Lu Kun looked at this scene, his eyes darkened, his head was dizzy, the blood vessels in his arms burst, and the throbbing pain came again. In addition, there were also traces of blood on many skin surfaces.
Blood.
In his desperation just now, he continued to fight before his body could recover from the explosive step, which not only triggered hidden physical dangers in his body, but also caused muscle damage, so he sat cross-legged and circulated the breath of life in his body to heal his injuries.
Not long after, Lu Kun opened his eyes and looked at his body. A hint of joy flashed in his eyes: "This battle has made some progress in my physical body. I should be close to a breakthrough."
Then he looked at the body of the black snake and found that the little monkey was holding a stone in his hand and smashing the scales on the snake's belly with all his strength. He suddenly felt dumbfounded and got up and walked over.
This black snake is over a foot long, only a little bigger than the snake yesterday, but its scales are several times harder and even an ordinary knife cannot cut it.
Lu Kun took advantage of the fact that there was still some life breath in his body, and struck the little monkey with Yuanbao Qi next to where he hit it. The snake's body was suddenly broken into two sections.
"Hey, this snake's defense is greatly reduced after death?"
The little monkey was so excited that he rushed forward, took out a green snake gall from the fracture, and swallowed it.
"You guy, didn't you say it was useful to me? Why did you eat it yourself? Spit it out quickly!"
When Lu Kun saw this scene, he immediately grabbed the little monkey and shook it.
"Zhizhi~zhi!" The little monkey shook his head and pointed to another place on the snake's body.
"You said what I want is here?"
Seeing its affirmative expression, Lu Kun put the little monkey down and used his last strength to fight it out, causing the snake's body to break apart again.
"What's this?"
At the break of the snake's body, a small stone with dark red brilliance appeared, about the size of a palm. When Lu Kun took it in his hand, his expression was stunned.
"The breath of life! This stone is actually filled with the breath of life!"
"It's a little different. This stone gives me a hot feeling. Little monkey, is this what you are talking about?"
"Zhizhi~"
The little monkey kept nodding and looked at the stones with eager eyes.
"Try using it to practice tomorrow."
After speaking, Lu Kun began to deal with the black snake, intending to remove the snake's head and take away most of the snake's meat. This snake is so powerful, and the essence in the meat is much stronger than ordinary beasts.
They began to carry the snake meat back to the river respectively. Before leaving, Lu Kun thought about it and wrapped the snake's head with a piece of cloth.
That night, one person and one monkey continued to taste snake meat by the river. The taste of this exotic snake meat was particularly delicious. After eating, Lu Kun felt that his energy and blood were a little stronger, and his physical strength seemed to be better.
…
The next morning, Lu Kun held a small stone in his hand and began to practice the breath of life. He soon felt a hot breath of life passing from the stone into his body, and the amount was much larger than usual.
The little gray monkey beside him was also sitting cross-legged next to Lu Kun, with a serious look on his face, as if he was also practicing, but the wagging tail revealed his mood.
An hour later, Lu Kun finished his training. He opened his eyes and was filled with surprise. The breath of life he had cultivated this time was almost half of what it was on the day it broke out. It was these breaths of life that had a fiery feeling.
A little bit unaccustomed to it.
"I never thought a monkey like you could find treasures!"
"Squeak!" the little monkey was extremely proud.
After half a day, the cycle of the breath of life is completed. Practicing with this stone for half a day is equivalent to a week of hard training.
But the strange thing is that the strengthened body doesn't have any fiery energy at all.
"Zhizhi~" Hearing the little monkey's cry, Lu Kun found that it was easier to understand its meaning today.
"Yes, this thing of yours is indeed very useful for my cultivation!"
"By the way, I was pretending to practice under the waterfall that day. How did you know that I was going to ambush you?"
His relationship with the little monkey became very harmonious in the past two days, so he asked about the doubts in his heart.
"Zhizhi~zhi!"
When he saw the little monkey, he pointed to his ears and then his head, feeling extremely proud.
"You said you could hear me talking to myself from far away, so you tricked me!"
Lu Kun was stunned when he heard what he heard. He could hear his own mumblings despite being hundreds of feet away and the noise of the waterfall. He was really a strange monkey.
He touched the monkey's ears and blond hair with emotion, "Although you have gray hair, you have a bunch of golden hair on your head. I will call you 'Xiao Jin' from now on!"
"Xiao Jin" slapped his hand in anger and jumped away, not satisfied with the name. His expression made Lu Kun laugh.
In the next few days, with the help of this stone, Lu Kun's Vajra Secret Art slowly approached the third level. On the day of the outbreak, he borrowed the black snake's tree hole to try to break through, and asked Xiao Jin to help him protect the law.
As soon as he started practicing, Lu Kun felt an even stronger breath of fiery life pouring out of the stone and rushing into his body happily. He was almost shocked by this scene and stopped practicing. It took him a long time to calm down.
Xiao Jin, who was outside the cave, immediately felt the difference. He ran to the entrance of the cave and stared closely. Lu Kun did not pause after practicing the Breath of Life and started to cycle directly.
The amount this time was at least a hundred times greater than usual, flushing his body crazily. With every cycle, Lu Kun felt the scorching heat begin to penetrate into his body, and his skin began to turn slightly red.
After not circulating for long, he easily broke through the bottleneck and entered the third level. It seemed that the bottleneck on this level did not exist and it was extremely easy.
After a long time, Lu Kun slowly opened his eyes and saw Xiao Jin looking into the cave with wide eyes. He couldn't help but smile:
"Xiao Jin, if it weren't for the stone you found, I wouldn't have been able to break through so quickly. I have to reward you well."
"Zhizhi!" Xiao Jin looked proud and pointed at the stone.
"You want this stone?"
Lu Kun thought for a while and threw the stone over. If the little monkey found this kind of stone once, it would naturally be able to find it a second time.
"Squeak!"
After Xiao Jin got the stone, he was very excited and kept doing somersaults.
Next, Lu Kun began to feel the difference in his body.
"The physical body has been strengthened again, its strength and defense have been greatly enhanced, and the tendon nodes of the muscles have also begun to change, allowing the body's explosive power to increase again."
Then he circulated the Yuan Dynasty force in his body. When he felt a trace of fire, he punched the branch outside the cave. The branch broke directly, and the fracture was filled with black ashes, as if it was burned.
.
"My strength was normal a few days ago, but it changed today? Is it because of the energy in the stone?"
This fiery power reminded Lu Kun of the Yuanhuo Waterfall Fist. The two were somewhat similar, but the power was different by countless times. The Yuanhuo Waterfall Fist in the parchment produced a scorching fire that could melt iron.
.
"Consolidate your cultivation for two more days and then return to Huayuan City. I don't know if the junior brothers are back."
