“Screech!”
Under tremendous pain, the hawk fought back desperately. Its angry cries echoed through the dense forest. However, Su Zhi, Su Yu and the others had already retreated the moment they attacked. The hawk, still affected by the Chill Spell, was a bit slow to retaliate.
Moreover, Su Zhi’s medium-grade magical flying sword was extremely sharp. It had pierced the bloody hole made by Cloud -Piercing Arrow. Even if the hawk managed to pin down the flying sword, this strike still inflicted significant damage.
Not to mention, Su Yu and the other four also unleashed their magic artifacts, causing the hawk’s injuries to deeped further.
With the hawk desperately attempting to fight back, the effects of the befuddling elixir coursing through its body intensified more rapidly.
It scarcely managed to hold on for a hundred breaths. Su Zhi and the others kept blocking the hawk from escaping, its giant body eventually collapsed to the ground.
Only when Su Zhi used her flying sword to sever the hawk’s head did she finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Li Shinan and Chen Sisi secretly marveled, recalling their magic artifacts as they realized the hawk was dead.
All of this felt slightly surreal, yet oddly unsatisfying.
Had they really killed the hawk so easily?
As this idea popped up in the minds of Li Shinan and Chen Sisi, their gaze fell upon Su Yu. They both shook their heads in denial.
The hawk did not die in vain.
It indeed was very powerful.
However, against a series of attacks from high-grade symbols, and the presence of Su Zhi, who was at the Qi Refinement Stage seventh level, coupled with the miraculous effects of the befuddling elixir it would be strange if the hawk hadn’t died!
Strictly speaking, the hawk wasn’t killed by them, it was killed by money.
Four high-grade symbols, each worth almost two hundred low-grade spirit stones, were very expensive. Add the exceedingly useful befuddling elixir, and the late-stage hawk was likely worth that much.
The enormous body of the dead hawk, with its wings spread out over ten meters, presented a somber sight. Its entire body was covered in black feathers, glistening coldly like black iron.
The talons, beak, feathers, and so on, were all excellent materials.
But Su Yu was only interested in the first-grade monster beast essence blood. The hawk had sixty-three drops of essence blood, each worth approximately one hundred sixty to seventy low-grade spirit stones.
Originally, Su Yu wanted to gather all of this using spirit stones, but Li Shinan, Chen Sisi, and Su Qingyi all declined and told Su Yu to take the monster essence blood instead.
Among them all, besides Su Zhi, Su Yu had contributed the most to killing the hawk.
Hearing their words, Su Yu laughed: “Then do not mind if I do.”
The remaining materials were handed over to Su Qingyi for handling, who would later divide them with Li Shinan and Chen Sisi.
After storing the hawk’s head, Su Zhi happily declared, “I owe you all a favor.”
Then she turned to Su Yu and said, “Little Yu, count the two Cloud -Piercing Arrow symbols as mine, you’ve already helped me enormously.”
The hunt for the hawk came with unexpected ease.
However, such a hunting method wasn’t advisable due to the extravagance of the method. If it wasn’t for the mission, it wouldn’t have been worth it. Everyone left the mountain cheerfully and headed back to Yunjian Sect.
A short while later…
A shadowy figure appeared where they had been hunting the hawk, his facial expressions changing unpredictably.
“A hawk of Qi Refinement Stage eighth-level equivalent was hunted down by these brats in less than half an hour?”
“And there are no signs of heavy injuries or consumption on them.”
Originally, having sensed that Su Zhi and the others wanted to hunt the hawk, he was quite thrilled.
He was planning to take advantage of a situation where both the hawk and Su Zhi’s group would end up seriously injured, thereby seizing an opportunity to easily gain a late-stage monster beast.
Who would have thought that Su Zhi’s group was so formidable? In just half an hour, they brought down a not so weak hawk.
They were not even injured!
Upon seeing this, he was terrified. How could he dare to confront them?
“Damn it.”
Cursing silently, he reluctantly watched the direction Su Zhi and the others left in, whispering: “I’ll have to wait for another opportunity.”
“Su Zhi is quite strong, I can give up on her.”
“But Su Yu is only at the fourth level of the Qi Refinement Stage. As long as I seize a single opportunity, I can capture him.”
“Hmph.’
Su Zhi’s task submission and promotion to the inner gate is none of Su Yu’s business.
Returning to the Elixir Pavilion in the market after completing the task of hunting the Mountain Eagle, Su Yu felt an unprecedented sense of relaxation and clarity as he recounted the process.
It was a feeling of exhilaration and fulfillment. Throwing talismans haphazardly, then offering up Mind -Trapping Liquid,
And launching attack after attack with Magic Artifacts,
The Mountain Eagle didn’t stand a chance, it was effortlessly hunted down by the team.
This combat method was a revelation for Su Yu, As if he had found his path for future battles.
This task was not as difficult as he had expected.
“That Ice Talisman was really effective and useful. When combined with other talismans, and attacking with spells and Magic Artifacts, the enemy would find it hard to evade.”
“And then, knocking them down with the potion…perfect.”
Su Yu secretly applauded.
But then—
When Su Yu snapped out of his euphoria, he felt something was amiss.
Why would he think this way?
Given his current situation, possessing the proficient panel, this battle strategy that relies heavily on various treasures should not be his first choice.
The path Su Yu should be taking: to hang on as much as he can, grinding his own cultivation and Body Refinement skills day after day.
And finally—
Use absolute overwhelming strength and smack the enemy dead with a single blow.
Just like the Mountain Eagle this time, if he were at the Foundation Establishment Realm, or even at the Body Refinement Realm comparable to the Foundation Establishment Realm, there would be no danger or difficulty in dealing with the Mountain Eagle.
Shouldn’t this be his true pursuit?
“Yes, this is how it should be. I almost went astray,” said Su Yu, his eyes slightly condensed.
In that case, he needs to think about how to earn some resources to maintain his peaceful days in the market.
Back at the Elixir Pavilion, Su Yu returned to his normal routine. Apart from practicing the Green Wood Year Ring Skill, Body Refinement Realm, and Spell every day, he was learning and practicing Alchemy with his master Su Yun to accumulate proficiency.
As for that seed, it gradually became plump with a stronger life force after being nurtured by Su Yu’s Mana every day.
A month later.
With the assistance of late-stage first order demon beast blood essence, Su Yu’s Body Refinement Realm naturally broke through to the sixth level.
After the breakthrough, Su Yu felt the core of the previously accumulated power of Blood Whale Moon Swallowing Technique was emptied by a large amount, and he must refill the power once again.
“Brother Yu, I know the whereabouts of a Bi Ling Python that just broke through to the late-stage of the first order. Do you want to take it down together?” Su Qingyi found Su Yu and suggested in a low voice.
Su Yu shook his head upon hearing, “No, I’m barely at Qi Refinement four boundaries, I dare not mess around with the late-stage first order demon beast.”
Despite Su Qingyi’s persuasion, Su Yu didn’t agree to go out with him. In the end, he only got some Mind -Trapping Liquid from Su Yu and went to the wilderness himself to hunt the Bi Ling Python.
His talent in Alchemy is far inferior to Su Yu’s, so Su Qingyi has been focusing on hunting demon beasts recently.
He hopes to accumulate some cultivation resources to maintain his own practice.
Two days later.
Su Qingyi came back from hunting, and although he was slightly injured, he did succeed in hunting the late-stage first order Bi Ling Python.
He gave half of the Bi Ling Python’s blood essence to Su Yu.
Su Yu thought that his days in the market could continue to be so peaceful, but half a month after he broke through the sixth level of Body Refinement Realm, he heard some bad news.
The young master of the Lin Family who entered Yunjian Sect previously, Lin Danlang, married into Bai Family of Maple City. He married the second daughter of the Bai Family who weighed more than four hundred jin, in exchange for the support of Bai Family of Maple City.
The Bai Family of Maple City is a respect-worthy cultivation faction with two ancestors at the Foundation Establishment Realm..
