Chapter 13: Life essence
"Hum hum"
A wild boar with bright red hair, more than one meter high and three meters long, is running wild in the jungle.
This beast is called the red-haired wild boar. Although it is not a first-level monster, it is very close. Sometimes some weaker first-level monsters are unwilling to provoke this beast.
There was a wound on the neck of this red-haired wild boar. At this moment, it was bleeding, and as it ran all the way, a lot of blood was scattered.
"This animal's skin is really hard." Luo Xiu jumped and landed on the branch of a big tree.
"Boom!"
The red-haired wild boar had scarlet eyes, and his head fiercely pressed directly against the big tree. Two sharp fangs broke through the bark and inserted into the trunk.
The tree shook for a while, but Luo Xiu stood still on it, without any sway.
"A beast is a beast, stupid to death."
Luo Xiu jumped down from the tree, and at the same time raised his sword to cut at the wound on the neck of the red-haired wild boar.
The wound was caused by his previous sword, but because his sword was just an ordinary weapon, although it could hurt this beast, it couldn't kill it with one blow.
"puff!"
This sword slashed with the acceleration of the falling, and it sank vigorously, coupled with the infusion of inner Qi, the wild boar's head was chopped off, and blood was scattered all over the ground.
The two most valuable fangs got stuck in the trunk, Luo Xiu also struggled to get it out, and then collected a piece of pork before leaving quickly.
The smell of blood is easy to attract other beasts nearby, and it is the wisest choice to resolve the battle quickly.
Unknowingly, the sky has darkened, because the luxuriant branches and leaves cover, the light in the mountains and forests is even darker.
"There are no dangerous beasts around here."
Somewhere in the forest, Luo Xiu first sensed the surrounding situation, and then began to count today's harvest.
In the time of this day, he didn't encounter any monster beasts. Basically, he hunted and killed wild beasts, and his strength was at most comparable to that of a martial artist with six body refinements.
Therefore, Luo Xiu didn't use any special means to kill by relying solely on his own strength, which was a kind of tempering for himself.
Although the direct damage to the life line allows him to easily leapfrog the challenge, relatively speaking, his own fundamental strength is the most important.
Although Luo Xiu was young, he knew more about survival because of his family background.
"Generally, there are not many valuable things on beasts, but I have killed seven or eight heads this day, probably for two to three thousand taels." Luo Xiu smiled.
Although two or three thousand taels of silver is just a drop in the bucket for cultivation, it is after all the money he earned himself. He believes that as long as his strength is strong, he will definitely earn more resources.
"At night, the line of sight is affected and it is not suitable for hunting. Find a place to rest first."
After a while, Luo Xiu found a tree hole. The space inside was not large, but it was enough. This was the place he found half an hour ago. It was relatively hidden and difficult to be discovered.
After removing the Qingfeng Sword from his body, Luo Xiu reluctantly put it aside, and said in secret: "Although I use my sword to kill wild beasts this day, in fact I have never practiced swordsmanship. If I can get a swordmanship. If you want to practice cheats, that would be great."
Sitting cross-legged in the tree hole, Luo Xiu started to use the improved Yijing Bone Forging Work.
No matter when and where, there must be no slack in one's own practice. This is the criterion set by Luo Xiu for himself.
In the state of cultivating, Luo Xiu used the life and death beads to perceive the surrounding movement, and an ant crawled over, and he would clearly perceive the fluctuation of life.
The vitality of heaven and earth converges, and through the breath of breath, the pores of the whole body enter the body, condense into inner qi during the operation of the exercise, and then refine into the bones.
"Although I am already at the top of the fifth level of body refining, if I want to break through to the sixth level, according to the current situation, it will take at least three days." Luo Xiu secretly estimated that since reaching the fifth level of body refining, he began to realize himself The speed of cultivation has slowed down.
The influence of the level of gong method is second. The improved second-rank internal gong is completely enough for his current cultivation base, mainly because he does not have enough vitality for him to absorb and refine.
"Except for the pill and formation, how can I gain more vitality?" Luo Xiu's heart is full of desire, and he longs for his strength to increase faster.
"Om!..."
Suddenly, a trace of throbbing came from the Life and Death Orb in the soul. Although it was very weak, Luo Xiu was clearly aware of the subtle interaction with the Life and Death Orb.
Immediately afterwards, a stream of pure life aura converged towards him, and with the breath of cultivation, it entered the body, and the cultivation base began to climb at an extremely fast speed!
"This is..." Luo Xiu was surprised and delighted. Through the induction of the Life and Death Pearl, he got the message that what he had absorbed at this moment was the essence of life!
The essence of life is also a kind of vitality, but it is of higher quality than the ordinary vitality in the world, and the effect of absorption and refining is naturally incomparable.
"Crack!"
In just a moment, there was a crackling sound from the bones in Luo Xiu's body, and a stronger force than before emerged in his body.
"The sixth level of body refining, unexpectedly broke through to the sixth level of body refining so quickly!"
Luo Xiu opened his eyes and his face was full of surprises. The sixth level of body refining is the last state of strengthening the bones and bones. A further step is the seventh level of refining the internal organs.
"What I just absorbed was the life essence of nearby vegetation?"
At the same time, Luo Xiu also found that in his perception, the vitality of the vegetation within a radius of more than 100 meters had become much weaker.
"This is a cultivation method that is almost plundered!"
Life and death are two extremes, depriving other creatures of their lives, this is actually the power of death.
And Luo Xiu knew very well that after he merged with the Life and Death Orb, he had the characteristics of both life and death.
Life is giving and dedication, and death is destruction and deprivation!
"Since the Life and Death Orb is the Supreme Treasure, it must be an amazing thing!" Luo Xiu didn't know what the Supreme Treasure was. When he first merged the Life and Death Orb, various messages about this bead came to mind.
"Anyway, my strength can be quickly improved by this means!" The improvement in cultivation level made Luo Xiu very excited, and the problem that had been distressed was finally solved.
And he also discovered that he can not only absorb the life force of the grass and trees within a range of 100 meters, as long as all the life forms within this range will be deprived of the life force and converge towards him during his exercise.
It's just different from the vegetation. Those animals find that their lives have been deprived and immediately flee in a panic. As long as they escape within a hundred meters of this area, they are naturally safe.
That night, the 100-meter area where Luo Xiu was located became a restricted area, and even the monster beasts that were rampant in the Shuiwu Mountains did not dare to approach it.
The cultivation level reached the sixth level of body refining, which meant that Luo Xiu had completed the stage of tempering the flesh and bones in the body refining state.
He can clearly feel the vitality of life and death hidden in the flesh and bones, and he changes his physique in a subtle way, undergoing a certain transformation.
In the next few days, Luo Xiu hunted in the area of Shuiwu Mountain. Whenever the parcel was full, he would return to Qingyun City and sell it. In five days, he made more than ten thousand taels of silver.
"Sure enough, it is very easy for a martial artist to make money. If I were a martial artist in the air and sea realm, I would definitely earn more by hunting a second-level monster."
Luo Xiu sighed and sighed, 10,000 taels of silver was unimaginable for ordinary civilians.
"But although ten thousand liang of silver is much, if it is to be used for cultivation, it is not enough."
In the past few days, Luo Xiu breathed in and absorbed the life essence in the Shuiwu Mountain, and his cultivation base steadily improved, but if he wanted to break through to the seventh level of body refining, it would not be achieved in a short time.
"Roar!"
Suddenly a beast roar echoed in the mountains and forests, even though it was far away, Luo Xiu was roared by the shaking eardrums, and his blood floated.
"Monster beast! And it's not an ordinary monster beast!" Luo Xiu couldn't help being a little surprised.
Leaping up, Luo Xiu hurried to the direction where the roar of the beast came from.
After a while, he saw a tiger beast with blue and white hair, nearly two meters in height and more than four meters in length.
The tiger beast's tail flicked, smashing the rocks beside it like steel.
"Iron Tail Demon Tiger!"
Recognizing the origin of this tiger beast, Luo Xiu couldn't help but stare.
At the same level, whether it is a monster or a warrior, there are high and low strengths. For example, the first level monster is divided into four levels: normal, medium, peak, and top.
And this iron-tailed tiger demon is the first-level peak demon beast, and the Ninth Level of Body Refining will retreat when encountering it.
If it is a top-level first-level monster, even its strength can be comparable to a martial artist in the Qi Sea Realm.
And in Luo Xiu's perception, the life aura of this iron-tailed tiger demon was extremely strong, burning like a torch.
At the same time, Luo Xiu also found several people hiding nearby. Although these people hid well, they couldn't hide their breath of life, and they couldn't hide in Luo Xiu's perception.
"Wow!"
A black light flew out through the air, accompanied by the trembling of the bowstring.
Luo Xiu squinted his eyes, and could only see the black light flying out, which was an arrow!
"These six people should be a hunting team, to hunt down this iron-tailed tiger demon!" Luo Xiu secretly said in his heart.
"puff!"
The arrow's penetrating power is extremely strong, and the Iron Tail Tiger Demon is unprepared. The relatively fragile neck is pierced by the arrow, and blood splashes.
"Wow!"
The iron-tailed tiger demon roared angrily, a pair of scarlet eyes glanced around, found the person shooting the arrow, and then roared and rushed out for the first time.
"Beasts die!"
At this moment, a burly man with a double axe in his hand rushed out from a bush next to him and faced the Irontail Tiger Demon.
Immediately afterwards, other people hiding nearby also filed out and besieged the tiger demon at the top level.
Five-person siege and one long-range bow and arrow shooting are the most commonly used hunting mode for hunter teams.
"Boom!"
The tiger demon flicked his tail, and the air slapped like a steel tail made a popping sound.
The headed burly man fought hard with a double axe in his hand, but he flew out with a bang, hit a big tree with his back, bleeding from the corner of his mouth.
"Big Brother!" Seeing that the strongest man was knocked into the air, the other four people suddenly screamed.
"Brothers, be careful of this beast's tail!" With a loud roar, the burly man slew towards the iron-tailed tiger demon again.
The strength of this burly man is eightfold body refining, splitting out with two axes, and fighting with the iron-tailed tiger demon.
"Swish! Swish! Swish!..."
One by one, black light arrows flew out, pointing directly at the key point of the Iron Tail Tiger Demon's neck.
However, the iron-tailed tiger demon was very fast. Except for the first sneak attack, the other arrows either missed, or even if they hit the tiger demon, they couldn't break the tough fur.
"puff!"
The tiger demon rushed angrily, threw a warrior to the ground, his claws moved, and the flesh and blood of the person's body was torn, and he died on the spot.
As for other people's attacks, it swept its iron tail and swept it, and blocked it all.
"hooligan!"
The burly man and others have a canthus.
