In desperation, Lu Feng only felt that the essence formation in his life soul trembled, and a strange feeling came over him. Then he instinctively slipped under the Nether Leopard at an extremely strange angle, and flicked it to the open space with his palm.
.
Finally mastered the second level of Linglong Step!
Lu Feng has been practicing this footwork for three years. It is known as the most powerful life-saving footwork for formation masters. However, Lu Feng has been stuck in the first stage for three years, but fortunately he broke through at the critical moment.
There are four realms of Linglong Steps. The first level is called 'Piercing Flowers and Wrapping Trees'. Lu Feng originally practiced this level and practiced for more than a year in the 'Flower Sea Fantasy Array' set up by Bai Lao before he could achieve it.
The flowers will not touch you, and to reach this point is just to meet Linglong's standards for entry.
In Bai Lao's words, the sea of flowers is dead, and the trajectory of falling flowers can be easily judged. At this level, passing through flowers can be achieved by any advanced body skill. Linglong Step is really powerful.
The difference lies in the next three realms: walking with shadows, white dew across the river, and controlling the wind with nothingness.
Just now, Lu Feng has broken through and mastered the second level of realm, Shadow Step! In this level, he can already capture the dynamic 'sea of flowers' and find opportunities in the enemy's changing offensive.
Use force to dodge.
The standard for the perfection of this realm is to use force without leaving any trace, and use the enemy's power to dodge without being noticed by the enemy.
With the blessing of the second level of exquisite steps, Lu Feng instantly became confident. He opened his bow while running, and shot several arrows at the Nether Leopard.
"Well done!"
Huo Gen watched this scene with great joy and praised loudly, not only because Lu Feng saved his life by escaping from danger, but also because he did not escape the first moment he escaped from danger but quickly stood firm on the ground to fight back. This
His courage is truly admirable.
Although Lu Feng's arrow's accuracy was a little off, it was enough at the moment.
A series of arrows did not cause any real damage to the Nether Leopard, but they restricted its route, which was equivalent to trapping it in place for an instant and making it a living target.
And how could Huo Gen, who has an extremely precise grasp of timing, fail to seize this moment.
Draw the bow and nock an arrow.
Right eye, front paw, nape of neck...
Fire Root fired several arrows instantly. Compared to Lu Feng, who used a heavy bow, his strength and accuracy were much stronger, and the restricted Nether Leopard was absolutely unable to dodge these arrows.
Hit by an arrow, injured!
It would be much easier to deal with a seriously injured Nether Leopard while it is sick and kills it.
Lu Feng and Huo Gen cooperated very well with each other. They shot, distanced themselves, shot again, and distanced themselves again...
Soon the Nether Leopard's body was covered with arrow feathers, and it finally fell to the ground dying.
The two of them looked at the dead Nether Leopard and smiled knowingly. They both looked very tired, but more of them felt the joy of being reborn after the disaster.
"Although it is only a first-level spiritual beast, it has many treasures," Huo Gen said eagerly.
Indeed, the treasures contained in even the most rudimentary spiritual beasts can allow ordinary people to live a short and prosperous life.
Once a beast absorbs a certain amount of spiritual energy from heaven and earth, it will evolve into a spirit beast, and spirit beasts also have strict levels. From one to nine, the higher the level of the spirit beast, the more powerful it is.
When Lu Feng saw the lines on the Nether Leopard's body flashing with light, he determined that there must be a beast elixir in its body, which was the most obvious feature of a spiritual beast.
The beast elixir of a spiritual beast contains part of the energy it possessed during its lifetime and some violent spiritual energy of heaven and earth. It can be used by humans through some special methods. For example, it can be refined into elixirs, which can also be used as the center of formations. What's more, through secret methods, you can directly absorb the energy in the beast elixir and use it for your own cultivation.
After confirming that the Nether Leopard was completely dead, the two moved it to a safe place, and Huogen stepped forward to dissect it.
Huo Gen took out a dagger from his arms, stabbed the Nether Leopard in the abdomen, cut its fur, and then stretched out his hand to pull out the beast elixir from its body.
"Take this, sell it, or keep it for yourself." Huo Gen smiled and handed the beast elixir in his hand to Lu Feng.
Because he reached into the belly of the Nether Leopard with his bare hands, Huo Gen's hands were covered with blood and had a strong fishy smell, but it was these filthy hands that held a sparkling bead.
The beads have the same patterns as those on the Nether Leopard, emitting a blue-black light.
Lu Feng did not reach out to pick it up, nor did he want to pick it up, because it was Huo Gen who risked his life to hunt, and this treasure naturally belongs to him.
"Take it, it's of no use if it's left in the village."
Huo Gen seemed to understand Lu Feng's thoughts, and said again, and then shook him over.
Lu Feng no longer hesitated and carefully took the beast elixir, and cast a grateful look at Huo Gen.
This beast pill Lu Feng is really useful. When he came out of Linglong Valley this time, he only brought some unread formation books. As for the materials for setting up the formation, such as jade, the two old men didn't give them anything. In their words, jade is too expensive and the inventory in the valley is gone.
Lu Feng naturally didn't believe this, so whenever he saw any materials that could be used to set up formations, he cherished them very much.
Fire Root is still processing the body of the Nether Leopard. In addition to the beast elixir, there are many treasures on its body. Its sharp claws can be made into simple claw weapons; its body bones can be polished into tools; its tendons have good The toughness can be made into bow strings...
"It's a good material. When I get back, I will use this Nether Leopard to make a bow and arrow that is more suitable for you." Huo Gen said while holding the elastic in his hand.
Lu Feng smiled gratefully and asked casually: "Brother Huogen, where did you learn this magical skill of bow and arrow?"
"It has been handed down from our ancestors that our village had a very remarkable person a long time ago," Huo Gen said with some admiration and admiration.
Since it was passed down from his ancestors, Lu Feng couldn't ask any more questions.
The two of them dealt with it briefly and carried the remaining leopard meat back. The dead leopard, which weighed hundreds of kilograms, was very tiring for Lu Feng and the two of them.
In order to avoid causing a sensation, the two quietly handled the leopard after returning to the village, and the villagers just regarded it as an ordinary wild leopard.
In the following period, Lu Feng spent the day hunting with Huo Gen and learning archery, and at night he taught Huo Niu Huo Yu stories about the mainland and some cultivation experiences.
Huo Gen, on the other hand, was constantly collecting materials from the prey to help Lu Feng build a suitable bow and arrow.
But what puzzled Lu Feng was that Huo Niu had clearly reached adulthood and had no abnormality in his physical condition, but he still had not awakened his life soul, even with Lu Feng's help.
This made Lu Feng very puzzled, but he didn't know where the problem was.
Beside the fire, everyone gathered around and chatted.
Huo Niu asked with some frustration: "Brother Lu Feng, do you think I won't be able to awaken my soul?"
"Don't worry, although there are people who can't awaken their souls, you don't belong to that type of person." Lu Feng comforted him. It would be fine if he really couldn't awaken his souls, but Lu Feng felt the spiritual energy in Huo Niu's body.
The presence.
Huo Niu didn't seem to hear Lu Feng's words clearly, and muttered: "People who can't awaken their souls..." as if they were demented.
Huo Niu, who had great longing and expectation for the soul cultivator, could not accept the current situation of "the soul cannot awaken", so he yelled like crazy, and then ran towards the village ancestral hall.
Huo Gen, who had just helped Lu Feng build a bow and arrow and went out, happened to see this scene and asked with concern: "What is Huo Niu doing?"
"The Soul of Life is still awake, and I'm a little unhappy," Lu Feng explained.
"It's okay. Every time he is unhappy, this kid always goes to the ancestral hall, smells the scent of incense and candles and then comes out." Huo Gen smiled and then handed a newly made bow in his hand to Lu Feng.
Huogen spent a long time collecting and building this bow, spending countless efforts. Lu Feng saw all this, so he cherished this new bow very much.
After taking it with both hands, Lu Feng looked at this bow that belonged to him. From its appearance, it could not be seen that it came from a mountain village. It was very exquisite in appearance, without any rough edges. The bow was completely black, compared to the Nether Leopard.
The coat color is much darker, without any cold light, and can be well hidden in the dark night.
The bow is a simple bow, without any bells and whistles. It is mainly practical. There are some special patterns engraved on it, which are somewhat similar to the patterns on the Nether Leopard Beast Pill, but not exactly the same. Based on Lu Feng's knowledge
It's a little bit hard to see through.
The color of the bow string is a little red, like dried blood. The red and black look a bit eerie, but it seems that it cannot be perfectly hidden in the dark night.
"Try to fully draw the bow," Huo Gen said somewhat proudly, as if he knew what Lu Feng was thinking.
Lu Feng listened and obeyed.
I saw that the originally weird blood-red bow string was gradually swallowed up by the darkness as the bow was stretched, and finally turned into a black color like the bow body. It was really strange!
The moment the bow was filled, Lu Feng smelled a strange fragrance, which seemed to be emanating from the bow in his hand.
Lu Feng's face was full of surprise, he looked at Huogen and asked.
"Haha~ It's just some tricks in the mountains." Huo Gen smiled proudly: "I soaked the originally red bowstring with the 'Qilang grass' in the village, and it blended with the leopard blood stained on it.
Such a phenomenon will occur.”
"Brother Huo Gen, thank you very much." Lu Feng thanked him sincerely, keeping Huo Gen's thoughts deeply in his heart.
"Since it is your bow, give it a name," Huo Gen said.
"Since he came because of the Nether Leopard, let's call him Nether Bow." Lu Feng thought for a while and said.
Just when they wanted to further communicate the magic of this bow, there was a sudden loud noise, and then they saw billowing smoke coming from the ancestral hall in the distance.
"Why did the ancestral hall collapse?" A villager in the distance shouted in horror.
"Brother Huo Niu is still inside," Huo Yu said worriedly when he heard that, his little face was full of fear and he looked like he was about to cry.
"Let's go over and have a look," Huo Gen said anxiously and ran over.
Lu Feng put the Netherworld Bow into the Qilin Ring, placed it in the same space as the Netherworld Beast Pill, and followed closely behind.
The sudden collapse of the ancestral hall brought a bad premonition to every villager. After all, the ancestral hall was used to worship ancestors, and the collapse of the ancestral hall was an ominous sign.
When Lu Feng and Huo Gen arrived, many villagers had already gathered around the entrance of the ancestral hall, and everyone was looking around.
"Give way, give way..." Huo Gen pushed his way into the crowd, followed by Lu Feng.
The dust gradually dispersed, and everyone present looked incredulous.
There is no shadow of the ancestral hall, instead there is a huge steep-shaped cave, which is unfathomable and looks a bit eerie.
