Asking About Longevity Chapter 232

 Chapter 232 Hunting (fifth update)

The goat demon's fur was burnt black and bleeding, and it fell on the mountain road.

The monster hunter did not approach easily. Yu Chengyi glanced at the monster, then looked at Mo Shan, giving him a questioning look.

Mo Shan frowned slightly and shook his head slightly, which meant that the monster was pretending to die.

So everyone spread out, surrounded the monster, and waited patiently.

 Different monsters have different ways of cheating death, and monster hunters naturally have different ways of dealing with them.

Monsters like the red-eyed sheep demon cannot be approached rashly after they die.

Whoever gets close first will be attacked by it before it dies, which is extremely dangerous. Those who were unlucky would be buried directly in the demon's belly.

If they get close together, they will be easily affected by its demonic power.

The demonic beasts in the late first-level are not only full of blood, but also have very strong demonic power, and the talents they use to exert their demonic power are even more difficult.

If you are injured by its demonic power, you will be in big trouble.

Monster hunters also lack the means of long-range attacks. Although they have bows and arrows, they are not very powerful. They can detonate the spirit stones in the formation, but they are useless for dealing with monsters.

So for the sake of safety, the demon hunters did not act rashly.

 The goat demon lay motionless on the ground, and the demon hunters were also on alert, waiting patiently.

The monster is on the verge of death, its blood is flowing out bit by bit, and its breath is weakening bit by bit. As long as you are patient, it will definitely be the monster that cannot bear it in the end.

Mo Hua also hid behind the stone and watched, the demonic power of the monster slowly flowing in his consciousness.

 It looks like an undead demonic beast is accumulating demonic power, but also like a dead demonic beast whose demonic power is gradually losing.

Even the ink painting cannot tell whether this monster is dead or not.

"It seems that I don't have enough experience. Even if my spiritual sense can see the flow of demonic power, I can't distinguish the life and death of the demonic beast."

His father Mo Shan didn't even use his spiritual consciousness. He just took a look and could tell based on experience that the monster was cheating its death.

 A monk's experience is also a type of monk's ability.

Mo Hua said silently in his heart.

The monster is still pretending to be dead and the monster hunter is still waiting, but Mo Hua is too lazy to wait.

 They don't have the means to attack from a distance, but Mo Hua does.

So Mo Hua got lucky and cast the fireball technique.

As soon as the thought started, the spiritual power was already gathered in the fingers and pointed forward. The fireball technique was condensed and roared out, flying towards the sheep demon lying on the ground pretending to die.

The demon hunters were all a little surprised, but they were a little relieved when they saw that it was Mo Hua who cast the spell.

The fireball technique exploded on the goat demon, but the goat demon didn't move at all.

 “You are obviously a sheep, but you still want to pretend to be a bastard?”

Mo Hua said curiously, and then pointed his fingers together again, and a fireball flew out again, hitting the sheep demon again.

The sheep demon finally couldn't bear it any longer. He roared and stood up. His eyes were red and ferocious as he stared at the ink painting.

Yu Chengyi said coldly: "Kill!"

The demon hunter slashed at the sheep demon with his sword.

The red-eyed sheep demon, which was already at the end of its battle, was even more unable to hold on. Its eyes were blood red, its demonic power was operating to the extreme, and its whole body was surging with blood.

Seeing this, Yu Chengyi immediately said: "Disperse!"

 A group of demon hunters were also prepared and retreated one after another.

 At the same time that the demon hunter evacuated, a burst of blood mist erupted from the red-eyed goat demon.

 Mo Hua heard from Mo Shan that the red-eyed sheep demon will use its demon power to activate its talent and burst into blood mist when it is about to die or in a critical moment.

If the demon hunter is in the blood mist, his eyes will be infected by the blood mist, his vision will be blood red, he will be unable to see, and his mind will also be affected by the blood mist.

 In this case, if there is no companion to save you, you will basically die.

"Is this the blood mist..."

Mo Hua was surprised. The late-stage first-grade monsters were indeed more dangerous than he thought.

 Fortunately, although the blood mist was troublesome, it did not last long and dissipated quickly.

The sheep demon that has exhausted its demonic power has really become a lamb to be slaughtered. The demon hunters quickly killed the red-eyed goat demon. As the goat demon collapsed to the ground again, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Mo Hua scanned the sheep demon again with his spiritual consciousness.

Discovered that the demonic power of the truly dead sheep demon flows more slowly and stagnantly, and its color is also gradually fading.

 Mo Hua remembered this difference in his mind, so that he would have a basis for distinguishing whether the monster was cheating to death in the future.

 But he was not familiar with late-stage first-grade monsters, so just to be on the safe side, he confirmed with his father:

 “Did you die?”

Mo Shan glanced at the monster again, nodded and said, "It's gone."

Mo Hua then ran out from behind the stone, walked up to the sheep demon, pointed at the sheep demon's heart veins and said:

 “Dad, help me open an opening here.”

Mo Shan slashed down, creating a half-finger-long gap, and demon blood flowed out from the gap.

Mo Hua quickly took out the jade bottle, took out the demon blood, and at the same time used the blood-draining technique to absorb the demon blood from other meridians of the demon beast.

 After collecting the demon blood, the demon hunters skinned and deboned the demon beasts, packed everything up, and then retreated to the camp.

There are always unknown dangers in the mountains, but staying in the camp is much safer.

The camp in the inner mountain is similar to that in the outer mountain, but it is more spacious and more secluded, and the formation on the stone gate is better.

But this formation is relatively crude in Mo Hua's eyes.

He thought it was awkward, so he used the newly drawn demon blood to mix the spiritual ink again, and drew a first-grade earth and stone array with his own hands, which made it look more pleasing to the eye.

 Everyone ate something and rested for a while in the camp.

Yu Chengyi held the compass with the earth fire array on it, looked left and right, and couldn't help but say:

 “This thing is good!”

 It is very powerful and can be used many times. The first-level formation is painted on it.

 The first-grade formation...

From now on, their demon hunters can use first-level formations to hunt demon beasts.

 This has never happened before.

 Even a few years ago, he wouldn't have dared to think about it.

Yu Chengyi sighed a little, and then asked: "How many times can this be used?"

Mo Hua ate meat in his mouth, thought about it, and said, "Seven or eight times."

“This array medium is not very good. It is mixed with fine iron, so it is a little stronger. After using it seven or eight times, it can no longer bear the spiritual power of the explosion of the earth fire array.” Mo Hua continued.

 “Will it be useless after that?” Yu Chengyi felt a little pity.

“You can recycle the waste, melt it with Master Chen, and then refine it again,” Mo Hua said.

 This is the benefit of having a refiner. Sometimes, you can refine something according to your own ideas.

"That's good."

Yu Chengyi nodded, holding the compass of the Earth Fire Formation in his hand, the more he looked at it, the more he liked it.

 With this thing in the future, it will be much easier for them to hunt monsters. Most importantly, reducing risks also reduces casualties.

 It is not easy for a monster hunter to live a good life.

Who doesn't want to enter the mountains steadily and return safely?

“It's just this compass, it's a bit ugly...” Yu Chengyi said honestly.

Although he likes the function very much, it is indeed a bit ugly...

Mo Hua scratched his head, he couldn't help it, it was a temporary refinement.

Logically speaking, general spiritual weapons will have matching formations, and general formations will also have corresponding standard spiritual weapons.

For example, the sword formation is painted on the sword, the knife formation is painted on the sword, and the Qingxin formation is painted on the Qingxin hairpin.

But Mo Hua couldn't find the spiritual weapon corresponding to the Earth Fire Array. He asked Master Chen and he didn't know, so he could only make a temporary iron compass based on his Sinan Compass and use it as an array matchmaker.

Although it is a bit ugly, Yu Chengyi still regards the compass of the Earth Fire Formation as a treasure.
