Chapter 630: Divine Beast Forest
The rolling mountains are winding and undulating, and between the high and low hills are patches of green of different colors, and from a distance, the heavens and the earth are all this kind of recklessness.
As the field of vision continued to shrink and closer, it was gradually discovered that in the extremely dangerous place on the periphery of these mountains, there was a city made of bluestone standing proudly.
On both sides of it are tall and majestic hills, and there is a distance of about 100 zhang between the city and the hills, and this gap is not a flat ground, but a bottomless abyss!
The white clouds are ethereal, and the mountain wind is gusting, which makes people shudder.
The city is not exquisitely built, but it is tall and majestic, and the rugged style and the surrounding precipitous situation give people a sense of wordless oppression.
Around it, there were many monks, either in a hurry, or with joy on their faces, or with their heads down.
Coming and going constantly in and out of the city, or into the boundless forests in the south, or out of the city towards the relatively gentle mountains and forests in the north.
From a distance, the city looked like a huge beehive, and the many monks, like dense and busy bees, kept going in and out of the hive.
The endless forest in the distance has a nice name, called the Divine Beast Forest, to put it bluntly, those places are the territory ruled by demon beasts.
This world is very large, and there are many species living in the world, and although human monks are powerful, it is impossible for them to bring all the places under their rule.
If there is only one kind of creature left in this world, this will be an extremely terrifying time, and it will be chilling to think about!
The monk's demand for all kinds of alchemy and other materials for refining and alchemy is always endless, and many kinds of materials are obtained from demon beasts, so there will inevitably be conflicts between people and demon beasts.
As early as ancient times, the beast king led the beast to eat people, poisoning thousands of miles, and the lives of the world were devastated, such things often happened, and human beings were naturally not to be outdone.
Although in the beginning, humans were not the opponents of demon beasts, but with the development of time, the balance of war slowly tilted in favor of humans.
Not only because people have an advantage in wisdom that demon beasts can't match, but also because human reproduction ability is too strong.
Especially after defending oneself by force and solving the problem of food and clothing, the growth of the population has shown an explosive pattern.
After an unknown number of years of fighting between humans and monsters, both sides realized that it would be bad for anyone to go on like this, so they slowly began to think of a way, signed a treaty, and humans and monsters began to live in peace.
Although absolute peace and quiet are impossible, the scene of large-scale human-beast fighting like before has rarely happened.
The development of human monks is indispensable to these things such as demon beasts, so when the treaty was signed, an area was also demarcated on the periphery of the Divine Beast Forest, allowing human monks to go in and capture demon beasts, as long as it was not too excessive, the strong people in the Divine Beast Forest would not be ignored.
Of course, it is also normal for a small range of demon beasts to impact the gathering area of human monks, and for the high-level, these are all inconsequential small fights.
It is precisely because of these treaties that many cities have appeared at the junction of human monks and the sacred beast forest.
The original purpose was to resist the infestation of low-level monsters on humans, and over time, many professions slowly spawned in these places.
For example, mercenaries who specialize in hunting monsters as their main means of livelihood.
Of course, here, the industry that is more prosperous than the rest of the industry is the industry related to monsters.
This place has all kinds of monster materials.
Mo Qing was now sitting in a large trading house in the city called Willow City.
At this time, it had been seven or eight years since he left Huangshazhou.
After leaving Huangshazhou over the years, he began to consciously look for the traces of fox monsters, but unfortunately, there was not much gain.
Later, I heard about the existence of the Divine Beast Forest, and after thinking about it for a while, I rushed here.
If there is still a place in this world where you can find a suitable fox Inner Dan, then it must be the Divine Beast Deep Forest.
Xiliu City was the first city he arrived at near the Divine Beast Forest, and it really lived up to its name, and if you find a merchant who does demon beast business, you can see a dazzling array of goods.
There are many strange monster materials, Mo Qing is even more unheard of, which has opened his eyes.
But it's a pity that there are few fox demon beasts found in it, and even if one or two are occasionally found, they are all low-level foxes, and they have not reached the point of condensing the inner pill at all.
Looking at the shopkeeper opposite and shaking his head slightly, Mo Qing had no choice but to smile bitterly.
It seems that this thing is far from being as simple as I imagined! Even if I get here, it will not be smooth to find it.
"Fellow Daoist, why are these fox demon beasts so rare? It is said that there is a forest of divine beasts guarding here, so there should be no shortage of these things. ”
Mo Qing finally couldn't help it and asked the doubts in his heart.
The old man also smiled bitterly, then looked at Mo Qing and asked, "It's the first time for Daoyou to come to us, right?"
Mo Qing was slightly stunned, could it be that there was any reason for the thing he asked just now?
He nodded quietly and said, "It's indeed the first time I've come here, and I'd like to ask Daoist friends to explain a thing or two." ”
The shopkeeper nodded, smiled and said, "That's right, people who have lived here for a long time generally know something about this." There are not a lot of fox monsters, but they can't be beaten.
There are also ethnic levels in the demon beasts, such as the fox demon beast that the Taoist friend wants to find early.
I heard that in their clan, there are many powerful demon beasts, and the corresponding status is high, so most of them live in the interior of the Divine Beast Forest, and rarely appear in the periphery of the Divine Beast Forest.
Even if there are occasional appearances, they are all low-level existences.
There are a lot of demon beasts in the Divine Beast Forest, but there are some demon beasts with relatively small forces on the periphery......"
With the old man's narration, Mo Qing was able to solve the doubts in his heart, no wonder it would be like this, he rarely encountered fox demon beasts, it turned out that this was still for such a reason.
Originally, I thought that the demon beasts were just a group of unorganized beings who were stronger than ordinary beasts, but I didn't expect that there were so many Dao Dao inside.
Whether it was born like this, or whether it was later in contact with more people, I don't understand.
However, thinking that the higher the strength, the higher the wisdom, and when it came to the high-level demon beasts that were no different from human monks, Mo Qing no longer bothered about this matter......
