More than half a month has passed in the blink of an eye, and there is less than a week left until the day when I break into the Wooden Man Lane.
During this period, Ye Chen walked on horseback for an hour every morning and evening, and spent the rest of the time exercising his physical strength and practicing martial arts.
Now he can hold up a three-hundred-jin stone with one arm. With both arms exerted, he can easily lift a thousand-jin boulder above his head.
In addition to the physical leap, Ye Chen discovered that with enough strength, he could use his sword skills more easily. His speed and control increased dramatically. He could split seven or eight flying leaves with a single sword and pierce a waist-thick tree.
A sword mark four inches deep was left on the boulder.
"It's time to hone your actual combat skills." Ye Chen felt that he had reached his limit, and continued training would not make much improvement. If he has this skill, it is better to increase his actual combat experience and hone his advanced enemy skills, so that he can perform 100%.
Take advantage of your own advantages.
However, actual combat is not so easy to train. He is still an outer disciple. He cannot go down the mountain and walk in the rivers and lakes, so there is no life and death fight. Those inner disciples are only one level higher. In a real duel, even if your cultivation is
In order to be on par with him, even if you take three or two moves, you will be defeated. This is the difference between whether you have experienced actual combat or not.
Fortunately, you don't have to fight people to achieve actual combat effects. There are monsters in this world, and monsters can be cultivated actively or passively. When the monster energy in the body reaches a certain level, it will mutate and evolve.
For countless years, the ancients divided monsters into levels. First- and second-level monsters correspond to Qi-training realm warriors, third- and fourth-level monsters correspond to Ningzhen-realm warriors, fifth- and sixth-level monsters correspond to Yuan-holding realm warriors, and level six and above
Monsters are basically very rare and can only appear in those deep mountains and old forests.
Fighting against monsters is no worse than fighting against humans. On the contrary, monsters are often better than humans in terms of momentum. A ferocious beast that has killed countless animals and humans appears in front of you, and its look can scare you to the point of numbness.
100% of the strength can only be used at 50%.
So Ye Chen planned to go to the Silent Mountains to practice, where low-level monsters often appeared.
Wearing the stainless steel sword on his left waist, Ye Chen tidied his clothes and walked out of the yard.
On the way down the mountain, looking at the outer disciples and inner disciples coming and going, Ye Chen sighed in his heart: No matter who he is, if he wants to live a better life, he must have money. The Ye family he belongs to has tens of millions of assets. Logically speaking, he
They should not be poor, but unfortunately this is not the case. For example, the Ye family has a total number of thousands, of which six to seven hundred are business people and help the family manage the business. The remaining four to five hundred are dedicated to practicing martial arts and do not make money at all.
, but if you want to protect your own property, you must have strong force, and these forces require money to support, which is a staggering amount accumulated in a year, so even his father, the head of the Ye family, has only a few hundred thousand taels of personal property.
Silver, and as a son, his monthly salary is one hundred taels of silver. If there are other necessary expenses, he can be reimbursed.
What he can do with one hundred taels a month is to eat better and dress better. There is not much difference in other aspects. Wanting to use expensive medicinal materials to exercise the body for a long time is not something he can enjoy. Only the core children of the family or the core disciples of the sect can enjoy it.
Only then can this capital be cultivated.
After descending the mountain and looking for the right direction, Ye Chen quickened his pace and hurried on.
In the afternoon, Ye Chen arrived at the outskirts of the Silent Mountains, and some first-level monsters began to appear. In such a dangerous place, ordinary Qi-training realm warriors would not dare to enter. Even Ye Chen became cautious, keeping his palms on the hilt of his sword at all times.
, attack immediately as soon as there is danger.
Along the way, Ye Chen did not encounter too high-level monsters. The occasionally top-level monsters that appeared were only a red bird, and it was seriously injured. If it wasn't flying in the sky, Ye Chen wouldn't mind gesticulating.
.
After walking for a while and killing several monsters, Ye Chen suddenly stopped and his inner energy filled his ears.
"There was a sound of fighting!"
The biggest difference between warriors and ordinary people is the use of inner energy. No matter how strong the five senses of ordinary people are, there are limits, but warriors can use inner energy to enhance their five senses. At this time, Ye Chen can hear larger movements one mile away by relying on inner energy.
and identify the source.
Following the sound, Ye Chen rushed over quietly.
Ahead is a dense forest, and vaguely visible human figures can be seen flickering. In addition, there are huge shadows and thrilling roars of beasts.
Thirty steps closer to the battle site, Ye Chen jumped up to a big tree and had a clear view of the front from a high position.
There is about a five-foot-wide clearing in the forest. At this time, four or five young men holding weapons are crowding around and besieging a huge monster. The monster is one foot long, shaped like a tiger, with shiny black hair and long hair.
Its blood-red tongue is dripping with purple liquid, its mouth is full of serrated teeth, and its claws are three feet long, sharp and curved.
It is a second-level top-notch demon beast, the Sawtooth Poisonous Beast. Its strength is equivalent to that of a warrior at the tenth level of the Qi Realm. It carries extremely poisonous poison in its body. The skin of those who are infected will ulcerate and require the corresponding antidote to cure it. Otherwise, when the poisonous gas attacks the heart, the warrior of the Condensation Realm will also suffer.
Difficult to save, quite difficult to deal with.
After observing for a while, Ye Chen noticed the golden ring symbols on the sleeves of several people, and an unflattering sect name came to mind.
Jinguang Sect is a sect close to the Liuyun Sect. The sect leader Li Yu is a master in the middle stage of the Baoyuan Realm. He is good at the Qimen weapon and the life-threatening golden ring. He was an outer disciple of the Liuyun Sect in his early years. Later he wandered the world alone. I heard that he had been to Tianfeng
After returning from other countries outside China, he established the Jinguang Sect with five hundred disciples.
The five people who besieged the serrated poisonous beast were not very powerful, but they cooperated very well. They should have been working together for a long time and had a lot of experience in cooperation.
Several rays of sword light struck the serrated poisonous beast. The one who made the move was a girl in red, wielding a thin sword. Her cultivation level was roughly at the fifth level of Qi training realm. There were two twin brothers wielding knives next to her.
, tall and burly, roaring from time to time to suppress the monster, using his body strength to force the opponent to be unable to move forward.
Although these three people worked hard, the main force was not them, but the other two.
One of them is a strong young man wearing black clothes. His weapon is a powerful weapon, the Green Dragon Halberd. The two-meter-long weapon looks heavy and heavy. Every time the serrated poisonous beast threatens other people, he will push it back and take the opportunity to attack others.
There was a bloodstain on the opponent's body.
What worries Ye Chen the most is the young man in blue. He is about seventeen or eighteen years old. He has a Xiao on his waist. He has the strongest attack power without using weapons. A random strike with his palm will bring out a fierce black palm wind, hitting him.
The serrated poisonous beast retreated continuously.
If Ye Chen's guess is correct, the young man in blue is clearly a warrior at the ninth level of the Qi training realm. He can already mix the inner Qi into the wind of his palms and hurt people from a distance. Of course, the power is much worse than the external release of Qi.
, otherwise the serrated poisonous beast would have been killed long ago.
Monsters have always been powerful, but they eventually run out of power.
At this time, the saw-toothed poisonous beast, which was covered in scars, was exhausted. After the poisonous smoke it spat out was deflected by the black palm of the young man in blue, it turned around and tried to escape.
"Where to go!" The young man in blue had lightning eyes, followed his palm, and hit the serrated poisonous beast hard on the side.
Roar!
The serrated poisonous beast wailed, and its huge body fell out like a sack, its internal organs shattered.
"Senior Brother Liu is so awesome." Sheathing the rapier, the girl in red wiped her sweat and turned around to look at the young man in blue with admiration.
The young man in blue said gently: "What's so great about me? You will be able to catch up with me in a few years."
The young man in black holding the Green Dragon Halberd said: "I am now at the peak of the seventh level of Qi Training Realm, and I will be able to catch up with you in a few months."
"Yes." The young man in blue didn't take it seriously.
The girl in red pouted, as if she didn't like the arrogant style of the boy in black.
