Chapter 82: Xuanshi Intermediate Rank

Chen Ning's Purple Frost Sword was extremely fast, at this critical moment, although the Red Scorpion had tried its best to avoid the sword stabbed by Chen Ning, but under the shroud of Chen Ning's divine sense, no matter how the Red Scorpion's head shook, it was directly predicted by Chen Ning, and it was completely impossible to dodge, and was finally stabbed in the corner of the eye by the Purple Frost Sword.

When the Purple Frost Sword just touched the eyes of the Red Scorpion, which had been closed, the sword momentum was slightly blocked and paused, but the next moment, the sharp tip of the Purple Frost Sword directly and easily broke through the defense of the eyelid and directly pierced into the green eyes of the Red Scorpion.

Almost at the same time, Chen Ning's entire body was completely enveloped by a thick layer of red evil qi.

"Shhh

The corner of his eye was wounded, and the intense pain caused the red scorpion to let out a very piercing and undeniable hiss, and the fiery red liquid slowly flowed out of his eyes, and the rows of teeth as small as needles in the mouth that were wide open because of the severe pain looked so terrifying.

On the opposite side of the red scorpion, a red evil qi shook slightly, and the image of Chen Ning, who was shrouded, jumped out of the evil qi in a lightning flash, and the current image of Chen Ning was very different from before, only to see that his whole body was dyed with a layer of red liquid, and the coarse cloth clothes worn on his body were also rapidly melting at a speed visible to the naked eye, and even the long hair on his head was turned into ashes in an instant, and the whole person looked like he had just jumped out of a big red dye vat.

Feeling the burning pain coming from his body, Chen Ning's face showed a look of pain, and he said in a deep voice, "It's so intensely poisonous!" With that, Chen Ning reached out and quickly tore off the coarse cloth clothes on his body that had been corroded by the evil qi, still on the side, and then quickly operated the Xuan Qi in his body to resist the invasion of the evil qi into his body.

didn't have time to think about it, Chen Ning looked at the red scorpion that was already blind and was constantly screaming in pain at the moment, and knew in his heart that this was the best opportunity for him to kill the red scorpion, and then, a fierce killing intent flashed in his eyes, and he didn't care that he was naked now, so he raised his sword naked and ran towards the red scorpion.

As Chen Ning's pace moved, the immortal whip on his thigh also swayed from side to side, just blinking, Chen Ning's figure had already come to the side of the red scorpion, his arm shook, and the purple frost sword in his hand turned into a purple light driven by his arm, stabbing towards the throat of the red scorpion, and at the moment when the purple frost sword stabbed out, the sword body suddenly burst out with an extremely powerful sword qi, although the sword qi was very dim, but it was extremely powerful, and the Dao sword was constantly flickering and jumping, like a brilliant purple ribbon, flashing in the air。

"Ding!"

Chen Ning's Purple Frost Sword accurately hit the throat of the Red Scorpion, and when the tip of the sword touched a layer of faint red scales at the throat of the Red Scorpion, it made a sound like metal colliding, but this layer of scales that was not weak in defense was as fragile as a page of paper under the sharp sword qi of the Purple Frost Sword, and the next moment, the sharp sword qi on the Purple Frost Sword had already broken through the defense of the scales and deeply pierced into the throat of the Red Scorpion.

"Shhh

The red scorpion let out an incomparably desolate hiss again, and in the remaining intact eye, the original flickering green light turned into a whole body of red, just when Chen Ning thought that the red scorpion was about to fight back, the poisonous hook hanging behind the red scorpion fell weakly to the ground, and the body of the red scorpion fell to the ground with a bang, and began to twitch directly on the ground.

Chen Ning pulled out the Purple Frost Sword that had completely pierced the throat of the Red Scorpion, looked at the Red Scorpion that was twitching slightly in front of him, and let out a long breath and said, "It's so dangerous, if this Red Scorpion fights back on the verge of death, it will be in danger, but it was killed by itself after all." ”

Just when Chen Ning was about to cut open the head of the red scorpion and take out the demon core, he felt that the evil qi on his body was constantly invading his body, his brows furrowed slightly, and then he quickly sat cross-legged, and the Xuan Qi in his body began to resist.

Ten minutes later, when Chen Ning forced out all the evil qi of the red scorpion, he slowly stood up, and then picked up the space ring from the residue of the clothes that had been corroded to ashes by the evil qi not far away, and took out a set of clothes to change for himself.

Looking at the golden space ring in his hand, Chen Ning couldn't help but show a smile on his face, and said in a low voice, "What a good baby, it can still be unharmed even after being wrapped in evil qi." After saying that, Chen Ning picked up the Purple Frost Sword and began to cut open the head of the red scorpion, taking out a demon core that was slightly larger than a glass ball.

After taking out the demon core, Chen Ning left directly, and the corpse of the red scorpion lying on the ground, Chen Ning didn't care about it, although the corpses of some demon beasts and some parts can also be sold for a lot of money, but this red scorpion is just a second-order demon beast, with limited value, even if it is sold, it can't be sold for much money, and the space of the space ring is only so large, so Chen Ning did not include it in the space ring.

For a whole afternoon, Chen Ning slowed down, carefully going deep in the Demon Beast Mountain Range, and kept saying that at night, he had only found three demon beasts, except for the red scorpion that he encountered as soon as he entered, the remaining two demon beasts were a second-order and a first-order one.

At night, a bright moon hung high in the sky, on a relatively spacious ground, a bonfire was burning with blazing fireworks, Chen Ning sat cross-legged in front of the bonfire, holding a large branch in his hand, wearing a large piece of demon beast meat on the branch, under the continuous barbecue of the flames, the color of the meat piece was slowly changing to golden yellow, and a drop of grease was squeezed out of the meat block, and it fell low in the bonfire below, making a "snort" sound.

After a full meal, Chen Ning took out some powder with a special taste from the space ring and sprinkled it around, these powders were extremely ordinary powders on the Xuantian Continent to prevent poisonous snakes and poisonous insects, almost every mercenary would carry some with them, and Chen Ning was no exception.

After sprinkling the powder, Chen Ning jumped directly onto a big tree next to him, found a relatively stable branch on the big tree and sat down cross-legged, and then took out a small bottle from the space ring again, and randomly sprinkled some on his body, the powder in this bottle can effectively isolate the breath on his body, and avoid the leakage of the breath on his body at night, which will attract some demon beasts, after all, the sense of smell of demon beasts is extremely sensitive.

After the safety work was done, Chen Ning directly took out two demon cores, held one in each hand, and then slowly closed his eyes and began to absorb the energy in the demon core and cultivate.

When Chen Ning was running the exercises, the energy in the demon core frantically poured into Chen Ning's body at a very terrifying speed, and such a fast absorption speed naturally caused a feeling of swelling pain to the meridians of Chen Ning's body, but Chen Ning had long been used to it, and this feeling of swelling pain was nothing at all.

The energy in the demon core is composed of a pure and violent factor, when Chen Ning was so crazy to absorb the energy in the demon core, the violent factor in that energy also quickly converged in his body, but just when this violent factor reached a certain level in his body, suddenly, a pulling force came from Chen Ning's dantian and the purple sword, absorbing all these violent factors.

On the Xuantian Continent, anyone who absorbs the energy in the demon core, although they can improve their cultivation speed extremely quickly, but the violent factors hidden in the demon core will also be lurking in the body, and it is nothing at first, but when these violent factors accumulate to a certain extent, when the absorber cannot control these factors, the meridians will be destroyed, the dantian will explode, and he will become a waste, or he will go crazy and die directly.

Therefore, in the Xuantian Continent, there is almost no one like Chen Ning who directly inhales the energy in the demon core into his body, and even the World Chamber of Commerce refines the pure energy in the demon core and then sells it, but these all require strong manpower and material resources.

When the energy in the demon core entered the body, it was divided, and then absorbed by the small sword and cyan light, so that Chen Ning could absorb it without any scruples, which made Chen Ning have a great advantage over others in terms of cultivation.

As more and more energy was absorbed by Chen Ning, Chen Ning could clearly feel that the Xuan Qi in his body was transforming at an extremely fast speed, becoming more and more refined, although a lot of energy was absorbed by the cyan light and purple sword in the dantian, but Chen Ning knew very well that his cultivation speed was already very fast compared to others, and it could even be said to be terrifying.

Cultivating at this rate, Chen Ning believed that his strength would be able to break through to the second order of the Xuan Master tonight.

The next day, when the sunlight in the sky shone through the gaps in the dense leaves, Chen Ning, who was sitting cross-legged on the branches, also slowly opened his eyes, and then turned over and jumped directly from the branches, landing firmly on the ground.

Chen Ning moved his muscles and bones, felt the pure Xuan Qi in his body, and couldn't help but show a satisfied smile on his face, he could clearly feel that he had already stepped into the realm of the second order of the Xuan Master, and he believed that it would not be long before he could step into the third order of the Xuan Master.

If others knew that it only took less than a month for Chen Ning to step from the first order of the Xuan Master to the second order of the Xuan Master after breaking through the Xuan Master, I am afraid that many people would feel unbelievable.

After eating something casually to fill his stomach, Chen Ning once again headed towards the depths of the Demon Beast Mountain Range.

.......

Time passed in a hurry, and in the blink of an eye, more than a month had passed, and at the foot of a mountain in the Demon Beast Mountain Range, a young man in a coarse cloth was confronting a pitch-black, two-meter-high, three-meter-long wolf-shaped demon beast.

The young man held a purple sword in his hand, and his tall body stood there, giving people a steadiness like a mountain, and his face was pitch black with dirt and some dust, and his face was completely indistinguishable from his face.

The wolf-shaped demon beast on the opposite side of the young man had a pair of eyes full of ferocity, staring at the young man with a dead gaze, and a low roar kept coming out of his mouth, its front body squatted slightly, and its hind limbs were tightly supported on the ground, obviously ready to attack at any time.

"Roar!"

Suddenly, the wolf-shaped demon beast let out a low roar, and its hind limbs kicked violently, leaving a shallow mark on the ground, and its entire body turned into a black shadow and rushed towards the young man who was less than ten meters away from it in front of it, and when the body was still in mid-air, the wolf-shaped demon beast opened its bloody mouth, and for a while, the sharp teeth exposed in the mouth flashed with a palpitating cold light.

Seeing this, the young man's eyes showed a trace of coldness, and the purple long sword in his hand suddenly emitted a sharp sword light, and then the long sword waved, only to see a purple sword qi detached from the tip of the sword, shooting towards the big mouth of the wolf-shaped demon beast, but the wolf-shaped demon beast's reaction was not slow, just when this purple sword qi was about to reach its mouth, the wolf-shaped demon beast's head was slightly biased, and it dodged the oncoming sword qi by centimeters, despite this, the sword qi still grazed its head and flew past, leaving a clearly visible blood mark on the wolf-shaped demon beast's head。

Although the head was slightly wounded, the speed of the wolf-shaped demon beast did not decrease, and it still maintained its previous speed and pounced towards the young man.

The corners of the young man's mouth turned up slightly, revealing a look of disdain, and then the fierce killing intent in his eyes flashed away, and the purple long sword held in his hand had turned into a bolt of lightning and stabbed towards the throat of the wolf-shaped demon beast.

The speed of this sword is very fast, incredibly fast, so that the wolf-shaped demon beast has no time to dodge, and even before the nerves in his brain can react, the purple long sword has broken through the defense of its throat, and directly pierced deeply into the throat, and finally stopped when the throat of this wolf-shaped demon beast reached the hilt of the long sword, and the other end of the long sword, already stained with blood, broke out from the back of the wolf-shaped demon beast's neck, and slammed it diagonally, and a drop of blood continued to fall on the back of the wolf-shaped demon beast.

The young man slowly pulled out the long sword that pierced into the body of the wolf-shaped demon beast, and then, the blood stained with the purple long sword actually strangely converged towards the tip of the sword, and finally quickly fell into the dirt on the ground along the tip of the sword, and in the blink of an eye, the long sword that was originally stained with blood had already turned purple again, without a trace of debris.

This young man is Chen Ning who is alone in the Demon Beast Mountain Range, unconsciously, he has been in the Demon Beast Mountain Range for two or three months, and in the two or three months in the Demon Beast Mountain Range, Chen Ning has been constantly running around in the outer areas of the Mountain Range during the day, and at night he is desperately cultivating, during this time, Chen Ning is trying his best to improve his strength.

And after two or three months of cultivation, his current strength has broken through the fifth order of the Xuanshi and reached the realm of the middle level of the Xuanshi, in just two or three months, Chen Ning has broken through from a cultivator who has just entered the Xuanshi to the middle level of the Xuanshi in one fell swoop, if this speed is passed out, it will definitely cause a shock.

Because ordinary people want to improve their strength from the first level of the Xuanshi to the middle level of the Xuanshi, it is impossible without two or three years, even if it is some genius-like figures, it will take a year at the earliest, and Chen Ning's terrifying cultivation speed, except for the disciples of the four major immortal sects and the Heavenly Empire on the Xuantian Continent, is absolutely incredible for ordinary people.

After his strength was raised to the middle level of the Xuanshi, Chen Ning's combat power was also rapidly improved, and his combat experience became more and more abundant, at this time, it was already very easy for him to hunt second-order demon beasts, unless he encountered some second-order high-level demon beasts, he would feel some pressure.

The purple frost sword in his hand lightly picked at the wolf-shaped demon beast's head, and suddenly, a demon core stained with a little blood was directly picked out of the demon beast's head by Chen Ning, turned into an arc, and fell into Chen Ning's hands.

After wiping the blood stains on the demon core, Chen Ning looked at the fiery red demon core, a smile appeared on his face, and he muttered to himself, "Today's luck is good, this is already the seventeenth second-order demon core." After speaking, Chen Ning put the demon core into the space ring, ignored the corpse of the demon beast lying on the ground, chose a direction, and quickly left here.
