Chapter 183 Cooperation
Seeing the stone head of the gray-robed man separated, there were only a few complete limbs.
Lin Shilu breathed a sigh of relief and walked towards where Lin Tianming was.
At this time, Lin Tianming was sitting cross-legged on the mound. Because he had taken the healing elixir before, his injuries had improved slightly. Although he was unable to fight, he could already move around normally.
Seeing that Lin Shilu had killed the man in gray robe and was safe and sound, Lin Tianming was extremely excited.
"Tianming, how are your injuries?"
Hearing Lin Shilu's concerned greetings, Lin Tianming felt warm in his heart, and then said:
"They are almost all skin injuries. It won't take long to heal." Return to full strength."
Lin Shilu nodded, and then gave him a few words to reassure him that after recovering from his injuries, he walked towards the body of the man in gray robe.
After a fierce battle, the two finally decided the winner.
But this time it was really extremely dangerous. If he hadn't arrived in time, Lin Tianming might have died.
The man in gray robe was also extremely unlucky. With a dignified eighth-level cultivation level, he was actually killed by Lin Shilu, whose cultivation level was two levels lower than him, after repeated battles.
“This is really a trick of fate!”
Lin Shilu sighed, and then collected the storage bag of the man in gray robe.
After doing this, he immediately came to the edge of the pool and looked at the colorful golden lotus inside with a look of ecstasy on his face.
At this time, the colorful golden lotus has completely matured. The full lotus pod is inlaid with five crystal clear lotus seeds. The seven five hundred colorful petals that have fallen off long ago are floating on the clear water.
Lin Shilu reached out with his palm, collected the seven petals from the air, and then took off the full lotus pod.
Looking at the lotus vine with its petals and lotus pods collected, Lin Shilu felt a little regretful. It would be great if he could take it back to his family.
Unfortunately, the colorful golden lotus has extremely high requirements for the growing environment and cannot be transplanted at all, so the lotus vines can only be left alone.
Lin Shilu turned around and immediately walked towards the body of the green-spotted poisonous python, collecting the scales that fell along the way.
These scales are good things, and they are of a higher grade than the scales of the Green Void Snake. Lin Tianming's blue scale shield is seriously damaged, but he can collect some scales to repair his defensive magic weapon.
Soon, he collected a lot of scales, enough to repair the blue scale shield.
Then he raised his hand and waved the spirit sword in his hand, cutting off the part that could be used for weapon training, and then cut the body of the green-spotted poisonous python into small pieces and collected them.
In less than half a quarter of an hour, the body of the demon snake on the ground had disappeared, and the body of the gray-robed monk was burned to ashes by the fireball.
Lin Shilu briefly processed the battlefield and erased a large number of traces.
After cleaning up the battlefield, Lin Shilu searched inside and around the pool, but unfortunately he didn't find any more treasures.
After turning around in a circle, Lin Shilu returned to where he was.
After a short period of recovery, Lin Tianming finally regained some spiritual power. The injuries on his body also stopped bleeding, and he could basically move around freely.
The two of them gathered together. Lin Shilu looked at the calm pool and suddenly said:
"Tianming, this place is extremely dangerous. We must leave immediately and find a place to rest. .”
Lin Tianming nodded, the two discussed a few words with each other, then chose a direction and left quickly.
Half a day later.
The two finally walked out of the swamp and entered a beautiful valley.
Lin Shilu's consciousness was wide open and he searched the surroundings but found no abnormalities.
After confirming the safety, the two immediately found a location and opened a simple cave.
He raised his hand to cast a few illusions, and then took out a set of first-order formation flags and arranged them around the cave.
After doing this, he felt a little more at ease, and the two of them walked in immediately.
Sitting in the cave, Lin Shilu took out the lotus pods of the seven-colored golden lotus. A special fragrance came out and soon filled the entire cave.
Seeing this thing, Lin Tianming showed a salivating expression.
Lin Shilu chuckled, then carefully took out a lotus seed and handed it to Lin Tianming.
"The time to open the secret realm is limited. We can't delay it now. The effect of this lotus seed is very good. It can not only quickly restore spiritual power, but also speed up the recovery of injuries. More importantly, it can help your physical body break through."
He talked about many effects in one breath, Then he ordered:
"Time is urgent, use this object to recover your injuries, and improve your physical strength by the way. Then bring your blue scale shield, I will repair it for you."
Lin Tianming nodded, his face extremely excited.
With Lin Shilu's help, the damaged Green Scale Shield can finally be used again. Otherwise, it would be too dangerous in this dangerous secret realm.
After taking the lotus seeds, he handed his blue scale shield to Lin Shilu, then immediately sat on the ground, circulated the technique for a long time, and began to adjust his state.
Seeing this situation, Lin Shilu was not idle either.
He sat on the ground, adjusted his condition, took out a large number of green-spotted poisonous python scales and the materials required for weapon refining from the storage bag, and began to repair the green-scaled shield for Lin Tianming.
After half an hour, Lin Tianming felt that his condition had reached its peak.
He looked at the crystal clear lotus seeds in his hand and swallowed them in one gulp without hesitation.
After entering the lotus seed, a powerful energy burst out, like a ball of fire, extremely domineering.
At this time, Lin Tianming's face turned red, and violent energy coursed through his meridians.
He did not dare to delay, and quickly started to refine the technique.
Half a moment passed, and although the refined energy became gentler, it was still overbearing.
He carefully controlled this energy, flowing along the seven meridians and eight meridians, and finally gathered in Qi Hai Dantian.
However, wherever this energy passed, a strange feeling came to my mind, as if I was floating on the top of a cloud, feeling extremely comfortable.
Not only that, as more and more energy was refined, the wounds on his body began to feel numb. The wounds healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and scabs soon formed. .
Seeing this situation, Lin Tianming was overjoyed. He did not expect that the effect of the lotus seeds was unexpectedly powerful.
After regaining his consciousness, he devoted all his energy to refining the energy of the lotus seeds, further recovering his injuries, and tempering his physical body.
"Crackling..."
The sound came, and after the powerful energy transformation in the lotus seeds, his internal organs, as well as the skin meridians, were all effectively strengthened.
Time passed quietly, and three days passed.
In the simple cave, Lin Tianming breathed steadily, and when he opened and closed, there were bursts of sounds coming from his body at intervals.
After a burst of sound, he opened his closed eyes, and a flash of light flashed.
At this time, the lotus seeds of the colorful golden lotus have been completely refined.
Feeling the spiritual power flowing rapidly throughout his body, as well as the further strengthened organs and meridians in his body, Lin Tianming clenched his fists and showed a cheerful smile
In three days, most of his injuries recovered, and his strength was as good as Before you start, you are only strong, not weak.
Lin Tianming stood up and twisted his slightly stiff body, then looked at Lin Shilu.
At this time, he was busy repairing his blue scale shield. It was obvious that he had reached a critical moment.
I saw the magic formula flashing in his hand, and inscriptions came out one after another, disappeared after entering the surface of the blue scale shield.
Half a quarter of an hour later, a harsh sound came, and the aura on the green scale shield glowed, and then returned to normal.
He waved one hand, and the green scale shield quickly shrank and was caught in his hand.
After Lin Shilu looked at it carefully, he showed a satisfied look.
A lot of green-spotted poisonous python scales have been added. Although the defensive performance of this green-scaled shield is slightly worse than before, it can still reach about 89%, which is already very difficult.
If time and materials were not limited, it would be easy for the Green Scale Shield to return to its full glory, or even surpass it before. After all, the scales of this demonic snake are second-order late-stage demonic beasts. Compared with the previous ones, I got a lot stronger in the early to middle school years.
"Tianming, give it a try."
Lin Shilu chuckled and threw the blue scale shield in his hand to Lin Tianming.
Lin Tianming took the green scale shield, stamped it with magic skills, and then injected a large amount of spiritual power, and the palm-sized shield suddenly swelled.
After a moment, he withdrew his shield and showed a satisfied expression.
"How is it? Are you satisfied?" Lin Shilu asked with a smile.
"Grandpa Fifteen, you were able to restore 80% to 90% of the defense power of this shield in such a short period of time, which is beyond my expectation."
"Well, that's true."
Lin Shilu chuckled, then took out the gray-robed man's storage bag and handed it to Lin Tianming, indicating to him to open it and check the harvest of this battle.
Lin Tianming naturally liked the matter of counting and receiving the goods. He took the storage bag and easily erased the remaining consciousness on it.
He reached out his consciousness, took out the items from the storage bag one by one, and placed them in front of the two of them.
At this time, the two of them looked at the treasures all over the floor and looked extremely excited.
The gray-robed monk's net worth can be said to be extremely rich. After all, he is an eighth-level casual cultivator. After practicing for nearly a hundred years, he can reach this level. He has done countless things that are harmful to nature, killing people and selling goods.
In his storage bag, he got more than 30,000 spiritual stones, a third-level elixir, dozens of second-level elixirs, and a complete variety of second-level elixirs. The total number is There are more than twenty pills, almost all used for daily practice and fighting.
In addition, there are also various amounts of weapon refining materials and monster beast corpses, which are obviously obtained by him from hunting all year round, or from other monks.
It is a pity that I did not find any high-level exercises or high-level experiences. I only got two yellow-level exercises and the experience of a second-level talisman maker. They are all ordinary things. For today's people As far as the Lin family is concerned, it is not very useful. As for the magic weapons, they are his weird dark green gourd and blood evil knife.
And the defensive tortoise-shell magical weapon was in dilapidated condition, almost reduced to scrap, and other means of defending against enemies, such as talismans and the like, had long been consumed.
But even so, the harvest from this battle is still beyond imagination. Putting aside the magical weapons and skills, the treasures obtained are at least more than 60,000 to 70,000 spiritual stones.
Looking at the treasures all over the floor, Lin Shilu said with an excited smile:
"Tianming, let's divide these two magical weapons and spiritual stones, and also divide the elixirs together. For other things we need, we choose some that are useful to us and hand over the rest to the family. What do you think?”
Lin Tianming naturally had no objection. The two of them smiled knowingly and started the distribution.
In just one cup of tea, Lin Tianming and the two of them completed their distribution and each put the treasures into their own storage bags.
Lin Tianming got the weird gourd, and also received 10,000 spiritual stones, and all the elixirs were given to Lin Shilu. After all, he was an alchemist himself, so these elixirs were dispensable.
Other than that, what he cares most about is the colorful golden lotus. The effect of this thing is really great. One lotus seed can greatly increase the strength of his physical body. If they are all refined, it will definitely become more powerful. Strong.
Lin Shilu knew that he had both physical and mental health, so he only wanted one petal and one lotus seed, and gave him the rest.
Among the remaining treasures, Lin Tianming took more than a dozen uncommon elixirs and the inner elixir of the green-spotted poisonous python, while Lin Shilu took a few precious spiritual materials and some monster materials.
The distribution between the two was completed, and each received a large amount of treasures.
Lin Shilu smiled knowingly, then changed the topic and talked about his next plan.
"Tianming, it has been more than seven days since we entered the secret realm, and a quarter of the time has passed. Where should we go next? What do you think about this?"
Lin Tianming thought for a while, Then he opened his mouth and said:
"We got the colorful golden lotus and so many treasures. This trip has been full of rewards. It would be safest if we stay here and wait until the secret realm is closed."
"But this secret realm is full of opportunities. And the opportunity is rare, wouldn’t it be a pity if we waste our time like this?”
Hearing this, Lin Shilu’s eyes flashed. With inspiration, he nodded and said:
"I also think about it this way. Although we have gained a lot, these things alone are not enough to bring the family to a higher level."
"More importantly, there is still plenty of time. If we give up this opportunity, I don't know if we will be able to enter the secret realm again in the year of the monkey."
Lin Tianming nodded, Lin Shilu's idea coincided with his.
In the remaining time, as long as they are careful and do not provoke those powerful disciples, and when they meet ordinary late-stage foundation-building monks, their lives will not be in danger if the two of them join forces.
Thinking of this, Lin Tianming immediately discussed the next specific plan with Lin Shilu.
Half a quarter of an hour later, the two left the simple cave and appeared in the valley.
At this time, the sun was shining brightly and the beautiful valley was quite quiet.
Lin Shilu looked at the scorching sun above his head, chose a direction, and then entered the dense forest.
Lin Tianming quickly stepped up to keep up, and the two disappeared from the spot.
Time passed slowly, and a few days passed.
At this time, the two came to a huge dense forest. They stayed on a tree crown, looking at the endless dense forest in the distance and thinking.
The two traveled for several days, but still did not get out of this dense forest. Looking at the endless jungle in front of them, Lin Tianming felt helpless.
For several days, they hardly stopped, searching for treasures during the day and looking for a place to rest at night, basically not wasting a single moment of time.
On the way, I met several casual cultivators, and both parties wisely avoided each other, but no unnecessary conflicts occurred.
Lin Tianming and his two men were particularly careful. They encountered two second-level monsters and were killed by them.
After such hard work, the two received quite a good harvest. They obtained dozens of second-level elixirs, most of which were rare varieties.
At this time, loud noises came from a valley ahead, and the two of them noticed it immediately.
"Tianming, there is movement ahead, it seems that someone is fighting."
Hearing Lin Shilu's reminder, Lin Tianming nodded and asked doubtfully:
"Fifteenth Grandpa, what are we going to do next? What should I do? "
Lin Shilu frowned, feeling a little confused. He still didn't know the situation yet, and there might be some danger in participating rashly.
However, before I had time to think too much, the movement ahead was getting louder and louder, and it was obviously moving quickly.
Lin Tianming and his two men turned around and hid in the bushes not far away, then stared ahead warily.
After a while, a man in black was seen rushing towards their location, looking quite panicked.
Until the person got closer and closer, the two of them saw clearly the appearance of this person. It was actually the Long Hai they saw at the entrance to the secret realm.
Long Hai seemed to have discovered the two of them one step ahead. He came to the front of the bush without any scruples and looked at the thing chasing him from hundreds of feet away.
At this moment, a group of dragon-eye beasts about a dozen feet in size chased after them. When they saw Long Hai no longer running away, they stopped and stared at him with bared teeth, as if they were a little afraid.
Long Hai looked solemn, turned his head and looked at the bushes and said:
"You two Taoists don't need to hide. Since I'm here, I naturally discovered you in advance."
Hearing this After saying that, the expressions of Lin Tianming and Lin Tianming changed, and they walked out of the bushes helplessly, and then stared at Long Hai and the Dragon Eye Beast on the opposite side with vigilance.
The two of them kept a distance from Long Hai and were always ready to take action.
"What do you mean, Fellow Daoist Long? We are just passing by here. We have no enmity with you and have no interest in getting involved in your affairs." Lin Shilu said coldly.
After hearing this, Long Hai looked calm, stared at the two of them and smiled bitterly:
"Now it's not that you can't participate if you don't want to. This dragon-eye beast is not low in strength. It has already set its sights on us. If we don't fight back, It’s not easy for them to escape intact.”
Lin Tianming’s expressions changed, and they looked at the dragon-eye beast group opposite, feeling helpless.
What Long Hai said is true. The strength of this group of dragon-eye beasts can be said to be extremely powerful. There are fifteen second-order dragon-eye beasts, including two in the late stage, and the rest are in the middle and early stages.
As for the first level, there are nearly a hundred of them. Although the strength of the first level is not much of a threat to them, such a large number is still very powerful.
And such a powerful dragon-eye beast group is simply terrifying.
More importantly, the Dragon Eye Beast is an ancient strange beast. Its attack power is not strong, but its speed is extremely fast. Even the Dragon Eye Beast in the early stage of the second level has an escape speed that is faster than that of the Dragon Eye Beast in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment. The monks are still fast, and it is obviously difficult to escape from their hands.
No wonder even a prestigious casual cultivator like Long Hai fled. Lin Tianming murmured in his heart.
Knowing the strength of these dragon-eyed beasts, Lin Shilu looked unhappy and said to Long Hai:
"Fellow Daoist Dragon, you are causing trouble to the east and implicating us innocently, shouldn't you? Give us an explanation?”
"Explanation?"
Long Hai chuckled, and then said:
"There are many treasures in the lair of this group of dragon-eyed beasts, including white jade grass. What do you think of this?"
When they heard about the white jade grass, Lin Tianming and his wife were shocked.
White jade grass is the main medicine for refining the foundation building pill. Apart from the golden pill force, it is almost impossible to find it in the world of immortality. It can only appear in such secret realms.
What the Lin family currently lacks is White Jade Grass. If they can get some White Jade Grass to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill, the family's heritage will reach a new level.
Thinking of this, Lin Shilu was very clear-headed. How could he easily believe what outsiders said casually.
Seeing the expressions on the two people's faces, Long Hai continued:
"Although these dragon-eyed beasts are powerful, we are not without the power to fight if we join forces. Why don't we join forces to kill them and then divide up the treasures inside?
Lin Tianming and Lin Tianming didn't believe what they said, so they communicated in private.
"Tianming, do you think what this person said is true or false?"
Seeing Lin Shilu ask, Lin Tianming replied through a message:
"Right now, whether it's true or not, we have no choice. There is no room left. This person has profound cultivation. If he leaves directly, it will not be easy for us to escape intact. Although cooperating with him is tantamount to seeking the skin of a tiger, But it’s better than us dealing with the Dragon Eye Beast alone.”
Hearing Lin Tianming’s message, Lin Shilu nodded secretly, and then asked:
“Fellow Taoist Dragon, what you say is unfounded. If there is a white jade grass, I can go there. If there is no such thing, I will never take the risk."
Long Hai seemed to have anticipated their worries. He waved his sleeves and a foot-high, snow-white elixir suddenly appeared in his hand.
Seeing this thing, there was no doubt that it was genuine white jade grass, Lin Tianming and his two breaths became rapid.
Long Hai collected the white jade grass and then asked:
"How about it? Have you two fellow Taoists thought it through?"
Lin Shilu nodded and made up his mind. With determination, he replied: "Fellow Daoist Dragon, the ugly words are ahead. If we succeed, how should we distribute the spoils?"
When Long Hai heard Lin Shilu's words and learned that they were interested in cooperating, he immediately said with a smile:
"I found this thing, and I am stronger than you. Naturally, I want to take the lion's share. I will take 70% of the treasure. You guys 30%.”
As soon as Long Hai’s distribution plan came out, Lin Shilu immediately refuted it.
"What Fellow Daoist Long said is wrong. Fellow Daoist Long found that it is true, but 70% is too much. With the two of us working hard, we have to occupy 50%."
< br>Before he finished speaking, Long Hai's expression changed, but he also had some scruples. If Lin Tianming really didn't intend to cooperate, he alone would never be able to escape unscathed.
Thinking of this, his attitude softened a lot, and then he started bargaining.
Soon, the two reached an agreement, Long Hai got 60% and they got 40%.
For this distribution plan, Lin Tianming and the two are quite satisfied. Judging from the current situation, any party facing the Dragon Eye Beast alone will be in trouble.
Only by cooperating with each other can we achieve greater results and it is also the most beneficial.
Long Hai and Lin Shilu laughed, the atmosphere gradually relaxed, and then looked at the group of dragon-eye beasts ahead.
They did not take the initiative, and the dragon-eye beast did not dare to take the initiative to attack. The two sides were in a stalemate, and the war was about to break out.
