Tang Yan sat cross-legged on the bed, running the Immortal Evolution Technique to refine a Spirit Source Liquid. The cracked bones in his body had been moisturized and healed by the 'Mist of Life', and he only needed to replenish enough spiritual power to restore his vitality.
Thinking back to the fierce battle just now, Tang Yan was surprised by Dong Leiming's strong combat power. Especially after using the 'Golden Elephant Body Protection', his whole body felt like it was made of steel, and every blow seemed to hit the steel.
, the shock caused the bones of both hands to be full of cracks. If it were not for the rapid repair of the life mist inspired by the Immortal Evolution Art, an ordinary person would have lost his hands after throwing seven or eight punches.
No wonder Dong Leiming is able to remain invincible among students at the same level. This Golden Elephant Technique is indeed terrifying!
If you can really get it and cultivate it successfully, you can boldly try to devour monsters, completely strengthen this body, and give yourself another life-saving asset.
After running for five consecutive days, the spiritual source liquid was completely refined and the essence of life and resentment were absorbed. Tang Yan took a long breath and opened his eyes.
Under the dual effects of the Spiritual Source Liquid and the Immortal Evolution Art, the body basically returned to normal, and the efficacy of the two was once again most directly demonstrated! Dong Leiming needed to lie in bed for two days, but he only needed two hours, and he fully recovered.
.
"Let's go, go home, and make a puppy house for you." Tang Yan picked up the puppy next to him, then screamed and threw his hand away as if he was electrocuted.
The puppy was thrown into the corner and lay motionless.
Tang Yan looked at his bloody right hand, shocked. The moment he touched the little black dog, it seemed as if he was swept by some kind of electric current, and his skin and flesh were torn apart in the blink of an eye.
"...Well..." The little black dog in the corner suddenly curled up tremblingly, its eyes tightly closed, and it let out a low groan, as if it was suffering great pain.
If you observe carefully, you will find that its body is obviously stretching, or... getting bigger! Every time it stretches, a faint black electric light will flash across its body.
When I first bought the little black dog, it was only as big as the palm of my hand, but now it has obviously expanded to the size of a palm.
Tang Yan was startled and doubtful, and slowly approached the little black dog. Yes, it was indeed growing up! The thing that tore the palm of his hand just now was probably the black arc that flashed from time to time.
"This is a monster? Is it transforming?" Tang Yan became more and more surprised. He couldn't imagine any suitable reason to explain the scene in front of him, but...after a moment, as if he had noticed it, he turned around and stared at the bed.
There was an open jade bottle there, with the cork thrown aside, and a rich mist of energy emitted from the mouth of the bottle.
That was the container Tang Yan used to hold the spiritual source liquid!
With an ominous premonition in his heart, Tang Yan quickly picked up the jade bottle and poured out the spiritual source liquid inside, but...one drop? Only one drop left?!
When I returned to the Giant Elephant City, I had a total of twelve drops of treasure. I later gave three to Du Yang, leaving nine. In order to make up for the excessive consumption of spiritual power during retreat, I consumed four of them, and just absorbed one more.
There should be four left!
Why is there only one?!
Where are the other three?!
Tang Yan's expression changed uncertainly. These treasured spiritual source fluids were all powerful third-level monsters hunted together with Alinda. The spiritual source fluid contained in them was comparable to second-level or third-level martial spirits!
They are all hunted at the risk of their lives! They are used to attack the third-level martial spirit barrier!
Where did it go?
Tang Yan looked at the little black dog in the corner, but directly denied that if it accidentally swallowed it, it would be equivalent to eating three level three monsters, and it would definitely explode and die in an instant.
Is it Du Yang? Or Alinda? Impossible! I understand their nature and have not fallen to the point of stealing.
Could it be the shopkeeper? If the shopkeeper stole it, he would only steal the whole thing and not leave a bottle, even a bottle inside. Besides, the shopkeeper knew himself, so he would not be so bold as to be so presumptuous.
The hotel was relatively simple, with no windows and only a wooden door, with Du Yang and Alinda guarding the outside.
Who else could it be?
Could it be...really...
Tang Yan's attention returned to the little black dog. The little thing was trembling and curled up, its limbs were stiff and tense, its tender little claws were protruding hard, its tender little face was squeezed and twisted, and Tang Yan was in pain.
Everybody can feel it.
Is it really it?
"...Hmm..." The little black dog stretched at a speed visible to the naked eye while struggling, its curly and dry hair gradually turned black, and the black electric light became more intense.
Finally... stung... a dense arc of electricity suddenly enveloped the whole body, the little black dog let out a subtle moan, completely collapsed, and the arc disappeared.
Tang Yan touched it tentatively a few times, but there was no more electric shock. He picked it up carefully. There was still a heartbeat and breathing, as if he had fallen into a deep sleep.
Did it really swallow the spiritual source liquid? Tang Yan had to question again.
If all of this is true, then... after swallowing three pieces of spirit source liquid in a row, he only grew to the size of a palm. What a terrifying endurance that little thing must have.
Tang Yan checked carefully for a long time, but found nothing. The little black dog slept very deeply.
At this time, there were chatter outside, as if someone was coming. Tang Yan didn't think about the little black dog for the time being, put it in his arms, opened the door and walked out of the guest room.
There was a little boy standing outside, being interrogated by Du Yang and Alinda about something.
"Hello, big brother." The little boy greeted Tang Yan very politely.
Tang Yan looked at Du Yang strangely. "What's wrong?"
Du Yang said: "Someone asked this kid to bring a message, saying that we will be in danger and it is best to go find him now."
"who?"
The little boy said: "It's an uncle."
"What does it look like? What are its characteristics?"
"Wearing black clothes, you can't see clearly."
"Where to go?"
"Continue five roads north, near the East District. He said you just go there and he will come to you."
Du Yang said: "It is close to a poverty-stricken area and is an idle place."
Aelinda hesitated and said: "I wonder if it has anything to do with what happened today?"
Du Yang said: "What danger does the other party refer to? Is it the academy, the third prince? Or other aspects?"
"I was wondering who would tip us off and what their purpose was." Alinda was more cautious.
Tang Yan carried the ancient sword on his back and said, "Go over and have a look."
The little boy showed a sweet smile: "Big brother, he said... you will give me money."
Tang Yan smiled: "Should I give you money?"
The little boy shrank his neck timidly: "He said, you will definitely go, and you will be very willing to give me money."
"How many?"
"Five copper coins!" the little boy became excited.
"Here, don't worry." Tang Yan gave a gold coin, leaving the dull little boy behind, and left the hotel with Du Yang and Alinda.
Turning left and right in this remote place, he finally came to a relatively quiet alley, with dilapidated houses on both sides, some of which were abandoned. Tang Yan did not expect that there would be such a desolate place in the Giant Elephant City.
The sky has darkened, but there is no light around, only the pale moonlight illuminates the road.
"I feel...a little cold..." Du Yang looked around vigilantly, standing at the entrance of the alley without going in. He slowly clenched his fists with his hands, and the blood on his skin faded away, turning pale like a rock.
Tang Yan untied the ancient war knife and inserted it into the ground: "Just wait here."
Quiet! The night is pale and silent!
In sharp contrast to the noise and prosperity in the distance, the silence has a bit of dilapidated desolation.
"Is this Tang Yan, the second young master of the Tang family?" An old voice echoed in this silent slum.
"I am, who are you? What do you want from me?"
"About your life."
"Who wants my life? Why do you want to tip me off and what do you want in return? I suggest you come forward and tell me."
"I'm afraid things are different from what you expected. The people who want your life... are us! Sending a child there is just a small trick. This method... haha... has been tried and true! To put it simply, someone is offering a high price for your life.
Head!!" The voice suddenly turned cold, and a gust of wind roared in. Thick dust kicked up in the entire area, quickly filling the surrounding alleys and houses, blocking the pale moonlight.
"Huh?" The three of them were shocked. Damn it, you were careless!
"You guys retreat first!!" Alinda drew out her ice sword and looked around cautiously.
"Retreat together, stay together." Tang Yan silently circulated the evil power of the seven acupuncture points of his right eye, accumulating the Eye of Annihilation.
"Don't be brave, retreat together." Du Yang was also using his spiritual power, preparing to go all out.
Whoosh! Figures shot out quickly in the dust and mist, moving everywhere in a chaotic and strange way. They were actually quickly closing the distance between each other. The surging spiritual power fluctuations transmitted made the three people's hearts slowly sink.
"You go first!!" Alinda shouted without hesitation, and rushed out first. The surging spiritual power fluctuations spread out and turned into dense ice butterflies, heading straight for the area with the thickest dust and fog in front of her on the left.
Huh? A surprised sound came from the dust, and an earth wall suddenly appeared, blocking the dense ice butterflies flying towards them. With a rumble, the ice butterflies exploded at the same time, triggering a superimposed violent explosion. The earth wall collapsed in an instant, and the impact
The air wave went straight to the shadow behind, and then there was a muffled sound.
Aelinda's eyes were like daggers, focusing on the black shadow approaching quickly.
"Damn it!! The information is wrong, this girl is actually a second-level martial arts master!!" The old businessman sounded again, with a little hoarseness and urgency.
