Ning Chen was also surprised, could he even sense this?
You know, generally speaking, when a warrior breaks through a big realm, due to the excessive improvement, it will be difficult to control his own power for a while, and will be perceived by the people around him.
When you break through a small realm, it is not so obvious. Usually, as long as you don't say it, outsiders can't sense it.
But Zhang Mian obviously felt it.
How should I explain this?
Ning Chen had no choice but to find an excuse and said: "Yes, my cultivation level has improved a bit. My physique is special and it is easier to improve in battle."
This statement was obviously not a good explanation, but Zhang Mian did not ask further questions, which made Ning Chen relieved. The Bronze Immortal Palace was his biggest secret, not to mention Zhang Mian, Lian Xiaoya, and his deceased grandfather.
Never said that.
Ning Chen disposed of the corpse of the terrifying deer creature, and there were still a few matches left. He lit a bonfire, threaded the deer meat into skewers, and grilled it.
He is not fat, and naturally he does not carry so many seasonings with him, but the meat of the terrifying creature is extraordinary, and it is delicious even without any seasoning.
Now that Zhang Mian is by his side, Ning Chen is naturally not worried about attracting scary creatures. He is even eager to have some scary creatures, just as he needs to hunt scary creatures to improve his cultivation.
The bonfire was lit, and the deer meat was roasted until it became sizzling and oily, and the fragrance filled the air...
"It smells so good." Zhang Mian's eyes lit up and he said, "I haven't had barbecue in many years."
Ning Chen didn't know how to respond. It wasn't many years, it was many, many years. Boss, you have been lying in the coffin for a thousand years.
After a while, the barbecue was cooked.
Ning Chen first handed a bunch to Zhang Mian. Zhang Mian sniffed it, smiled, and then started to devour it without any masterful demeanor.
Of course, anyone who had not eaten for a thousand years would probably be about the same as him.
Ning Chen hadn't eaten for a long time. The food tasted delicious and he felt satisfied.
After finishing the barbecue, Ning Chen couldn't help but burp. Zhang Mian was also very satisfied, touching his belly with a smile on his face.
At this moment, a terrifying creature appeared and bared its teeth at the two of them. It was a terrifying creature at the peak of the second level and very powerful.
However, Ning Chen has now returned to the high level of the first level. There is only one big difference. He thinks it is difficult, but he should be able to win.
"I'm full, I just need to move to eat." Ning Chen raised his sword and rushed forward, fighting the terrifying creature.
Zhang Mian just watched from the side and did not interfere.
Of course, a terrifying creature of this level does not require his intervention at all. How can one kill a chicken with a bull's-eye?
This second-level peak terrifying creature is very strong, stronger than ordinary second-level warriors. Ning Chen had a hard time fighting it, not only because his cultivation level was only at the high level of the first level, but also because he did not use "One Sword Breaks Ten Thousand Techniques"
", relying only on "Nine Cuts of Waves", "Rang Niu Fist", and "Flowing Cloud Step".
However, he is not invincible, because he has almost completely mastered the "Nine Slashes of Breaking Waves", has also mastered the "Rang Niu Fist" to the thirteenth position, and has even mastered the "Flowing Cloud Step". His level of martial arts far exceeds his own cultivation.
for.
Moreover, now that he has rebuilt, it is similar to Xu You's "break and then stand". After the second tempering of the body, the foundation is much more solid than that of ordinary warriors, and he can exert more powerful combat effectiveness.
So even if there is a big difference in realm, he is not at a disadvantage.
"In the past, I had to use "One Sword to Break All Laws" to compete with such an opponent, but now I don't need to." Ning Chen felt that it was not entirely a bad thing to lose his cultivation level. At least he would become better after rebuilding it once.
Stronger.
In the end, Ning Chen was injured, but he successfully killed the terrifying creature.
This time, his cultivation level has improved to a small level, reaching the peak of the first level. This is just because he is at the bottleneck between the first level and the second level. Otherwise, he might be able to directly improve to two small levels.
The injuries on his body also healed quickly, and this time it was even more difficult to cover up. Ning Chen didn't know how to explain it, and he had a headache.
However, Zhang Mian did not ask this time. He just took a deep look at Ning Chen and said, "I'm not in a hurry. You can hunt the scary creatures while walking."
Ning Chen quickly thanked: "Thank you, senior."
Zhang Mian waved his hand and asked Ning Chen to continue talking about the thousand-year historical changes.
In the next few days, the two of them walked, and Ning Chen talked about the historical changes of thousands of years, hunting and killing terrifying creatures when they encountered them, and improving his cultivation.
The two of them got along very well along the way. Zhang Mian learned about the history after his death and learned many new things, while Ning Chen's cultivation level had also broken through to the second level.
Unknowingly, the two of them had arrived at the outskirts of Longhu Mountain.
There were more and more terrifying creatures around, including many fourth- and fifth-level terrifying creatures, but they didn't dare to make any mistakes in front of Zhang Mian.
Ning Chen had thought about borrowing Zhang Mian's help to suppress the fourth-level or even fifth-level terrifying creatures, and then doing the finishing touches himself to obtain the energy gift from the Bronze Immortal Palace.
But in the end he didn't do that.
At first, I didn’t want to trouble Zhang Mian over such a trivial matter. After all, he is a big boss, and it would be too unqualified to do such a thing.
Secondly, Ning Chen feels that the current speed of cultivation improvement is reasonable. If he really kills a fourth-level or fifth-level terrifying creature, his cultivation level will skyrocket instantly, reaching the third or even fourth level, and he will be promoted to one or two major realms.
, he couldn't even find an excuse.
"My cultivation has recovered very quickly. Now that I am with the boss, I don't need to worry about my safety, but there is no need to be anxious." Ning Chen thought to himself and decided to do it by himself.
...
Unknowingly, the two of them had reached the edge of the seal.
This time the two of them did not go head-to-head because Ning Chen had felt something strange these days.
He didn't even meet a human warrior for a few days, and he didn't know what happened. But with Zhang Mian, a man who had come back from the dead, with him, in order to avoid trouble, he decided to take other exits.
"Senior, there is a seal in front of you." Ning Chen pointed forward and said: "This seal covers the entire Longhu Mountain. Only people below the fourth level and terrifying creatures can pass..."
However, before he could finish speaking, Zhang Mian shook his head and said: "Fourth-level terrifying creatures can also get out." As he said that, he glanced at the sky, "The power of the seal is weakening, and soon the third-level warriors, and the corresponding
The terrifying creatures in the realm can come and go freely."
ah?
Ning Chen was shocked and couldn't help but frown: "Is it because Ren Huaishan escaped from trouble?"
Zhang Mian said: "There is some relationship, but not entirely. Longhu Mountain is far more mysterious than you think. The seal that covers the entire Longhu Mountain now is different from the seal I used to seal Ren Huaishan. I can feel that this world is
The recovery and the upheaval have just begun.”
What?
Ning Chen's heart was shocked. He couldn't fully understand Zhang Mian's words, but he could feel the horror contained in them. The world was recovering, and the drastic changes had just begun. So what will happen in the future, and what will this world look like?
