It's easy to get lost in the forest, especially at night.
Xing Nan had no experience walking in the forest, so it was naturally difficult for him to tell the direction.
Worried about being overtaken by the Luo family, he started running as fast as he could until an hour and a half later, when he stopped.
"call!"
Xing Nan let out a long breath, and then said happily: "It seems that the Luo family has not come after us."
For half an hour, Xing Nan didn't know where he was now, but he estimated that he wouldn't be too far away from Wuyin Inn. After all, this was a forest rather than flat land, and his speed here was not very fast.
After thinking for a moment, he jumped onto a big tree, then flew up and jumped into the air in the forest.
He can't stay in the air yet, but he can use this short time to scan the surrounding area.
After all, Kirigakure Inn is a prosperous inn, and it has two floors and occupies a large area of land, making it conspicuous even at night.
Especially now that it is the night of the Dragon Festival, the Kirigakure Inn is brightly lit, and its outline is revealed in the distance.
Xing Nan stayed at Wuyin Inn for a long time, so he naturally knew Wuyin Inn very well. He could identify the direction by using the outline of Wuyin Inn.
After knowing the direction, continue running forward.
From the edge of the Ten Thousand Beasts Forest to a hundred miles deep, there are usually only the most common beasts, snakes and insects, which are the range of ordinary hunters' activities. Hundreds of miles is a dividing line. If you cross the hundred miles, you may encounter
Ordinary hunters would not dare to easily go deeper than a hundred miles into the Forest of Ten Thousand Beasts when encountering some monsters.
Monsters are not ferocious beasts. They know some cultivation techniques and have successfully cultivated them. Not only do they possess a certain level of strength, but they also have considerable spiritual intelligence. Some monsters are even born with powerful innate magical powers.
Even monks must be cautious when encountering monsters.
As long as you don't lose your way, it's not difficult to find the target. After all, a hundred miles is not too far.
Xing Nan, who was advancing rapidly, suddenly stopped. He suddenly turned around, frowned and squinted, and took a closer look.
He felt that he must have been targeted, but he was not too nervous because it was almost impossible to encounter powerful monsters within a hundred miles outside the Ten Thousand Beasts Forest.
The person staring at him should be a beast foraging for food at night.
Roar!
Sure enough, before he could stop for two breaths, a beast roar suddenly sounded, and then a gust of wind rushed towards him.
There was a dark beast in the direction of the strong wind. Xing Nan's eyesight was not bad, and he could clearly see that the beast was a very fast black panther.
This black panther is an extremely difficult beast to deal with on the outskirts of the Ten Thousand Beasts Forest. Even experienced hunters avoid it.
But after all, Xing Nan has a cultivation level between the eighth-grade and ninth-grade warriors, and his speed and reflexes are not weaker than a black panther.
Therefore, he did not move. When the black panther was only one foot away from him, he jumped up with both feet.
One leap was more than ten feet high, and the black panther's body was right at his feet at the moment.
His body sank, and he was riding firmly on the black panther, and then grabbed the black panther's neck with one hand.
The black panther stopped, and first tried its best to twist its body, trying to throw Xing Nan off from behind, but was unable to do so, and then slapped the back with its tail.
The black panther's tail was like a steel whip, and a single swipe could easily chop a small tree as thick as an arm in half. However, the swat on Xing Nan could only make Xing Nan feel a burst of pain.
Xing Nan didn't give the Black Panther much time to attack. He waved his fist repeatedly and hit the Black Panther on the head hard.
With just one punch, the black panther fell down with a whine.
The black panther did not die immediately, but his body was bleeding and his body was convulsing.
This black panther is of great value to ordinary hunters, but Xing Nan is not interested in it at all. After all, there is the Xing family's treasure waiting for him, and a mere black panther is not worth his effort to carry.
After a small test of his skills, Xing Nan continued to move towards his goal.
It didn't take long for him to find a creek, and standing next to the creek, he could hear the rumbling sound of water not far away.
In the direction where the sound of water comes from, there should be a waterfall!
Xing Nan suppressed the excitement in his heart and touched it carefully.
This place is already hundreds of miles deep into the Forest of Ten Thousand Beasts. If your luck is extreme, you may encounter monsters. However, Xing Nan feels that his luck has been bad.
Follow the creek and go upstream.
After walking for about a hundred breaths, he finally saw a waterfall.
This waterfall is not large in scale, only more than ten feet wide and two feet high, and the water flow is also sparse.
Of course, it is winter now, so it is reasonable that the water flow is not strong. If it were midsummer, the waterfall would probably have a different scenery.
First, he circled around the waterfall and found that there was no monster or ferocious beast stationed there. Then Xing Nan flew under the waterfall towards the water curtain of the waterfall.
The current was not strong, and there was almost no resistance for him. He easily flew behind the water curtain and clasped two protruding rocks with both hands.
Taking another glance, he saw the entrance to a cave that was not very large in the hazy night.
The entrance to the cave is only half a person tall and about a foot wide.
Xing Nan arrived at the entrance of the cave, took out the flint he had prepared, lit it, and threw it into the cave.
There was no response in the cave. Xing Nan took a look inside and found that the space inside was quite large, so he hunched over and slowly entered the cave.
The cave is so cold and damp that even snakes and insects don't want to make their home here, but there are many frozen snake and insect corpses.
Xing Nan moved forward cautiously, and spent a cup of tea before reaching the end of the cave.
I didn't see any treasures, only a stone door.
The stone door is made of very high material and looks very solid. Xing Nan tried his best but could not open the stone door.
He tried hard to attack, but with his skill, he couldn't blow open the stone door, and he couldn't even hit the hard stone wall next to the stone door.
Don't say that he is not a genuine ninth-level warrior. Even if he is a real ninth-level warrior, the spiritual energy in his body has not yet been condensed into true energy, and it will be difficult to shake the mountain rock barrier.
The warrior is just a training process that allows the body to build the foundation. Even if it reaches the ninth level, it only makes the body strong enough to accept the true energy.
"It seems that this trip was in vain. Only when you reach the realm of a martial artist, using moves triggered by true energy may be able to open this stone door."
Xing Nan seemed a little disappointed. Although he was extremely reluctant to leave, he had no choice but to retreat.
After leaving the cave and crossing the curtain of waterfall, Xing Nan looked back again, then turned around and ran towards the outside of the Forest of Ten Thousand Beasts.
Just when he left the waterfall, a ray of white light penetrated the water curtain and entered the cave.
The way back was still smooth, and when we arrived next to Kirigakure Inn, the sky was already slightly bright.
What he didn't expect was that when he jumped into his room from the window, Lehua was already in his room.
"Where have you been? I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Lehua was startled by Xing Nan, and came up to him and said, "If there is a door, you can't go through it. You have to go in and out through the window."
"Hey, I'm going out for a while. Wouldn't it be more convenient to enter and exit through the window?"
Xing Nan smiled and said something perfunctory, and then asked: "What's the important thing for you to come to me so early?"
Lehua did not ask anything about Xing Nan, but smiled and said, "I seem to have mastered the introductory cultivation techniques you taught me a few days ago."
"oh?"
Xing Nan seemed a little surprised. The introductory cultivation technique he taught Lehua was just a simple spell to guide spiritual energy into the body. But just this simple spell has stumped many monks. He never thought that Lehua had already
At just over ten years old, I was able to get started so quickly.
Most of the methods of cultivation require starting from an early age, because a child's body contains an innate energy. As the age increases, this innate energy will become weaker and weaker. However, the stronger the innate energy, the stronger the innate energy will be.
It is easy for monks to guide spiritual energy into the body, so the children of wealthy royal families and famous mountain sects usually start practicing at the age of four or five.
Lehua is already twenty years old, and his innate energy has long been returned to heaven and earth. He is still able to quickly communicate with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, which proves that his understanding and aptitude are definitely excellent.
After Xing Nan inspected Lehua's introduction of spiritual energy into his body, he was surprised and very happy at the same time. He then taught some more cultivation techniques.
Being able to draw spiritual energy into the body is only the most basic training. For Lehua, the next step is to continue to draw spiritual energy into the body to temper the muscles and bones of the body while practicing martial arts.
Xing Nan actually only has the training experience of a third-grade warrior, so he doesn't have much guidance to Lehua. He can only teach the method, and the rest depends on Lehua's ability to comprehend.
After sending Lehua away, Xing Nan began to think about his future.
For some reason, the phantom old man in the nine-ring reincarnation bracelet has not appeared again. I don’t know whether it is because he is in poor condition or because he has lost confidence and is too lazy to come out.
But no matter what, you must continue your training and reach the level of a martial artist as soon as possible.
Now that he has the physical fitness of a ninth-grade warrior, he has the foundation to challenge the level of a martial artist. He also has a sword embryo in his dantian. As long as his body is a little stronger, he can swallow the lowest sword spirit.
Then he was promoted to the martial arts level.
Then, Xing Nan thought of Dragon Elephant Kung Fu.
He has completed the basic practice of Dragon Elephant Skill, and the next step is to further practice. However, this next step of practice requires the cooperation of the flesh, blood, muscles and bones of the monster. However, with his current strength, it is difficult to kill the monster.
, even the lowest level monsters are much stronger than him, not to mention that he has no experience in hunting monsters.
If he doesn't go out to hunt and kill himself, he has no choice but to buy it. After getting his treasure, he could solve this problem, but now that he can't open the stone door, he doesn't have to think about his treasure anymore.
Xing Nan suddenly thought that he still had three spiritual stones. Although they were all low-grade spiritual stones, they could be exchanged for a lot of things.
Most of the guests at Wuyin Inn are hunters, and the rest are monks who hunt monsters with some level of cultivation, so Xing Nan can buy the flesh, blood, bones and bones of monsters without leaving Wuyin Inn.
Generally, the most valuable thing about a monster is its demon elixir, and then its leather armor. The monks who hunt monsters also care about these the most, and they often dispose of the muscles, bones, flesh and bones of monsters at a low price.
In addition, everyone has gradually become familiar with Xing Nan, so naturally they will not embarrass him on the price.
