If it were a normal breakthrough, it wouldn't take more than a month and a half for Qin Xuan to reach the fifth level of the cave. But with this starlight grass, he could break through tonight!
Such a sharp contrast made Qin Xuan decide that he must collect this starlight grass!
Qin Xuan carefully checked the bottom of the cliff, and finally discovered the existence of a vicious beast in a patch of grass!
It's a black python!
He could only see a little shadow of the black python, but when Qin Xuan used the scanning function to scan that area into his eyes, he was shocked.
The length of this black python actually reached more than thirteen meters, which is more than four feet. Its body is as thick as an adult's thigh, and its black scales are like a layer of armor!
It’s the top mid-level ferocious beast—the black-scaled python!
The black-scaled python's scale skin has high defensive power and can block swords. It is also fast and flexible, making it difficult for sixth-level warriors to defeat it. It can be regarded as an overlord among intermediate-level ferocious beasts.
However, the power of the black-scaled python lies in its body. As long as Qin Xuan stands far away, the powerful strength of the black-scaled python will be completely useless.
Qin Xuan took out a cauldron bow, attached three sound-breaking arrows, stood on the cliff, and fired at the black-scaled python from a distance of more than 300 steps!
Just as the three sound-breaking arrows left the string, Qin Xuan took out three more and continued shooting.
The black-scaled python was entrenched here. No intermediate ferocious beast dared to challenge it. At this time, it was attacked. It immediately twisted its huge body and quickly killed Qin Xuan on the cliff.
However, even though the black-scaled python's scale-skinned sword is difficult to damage, it cannot block the penetration of sharp arrows.
In particular, Qin Xuan's skills in spinning archery have reached perfection, and when he shoots them with a tripod bow, the power of the arrows is even more terrifying.
Qin Xuan shot four times in a row, shooting a total of twelve arrows. The black-scaled python soon died and twisted on the ground.
Three were deflected by the scales, six broke through the scales and caused minor injuries, and three broke through the scales and penetrated seven inches of vital organs, causing serious injuries.
After the black-scaled python was completely dead, Qin Xuan shot another arrow to confirm, and then came down from the cliff.
The black-scaled python has no ears. Although it is a top-level intermediate beast, it cannot get a score, but Qin Xuan has no regrets at all. This starlight grass is much more precious than the score of a top-level mid-level beast.
Qin Xuan plucked the Starlight Grass and was very happy in his heart. He broke through the fifth level of the Cave Mystery tonight!
Night is the time for ferocious beasts to be active!
When the sky turned completely dark, Qin Xuan was already in the cave he dug.
Qin Xuan sat cross-legged, and after calming down his mind, he took out six Chinese medicinal herbs that greatly replenished Qi and blood.
He planned to practice the low-grade body-training technique Qingpi Jue to perfection first, and then take Starlight Grass to upgrade his cultivation to the fifth level of Dongxuan.
The fifth level of Dongxuan is to refine the inner energy into the flesh and blood, and it is also a process of strengthening the body. The body of a fifth-level warrior is not much different from the body of a low-level body-training technique!
Therefore, if you first raise your cultivation level to the fifth level and then practice the Green Skin Jue, your body's maximum strength will only reach the point where the Green Skin Jue is perfected.
However, if one first practices the Green Skin Technique to perfection, strengthens the body, and then refines the internal energy into the flesh and blood, the body's strength will have another opportunity to strengthen. Compared with breaking through the fifth level first, and then cultivating the Green Skin Technique to a perfect body,
More powerful.
After eating a Chinese herbal medicine that can greatly replenish qi and blood, Qin Xuan uses the Qingpi Jue to absorb it into the flesh and blood and strengthen the body.
Qin Xuan's Green Skin Technique was improved by Tianyan based on a variety of low-grade body-training techniques. It allows the body to better absorb nutrients and practice faster!
As time passed by, Qin Xuan's body was strengthening every moment.
Half an hour later, Qin Xuan took the second Chinese medicinal herb that greatly replenished qi and blood, and an hour later, he took the third one...
Nearly three hours had passed, and before the sixth Chinese medicinal herb that greatly replenished qi and blood was taken, Qin Xuan had already perfected the Qingpi Jue.
Although the Green Skin Technique also strengthens the muscles, the most important thing is to strengthen the skin. The Perfect Flame Breaking Fist strengthens the bones. Now Qin Xuan's bones inside and the skin outside have reached the point of being extremely tough, and the inside and outside are in harmony.
The foundation of the body is very solid.
Even if they are both at the fourth level of Dongxuan and have perfected the Green Skin Technique, they have not refined all the bones in their body, and their overall physical strength cannot compare with Qin Xuan.
After practicing Qingpi Jue to perfection, Qin Xuan still took the remaining Chinese medicine that greatly replenishes Qi and blood!
There is almost no end to the cultivation of the physical body. If you practice the middle-grade body-training exercises to perfection, there are also middle-grade body-training exercises!
The middle-level body-refining technique that Qin Xuan practices is the Bronze Technique!
This is a physical training method that involves the whole body's muscles, bones, flesh, and skin. However, when it comes to local area training, it is not as good as professional training in one location.
For example, when it comes to bone training alone, it is not as good as the Perfect Flame Breaking Fist, and when it comes to skin training alone, it is not as good as the Green Skin Technique!
But the Bronze Jue can coordinate the power of Qin Xuan's entire body and burst out with even more powerful power.
Qin Xuan's physical body is already perfect according to the Green Skin Jue, but it is not yet at the level of Dacheng according to the Bronze Jue.
The practice of body-refining techniques is not only affected by talent, but the main reason is resources. As long as there are enough medicinal materials to replenish qi and blood, even with average talent, one can practice body-refining techniques to a high level.
A Chinese medicinal herb is just a drop in the bucket for the cultivation of Bronze Jue. It is far from enough. It only brings Bronze Jue a small step closer to the realm of Dacheng!
Feeling the power in his body, Qin Xuan had a smile on his lips, it was time to improve his cultivation.
It was already late at night, but Qin Xuan was not tired at all. He calmed down for a while, waited for his emotions to calm down, and then took the Starlight Grass.
Starlight Grass contains the powerful power of stars, and Qin Xuan immediately felt it. The Beidou Gong, a top-grade exercise, began to operate, and the ten meridians in his body began to absorb the power of stars.
The Heavenly Eye scanned the dantian, and four star rings were bright. Outside the four star rings, there was soon a fifth ring pattern that was almost void. As it absorbed the star power of the Star Light Grass, the fifth ring pattern appeared.
Gradually solidified.
Half an hour later, the fifth ring pattern was completely solidified, and then it emitted starlight and turned into the fifth star ring.
Qin Xuan's cultivation level broke through and he entered the fifth level of Dongxuan!
At this time, the inner energy that had already been filled with the ten meridians was finally no longer suppressed by cultivation and found an outlet. Like a river with no embankment, it rushed out of the ten meridians and merged into the flesh and blood.
The three realms of a warrior, the fourth level, fifth level, and sixth level of Dongxuan, and the areas where the inner strength is located are all different.
For fourth-level warriors, the internal energy is only located in the meridians. For fifth-level warriors, the internal energy is refined into the flesh and blood. For sixth-level warriors, the internal energy is refined into the skin. It is a process from the inside out.
When it reaches the seventh level of Dongxuan, the inner energy can penetrate beyond the skin membrane and hurt people through the air!
After breaking through the fifth level of cultivation, there was still a lot of starlight herbal power left in his body. Qin Xuan continued to use Beidou Gong to refine and absorb it, using his inner energy to strengthen his flesh and blood, and consolidate his cultivation at the fifth level of Dongxuan.
When the Starlight Grass is completely absorbed, Qinxuan Dongxuan's cultivation at the fifth level has been very consolidated, and it is not too far away from the middle stage of the fifth level.
Qin Xuan is happy in his heart. No matter he wins or loses in this hunting competition, he is the big winner. With the cultivation of the fifth level of Dongxuan, perfect Qingpi Jue, various martial arts, and perfect Qinggong and Shenfa, Qin Xuan is already confident, and with the sixth level
Warriors show off!
Among the younger generations of warriors in Xianyang City, even if he is not the first, he is not far behind. If he can also practice the middle-grade body-refining technique Bronze Jue to perfection, then Qin Xuan is fully confident in defeating Gu Yijian and Liu Chengji.
A proud man who had already entered the sixth level of Dongxuan half a year ago!
"My cultivation has reached the fifth level, and it is even easier to hunt top-level intermediate ferocious beasts. In this hunting competition, if I hunt more top-level intermediate ferocious beasts, I don't believe that Xuan Yu Sect can't get first place!"
Qin Xuan thought to himself that it was already the middle of the night. He meditated for a while in the cave and then fell asleep.
In the early morning of the next day, Qin Xuan had already woken up. Although he didn't sleep much, he was full of energy and fighting spirit, and felt that his body was full of strength!
Qin Xuan removed the huge stone blocking the entrance of the cave, walked out of the cave, breathed in the fresh air in the forest, and had a happy smile on his face!
In just one night, his cultivation level has been promoted to the fifth level of Dongxuan, and the green skin technique has also been cultivated to a perfect state. Qin Xuan's mood is naturally very happy!
"The real hunting starts today!"
Qin Xuan said in his heart, holding a cauldron bow, striding forward and continuing to go deeper into the Qingyun Mountains.
Yesterday, Qin Xuan was mainly on the road and only killed the ferocious beasts when he saw the medicinal materials. Today, his main purpose was to kill the ferocious beasts.
His target is a top-level intermediate ferocious beast equivalent to a sixth-level warrior!
Whoosh——
The arrow left the string, shot out of the air, and made a loud sound!
In the blink of an eye, five hundred steps in front of Qin Xuan, a saber-toothed tiger suddenly fell to the ground and twitched. The saber-toothed tiger was shot into its vitals by an arrow and suffered fatal injuries!
When the saber-toothed tiger stopped twitching, Qin Xuan added another arrow to make sure it was dead. He neatly came to the saber-toothed tiger and cut off its left ear!
This is a top-level intermediate ferocious beast that is equivalent to a sixth-level warrior, but it cannot stop Qin Xuan's arrow.
Qin Xuan's cultivation level has improved, his inner strength is stronger, and the arrows he shoots are more powerful. Even if he encounters the overlord-level black-scaled python among the intermediate ferocious beasts again, Qin Xuan will kill him with at most three or five arrows.
…
The death of the saber-toothed tiger is just a microcosm of Qin Xuan's hunting of ferocious beasts. He walked in the Qingyun Mountains like a king in the jungle. As long as there were not groups of ferocious beasts, it was basically impossible to escape Qin Xuan's shooting.
In just half a day, Qin Xuan had already hunted ten intermediate-level ferocious beasts, more than half of which were top-notch intermediate ferocious beasts equivalent to the sixth level. The rest of the ferocious beasts all had the strength of fifth-level warriors.
At noon, Qin Xuan, who had already penetrated deep into the Qingyun Mountains, suddenly looked wary.
Deep in the Qingyun Mountains, he unexpectedly met other warriors!
Moreover, he was not an elite young man participating in a hunting competition, but a middle-aged man in his forties.
This is a bit weird!
During the ten days when the three major sects held hunting competitions, warriors from Xianyang City were prohibited from entering the Qingyun Mountains. Warriors from Xianyang City did not dare to confront the three major sects.
Then, this middle-aged man is either a warrior from another city or a warrior from Xianyang City. He disobeyed the orders of the three major sects and must have a purpose in entering the Qingyun Mountains.
In the area where Qin Xuan is located, there are many top-notch intermediate-level ferocious beasts. Even if a sixth-level warrior comes, he must be careful. If something goes wrong, he can easily become the food of the monster!
Since the middle-aged man dared to come here, he was obviously not an ordinary warrior, and Qin Xuan did not want to meet him.
Seeing that the middle-aged man was coming in the direction where he was, Qin Xuan deliberately changed his direction and walked elsewhere.
After walking for a while, Qin Xuan turned around and glanced behind him, and found that the middle-aged man had also changed direction and was coming this way.
Um--?
This made Qin Xuan a little vigilant, and he used the Feihong technique to speed up and leave.
When the middle-aged man behind him also used Qing Kung and accelerated his speed to catch up, Qin Xuan understood that this middle-aged man was coming towards him.
