The scorching sun and the scorching heat caused cracks on the dirt floor. When the soles of the feet stepped on the hard soil, a heat wave suddenly poured in from the soles of the feet, making the travelers sweat profusely and curse continuously.
This damn weather.
On the spacious loess road, a young man in ordinary clothes was walking hard with sweat on his face. Every time the young man put his foot down, it would be like a heavy object falling to the ground, hitting the ground hard and causing a splash.
Ground yellow dust.
Looking closely, I saw that the young man was carrying an extremely huge black giant sword on his back. Well, it was not so much a giant sword as it was a thick iron giant ruler without any edge or edge.
The black giant sword also had no tip. At the end, it was as if something had cut it off in the middle, revealing a smooth cross-section like a mirror.
The surface of the pitch-black giant sword is painted with a series of vague and strange lines. The lines reach to the hilt and cover almost all parts of the sword body. Combined with the simple pitch-black color, it looks somewhat mysterious.
The length of the strange giant sword almost exceeded the boy's height. Such a strange combination made some people who occasionally passed by on the road couldn't help but cast curious glances at him.
After walking a few hundred meters again, the boy finally couldn't hold on anymore. He kept breathing heavily like a windmill, and dragged his feet, which weighed as much as a thousand kilograms, toward the shade of the big tree on the roadside.
After walking to the bottom of the tree, the young man turned his back directly to the sky and planted his head on the cool turf, letting the sweat on his forehead flow down like a stream.
"Teacher, this thing... is too terrifying. After carrying it... the fighting energy flowing in the body has become sluggish, and this ghost thing is too heavy, right? It used to be only one day's journey, but now it's two
It's crazy, and we haven't arrived yet!" After taking a few heavy breaths, Xiao Yan's voice was hoarse due to excessive exertion.
"Hey, the practice has officially begun. You don't think it's as simple as letting you come out and just wander around, right? Since it's called penance, then prepare to enjoy the most difficult treatment for me, the comfortable life in Wutan City
, have begun to stay away from you." From the ring, Yao Lao's old laughter that was slightly gloating about his misfortune came out.
Hearing this, Xiao Yan smiled bitterly and shook his head. He turned slightly to the side and glanced at the black giant sword without an edge from the corner of his eyes. There was a hint of horror in his eyes.
He didn't expect that this seemingly inconspicuous thing could be so terrifying. Not only could it suppress the fighting spirit flowing rapidly in his body like a turtle crawling, but its perverted weight almost made Xiao Yan run at full power.
In a fit of vindictiveness, he bent his waist.
Over the past two days, Xiao Yan has finally tried what it means to be truly exhausted.
With this weird black giant sword on his back, Xiao Yan's combat effectiveness is probably only as good as that of a rookie fighter.
However, although the black giant sword brought many constraints, its suppressive effect also saved Xiao Yan from the worry of others seeing through his true strength through his aura. He was walking alone, and in this kind of life
When you are unfamiliar with the road, it is undoubtedly a stupid move to expose your bottom line strength at will.
He caressed the ring with his fingers. A light green elixir appeared in the palm of his hand. This was a relatively effective Qi-restoring elixir that could speed up the recovery of fighting energy in a short period of time.
This elixir was specially refined by Yao Lao for Xiao Yan before leaving Wutan City that day. However, because the medicinal materials required for the Qi Recovery elixir were relatively scarce, he could only gather them together with the ability of Miter Auction House.
He had to refine more than thirty medicinal materials. Therefore, Xiao Yan usually did not dare to take them casually, but in this situation, he could no longer be frugal.
His eyes cautiously scanned the road not far away. After seeing no one there, Xiao Yan swallowed it in one gulp and leaned against the tree trunk, slowly waiting for the elixir to take effect.
Although after taking the elixir and entering a state of cultivation, the elixir's medicinal power can be maximized, but at this time, Xiao Yan obviously did not have the environmental conditions for quiet cultivation. The crowds of people passing by on the road outside were looking at him.
The thought of entering a state of cultivation was shattered.
Xiao Yan, who closed his eyes slightly and was in a state of extreme exhaustion, could clearly feel that the almost numb muscles in his body were greedily absorbing the gentle medicinal power that was gradually dissipating.
When the last trace of the medicinal power was absorbed, Xiao Yan seemed to have a feeling that the explosive power contained in the muscles and cells seemed to be slightly stronger than before...
Although it had only been two days since the hard training began, Xiao Yan was confident that if he took off the heavy sword on his back, he would definitely be confident of defeating a six-star fighter!
"It seems to have some effect?" Xiao Yan murmured and touched his face. He suddenly grinned and stretched his arms lazily. The feeling of vitality made him almost feel refreshed from the inside out.
Pushing himself up from the ground, Xiao Yan patted the strange giant sword behind him that he regarded as a burden with both hate and love, and once again took heavy steps towards the destination which was not far away.
Before the sky gradually darkened, Xiao Yan finally arrived at the small town closest to the Warcraft Mountains.
The town is called Qingshan Town. Because it is close to the Warcraft Mountains, it is also called the Warcraft Town. The largest group of people in the town are naturally those mercenaries who work hard to add blood to their swords all day long. They gather in groups.
, holding each other's arms, frothing at the mouth on the street, unscrupulously discussing where the women in the town are the most attractive, where the wine is the strongest, and where the monsters are the most ferocious...
Xiao Yan, who was walking on the streets paved with bluestone and carrying a huge sword that was not commensurate with his size, naturally attracted a lot of strange looks, but he ignored them and touched one.
There was sweat on my forehead as I walked slowly along the street.
There are many shops on both sides of the street, and because of the favorable location, they are quite popular. Xiao Yan glanced at the brightly lit shops with interest, and when his eyes fell on a rather spacious place,
After entering the medicine shop, he stopped, and after thinking for a while, he walked into the famous medicine shop called "Wanyaozhai".
Xiao Yan is not very interested in weapons and armor, but he is very interested in various rare medicinal materials. As long as he can find precious medicinal materials, the Yao Lao can refine them into various strength-enhancing elixirs.
Medicine, walking in the dangerous mountains of monsters, pills are the most life-saving and practical things.
Walking into the spacious store, the moonstone hanging on the wall illuminated the store like daylight. At this time, there were quite a lot of people in the store, and the clerks were extremely busy, so no one greeted Xiao who just came in.
inflammation.
No one greeted him, so Xiao Yan was happy to be at peace. His eyes slowly swept across the transparent counter. When his eyes moved to the small jade box, he was slightly startled.
"Healing medicine? Is there a pharmacist here?" Xiao Yan stared at the information written under the small jade bottle, and murmured in surprise.
Shaking his head, Xiao Yan continued to move his eyes. However, after he looked at everything on the counter, he shook his head with some disappointment. Although there were some intermediate medicinal materials among them, the pair of current Xiao Yan did not.
What a use.
Just when Xiao Yan was about to return home in vain, the corners of his eyes that flickered randomly suddenly stopped.
Looking through the transparent counter, Xiao Yan stared at a light yellow block in the corner. After a while, he licked his lips, walked into the counter casually, lowered his head, and looked at the piece again.
Light yellow object.
"Ahem...please help me take this thing out."
Slowly withdrawing his greedy and excited eyes, Xiao Yan raised his head and smiled at a male clerk who came over.
The young clerk who was stopped glanced sideways at Xiao Yan, who was wearing ordinary clothes, and then took a look at the item he requested. After discovering that it was just a piece of the lowest-grade yellow lotus essence, he immediately curled his lips impatiently, his face stiff.
He took it out from the counter: "Huanglian essence, low-level medicinal materials, one hundred gold coins."
Not caring about the clerk's condescending attitude, Xiao Yan sneered in his heart, and casually took the piece of yellow lotus essence, which was considered to be the lowest grade, and lightly scratched it with his fingernails, revealing the slightly yellowish surface.
Opening Xiao Xu, a bright red color like blood was revealed. Looking at the hard-to-see bright red, the corners of Xiao Yan's eyes twitched slightly, and then he touched his nose without leaving any trace, and took a deep sniff of the blood on his fingers.
The strange and somewhat bloody smell suddenly made a strange light dance in the depths of his eyes.
"It is indeed it, Blood Lotus Essence!"
When Xiao Yan was excited, Yao Lao's slightly surprised voice suddenly sounded in his heart.
"Little guy, you seem to be very lucky to encounter this rare medicinal herb!"
