When his eyes opened again, what appeared in his vision was an endless blue sky, birds flying freely in the air, and a stream meandering under the low mountain in front of him, everything was so peaceful and beautiful.

"Awake?"

When he was stunned, a faint voice came from the side, Ji Fan turned his head and saw the familiar face, facing kind, his eyes were like water, and he was holding a piece of grass in his mouth, looking at him lazily.

"Senior brother... Hiss..."

Ji Fan just wanted to sit up, but found that his whole body was extremely sore as if he was torn, and he didn't sit up after trying hard.

“... Don't move! I've just finished applying the medicine to you, and the wound will be in trouble if it opens again, come on... Slow down. ”

Yue Qing spit out the grass in his mouth, and carefully moved it to a tree behind him, Ji Fan leaned on the trunk of the tree, and a vague smell of medicine entered his mouth and nose, he looked down, only to find that his upper body was wrapped with layers of bandages, and it was very rough, he looked up at Yue Qing's soft eyes with some concern, and suddenly a warm current flowed in his heart, and then he felt a burst of surprise.

This senior brother looks harmless to humans and animals, has a cold and indifferent expression, is decisive and ruthless to the enemy, and now he is as tender as water...... This character is really inscrutable.

"I'm sorry, brother... Sorry to bother you. ”

"Hey... Brother. Yue Qing waved his hand, his smile was very kind.

"That spirit beast last night..."Ji Fan suddenly remembered, and asked again and again.

"Dead. Yue Qing said casually, Ji Fan looked up from below, and suddenly felt a little arrogant on his face, Ji Fan nodded slightly, and asked, "That spirit beast is very strong." ”

"Hmm... The spirit beast of the tiger, lion and leopard is the king of the spirit beasts, and I don't know how this one will appear on the edge of the spirit beast mountain range, but fortunately it is a young beast, otherwise we will all be feces now. After speaking, Yue Qing suddenly looked at the sky in the distance, and his face gradually calmed down, as if he had thought of something. Ji Fan looked at the distance suspiciously, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong, senior brother." ”

“... I always feel like there's something going on in this mountain range... The war behemoths, as well as the green-eyed beasts, live in the center of the mountains, next to their mothers... How can you come out alone and forage for food? Yue Qing frowned and thought about it.

"Could there be any treasure born in the mountain range?" I heard Ye Lin say, if there is such a miracle, it means that a treasure has been born!" Ji Fan said eagerly, his eyes lit up.

"Pull it down, you listen to his nonsense, and besides, you still want to hunt for treasure with the way you look. Yue Qing used a bamboo tube to hold water next to the stream, and returned without raising his head.

"By the way, that first-grade elixir, I will use it for you as a wound medicine when you are unconscious. Yue Qing said lightly.

"Ah?!" Ji Fan nodded first, and when he reacted, his eyes suddenly widened.

"Ahh Yue Qing handed him the bamboo tube, and Ji Fan looked at him in disbelief for a long time before he reached out and took it.

The first grade elixir in his life, he didn't cover it in his arms, so it was used?!

He didn't even taste what it was like!

In an instant, his heart was like a knife, and he almost tore the wound.

"Look at your virtue, I'll find you another in two days. Yue Qing looked at his sluggish appearance and rolled his eyes.

Ji Fan raised his head and opened his mouth, then lowered his head again, looking sullen.

Yue Qing didn't bother to take care of it, so he directly ignored it, and sat down on the rock next to him, staring at the sky in the distance and not knowing what he was thinking.

......

At noon, Yue Qing brought a pheasant, washed it by the stream until it was clean, tore it up and put it in a bamboo tube mixed with various materials.

The charcoal was roasted for more than half an hour, the fragrance gradually spread in the air, and Ji Fan, who was meditating, opened his eyes, probably because of the elixir, although his face was still pale, but it was already bloody.

"It's so fragrant, senior brother. ”

"Wait a minute, we'll be fine right away. Yue Qing was looking at the fire, and he didn't have time to swing his way, Ji Fan didn't bother anymore, he looked at all this in a daze, and suddenly felt that there was such a senior brother who could take care of people, and the life of the experience was still very good.

"That's it!"

Carrying the bamboo tube to Ji Fan, Yue Qing wiped his sweat, looked at Ji Fan's salivating appearance, shook his head slightly, opened the bamboo cover and the heat came up with the fragrance, Ji Fan took a deep breath with an intoxicated face, looked inside, and saw that the pheasant in the bamboo tube had melted with the materials, the meat juice was overflowing, the color and taste were good, Ji Fan couldn't care about it, and couldn't wait to pick up the bamboo skewer and eat it.

"It's delicious, it's delicious! I suddenly feel that it is really a pleasure to come out to practice with you, senior brother!" The entrance was crispy, and the lips and teeth were fragrant, Ji Fan was so hot that he exhaled out, and said to Yue Qing vaguely.

"Cut, in the morning, don't you blame me for using your elixir? Yue Qing sneered and ate to himself.

"Hehe......" Ji Fan sneered for a while.

Ten minutes later, Yue Qing was meditating on the side, Ji Fan was burping against the trunk of the tree, squinting contentedly at the sunlight shining through the cracks in the trees, and stretched out comfortably, is this the life of a practitioner, no wonder the senior brothers on the mountain often go down the mountain to practice, this kind of freedom and unrestrained can not be sought in the sect that behaves in a disciplined manner.

.........

Five days later, on a morning with alternating light and darkness, Ji Fan meditated by the stream. His forehead was bruised, he was sweating profusely, his bloodshot eyes looked terrible, and after a long time he collapsed to the rocks in a dejected manner.

"You Spirit Destroying Ancient Nightmare Body, your cultivation method looks a little terrifying. ”

On the low hill above him, there stood a figure, he smiled gently, dressed in gray clothes, and his black pupils were a little playful, but they were as calm as a lake, and the early sun crossed a layer of golden light on him, which looked a little sacred.

"Well, there is no way, the exchange of strength always comes at a price... Or you will always lose the face of the master. ”

The smile on his face was full of irony, and even showed a kind of hatred, Yue Qing opened his mouth, looking at the emotions that should not appear on that immature face, and sighed slightly.

"What did Senior Brother do?"

Standing up with the paralysis of his whole body, Ji Fan asked curiously.

"I didn't do anything, I went around to look for the spirit grass, but unfortunately I didn't find anything. Yue Qing yawned a little lazily, spread his hands and said.

"Okay. Ji Fan sighed, through talking in the past few days, he also has some understanding of the spirit beast mountain range, the spirit grass growing on the periphery of the mountain range has almost been picked up by the practitioners, and if you want the spirit grass, you can only go to the interior of the inaccessible mountain range, but there is a danger there, and there are powerful spirit beasts guarding it, and it is difficult to get it.

"Let's go, I'll take you to hunt spirit beasts and add some actual combat experience. Yue Qing said.

"Uh? Ji Fan was stunned for a moment, then nodded excitedly, and the two of them walked away.

......

The afternoon passed quickly.

In the dense woods, the two of them concentrated on finding a suitable target, and a few low spirit beast roars in the distance, startling the flock of birds perched overhead, and after tossing and turning in the deep forest several times, they finally heard a slightly faint spirit beast roar from somewhere.

"It's just ahead, listening to the voice, it should be a spirit beast of the third or fourth order of aura. ”

Ji Fan nodded, and his immature little face became solemn.

"There's a first time for everything, take it easy. Yue Qing patted him on the shoulder encouragingly and said softly.

"Yes, brother. ”

Ji Fan took out the dagger, nodded seriously, and then cautiously groped forward.

Directly in front, a spirit beast about two zhang in size was lying under the tree, it looked a little peculiar, with a cat's head and a deer body, without a single hair on its body, only a layer of gray-brown rough skin, and what was terrifying was the slender beak like a sword blade, which was believed to be able to easily pierce a person's body.

"It's a saber-billed beast!"

Ji Fan shouted, during this time, he often looked at the bounty atlas, and he also had a little understanding of some spirit beast nicknames, the sword-billed beast in front of him was not too strong in attack among inferior spirit beasts, and his body size was only three stages of aura.

Turning around, Yue Qing gave him an encouraging look and motioned him to do it, the spirit beast was dozing in the sun, Ji Fan took a deep breath, took the dagger and quietly touched it, and behind him Ji Fan sat down on a rock nearby, holding his arms and watching a play.

...... The spirit beast gradually enlarged in its pupils, and two steps away from it, Ji Fan suddenly jumped up, and at the same time, the blade in his hand attached a layer of black light, stabbing straight at the neck of the sword-billed beast.

"Gah!"

The spirit beast opened its eyes as it approached, and when it saw the creature disturbing its rest, it let out an angry cry like a crow, and the beak of the bird slashed towards Ji Fan like a sword blade.

"Ding!"

In mid-air, Ji Fan saw the sharp beak of the bird slashing through the sky, reaching its waist and abdomen, and hurriedly withdrew his hand to turn the attack into a block, the beak of the bird made contact with the dagger in his hand, and the strong impact pushed Ji Fan out.

"Da Da Da ......"

Ji Fan, who fell to the ground, took a few steps back in embarrassment before subtracting this power, and secretly said that the strength of this human being is really not comparable to that of a spirit beast, if he was hit just now, he could at least be opened a hole in his body.

"The aura is vain, the strength is too weak! If you fail to find the right direction of attack, you are called death. Yue Qing's face was kind and kind, he didn't know when he had put it away, his faint eyes were serious, and the dagger in his hand was clenched, as if he was ready to rescue at any time.

Ji Fan clenched his palm tightly when he heard this, this was the first time he heard Yue Qing speak so ruthlessly, but if he thought about it seriously, he knew that the sword-billed beast attacked by its mouth, but he still had to attack its neck, it was really a bit of a feeding tiger.

The first attack suffered a small loss, Ji Fan stopped in place and hesitated, but the sword-billed beast didn't wait for him, stood up and shook its gray-brown skin, and rushed towards him with its hooves.

"Ding, ding, ding!"

Ji Fan kept defending and retreating, and every time the bird's beak waved, it repelled a few steps, and after a few times, his breathing became much messier.

"Cowardice will dull the knife, calm down, don't fight hard, find its weak spot to attack. Seeing that the fourth stage of the aura could still play like this against the third stage of the aura, Yue Qing suddenly shook his head speechlessly, and he had no choice but to open his mouth to point out.

Hearing Yue Qing's words, Ji Fan pursed his lips tightly, carefully observing every movement of the sword-billed beast while dodging.

Soon he found that the range of the saber-billed beast's attack on him was only about half a meter, and when he dodged its attack, the range of action was too large, and when he jumped out of its attack range, the saber-billed beast would change from "sting" to "stroke", waving the huge beak, and at the same time, the lower body that had not moved all the time, but there was a slight turning action, Ji Fan guessed that the limit of the twisting range of its neck was only a radius, that is, the back of its head was the weak point.

Guessing is not as good as practice, Ji Fan took a deep breath, moved to the right when dodging, and gradually jumped out of the attack range of the sword-billed beast, at a certain moment, the spirit beast waved its huge beak, Ji Fan saw the opportunity to lower his body and dodge and quickly moved to the left, the dagger in his hand quickly covered the aura, and the faint black light slashed at the bare back of the sword-billed beast's bare neck like lightning.

"Gah!"

The sword-billed beast howled, and the blood red flowed down quickly, and it turned to face Ji Fan very awkwardly, and its eyes the size of a grain of rice instantly turned a lot red.

"Talented..."Yue Qing secretly praised in his heart, his body also relaxed, he didn't expect that he could quickly comprehend just by reminding Ji Fan casually, although the movements were still a little clumsy, but there was also a hint of taste.

Looking at the blood red, Ji Fan was overjoyed, but he didn't expect it to be successful, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he suddenly became a little confident.

"Hey!

Tasting the sweetness, Ji Fan moved his steps slightly, and slowly approached the attack range of the sword-billed beast, the sword-billed beast looked at Ji Fan who was acting like a provocation, roared angrily, and stabbed him continuously with a sharp giant beak as if he had lost his mind, Ji Fan did not dare to be careless, hurriedly dodged, and gradually moved to the edge of the sword-billed beast's attack range, at this time, the sword-billed beast turned into a stab, and waved the giant beak horizontally, and Ji Fan quickly left a blood mark on the back of his neck.

"Gah!"

"Come again!"

"Gah!"

......

Ji Fan was a little excited, and after adapting to it, he became more and more handy, and after a few times, the sword-billed beast was a little unsteady on its feet, and its attack movements became slower and slower, and the bright red gurgled down its neck, staining the ground under its feet red.

It shook its somewhat heavy head, its blood-red eyes were full of weakness and unwillingness, Ji Fan's face was calm and indifferent, and he didn't show too much sympathy, after all, this is a world where the weak eat the strong, and if the roles of the two are reversed, the saber-billed beast in front of him will not hesitate to treat him as blood food.

Another fatal attack, the sword-billed beast was already a little swaying, bright red stained most of its body, finally, it couldn't hold on, and fell to the ground weakly, but it still roared weakly at Ji Fan, Ji Fan slowly stepped forward and killed it with a knife, without giving it too much pain.

"Senior brother. After getting rid of the sword-billed beast, Ji Fan walked up to Yue Qing and waited for Yue Qing's evaluation with some excitement.

"If your accuracy is a little higher, and your strength can be a little heavier, you can kill with one blow, and the spiritual power is four and three stages, and after fighting for so long, this saber-billed beast is about to be tossed to death by you, and you can't have a good time. Yue Qing crossed his arms, not salty or indifferent, as if he was helping the ancient duck beast confide in his heart.

"Ahh Belch... All right. Ji Fan's smile stiffened when he heard this, but it made sense to think about it, the sword-billed beast was indeed tossed to death by him, and when he turned around, he looked at the dead sword-billed beast with some apologies and scratched his head.

"Let's go, it's time to go back, after such a long battle, it is estimated that the little aura in your body has been consumed, and I still want to take you to hunt again." Yue Qing jumped off the rock, turning back lazily as he walked forward.

Ji Fan was stunned when he heard this, looked at the back of the distant one, and hurriedly followed.

Not long after the two left, in the quiet woods, the corpse of the sword-billed beast lying on the ground, the blood all over its body inexplicably coagulated, turned black, and finally disappeared, and the beast corpse gradually dried up, looking as if it had been weathered, and its appearance was extremely strange.

A leaf fell from between the trees and slowly landed on the beast's corpse, and in an instant, the sword-billed beast turned into ashes and disappeared into the air, leaving only a shallow mark on the ground.

......
