Chapter 443 Sacrifice Array
By the time the lionesses reacted, purple light rays had already been shooting towards them.

After a burst of shrill screams, five second-level monsters fell to the ground and died, leaving only a few little lions.

They immediately fled in all directions. Lin Changqing thought about it and decided to let them live, because two of them were probably born not long ago.

It can barely be considered to be in the early stage of the first stage, and can be captured and cultivated as a spirit pet, but to be honest.

Lin Changqing doesn't think highly of them now. If he takes them back to the inner space and gives them to Xu Meiniang, Zhao Liyu and others, he is afraid that too many resources will be consumed in their training!
So he thought about it and decided to just give up and let them fend for themselves. He would consider leaving them to them when he found something more suitable in the future!
He used flying swords to finish off all the second-level monsters, then cut open their bellies to find the monster cores, and put away the rest.

He planned to deal with it when he had rest at night. The most important thing now was to not waste too much time and continue on his journey.

In fact, he had also considered getting Lu Youqiang and Lu Youguang out and letting them use wind escape techniques to carry him on the journey, which would also save his mana.

But after thinking about it, I decided to forget it. There's no need to be so high-profile, and the situation is not that urgent.

After wandering around for a while and finding no trace of any spiritual creatures, he left the territory of the Red-Armored Swift Lion Family.

This secret realm is mainly composed of mountains and hills, so sometimes, finding spiritual objects requires some luck.

But Lin Changqing didn't have so much time to waste here, so he had to give up and continue heading southeast.

Another two or three hours passed. Lin Changqing hunted and killed three second-order monsters along the way. After that, it was already dark.

He quickly found a relatively secluded place, set up the small Five Elements maze formation, and then released all the first- and second-level purple crystal scorpions.

He arranged a three-layer three-dimensional defense, summoned Chuyi down, fed him monster meat and soul-nourishing pills, and then sent him back to the soul-nourishing bracelet to rest.

It is needed during the day, and it is also tiring to fly at high altitudes for a long time, so it must be allowed to rest well at night.

Then he released all the corpses of the second-level monsters hunted today, and began to bleed them, skin them, and extract their tendons, separating all the usable spiritual materials from their bodies.

The tendons, bones, and skin of the second-level monsters can all be used to refine spiritual weapons. Whether I use them to exchange for spiritual stones or give them to Hu Yunna for training, they are both very good choices.

Moreover, I had a good harvest today. I didn't go specifically to hunt second-level monsters, but I got ten second-level monster pills as long as I encountered that kind of sacrificial formation.

By sacrificing these ten demon pills, you can exchange them for the escape mark, which means you have completed the first task and prepared a way out.

How far you can go in the secret realm depends on your own abilities and means!
After finishing the work of separating the monster's spiritual materials, I put the things away in different categories.

Lin Changqing took out the spoils of war from killing the Ghost Control Sect monks today, including three storage bags and some miscellaneous items.

These odds and ends were found on the monk. To be honest, he didn't see what use they had, but he just took them since it would be a waste.

It didn't take too much time to refine the three storage bags, and they were completed successfully soon.

The three storage bags were divided into different categories, containing different types of things. One of them contained five monsters, and Lin Changqing recognized them as ground rhinos.

Moreover, the two adults and three children should be a family. Obviously, they should be the first group of monsters hunted by the Ghost Control Sect monk after entering the secret realm.

However, Lin Changqing did not find any wounds on them. He only saw two wounds on the abdomens of two second-level ground-armored rhinos where the demon pills were taken. The others were very complete. It is worth mentioning that all the demon beasts had a shriveled feeling. After Lin Changqing checked.

I found that all the blood on their bodies had disappeared, and I started to speculate.

After those ghosts devoured the souls of the monsters, did they even eat their blood?

Although he was not particularly familiar with the methods of the Ghost Control Sect, he still felt chilled by this strange method.

It took some more time to skin and remove the tendons of the five ground rhinos, two large and three small.

Then he put them into different categories and looked at the second storage bag. He couldn't understand this storage bag because it was full of bottles and jars.

After Lin Changqing took out a few and opened them, he found that a lot of them were blood of unknown origin. He felt a chill in his heart and couldn't help but wonder if these things were specially used to feed ghosts!

I felt very uncomfortable, so I put them all back the way they were, except for the last storage bag, which was relatively normal.

These were all common things for cultivators. Lin Changqing poured out everything inside.

It is obvious that these should have been sorted. There is not a single low-grade spirit stone. Instead, there are about three hundred medium-grade spirit stones.

There are more than a dozen bottles of pills, which are mainly used to restore mana, heal wounds and detoxify. There are several bottles of each, but there is only one bottle of pills for cultivation.

As for the spiritual weapons, they are also very simple, with only seven in total, four of which are defensive spiritual weapons.

There was one mid-grade item, two high-grade items, and one top-grade item. However, one of the high-grade defensive spiritual weapons had been destroyed by the purple light.

There were three attacking spiritual weapons left, two flying swords, one top grade and one top grade, but Lin Changqing didn't care much about them.

What he was most concerned about was a top-grade spiritual weapon in the shape of a pagoda. At first, he thought that this thing was used to trap people.

Unexpectedly, after studying it, I found out that it was actually used to hold ghosts, and there were several small spaces filled with yin energy inside.

After understanding the function of the pagoda, Lin Changqing lost interest in it, mainly because he had no use for it.

He resisted it in his heart. He did not like these evil things, such as raising corpses to ward off ghosts. He felt they were extremely filthy.

Of the seven spiritual weapons that were harvested, five bore the mark of the Ghost Control Sect, so Lin Changqing planned to sort them out before leaving the secret realm.

Gather together all the things bearing the marks of various sects and destroy them uniformly, leaving no hidden dangers for yourself.

Of course, the identity jade tokens are excluded, and some will be left for Chen Ziya to report back.

He himself didn't need it because he was not a disciple of Qingyun Sect and had no way to exchange it for sect contribution points.
