Chapter 66: The terrifying beast, my heart is pounding!

After sending out the scout straw man, Zhao Xing looked at the Ganoderma lucidum he had just obtained.

"Low-grade Lingxiu, I don't know if it increases lifespan or vitality."

The spiritual energy exuded a refreshing fragrance. He tried taking a bite and soon learned the name and effects of Ganoderma lucidum.

[You have taken the low-grade Lingxiu 'Purple Lightning Ganoderma', which increases your lifespan by 2 months, increases your vitality by 100 points, and increases your thunder magic proficiency by 150 points.]

"Huh? Why is there also the understanding of thunder magic?" Zhao Xing felt an electric current flowing in his body.

After taking a bite, he found that this purple lightning Ganoderma lucidum increased his lifespan, vitality, and understanding of thunder magic.

"It seems that this Ganoderma lucidum is not far from the middle-grade Lingxiu. If given a little more time, I'm afraid it will be able to truly enter the middle-grade level."

As for why Garefa had this enlightenment, it was not random.

Zhao Xing observed that piece of rotten wood was broken after being struck by lightning.

The purple electric Ganoderma lucidum that grows from the lightning-struck wood is naturally the perception related to the thunder method.

After eating all the Ganoderma lucidum, Zhao Xing took a look at the panel.

【Name: Zhao Xing】

[Realm: Unqualified]

【Qi Luck: Yan II】

[Ju Yuan: Level 1156 (10000/)]

[Extra lifespan: 35 years]

[Spell: Basic Cultivation (Maximum Level)]

[Thunder (Basic): Seventh Turn (7784/9999)]

[Lightning Attraction (Intermediate): First Turn (1955/9999)]

After taking the Purple Lightning Ganoderma Lucidum completely, his life span increased by 2 years, his vitality increased by nearly a thousand points, and his understanding of thunder magic increased by more than points.

Since what is increased is the understanding of thunder magic, both the spells [Thunder] and [Attract Thunder] will benefit from it.

Thundering is close to the eighth level of magic, and attracting lightning is also close to the second level of magic.

"It only adds two years to my lifespan, but it's a pleasant surprise."

Anyway, beating Qin Feng is like picking up something for free, so any amount of extra money is love.

"Puff~"

My heart started beating suddenly.

After reaching the sixth level of Ju Yuan, it only took a quarter of an hour to absorb the Ganoderma lucidum.

Zhao Xing noticed that the reconnaissance straw man was approaching the entrance of the cave.

"There doesn't seem to be anything unusual. Could it be that the beast has gone out?"

Controlling the straw man to look left and right, Zhao Xing did not see any ferocious beasts, so he became a little braver.

"Shu~"

The straw man stopped pretending and quickly rushed into the cave.

Since the scout straw man did not inherit Zhao Xing's bright eyes spell, his vision suddenly became dark after he rushed into the cave.

"Using a first-level Donghu Pearl as eyes is still not enough. When encountering such a complex environment, it can't cope with it."

"Next time, consider using the Night Pearl, or other treasures that can increase your vision in the dark."

Fortunately, the cave is relatively large and the lighting is good, so we can still see it.

The cave is not humid and is well ventilated.

The straw man had just moved five meters in when his vision decreased and he stepped on a dead branch, making a crackling sound.

Zhao Xing controlled the straw man and looked down, only to find that what was under his feet were not dead branches, but bones as thick as arms!

"This cave is deep enough."

Zhao Xing continued to move forward, and advanced another ten meters safely. He found that he still could not see the end. It was pitch black inside, and the slope was going down. The height of the cave was getting higher and higher, exceeding seven or eight meters.

"This cave is too big. What kind of ferocious beast lives here?"

Such a large cave makes it hard not to think of the size of a ferocious beast.

And the dry bones on the ground are growing larger and larger.

At first, it looked like just some bones of rabbits, pheasants, etc.

But gradually, large and ferocious beasts appeared.

When the reconnaissance straw man went twenty meters deep, he actually saw a relatively complete skeleton over five meters high in front of him!
"What species is this? Could the dead one be a high-quality exotic beast?" There was no head and many ribs were missing. Zhao Xing could only judge that this should be a high-quality exotic beast.

There might even be more than nine grades!
"Donghu Mountain has bred powerful high-grade exotic beasts, but few people have seen them alive. Usually, after leaving the mountain in autumn, they are dealt with by the authorities."

“Could it be that there is a high-grade exotic beast living here?”

Zhao Xing became more cautious and controlled the reconnaissance straw man to carefully pass through the skeleton.

At this moment, a light flashed from the Donghu Pearl, and the field of view fed back by the reconnaissance straw man suddenly became brighter.

Two light sources appeared in front.

The moment he saw the light, Zhao Xing's impulse suddenly doubled in intensity.

“Could it be a top-grade Lingxiu?”

He immediately controlled the reconnaissance man to run over, wanting to take it and run away.

However, the two beams of light flashed and rushed towards the scout like lightning.

"Om~"

The next moment, Zhao Xing lost contact with the reconnaissance straw man.

Then, a faint roar was heard from the cave.

"Good fellow, mistaking the eyes of a strange beast for spiritual beauty." Zhao Xing realized it belatedly.

What I just saw was not a treasure at all, it was most likely the eyes of a strange beast.

It was so fast that the scout had no time to react and was destroyed before he could even see what was happening.

"If it's guarded by an advanced exotic beast, it will be very difficult to deal with."

"What's more, I don't even know what this strange beast looks like or what realm it is in." Zhao Xing thought.

Zhou Gang and Fang Jie did give him a surprise, but the surprise was so big that he didn't know if he could handle it.

"Explore again!"

This time, Zhao Xing sent three powerful Vajras, five entangled straw men, and a reconnaissance straw man into the cave.

The three powerful Vajras and five entangled straw men were just there to cover the scout straw men's observation.

The purpose of the second exploration is to confirm the species and strength of the exotic beast, so there is no need to hide it anymore.

Just let the straw man rush over in a swagger.

Zhao Xing jumped onto a high branch, facing the cave, and watched from afar.

As soon as the straw man team entered the cave.

"Swish, swish, swish~"

A blurry black shadow appeared, almost as fast as lightning.

From Zhao Xing's perspective, he couldn't see the strange beast's movements clearly.

He only observed the straw man leading the way.

The Seven-turn Vajra in the front was cut in half with one encounter.

Not to mention the entangled straw man, which was completely shattered.

In the end, the scout only saw a vague shadow and two balls of dim light.

"Om~"

The vision was interrupted again.

A roar came from the cave.

Zhou Gang and Fang Jie, who were recovering from their injuries, were trembling with fear after hearing this. Their hearts were pounding and they were sweating profusely.

Zhao Xing also felt as if his heart was being gripped and he could not calm down.

"It is definitely a rare beast that has entered the ninth rank. It is either higher than the ninth rank, or it is a natural species with a powerful bloodline."

Even though he hadn't seen it yet, Zhao Xing understood how terrifying the mysterious beast in the cave was.

"It's big, but it's still so fast?"

“Generally speaking, the strength of strange beasts is also linked to the treasures they guard. The treasures inside must be top-grade spiritual treasures.” Zhao Xing’s eyes were a little hot.

Good luck and talent are also what he desires very much. The benefits brought by his second good luck are quite great. The early warnings of the almanac to ward off evil are more accurate, and he has an advantage in fighting. He can even enter the sacred mountain and pick up red fruits by farming at the foot of the mountain!

"Such a huge beast will definitely come out to look for food. It's just dawn now. It has spent a night, so it should come out to look for food in the morning. Perhaps we can use a straw man to lure the tiger away from the mountain." Zhao Xing's eyes turned and he began to plan in his mind.
