Mortal, marry the old demon's sister and build an immortal family

Chapter 146 Monster Hunting!

After one month.

"Fellow Daoist Ye, take care! I have something else to do, so I'll go back first." Cao Lu and Ye Xiaotian exchanged a few polite words, then flew away again.

"Master, please go in. The house has been cleaned up and the ship will leave the port soon." The man with thick eyebrows said as he stood by with his head lowered.

Ye Xiaotian glanced at the hull and walked in silently.

At the same time, the huge hull slowly moved again.

As soon as he entered, Ye Xiaotian was slightly stunned by everything in front of him!
What he saw was not the narrow passage that Ye Xiaotian had imagined, but a luxurious hall that was more than ten feet long and wide.

The floor of the hall was covered with a red brocade carpet, in the middle was a long sandalwood table inlaid with gold and silver, and there were more than a dozen chairs around it. Several people were talking around the table, and when they saw Ye Xiaotian's soul coming in, they immediately cast several sharp glances at him.

Seeing this scene, Ye Xiaotian frowned slightly, and an even stronger spiritual sense swept back at the same time.

The collision of several spiritual consciousnesses also made many other cultivators slightly frightened. The contempt in their eyes immediately disappeared, and they looked at Ye Xiaotian with a little respect.

As everyone knows, if one does not practice secret methods such as spiritual consciousness, the higher the level of cultivation, the stronger the spiritual consciousness. With the same peak level of foundation building cultivation, Ye Xiaotian's spiritual consciousness is obviously stronger than theirs. Although this does not mean that there will be improvements in cultivation, who can say for sure?
"Welcome Fellow Daoist Ye, who is here to preside over the formation together with all of you." A middle-aged man in his forties stood up and said with a laugh.

"It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Li, I'm honored." After Ye Xiaotian bowed slightly, his eyes swept into the hall, looking at the cultivators present.

There were exactly five people in total: a middle-aged scholar with ordinary looks, a charming young woman in her twenties, an old man with gray eyes, a young man with a glowing red body, and the middle-aged man who had just spoken.

Almost all of the six people present have reached the peak of foundation building, and it is reasonable for them to be responsible for presiding over the formation. Although the monsters have the advantage in physical strength and magical powers, the human race is more intelligent and can often defeat the strong with the weak by using the formation.

After they got to know each other, they began to practice the formation.

During the practice, Ye Xiaotian also became familiar with this formation. They were responsible for performing it for the cultivators at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage. It was not a problem to hold back a level six monster. As long as the Jindan cultivator could take action as soon as possible and eliminate the monster in a short time, victory would be theirs.

It would not be too difficult for a cultivator in the early Jindan stage to deal with a trapped level six monster. For this reason, this battle would not seem too dangerous.

But if it was really that simple, why would Liulian Palace offer a Dust-Reducing Pill as a reward to attract them to come?
Ye Xiaotian thought about it and felt that there was probably some trap in this.

Fortunately, he now has an avatar in the late Jindan stage, so he can respond flexibly. If there is real danger, he will summon the avatar to shock the Liulian Palace a little bit.

A month later, the ship finally anchored and stopped beside an unnamed desert island more than ten miles in size.

Led by a middle-aged monk named Li, Ye Xiaotian and others walked out of the ship.

As soon as they set foot on the island, a dazzling golden light flew from the sky. After hovering in front of a few people, the golden light dissipated, revealing an old man with a pale golden face, staring at them expressionlessly. .

There was no fluctuation of mana on this person, he looked like an ordinary person without any mana, but also like he had unfathomable mana that he could restrain at will. This made Han Li's heart tremble.

"I am Li Nantian, your subordinate, and I am here to pay my respects to Elder Miao!" Li Nantian stepped forward without hesitation, bowed deeply to the old man, and said with a respectful look on his face.

At this time, Ye Xiaotian and others who were standing behind him knew the identity of this person and came forward to greet him.

A cultivator in the Jindan stage is not someone that people like them can treat with disrespect.

"No need to be polite! Junior Brother Li, you did a good job this time. You brought these helpers just in time! Have they practiced the formation well? The monsters we have to deal with this time are very tricky, so we must not be careless!" The old man said slowly without changing his expression.

"Don't worry, elder. All of you Taoists have thoroughly mastered the various variations of the 'Six Evils Gathering Formation' and can definitely trap this beast!" Li Nantian said confidently.

"Okay! Fellow Taoists, our Liulian Hall needs your help. As long as you work hard, this hall will never treat you unfairly." The elder surnamed Miao glanced at the Confucian scholars, his expression softened, and became amiable.

"Don't worry, senior. We will do our best!" Before anyone else could say anything, the middle-aged scholar spoke first, with an apologetic smile on his face.

Seeing the Confucian scholar's flattering expression, the other people looked strange, but they could only echo him in the same voice.

"In this Chaos Star Sea, you can't achieve the Golden Elixir path by flattery." Seeing the middle-aged Confucian scholar like this, Ye Xiaotian couldn't help but shook his head secretly.

If he were to lick a Nascent Soul cultivator this time, he wouldn't say anything, but licking a Core Formation early stage cultivator would be a loss of his own status.

However, Elder Miao, who was the chief of the Sixth Palace this time, was very satisfied with the middle-aged scholar's answer. He nodded slightly and said:
"The formation was set up half a day ago. You just need to preside over it. Elder Wang is currently fighting with the monster in the nearby sea area. I will work with him to lure the beast over here. I estimate that we should be able to lure the beast into the formation early tomorrow morning. Then it will depend on your abilities. You can take a rest on the island first!"

After saying this, Elder Miao turned into a ray of golden light and flew away into the sky, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.

"My fellow Taoists, you have all heard what Elder Miao said. Let's take a half-day break and rest well. We will have a tough battle tomorrow!" Li Nantian said solemnly, looking back.

At this point, the others naturally didn't say anything else and just nodded to show that they understood.

But at this moment, Qing Suanzi, who had spoken very little along the way, suddenly asked woodenly.

"Friend Li, along the way we asked you what kind of monster you were going to fight, but you refused to tell us. But we are going to fight tomorrow, isn't it time for you to give us a hint?"

After hearing the old man's question, the other people couldn't help but feel something in their hearts and all looked at Li Nantian.

They also had the same question. What kind of ferocious and rare species was this monster that was worth the Sixth Palace to go to such great lengths and plan for so long. An ordinary level six monster would not be worth it!
After hearing this, Li Nantian thought for a while and then said calmly:

"My fellow Taoists! It's not that I don't want to tell you the truth, but I have been ordered from above not to leak any news before we arrive at this island. But now that we are here, there is naturally no such restriction. I will tell you the truth! This time, what we in the Sixth Palace want to deal with is a 'baby carp beast', so we have to act with caution!" Upon hearing the words of "baby carp beast" Qing Suanzi and others, their expressions changed drastically and they cried out in surprise.

"Eh! It's actually this kind of monster. I remember that this monster will be released at the Monster Suppression Ceremony of Kuixian Island on the day of the Double Saints' Day. Why are they inviting us to help now? Are they going to capture it alive?"

Ye Xiaotian's face also changed when he heard this. If he could kill this monster, he would still have some chance of catching it, but capturing it alive would be much more difficult.

At the same time, he finally understood in his heart why the reward from Liulian Palace was so generous that they promised to give each of them a Dust-Reducing Pill.

The middle-aged scholar looked extremely unhappy and said to Li Nantian in a cold voice:
"You, the Sixth Palace, are going too far! Everyone knows that the infant carp beast is a natural water-based spirit beast with extremely powerful water-based magical powers. If it is level six, it is definitely not much worse than a level seven ordinary monster in the sea. You are actually asking me to take action under the name of a level six monster! Are you deliberately deceiving me?"

As the middle-aged scholar spoke, his face turned angry, as if he had been badly cheated.

The expressions of Qing Suanzi and others finally returned to normal, but they still showed dissatisfaction.

However, they were all solitary cultivators and did not dare to offend the Liulian Palace easily. They just watched in silence how Li Nantian would respond to the matter.

"Fellow Daoist Mao, what you said is wrong! How did our Sixth Palace deceive you? Although this infant carp beast is quite powerful, it is a genuine sixth-level monster. You can't force us to say that a sixth-level monster is a seventh-level monster!"

“Besides, since you knew that I was willing to use such a precious thing as the Dust Reducing Pill as a reward, you should have known that what we were going to deal with was definitely not an ordinary level six monster. Otherwise, how could I do business at a loss?” Li Nantian’s face darkened and he retorted bluntly.

After hearing this, everyone opened their mouths, not knowing how to refute.

They have all reached the peak of foundation building, the realm of false elixir, and are only one step away from entering the stage of forming elixir. From then on, they will swallow a golden elixir into their stomachs. My life is in my own hands, so since I knew that Liulian Palace was willing to give out a Dust-Reducing Pill, they all rushed over.

Of course, this does not mean that every one of them is stupid. Who can cultivate to the peak of foundation building without some ideas and skills?
Even though they knew there might be something fishy going on, they still came just for that Dust-Reducing Pill.

Although he was a little angry when he knew the truth of the matter, when he thought about it carefully, it seemed to be the case. Otherwise, why would Liulian Palace give each of them a Dust Reducing Pill?

Li Nantian took a quick glance and saw that everyone's faces were not very good, and there was some anger in them. He knew that he could not do so. What if these people did not contribute when the formation was formed?
If this were true, he would not be able to bear the consequences if something serious happened, so he immediately made another promise:

"Of course, I did this more to keep the secret of the baby carp beast. So before coming here, I had already received a promise from above. After this is successful, in addition to paying you a Dust Reducing Pill as agreed, I will also give each of you another 1,000 Spiritual Stones as compensation for keeping it secret in advance. I wonder if you are satisfied?"

After Li Nantian said this, everyone finally quieted down. Things had come to this point, and since they had already come here, they couldn't just withdraw and go home. Now that they could get 1000 more spirit stones, they didn't say anything more.

After everyone dispersed, they each found a place on a deserted island to recuperate and prepare for tomorrow's battle.

After Ye Xiaotian swallowed a pill, he realized that he had improved his condition to the best. At the same time, he closed his eyes slightly and felt the state of his incarnation. Only after he was sure that he had reached the designated area did he feel relieved.

The next day, it was still dark.

Li Nantian gathered several people together and flew to a sea area more than ten miles away from the island.

At the same time, thousands of miles away on the sea, a golden light and a yellow light were speeding towards the unknown island.

On the water surface one or two miles behind them, a large piece of white mist with a diameter of nearly 100 feet was rapidly chasing them at the same speed, close to the water surface, and the sound of a baby crying could be heard faintly. The sound was so desolate and extremely creepy.

"Elder Miao, use your flying sword to deliver the letter. See if they are ready?" A deep voice suddenly came from the rushing yellow light.

"Ok!"

Elder Miao in the golden light agreed without hesitation, then his figure flashed and he ran to the yellow light next to him, but at the same time the golden light on his body turned into a golden rainbow and disappeared in a flash.

The large patch of white fog at the back seemed to be stimulated by this scene. The baby's crying became sharper, and the sound of thunder gradually began to be heard, and it became louder and louder.

"Oh no! This beast is going to use the Water Thunder again. Brother Wang, please speed up!" Elder Miao's anxious voice was heard in the yellow light, as if he was afraid of the thunder behind him.

"Don't worry, the speed of my Qingying Sword is not slow!" As soon as the deep voice finished speaking, the green light instantly accelerated, and in a blink of an eye the distance between it and the white fog increased.

But the white fog seemed unwilling to give up. Amid the thunder and crying, its speed increased a little bit, and it actually drew a long white wave on the sea, with no end in sight.

Ye Xiaotian and others have already taken their positions and stood in front of the formation gates they are in charge of, and everyone has a large blue flag in their hands.

This flag is about two meters long, and it emits a blue glow all over, which is extremely dazzling.

The six cultivators in the late stage of foundation building all had solemn expressions. Each of them was more than a hundred feet apart, floating on the sea with their magic tools under their feet, forming a semicircular pocket.

A moment later, a golden light suddenly broke through the sky and landed on Li Nantian's hand, attracting the attention of several others.

"Everyone be careful, the baby carp beast is here soon! As soon as this monster enters the formation, block the gate immediately." Li Nantian seemed to have received some information. He shouted to the other people with a serious expression, and then released the golden light, allowing it to fly away into the sky again.

After hearing this, no one dared to be negligent. After all, it was a level six monster. If they were not careful, they would end up dead or alive.

"Is this the baby carp beast?"

"You look so ugly!"

Looking at the ferocious appearance of the beast, not knowing whether it had the confidence or not, Ye Xiaotian was not afraid at all, but instead made a complaint.
