill of a second-level demon beast with pure demonic power, gentle connotation and single attribute as the main ingredient. The essence and spirit condensed by this second-level demon beast for half its life can be carefully refined and transformed into the promotion resources for human cultivators.

However, although the recipe of this pill is simple, it is difficult to find a demon pill that can meet the medicinal standards.

Since Jiu Ye established his foundation, he first served as the deputy captain of the Wind Chaser and then as the captain of the Sea Hunter. All the second-level monsters that he assisted in killing or led in killing did not meet this condition.

This shows that the main ingredient of the Foundation Establishment Pill is difficult to find.

The Foundation Establishment Pill has the potential to change the fate of a Qi Refining cultivator, or even change the future development direction of a Foundation Establishment force or a second-level island. Naturally, it is extremely precious.

As the main ingredient for refining a furnace of foundation-building pills, the demon pill is naturally even more precious. Once one is hunted, it is worth many ship voyages and can directly change the fate of some people. Therefore, every demon pill identification session is the most anticipated link.

"I'm already very satisfied just picking up a second-level monster for free."

The flesh and blood thrown into the sea is actually the least valuable part of the monster. Most of its value lies in the skeleton and scales that can be used to refine weapons, as well as the monster pills that have various magical uses.

The moon is hidden and the stars are sparse.

The demon-hunting ship found a calm sea surface to hide and temporarily stop for the night. It is better not to run around at night.

At a distance from the monster hunting ship, the two-headed snake lizard, which had recovered well after driving away other monsters and secretly eating the rotten meat thrown away by the monster hunting ship, looked at the monster hunting ship fiercely.

"Hi~"

"Hi~"

A fierce dispute broke out between the two snake heads. One demanded revenge and tit-for-tat; the other advocated calmness. It had never seen such an unknown existence as the monster-hunting ship and planned to observe it for a while.
