Transmigration begins with archery training

The Phoenix Stone Beast itself cannot move, but the pollen it emits can attract a spirit beast called the "Greedy Moon Wolf".

He could determine, based on the droppings, footprints, and fur of the Greedy Moon Wolf, that the Phoenix Stone Beast was likely to be found in places where the wolf frequently gathered.

The cooking skills I learned at Hutou Mountain in Poyang back then are still helping me to this day.

After searching for a hundred miles, the surrounding terrain became extremely flat, and the environment became lush and verdant, with the spiritual energy reaching the third level!

This was Chen Sanshitou's first time coming into contact with third-order spiritual energy. He felt like a fish in water, and even had the urge to live and cultivate within the forbidden area.

But that is, of course, nonsense.

The Nine Nether Forbidden Land will close in two months at most, and spiritual storms are commonplace there; anyone who stays there will definitely not survive more than six months.

"Have it!"

Chen Sanshi's eyes lit up. He entered a state of concealment, crouched down gently behind a patch of grass, and looked ahead. He saw a spirit wolf with silver fur, its tail between its legs, sniffing the ground and searching for something.

In front of it blooms a magnificent spiritual flower, taller than a person. Its bright red petals are irregularly shaped, but when put together, they resemble a perched phoenix, hence the name Phoenix Stone Beast.

Unbeknownst to the wolf, it had arrived directly beneath the "phoenix," sniffing it repeatedly before discovering it was merely a poisonous plant. Disappointed, it bared its teeth and prepared to leave.

But at that moment, the "phoenix" above suddenly came to life, and abruptly opened a gaping maw full of white fangs from where the flower should have been, swallowing the Greedy Moon Wolf in the blink of an eye, leaving only half of its tail swaying slightly at its mouth.

The Phoenix Stone Beast is not aggressive after it has just eaten, so now is the best time to harvest it. It's just a pity that it looks like it's only about four or five hundred years old.

Phoenix stone beasts are already quite rare, and not only do they eat spirit beasts, but some herbivorous spirit beasts also eat them. Therefore, under natural growth conditions, it is difficult for them to live for more than three hundred years. This five-hundred-year-old one is already considered rare.

We can look for it again later. If all else fails, we can take it back and use the divine wood elixir that the Bai family promised to use to ripen it for a thousand years.

"This is?"

Chen Sanshi shifted his gaze from the phoenix stone beast to the grass further away, where he noticed an inconspicuous stone horn that looked like a rhinoceros horn.

A mature rhinoceros horn!

This item, along with the Immortal Grass and the Scenery God Fruit, is one of the rare and precious materials used to open the Scenery God's eyes.

It came to me without any effort at all.

Just as he was about to set off, his ears twitched slightly, and he sensed a whooshing sound rapidly approaching. Instinctively, he drew his bow and arrows, and at the same time crouched down even lower, completely concealing himself in the grass.

About three to five breaths later, three black-robed cultivators arrived at the scene, made hand seals to stop the magical artifact, and then landed steadily.

"This person..."

Chen Sanshi immediately recognized the black-robed cultivator at the head of the group as the one who had used black Gu worms to kill Wu Wei and silence him on that day at Luoxia Mountain.

After returning, he also consulted the ancient texts and learned that the name of the Gu worm was "Devouring Cicada". It could devour magic power and store it in its body, and then attack by self-destructing when it got close to the enemy.

People from the Seven Killings Sect were also in the forbidden area.

But it's normal.

The situation in the Nine Nether Forbidden Land this time is a once-in-five-hundred-years event. Anyone who gets the news and has time to come will want to try their luck.

"Deputy Hall Master."

A black-robed cultivator spoke up: "That old codger surnamed Bai has arrived in the secret realm. We hope the deputy hall master will gather at 'Night Spring Pool' as soon as possible."

"So fast?"

Qiu Yan nodded and said, "I understand. I'll go there as soon as I've gathered everything nearby."

"A rhinoceros horn, a phoenix and a stone beast!"

The other person exclaimed with delight, "Master, these are all good things!"

"haha, yes."

Qiu Yan stroked his beard: "Who would have thought that the Nine Nether Forbidden Land, which had been completely looted, had a second layer? We've really struck it rich this time. What are you waiting for? Go and gather the loot, then go and meet up with the sect leader."

"Disciple, obey."

The two monks then split up and began working.

Listening to their conversation, Chen Sanshi began to ponder.

Is that old codger surnamed Bai?

Bai Xifeng?

Are these people going to target the Bai family?

He didn't have much time to think, because the demonic cultivator in front of him had already uprooted the spirit rhinoceros horn and was about to take the phoenix stone beast.

The Purple Thunder Bow instantly reached its full extent, and four flying swords shot out with a roar.

"..."

Qiu Yan's hand, which was outstretched in front of the phoenix stone beast, froze. Startled, he quickly summoned a glass shield to protect himself.

"Rumble--"

Four flying swords descended carrying vast and boundless magical power, their terrifying might stirring up a storm that whipped up sand and gravel within a radius of dozens of feet, as if the earth itself were about to be torn apart.

However, Qiu Yan, who was inside the second-tier mid-grade magic artifact Sand Gold Glazed Cover, was indeed unharmed, except for a tiny crack appearing on the surface of the artifact.

"Xiao Feng, is that you?!"

He looked at the figure that suddenly appeared in front of him and recognized it as the person he had encountered on Mount Luoxia that day. He immediately raised his hand and waved it, and the glass cover in front of him disappeared. In its place was a beast that was completely black, shaped like a tiger, but with two heads, which pounced straight ahead.

Two-Headed Soul-Devouring Tiger!

"Roar!"

As the Soul-Devouring Tiger ran, one of its heads spewed out billowing blood mist, while the other head let out a long howl.

The sonic waves surged like giant waves, and a fire spirit bird that happened to be passing overhead was hit and fell straight to the ground, then was swallowed by the blood mist and instantly turned into a skeleton.

This Fire Spirit Bird, a second-tier Profound Body Realm spirit beast, was completely powerless to fight back!

The roar of the Twin-Headed Soul-Devouring Tiger can directly attack a person's consciousness, causing fainting or even death. Then, it can directly absorb the target's flesh and soul along with the soul using the Soul-Devouring Blood Mist.

Raising this beast requires feeding it with infants day and night, and then refining it with the souls of living cultivators. It is an existence even more cruel than the Myriad Soul Banner!

Thick earth battle!

Chen Sanshi was no longer a novice cultivator, so he naturally understood the power of this ferocious beast. He sealed off his hearing early on and then summoned his shield.

However, the Twin-Headed Soul-Devouring Tiger's attacks directly target the divine sense, so all of this is in vain.

The moment he came into contact with the sound waves, Chen Sanshi felt a sharp pain in his brain as if it were about to explode, and his body became heavy and stiff, almost causing him to faint on the spot.

Fortunately, he cultivated a variety of skills, including talismans, formations, alchemy, and even the Heavenly Evolution of Ten Thousand Weapons Technique, each of which could enhance the strength of his divine sense.

With all these factors combined, Chen Sanshi's spiritual sense was far stronger than that of other cultivators at the same level.

After a dizzy spell lasting about a breath, he regained most of his senses, crushed the talisman, and vanished into the earth, just in time to escape the overwhelming blood mist.

The soil and vegetation where he had originally stood had turned scorched black by the erosion of the blood mist.

"what?"

Qiu Yan was somewhat surprised.

This was the first time his Twin-Headed Soul-Devouring Tiger had failed in close combat against a cultivator of the same realm!
