Chapter 357: Three Layers of Gas
After Yang Chao and the others used the feces of high-grade soul demon beasts to scatter around. Under his command, we went to cut down some of those trees with black spikes.
This tree is very hard, but the guys in everyone's hands are not ordinary. Although it was a bit of a struggle, we still managed to cut down a lot of these trees thanks to everyone's efforts.
According to Yang Chao, this strange tree is called the Iron Thorn Tree. And its vitality is very strong, even if it is cut down to only a stump, as long as it is not uprooted, it can sprout and reborn again.
In the process of cutting down trees, especially the pair of wheel axes in the hands of the big bull, it is very powerful! He could cut down an extremely thick tree in half an hour alone.
Thanks to everyone's efforts, when it was dark, we had formed a camp with the trunk and branches of the iron thorn tree in a radius of five or six hundred meters.
Night fell, and everyone was once again plunged into darkness.
On this night, many people slept well. But there are a small number of people, including me, who are not resting well. Because all night long, I heard movement outside our camp all the time.
There were strange screams, and there were loud roars. There are also some fights and bites!
And we are all in an environment where we can't see our fingers, and hearing these sounds is naturally not a rest.
finally waited until dawn, under Yang Chao's arrangement. He took five people out to hunt soul beasts. And the rest of us remained in the camp.
According to Yang Chao's request, we can only stay here for ten days. We used these 10 days to activate all the tokens in everyone's hands. At the same time, let us all have the experience of fighting with soul monsters, and then achieve the purpose of adapting to the environment here.
Today is the first day, and the five people Yang Chao brought are all people with relatively high cultivation in our team. Including the big cow and the mouse, he took them all out.
His purpose in doing this was to bring out the five backbones first. When the five backbones are trained, he will arrange for these five backbones to take the rest of us.
As they left, they told us not to leave the camp no matter what the situation was.
In fact, there is no need for him to tell us, and the rest of us know it. Without them, if we run around, it will be tantamount to death.
After they left, some of the dozen or so of us who were left chatted together, and some sat on the side to cultivate.
And I'm the one who sits on the side and cultivates.
Ever since I entered this Spirit Mountain Tomb, I felt that my cultivation had shown signs of a breakthrough. But every time it's a little bit off. Especially last night, I felt like I was about to break through several times. But it always fails at the last minute.
So, I believe! As long as I continue to cultivate and comprehend, I will definitely break through.
The day passed quickly, and when it was almost dark, although I was about to break through several times, I still couldn't break through to the third layer of Qi in the end.
And Yang Chao came back with those five people. They were very happy to see how they looked.
Sure enough, after they returned to the camp, Yang Chao happily announced to us: "All the people we went out this time have activated the tokens in their hands, and they have also earned some spirit points. Everyone waits with peace of mind, tomorrow I will take them out for another day, and the day after tomorrow I will let them take you out. ”
"Big bull, hurry up! Before it gets dark. Go bake the goodies we brought back! Yang Chao shouted to the big cow.
Yesterday, they set up a fire and roasted the heart of the Twin Soul Crocodile. It smelled good, but I didn't eat it. There are only a few people who eat.
Presumably, they went out to hunt some soul demon beasts today, and brought back some things to eat.
And this time, I took the initiative to go over and help the big cow. The things it brought back were baked. And then I ate quite a bit.
I don't know what kind of soul beast these things I cut them from, so I mustered up the courage to eat some.
Because I know very well that if I want to adapt to the environment here, I have to start eating. If I don't even dare to eat what is here, once I run out of dry food, then I will have to quit.
After eating those things, I realized that they weren't as disgusting as I thought. Although it is not delicious, it can still be swallowed normally.
After eating, it was dark again. I found another place to sit down and start practicing.
And this time, just a week after my exercises, I felt a sudden burst of colic in my body.
The colic came so hard that it caught me off guard. I lay on the ground holding my stomach in my arms, and the pain was so painful that I couldn't even scream.
However, this colic came and went very quickly.
After a while, I felt an indescribable feeling of well-being ripple through my body.
I...... Did I break through?
I'll go, this ...... That's. The problem that has always bothered me has been solved inexplicably.
I sat up straight and started the exercises again.
That's right, my current cultivation has really broken through to the third layer of Qi Transformation. Because the true qi in the body is more abundant, it has increased by at least ten times. It's a wonderful feeling, and I have a feeling that if I'm left alone to face the previous Yin and Yang Twin Soul Crocodile now, I can easily kill it.
It makes me wonder if it was because I ate those things yesterday. Isn't it that those things contain some special aura, and then let me easily break through to the third layer of qi.
After dawn, I happily stood up and moved my body.
"Huh!!" Yang Chao saw me, and he let out a suspicious sound.
Then he asked me, "Have you broken through to the ground level in your cultivation?" ”
"Yes, Company Commander Yang. My cultivation has been stuck in the Xuan Rank for a long time. Broke through last night!! I replied to Yang Chao.
"Really? Congratulations! Yang Chao looked at me with a smile and said.
"Thank you! Company Commander Yang! I thanked him politely.
"Okay, our team now has one more person who is a ground-level cultivator. That's a good thing for all of us! You can stabilize your cultivation here, and if you have any problems with your cultivation, you can come to me at any time. Yang Chao said to me with a smile.
"Okay, thank you Company Commander Yang!" I thank him again.
Yang Chao is now a Heavenly Rank cultivator, but he is a Qi Cultivator, and I am a Cultivator. Two completely different systems. So I was just being polite to his kindness, because he couldn't give me guidance on my cultivation.
But what he said is true, I have just broken through to the third layer of chemical gas. It is indeed necessary to stabilize and comprehend the cultivation.
Another day passed. When it was almost dark, Yang Chao and the others brought back a lot of loot. This time, I was more active in helping the cow to roast those things. And I ate more this time.
In the evening, I felt that the cultivation that I had just broken through to the third layer of Qi Transformation had faintly made some progress. Although this progress is not very obvious, it is enough for me to be sure that those foods are indeed helpful for my cultivation.
When it was dawn again, Yang Chao gathered all of us together. He gave us a few brief words and divided us into six groups.
Well, it's not a group, according to Yang Chao's words. It's six platoons!
And the platoon commander is the five people he brought out to experience two days ago, plus he himself is also a platoon commander. So there are six platoons!
Among these six platoons, Yang Chao has the most platoons, with four.
The rest of the platoons, most of them were three, and some were only two people.
For example, the platoon I was in was two people. The platoon commander with me was none other than that strange second-class mouse.
"Your name is Gu Xiaochuan, right?" The rat asked me.
"Yes!" I replied to him.
"Okay, then you will be the deputy platoon commander of our fifth platoon from now on!" The mouse said to me with a grin.
I'll go, just me and him. He was the platoon commander and I was the deputy platoon commander. This...... Isn't that funny?
But I didn't say anything else, just said to him: "Please take care of the platoon commander!" ”
"Don't worry, you know? In the past two days, I have killed the most soul demon beasts! So you follow me, I promise you won't suffer!! The mouse said to me with a smug face. He seemed very satisfied with the way he looked, and I called him platoon commander.
After dividing the rows, we set off separately.
"Platoon commanders pay attention, take care of your own people. Don't let your own people get into trouble! Whoever wants to let his own people have an accident, Lao Tzu demotes him! Before leaving, Yang Chao shouted at us.
Demoted? I'll go!
If something really happens, what's the use of demotion?
"Gu Platoon Leader, go! I'll take you to a good place. There was a soul beast called the Seven-Ringed Nightmare Soul Serpent in that place, and that kind of thing was very stupid. It's so good, I'll take you to activate your token first! When I got out of the camp, the mouse greeted me.
"Uh...... That platoon leader! You can call me Ogawa! I knew that the rat liked the title of platoon leader, so I said to him with a smile.
"Hehe, good! Then I'll call you Ogawa! Walk! Go this way, let's kill some more soul monsters today. Aim for a first place!! The rat cat bent down and galloped forward.
The speed of the rat is very fast, and the action is very fast. From his back, he really looks like a huge mouse.
I didn't dare to hesitate, and I quickly chased after him.
This rat is really fast, if I don't walk in the clouds. At his speed, I can't keep up.
"Hehe, Ogawa! You're in a good position! After I caught up with him, he took the time to turn back to me and say a word.
"I'm just barely keeping up with you!" I said to him politely.
"No, I can tell, it's not your fastest speed!!" The mouse said to me.
"Hey, hey!" I just smiled at his words.
I was running with the rat in the thorn forest for about half an hour when the rat in front of me stopped. Then he squatted down, and when I got to him, he raised his hand and pointed it at me and said, "Look, Xiaochuan! That's the Seven-Ring Nightmare Soul Snake! ”
