Chapter Seventy-Eight: Refining
In the blink of an eye, nearly an hour passed, and Lu Yan made all the pieces of meat clear and clean. Lu Yan stood up, walked to an ancient tree and sat down, after more than two hours of busyness, he was already a little tired at this time.
After resting next to the ancient tree for about a quarter of an hour, Lu Yan, who had recovered a little, woke up, and then took a long sword to cut some thick wooden strips on several ancient trees around him, and then skewered the pieces of meat and finally dried them one by one.
"Gollum.. Just as Lu Yan finished drying the last string of meat, there was a sudden sound behind him. When I looked back, I saw that the demon bear's eyes were flashing brightly, and it had been staring at the pieces of meat hanging on the tree, and there were bursts of sound from its stomach.
Lu Yan shook his head slightly, a wry smile appeared on his face, he knew that the demon bear was probably hungry. Immediately, Lu Yan turned around and walked to a nearby ancient tree, then lifted his breath, kicked hard under his feet, and jumped up to the ancient tree like a sharp arrow.
After standing firmly, Lu Yan walked out along the branches, reached out and took a few large skewers of tiger meat that he had dried on it before, and threw them directly in the direction where the demon bear was.
The demon bear, who had been looking here, saw Lu Yan throwing things at him, and his whole body was excited to catch those tiger meats. He grinned twice and began to eat on his own. Lu Yan also took a bunch of tiger meat by himself, and sat directly on the tree and ate it, this was Lu Yan's first time eating tiger meat, and it was not as unpalatable as he imagined, but the taste was still a little worse, and some were not very used to it. After eating a few bites, Lu Yan simply threw all the remaining tiger meat in his hand to the demon bear, and the demon bear, who was already hungry and faint, did not refuse, so he took it and put it directly into his mouth and chewed it in a big mouthful.
Picking a few leaves and wiping the oil stains in his hands, Lu Yan jumped directly from the tree, and then walked straight to the trees where fresh monster meat was hanging just now and picked up a string of fresh meat skewers.
With the meat skewer in hand, Lu Yan found a vacant lot nearby, erected a wooden frame, and then urged Tianyan True Qi to ignite the dead branches and yellow leaves underground, and finally put the meat pieces on the wooden frame and baked them.
The demon bear over there had already eaten all the tiger meat in front of him, burped, and then walked to Lu Yan and sat down.
Lu Yan smiled lightly and didn't speak, just kept flipping the skewer of meat for baking.
Soon the surface of the meat pieces was golden brown, and the smell of meat wafted out, and there was a continuous sizzling sound on it, and those meat pieces were constantly dripping with oil down, which made the fire even stronger.
The demon bear next to him looked at the golden piece of meat, and his mouth flowed out of his mouth, and his eyes stared straight at it.
At this moment, Lu Yan seemed to think of something, and his wrist instantly added a force, causing the wooden stick with the meat to spin quickly on the shelf, and then stood up and ran quickly towards his stone room.
Soon Lu Yan appeared in front of the fire again, but he already had a small bag of things in his hand. After gently opening the small packet of oiled paper, a small pile of white crystals was exposed, which was the salt used by people to cook food.
Gently pinched a small handful of salt, Lu Yan gently sprinkled the salt on top of the golden roast meat, and instantly a richer fragrance wafted out. Even Lu Yan couldn't help but swallow a handful of saliva. Seeing that it was almost roasted, Lu Yan picked up the barbecue from the wooden rack, and by the way, cut a larger piece and handed it to the demon bear.
The demon bear excitedly took the barbecue and ate it happily, Lu Yan smiled slightly, and then ate it himself.
"Well, that's right, the meat of this demon beast is really delicious, and there is still a trace of pure energy" Lu Yan nodded in praise as he ate.
.......
At night, it is as cool as jade.
Lu Yan sat cross-legged on the bed, his eyes were closed, the whole person did not move at all, the aura emanating from his body was very weak, if he didn't get closer, it would be difficult to even feel the breath of life.
I don't know how long it took, Lu Yan's eyes suddenly opened, and a ray of essence shot out of his eyes.
With a long breath, Lu Yan's heart moved, and a yellow crystal appeared in his hand, which was the one he took away from the Demon Bear Cave Mansion.
At the moment when the yellow crystal appeared, the evergreen true qi in Lu Yan's body immediately slowly began to operate autonomously. Lu Yan, who had been prepared for this, smiled slightly, and immediately closed his eyes again, slowly silently practicing the Evergreen Technique, and at the same time, a powerful force continued to strip out the energy in the yellow crystal and introduce it into his body.
As soon as the yellow energy entered the body, it was wrapped in the evergreen true qi in the meridians, and it kept surging into the cyan crystal ball at the dantian. As the yellow energy continued to pour in, the cyan crystal ball was gradually spinning at a high speed, constantly fusing and assimilating those yellow energies.
When only half of the yellow crystal in his hand was left, the cyan crystal ball in Lu Yan's body suddenly changed slightly, and the color of the surface was no longer pure cyan, but mixed with a hint of pale yellow. Lu Yan was overjoyed in his heart, and immediately accelerated the refining and absorption of the yellow crystals.
At the same time that Lu Yan was speeding up the refining of the yellow crystal, the demon bear in the stone cave opposite was lying upright on the ground, but its eyes were actually open, and it kept looking towards Lu Yan, not knowing what it was thinking in its head.
Time passed unconsciously, and nearly an hour passed, and at this time, the last trace of energy of the yellow crystal in Lu Yan's hand was also absorbed, and the crystal that was originally brilliant was instantly dimmed, turning into a handful of ash powder and drifting away with the wind.
Lu Yan's mind kept staring at the crystal ball at the dantian, only to see that its surface was blue and yellow, like a colored candy, spinning at a high speed, and the red crystal ball next to it was motionless, not affected by them at all.
When the last trace of yellow energy was fused by the crystal ball, something strange suddenly appeared, and a powerful force suddenly gushed out from the blue and yellow crystal ball, and traveled all over the body along the meridians of Lu Yan's body.
For the sudden abnormality, Lu Yan was surprised in his heart, and his mind was highly concentrated to prevent accidents. However, at this moment, those mutated Evergreen True Qi that was wandering all over the body instantly became extremely violent, and streams of energy continued to wash over the meridians and muscle cells in Lu Yan's body. This instantaneous change made Lu Yan only feel a strong sharp pain, and the whole person almost fainted.
However, after all, Lu Yan was a sixth-level martial artist, and after all these years of training, he was extremely determined at this time, gritted his teeth, and endured severe pain.
Without fully understanding the reason, Lu Yan didn't dare to rush into the Tianyan Technique, and could only silently watch as these mutated evergreen true qi washed over his meridians and body.
This sharp pain lasted for about half an hour, and those gushing out of the abnormal blue true qi had been completely integrated into the physical body, and at this time, there was only pure fire flame true qi in the meridians.
When the pain disappeared in an instant, Lu Yan only felt a sense of weakness and exhaustion rise in his mind.
It took a long half a moment for Lu Yan to recover. As soon as he recovered, Lu Yan immediately sank into his body and carefully observed the situation in various parts of his body. As soon as the mind entered the body, Lu Yan quickly noticed the changes, and saw that the meridians in the body seemed to have become thicker and larger, although it was not too obvious, but it could be vaguely seen that there had been a big change before. At the same time, I also noticed that my muscles seemed to be tighter.
After recovering his mind, in order to verify his discovery, Lu Yan immediately took out the short sword he got from Li Wu from the space and slashed it lightly on his arm.
The dagger slashed, leaving only a shallow white mark on the arm, and no blood spilled. Lu Yan's face showed a look of surprise, and then he laughed and said, "My guess is really right."
You must know that this short sword is a second-grade sword weapon, extremely sharp, even the demon tiger and demon bear, which are as thick as iron monsters, have left a deep scar on their bodies just by a sword, but they are also scratched on their arms but they have not hurt a single point.
The strength of his physical body has become even stronger, and when he looks at the layer of black mucus on the surface of his skin at this time, a thought immediately flashed in Lu Yan's mind, "Wash the tendons and cut the marrow", only such an explanation can make sense.
