Under Yuan Ming's gaze, he saw that the black sarcoma suddenly began to squirm rapidly, and black threads began to break out from it, which continued to lengthen and reach toward Yuan Ming's chest.
Yuan Ming's eyes suddenly widened. He would rather die than be parasitized by this ghost and make life worse than death.
While struggling, he found that although his arms were still tied, his wrists could still move, so he immediately twisted his wrists and threw them upwards.
The short bone spear that he had been holding in his hand immediately flew into the air and came to his eyes.
Yuan Ming didn't hesitate at all. He used all his strength and slammed into it.
The short bone spear was hit like a javelin and shot out, piercing into the black bear's ribs just before they closed.
"Roar……"
The black bear let out a roar, and the ribs that were closing stiffened, and the black threads extending towards Yuan Ming also slowly retreated.
Immediately afterwards, the black bear's chest slowly opened again, and the bone gun, which held Yuan Ming's last hope, was piercing the black bear's heart. It was only a millimeter away from the black tumor, but it failed to hit it in the end.
Black Bear's heart was still contracting, and the black threads rushed towards Yuan Ming's chest like crazy.
Yuan Ming stared closely, with an extremely nervous expression on his face.
Just before the black silk thread was about to touch his skin, the beating heart of the black bear stopped. The black tumor seemed to have encountered a ghost, squirming crazily and trying to escape from the heart of the black bear.
The black silk threads extending towards Yuan Ming also lost their strength in an instant, and all fell down lightly.
"Great, I caught up." Yuan Ming was so excited that he almost shed tears.
At the last moment of life and death, the poisonous fruits he had eaten yesterday saved his life.
Just before setting up the trap, Yuan Ming smashed all the fruits and applied the juice to all the bone spurs and the tips of the two short spears.
The previous attack was probably because it only hit the body of the black bear, and the toxicity did not affect the parasite. However, this time it directly affected the heart, and the melanoma was also directly affected by the toxicity and lost its power.
The vines wrapped around Yuan Ming's body suddenly fell off one after another, and the strange large flowers on the black bear's body also withered and turned into powder at a speed visible to the naked eye. His body and the black bear fell to the ground almost at the same time.
The black tumor parasitic on the heart of the black bear finally broke away and fell to the side. The color on it quickly faded, and soon turned into gray and white. It looked no different from an ordinary stone.
When Yuan Ming saw this, he didn't dare to delay at all. He quickly got up and came to the black bear's corpse.
While the black bear was not dead, he quickly took off the animal skin bag from his body, slit the black bear's neck with a bone gun, and collected its remaining blood.
After struggling for a while, all the black bear's blood was drained and only half of the sac was collected.
"The beasts come in different sizes and have varying amounts of blood. The man didn't say he wanted to collect all of them. These should be enough." Yuan Ming sealed the bag, raised it, shook it, and said to himself.
After that, he put the bag on his shoulder again, glanced at the bear corpse beside him, and his stomach growled again.
Facing such a large piece of animal meat, Yuan Ming was reluctant to throw it away, but when he thought of it being parasitized, he felt a little uncomfortable.
But the diaphragm in my heart could not offset the hunger in my stomach.
Just in case, Yuan Ming did not eat the black bear's meat raw this time. Instead, he found a pile of dead branches and leaves, imitated the ancients who drilled wood to make fire, and finally made a fire and roasted the bear meat.
During the barbecue, Yuan Ming came to the parasitic sarcoma and saw that it had turned into a gray-brown stone the size of a fist. It looked lifeless, so he couldn't help but poke it with a bone gun.
As a result, he discovered that the stone was extremely hard, completely different from the melanoma state.
Yuan Ming suddenly became interested.
He waved his hand towards the stone, but seeing no reaction from it, he reached closer and found that there was still no movement.
"Looks like he's completely dead."
Just when Yuan Ming was about to give up, a drop of animal blood suddenly fell from the animal skin pouch on his waist, and landed on the gray-brown stone with a "clack".
The originally lifeless corpse suddenly swelled, and its surface reactivated into the appearance of black sarcoma.
But soon, the power of that drop of blood was exhausted, and the black sarcoma shriveled up again, turning back into stone.
"This little thing is really interesting." Yuan Ming couldn't help but feel surprised.
He found some leaves, wrapped the stone and put it aside.
After the bear meat was roasted black and gave off a rich meaty aroma, Yuan Ming tore off a piece and started to eat it.
This meal was the most satisfying that Yuan Ming had eaten in recent days, but what puzzled him was that although the cooked animal meat was filling, it was not as filling as when he gnawed the bones yesterday.
a feeling of.
"Is it because the black bear's blood has been drained, so its qi and blood are greatly damaged? Or does it only have such an effect if it is eaten raw?" Yuan Ming was confused.
He raised his head and glanced at the sky, and found that it was already midday and west, so he stopped delaying, took the uneaten animal meat and the parasitic stone, and put them in the cave where he had previously hidden.
Then, based on the route he remembered, he looked in the direction of the huge stone boundary monument.
…
When Yuan Ming finally returned to the huge stone boundary monument in the evening, he did not see the figure of Elder Huhuo, only a colorful tiger lying next to the stone with its back to him.
Hearing Yuan Ming's return, the tiger suddenly turned around, sat up like a human, and looked towards him.
Yuan Ming also looked at him. Neither of them spoke, nor did they make any extra moves. They just separated a large distance from each other and stared at each other warily.
At this moment, a "rumbling" sound sounded.
Suddenly, a brown-black wild boar rushed out of the dense mountain forest and ran wildly towards this side.
Yuan Ming immediately clenched the short bone spear in his hand and became alert. The tiger also turned its head and its eyes widened.
The wild boar was covered in scars, its teeth were stained with blood, and the animal skin bag hanging on its body looked bulging.
When he got close to here, he also saw Yuan Ming and the tiger. Their speed quickly slowed down and finally stopped not far away.
Three half-human, half-animal guys surrounded the huge stone boundary monument with their horns bent, guarding each other and watching each other.
After waiting for a long time, no other figure appeared.
It wasn't until the sun was about to set that the huge falcon fluttered its wings and the figure of Elder Huhuo stood on its back.
After landing, Elder Huhuo patted the leather bag on his waist, and then a ray of blue light flew out, covering the majestic and domineering giant falcon, and then swept back into the bag and disappeared.
Even though it was the second time he saw it, Yuan Ming still felt that the scene in front of him was particularly magical.
"Give me the blood storage bag." Elder Huhuo glanced at Yuan Ming and the others and said.
The three of them understood and took off their animal skin bags and sent them over.
Elder Huhuo opened them one by one, brought them to his nose and mouth, smelled them, and examined them carefully.
When he saw that Yuan Ming's bag was only half full, he didn't say anything, but after opening it and smelling it, he couldn't help but frown.
"The black bear you killed was parasitized by the Blood Soul Vine?" Elder Huhuo looked at Yuan Ming and asked.
"What blood soul vine?" Yuan Ming looked confused when he heard this.
Elder Huhuo frowned, said nothing, waved his hand and put away all the blood storage bags.
"Not bad, three people passed the test." Elder Huhuo nodded, and then pointed out.
Three rays of white light shot out from his fingertips, landed on the chests of Yuan Ming and the others, and merged into their bodies in a flash.
Before Yuan Ming could react, he felt a warmth in his chest. Then the white ape skin on his body became soft, and the blood-colored veins like roots in the skin were pulled out of his body.
His muscles, internal organs.
Yuan Ming's face twisted, and his whole body was in severe pain, as if his entire human skin was being ripped off, which was much more painful than when he was covered in ape skin.
His whole body was trembling, and he couldn't help but bend his knees, and fell to his knees on the ground. He braced his arms on the ground, but gritted his teeth and did not cry out.
The situation of the other two people was similar, but they did not have Yuan Ming's perseverance and fell to the ground trembling and screaming miserably.
Fortunately, this process did not last long. After a few breaths, the animal skins on the three people were completely taken off and fell to the ground.
But Yuan Ming and the other three seemed to have spent several hours, sitting on the ground as if exhausted. Their skin was red and their clothes were riddled with holes.
The three of them collapsed on the ground, gasping for breath. It took them a while to recover, and they looked at the animal skin with complicated expressions.
After wearing animal skins, their strength increased greatly, but the pain was really severe.
"It will take a lot of pain for outsiders to perform the furry technique, but when you have mastered the magic and can perform it yourself, the situation will be much better." The voice of Elder Huhuo came, interrupting the three people's thoughts.
"Seriously?" The three of them were overjoyed when they heard this.
"Whether it is true or not, you will know after you try it! Next, I will teach you the blood energy method, so listen carefully!" Elder Huhuo said impatiently.
The three of them hurriedly sat down and listened attentively.
"The so-called 'blood energy method' is a technique that enhances blood energy through meditation and refining qi. Once you get started, you will truly enter the path of immortality that everyone envies. You will become a monk in the qi refining period. Once you have accumulated a certain amount of
With magic power, you can perform the fur-clothing technique. The formula is as follows, there is fire in the lungs of the earth, enters from the quiet spring, rises into the abdomen, and shines like a torch..." Elder Huhuo said slowly.
The entire Blood Qi Method formula is two to three hundred words long, and the content is quite convoluted and difficult to understand, but Yuan Ming found that he could easily remember it word for word after listening to it once.
"My memory is so good." He was quite surprised, and even more delighted.
The other two people couldn't help scratching their heads and scratching their heads, their faces full of anxiety, obviously they didn't remember it.
"Elder Huhuo, can you say it again?" The wild boar-clad beast slave hesitated for a moment and then begged.
"I will only say it one last time." Elder Huhuo glanced at the man indifferently and recited the formula of the blood and energy method again.
The two of them hurriedly memorized it carefully, and finally managed to remember it this time.
