The golden brick smashed the scorpion's head into pieces.
Poisonous insects had a long life force, and the scorpion's body was still twitching on the ground, leaving deep ditches on the ground with its long legs.
"This is a Chilly Wind Scorpion, but the most common ones are only three meters long, which is quite hard to deal with." Ji Hao squatted aside, looking at the sturdy young man, who was holding a bronze dagger and swiftly cutting open the scorpion's carapace. "This is the first time I've seen a Chilly Wind Scorpion that can grow to such a large size."
"It's a spirit." The sturdy young man quickly opened the carapace of the scorpion, exposing the light silver scorpion meat inside.
"Don't waste it!" Ji Hao's saliva immediately flowed out of his mouth. Ji Hao couldn't even fight back against the chilly wind and sand spewed out by this scorpion, which meant that it was as powerful as a Senior Magus, and its meat could be a great tonic for Ji Hao.
Seeing that the sturdy young man was going to throw the scorpion meat away, Ji Hao hurriedly jumped onto the big banyan tree, picked hundreds of square leaves, and spread them on the ground. The sturdy young man chuckled, cut the scorpion meat piece by piece, and put them neatly on the leaves.
Qing Ying came over with tens of warriors, who were scattered around the scorpion. Only Qing Ying curiously walked up to the scorpion, pulled out a dagger, and made a few cuts on the scorpion's carapace.
Sparks flew out, Qing Ying's dagger was badly worn, but not even a scratch was left on the scorpion's carapace.
Ji Hao couldn't help but praise, "What a hard carapace, good material, if it's made into an armor, it would be incomparably strong."
The sturdy young man laughed, nodded to Ji Hao, and said gently, "My little friend, I was too careless just now, and almost let this evil creature hurt you. Since my little friend has such thoughts, let me make this carapace into an armor, and give it to you to protect yourself. "
While talking and laughing, the sturdy young man had already cut a few long legs of the scorpion. Thirty-six fist-sized, transparent beads rolled out from the scorpion's long legs. Every single bead was entirely green. Being blown by the morning breeze, these beads actually started spinning in the air.
"Eh?" Qing Ying yelled in surprise, "Chilly Wind Scorpions can grow these beads? Aiya, I've never seen it before. Even the most knowledgeable elders in the clan have never told us about such a thing! "
"No matter how big an ordinary Yin Wind Scorpion's body is, it's still an ordinary poisonous insect. Naturally, it wouldn't have this kind of Scorpion Dragon Pearl." The tall and sturdy young man picked up these beads and put them into his sleeves one by one, then he said to Qing Ying with a smile, "This Chilling Wind Scorpion is different, it has already become a spirit. It has absorbed the essence of the sun and the moon, seizing the fortune of the heaven and the earth, so its body naturally nurtured a wisp of mystery, which is why it has these thirty-six Scorpion Dragon Beads."
"What are these beads for?" Ji Hao curiously looked at the sturdy young man.
The sturdy young man put those beads back into his pocket, then smilingly nodded to Ji Hao and said in a free and easy tone, "My name is Po, I am an ascetic. I travel around the world, and the Southern Wasteland is the last stop of my ascetic journey."
"I have traveled all over the Middle Earth, the Eastern Wasteland, the Northern Wasteland and the Western Wasteland. I have been observing the starry sky, and I have learned something from time to time. I have also remembered that the ancient heaven once had a great magic formation, named 'Life and Death Illusion Magic Formation'. Therefore, I wanted to imitate the movement of the stars and forge a treasure. This treasure requires thirty-six thousand Scorpion Dragon Pearls, and these are the last thirty-six. Finally, I have collected all of them. "
Ji Hao clicked his tongue and stared at Po in shock.
In order to verify his own understanding, he had collected thirty-six thousand Scorpion Dragon Pearls to forge a treasure, which meant that he had to kill a whole thousand Senior Magi level scorpions to collect all of them!
How many places had Po been to to collect so many Scorpion Dragon Pearls?
How rich was this ancient Barren continent, that it could have so many Chilly Wind Scorpions hiding in the mountains?
"A thousand Chilly Wind Scorpions, you are so patient!" Ji Hao clicked his tongue and sighed sincerely.
"I have wasted a lot of time." Po scratched his own head, gave a simple and honest smile and said, "My Shifu also said that I have wasted a lot of time on cultivation. If I hadn't been obsessed with making all kinds of treasures, I would have been much more powerful than I am now. But if I didn't make treasures and only focused on cultivation, what's the fun in that? "
Ji Hao couldn't help but give Po a thumbs-up. What Po said was quite reasonable.
Cultivation was a process of gradually polishing one's heart and mind, making it fit the nature. Po followed his heart and indulged in making all kinds of treasures. One could say that he had been obsessed with nothing, but wasn't this also a cultivation method?
Warriors were carrying the scorpion meat on their shoulders, singing a Southern Wasteland folk song while leading the way. Ji Hao was dragging the empty shell of the scorpion, while talking with Po enthusiastically, all the way to the Cold Stream Valley.
As a cultivator who had been to countless places, Po's knowledge was amazingly rich. The sceneries that he had described were all unimaginable in the Southern Wasteland. For example, the boundless ocean in the Eastern Wasteland, the vast Northern Wasteland, the barren Western Wasteland, and the bustling Middle Earth.
"Hao, my little friend, the world is so vast, you have to go out more, so that you can live up to the great body that the world has given me." Po was a forthright, straightforward, and extremely sunny person. Within this short period of time, he had already regarded Ji Hao as a good friend.
"When I have the chance, I will definitely go out of the Southern Wasteland." Ji Hao said to Po seriously, "I also want to see what this world looks like … eh, Po, you said that the Middle Earth is bustling, what does it look like now?"
Po frowned, shook his head and said, "Last time when I passed by the Middle Earth, the war was still going on. Every day, tens of thousands of people would be robbed, countless women would be raped, and countless children would be enslaved or killed."
Pursing his lips, Po continued in a low voice, "Po's power is limited. I have tried my best to save people, but I can't save all the people in the world. In this world, Po is nothing but an insignificant ascetic. Saving the world is not something that Po, who is so weak, can undertake. "
"The Middle Earth, I've heard about it, it's the largest and most magnificent area in the world!" Said Qing Ying curiously, "Po, according to what you said, the Middle Earth is also chaotic, no different from our Southern Wasteland!"
"Even more chaotic than the Southern Wasteland!" Po looked at Qing Ying seriously and said, "The Southern Wasteland … can be counted as a very peaceful and peaceful place."
Just now, Ji Hao had fought against the Blood Fang and the Black Water Serpent Clan, and lost so many people. How could the Southern Wasteland, which was so chaotic, still be a peaceful place?
Ji Hao couldn't help but feel his blood boiling. He couldn't wait to go to the Middle Earth and see what kind of world it was.
Ji Hao arrived at the Cold Stream Valley. From a long distance, Ji Hao raised his head and whistled towards the sky, then yelled, "Abba, Amma, there are honored guests from the outside. Get some wine, grill some meat, and serve them. "
Pausing for a second, Ji Hao smiled and said, "Where are the honored guests from the Southern Wasteland?"
A long and resonant bone horn sounded, a group of Fire Crow Clan's warriors opened the heavy gate on the fence wall, lined up and walked out.
