A few days later, deep inside Shiwanda Mountain, in a dense mountain forest.
A leopard-like ferocious beast with money patterns all over its body had a frightened face, running wildly on all fours in the forest, and roaring with anger from time to time.
This leopard was two to three feet long, with a smooth body shape and a powerful aura. It scared away all the birds, insects and ants wherever it passed. It was a second-level ferocious beast.
There were no wounds on the leopard's body, but blood was constantly dripping from the corners of its mouth.
No matter how the beast ran and fled, more and more blood flowed from its mouth, its speed slowed down rapidly, and it soon fell to the ground and stopped moving.
In a patch of grass two hundred feet away, the air trembled slightly, and a green figure slowly emerged, it was Yuan Ming.
He was wearing a gray cloak given by Xiying. The cloak was now a green color, completely blending in with the surrounding environment.
Yuan Ming moved forward quickly and soon came to the corpse of the leopard beast.
This leopard is called the Golden Leopard. It is a second-level low-level ferocious beast. Its combat power is comparable to that of a monk in the early stage of foundation building. However, Yuan Ming just controlled the black needle weapon from a distance and sneak attacked the beast's belly, piercing the belly and drilling into it.
Inside the body, the leopard's heart, liver, intestines and lungs were torn apart and riddled with holes.
This golden leopard couldn't even find the enemy, so it died here in a daze.
Yuan Ming raised his hand and made a move, and the black needle weapon flew out of the golden leopard's mouth and fell into his hand.
Looking at the fine, high-grade magic weapon in his hand, he nodded with satisfaction and put it away.
He spent several days refining the object to make it more suitable for him. After this attempt, it did meet his expectations.
Yuan Ming took out the Hanxing Sword and carefully peeled off the golden leopard's skin.
The golden leopard is a ferocious beast of the metal type. Its skin contains abundant metallic spiritual power. It is extremely strong yet light and soft. It can be used to refine armor-type magic weapons and is valuable.
As for other parts of the leopard's body, they are of little value.
Yuan Ming put away the leopard skin and patted the other spirit beast bag.
The black toad spirit beast jumped out and sensed the golden leopard's abundant vitality. The black toad's eyes showed excitement and immediately shot out several purple and black demon vines, which quickly sucked up the golden leopard's corpse.
The demonic power contained in the skin and flesh of the golden leopard is very different from that of the black toad. The black toad's aura did not increase much and ran back to Yuan Ming lazily.
Yuan Ming frowned slightly. The Black Toad Spirit Beast had always been full of energy and had never been so lazy.
He communicated with it through the beast control runes engraved on the Black Toad's sea of consciousness, but he couldn't detect anything, so he ignored it and put it into the spirit beast bag.
Yuan Ming then summoned the Qingyun Crane and flew towards the outside of Shiwanda Mountain instead of continuing to hunt beasts here.
Two days later, Yuan Ming arrived outside the Snake King Valley.
After experiencing the destruction of Biluo Cave and facing powerful monks and beasts, he deeply felt his own insignificance, but it also further opened his horizons.
Nowadays, he is more and more eager to improve his cultivation. He is almost ready to prepare now. If he can break through the bottleneck in one fell swoop, his cultivation strength will make a qualitative leap.
When he returns to Dajin, he will have to settle accounts with some people.
It would take a long time to break through the foundation building period, and he had to find a safe and secluded place. After thinking about it, he found that among the places he had been to, the underground passage in the Snake King Valley was the most secluded and safe place, and it was a good place for retreat.
Although the valley is filled with strong miasma, it is very thin deep underground. Coupled with the effect of the obstacle-avoiding beads, it will not affect your practice.
Yuan Ming released three soul crows and thoroughly explored the Snake King Valley. After confirming that no one had come, he entered the valley and soon came to the underground passage under the Snake King Cave. He waved to summon
Call out the Black Toad.
As soon as the black toad landed, his eyes immediately showed excitement and he ran towards the depths of the passage.
Yuan Ming did not call him back, and allowed the black toad to disappear into the darkness ahead.
He came here to retreat, not only because it was quiet here, but also because Black Toad had greatly improved his strength after absorbing the strange black energy in the ancient tomb. He planned to continue letting Black Toad absorb it to see how far it could improve.
Hei Chan is so energetic at the moment, and it seems that there is nothing serious. The previous laziness should be accidental.
Yuan Ming gathered his thoughts, took out the four-square spirit-sealing talisman and stuck it on the four stone walls, opening a spiritual barrier to completely isolate the thin miasma.
He sat down cross-legged, took out a Jinhua Dan, drank it, and refined it.
Time passed, and more than a month passed quickly. In the underground passage, Yuan Ming's body suddenly glowed with green light, and powerful aura surged in all directions, causing the barrier formed by the four-way sealing talisman to tremble.
He opened his eyes and showed a hint of joy.
After a lot of hard work and the assistance of Jinhua Dan, Jiuyuan Jue finally broke through again and reached the thirteenth level of Qi refining.
There was not much Jinhua Dan left, but now it is completely eaten up. Fortunately, the cultivation level has been broken through. Baidu search Soquwu.
The thirteenth level of Qi refining is very different from the previous twelve levels of Qi refining. The mana in the Dantian is thicker and has a faint tendency to condense into liquid.
The symbol of a monk in the foundation building stage is the liquefaction of mana. The Nine Yuan Jue has been cultivated to the thirteenth level, which will indeed have a great auxiliary effect on advanced foundation building.
Yuan Ming did not stop, running the Nine Elements Technique to stabilize his state.
After three days and three nights, the magic power in his Dantian was completely stable, and his mind was adjusted to its best state.
Yuan Ming took out a foundation-building pill, drank it, and began to refine it.
The Foundation Establishment Pill was completely different from the pills he had taken before, and it took a long time for his energy to slowly melt away.
Not long after, a burning sensation erupted from the lower abdomen, as if a fire had been lit in the lower abdomen.
Yuan Ming had already figured out how to use the Foundation Establishment Pill, and used the Nine Yuan Jue to transfer this extremely hot medicinal power to the Dantian.
The use of the Foundation Establishment Pill is very simple. Just introduce the power of the medicine into the Dantian. The hot power of the medicine will calcine the mana over and over again, just like forging ore with a sledgehammer until a breakthrough is achieved.
This process is very long and takes ten and a half days to get the results.
Yuan Ming closed his eyes and used his magic power to cooperate with the power of the foundation-building pill.
Ten days flew by in a blink of an eye.
Yuan Ming opened his eyes, stopped exercising, and had a wry smile on his face.
This attack on the foundation building ended in failure. Although the mana was boiling and surging under the power of the foundation building pill, it had little tendency to liquefy. Every time it reached the critical threshold of breakthrough, it would retreat.
He was not surprised that his Four Spiritual Roots could make great progress during the Qi Refining Stage with the help of Nine Yuan Jue and a large number of pills he obtained from various places. However, the foundation building was different, and the difficulty increased by more than ten times. It was not a foundation building.
Kidan can easily cross it.
"It seems that we need to find some other auxiliary things." Yuan Ming said secretly.
If he was still somewhat confident before, after trying this time, he has a deeper understanding. Although there are still two foundation building pills, if you are not more than 50% sure, you should not try them casually, lest they be in vain.
wasted.
Of course, this attack is not without gain. The magic power in his Dantian is thicker and more viscous. The next time he breaks through the foundation building period, the chance will be greater.
The attack on the foundation failed. Yuan Ming had no intention of staying here for a long time. He communicated with Hei Chan mentally and prepared to leave, but did not receive any response.
Yuan Ming was confused, got up and walked towards the depths of the passage, and soon arrived at the ancient tomb in front.
and
As before, the demonic vines within the black toad spread again, and the area was larger than before, almost submerging the entire stone chamber. The purple-black vines were also larger and more numerous than before, and a strange fragrance floated in the air.
The originally dark stone chamber of the ancient tomb now seems to have turned into a lush garden.
Yuan Ming admired the strange beauty in front of him and was about to step in when several nearby vines jumped up like poisonous snakes and made an attack gesture towards him.
Yuan Ming's face turned grave, he grabbed a vine like lightning and started to control the beast.
The rich black energy rolled out and poured into the vine along the vine, affecting the beast control runes.
The demonic vines all over the hall began to dance in pain and quickly retracted.
In a few breaths, except for the one in Yuan Ming's hand, all the demonic vines in the hall disappeared, and the figure of the black toad appeared, and his appearance changed drastically.
Black Toad's originally plump body became extremely shriveled. It would not be an exaggeration to describe it as skinny. There were protrusions all over his body. At first glance, they seemed to be meridians, but Yuan Ming sensed these protrusions clearly.
The thing that arose was the purple-black demonic vine.
The purple-black demonic vine and the black toad originally coexisted in the same body, but now the demonic vine has begun to rob the black toad of its vitality!
"Is it because of the absorption of black energy?" Yuan Ming recalled that the demon vine had dared to attack him just now, and he felt more and more wrong.
Spiritual beasts that are planted with beast control runes are not foolproof and may lose control. In the history of Biluo Cave, there have been many precedents for spirit beasts to turn back on their masters.
Yuan Ming originally thought that with his powerful soul and beast control skills, he could control the demon vine, but now it seems that he has underestimated the demon vine!
However, as a major beast control sect, Biluodong naturally has ways to deal with out-of-control spiritual beasts.
Yuan Ming held the cane with one hand and continued to activate the beast control technique. With the other hand, he scratched the skin of his fingertips and performed the secret in the air.
A wisp of blood shot out and swam in the air as he kneaded the hand, quickly forming a rune-like bloody pattern.
"Zha!"
Yuan Ming shouted loudly, and the blood-colored runes glowed brightly, turning into a streak of blood and sinking into the body of the demon vine, hitting its beast soul consciousness.
This rune, called the Blood Spirit Rune, can not only enhance the power of the beast control technique, but also severely damage the soul of the spirit beast, making it afraid to make mistakes.
The purple-black demonic vine's consciousness was severely damaged and it became sluggish. The vine body in Yuan Ming's hand hung down like a dead snake.
Black Toad also screamed and fell over, motionless. Search Sanyou Novels on Bing or Baidu to read them first every day.
Yuan Ming hurriedly knelt down to check on Hei Chan. Hei Toad's consciousness also became very weak and he fell into a deep sleep at this moment.
He is not very proficient in controlling beasts, and he doesn't know what to do in this situation. He can only put the black toad into the spirit beast bag for the time being, and observe the situation before talking about it.
One afternoon a few days later.
Near the window of a restaurant near the main street of Black Rock City, a slightly comely young man and a sturdy man were sitting and drinking.
"Brother Wulu, what a coincidence! You said you would come to Black Rock City in a few days, but you didn't come early or late. But I just stepped into the city with my front foot, and I was able to meet you with my back foot.
Right now." The handsome young man said with a smile.
"This is called destiny to meet each other thousands of miles away! Didn't I also encounter something on the road, and I dealt with it, but it was delayed. Come, cheers to our fate!" Ulu laughed and raised his glass to Yuan
Touch the inscription and drink it in one gulp.
Yuan Ming was naturally suspicious of Wulu's remarks, but he kept his seclusion secret, and after leaving the seclusion, the Black Rock City was a temporary idea. Unless the other party was a roundworm in his belly, there was no way he could know his itinerary.
"Maybe it's really a coincidence, right?" Yuan Ming thought, and drank the contents of the cup in one gulp.
