Chapter 71 Alchemy
Soon, Xu Zhiruo and the little beast also woke up from their sleep.
"It smells so good. Brother is grilling meat again." Xu Zhiruo said with a smile on her face, "Brother is really attentive."
The little beast also wrinkled its nose, and its eyes were naturally attracted by the smell of barbecue.
By this time, the pig had been roasted to a golden color, and Duguchi's barbecue skills were getting better and better. Under the temptation of the aroma, the little beast stared at the roasted pig without moving.
It didn't take long, and the pig was finally roasted. As usual, Dugu Chi and Xu Zhiruo each had one front leg, and most of the other pigs were wrapped up by the little beast.
The resting place for several people was naturally close to a water source. The girl was very clean, so after finishing her meal, Chu Zhiruo naturally went to the water source to freshen up.
It was now morning. The purpose of the two coming here was naturally for the Ming Ling Pearl. However, they had been delayed in the past few days because of Duguchi's promotion. It was still early today. As soon as the two of them discussed it, they took Xiao The beasts went to explore the valley together.
The Valley of Ghosts is quite deep, and given its name, there is naturally something ghostly about it. The mouth of the valley is quite large, but the valley is very narrow, with rocky cliffs on both sides. The ancient trees in the valley are so towering that not even a ray of sunlight can penetrate. There are also things growing in the valley. I don’t know what kind of tree it is. Most of it is black, with knotted branches and mist rising in the forest. It really looks like a ghost.
The two searched for half a day before they found a stream of water deep in the Ghost Valley. The stream flowed out from the forest and formed a deep pool under a rock. Judging from the color of the water, the pool was indeed quite deep.
"I don't know if this stream is the so-called Mingxi River?" Xu Zhiruo asked Dugu Chi, looking at the deep pool.
"I don't know either, but let's search the stream first to see if there are ghost clams." Duguchi glanced at the deep pool again and said: "This stream is quite small, I'm afraid it won't be able to support ghost clams. If there may be a ghost clam, it must be in this pool."
Xu Zhiruo looked at the green pool water and frowned: "It looks like the pool water is quite deep. Brother, do you know how to swim?"
"It doesn't matter if you don't know how to swim, as long as you know how to fish." Duguchi said with a smile.
"Fishing?" Duguchi's words confused Xu Zhiruo for a while.
"No need to ask, just watch." Duguchi didn't explain. He took out a wild boar from his ring, dipped it in the pool, then dragged it up and placed it on the bank of the pool. Then he turned his wrist and A simple purple thin bottle appeared in his hand. This bottle was naturally the demon refining bottle that Ling'er refined for him.
"I wonder if this demon refining bottle can refine demon beasts, but now I can give it a try." Dugu Chi thought.
After a short time, I saw the water waves surging in the pool, and a huge devil clam emerged from the water. The devil clam was completely black and was about the size of a tabletop. As soon as the devil clam emerged from the water, The clam shells opened on both sides, revealing a row of sharp fangs in the clam's mouth, and it rushed towards the wild boar carcass on the shore.
Duguchi didn't say much when he saw it. He threw the demon refining bottle in his hand into the air, pinched the formula with his right index finger, and directed a wisp of vitality towards the bottle.
I saw the bottle flipping in the air, and a purple vortex appeared at the mouth of the bottle. The vortex covered the devil clam, and I saw that the devil clam had no power to fight back. When it was covered by the vortex, it turned into a purple vortex. With a whooshing sound, it was sucked into the mouth of the small bottle.
All this was so strange in Xu Zhiruo's eyes. She had never heard of this situation, not to mention seeing it. A living devil clam could be sucked into the palm-sized ancient bottle. During this time, she couldn't figure it out.
After the demon refining bottle ingested the devil clam, it turned around and flew back into Dugu Chi's hands. Dugu Chi didn't say anything, he just looked at the water pool. He saw that there would be no more movement for a while. Then he turned his attention to the ancient bottle held in his hand.
I saw the purple light flashing on the demon refining bottle at this time, which was triggering the rules of the world to refine the demon clam in the bottle.
After about half a stick of incense, the purple light on the demon refining bottle finally stopped flashing. Dugu Chi grabbed the bottle and tilted the mouth of the bottle toward his palm, and saw two beads, one white and one green, rolling down into his palm.
Dugu Chi released his spiritual consciousness to examine the two beads, and couldn't help but secretly rejoiced, "It's really done."
The green round bead is a ghost bead, and the white bead is naturally the devil clam soul. When you look closely, you can see a white mini clam soul in the bead that is lifelike. Duguchi smiled and put the two beads into the ring.
After about two sticks of incense, the water in the pool surged again, and another devil clam emerged from the pool. Without saying much, Duguchi raised the demon refining bottle and took in the devil clam.
In one day, in this pool, Duguchi actually harvested six soul pearls and six ghost pearls each. But later, no more demon clams emerged from the pool. It was thought that the demon clams living in this pool They must have been arrested.
Seeing that it was already getting late, Dugu Chi and the others exited the valley and found a place to rest. There was a bonfire, two people and one animal. At this time, Xu Zhiruo was sitting next to the fire, holding two beads, one green and one white, watching carefully. .Looking at her expression, it was obvious that she still had doubts in her heart. After looking at it for a while, she raised her head, looked at Dugu Chi and asked: "Brother, can you clarify your doubts now?"
Looking at Xu Zhiruo, who was as curious as a baby, Dugu Chi couldn't help but laugh. He raised his hand and pinched her delicate nose and said with a smile: "Actually, it's nothing. That devil clam is the lowest level of monster. It has almost no wisdom and only instinct. In response to hunting, I immersed the pig carcass in the water, and the blood on the pig carcass would spread in the pool. When they smell the blood, the devil clams would think that prey had fallen into the water, so they would float up and hunt. "
After hearing Dugu's explanation, it was really a fishing method, setting bait to catch it. "But what is that bottle? Why is it so weird that it can take the magic clam in and turn it into this soul bead?"
"Haha, you also know that the skills that my brother practices are different from the Demon Spirit Demon Gang. In fact, this bottle is the same as the weapon staff of those who practice Demon Spirit Demon Gang. It is a special weapon suitable for my brother's own skills. , this bottle is called the Demon Refining Bottle, and its function is as you can see. In fact, the world is very big, and there are very few things that a person can understand, and there is no need to feel incredible about things that he does not understand." Dugu Chi explained.
Regarding Dugu Chi's statement, Xu Zhiruo could barely accept it and stopped asking further questions. "By the way, brother, I think the beast soul in this soul bead may be of some use to me."
Duguchi laughed and said: "Some use? Silly sister, you practice soul witchcraft. This beast soul is of great use to you. Your staff can guide the soul to attack. Wait. Let's go back to the cave. I will refining your staff and refining the captured beast souls into it. These monsters each had their own innate magic and magic skills during their lifetime, and their souls will definitely inherit some of them. , once it is refined into your staff, you can use it to attack, and won’t you have a lot of helpers invisibly?”
"Ah, that's it. If my brother trains hundreds or thousands of high-level beast souls into my staff, wouldn't it be like I have hundreds or thousands of high-level beasts to help me?" After hearing Dugu Chi's words, Xu Zhiruo Extremely excited.
Duguchi smiled and touched her hair, "Xiao Nizi actually wants to do something good. This beast soul driving depends on your level of cultivation. According to my guess, your current second-level cultivation can only drive A second-level beast soul. A first-level beast soul? Six is the upper limit you can control. If you want to forcefully drive more higher-level beast souls, it may cause backlash to your soul. If your brother takes your Re-refining the staff, and using it, your control will be much stronger, and you can probably control two second-level beast souls."
"Ah, that's it." The result was a bit different from what he expected. "But it's not bad to be able to command two second-level beast souls to attack at once. Doesn't it mean I have two helpers of the same level?" Thinking about this result, Yes, Xu Zhiruo is still very happy.
"Be content, just do it." Duguchi glared at her angrily, "Such a good thing is already outrageous compared to other cultivators, what else do you want."
"Hehe, wasn't I just talking? After hearing what my brother said, I couldn't help but want to rush back to the cave." Xu Zhiruo said coquettishly.
"Brother is really good to his sister." Ling'er in the sea of consciousness also said with a smile to Dugu Chi.
Hearing Ling'er's voice in the sea of consciousness, Dugu Chi felt embarrassed and wanted to touch his nose again.
"Brother, don't worry, Ling'er won't be jealous." Ling'er said with a smile, "Speaking of my brother's younger siblings, they are really good. They treat him well, and Ling'er is also very happy."
Ling'er's words moved Dugu Chi very much, and he didn't know what to say. Also, these brothers and sisters of his are all excellent. No matter Ling'er, Xu Zhiruo, Zhou Tong brothers and sisters, or Yuan Xin brothers and sisters, they can be so good in this life. Several younger siblings, Duguchi also felt extremely lucky and satisfied.
