Chapter 39 The First Battle

In the next two days, Lu Yan did not officially start his own training and penance.

In the past two days, Lu Yan has walked around the entire sinkhole, and even went out to the flat land at the entrance of the cave outside. Looking at the strange flowers and herbs everywhere, magical medicinal herbs, and even many of them Lu Yan couldn't name, but this did not hinder the excitement in Lu Yan's heart. Because most of the flowers and herbs here almost have a light or strong medicinal fragrance.

As early as the last time he came, Lu Yan planned to go to the family's library to check out some books on elixir and supplement some knowledge about medicine, but due to some special reasons, he never had time to go.

After two days of traveling, Lu Yan has basically become familiar with the nearby environment.

In the stone chamber opened up by Lu Yan in the cave. Lu Yan sat cross-legged, and the pale red light flowed through his body, reflecting the entire stone house like day. A trace of reddish gas puffed from Lu Yan's mouth and nose. The impurities in the surrounding air are incinerated and turned into gray ash and floats to the ground.

With Lu Yan's breathing, the reddish gas continued to drill into his body from the Heavenly Spirit Cover. Constantly refining every cell in the muscles, and then constantly intersecting and merging with the fire aura flowing from the dantian in the meridians, and finally all turned into a trace of pure aura, integrated into the body to continue to temper the body bones, and finally converged into the dantian along the meridians, and the cycle was endless. Soon a thin layer of black scale began to appear on the surface of Lu Yan's skin.

After about an hour of this process, Lu Yan, who had not moved, suddenly trembled slightly, and the vitality around his body seemed to have life, suddenly condensed, turned into a red light, and drilled into the heavenly spirit cover with a brush.

"Whew...."

There was a slight exhalation, and in a short time, all the red light disappeared. Lu Yan also opened his eyes at this time. In the deep eyes, a trace of red light and shadow swept by....

Call....

Lu Yan exhaled a heavy breath, and the essence in his eyes gradually dissipated, returning to a clear color.....

Finally refining the body at the peak of the first layer...... You are only one line away from entering the second floor......

Lu Yan looked down at the clothes that had been soaked with sweat, clinging tightly to his body, mixed with a layer of black and slimy sticky, smiled bitterly, and then slightly sensed his body, a scorching breath permeated his body, and his heart was beating vigorously and powerfully.

Although his aura had skyrocketed a lot at this time, Lu Yan still shook his head, his face was not very satisfied.

Ever since he broke through to Qi training, Lu Yan obviously felt that the growth of his strength was still too slow, and it was no longer as obvious as before. This made Lu Yan feel very distressed, after all, he came out to experience to make his strength grow faster.

Lu Yan thought for a moment before shaking his head with a smile.

I thought to myself, I was still too greedy, since the last time the meridians were broken, and now my strength has broken through to the peak of the first level of qi refining, it is actually very fast, even compared to those so-called geniuses, what is there to be dissatisfied with.

As the saying goes, people's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants. Let's take it step by step.

Lu Yan stood up with a smile, and the bones in his body suddenly made a crackling sound, and then a sense of comfort surged through his whole body and limbs, making him can't help but stretch his waist.....

Walking out of the stone chamber, and then jumping off the stone pit, Lu Yan followed his memory to the small stream he found yesterday. I washed my face with some cold mountain spring water in my hands. Then he took off his dirty clothes, washed them with the water of the stream, and finally hung them on the branches.

Standing by the stream, although it was already dark because it was night, but as a qi martial artist, Lu Yan could already see in the dark. Looking at the prosperous and dense spiritual herbs and ancient trees in the sinkhole, Lu Yan greedily took a deep breath of the air with a strong medicinal fragrance, and instantly felt an incomparably refreshing comfort all over his body.

For a moment, Lu Yan's mind suddenly had such an idea, if he settled here in the future, watching the clouds on the edge of the cliff every day, the sun rising and setting, without any disturbance, it would be a good way of life. But in the end, Lu Yan still put away this thought, whether it was to find his father, or to find out the mysterious person who secretly attacked him hidden in the Lu family, he would not come here to enjoy life like this, because he also longed for the outside world and wanted a vigorous life.

............

In the early morning, when the first rays of sunlight spilled onto the earth, Lu Yan had already woken up from his sleep.

Standing on the cliff, looking at the sea of clouds below, after a night's rest, Lu Yan was full of energy and energy at this time.

"The formal penance is finally about to begin" Looking at the tumbling sea of clouds below, Lu Yan let out a soft roar. He turned and walked into the depths of the jungle behind him.

Ever since he knew that the children of the Lu family who had cultivated in the sect had come back one after another to participate in this clan competition, the pressure on Lu Yan's body had become more and more intense, and his thirst for strength had become stronger and stronger. That's why I decided to take advantage of the fact that there is still a short period of time for the New Year's festival to come out and practice penance.

Normal cultivation has not been able to bring him too many breakthroughs in strength in the short term, and only by entering the Sword Luo Mountain Range, which is full of demon beasts, can he become strong in a short period of time.

For a long time, he has been taught by his father that only through continuous battles can the strength of the warrior be increased rapidly, and the martial arts of the strong can be truly honed.

Along the way, constantly shuttling in the deep forest. Lu Yan was both excited and a little apprehensive. I was excited that this time I finally had to really fight with the demon beast, and I was worried that I was afraid that my luck would be too bad and I would encounter a monster beast stronger than myself and face the danger of life and death.

Just when Lu Yan was still excited about his first experience, Longzhou City was a different scenery at this time.

At this time, the gate of Longzhou Mansion was wide open, and a lot of people gathered at the gate, vying to look at the horse team that was heading towards the city gate in the distance. The horse team was like a long dragon with no end in sight, and the carriage was surrounded by flags, flying in the wind, so imposing.

The horses were flanked by samurai in military armor, each of whom exuded a thick aura of evil, and it was obvious that these people were elites who had experienced many battlefields.

The men gathered at the gates of the city pointed at the carriages in the distance and talked about it.

On the city wall, the city lord in a golden brocade robe looked at the horse team below, with a smile on his face, nodding from time to time, obviously in a very good mood.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way, everyone back off.." Just as people were scrambling to watch, dozens of sergeants with long swords suddenly rushed out to line up in front of the crowd, constantly driving the crowd away.

Under the sergeant's reprimand, everyone scrambled to retreat in all directions.

At this moment, the caravan had reached the gate of the city, but just when it was expected that the caravan would continue to advance, the caravan stopped. At this time, the city lord of Longzhou Mansion, who was originally standing at the head of the city, had already appeared at the gate of the city at some point, and was looking at the carriage at the front of the convoy with a smile on his face, revealing a trace of pride and love in his eyes.

I saw that a white and tender hand like a lotus root suddenly stretched out from the carriage, gently lifted the curtain, and walked out of the carriage, and it was an eighteen-year-old girl.

When everyone saw the little girl's face clearly, everyone was attracted by her amazing appearance.

The woman is about 1.7 meters tall, dressed in a white shirt, with a pair of bright big eyes, white skin like clotted fat, red lips and teeth, and her movements are light and elegant, like a fairy descending to earth.

"Dad, why are you here," I saw that after the woman got out of the carriage, she immediately screamed, and the whole person jumped off the carriage lightly and rushed towards the city lord of Longzhou Mansion who was standing in the middle of the city gate.

Hey, this is the daughter of the City Lord's Mansion, no wonder she looks so beautiful, it's like a fairy......

Who's to say it's not......... The onlookers began to talk.

"Dad, why did you come to pick me up suddenly," the woman who was in the arms of the city lord asked with a happy face.

"Why can't I come and pick up my daughter, haha," the lord replied with a smile.

"Okay, you've come back all the way, and you're tired, let's go home first, and we'll talk about the rest," the city lord interrupted softly when the woman's red lips moved slightly and she was about to speak.

Soon, the young woman walked in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion with the support of everyone in the City Lord's Mansion. However, no one noticed that the woman glanced lightly in the direction of the landing house at the moment she turned around.

..........

Mount Jianluo

Along the way, Lu Yan held the short sword tightly in his hand, his mental attention was fully concentrated, and he was always vigilant for any disturbances around him.

"Boom!"

Without warning, a loud bang suddenly rang out. Immediately after that, a strong air flow swept in, and the surrounding grass and trees swayed from side to side under the impact of the air current......

Lu Yan was startled, his body instinctively deviated to the left, and then his complexion changed greatly, his feet were forced, his body sank, and he took a few steps back.

With a "brush", a huge black palm swept fiercely over the place where Lu Yan was standing just now. The strong air currents brought up a burst of fallen leaves.

"Hiss"

When he saw it clearly, Lu Yan gasped.

It's a tiger demon.

Lu Yan's pupils contracted violently, and he quickly retreated a few meters back again, keeping a distance from the tiger demon that he felt was relatively safe.

Seeing that the attack was not successful just now, the tiger demon held his body low at this time, and grabbed the ground in front of his claws in an offensive posture.

Good fellow, this tiger demon is two feet long, and its whole body is the size of an adult rhinoceros. The tiger demon's face showed a fierce light at this time, his scarlet eyes exuded an evil cold murderous intent, staring at Lu Yan tightly, and the tiger's mouth drooled from time to time, and fell to the ground with a click.

Lu Yan, who encountered this situation for the first time, was already a little pale, and his heart was very nervous. But the instinctive desire to survive told me that I must be calm, this is my first experience, and I must not die before I get out of the school.

Time seemed to pass very slowly at this moment, and a man and a tiger were in a stalemate for about a few minutes.

The tiger demon seemed to be a little impatient, and the tiger's mouth kept coming out of a deep wheezing sound.

Suddenly, a slight sound suddenly came, and the tiger demon bowed and shot towards Lu Yan's side.

Lu Yan, who had been on guard, reacted instantly, kicked back violently with both feet, and quickly turned to the left to avoid the direction of the tiger demon's attack.

With a swipe, at the moment when the tiger demon attacked, Lu Yan also made a quick move, and with a stroke of the short sword, the belly of the tiger demon was instantly cut a slender opening.
