After returning home, Lin Shen unexpectedly discovered that Xiao Ai was not at home.
"Where did the little guy go?"
Lin Shen glanced at the empty cans piled on the coffee table in the living room.
After he no longer had to worry about money, Xiao Ai's food also improved several levels.
Now the canned cat that the little guy eats has been replaced by the more expensive 'Wuyuan' brand, with a market price of 5,000 spirit coins per can, which is far more than the unit price of spirit animal meat.
However, correspondingly, this kind of canned cat can also have a certain effect on improving the cultivation efficiency even for feathered monsters.
After sitting in the living room for a while, Lin Shen heard a slight movement from the balcony. He turned around and saw Xiao Ai jumping lightly from outside to the balcony.
The little guy soon noticed that there was someone in the living room. He looked up and saw that it was Lin Shen, and immediately shouted in surprise:
"Lin Shen, you are back!"
Lin Shen smiled slightly and touched Xiao Ai's head, who quickly ran towards him.
"Where did you run to?"
"I went to find the general." Xiao Ai answered with his head held high, "But he seemed to be busy with something and had no time to play with me, so I had to come back."
After a pause, Xiao Ai said excitedly:
"Lin Shen, when you come back this time, are you going to take me out of the city again?"
When she came back from outside the city last time, Lin Shen changed her brand of canned cats and bought a lot of delicious canned cats at once, allowing her to live a happy life of eating canned cats whenever she wanted.
During this period, little Ai was in a fairyland and couldn't be too happy.
So now when it comes to going out for training, she is more active than Lin Shen.
"That's right, get ready and we'll set off in a moment."
"Really? That's great!"
Xiao Ai immediately jumped for joy.
"No need to prepare, let's set off now!"
Seeing Xiao Ai's impatient look, Lin Shen burst out laughing.
This little guy is really understanding.
So one person and one cat then set out and rushed out of the city.
Compared to the first time he came to the Longyuan Mountains, Lin Shen's strength had greatly increased.
Not only has his cultivation skyrocketed, but he has also gained two powerful martial arts skills that transcend the realm of perfection.
Therefore, he was no longer satisfied with the outer reaches of the Longyuan Mountains, but tried to explore deeper.
Naturally, the monsters encountered along the way are also more ferocious and fierce. There are almost none below the Ascension Realm, and there are even monster beasts in the late Ascension Realm.
However, Lin Shen was not afraid at all.
With his current strength, as long as he doesn't encounter monsters from the Tongxuan Realm, his life will not be in danger.
And there is no need to worry too much about this.
Tongxuan realm monsters are only one step away from transforming. They are powerful and powerful. Most of them are the backbone of a certain monster tribe and will not wander around easily.
Ordinary practitioners may not be able to find it even if they search deliberately, let alone stumble upon it by chance.
If that's the case, it can only be said to be bad luck.
After breaking through to the sixth level of Long Breath, the no-consumption radius of the clone has increased to about 400 meters.
A single clone is enough to stay about two kilometers away from Lin Shen for about five minutes.
However, when the distance is extended to three thousand meters, the existence time will drop sharply to about one minute.
This is also the reason why Lin Shen didn't summon a clone of the Killing Demonstration Dao to hunt the monsters together.
Within a mere four hundred meters, there is no need for the main body and the clone to search for monsters at the same time. Doing so would risk exposing the clone's secrets.
Maybe it was accidentally discovered by a passing practitioner.
As for a longer distance, considering that it would continue to consume his physical strength and the maintenance time was also very short, Lin Shen decisively gave up this idea.
After all, although the cost of materializing the clone is much less than before, it is still far from being able to move at will.
Lin Shen estimated that he would have to wait until he became a true monk before he could usher in such a day.
Bang!
The monster's huge body fell far away and hit a tree trunk more than 20 meters away.
The strong force directly broke the thick tree trunk in the middle, and the monster also let out a miserable howl and fell heavily to the ground.
Before he could get up, several sharp sword lights tore through the air and hit the monster's eyebrows, neck and back of the heart almost at the same time!
The howl suddenly stopped.
The monster dies in an instant!
After confirming that the demonic beast was indeed extinct, the three people who gathered around him breathed a sigh of relief.
"Grandma, this monster in the late stage of the Feathering Realm is really difficult to deal with. We three practitioners at the fifth and sixth levels of the Long Breath Realm joined forces and almost couldn't kill this beast!"
"Be content. The White-Eyed Demonic Tiger is not an ordinary monster. This kind of monster has a strange bloodline and is generally much stronger than monsters of the same level. It's already pretty good that we can kill it."
"Stop talking about this, hurry up and skin the skin and get the bones. The white-eyed demon tiger in the late stage of the Ascension Realm has many good treasures in it!"
Mentioning this, the three of them suddenly became energetic.
There is a small reward for killing the white-eyed demon tiger.
And this white-eyed demon tiger has enough cultivation in the late stage of the Feathering Realm, and the reward is higher, and it has three small merits.
After removing the tiger spine that needs to be handed in as a mission voucher, the remaining skin, flesh, bones and blood also have dozens of merit points.
Even if three people share it equally, it is still a big gain.
The three of them happily began to dissect the corpse of the white-eyed demon tiger.
"I must exchange it for a storage bag when I go back this time, otherwise I have to dissect the corpse on site every time, which is such a waste of time!"
"A storage bag requires three small merits. I can't bear to part with it. With these merits, it would be more practical to exchange a few Hunyuan Pills to improve my cultivation."
The three of them were busy chatting away from one another.
They are still using jade charms for storage, and the space is very limited.
In order to save space, every time a monster is killed, it must be dissected on-site to discard the excess internal organs, leaving only valuable skin, flesh, bones and a few organs.
At this moment, one of them suddenly raised his head and looked around in confusion.
"Did you hear anything?"
As soon as these words came out, the other two people immediately stopped what they were doing and looked around cautiously.
The Longyuan Mountains are full of dangers, and one's life may be lost if one is not careful. Therefore, practitioners who enter the mountains will feel as if they are facing a formidable enemy at the slightest sign of trouble.
However, after waiting for a moment, the two of them found no clues and looked at their companion who had made the noise in confusion.
The latter shrugged: "Maybe I'm too worried."
Before he finished speaking, a gust of bad wind suddenly swept in from the front, causing the surrounding trees to sway and make countless branches and leaves rustle.
Roar!
A low and ferocious beast roar came, and a white-eyed demon tiger jumped out of the evil wind and landed in front of the three people.
The three of them were startled by the sudden appearance of the monster, and subconsciously assumed a fighting stance.
But when they came back to their senses, the three of them felt happy again.
Another demonic tiger with white eyes!
This is a huge feat!
What a blessing!
The three of them looked at each other, walked forward slowly in tacit understanding, and surrounded the white-eyed demon tiger.
But just halfway through, there were sudden roars of beasts in my ears, and several waves of evil wind blew up. Four white-eyed demon tigers jumped out, staring at the three of them with eager eyes.
At this moment, the joy on the faces of the three people stopped and turned pale.
"Five, five heads!!"
Under the cold and fierce gaze of the five white-eyed demon tigers, the faces of the three practitioners suddenly turned pale, and their bodies could not help but tremble slightly.
As for the two demonic tigers with white eyes, they could still manage to deal with them even if they tried their best.
If you have three heads, you can at least escape.
But with five white-eyed monster tigers, their hope of escaping is already very slim!
"Haha, look what I found, three human cultivators!"
A low, hoarse voice suddenly sounded.
A tall figure slowly walked out from behind the white-eyed demon tiger, with its back facing the sun and casting a shadow.
It was a tiger monster with a completely black body, pale eyes, and a pair of broad fleshy wings on its back.
Looking at these characteristics alone, it is not much different from the white-eyed demon tiger present.
The only difference is that it walks upright like a human!
The three-meter-high body stood upright, its limbs were slightly thinner, but more slender, and the sharp claws on the fingertips shone with a metallic cold luster in the sunlight.
The moment they saw the tiger demon, the expressions of the three cultivators were stunned for a moment, and they almost squeezed out a trembling cry from their throats.
"Tong, Tongxuan realm monster."
Tongxuan realm monsters may not necessarily be able to walk upright and speak human words like humans, but those who can do this are definitely Tongxuan realm monsters!
The appearance of the tiger demon defeated the last trace of luck in the hearts of the three practitioners.
Suddenly, despair appeared in the eyes of the three people.
Looking at the expressions of the three people, the tiger demon's face showed human cruelty and joy.
"Since it's a snack delivered to your door, I'm not welcome. I happen to be hungry."
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the three practitioners all changed.
But before they could react, they suddenly felt the figure in front of them flicker, and the tiger demon had disappeared.
The next second, a muffled sound suddenly sounded in my ears, like the sound of water from a fountain.
The two practitioners standing on the right suddenly felt a warmth on their faces. They turned around and were shocked to find that the companion on the left had turned into a headless corpse, with warm blood gushing out from the broken neck like a spring.
They look alike.
A few meters away, the tiger demon held a head with a ferocious smile on his face, brought it close to his mouth and took a bite, causing the red and yellow bits to scatter in all directions.
"Delicious! So delicious! Human flesh and blood that I haven't seen in a long time!"
The tiger demon laughed heartily and chewed up the whole head in two mouthfuls, making a crunching sound even with the meat and bones. Then he looked at the remaining two people with a ferocious smile and jumped out.
"ah!!!"
The shrill screams echoed over the mountains and forests.
After a while, the tiger demon patted his slightly round belly with satisfaction and roughly wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
"The flesh and blood of human practitioners is still as delicious as ever, but it's a pity that it is only in the Long Breathing Realm. If it is in the Mingqiao Realm, the taste will definitely be even more delicious!"
The tiger demon grinned, with a look of aftertaste on his ferocious face, as if he had really tasted the taste of a practitioner in the Mingqiao Realm.
After a moment, his expression calmed down, his eyes revealed a cruel light that penetrated people, he waved his hand and shouted.
"Go, sons, kill all the people within a hundred miles!"
"Roar!"
The sound of tiger roars suddenly burst out one after another.
Countless white-eyed demon tigers rushed out from the forest behind the tiger demon, sweeping in all directions like a flood.
"Meow~"
Xiao Ai yawned lazily, glanced at Lin Shen who was in a daze next to him, turned his head, closed his eyes, and continued to lie on the ground to rest.
Under the shade of a tree, Lin Shen sat cross-legged on the ground, looking at the panel attentively.
In the blink of an eye, I have been staying in Longyuan Mountains for more than a month.
During this period, in addition to hunting monsters and beasts around, I took Xiao Ai to search for heavenly materials and earthly treasures.
Unfortunately, this time I wasn't as lucky as last time. I didn't find any treasures such as the precious golden cloud sand veins, but only some more ordinary treasures of heaven, materials and earth.
However, when the quantity is accumulated, the harvest is quite considerable.
Xiao Ai is silly and silly every day, but he is very trustworthy when it comes to treasure hunting.
Of course, acquiring natural and earthly treasures was only the secondary purpose of Lin Shen's training trip. What really made him happy was the improvement of his martial arts.
Over this period of time, Lin Shen gradually figured out a pattern.
The target for improvement after triggering the talent effect of Killing Demonstration Dao is largely related to the martial arts skills Lin Shen used when killing monsters.
For example, in the process of killing monsters, if he only used the Bronze Hammer Hand martial skill from beginning to end, and was lucky enough to trigger the talent effect, then there is a high probability that the Bronze Hammer Hand's training progress will be improved.
After realizing this, Lin Shen began to consciously control the use of martial arts, and tried to only use a few martial arts that needed to be improved during the fight.
Sure enough, over time, there has been a significant improvement in efficiency.
After a month, the Bronze Hammer Hand, the Bone Forging Technique, and the Great Rock Sutra had all reached perfection, and were respectively integrated into the Forbidden Golden Armor and the Molten Weapon Hand by Lin Shen.
And just now, Rainbow Palm finally reached perfection.
Lin Shen breathed a long sigh of relief, concentrated his thoughts, and integrated the Rainbow Palm of Perfection into the Molten Weapon Hand.
In an instant, the words "Soldier Melting Hand (Complete 75%)" were distorted, and after a few seconds it suddenly turned into "Soldier Melting Hand (Enter Dao 0%)".
Lin Shen suddenly felt a slight tremor deep in his mind, and countless insights and understandings poured out like a tide. Both quality and quantity far exceeded any previous breakthrough in martial arts!
After a long while, Lin Shen finished digesting the information and slowly opened his eyes, with a smile of joy from the bottom of his face.
"It turns out this is the Taoist realm martial arts!"
Lin Shen's heart was racing.
Although it has not been tested in actual combat, just from the information in my mind, I can already understand that the power of Dao-level martial arts is far superior to that of Perfection-level martial arts!
If the martial arts of the Perfection Realm are still within the scope of martial arts, then the martial arts of the Entrance Dao Realm have reached a level comparable to magic!
That belongs to the realm of Mingqiao, even the height of a monk!
"It's true that I have integrated so many martial arts!"
Lin Shen was filled with joy.
What surprised him even more was that his Taoist martial arts skills could still be improved.
"I wonder what the state will be like next?"
After his thoughts wandered away for a moment, Lin Shen came back to his senses and called Xiao Ai to get up, ready to continue hunting monsters and improve the level of the Divine Elephant Skill so that he could complete the breakthrough of the Forbidden Golden Armor as soon as possible.
By the way, you can also try the power of the Taoist Realm Soldier Melter!
Just as Lin Shen was about to start, he suddenly heard a faint roar of a beast in the distance.
