Chapter 45 A Blessing in Misfortune
Lin Tian stared at the red-faced ghost opposite, took a deep breath, held the hilt of the sword with both hands, and stared fixedly ahead.
"Su Shu, step back."
Lin Tian whispered.
Su Shu froze for a moment, but quickly moved into action, taking a few big steps back.
"Jie!"
On the opposite side, the red-faced ghost roared, his demon eyes were blood red, and he rushed forward with a hostile face.
"call!"
Lin Tian stared closely at the front, and after exhaling a turbid breath, the long sword in his hand rotated and pressed down, and the Sword of Shocking Wind was cast out again at the fastest speed, and the dense sword lights pressed on the red-faced ghost from all directions.
The red-faced ghost growled and swung its claws quickly.
"Hey!"
"Hey!"
"Hey!"
Only crisp sounds could be heard, and in the blink of an eye, Lin Tian's Sword of Shocking Wind was completely shattered.
However, Lin Tian's expression did not change. He raised his right hand, and the long sword in his hand came out, turning into a ray of light, and piercing through to the red-faced ghost. Afterwards, he squatted down slightly, and rushed towards the red-faced ghost with bare hands.
"Lin Tian, what are you doing?! Come back!"
Su Shu's face changed drastically.
Rushing towards the red-faced ghost with bare hands, isn't that courting death!
Lin Tian's face was indifferent and serene, his eyes seemed to be intertwined with lightning, and he used the Liangyi steps to the limit, as fast as a fleeting shadow.
"clang!"
A crisp sound came out, and the long sword that Lin Tian threw first was knocked away by the claw of the red-faced ghost.
However, at this time, Lin Tian had already arrived in front of the red-faced ghost.
At this moment, Lin Tian had no sword in his hand, but he cut it out resolutely.
"Sword of Lightning!"
He spat out four large characters.
Although there was no sword in his hand, at this moment, it seemed that a real lightning sword appeared in his right hand. It was astonishingly fast and extremely strong. The sharp and domineering sword intent made the whole space tremble.
"call out!"
Like a flash of wisdom, Lin Tian and the red-faced ghost passed by.
In an instant, there was a dead silence all around.
The red-faced ghost trembled, opened its mouth to whine, and its blood-colored eyes quickly dimmed. Immediately, in Su Shu's widened eyes, the red-faced ghost fell to the side with a bang, and bright red blood slowly overflowed from the gap between the claws protecting his throat.
"died?!"
Su Shu was shocked, her beautiful eyes were full of incredible expressions.
She remembered that just now Lin Tian didn't have a sword in his hand, but he cut out the Sword of Shocking Wind!
Moreover, the red-faced ghost was beheaded with one sword!
"Lin Tian, how are you?"
Seeing Lin Tian whose back was still facing her, Su Shu couldn't help shouting.
Lin Tian turned around and smiled at Su Shu: "I'm fine, very fine."
He was reminiscing the feeling of the sword just now.
"You bastard, just now you cut out the Shocking Wind Sword Jue with your bare hands? Moreover, it seems to be stronger than when holding the sword. How did you do it?! It's too monstrous!"
Su Shu's eyes widened.
Lin Tian chuckled: "Well, it's a secret."
More than half a month ago, when he practiced the formation control technique for the first time, he discovered a secret. When there was no weapon in hand, through the sword pattern in the heart of his right hand, the sword energy he slashed would be much stronger than when he had a sword in his hand, so , Just now he directly threw the long sword in his hand at the red-faced ghost, and then cut out the lightning sword with his bare hands.
The result was unbiased, the same as in his original experiment.
Without a sword in his hand, the lightning sword he cut out was even more powerful.
faster!
More accurate!
stronger!
"This move is really overbearing."
Gently shook his right hand, recalling the blow just now, Lin Tian felt refreshed for a while.
Su Shu stared at her beautiful eyes and grinned, "It's a secret again?!"
"Ahem."
Lin Tian coughed dryly and quickly looked away.
However, at this moment, under the opposite vine, he suddenly saw a white light.
"what is that?"
Lin Tian was puzzled.
Slowly approaching the opposite side, Lin Tian came to the vines, peeled off the surface vines, and was shocked.
"What's wrong?"
Su Shu leaned over curiously,
Suddenly took a step back in fright.
I saw dense white bones under the vines, and I don't know how long it has been sunken, and there is a faint glow in the dark nest.
Lin Tian was a little surprised, how could there be so many bones here? And it seems that these bones belong to humans. He thought for a while, and suddenly understood: "It should be the Wufu disciple who was captured by the red-faced ghost before."
Su Shu was moved, nodded and said: "That's right, it should be like this."
There are so many white bones under the vines that it makes one's scalp tingle, but at this moment, Lin Tian's eyes light up.
Pulling apart a piece of bone, he saw many black things the size of a baby's fist.
"This is?!"
Su Shu stared.
Lin Tian took out a black object and wiped off the long-accumulated sand and dust on it. Suddenly, a faint halo flashed, lingering with a little spiritual fluctuation.
"It's a beast core!"
Lin Tiandao.
Staring at the bottom, Lin Tian moved his left and right hands together, and quickly cleared away the surrounding vines and some white bones. Suddenly, many similar black things appeared below. After a rough scan, there were about 500 pieces.
These are all beast cores!
"Oh my God!"
Su Shu couldn't help exclaiming.
Lin Tian said: "The owners of these bones should be Wufu disciples who entered Qingfeng Ridge in front of them. When these people were honed in Qingfeng Ridge, they would inevitably kill many monsters and collect a lot of beast cores. , They were captured here by the red-faced ghosts, the humans died, but the beast core was preserved."
Su Shu nodded. This analysis makes sense.
The two looked at each other and couldn't help showing joy.
More than 500 beast cores, this number is really amazing, and among the more than 500 beast cores, most of them are second-level beast cores, and there are many third-level beast cores. During the seven-day trial, they had to rest, and it was impossible to hunt and kill monsters all the time. Therefore, it was really difficult to collect more than 500 beast cores within seven days.
But now...
"It was a blessing in disguise."
Lin Tian smiled.
Su Shu's beautiful eyes brightened: "If you do this calculation, you've made a lot of money."
Lin Tian nodded and said, "Well, thanks to your bait."
"What did you say!"
Su Shu glared at him.
Lin Tian laughed, didn't say anything, and started sorting out the animal core under the bones. Beside, Su Shu was not idle, and helped Lin Tian clean up together. It was not until three hours later that the two cleaned up all the beast cores.
"A total of 589 beast cores, including 63 first-level beast cores, 341 second-level beast cores, and 185 third-level beast cores."
Lin Tiandao.
He had prepared five cloth bags, and at this moment, three of them were fully filled.
"I made it, I made it!" Su Shu looked like a money fan, her eyes narrowed into a crescent shape, and her face was full of happiness: "It's only one day, and the remaining six days, we are idle and sleeping. No problem."
"Us? Sleep? Su Shu, don't tempt me."
Lin Tian coughed dryly.
Su Shu was stunned for a moment, then kicked Lin Tian hard, and said with a blushing face, "Shameless! Smelly rascal!"
Lin Tian laughed, stood up and walked to the other side, pulled out the long sword stuck in the ground, swept it slightly, and found that there were a few more gaps on the blade, which made him sigh secretly, the claws of the red-faced ghost Really tough enough. He walked to the corpse of the red-faced ghost, cut open its head, and took out a fist-sized beast core. The beast core was very radiant, like a night pearl, illuminating the surroundings a lot.
"As expected of a third-level peak monster comparable to the ninth level of body training, even the beast core is so domineering."
Lin Tian was surprised.
Su Shu was also a little surprised, her big eyes blinked.
"Speaking of which, you are only at the sixth level of body training, and you actually killed a third-level monster, the red-faced ghost, which is comparable to the ninth level of body training. You are simply a monster!"
Su Shu stared at Lin Tiandao.
Lin Tian smiled. It was just a coincidence. Although the red-faced ghost is comparable to the ninth level of body training, it is not of the same order of magnitude as the real ninth level of body training. After all, the opponent does not have the wisdom of a human warrior.
"How about going out first?"
Lin Tian asked.
Su Shu nodded quickly: "Of course I have to go out, go right away, I don't want to stay here."
The red-faced ghost's lair was very dark, and a lot of bones had been pulled out from under the vines. For a while, there was a decaying smell in the air, which made people very uncomfortable.
Su Shu stood up and walked out of the cave first.
Lin Tian followed behind, and the two quickly walked out of the cave.
At this moment, the sky outside had already dimmed, and night had enveloped the earth, only a little light from the stars fell down, covering Qingfeng Ridge with a layer of silver light.
"What are you doing now? Just go back to the Martial House directly."
Su Shu said.
Although the Outer Court Ranking Trial stipulates seven days, that is only the maximum period. In fact, during these seven days, the Outer Palace disciples who enter Qingfeng Ridge can leave Qingfeng Ridge at any time. Of course, once they leave in the middle, That means that this person's ranking trial is over, and the result will be calculated based on the beast cores collected when he walked out.
Now, with the addition of the beast cores collected before, she and Lin Tian have a total of more than 600 beast cores, more than 600 beast cores, which is quite a number, enough for the two of them to be ranked among the top ten disciples of the Outer Palace at the same time .
"This senior sister doesn't have much ambition, as long as the old man Mu is satisfied, let's go and go back home."
Su Shu said happily.
Lin Tian was speechless, pulled Su Shu back and said, "It's only a day. By ourselves, can we collect 600 beast cores? You are stupid as a mentor of the Wufu. If we go back now, if we are asked, what should we do?" how to explain?"
Su Shu was taken aback for a moment, and then suddenly realized: "Yes! Why didn't I think of this!" After a pause, she looked at Lin Tian again, and said, "Then tell me, what are we doing now?"
Lin Tian thought for a while, and said: "Find a place to rest for a while, and then continue to hunt monsters and collect beast cores. Since they have all come in, you must sharpen them. In addition, it is not a bad thing to collect more beast cores. "
The next day, in an old forest in Qingfeng Ridge, an astonishing sword qi whistled, accompanied by a wail, a monster shaped like a rhinoceros was pierced through its throat with a sword, and fell down in a pool of blood with a bang.
"The iron tail rhinoceros, a third-level monster, is comparable to the seventh level of body training, but it was killed by a single sword. This becomes... an evildoer!"
Not far away, Su Shu's eyes widened.
