Long Road to Stardom

Could it be that the monster came prepared, and seeing that she was only in the early stage of the Golden Core stage, it wanted to use her as a breakthrough point.

During the period of resisting the beast tide, Lin Xing discovered that these monsters were attacking in a regular pattern, and they were not attacking mindlessly like the beast tides she had read in books before.

Could it be that there were intelligent monsters among this beast tide? The more Lin Xing thought about it, the more possible it seemed, otherwise they would not have attacked in such an orderly manner.

Lin Xing suddenly felt heavy in his heart. It seemed that he would be in great danger in this beast tide. He didn't know if he could survive it.

But there's no point thinking so much now, I can only take it one step at a time.

Lin Xing returned to the formation to recover the spiritual power in his body.

In the following month, no third-level monster appeared, which made her suddenly feel a little uncomfortable.

A few days later, Lin Xing continued to control the formation and practice as usual.

But on this day, she felt something unusual, and she used her spiritual sense to probe outside the formation, but found nothing.

Just as he was about to retract his spiritual sense, Lin Xing discovered something strange. Why didn't the cultivators outside attack the monster in front of them but instead attacked their own people?

Oh no, this must be an illusion created by a high-level monster.

Lin Xing immediately sent the cultivators outside into the formation, but it was still a step too late. One of the cultivators was seriously injured by his own people and it was unknown whether he could survive.

She gave the cultivator a top-grade second-grade pill, but with his current level of cultivation, he could not bear pills above the second grade. Although she wanted to use the vitality to treat him, if she didn't kill the high-level monster outside, more cultivators would die here.

For the sake of the overall situation, Lin Xing could only choose the latter, hoping that this pill would last until she returned.

Lin Xing left the formation to look for the high-level monster, but after searching for a long time, he couldn't find any trace of it. It seemed that this monster not only knew illusion, but also had very sophisticated means of hiding.

Suddenly, the monster ring on her wrist moved unusually. She checked and found that Zhizhi had woken up. She untied the exit of the monster ring and "Zhizhi" immediately climbed onto her shoulder.

I saw "Zhizhi" complaining to her in dissatisfaction, but Lin Xing didn't have time to pay attention to it. The most important thing now was to find this high-level monster.

After a while, Lin Xing still had no clues. The "Squeaky" on her shoulder looked so gloating that she really wanted to beat it up.

But looking at its expression, it shouldn't know where the monster is. Lin Xing immediately took out a bottle of "Spirit Feeding Pills" to lure it. Sure enough, "Squeaky" was quickly fooled and took Lin Xing to a location where there were more than a dozen first-level monsters, pointing at a fox inside.

Lin Xing observed the fox for a while and indeed found something unusual. Not only did the fox not attack forward like other monsters, but it was commanding the surrounding monsters to attack a formation in "Qingbao Town".

Could this monster be the 'Phantom Fox'? She had seen it in a book before. This 'Phantom Fox' was not only powerful in illusion, but also very intelligent. It also liked to hide among low-level monsters and command other monsters to attack, but its own strength was not very strong.

Presumably, those cultivators just now were caught in the illusion of this 'Phantom Fox' and that's why they attacked their own people.

Lin Xing used a few spells to attack the 'Phantom Fox', only to see the 'Phantom Fox' turn around and stare at Lin Xing.

Lin Xing's surroundings changed instantly and she returned to where she lived as a child.

Unexpectedly, she fell into the monster's illusion at first sight, but the illusion seemed a little too real. Lin Xing suddenly saw the old lady she had been thinking about. Just as she was about to move forward, she heard a scream in her ears.

The surrounding environment collapsed in an instant, and the old lady not far away also disappeared.

Lin Xing woke up and found that he was almost pierced through the dantian by a monster.

She immediately used a defensive magic weapon to block the attack, and then a sword beam went out to kill the monster in front of her.

Then he looked at the position of the 'Phantom Fox' in front. The 'Phantom Fox' was actually killed by 'Zhizhi' with its neck bitten off, and the demon pill in its body was swallowed by 'Zhizhi' in one gulp.

At this time, she also saw the realm of this monster. It was actually a third-level high-level monster, equivalent to the late Jindan stage of humans.

She didn't expect that this 'Phantom Fox' would trick her with just one look. Fortunately, she had 'Zhizhi', otherwise she might have died here. Lin Xing was a little scared.

He picked up Zhizhi and rewarded it with a bottle of Soul Feeding Pills, then collected the monster's corpse and returned to the formation.

Lin Xing reached the first floor and saw that the cultivator's breath was getting weaker and weaker. He quickly stepped forward and used the 'Qingmu Jue' to inject vitality into the cultivator's body.

Fortunately, the place where the monk was injured was just a little bit away from the centrifugal core. If it was the center of the core, even the gods would not be able to save him.

After a cup of tea, Lin Xing had almost healed the monk's injuries and stopped.

Ma Zong also woke up at this time and found that his injuries had healed. He thought he was going to die here this time.

He remembered that before he fell into a coma, he was fed a pill by the Jindan Zhenren who controlled this place. Now the Zhenren was in front of him, so it must be the Zhenren who saved him.

Ma Zong quickly stood up and thanked Lin Xing for saving his life.

Lin Xing nodded in response, then stood up and prepared to leave. She found that the monks on the first floor were all looking at her with eyes of gratitude and admiration, which made her feel a little uncomfortable. However, she had long since mastered the skill of remaining calm, and did not reveal her discomfort at all.

However, she discovered that quite a few monks were injured in this attack by the monsters. Their injuries have not recovered for such a long time, and it is likely that all the elixirs they had were basically used up.

Lin Xing took out the first- and second-grade pills that he had no use for and handed them to a cultivator who had reached the great perfection of the foundation-building stage and looked like their leader, and told him to distribute the pills.

Jiao Lin took the pill from Lin Xing with mixed feelings. He had never thought that a Jindan cultivator would be so kind to cultivators like them.

During this period of time, this Jindan Zhenren had saved them countless times, and they didn't know how grateful they were in their hearts. Now he gave them so many elixirs, and they had no idea how to repay him.

Seeing Lin Xing was about to leave, Jiao Lin hurriedly said, "My lord, please stay. These are some high-level spiritual herbs I obtained in the Beiming Mountains. Please accept them."

Seeing Jiao Lin like this, other cultivators took out their valuable things and wanted to give them to Lin Xing.

Lin Xing didn't expect these monks to be so grateful to her, and she felt very comforted.

And the title of 'Adult' seems to be a good one.

Lin Xing was very happy, but she didn't show it. She said calmly, "I appreciate your kindness. I'm just dealing with some elixirs that I don't need. If you really can't bear it, you can exchange them for monster corpses or spiritual herbs of equivalent value."

After a while, Lin Xing received a large pile of spiritual herbs and corpses of monsters. Is this considered shooting himself in the foot?
