Devour
Chapter 18 Meeting
Before they knew it, another day had passed. Cheng Bai rode Xiao Bai to the center of the Fearless Wilderness. The surrounding view was vast and uninhabited. There were gusts of warm wind. They could hear the rustling of grass and the layered yellow land in the distance. Occasionally, they could see the long-weathered skeletons of wild animals.
The scenery here is colorful during the day, and when night falls, you will understand why the ancients said that the sky is dark and the earth is yellow.
The main demon species nearby is the giant sparrow, which is even bigger than those in the Ghost Forest. It is much taller than a human when standing on the ground. To be precise, the local species is called the giant sparrow. Its large body is not suitable for living in a dense forest. It is also much stronger and is still a delicious meal for Chengbai and Xiaobai.
The leg and breast meat of the giant sparrow are particularly delicious.
Cheng Bai used the best cooking utensils purchased from Yuheng City. He cooked the diced fresh meat into soup, added a lot of seasonings, and sprinkled sliced red jing seeds and rhizomes on it. He used grass leaves as fire starters to make a pot of tonic. The aroma was so fragrant when he opened the pot that he felt like a god falling from the clouds.
When Cheng Bai and Xiao Bai were salivating, an uninvited guest arrived upon hearing the news.
The stunning beauty riding a golden giant wolf approached Cheng Bai gracefully, looked at him again and again, jumped off her mount, and asked cheerfully, "Can we eat together?"
Cheng Bai and Xiao Bai both widened their eyes and nodded almost at the same time. Cheng Bai tried not to show his pig-like appearance, while Xiao Bai unscrupulously stuck out his tongue and flicked it.
"I'm Cheng Bai, what's your name?"
"My name is Ningxiang."
Ningxiang? Cheng Bai thought it sounded familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it before.
Both parties remained polite. The meat and soup were extremely delicious, melted in the mouth, and left a long aftertaste. It was just that I was extremely excited after eating and drinking.
Cheng Bai's breathing became rapid as he looked at the stunning beauty. She was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen, the most wonderful scenery in the world, with bones like water and skin like jade, and a beautiful figure that was even more enchanting. All flowers lost their beauty in front of her, and the stars and the moon lost their luster in front of her.
She was also looking at him, with fire burning in her beautiful eyes. Suddenly, she pounced towards Cheng Bai, with her clothes flying everywhere.
Two giant wolves, a male and a female, nearby howled loudly, one after another. They were equally excited and were getting closer and closer to each other.
Afterwards, Cheng Bai couldn't remember what happened that night. It was a chaotic night, as if he was wandering in Wushan Mountain in a dream, flying up to the sky. Life was like smoke, illusory, and he felt lost when he woke up.
The beauty had already gone far away, leaving behind only torn pieces of fur and clothing on the ground, one of the larger pieces even had a stain of blood that didn't belong to her.
He had been in the Fearless Wilderness for a whole day, barely hunting and cooking to fill his stomach. He said stiffly, "Last night was really an injustice."
During this period of time, Cheng Bai's skills improved greatly, like riding a rocket, breaking through to a new level that was unimaginable at the beginning.
The Six Paths of Supremacy skill was circulated to open up the eight extraordinary meridians. The seeds at the beginning grew into saplings, which can be considered a small achievement. Every move they made had a force of several thousand kilograms. At the same time, their spiritual consciousness was forged, their mental power was self-generated, and their mind was naturally refreshed. This was the amazing effect of the red essence seed.
He changed into another set of Moonlight Deer Fur clothing, and rushed towards Tianquan City with Xiaobai, who was still listless but had greatly increased his strength.
When you see the shell-like mountain that is hundreds of meters high, Tianquan City is not far away.
This city is much more prosperous than the previous two. The people live in peace and contentment, supplies are abundant, it is bustling with activity, and there is a constant stream of pedestrians.
Cheng Bai, riding on a huge monster mount, was not uncommon in the eyes of passers-by. The customs and atmosphere of the people were very different from those in the previous cities.
Occasionally, you can see handsome hunters riding black horses, yellow saber-tooth cats, white moonlight deer and other mounts on the streets, walking around arrogantly and proudly, each one more majestic than the other.
Cheng Bai stopped, jumped off his horse, and asked passers-by on the side of the road for directions.
A hunter riding a four-sided saber-toothed elephant passed by. Although this kind of monster beast is not very fast, it walks very steadily. The huge mount is wide and wide, several meters long, and the luxurious saddle can also block the sun and rain. Sitting on it is like sitting in a loft, which is quite popular among hunters who pay attention to style.
The street was narrow, and the hunter on the saber-toothed elephant shouted from a distance, "Everyone, please get out of the way."
Cheng Bai hurriedly moved aside with Xiao Bai to let him pass.
The hunter shouted again: "When a newcomer sees a senior, he must be courteous and step back ten steps. Didn't the elders teach you that?"
Cheng Bai estimated the width of the road. If the saber-toothed elephant walked carefully, it would not be difficult to pass by. Obviously, the hunter was not satisfied.
"Senior, please advise me. I am not thoughtful enough."
Cheng Bai simply picked up Xiao Bai, jumped back, jumped over the four-sided saber-toothed elephant, stepped back ten steps and said, "Goodbye, senior."
"You..." The hunter clearly felt like someone was stepping over his head. He felt uncomfortable but couldn't tell what was wrong. He turned around and gave Cheng a few more glances, then walked away with his head held high.
Cheng Bai continued to walk forward and chat with the passerby. The other party looked amused and couldn't help but say a few more words: "That is one of the most famous hunters in Tianquan City, Wen Mingxuan. The hunting team he organized has achieved remarkable results and is about to challenge the legend of the secret realm."
"Oh... I've heard a lot about you."
Cheng Bai didn't take it seriously. He asked for directions and came to the Hunter's Guild.
The guild's commission bulletin board was much larger than that of the previous cities, with more commissions updated daily. The most eye-catching one was to kill the Shadow Sparrow King in the Shell Mountain Secret Realm. Bringing back the target's head would reward 300 taels of gold. The mission bulletin was old and no one had completed it for many years.
Cheng Bai didn't pay attention to those things and was busy selling all the monster crystal cores and supplies.
The counter responsible for purchasing was luxurious and upscale. The teller in gorgeous clothes counted the items slowly and quoted the price: "4496 taels of gold."
Your hunting results are far better than before, but in Tianquan City, all the hunters will just look at you for a second and then ignore you.
The people here have pride and self-confidence that comes from the bottom of their hearts, and the basis for their corresponding temperament is sufficient wealth and strong strength.
Cheng Bai first paid 6000 taels to buy two large treasure bags, and returned the medium treasure bag to the guild for recycling. Finally, there was no need to worry about having no place to store the prey, and it could be stored in different categories in an orderly manner. Only when there was enough money in the pocket could there be a rich profit.
By the way, I asked the governor: "Are there any good treasures nearby?"
The governor said everything: "The best treasure in Tianquan City is the Canglang Axe, and the others are all in the Qizong store. The most famous treasures in the Shell Mountain Secret Realm are the dark feathers of the poisonous sparrow and the stone marrow of the petrified snake. If you are lucky, you can hunt some weaker ones in the outer area. It is recommended to form a team with hunters above level 18. There are stronger three-legged poisonous sparrows and two-headed petrified snakes in the depths of the secret realm, and the treasures are more effective."
The dark feathers are used for refining weapons, and the stone marrow is a precious ingredient for refining medicine. Both are precious materials. The abundant resources and production have made Tianquan City prosperous.
"Any special treasures?"
Cheng Bai was trying to find out more when someone behind him laughed out loud, "On the northern shore of Shell Mountain, there are often large groups of pearl shells clinging to the rocks during this season. There is a nearly 50% chance of finding pearls, aquamarine, cat's eye, zoisite, tourmaline, etc., all of which are valuable treasures."
Turning around, I saw that the man was Wen Mingxuan, the elephant hunter I met this morning.
Some hunters laughed and said, "It's much easier to pick up jewel shells there. At most there will be some murlocs. A level 4 hunter can go there."
"The most powerful tidal monster in the sea, it is very unlikely to appear during high tide, and it usually does not come ashore. It is difficult to see it even if you wait for it, so it is very safe."
Cheng Bai understood a little bit. Hunters looked down on new faces, and continued to ask: "I mean better and more precious treasures."
The governor racked his brains and told the truth: "In some places in the secret realm of Shell Mountain, there grows a plant that can sing, called Langman. The fruit it bears can nourish the throat, clear the voice, and treat loss of voice. Arrow grass is rarely produced in the Arrowtooth Grassland in the south, and its fruit can make a person as light as a swallow. These treasures are very expensive."
"no yet?"
"Further away there are even more precious treasures. The Joyful Valley in the Panqiu Mountains produces peaches, which are the main ingredients for refining the Heaven-Repairing Divine Power Pill. The Dark Spider Silk can be used to refine precious clothes, and there is also the Dragon Blood Tree."
Cheng Bai was a little disappointed as he saw him talking further and further away: "Are there no rarer treasures in the Shell Mountain Secret Realm?"
The governor was unable to speak for a long time, and reluctantly said, "There are many veteran hunters who have explored the secrets of Shell Mountain, and there are only a few treasures left from previous generations."
"What is the legend of the secret realm?" Cheng Bai asked curiously about the rumors on the road.
"It is said that at the highest point of the secret realm, the Shadow Sparrow King is guarding a big secret related to an ancient relic. No one is sure what it is. Neighborhood rumors are not to be trusted."
Seeing him hesitating, Cheng Bai thought to himself, "Could it be just eye-catching publicity?"
Since ancient times, mysterious legends have attracted people one after another, and unsolved mysteries are even more fascinating.
During the conversation, someone offered double the price to buy the Yinming Spider Queen crystal core that Cheng Bai sold. Crystal cores of this level are rare and hard to come by.
The hunters in the guild were in an uproar.
A hunter asked, "How many years has it been since a crystal core worth 6000 taels of gold appeared?"
Another person continued, "Brother, you don't know that sixty years ago, Palace Master Qiao Beihao killed a rare tidal beast, and someone offered 7000 taels for the crystal core but he didn't sell it."
Someone nearby also interrupted and said, "Later, Palace Master Qiao asked the Sect Master of the Weapon Sect to embed it on the Canglang Axe. The power of the treasure increased greatly and it became famous all over the world."
The hunter said enviously, "I wonder who will buy it today. Another great treasure is about to be born."
Another person hurriedly said, "The evil swordsman is so famous and powerful, sweeping across the secret realm, shouldn't it be easy to capture him?"
The hunter sighed, "That's easy to say, but without the right teammates to help, how can we easily challenge such a monster?"
