Chapter 153: The Other Side of the Cave
It took Qin Ziling a while to suppress the excitement in his heart. His figure flashed and he quickly left the cave.
The next moment, in the valley, by the rushing stream.
One person, one zombie.
A bright moon hangs over the valley.
The moonlight spilled into the valley like mercury, and also fell on the four huge bodies covered with a layer of silver leather armor, reflecting a little cold metallic luster.
"Tsk tsk!" Qin Ziling couldn't hide his excitement as he circled around the four poems, occasionally reaching out to knock on them.
"Dang! Ding! Ding!" Every time the hammer struck, the sound of hammering iron could be heard in the valley.
The sound was particularly pleasant to Qin Ziling's ears.
"Whatever you think will come true! With the help of the four prime ministers, I should be able to pass through the cave and explore the other side. If I can kill some second- and third-grade exotic beasts, not only will I have hope of breaking through my physical body, but Shao E will also have a great hope of breaking through to the Huajin realm."
Qin Ziling played four songs for a while before stopping and looking towards the cliff in front of him with longing.
From Qin Ziling's perspective, there were still continuous high mountains and steep hills behind the cliff, but that was already the depths of the Wuyang Mountains, where powerful and strange beasts were said to be active.
Ever since Qin Ziling chose to practice here, he has occasionally thought about going through the cave to explore the other side, but he did not dare to take too much risk.
After all, his current strength in head-on combat is actually only comparable to that of a Hua Jin martial artist. The previous few killings looked so neat and cool, but in fact, it was all due to his body skills and deliberate planning.
But to hunt and kill exotic beasts, you need to fight head-on and it is difficult to use any tricks.
In this case, Qin Ziling's strength would be too weak and too risky to enter the depths of Wuyang Mountain.
But now it is different. The effect of the Yin Sha Pearl is surprisingly good. After the four heads consumed and refined the Yin Sha Pearl, all their injuries were gone and they returned to the Silver Corpse realm. Moreover, their skills have become more profound, and it seems that they are not far from the intermediate Silver Corpse.
The most important thing is that all four songs can fly!
If he really encountered danger, Qin Ziling could just ride on his four-horned horse and run away. If he was really unlucky and happened to encounter a strange bird in the air, I thought that with the strength of the Silver Corpse, as .
Soon, Qin Ziling withdrew his gaze, caught two silver-bearded fish from the stream and processed them, then returned to the cave, preparing to have a delicious midnight snack for himself and drink some of the twenty-year-old Jinyu wine he got from Xiao Qing to celebrate himself, and then set off to explore the other end of the cave tomorrow morning.
The next day, the sun was shining brightly and the weather was good.
Qin Ziling advanced cautiously in the dark cave passage. A hundred meters ahead of him, Yuan Da was leading the way.
This distance is just right, and it won't be too tiring to operate, and he will have time to react if anything happens.
The passage was much longer than Qin Ziling had imagined, with ups and downs, and seemed to run through several rolling mountains.
After walking and stopping carefully for about two hours, Qin Ziling pushed aside the green vines that covered the exit.
When the green vines are parted, the breeze blows on your face, feeling indescribably fresh.
What appeared before Qin Ziling's eyes were white clouds floating in front of his eyes and above his head, as if they were within reach.
Between the white clouds and under the blue sky, seven or eight birds were circling in the air. Below them was a lake of thirty or forty miles in radius. Beside were swamp wetlands, and beyond them were rolling tall mountains.
The entrance of the cave where he was was about a thousand meters above the ground, and below was a green swamp wetland.
Qin Ziling was gathering his breath and hiding at the entrance of the cave, quietly observing the surroundings, when suddenly a bird circling in the air swooped down from the sky at lightning speed.
Qin Ziling had sharp eyesight and saw it very clearly.
It was a bird with wings spread out like the four heads, about ten meters long.
Its claws are black, flashing a dazzling and cold black light in the sunlight, while its wings are red, spreading out in the sunlight like a burning flame.
The bird swooped down suddenly at such a speed that it looked like a flaming meteorite falling.
"Blood Goshawk!" A picture and name that he had seen before suddenly flashed through Qin Ziling's mind, and his heart trembled slightly.
The Xiao family has a collection of illustrated materials on exotic birds and beasts.
Qin Ziling had once looked through it through Xiao Qing.
This blood goshawk is a third-grade exotic bird with powerful claws and is extremely ferocious.
"No wonder Xiao Qing said that even the great martial arts masters of bone refining and even martial arts masters of the organ refining realm are unwilling to easily enter the depths of Wuyang Mountain. I just emerged and I saw a third-grade exotic bird!
A third-grade exotic bird poses no threat to a martial arts master, but it has air superiority. If it were to swoop down from the sky unexpectedly, it would pose a considerable threat to the life of a bone-refining master!
If there were three or five of them, even a slightly weaker bone-refining master would be torn into pieces by their sharp claws!"
Just as Qin Ziling was secretly frightened, the blood goshawk's claws had already landed on the lake. Then, with a "splash", water splashed everywhere. The blood goshawk flapped its wings violently and soared into the sky. In its claws, it was holding a struggling fish the size of a piglet.
This fish has a snake's head, a red body, and four sharp claws underneath.
"Red snake fish!" Qin Ziling exclaimed secretly as he looked at the strange fish under the claws of the blood eagle.
Red snake fish, a first-class exotic beast.
"It turns out that opportunities and risks coexist! Although the depths of the Wuyang Mountains are full of dangers, they are also a huge treasure! Exotic beasts that are rarely seen in the outer areas seem to be everywhere here."
Qin Ziling's heart was burning with excitement as he watched the blood hawk holding the red snake fish in its sharp claws and gradually flying away, probably looking for a place to slowly enjoy the delicious food.
"Ao!" Just as Qin Ziling's heart was burning with anger, suddenly, a roar of some unknown beast came from the depths of the swamp in the distance, near the direction of the southern mountains.
Then, a powerful aura that made him feel palpitations even from a long distance rose into the sky from afar, as if a peerless ferocious beast had awakened from its slumber.
There was a huge commotion in the distant mountains, forests, swamps and grasslands, and many birds and animals were running around in panic.
Qin Ziling shuddered all over, and the heat in his heart was extinguished at an instant. He subconsciously shrank his head back and hid behind the green vines.
"What level of beast is this, with such a formidable aura?
It should be at least rank five. A rank four exotic beast is equivalent to a bone refining great martial artist. Xiao Qing's current strength is equivalent to an early great martial artist. Even a rank four upper-level exotic beast would never have such an imposing aura!
At least five-grade. If I were to hunt here, it would be like snatching food from a tiger's mouth. No wonder a powerful beast like the Eight Desolate Green Python would run far away even to hatch an egg. This place is really dangerous!" Qin Ziling's eyes flashed with hesitation, and he had already backed out in his heart.
He doesn't want to die young!
However, when Qin Ziling's gaze fell on the birds circling in the air and the lake below, and the image of the red-blooded snake under the claws of the blood eagle flashed through his mind, the extinguished desire in his heart began to burn again.
Even though it was his first time entering the Wuyang Mountain Range, he knew that this place should be a fertile land where exotic birds and beasts lived.
"Fortune and honor are sought in danger! Since you have decided to go deep into the Wuyang Mountains to hunt, how can you give up halfway just because you smell some danger? How can you achieve great things if you are too cautious and timid?
Besides, I have the power of spirits, three zombies, one of which is a flying silver zombie, and this perfect hiding place. I don't know how much better the conditions are than for other hunters who go into the mountains! As long as I'm careful and don't be too greedy, there shouldn't be any problem."
Soon, Qin Ziling's eyes showed a determined look.
Then, Qin Ziling pushed aside the green vines again and his eyes fell on the birds circling in the air.
Just now, he hadn't had time to carefully check what kinds of birds were circling in the air.
After checking, Qin Ziling discovered that among the birds circling in the air, there were four ordinary birds of prey, one was an unknown exotic bird that should be of the first grade, and the other had black wings with iron claws, which was actually the Black-winged Water Stork.
"First, let's practice with these two exotic birds, and also test the speed and combat effectiveness of the four heads in the air."
After Qin Ziling saw the birds circling in the air clearly, he looked around carefully and confirmed that there should be no powerful beasts lurking in the area within a few miles of where he was hiding. Then he retreated back into the cave and summoned the Four Heads and the Ape.
Qin Ziling leaped onto the four heads, then his soul left his body and flew out of the cave.
Three or five miles away from the cave entrance, four birds of prey circling above the lake suddenly went crazy and rushed towards the black-winged water stork.
The black-winged stork is a rare bird. How could it tolerate being suddenly attacked by four birds of prey?
With a "hiss", the black-winged stork's sharp claws grabbed a bird of prey at once, and with a pull, it tore the bird of prey into two halves. Then, it still refused to give up, and like a black lightning, it swooped down towards the other three birds of prey that were rapidly fleeing towards the cave.
In a blink of an eye, the black-winged stork rushed to a distance of two or three hundred meters from the cave entrance.
Just at this moment, a gust of cold wind blew into the cave, and Qin Ziling, who was riding on the four heads, suddenly opened his eyes.
Then, a silver light flashed out from the cave.
"Chirp!" The black-winged water stork that was rushing forward seemed to sense the breath of danger and let out a sharp cry. Its wings tilted in the air, trying to change direction.
But it's too late!
The four horses carrying Qin Ziling suddenly fell towards it like a silver lightning.
The silver claws immediately grabbed the black-winged stork, just like an eagle grabbing a chick.
"Chirp!" The black-winged water stork made another shrill cry.
Along with the shrill cry, a silver lightning flashed into the cave, and the black-winged stork disappeared without a trace, as if nothing had happened.
