Chapter 1435, Howling
Amidst the muffled sound, the demon wolf let out a mournful cry, its body twisted, and it retreated with a howl. Its body was scorched black, its fur fell off, and it was dripping with blood. It was extremely miserable.
"Well, the strength of this wolf is equivalent to the third level of a martial artist, and it should be almost the same." Zhou Yan muttered to himself.
"Since you want to eat me, then I will eat you."
Immediately, Zhou Yan's eyes were cold, and his figure exploded, like a fierce beast, he rushed forward, grabbed the giant wolf's neck, and tore it hard.
what!
A series of sharp neighing sounds came from the wolf's mouth, the sound was so shrill that it made people's scalp go numb.
Soon, the demon wolf was completely silent, and was bitten to death by Zhou Yan, eating the essence of flesh and blood.
rumbling~
Suddenly, a thick bloody aura diffused from the giant wolf's corpse, turning into a cloud of bloody mist, tumbling and turbulent, like a tide like a waterfall.
Zhou Yan was overjoyed, and hurriedly opened his mouth to swallow this cloud of blood energy.
The evil spirit of blood is a great tonic for any warrior.
In particular, Zhou Yan practiced a special technique, devouring the evil spirit of blood, with excellent efficiency.
Not long after, the bloody aura dissipated, and Zhou Yan's cultivation went further, reaching the ninth level of martial arts!
"Ha ha……"
Zhou Yan looked up to the sky and smiled, feeling extremely happy in his heart: "Unexpectedly, one day of practicing here is two or three days worse than the outside world."
"No wonder, those warriors are willing to fight desperately."
Under normal circumstances, it would take a year of hard work for the Ninth Level of Martial Apprentice before he could be promoted to the level of Martial Master.
But here, it can be done in just a few days, and the cultivation speed is faster.
"but……"
After calming down a little, Zhou Yan frowned again, with doubts on his face: "Why is this relic space not under my control?"
According to memory, there should be a seal here to prohibit warriors from entering.
However, now it seems that there is obviously no seal arranged in this ruins.
Zhou Yan observed carefully and confirmed that there was no problem before stepping out of the tomb.
Click!
As soon as he went out, a shadow struck and enveloped Zhou Yan.
"What the hell!"
Zhou Yan let out a low cry, stretched out his hand and slapped it, his palm was strong and fierce.
Boom!
In an instant, a ferocious wolf's head hit the hard wall, the blood burst, and the wolf's head shattered.
"This..." Zhou Yan was taken aback, and Dingqing was relieved after seeing it.
It turned out that it was a gray mouse, fluffy and chubby, running up and down, with small eyes rolling around, looking at Zhou Yan vigilantly.
The mouse, with black and shiny hair, and the tip of its tail curled up, showed a look of disdain, squeaked a few words, then slid into the cave without a trace.
"Uh... this mouse is pretty smart."
Zhou Yan couldn't help laughing, and immediately continued to go deep into the forest to look for prey.
Not long after, Zhou Yan stopped, feeling a little strange.
This mountain forest is full of vitality, verdant green trees, overgrown flowers and grass, all kinds of birds are flying, and the scenery is beautiful, like a paradise.
However, Zhou Yan discovered that some of the nearby vegetation had withered, turned yellow, and even rotted, giving off a stench.
"what happened……"
Zhou Yan frowned, looked around, and vaguely guessed.
"Could it be that I stumbled into a restricted area by mistake..." Zhou Yan muttered to himself.
The restricted area is a secret space left by the ancient sect forces, which is exclusively used by the disciples in the sect to practice. It is far more dangerous than the wild, full of poisonous insects, beasts, and all kinds of rare treasures.
According to rumors, every restricted area is guarded by a peerless enemy, with boundless terror.
"Forget it, don't care about it for now."
"Get out of here first..."
Thoughts flickered, Zhou Yan looked up at the sky, only to see the sun was high, scorching hot, and it was almost noon.
"Today is the last day of the hunting conference, and there is only half a day left before the start of the selection competition." Zhou Yan murmured.
The Hunting Conference is a grand event in Qingyun County, where many martial arts disciples and strong martial artists are gathered to hold an exchange and exchange conference.
Prior to this, Zhou Yan had heard that some well-known young strongmen had already arrived at the hunting ground and were preparing to participate in the trials.
After all, the rewards for the champions of the Hunting Conference are generous, and only when they get the ranking can they be exchanged for training resources.
And these young strongmen are all the arrogance of the big families in Qingyun County, with extraordinary identities, backed by family power, and amazing wealth, they can be called the local tyrants among the local tyrants.
"Not only that, these young strong men are the pillars of Qingyun County in the future."
"As long as you win the first place in the selection competition, you will definitely be able to join a certain big family and receive preferential training."
"If you can make good friends with young strong men, your future will be limitless."
Zhou Yan's eyes rolled, his mind was active, and he quietly walked towards the hunting ground.
However, during this process, Zhou Yan encountered many ferocious beasts, but he easily dealt with them.
"Eh? There's still a elixir here?"
Along the way, Zhou Yan has gained a lot, and found many elixir, all of which are century-old and expensive, which made him ecstatic.
"Huh? Why is there a fifth-order elixir here?"
Suddenly, Zhou Yan's eyes narrowed, and he noticed a delicate and charming red lotus.
"It's really hard to find a place when you have broken through the iron shoes. It doesn't take much effort to get it." Zhou Yan was so excited that he rushed to pick it immediately.
The fifth-order elixir is rare and rare. It is worth at least five thousand taels of silver in the market, enough to buy a bottle of Body Tempering Pill.
"Wait, why is this elixir so familiar..."
Suddenly, Zhou Yan's heart trembled, his expression changed, and his eyes were fixed on Honglian, showing a look of shock.
"Isn't this Red Flame Grass?!"
Zhou Yan's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.
Red Flame Grass is a fifth-grade elixir, which is very beneficial for forging the body, and has mild attributes.
However, because of their scarcity, they are generally refined by warriors into Body Tempering Pills to enhance their physique.
In Zhou Yan's memory, his grandfather, Zhou Heng, once told him something about the Body Tempering Pill.
It is rumored that Body Tempering Pill is refined by warriors with the power of fire elements, and it contains pure fire element power. After taking it, it can improve the fire attribute physique, stimulate the martial arts talent, and then become a Famous alchemist.
This point is introduced in detail in "Body Tempering Jue", which cannot be ignored.
However, the formula of Body Tempering Pill has been lost for many years.
"Body Tempering Pill is extremely difficult to refine, you must have strong strength, otherwise, it will not be refined at all!"
Zhou Yan pondered for a moment, shook his head, and threw the red flame grass back to the ground, not intending to make alchemy.
Although, Zhou Yan's current strength is quite strong, enough to crush everyone in the same generation except his father, even his second uncle Zhou Hongyuan is ashamed.
However, Zhou Yan still knew that he still had a gap.
"The current me is still too weak, I must seize the time to improve my strength."
