Chapter 729 Hunting
Cheng Mo and the others are not monster hunters and lack experience, so they have to start from easy to difficult, step by step.
The disciple is in the middle, holding a candle in his ink painting and meditating.
The map of Demon Refining Mountain has been drawn.
He also had a rough idea of the various second-grade early-stage monsters in the Demon Refining Mountain.
Everything is ready, and it’s time to think of a way to fight.
Mo Hua compared the map of Demon Refining Mountain with the map, looked through it for a long time, drew up a route, selected the monsters, and made plans.
The next day, Mo Hua revised a letter and handed it to Master Gu, asking Master Gu to help customize a batch of armors.
A few days later, when the armor was finished, Mo Hua found Cheng Mo and said straight to the point:
"Ten days off the next day, come with me to the Demon Refining Mountain."
Cheng Mo's injury was just fine. Hearing this, his heart palpitated. He only felt a dull pain from the injuries on his body.
He still dreams about being slapped by a bear.
As a loser, Cheng Mo bravely said: "Little brother, don't worry, I will definitely protect you when you enter Demon Refining Mountain!"
However, after showing off, he still asked cautiously: "Senior Brother, why did you go to Demon Refining Mountain?"
"What do you mean?"
Cheng Mo's confidence was a bit lacking, "It's impossible... I'm going to hunt monsters..."
Mo Hua nodded, "You are so smart."
Cheng Mo smiled bitterly, but couldn't help it.
He looked at himself, who was tall and strong, but had been slapped by a bear and lay there for nearly half a month.
I looked at the thin skin and tender meat again. Although it had grown a bit, compared with myself, it was still an ink drawing of small arms and legs...
Cheng Mo whispered: "How about we forget it first? A gentleman's revenge is not too late in ten years. Let's let those monsters in the mountains go first."
Mo Hua said: "Are you afraid?"
Cheng Mo sneered, "I'm not afraid, I'm afraid the monster will hurt you."
"It's okay," Mo Hua said proudly, "Didn't I tell you, I am a demon hunter, and this skill is passed down from my ancestors!"
Cheng Mo had a complicated expression.
That being said, the key point is that no one really believes it...
Moreover, the mountains are different, the monsters are different, and the hunting methods are also different.
You can't use the "sword" from your hometown to kill the demons in Qianzhou...
Seeing that Cheng Mo didn't believe it, Mo Hua sighed:
"Okay, then I'll find someone else."
When Cheng Mo heard this, he immediately became anxious.
It doesn’t matter whether you hunt monsters or not, but you must hold your thighs tight!
We have been getting along for a long time, and Cheng Mo is quite familiar with Mo Hua. He knows Mo Hua's extraordinary mental strategies, incredible formation skills, and unfathomable background.
Even Mr. Xun, who has always been selfless, will support him.
These are real thighs!
Even if the younger senior brother just goes for an outing to the Demon Refining Mountain to enjoy the scenery, he still has to follow him.
Cheng Mo said with a smile: "Aren't I afraid that my injury will hold me back... If you don't dislike it, little senior brother, then no matter what you do, I will be obliged to do it!"
The implication is that you must take me to play.
"Okay." Mo Hua nodded with satisfaction.
Cheng Mo naturally pulled Situ Jian and others along.
Demon Refining Mountain is difficult to get along with, monsters are difficult to kill, and merit points are hard to earn. Tickets require a hundred merit points. With their current level of cultivation, they will basically lose money if they enter Demon Refining Mountain.
Situ Jian and others had already given up, thinking that they would go into the mountains to hunt monsters when their cultivation levels were high.
But when Cheng Mo said that Mo Hua was going to take them into the mountains, their already depressed hearts quietly revived.
Although I don’t know what Mo Hua’s method is, he can enter the dangerous Demon Refining Mountain and hunt down the ferocious and bloodthirsty monsters.
But there's nothing wrong with following your little senior brother.
This is a hard truth summarized based on past experience.
So during the ten-day break, Mo Hua stopped by the Gu Family Merchant Pavilion in Taixu City, took some spiritual weapons, simply drew the formations, then met up with Cheng Mo and others, and headed to the Demon Refining Mountain together.
When they arrived at the gate of Demon Refining Mountain, everyone spent a hundred merit points to buy a Demon Refining Token, and then entered the mountain.
But when they entered the mountain, Mo Hua didn't notice that a handsome, elder-like man not far away glanced at them without revealing any trace.
This person was Elder Xun who was entrusted by Mr. Xun to take care of the ink paintings.
His surname is Xun and his given name is Ziyou. He is from the Xun family and is a direct descendant of Mr.
Seeing the ink paintings entering the mountain, Xun Ziyou sighed slightly.
"here we go again……"
He originally thought that after Mo Hua wandered around the mountains for two consecutive ten-day breaks, he would be at peace for a while, but unexpectedly, he thought of going into the mountains again.
And this time, there were four little kids following behind.
Doesn't he want to hunt monsters this time?
Xun Zi leisurely evaluated the cultivation strength of several disciples in his heart, and shook his head slightly.
"A bit suspense..."
When encountering a second-grade early-stage monster, it is not impossible to fight, but the risk is too high.
Moreover, there are strong and weak monsters in the early stage of the second level.
It's okay when you encounter a weaker one, and you can still run away if you can't win.
If you encounter a strong one and cannot win, you may lose your life in the Demon Refining Mountain.
Xun Ziyou finally took a sip of tea reluctantly.
"The free days are gone again..."
It was troublesome enough to stare at one before, but now in the blink of an eye, I have to stare at five...
Xun Ziyou smacked his lips and felt that the tea tasted bitter. He shook his head and told the disciples guarding the door: "You guys keep an eye on the mountain gate. I'll go into the mountain and take a look."
The disciples on the side saluted one after another: "Yes, Elder."
Xun Ziyou flashed and walked into the Demon Refining Mountain.
At this time, at the foot of Demon Refining Mountain, on a big rock, five people from Mo Hua were sitting cross-legged, gathered together.
Mo Hua said: "This time we hunted a second-grade elementary monster named Cang Mu Lang..."
Cheng Mo and others nodded nervously.
Mo Hua continued: "Cang Wood Wolf, a five-element wood wolf demon, two people tall, with a green body, poisonous claws and strong demon power, and wood-brown pupils. The more people kill, the darker the pupils will be, and they may even be bloody... "
"The attacks of the Cang Timber Wolf are similar to those of ordinary wolf monsters, mainly biting, killing, gnawing, and flicking its tail."
"The saliva is poisonous, and it often licks its hair, so the hair is poisonous."
Mo Hua took out the storage bag and said, "These are four pieces of Yimu armor, which are designed to protect against wood-type demonic power. They also have a poison-repelling array. If you put them on, you can resist most of the Cang Wood Wolf's attacks..."
Situ Jian couldn't help but said: "Senior Brother, what about you?"
"I don't care," Mo Hua said, "I rely on my physical skills and concealment, Cang Timber Wolf can't touch me."
Wearing bulky armor would actually affect his movements.
And he doesn't need to fight head-on, he only needs to support him secretly. The mere Cang Timber Wolf cannot threaten him at all.
After that, Mo Hua briefly talked about the habits of the Cang Timber Wolf.
At the same time, he emphatically explained the tactics and procedures for hunting monsters, and warned: "You must act according to the plan, and you must not make any mistakes."
Cheng Mo and others all nodded, amazed in their hearts.
Although they had always believed in their younger brother, they never expected that a demon hunting plan could be so thoughtful and well-planned. It looked very "professional" at first glance.
They never thought about it this much.
Xun Ziyou in the distance nodded slightly.
Plan in advance and act later.
Instead of being full of passion, he rushes forward recklessly and fights the monster to the death.
He is indeed much better than ordinary children from aristocratic families.
When everything was ready, Mo Hua said: "Let's go!"
So a group of five people set out to hunt the first monster beast on the Demon Refining Mountain - the Cang Wood Wolf.
The Cang Timber Wolf is a wood monster that likes poisonous forests and shrubs.
According to his habit, Mo Hua walked lightly in the mountains while letting go of his consciousness to look for traces of the Cang Timber Wolf in the mountains.
Occasionally, other second-grade elementary monsters will be encountered.
Cheng Mo then asked: "Senior brother, don't we kill these monsters?"
Mo Hua shook his head, "Just kill the Cang Timber Wolf."
Seeing that everyone was a little confused, Mo Hua said: "The goal must be clear, the plan must be thorough, and the execution must be resolute. You must not be greedy, let alone create extraneous matters..."
"If there are extraneous branches, there will be additional troubles, and the cause and effect will be unpredictable."
Unpredictable cause and effect?
Cheng Mo and others didn't quite understand, but they nodded obediently.
After searching like this for half an hour, Mo Hua found traces of the Cang Timber Wolf under a giant tree.
It has black-green hair and plant venom.
Following the trail, it took more than half an hour for Mo Hua to track down a second-grade, beginning-level monster that was two people tall and had a ferocious look: Cang Timber Wolf.
"Be careful of poison, don't be greedy for merit, be careful of it cheating death..."
Mo Hua reminded him again, and then officially started hunting.
He first observed the Cang Timber Wolf's trajectory, and on its inevitable path, he set traps in advance and buried the formations of the ground killing array.
He also used the environment to cover up the traces.
Grass powder was sprinkled to eliminate the smell.
He did all this with ease, and the formations were arranged flawlessly.
Afterwards, everyone hid in the woods nearby.
After burning the incense, Cang Wood Wolf walked over, walked into the trap, and triggered the formation.
There was a sudden rumble and dust was flying.
The second-grade earth killing array exploded, and the earth-type spiritual power spread and strangled like a dragon snake, sweeping around and smashing the nearby mountains, rocks, vegetation, and trees into pieces.
When the dust and smoke dissipated, Cang Wood Wolf was covered in bruises and dark green poisonous blood flowed along his hair and onto the ground. His demonic eyes were filled with fear and anger.
Without giving him a chance to breathe, Mo Hua said in a deep voice:
"Kill!"
Cheng Mo and others, who were shocked by the power of the ground killing array, came to their senses, remembered Mo Hua's instructions, no longer hesitated, and charged forward with all their strength.
For a moment, the roars of monster beasts and the shouts of monks alternated.
Demonic power and spiritual power are intertwined.
Cheng Mo had a strong aura and was holding a mountain-cutting ax with great power. He faced Cang Timber Wolf head-on. Yang Qianjun's spears shot out like dragons, and he focused on attacking at close range.
Situ's sword is like a fire, killing from a distance.
Hao Xuan could no longer use the stick, so he picked up the spirit sword he had been practicing since he was a child, and used the sword energy on the side to repair the damage.
Mo Hua also took the opportunity to add a few spells, either to interrupt Cang Timber Wolf's offensive, to deepen his injuries, or to restrict his movements.
Cheng Mo and others were still wearing Yimu armor.
The Cang Timber Wolf's attack hit them, and most of its power and poison were neutralized.
But Cang Mulang couldn't bear the attack from Cheng Mo and others.
The situation is gradually becoming clearer.
The seriously injured Cang Timber Wolf was defeated and wanted to escape.
But as soon as its eyes rolled, Mo Hua saw it and shouted in a clear voice:
"It wants to run away, leave it!"
Cheng Mo yelled, "You evil beast, look at the axe!"
Then the two axes had the power to cut through the mountain, and they slashed towards Cang Mulang's waist.
Yang Qianjun's eyes condensed, and the tip of the spear condensed with golden light, and it went straight to the throat of Cang Wood Wolf.
Situ Jian and Hao Xuan pursued with sword energy.
Mo Hua cast a water prison technique, trapping Cang Wood Wolf for a moment.
The Cang Timber Wolf had no way to avoid it, and it took so many attacks. Finally, it looked up to the sky, roared unwillingly, and fell to the ground.
Everyone looked happy, but then they remembered Mo Hua's advice: "The monster is cunning by nature and will often cheat to death. After it falls to the ground, you must be more careful..."
Several people were shocked and did not dare to be careless.
So according to the plan, Cheng Mo and Yang Qianjun were on guard at close range, while Situ Jian and Hao Xuan condensed their sword energy to hit the target from a distance.
Cang Wood Wolf was hit by several sword energy, and he started to flutter again.
Everyone besieged him for a while, but Cang Timber Wolf fell to the ground without making any waves, completely dead.
Cheng Mo and others' backs were covered with sweat, and their arms were a little numb. Looking at Cang Timber Wolf who fell to the ground and expired, they were happy but still a little unbelievable.
died!
They relied on their own abilities to kill a second-level junior Cang Timber Wolf? !
Although it was mainly due to the junior senior brothers, they could be considered to have put in a lot of effort.
On the other side, Xun Ziyou also looked a little startled.
Killed...so quickly?
From preparation in advance, to tracking clues, to setting up an ambush, to encirclement and killing, and finally preventing fake death.
The arrangements are clear.
This wooden wolf died without any surprise.
Are monsters so easy to kill?
Xun Ziyou looked at the crowd silently, strategizing, and Mo Hua looked calm, with some incredulity in his eyes.
His spiritual roots are middle to lower, his blood is weak, and his qualifications are only average, but his mind and resourcefulness are definitely not ordinary.
Wood and stone are outside, and gold and jade are inside.
If this child is not limited by his spiritual roots, his future prospects are absolutely limitless.
The way our ancestors looked at people was truly terrifying.
Cang Timber Wolf is dead, but his blood has not yet dried.
Mo Hua immediately took out a clean jade porcelain vase and used the blood drawing technique he had learned from his junior sister to bleed Cang Mulang.
This blood is used to adjust the spiritual ink.
A total of ten bottles of blood were drained.
Mo Hua looked at the jade porcelain bottle and symbolically asked Cheng Mo and the others, "Do you want any of this blood?"
Cheng Mo and others were very eye-catching and shook their heads, "No."
They are not formation masters, so what do they want with this demon blood?
What's more, how can the young senior brother ask for something that he likes?
They're not stupid.
Mo Hua nodded and put all ten bottles of demon blood into his storage bag with peace of mind.
He was going to stock up on more demon blood and prepare more spiritual ink.
In this way, he doesn't have to spend meritorious deeds on his spiritual ink, or even spend any spiritual stones to buy it.
Spiritual ink must be accumulated, spiritual stones must also be accumulated, and meritorious deeds must be accumulated even more.
The more you save, the better!
Mo Hua put away the spiritual ink, clapped his hands, glanced at Cang Timber Wolf, and then said:
"Let's dissect the body."
It is impossible to take such a big wooden wolf back. According to the normal method of monster hunters, they would dissect it and then bring back the valuable materials.
But there is no need for Mo Hua to do this kind of thing.
Cheng Mo, carrying two big axes, began to dissect the Cang Timber Wolf.
Mo Hua was directing from the side, telling him where to chop with the ax, which bones to pick out, which internal organs were more valuable...
Cheng Mo's technique was a bit unfamiliar, and after struggling for most of an hour, he finally managed to finish it.
The Cang Timber Wolf was skinned and deboned, his appearance was beyond recognition, and blood flowed all over the ground.
The scene was a bit bloody, and Cheng Mo and others felt a little uncomfortable for a while.
Mo Hua was used to it, and he also told Cheng Mo: "When it comes to dissecting monsters, practice more next time. You must be quick with your hands and feet. The faster the better, otherwise you will have to go through a lot of hard work to kill a monster." , it would not be a good idea to be hit by other monsters or targeted by other monks before you can get it."
Cheng Mo nodded repeatedly.
The Cang Timber Wolf was dissected and put into a storage bag.
It was getting late, and Mo Hua and the others headed back home.
When they arrived at the mountain gate, a few people sold all Cang Mu Lang's materials.
Cang Mu Lang's materials are not too expensive, and Mo Hua and the others don't specialize in training tools, so they won't be of much use if they are kept.
It's okay to go out and sell it, but if you go out and sell it, you'll get spiritual stones.
If you sell it in Demon Refining Mountain, you will get meritorious service.
The wood wolf's head, damaged fur, spine, claws, tail, and some liver and gallbladder can all be sold at high prices.
After calculation, there were actually 2,500 merit points.
On average, a person has 500 merit points. Excluding the 100 merit points from the Demon Hunting Order, each person can earn a net 400 merit points.
Of course, the consumption of purchasing spiritual weapons, armor, elixirs, and formations must also be deducted.
However, these were all bought with spirit stones, and Cheng Mo and the others didn't care if their merits were not wasted.
After receiving the meritorious service, several people looked excited.
Cheng Mo and others wanted to share Mo Hua's 200 merit points.
After all, this hunt for the Cang Timber Wolf basically relied on Mo Hua to help prepare spiritual weapons, formulate plans, and provide guidance all the time.
Without Mo Hua's action, this Cang Timber Wolf really couldn't be killed.
They also believed that Mo Hua must be a demon hunter, otherwise he would never have such rich experience.
Hao Xuan looked even more impressed and asked:
"Senior Brother, have you killed many monsters?"
Mo Hua humbly said:
"Okay……"
He only used formation support, so he didn't kill too many, but his record was pretty good.
So far, his most glorious achievement as a demon hunter is killing a...
A great evil demon named "Feng Xi".
But it was hard for him to say it.
Because others will think he is bragging.
The next day, Mo Hua led Cheng Mo and others to follow the same pattern and hunted another wooden wolf.
This time it was still smooth.
After a brief summary, Mo Hua determined a set of tactical procedures for stably hunting the Cang Timber Wolf based on the monster's habits and the terrain of Demon Refining Mountain.
Including what spiritual weapons to prepare before entering the mountain;
After entering the mountain, how to investigate, how to track, how to set up an ambush, how to surround and kill, how to finish, how to deal with various issues...
This process is only for Cang Timber Wolf.
Eat the meal one bite at a time.
When hunting monsters, you have to learn one by one.
Most of the fellow disciples are novices. At first, it is certainly impossible for them to be able to hunt all monsters.
Let them start by hunting the Cang Timber Wolf, gradually adapt to the process of hunting monsters, accumulate confidence and experience, and then gradually become a qualified monster hunter.
Mo Hua nodded and sighed in his heart.
This little senior brother of mine has really good intentions.
Who is as kind-hearted as me...
Afterwards, Mo Hua came to Cheng Mo again and said, "Look, if anyone else wants to play in Demon Refining Mountain, let them come to me."
He wanted to popularize this demon hunting process among Taixu Sect disciples.
So at night, Cheng Mo brought a few more disciples over.
Several people stood upright in front of the ink painting and said in unison:
"Hello, little senior brother!"
Mo Hua nodded and asked, "Do you want to enter Demon Refining Mountain?"
"yes!"
Mo Hua didn't show off, simply took out a jade slip and handed it to them.
"Start by hunting down the second-grade Cang Timber Wolf. Don't be too ambitious, and don't be careless."
"Here is the entire process, follow it step by step..."
Then the ink painting will explain the precautions in detail, from investigation, to hunting, to skinning and deboning.
He even thoughtfully told them where to buy some of the array mediums and spiritual tools used in the process.
All the disciples were extremely grateful and said one after another:
"Thank you, little senior brother!"
So after that, at the gate of Demon Refining Mountain.
Elder Xun discovered that more and more disciples of Taixu Sect, wearing the same armor, carrying the same formation, using the same formation and the same pace, walked into the Demon Refining Mountain to hunt the same kind of monster. Already...
Thank you to Pangpangyu, angelo_0415, 11sen, and Xiang Laodai for the rewards~
