Seeing this, Zhang Ling breathed a sigh of relief. A yellow light flashed on his body, and he condensed a talisman in his hand. This was the talisman treasure he obtained from Wu Minghan. Just now, he used this treasure to遁地 behind the black-robed man and launched a sneak attack. Looking at the spiritual light on the talisman in his hand dimmed a bit. It seems that this talisman treasure can only be used once or twice more. He retracted the talisman treasure and looked at the female cultivator not far away. At this time, some ice-blue butterflies were flying around the female cultivator, forming a thick ice cover that wrapped her in it. As for the huge spear that the black-robed man attacked with last, he gave up control of this magical weapon when he was sneak attacked. Without the support of subsequent spiritual power, its power was greatly reduced. It only shattered part of the ice before losing its power and falling to the ground. Seeing this situation, the female cultivator opened her small mouth, not knowing what had happened. She carefully drove the spiritual insects to crack a crack in the ice layer, just in time to see the scene of the black-robed man being killed. The female cultivator turned her head and saw Zhang Ling, and a smile immediately bloomed on her face. " Hehe." "Little girl, you've reached the Foundation Establishment stage after not seeing you for a few years." Zhang Ling smiled when he saw the female cultivator and nodded to her. This girl has become more and more beautiful after not seeing her for a few years. Although she looks a little embarrassed at the moment, Mu Xiaoyan's smile is still the same as before. "Yan'er, let's help the others deal with the other two enemies first."
"Okay, big brother." The two looked towards another battle group, only to see one of the black-robed men being beaten down by Wu Minghan and another female cultivator. When the two looked at the other battle group, a powerful spiritual power fluctuation suddenly erupted. A black light rose into the sky and flew into the distance. The figure in it was the black-robed man in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment. This person actually escaped. Then the two joined the siege against the last black-robed man. This black-clothed man naturally had no chance of survival in the hands of several fellow cultivators of the same rank. He only lasted for a moment before being killed by several magical weapons. "Thank you for your help, the three of you. I wonder who you are?" "Haha, we are cultivators from the Haoyuan Sect." "So you are fellow disciples of the Nine Sects. I am Mu Yun from the Beast Control Sect. Thank you three for saving my life." A bearded, white-robed middle-aged man said to Zhang Ling and the others with a sincere expression. "Fellow Daoist Mu is too polite." Seeing this, Wang Fujun naturally responded with a smile, looking calm and collected. The remaining two were both female cultivators, and they also thanked Zhang Ling and the others. Besides Mu Xiaoyan, another tall female cultivator, a disciple of the Joyful Valley, was also a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator named Su Ying'er. The group cleaned up the battlefield and found a secluded place to talk. It turned out that these people were just like them, except that they were stationed at Qingyue pool. A few days ago, like them, they went to Yanxia Immortal City and returned today. There were six people in their group. Earlier, they were ambushed by three black-robed cultivators in another place, and two of them were killed instantly. The remaining four fled here and could only struggle to support themselves. Just now, another disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect surnamed Zhang died. If it weren't for the three of them passing by, these people would have had a hard time escaping death today. Even so, they let the strongest black-robed man in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment escape. As for who the black-robed men were, they didn't know either. Afterwards, the group checked the storage bags of the two people who were killed. There were many things inside, but nothing that could prove their identities. There was only one gray bag that caught their attention. This bag was found on the black-clothed man who was killed by Zhang Ling. This was a spirit beast bag, and a civet cat monster beast was lying inside, but it was already dead. It looked like it had just died. The group took a few glances and lost interest. This monster beast looked like just a low-level monster beast, and the materials on its body were not worth a few spirit stones.
At this time, he heard Mu Xiaoyan's voice explaining to him. "Brother Zhang, this monster beast seems to be the black-robed man's spirit beast. At the moment he was killed, the spirit beast was backlashed and died. Some beast-controlling cultivators will place some restrictions on the monster beast's body. The most insidious one is this kind of slave contract. After the master dies, the spirit beast will also suffer a powerful backlash, either its strength will be greatly reduced, or it will die directly." Zhang Ling only sighed in his heart about this. Afterwards, they began to distribute the spoils of war. The storage bags of the two dead fellow disciples could not be touched. In fact, they only killed two black-robed men. One of the black-clothed men was killed by Zhang Ling alone. This person's storage bag belonged to Zhang Ling. Seeing this, these people also developed a trace of awe for him. After all, their cultivation levels were all in the early stage of Foundation Establishment, but being able to kill a fellow cultivator of the same rank in a short period of time would naturally be looked upon highly by these people. Zhang Ling casually said a few words of modesty and put away the storage bag and the spirit beast bag. Finally, they returned to the garrison together. …… Two hours later, Zhang Ling and the others returned to their respective cave dwellings. At this moment, he took out a storage bag and poured out the things inside. There were only five or six hundred low-grade spirit stones, and the rest were a few bottles of pills. Only one bottle of Peiyuan Pill was of some value. The rest were a few books and two or three jade slips. Of course, he also found a few magical weapons. In addition to the azure spear and copper ring that the black-robed man had used before, which were both top-grade magical weapons, there was also a black small axe magical weapon that was also a top-grade magical weapon. Having these three top-grade magical weapons was not a wasted trip. Zhang Ling then began to check the jade slips and books. His spiritual sense was immersed in a white jade slip, which recorded a large amount of information such as monster beast illustrations. And finally, there were also two kinds of contract spells to drive spirit beasts, and Zhang Ling was quite interested in studying them. One of the forbidden spells was the kind of insidious contract that Mu Xiaoyan said, and the other contract, although it was also a slave contract, was not so insidious. And after he understood the two spirit beast contracts, he also knew that they were for different spirit beasts. The insidious contract is for some adult monster beasts. These monster beasts basically cannot be driven by cultivators. Because once a monster beast becomes an adult, although its intelligence is low, it also has its temper as a monster beast. After being captured alive by cultivators, they either go crazy or commit suicide. The other kind of contract is the one that cultivators often use to drive monster beasts. This kind of contract is planted when the monster beast is young or still in the form of a beast egg. Once hatched, it will develop a sense of intimacy with the cultivator. After reading this jade slip information, the other books and jade slips were all ordinary skills and spells, which did not interest him. Finally, he released the civet cat corpse from the spirit beast bag. This monster beast was the same as an ordinary civet cat, except that its body was three or four times larger, like a small tiger. After looking at the characteristics of the monster beast for a few times, he picked up the jade slip, and soon he knew that this was a monster beast called a White Spirit Beast. It is recorded that the White Spirit Beast only reaches the level of a first-order monster beast when it is an adult, and very few White Spirit Beasts can break through to the second order. Then he began to deal with the monster beast's corpse. Suddenly, he saw a slight wriggling in the abdomen of the monster beast. He frowned and probed with his spiritual sense, and actually found a weak life breath in the monster beast's abdomen. Opening the White Spirit Beast's belly, he saw a cub covered in mucus. This cub was only the size of a palm, crawling slowly on the ground, and making a clear sound. For a moment, he looked at the White Spirit Beast's cub with complicated feelings.
