Chapter 62: Picking a first-level demonic beast
After leaving the cave, Li Ji followed behind the young beast, paying attention to his feet while recalling the harvest of the past few days under the guidance of the young beast.
On the second day, when I practiced with the young beast, I still let the young beast shoot two magic fireballs in succession.
At that time, Li Ji stood at the foot of a much wider slope, and with a thought, he took out a one-handed giant sword from the space ring. The blade of the sword touches the index finger of the left hand, and when the blade is withdrawn, a line of blood appears on the index finger. Li Ji, who couldn't wait, didn't wait for the blood line to gather, and immediately started the blood rage, and the blood qi that had just risen was sucked into the meridians in an instant, and it was operated every day.
When the blood qi entering the meridians reached the limit, Li Ji began to speed up the blood qi, holding the sword in both hands, and set up a formation.
The young beast on the slope didn't need Li Ji's orders, and when it saw that Li Ji was ready, it shot out two of the ten magic fireballs hanging in front of it in front of the Holy Rank Demon Core and came straight towards Li Ji.
After the magic fireball flew away from the Holy Rank Demon Core, its size rapidly increased. Li Ji, who should have been accustomed to this scene for a long time yesterday, was still a little nervous at this moment, because although there was a slight accident yesterday, he had never officially broken two magic fireballs in a row and failed to achieve his goal, so at this moment, in order to no longer be hindered by the interference of other factors and play his due strength normally, he had to be ready and pay attention to the magic fireballs that flew in.
The magic fireball was extremely fast, and it was instantaneous under Li Ji's gaze. As before, Li Ji raised his giant sword and slashed down at the magic fireball that was close to the size of the basin.
"Bang!"
As Li Ji expected, the magic fireball was split in half by a sword, which was not difficult for him at this time, but the difficulty was the second magic fireball that followed.
Extinguishing the pride of breaking the magic fireball for the first time yesterday, in the face of today's second magic fireball, Li Ji, whose sword momentum was still sinking, directly accelerated the operation of blood qi through the improved spiritual power like he broke two magic fireballs of the first-level demonic beast one after another, and forcibly stopped the sinking momentum of the giant sword with force, and then deflected the blade of the giant sword, from the bottom to the top, and picked up obliquely.
With another "bang", Li Ji successfully knocked the second magic fireball away.
However, perhaps with such a posture, the force was still insufficient, and Li Ji was still hit by the impact of the magic fireball and took two steps back, but this detail had been selectively forgotten by him. Li Ji only knew at this moment that he had been able to successfully break the young beast's two consecutive magic fireballs head-on, which was a significant improvement compared to yesterday's need to resist the second magic fireball.
It's just that Li Ji's happiness is almost over. Because in the next few rounds of the young beast's second shot, Li Ji found that it was becoming more and more difficult to break the second magic fireball, and the strength of the shock was multiplied, and he was almost unable to knock it away.
Seeing that the situation was getting more and more unfavorable, Li Ji temporarily gave up the idea of hitting the magic fireball for the time being, and switched to the same as he did on the first day of training, choosing a hard block when the second magic fireball came.
In this way, Li Ji's strength gradually improved in the next few days of sparring, and the magic fireball burst that he practiced with the young beast was also changed from two consecutive shots to three consecutive shots, and it was only when Li Ji reached the two magic fireballs that broke the second shot ten times in a row that he was replaced with three consecutive shots. Because Li Ji believed that after he broke ten consecutive shots in two shots, a total of twenty magic fireballs, those first-level demonic beasts would almost be able to slaughter. The reason why I had to practice the magic fireball triple shot with the young beast was to practice resisting the third magic fireball after breaking the magic fireball with two consecutive hits, so as to ensure that I could win the battle without accidents when fighting against that group of first-level demonic beasts.
And just yesterday, Li Ji had already achieved the goal he had set, and he was able to complete the breakthrough and hard block under the first ten rounds of the young beast's three consecutive magic fireballs in the first ten rounds. The response of the magic fireball after ten rounds is of course back to the starting point, and the third magic fireball still needs to be dodged by Li Ji. But none of this mattered, at least Li Ji felt that it was enough to deal with those first-level demonic beasts.
Li Ji was able to make so much progress in just a few days, or because in addition to the improvement of his mental power that he was particularly concerned about, the blood qi that the meridians in his body could hold also inadvertently broke through during the sparring, and the blood qi that had been running at an accelerated pace made the meridians constantly bear the friction of crowding, and actually improved the strength of the meridians a little, which may be another unexpected gain from the sparring that seemed to be a real battle in the past few days.
As the spiritual power that Li Ji focuses on, so far, the effect of the improvement is immediate, and the blood consumed to generate blood qi by opening the blood rage has actually reached two percent of the blood in the whole body, which is equivalent to allowing Li Ji to maintain a longer battle.
Of course, the current Li Ji was definitely not able to hold on for as long as he expected because the blood qi that could be contained in the meridians increased at one time, and the blood qi produced by the blood rage consumed two percent of the blood. However, when these two are combined, Li Ji's strength in wartime has improved even more obviously. And this is also the confidence of Li Ji to decide to challenge that group of first-level demonic beasts.
The road leading to the lair of the first-level demonic beasts, Li Ji and the young beasts have already walked a few times in the first half, so it also confirms what Mr. Lu Xun said: "There is no road in the world, and when there are more people walking, it becomes a road." ”
In the first half of the road, Li Ji could walk alone even if he didn't have a young beast to lead the way, at least there was no problem in walking to the place where he met the fourth-level wind wolf. But even if Li Ji could do it, he didn't dare to do it, and even now he obediently followed behind the young beast, only the young beast's small brain was watching. Because Li Ji knew that he didn't have the ability to avoid evil, if he bumped directly into a certain demonic beast, he would not know until he died, and he was afraid that he would secretly hate why he was so unlucky.
More than two hours later, under the crutches of the young beast, Li Jian finally walked through the weedy-covered and vine-ridden woods, and saw the bare land in front of him that made him remember it at a glance. Li Ji knew that he was already very close to that group of first-level demonic beasts.
Stepping on the inch-long grass stalk that rested on his feet, Li Ji directly left the young beast behind this time, he didn't believe that there was still danger here, and walked quickly forward.
Not long after, Li Ji looked over the top of a small slope and saw the group of first-level demonic beasts he was looking for.
Just like what they saw when they first came here, these first-class demonic beasts were scattered all over the bare hillsides, playing or sleeping, and their fiery red figures were occasionally mixed with individual gray-white and other different colors.
At this moment, Li Ji couldn't wait to challenge them.
Crossing the hillside, Li Ji walked towards the first-level demonic beasts that were scattered everywhere. This time, he was not cautious, and walked openly and fearlessly.
When Li Ji approached the two first-level demonic beasts frolicking below the hillside, he stopped, and the distance between the two sides was less than ten meters at this time, Li Ji believed that the two-headed first-level demonic beasts must have seen him, but they didn't care. Li Ji had had such an experience before, so he probably knew what the two first-level demonic beasts thought, it was nothing more than that they didn't see any danger under Li Ji's ordinary appearance and didn't regard him as a threat; That's why the two first-level demonic beasts continued to frolic, ignoring Li Ji's existence.
Glancing around the two first-level demonic beasts again, there were companions in all directions a few meters away from their bodies, but none of these could make Li Ji hesitate.
Li Ji's heart moved, and his right hand was already holding the hilt of the one-handed giant sword taken out of the spatial ring. Without a trace of hesitation, Li Ji lifted the sword and touched it lightly between the index fingers of his left hand, the sword body moved away, and a blood stain reflecting blood surged on his fingers, and the blood rage was immediately opened, and the wisps of blood qi were rushed into the meridians by Li Ji, and when they reached the limit that the meridians could bear, they accelerated the operation of blood qi and traveled to Zhou Tian.
A powerful force suddenly burst out from his body, Li Ji clenched his left hand into a fist, feeling the surging power of blood, and looked at the two first-level demonic beasts that were his first target today.
Li Ji let out a loud shout, holding the sword in his right hand, walking like flying under his feet, and quickly killed the two first-level demonic beasts.
In the face of Li Ji's abrupt shout, not only the two first-level demonic beasts that were his target were shocked, but even the first-level demonic beasts with this piece turned their heads to look over, but after seeing that it was Li Ji, a guy who didn't know whether to live or die, rushed to their companions like a dead end, out of curiosity, they all expressed their excitement and watched over.
Regarding the changes in the situation, Li Ji in the charge saw it in his eyes, but his strength was no longer what it used to be. Moreover, what he has to do today is to kill all these people who are ready to watch the excitement, so as to prove that he has the ability to gain a foothold in this strange land.
As a result, Li Ji's speed in the forward rush did not decrease, and the distance between him and the two first-level demonic beasts was rapidly approaching. In just an instant, he crossed the cordon of the two first-level demonic beasts.
Seeing that Li Ji was so unscrupulous as if he was bent on looking for death, the two first-level demonic beasts immediately stopped frolicking, and screamed in warning to Li Ji who had crossed the two of them in no particular order.
Li Ji ignored the warning and continued to approach the two first-level demonic beasts, and the giant sword held in his right hand was slightly raised, and he was about to slash out.
The distance was too close, and the two first-level demonic beasts were suddenly furious, and at the same time opened their big mouths, and a wave of magic fluctuations quickly came out, and a magic fireball appeared in their mouths, and when the magic fireball was formed, it shot out, flying towards Li Ji in no particular order.
In today's battle, Li Ji wants victory, not a brainless hero. Therefore, in the face of the magic fireballs that flew from the two first-level demonic beasts, Li Ji instantly shifted the direction under his feet and lowered his body slightly on the way forward, successfully letting go of the two magic fireballs.
One blow missed, and the two first-level demonic beasts were stunned, as if they were in disbelief.
In fact, not only the two of them, but also the first-level demonic beasts who came to watch were also full of surprise, wondering why Li Ji, who seemed to be seeking death, was so agile and able to dodge their magic fireballs.
However, the surprise of those first-level demonic beasts, Li Ji didn't have the heart to pay attention to it at all, at this moment, he had already raised the giant sword in his hand, and he was about to slash at the first-level demonic beast on the left in the next second.
At the critical moment, the two first-level demonic beasts suddenly woke up, and they all let out a frightened scream when they looked at the giant sword that Li was about to cut off.
In the face of Li Ji's attack, the left-hand first-level demonic beast kicked hard, swung back, and jumped straight back. As for the other end, it is just turning around and running.
Li Ji's sword fell and slashed into the air. The two first-level demonic beasts successfully dodged, and at this moment, Li Ji's body suddenly vacated a small space, he raised his eyes and looked around, and found that he had been surrounded, and the hillside was full of first-level demonic beasts that had just arrived from everywhere. They glared at him.
Li Ji put away his sword and stood up, and took a deep breath. He knew that the show was about to begin.
