Chapter 15 The Stupid Beast
Faced with the call for help, Chen Beiwu hesitated for a moment and did not choose to go forward immediately. Instead, he carefully walked around and carefully observed the details of the footprints around him.

He squatted down, brushed away the dry grass that covered the footprints, stretched out his right hand to grab the remaining brown-red mud on the edge of the mark, crushed it in front of his nose and sniffed it.

"It's dried monster blood, and it smells different." Chen Beiwu's eyes flickered as he looked towards the source of the sound.

The setting sun was as red as blood. A young girl curled up under an ancient tree, whimpering weakly and calling for help.

Perhaps because she was too tight on money, the coarse linen skirt she wore could only cover her key parts, revealing her somewhat dark limbs.

Her right leg was stuck in a rusty trap, the iron teeth deeply embedded in it, making it impossible to move.

Dark red blood continued to drip from the wound, staining the soil under the tree brown-red.

The medicine basket that the girl was carrying also fell to the side, and more than a dozen stalks of threadweed were scattered on the ground.

At this time, the girl seemed to have realized something and slowly raised her head, revealing her hair that was stuck together by cold sweat. Her eyes just met Chen Beiwu's.

"Help... Help!" The girl seemed to have no strength to struggle, and her cries for help gradually became inaudible.

Chen Beiwu looked indifferent as he watched the girl sob quietly.

Seeing this, the girl's eyes gradually became desperate.

After hesitating for a moment, she gritted her teeth, slowly twisted her body, stretched out her rough palm to scoop under the medicine basket, and took out a magical herb with opposite, wrinkled leaves, small serrations on both sides of the edges, and sparse red hairs on both sides of the serrations.

It was a second-level spiritual medicine that was over a hundred years old: Blood-faced Vine.

"Please save me, sir. I have a treasure to offer you."

"Don't be afraid, girl. I'm here to help you."

Chen Beiwu showed a greedy look and walked quickly towards the blood-faced vine.

"Shh!"

At the moment when Chen Beiwu was about to touch the blood-faced vine, a yellow-brown animal tail suddenly emerged from behind the girl and attacked his chest with a fishy and evil aura.

"Why don't you keep pretending?"

Chen Beiwu retreated three feet, dodging the beast's tail and flicked his fingertips. A crystal-clear needle, with the help of the pure magic power in his body, broke through the demonic energy at an extremely fast speed, leaving a green needle hole on the girl's body.

"How did you find out?"

The girl smiled strangely, and the pale skin on her face melted like snow, revealing an ugly weasel head. The trap on her right leg also transformed into a poison ivy trap covered with barbs.

"But it doesn't matter. With your seventh-level Qi training level, there's no way you can escape from my grasp." The phantom rat wolf grinned, and its powerful mental power instantly directed towards Chen Beiwu.

It practiced hard for three hundred years and devoured a large amount of blood and food before accumulating its cultivation to forty-nine years.

If it could devour the human Qi-refining practitioner with a pure and spiritual physique in front of it, it might be able to break the shackles of its bloodline and be promoted to a second-level spiritual beast. The spiritual power that had been accumulated in its body for many years and could not be further improved would also have a breakthrough.

[Species]: Phantom Wolf (commonly known as Phantom Wolf)
【Attributes】: Water, Poison
[Bloodline]: First-class (Exotic Beast)

[Daoist experience]: Less than 50 years

[Talent]: Eye-catching Illusion (the illusion created by the Phantom Rat Wolf can deceive the five senses)

Seeing the other party tear off his disguise, there was no surprise on Chen Beiwu's face.

Beasts are beasts. Even if they absorb the essence of the sun and the moon and breathe in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to gain intelligence, they cannot defeat humans who are good at planning.

"Zizzizi!"

At this moment, the phantom rat wolf's hideous smile stopped abruptly, and a look of horror appeared on his face.

"Laugh, why don't you continue laughing?" Chen Beiwu said coldly.

If they were to fight with real weapons, it would be difficult for him to kill a strange beast whose aura was comparable to that of a ninth-level Qi training cultivator. He might even need to use talismans to retreat safely.

However, the other party was foolish, overconfident in his own talent, and actually wanted to use a trap to kill him without any harm, but in the end, it gave him an opportunity to use his own tricks against him. "Damn it!"

Feeling the demonic energy in its body being eroded by the toxin, the Phantom Rat Wolf's heart trembled. Without thinking, it simply stuck its butt out and sprayed out a large cloud of foul odor to cover up its own tracks.

Although it has a high level of cultivation, it is not good at close combat due to its racial characteristics.

Having lost the illusions it usually relied on, coupled with the adverse effects of poisoning, it is very likely that it will fall into the hands of a Qi-cultivating cultivator.

How long will it take if you don’t run away now?
After picking up the blood-faced vine that fell to the ground, Chen Beiwu did not chase it directly, but kept a distance from the phantom rat wolf.

He neither gave the other party a chance to fight to the death nor gave him time to find herbs to remove the poison.

An hour later, the phantom rat wolf suddenly stopped fleeing, and taking advantage of the blind spot in the bushes, turned around and planned a sneak attack. But before it could exhale the stench, Chen Beiwu retreated another three feet, completely widening the distance.

As time went by, the eyes of the phantom rat wolf gradually became dull and lifeless.

Perhaps knowing there was no way to escape, the phantom rat wolf began to change direction and gallop away.

"That's the Blue Rock Lion's territory!"

Chen Beiwu's expression changed, and he took out a first-grade, top-grade water blade talisman with a painful feeling.

The strategy of killing the Phantom Rat Wolf without taking any damage is safe, but if you continue to sneak away like this, the piece of meat is likely to fall into the mouth of the Blue Rock Lion.

"call out!"

"call out!"

"call out!"

As Chen Beiwu injected magic power, ripples appeared on the surface of the talisman, and then shattered in the air, turning into hundreds of water lines as thin as hair.

These water lines intertwined into a net, and in the blink of an eye, they condensed into three water blades as thin as cicada wings, catching up with the running phantom rat wolf.

In an instant, the head flew up.

Or perhaps he died too quickly, there was still an expression of incredible fear in the eyes of the Phantom Rat Wolf.

Chen Beiwu couldn't wait to step forward, walked to the corpse of the phantom rat wolf, picked up the bone blade, first took out the opponent's blood, then skinned it and collected the tail hair.

The fur of the phantom rat wolf can be processed into good talisman paper, and the tail hair can be used to make wolf hair brushes, both of which can be sold at a high price.

Taking into account the blood-faced vines used by the phantom rat wolf as bait, Chen Beiwu can be said to have made a huge profit.

"This is the meat of a giant monster. It would be a shame to throw it away." Chen Beiwu hesitated for a moment and separated the phantom rat wolf meat and put it away.

Just because human monks can’t eat phantom rat wolf meat doesn’t mean iron eggs can’t.

Exotic beasts can devour each other to accumulate spiritual power, but few cultivators would use the method of feeding blood to improve the spiritual power of fellow beasts.

It's okay to feed it some blood, but if you feed it too much, not only will the beast's temperament become ferocious, but the wildness hidden deep in its blood will also be more difficult to remove, and it may even devour its master.

Tiedan is an intelligent fire-type beast that can ignore the toxins remaining in the meat of the phantom rat wolf. Eating a small amount of blood food to improve his cultivation should be harmless and will not cause him to lose his mind.

But in order to ensure that Tiedan would not lose control, Chen Beiwu decided to roast the phantom rat wolf meat before feeding it.

However, doing so will result in only one tenth of the demonic power in the phantom rat wolf meat remaining, greatly reducing the effect of improving cultivation.

Return to the training room.

Chen Beiwu weighed the heavy package in his hand, his eyes revealing an excitement that was hard to conceal.

"Dead things can be carried and transported by touch, but what about living things?" He looked at another bottle expectantly.
