Chapter 202 Hunting for Fake Pills [5K]
"Now, even if I only rely on my physical combat power, I can be equal to half of a fake pill cultivator. Add in my magic power and various magical powers, and my overall strength should be enough to rival the top fake pill masters."
A smile appeared on Ye Linyuan's lips, but his brows soon frowned slightly.
Because after cultivating a quasi-third-level combat body, it is not an easy task to further cultivate a third-level combat body.
To complete this step, a large amount of flesh and blood of high-level ferocious beasts is needed, preferably the flesh and blood of ferocious beasts at the false pill level. After absorbing a large amount of flesh and blood of ferocious beasts, flesh and blood Taoist patterns will emerge in the body.
When the Dao patterns are full, and then by refining some kind of matching physical treasure, one can evolve the physical magical power on his own. Only in this way can one cultivate the third-level combat body.
"It seems that we need to hunt down the fake Dan sea beast."
Ye Linyuan pondered in his heart, and then said carefully: "Fake Dan sea beasts are rare in the Seven Domain Alliance, and it is quite difficult to find them."
"If you want to hunt the Fake Dan Sea Beast, it's best to go outside the Seven Domain Alliance."
Ye Linyuan kept thinking in his mind and soon came up with a plan.
It just so happened that the King Kong Ape's fighting spirit had already reached its limit, and further fighting with an ordinary Foundation Establishment Great Perfection cultivator would not bring about much improvement.
So Ye Linyuan summoned the King Kong Giant Ape back, and then took Han Chi and the King Kong Giant Ape, as well as the three most trustworthy women, Shui Hanqing, Zhou Yuwan, and Chu Lingxi, away from the Seven Domain Alliance.
They reached the depths of the vast ocean and came to the nameless island left behind by Taoist Cang.
Here, Ye Linyuan released Han Chi and King Kong Giant Ape, then looked at Han Chi and asked: "If you break through to the Golden Core now, how confident are you?"
"With my foundation and the inner elixir of the demon king, I have a 60 to 70 percent chance of breaking through this time."
After Han Chi hesitated for a moment, he said with a serious look.
Ye Linyuan nodded. The bloodline of the True Spirit descendant was extraordinary. Even without the help of any external objects, there was a 30% chance of breaking through to the Golden Elixir stage.
For ordinary Jindan cultivators, there is basically no danger of dying if they fail to break through the Jindan stage. At most they only need to cultivate for a few decades before they can break through again.
After each failed breakthrough, you can gain some experience and foundation, which will increase the success rate of the next breakthrough a little.
In addition, when the True Spirit Heir is in the foundation-building stage, the lifespan is basically more than 500 years, so the probability of the True Spirit Heir being promoted to the Golden Elixir stage is extremely high.
Generally speaking, as long as it takes another two hundred years to break through, even without external help, the success rate of forming a golden elixir in the future will not be less than 70% to 80%. This is also the reason why most of the descendants of true spirits can break through to the golden elixir.
Of course, Ye Linyuan certainly couldn't wait two hundred years. He still needed Han Chi to protect him. It would be best if Han Chi could achieve enlightenment before he broke through.
Fortunately, Han Chi still has a cold dragon inner elixir, which is extremely compatible with her. After swallowing it, it can increase her chances of forming an elixir by 30%, so the probability of Han Chi breaking through to the golden elixir for the first time will not be less than 60%.
But even so, Ye Linyuan still felt it was not safe enough.
So after he pondered for a moment, he said, "This time I brought you to the deep sea to hunt some fake Dan sea beasts on the edge of the deep sea."
"The inner elixir of the fake sea beast is a great tonic for you. If the properties match, it will be enough to replenish your foundation and increase the success rate of forming an elixir a little bit."
"Even if the properties are not very compatible, it can still be used to refine the Yuan Storage External Pill, which can slightly increase the success rate."
Upon hearing this, the King Kong Giant Ape and the Cold Dragon nodded.
The inner elixir of sea beasts with matching attributes is a great tonic for the demon race. After swallowing it, it can greatly improve their foundation and base, and increase the probability of breakthrough by 10% to 20% when forming the elixir.
Of course, with the cultivation level of the foundation-building realm, only the descendants of the true spirit can directly swallow the inner elixir of the fake elixir sea beast.
The physical constitutions of humans and ordinary monsters are much weaker. Except for physical cultivators, ordinary people who have reached the great perfection of foundation building dare to swallow the inner elixir of fake elixir sea beasts. They are probably in great danger of exploding and dying.
As for the external elixir for storing magical power, it is a disposable internal elixir used to store magical power.
This item can store additional mana of the cultivator, allowing a person to have more true essence when his cultivation level breaks through. This is very useful for cultivators with weak mana, but it has no effect on Ye Linyuan.
As a descendant of the true spirit, Han Chi and the Fighting Golden Ape also have unlimited potential, but neither of them is known for their powerful magical powers. If they can obtain an external elixir to store essence in the future, it can slightly increase the success rate of forming the elixir.
Let's get back to the point. After listening to his story, the giant ape immediately said, "With the master taking action, it should be easy to kill the fake Dan sea beast."
"We two will also help with all our strength and try our best to help the master kill the big monster."
Ye Linyuan nodded upon hearing this, and then looked at Shui Hanqing and the others and said, "The Fake Dan Sea Beast is very powerful, and even if two or three Fake Dan warriors join forces, it is likely to escape.
"In order to avoid accidents, we are going to set up a large formation again to hunt down the monsters in the deep sea."
Having said this, Ye Linyuan began to set up the formation.
He used the lower-grade third-level spiritual vein in this place as the foundation and set up two sets of powerful third-level formations.
The first formation is called the Five Elements Formation. This formation is based on the Five Elements formation diagram and five spiritual weapons. It is a third-level lower-grade formation.
This formation has both defensive and enemy-trapping effects. With the blessing of the third-order lower-grade spiritual vein, and activated by a cultivator in the late foundation-building stage, it should be able to trap a powerful enemy at the fake elixir level.
The second formation is the Three Wonders Immortal Burial Formation. This formation is composed of three inferior magic weapons. It is a third-order inferior composite formation. Setting it up here is enough to severely damage the Fake Pill Master.
Seeing that the formation was successfully arranged, Zhou Yuwan couldn't help but say: "With these two sets of formations, plus the fake pill puppet and the young master's combat power, it should be enough to hunt down the fake pill sea beast."
“But it may not be an easy task to lure the fake Dan sea beast into the formation.”
Ye Linyuan was well prepared. He casually took out a small pale blood-colored tree, on which grew a blood-red elixir.
The moment the King Kong Giant Ape saw this spiritual fruit, his eyes suddenly showed a fiery look.
Even Han Chi looked over and showed a hint of excitement.
Chu Lingxi was surprised when he saw this and said, "Bloodline Fruit."
"That's right." Ye Linyuan nodded, and then said: "With the help of this thing, it is not difficult to attract the fake Dan sea beasts around."
It turns out that this blood fruit was the same blood fruit that Ye Linyuan had obtained from the blood lake in the Blood Prison Forbidden Land.
As a rare second-level treasure, the importance of the Bloodline Fruit is self-evident.
Some demons in the late stage of foundation building with strong bloodline potential will have at least a 30% chance of transforming into true spirit descendants after taking this substance. Even if the transformation fails, there is a great possibility that they will transform into false elixir quasi-demon kings.
Such treasures are very effective against big monsters at the fake elixir level or even the golden elixir level.
Because if the second-level rare bloodline fruit continues to be cultivated, it has the potential to be cultivated into a third-level top-grade rare bloodline fruit. As long as there are enough resources, there will not be too many bottlenecks before cultivating the third-level top-grade fruit.
It is precisely because of this that the value of the Bloodline Fruit is extremely precious and is extremely valuable in the entire Seven Domain Alliance.
Of course, it is not easy to cultivate a third-grade top-quality bloodline fruit, because without a third-grade blood spirit field and a third-grade top-quality spirit plant, an ordinary Jindan cultivator can only cultivate a second-grade rare bloodline fruit at best.
But no matter what, the second-level rare bloodline fruit is extremely precious. Once the strange fragrance it produces spreads, it is enough to drive the surrounding high-level sea beasts crazy.
Knowing this, Shui Hanqing said, "It is still quite dangerous to use this thing to lure the fake Dan sea beast, and if we are not careful, it may even trigger a beast tide. We must prevent the situation from getting out of control."
Ye Linyuan nodded and said solemnly: "I have prepared a special formation that can control the spread of the blood fruit's fragrance."
"As for the beast tide, it's not a big problem."
Having said this, Ye Linyuan looked at the cold dragon and said, "As long as the cold dragon reveals its aura, low-level sea beasts and monsters should not dare to approach it."
Upon hearing this, everyone present nodded immediately.
As a descendant of a true spirit with the blood of a true dragon, Han Chi contains a faint trace of dragon power.
Even though this dragon's might is very weak, it is enough to intimidate ordinary Qi-cultivating and foundation-building monsters, making them dare not approach this place.
Only a few sea beasts that have reached the great perfection of foundation building and the false elixir level, or powerful demons that are the descendants of true spirits, can overcome the dragon's might and come to compete for the bloodline fruit.
In this way, it will not trigger a beast tide. As long as it does not trigger a large-scale beast tide, they should be able to fight even if a sea beast in the early Jindan stage comes.
After understanding this, Ye Linyuan immediately began to set up the formation. He first planted the blood fruit on the top of the mountain, and then used a set of formations to control the smell of the blood fruit.
Generally speaking, the attraction generated by the second-level rare bloodline fruit in this vast sea area is enough to cover an area of tens of thousands of miles.
However, with the existence of this formation, the fragrance is able to be amplified and spread to a farther distance, and it can also suppress the fragrance to a very short distance.
After the formation was set up, Ye Linyuan looked at Shui Hanqing and the others and said, "Hanqing, you will be responsible for controlling the Three Wonders Formation, and Yuwan, you will control the Five Elements Formation."
"Let Chu Lingxi and the others activate this aura-controlling formation."
"it is good."
The three women nodded and immediately took control of a formation respectively.
When the three of them took control of the formation, Ye Linyuan immediately said, "First, control the smell to 10,000 miles, and then seal the smell when the fake pill monster arrives."
Upon seeing this, Chu Lingxi immediately controlled the coverage of the blood fruit fragrance, and then they began to wait.
At the same time, as the fragrance of the Blood Fruit spread, countless sea beasts in this sea area were alarmed.
Countless sea beasts were excited and began to move towards the nameless island, but when they were a thousand miles away from the island, they were so frightened that they dared not approach.
In the face of the true dragon power of the North Sea Cold Chi, these sea beasts with extremely low intelligence were all terrified and did not dare to fight for the blood fruit at all.
Under such circumstances, everyone waited for seven or eight days, and only encountered three sea beasts that had reached the great perfection of the foundation building stage.
The three sea beasts were quickly killed by Ye Linyuan, and the sea beasts that had reached the great perfection of foundation building were also full of treasures.
Ye Linyuan estimated that after he processed this batch of materials, the flesh and blood he obtained would be enough to greatly increase the cultivation level of the foundation-building monsters in the golden-backed giant ape tribe.
The bones can be used to refine a batch of special spiritual tools, and grinding them into powder can also play a great role in cultivating high-quality spiritual fields in the future. The fur obtained is more than enough to refine dozens of second-level high-quality spiritual talismans.
Unfortunately, even in the deep sea, powerful sea beasts are very rare.
There are only a limited number of powerful sea beasts within a radius of ten thousand miles. After three of them were killed to perfection in the foundation-building stage, no sea beasts came for a long time.
"It looks like we have to expand the scope."
Ye Linyuan pondered in his heart, and then asked Chu Lingxi to expand the attraction of the Blood Spirit Fruit to within 20,000 miles.
After doubling the distance, the area covered increased fourfold, and the number of monsters attracted quickly increased dramatically.
This time it took half a month, and more than a dozen sea beasts that had reached the great perfection of foundation building arrived. After a fierce battle, their harvest increased a lot.
It was not until more than half a month later, when no more foundation-building demons arrived, that they expanded the range to a radius of 30,000 miles.
This time, all of them looked a little solemn.
Because a radius of 30,000 miles is considered a considerable distance in the deep sea, the possibility of the appearance of false dan sea beasts in such a vast sea area is not low.
In fact, this was true. After they had been waiting in the deep sea for only a few days, they sensed the arrival of a group of extremely powerful auras.
It was a group of giant whales, led by a false dan giant whale. In addition, there were more than a dozen powerful giant whales in the late foundation building stage.
"It's a group of deep-sea giant whales."
"It's a pity that it didn't transform into a sky whale."
The moment he saw this group of giant whales, Ye Linyuan's brows furrowed slightly, revealing a hint of regret.
Shui Hanqing's foundation of Taoism is to cross the sea and kill a whale. If he wants to break through the golden elixir realm, he needs an extremely precious treasure, which is the rare soul of the sky whale.
The deep-sea giant whales are an extremely powerful group of giant whales. The bloodline of this clan is extremely powerful. The lowest of them are second-level alien spirit beasts. The best among them even have the possibility of transforming into sky whales.
The Sky Whale is a descendant of the True Spirit, and the best among them are even comparable to the top True Spirit descendants. They all have the possibility of transforming into the True Spirit of Heaven and Earth, the 'Holy Kun of the North Sea' in the future.
Of course, the Sky Whales are all descendants of the True Spirits. After reaching adulthood, they will all break through to the Golden Core realm. If they can truly transform successfully, they will not stop at the False Core realm.
Moreover, this place is located on the edge of the deep sea of the Seven Domain Alliance. The depth of the sea water and the concentration of turbid spiritual energy are still far from enough, making it difficult to attract Jindan sea beasts to live here.
"Everyone hide your aura and activate the formation to let them in."
Back to the topic, after confirming the giant whale group, Ye Linyuan immediately gave an order, and Zhou Yuwan saw this and hurriedly released the Five Elements Formation.
Ye Linyuan immediately used the Black Turtle Breath-Concealing Technique to conceal the breath of everyone, and even used the Divine Secret Technique to try his best to confuse the giant whale's perception.
But the group of deep-sea giant whales still lingered there for a while and did not immediately enter the formation here.
The deep-sea giant whale clan practices with turbid spiritual energy. Under the erosion of turbid spiritual energy, their intelligence is not very high, but they have been able to live safely to their current level of cultivation, so naturally they have the instinct to seek good fortune and avoid danger.
At this time, the group of giant deep-sea whales clearly felt the abnormality in this place.
But the fragrance of the blood fruit was still too tempting. According to the false pill sea beast, if he could swallow this pill, his own blood might even undergo some transformation.
If he could transform into the legendary sky whale, the inherited power from his true spirit bloodline might allow him to be reborn and enter the realm of the Golden Core Demon King.
Under this temptation, after repeated searches, they still did not detect any aura of the Golden Core level, and finally could not help but rushed into the formation.
"Do it."
Seeing the giant beast charging in, Ye Linyuan immediately used the Wanhua Sword Technique to suppress the Fake Dan Giant Whale, and then used the Fake Dan Puppet to suppress it together, and at the same time summoned everyone to hunt it down.
Seeing this, the others also took action.
Zhou Yuwan was the first to take action, blocking the retreat of the deep-sea giant whales with the Five Elements Formation. Shui Hanqing then activated the Three Wonders Immortal Burial Formation and began to strangle those giant whales in the late foundation building stage.
Chu Lingxi was not idle either. She first used a formation to block the fragrance of the Blood Spirit Fruit, and then summoned her flying sword to help.
The fake elixir whale faced the joint suppression of Ye Linyuan and the fake elixir puppet. Although it could barely resist by relying on its thick skin and flesh, it soon fell into an absolute disadvantage.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the cold Chi and the golden-backed giant ape also took action and quickly hunted down these foundation-building sea beasts.
Among the many fighting forces present, Han Chi is a descendant of the true spirit. His cultivation has reached the state of great perfection in foundation building. His fighting power is enough to match that of three or four ordinary great perfection masters in foundation building together.
The King Kong Giant Ape is much weaker, but it can also be considered a fighter who has reached the great perfection of the foundation building stage.
Although Shui Hanqing is not very good at formations and is currently only at the middle level of the second rank, and cannot unleash the full power of the Three Wonders Immortal Burial Formation, the power he can activate the formation is comparable to that of a top-notch fake pill master.
Chu Lingxi's strength was a little weak, but he was not considered a weakling in the late stage of foundation building.
Faced with the killing attack of the three powerful men and the Three Wonders Immortal Burial Formation, the giant whale tribe soon suffered heavy casualties. More than a dozen giant whales in the late stage of foundation building and above only lasted for a short time before they were all killed.
Only the fake elixir whale still had the power to resist even when facing the siege of Ye Linyuan and the fake elixir puppets.
Unfortunately, as all the giant whales died in the battle, the only fake dan giant whale was unable to hold on alone.
In the end, it was hunted by Ye Linyuan, the fake pill puppet, and the Three Wonders Immortal Burial Formation and it lasted for three full days before being killed.
"What a powerful life force."
After successfully killing the giant whale, Ye Linyuan couldn't help but take a deep breath, then he smiled.
This giant deep-sea whale at the fake dan level has extremely strong defense and vitality. If it is not trapped by a formation, even two or three fake dans working together may not be able to kill it.
After all, although the deep-sea beasts have low intelligence, they are not stupid. If they are defeated in a battle, they will know to escape. Once they dive into the deep sea, the human race's fake Dan Zhenren will have no way to deal with them.
Even for a powerful person in the early stage of Jindan, it would be difficult to kill a fake dan giant whale in the deep sea.
The reason why Ye Linyuan dared to come to the deep sea to hunt the fake dan sea beast was because there was a third-level spirit vein here, plus he had a mature blood spirit fruit and two third-level low-grade formations.
