Chapter 19 He is still a teenager
Facing Ning Zhanji's sudden test, the others looked at each other in shock.
Ning Zhuo guessed: "These spiritual plants are very young and have very low value. Naturally, they are not picked for the spiritual plants themselves. I think it should be to maintain this passage and clean it deliberately. With spiritual plants, spiritual beasts will be attracted." , monsters. If our clan wants to use this passage for a long time, we must guard against it."
"Not bad." Ning Zhanji nodded, "The family school has been effective in training you."
"Choose one of these spiritual plants as a reward for the correct answer."
"As for which one you can choose, it all depends on your eyesight."
Ning Zhuo did not hesitate. He stretched out his hand and took out a fire crystal grass, and then said thank you: "Thank you, Mr. Ning Zhanji! I have done some research on the herbal medicine market. Among the spiritual plants, this fire crystal grass has the best appearance and the best price." It must be the highest.”
Ning Zhanji nodded, then shook his head: "It's not bad if you choose the one with the higher market price."
"But if I were you, I'd choose the ginseng."
"Because as members of the Ning family, we practice ice-based techniques, and spiritual plants like Fire Crystal Grass are not suitable for our physique. But Jin Ginseng is, and it can warm and nourish our physical bodies."
"You are still young, don't blindly focus on money. You must know that investing in yourself is the best way to succeed."
"Once you complete the foundation building stage, you will have a different life situation."
When Ning Zhuo heard this, he showed an awe-inspiring expression.
Ning Zhanji took the opportunity to teach: "Excellent monks are those who dare to fight. You must fully estimate the ratio between risks and benefits. If you join the war hall and are assigned to guard here, you can harvest several spiritual plants every day. There is also the protection of temporary camps. This is a rare opportunity.”
“Many times, rejecting risks means rejecting opportunities.”
Ning Zhuo showed signs of excitement.
This change of expression fell in the eyes of Ning Zhanji, who chuckled in his heart: "He is a young man after all..."
"Sir, I want to station here." Ning Yong shouted.
Ning Jianji chuckled: "Newcomers, you should go through the special training first."
The Ning family monk group entered an underground hall.
This is obviously a frontline position specially built by the Ning family.
There are two monks from the Ning family stationed in the hall.
The stationed monks quickly responded.
Ning Zhanji ordered a temporary rest, and he stood in the center of the underground hall, arousing his magic power and stroking his fingers.
Immediately, complex formations appeared on the cave wall above the hall.
In the center of the formation pattern, a formation disk the size of a millstone slowly descended and finally landed in front of Ning Fighter.
Ning Fighter put his hands on the array plate, communicated with his spiritual consciousness, and quickly read the recorded information in the array plate. Therefore, in just a few breaths, he knew everything that happened in this frontline camp.
After doing this, he took out the spiritual stones from his money bag, took out the spiritual stones that had completely turned into gray stone, or mostly dimmed, and replaced them all.
After a short rest, the Ning family monk group continued to set off.
On the way, Ning Zhuo passed a total of three forward camps.
Some are being repaired, while others are just passing by.
As everyone gradually goes deeper into the volcano, the threat gradually increases.
The number of monsters has increased significantly.
There are tinder rats the size of paws, a stone head that can fly in the air - the red rock demon head, and a flame-walking lizard.
"Stop!" Ning Fighter kept taking the lead, suddenly raised his hand and stopped in place.
The monks quickly stood still, changed from movement to silence, and issued orders and prohibitions, showing their excellent tactical qualities.
Ning Fighter lowered his head and carefully inspected a small ditch in front of him.
He stretched out his fingers and gently touched the concave surface of the small groove. The surface is smooth and slightly exudes a moist light like glass.
"It's a fire-walking snake. It should be more than a hundred years old. It's a foundation-building level monster." Ning Zhanji finished the introduction and ordered the entire army to be on alert.
Ning Yong was carefree and excited: "Have we finally met? With Master Ning Zhanji here, are you still afraid of little monsters?"
Ning Chen analyzed: "Except for a few of us newcomers, we have a total of six people in the foundation building stage, and the others are all high-level monks in the Qi Refining stage."
"It's just a foundation-building level monster."
Ning Zhuo was secretly vigilant.
He knew in his heart that the physical talents of monsters often far exceeded that of human monks. Moreover, this is the Red Flame Demon Melting Cave. If a protracted battle really breaks out, it is likely to attract other demonic beasts to come and besiege it.
The Ning family monk group continued to move forward.
But this time, their pace slowed down significantly, and the atmosphere in the team changed.
Not long after, they discovered the fire-walking snake.
The fire-walking snake has a slender body, and its whole body is emitting dazzling firelight. The whole snake is like a long burning flame.
In fact, it is a spirit made from flames, and does not have the flesh and blood of a monster in the conventional sense.
Fire-walking snakes are fierce and fast. They swim among rocks and often melt a snake path on the surface of the rocks.
Just now, Ning Fighter discovered the snake passage and judged it from the width of the snake passage and the extent of the concave surface being grilled.
Now, they met the real owner and found that Ning Zhanji's judgment was not wrong at all.
This is a foundation-building level monster.
The Ning family monks began to fight.
First, some monks threw out formation disks and temporarily set up formations to contain everyone's aura.
Then, a large number of monks began to brew spells.
Soon after, water arrows were shot at the fire-walking snake.
The Fire Snake was first hit by a wave of concentrated fire, and only reacted after its flames were mostly shrunk.
The Fire Snake pounced on the Ning family monks with a fierce momentum.
Two strong men rushed out from the Ning family monks, casting various spells, and fought against the Fire Snake, dragging it to the spot.
The other monks cast spells again, on the one hand to bless the melee monks, and on the other hand to actively kill the Fire Snake.
The Fire Snake's two fists could not beat four hands, and soon it was hit by the water and ice spells, and its body was reduced by one third.
Knowing that it was no match, the Fire Snake wanted to escape.
Ning Zhanji's body was as fast as lightning, intercepting the Fire Snake. He clapped his hands and cast two palm prints condensed from frost.
The palm prints flew in the air, and the cold air was overflowing. The Fire Snake was shrouded and its movements were slowed down a bit.
Bang bang.
The two sounds almost overlapped, and the frost palm prints directly killed the Fire Snake.
A beautiful surprise attack!
Ning Yong's eyes lit up, and he became more and more excited: "This is Master Ning Zhanji!"
In his words, he revealed a very strong yearning and admiration.
Ning Zhuo nodded repeatedly, with a look similar to Ning Yong, but secretly wondered: "In this volcano, the fire spirit is extremely rich, and using frost spells is thankless, why are they all using it?"
After the next few battles to hunt monsters, Ning Zhuo gradually understood.
It turned out that this was Ning Zhanji consciously training his troops.
When encountering weaker monsters and goblins, they used spells to fight and train their cooperation with each other.
When encountering powerful monsters, the Ning family monks used various magic weapons, and Ning Zhanji took the lead in attacking.
In order to avoid more trouble, the Ning family monks all focused on quick battles and tried to end the battle in the shortest time.
"There is a fire-melting demon ape ahead!" Suddenly, the monk in charge of reconnaissance in the team shouted a warning.
The whole team was stagnant.
Adult Fire Fusion Demon Apes are very difficult to deal with. One demon ape can fight against ten foundation-building cultivators.
Obviously, the demon apes that can reach here are unlikely to be juveniles.
Even Ning Zhanji frowned.
"Wait a minute, the demon ape's condition seems to be wrong." The scout monk closed his eyes, and the headband on his head was emitting a faint light.
"It seems to be dead?!" The scout monk opened his eyes, a little unbelievable.
