An alchemy furnace fell from the sky

"Boss! Boss!"

Not long after, the skinny monkey came back. Before anyone arrived, he started shouting impatiently, and his voice sounded particularly loud in the silent forest.

Except for Jiang Jie, everyone else looked over at the same time and saw the skinny monkey with a look of ecstasy on his face.

"San Gou was beaten into a pig's head, and the bastard who kicked me just now is also dead. No one in the Dragon and Tiger Gang can stand up now. It's really satisfying to watch! You didn't see the miserable appearance of San Gou. He was the ugliest one. I even stepped on him twice. Hahahaha..."

Skinny Monkey finished speaking in one breath and burst into laughter.

"Great!"

Chen Yuxiu was also very happy when she heard Skinny Monkey's description. Compared with the miserable situation of the Dragon and Tiger Gang, she cared more about the fact that Yu Tian did not lie to them.

"We still have to be careful. Let's sleep here tonight and continue our journey tomorrow."

Xiang Tianlei did not appear as happy as Shouhouer and Chen Yuxiu, and his expression remained calm.

At this time, the moon was already at its zenith. Everyone sat or lay around the fire, and there was no conversation all night.

The birds in the forest always get up early. At daybreak, everyone is awakened by the noisy bird calls.

For spirit beast hunters like them, sleeping in the woods was a common occurrence, so they naturally didn't take it seriously. However, either because they were frightened or excited last night, almost no one slept well. Even Xiang Tianlei, who looked quite calm, looked tired. Skinny Monkey's eyes were red, and he cursed those noisy stupid birds while getting up reluctantly to clean up.

Among the people present, only Xu Fu and Jiang Jie were energetic. For a high-quality cultivator, as long as they could calm down and practice, they would not feel tired even if they did not sleep for a day or two.

Everyone ate some dry food and then set off on their journey again.

This forest is where spirit beast hunters make a living, and Xiang Tianlei is naturally very familiar with it. There are some wild beasts and birds on the outskirts, but there are very few spirit beasts. If one wants to hunt prey that can be sold at a price, he must go deeper into the forest.

"Be careful!" After the team had walked for about an hour, Xiang Tianlei suddenly spoke up to remind them.

There are no obvious dividing lines in the areas where spirit beasts are distributed. Everything depends on the experience and intuition of the spirit beast hunters. Xiang Tianlei has experienced many life-and-death experiences before he developed such a sensitive intuition.

Xiang Tianlei glanced at Jiang Jie. Although this powerful magic practitioner still looked calm, Xiang Tianlei still keenly caught the strange look in his eyes.

"What spirit beast did he come for?"

Xiang Tianlei had guessed countless times in his mind, but he still had no accurate answer. In fact, when the one-eyed dragon died, he had already thought about retreating, but Jiang Jie insisted on moving forward.

Although Xiang Tianlei is the leader of this beast hunting team, he dare not go against Jiang Jie's wishes. Jiang Jie is a ruthless character who can kill the one-eyed dragon with one move, and he also has a magic weapon for self-defense. If he really annoys this man, the consequences will be disastrous.

Because of Jiang Jie's persistence, even Ming Jing, who had been complaining all the time, became much more obedient, as if she was frightened by what happened last night. Now, no matter where Jiang Jie goes, she follows him obediently.

"There's a pair of white-headed chickens over there!" The skinny monkey suddenly discovered his prey and greeted them in a low voice with joy.

When everyone looked over, they found a pair of beautiful pheasants lying on a tree branch not far away.

The white-headed pheasant is considered a spiritual bird. Its meat is not only delicious, but also contains spiritual power. It has always been sought after by diners. No matter who catches a living adult white-headed pheasant, they can sell it for more than fifty silver coins in any restaurant.

It’s a pity that the number of white-headed pheasants is so small that it depends entirely on luck to encounter one. Otherwise, catching them alone would be enough to feed these spirit beast hunters.

The skinny monkey put the knife back into his waist, took out a lasso, and prepared to go forward and capture the pair of pheasants.

Xiang Tianlei and Chen Yuxiu did not step forward to help. For spirit beast hunters, the white-headed pheasant was the easiest spirit bird to capture. With Skinny Monkey's skills, capturing it would not be a problem at all. If there were too many people, it would be easy to disturb it.

"Move forward!"

Jiang Jie suddenly said in a cold voice, his tone brooking no room for argument.

The skinny monkey was stunned at first. He didn't understand why this always taciturn "great master" suddenly started to take care of hunting. However, he didn't dare to complain. He could only put away the lasso obediently and watch the white money fly away from his eyes.

The group walked for a while, and Shou Houer found a few green-horned sheep, which were real fifth-grade spiritual beasts. Not only him, but even Xiang Tianlei became excited. If they could catch one, it would be enough for them to spend for half a year.

"Keep going." Before Xiang Tianlei could speak, Jiang Jie refused mercilessly.

"This……"

The skinny monkey was very dissatisfied. The green-horned sheep was the highest-grade spiritual beast they could hunt. If they didn't even want this, then what was the point of their trip?

However, the skinny monkey's dissatisfaction was suppressed by Xiang Tianlei's eyes. At this time, Xiang Tianlei no longer had the intention of taking advantage of him. He just hoped to send this "uncle" away as soon as possible. This trip would be in vain!

Since the day they set out today, Xu Fu has been following obediently at the end of the team. He has been paying close attention to Jiang Jie, and his interest in this seventh-grade magic practitioner has been growing.

As the team continued to move forward, the trees and weeds became more and more lush. Xiang Tianlei, who had been leading the way in the front, became more cautious. This was an area he had never been to before, and he knew he had to remain vigilant at all times.

"This way."

Whenever Xiang Tianlei was hesitant, Jiang Jie would give guidance with an incomprehensible tone, as if this was his backyard.

Everyone was confused, but no one dared to ask. Jiang Jie seemed like a different person at this moment, so cold and indifferent that it was difficult to approach him.

Xu Fu was equally curious, so he mobilized a tiny bit of spiritual power to circulate in the meridians around his eyes.

"Spirit Fire Eye, open!"

Xu Fu discovered that ever since he cultivated the Clairvoyance, his Spirit Fire Eye seemed to have "opened up". Even without deliberate cultivation, it would gradually improve and now had reached the realm of "seeing everything clearly".

With his eyes flashing, Xu Fu soon discovered the clue.

An extremely thin needle was hovering in front of Jiang Jie. If it didn't contain some spiritual power, it would have been difficult to notice.

Every time they walked a certain distance, Jiang Jie would take out a fine needle and then order the troops to move forward in the direction indicated by the needle.

Xu Fu observed it for a while and suddenly figured out what the needle was.

"Spirit-guiding needle!"

This is a very rare magical instrument. No one knows who made it, and the craftsmanship has long been lost. Only a few remain in the world.

Xu Fu had only seen records of this item in books, and even in Yibaohang, he had never seen anyone selling it.

The Soul-Guiding Needle is not a magical weapon for fighting. It has only one function, which is to help people find the place with the most concentrated spiritual energy nearby. It is a hundred times more sensitive than the spiritual perception of a cultivator.

"He actually has a spirit-guiding needle? Does he know something?"

Xu Fu looked at Jiang Jie's back and felt that the old man became more and more mysterious.
