Chapter 92: Dragon Beast Hills

  "Camilla, can't you be more elegant when sucking blood? Your movements are too rough!"

  Lin Xi furrowed his brow and looked at Kamila, who was floating in the air with a twisted neck, and said through telepathy.

  "Master, this is unavoidable. This guy's strength isn't small, if we don't suck his blood dry in one go, he probably won't die so quickly."

  Camilla descended slowly from the air, wearing a red dress. She wiped away the scarlet blood from the corner of her mouth with elegant and gentle movements. However, the sparkling light in her eyes revealed the excitement in the queen's heart.

  A powerful cultivator in the Refining Qi realm, with a rich and thick blood energy, was truly a great tonic for the Blood Queen. Even after living for hundreds of years, Camilla had rarely had the opportunity to fully absorb the essence of a Refining Qi realm cultivator!

  "This is so comfortable!"

  Camilla narrowed her eyes and thought with a comfortable feeling in her heart.

  She now increasingly feels that her initial decision to make the "Ancestor's Vow" was a wise one. Having followed Lin Xi for less than a month, she has already recovered so much of her strength and even drained an entire Qi Refining cultivator's essence blood.

  This would have been completely unimaginable in the past!

  Camilla is more and more satisfied with her current master!

  "Alright, come here!"

  Lin Xi called out.

  He felt that Camilla's strength had increased a lot, and now she was close to the peak of Refining Qi First Stage. At this speed, it was likely that she would soon break through to Refining Qi Second Stage.

  This is also good news for Lin Xi. Nothing more needs to be said.

  "Give me the sword," Lin Xi said.

  The most valuable things on the Cao brothers' bodies are the three low-grade artifacts, Longhu Bao, and the three ritual swords. With this strength, even among the outer disciples of the Shenyue Sect, they would be considered to have real power.

  Unfortunately, Lin Xi was lucky.

  Camilla handed over the ritual objects and ritual sword very decisively.

  Three pieces of magic equipment, plus three handles of magic swords, this harvest is not small. What's even more unexpected is that on the Cao brothers' bodies, a copy of "Qin Gong" was actually found.

  "Xīn yǒu gōng" belongs to the outer door disciples, can be selected, refining gas one level of superior absolute learning. In Fú dé dà tiān, a large amount of merit value is required for exchange.

  Lin Xi now roughly understands that in the Xian Dao sect, all the ultimate skills, elixirs, and even magical instruments can be exchanged for merit points.

  This is also the reason why the sect sets up a large number of sectarian tasks.

  The sect makes contributions to the sect through this method, and gives rewards such as ultimate skills, elixirs, and artifacts. This can not only stimulate the sense of belonging among the disciples, but also encourage them to strive for excellence by rewarding outstanding disciples.

  In the Xian Dao sect, all ultimate skills require merit points to exchange. Even if it's an inner door disciple, core disciple, true transmission disciple, or even elder, they are all the same.

  Everyone is prohibited from privately teaching the ultimate skill. Of course, the sect does not prohibit disciples from using their merits to exchange for manuals, elixirs, and magical instruments, and then giving them to others.

  Lin Xi is now clear and white, he doesn't have enough merit to exchange for a copy of "Xun Xun's Merit". The Cao brothers' contribution of this ultimate skill has saved him a large amount of merit.

  The only drawback is that it was not obtained through merit point exchange. Therefore, the "Huangquan Merit" cannot be used on Shenxia Mountain.

  "With this 'Xuanwu Cultivation', this trip to the Black Dragon Space is worth it."

  Lin Xi grasped "Jiāo Hǔ Gōng", and nodded secretly.

  He now has only one "Ghost King's Work" on his body, but after all, it is a wicked and unorthodox skill that cannot be shown in polite society. This "Jiāo Huàn Gōng" happens to come at the right time like timely rain.

  As for the restriction that cannot be used on Shen Xiao Mountain, Lin Xi had never thought of staying on Shen Xiao Mountain for a long time. As soon as he had time, he would go to receive sect tasks, go down the mountain, and earn merit points, while tempering himself and broadening his horizons.

  "Deal with the corpse quickly. Let's hurry up and go. We need to complete the task of collecting dragon blood grass and dragon blood fruit first."

  Lin Xi said calmly.

  This trip, the merit value has been brushed up quite a bit. What's left is just the main storyline task.

  With Camilla present, the corpses of the Cao brothers were quickly disposed of. They were directly thrown into a volcanic crater, destroying all traces.

  Although there are internal struggles within the faction everywhere, this kind of thing can't be made public. Especially when casualties occur, things must be handled more cleanly in such situations.

  Having dealt with the Cao brothers, those three troubles, Lin Xi and Camilla directly soared into the sky, flipping over the area where the Eagle Demons lived, heading towards the deeper Dragon Beast Hills.

  Before long, they arrived at Longshou Hill.

  The sky is overcast with dark clouds. Under the dark clouds, a stretch of black mountains rises and falls, stretching out along the horizon.

  In the depths of the mountains, a fierce and powerful aura burst forth. A series of ferocious and terrifying roars echoed back and forth, causing the earth to tremble violently.

  Faintly visible were huge, ferocious black skulls, flashing by in the Dragon Beast Hills. They held their heads high, and from their wide-open mouths, they spewed forth raging black flames.

  "What a terrifying aura!"

  Camilla halted at the edge of Dragonback Downs, her face subtly changing color. In the air, she felt a dragon's breath that made her very uncomfortable.

  "This is the Dragon Beast. It's said to be the most ferocious beast in this space, closest to the Black Dragon Bloodline. It's the offspring of a Black Dragon and other creatures. These ferocious beasts are all too powerful, basically all having cultivation close to Refining Qi Second Layer."

  Lin Xi said calmly.

  For these Black Dragon Beasts, Lin Xi had no idea at all.

  The strength of the Black Dragon Beast far surpasses that of the Flame Black Tiger and the Patrol Sky Eagle. Moreover, due to its close blood relationship with the Black Dragon, its physical body is extremely robust, and its defense is incredibly strong.

  The weakest among the Black Dragon Beasts is also at the peak of Refining Qi, First Stage. Killing such a fierce beast is troublesome, and the sect's reward is only 30 points of merit value, which is not worth it.

  "What a pity! This time's task didn't mention the Black Dragon Beast. If the reward was higher, like 60 or 80 merit points, I might consider taking out a few."

  Lin Xi let out a sigh of relief.

  The purpose of this trip is to obtain Long Blood Grass, Long Blood Fruit and Dragon Bone. Perhaps when the task was set, it didn't even occur that the disciples who took on the task could kill the Black Dragon Beast.

  After all, at least with the cultivation of refining Qi in the second stage of Tong Ming, one can communicate with the earth's energy and freely enter and exit the Hei Long Hills to hunt and kill ferocious beasts.

  But having such strength doesn't necessarily mean they will accept this elder task. After all, the tasks of the Black Dragon Space are mainly set by the sect for Qi Refining Stage and Named Disciples.

  A disciple of Double Refining Qi is already an elite among the outer door disciples. Having this time to accept Elder's task, it would be better to go and accept some tasks with more generous rewards instead.

  After all, the thick rewards of the elder's task are relatively speaking to the task rewards of the named disciples and the refining Qi second-rate disciples.

  "Let's go, hurry up and collect dragon blood grass and dragon blood fruit. Then go to the Black Dragon Graveyard, be careful."

  Lin Xi beckoned to Camilla.

  In the Black Dragon Space, the Dragon Blood Grass and Dragon Blood Fruit can only be found in two places. One is the deepest Black Dragon Graveyard, and the other is the Dragon Beast Hills. Relatively speaking, collecting Dragon Blood Grass and Dragon Blood Fruit in the Dragon Beast Hills is much safer.

  The Black Dragon Beast is called a beast, but it's not a dragon. However, due to its thick black dragon bloodline, their blood can still be considered dragon blood. The Dragon Blood Grass and Dragon Blood Fruit cultivated from it are still considered pure Dragon Blood Grass and Dragon Blood Fruit.

  "Dragon's blood herb one catty, dragon's blood fruit twenty pieces, let's split up and act separately."

  Lin Xi conveyed his thoughts to Camilla through the Ancestral Contract.

  "Hmm. Be careful, master."

  Camilla transmitted an idea and disappeared with a whoosh.

  The soil of Longshou Hills is all black, with a smell of burnt offerings. This is the black flame sprayed out by the Black Dragon Beast, burning out.

  Also for this reason, Longshou Hill has almost no big trees. However, many weeds have grown, clump after clump.

  These weeds are all fire-resistant plants and use dragon beast dung, saliva, and dragon blood as nutrients.

  "Found it!"

  Lin Xi quickly found a blood-colored dragon's blood grass in a clump of weeds. Not all weeds are dragon's blood grass, only those that have absorbed the dragon's blood can be considered as such, and the color similar to fresh blood is the most distinctive feature.

  The weeds on Longshou Hill are scattered in patches. The Dragon's Blood Grass is not hard to find, it just takes some time.

  Because the dragon's blood grass is scattered. One kilogram of dragon's blood grass has at least hundreds of roots, while a clump of weeds only has about five or six roots, and it takes some effort to collect them.

  What is truly difficult to collect is the dragon blood fruit. The dragon blood fruit is the fruit that grows from the dragon blood grass, and it's estimated that only one dragon blood fruit will grow out of every 10,000 dragon blood grasses.

  Twenty dragon blood fruits, it looks like a small amount. In fact, it is actually very difficult to collect.

  "This is getting a bit troublesome."

  Lin Xi furrowed his brow. He had been searching for two hours in the Dragon Beast Hills, and the task of collecting Blood Dragon Grass was already complete. However, he had only managed to collect two Dragon Blood Fruits.

  The dragon blood fruit looks like a grass mushroom, but it's light black in color and has an aura of lava and black dragon.

  "Camilla, how's it going over there?"

  Lin Xi asked through his mind.

  "I picked five dragon fruits. The edge area has been searched, and the remaining is the core area. The black dragon beast there gives me a feeling of being too dangerous and terrifying. Getting close will result in death. I feel that inside there are heads of black dragon beasts, almost reaching the fourth heavy air fairy realm!"

  Camilla Road

  "Never mind, let's get out of here. Let's go to the Black Dragon Graveyard and take a look. The dragon blood of the Black Dragon Beast is too thin after all, it can't compare to the real Black Dragon. The amount of dragon fruit produced is too little. There should be more dragon fruit in the Black Dragon Graveyard."

  Lin Xi thought for a moment and decided.
