Volume 1 Chapter 2 Shadow Cat
The pendant was unusually ordinary, just a rope strung with a stone, but it was the only relic his parents had left him. I heard Uncle Huang say that this stone was not this appearance before, but a black and white alternate, extremely mysterious strange stone, when the coup d'état in the forest wilderness, it is said that it was acquiesced by the Five Elements Sect of Tianji Mountain, and also sent elite disciples to help, most of them wanted to get this treasure.
Thinking of the Five Elements Sect of Tianji Mountain, Lin Yuan couldn't help but grit his teeth. Listening to Uncle Huang's relay, Lin Huang only had the strength of the late stage of the streamer at that time, and the reason why he was able to defeat his father in the early stage of the transformation was because of Lu Yan of the Five Elements Sect. Lu Yan was originally the great elder of the Five Elements Sect, and he was also the grandson of Lu Ming, the founder of the Five Elements Sect, and his strength had already turned into a shadow at that time. The huge palace is not so much a coup d'état as a one-sided massacre.
It's just that since this stone followed Lin Yuan, it has become unremarkable, and Lin Yuan just thinks about his parents.
When the scorching sun subsided slightly, Lin Yuan retracted his mind, cleaned up and went out, his steps were fast, like a cheetah into the mountains, he was as light as a swallow, shuttling back and forth between the dense branches and leaves, sometimes tapping the branches, and jumping to a higher place with a roll, just like a martial arts master.
Now his strength, speed and body technique have reached the state of perfection of the fourth layer of external strength, he can smash the boulder with his bare hands, bounce twenty meters high on the spot, and as long as he makes another breakthrough, he can reach the fifth layer of external strength.
Although Uncle Wang, the "No. 1 master" in the village, has the strength of the sixth layer of external strength, his teaching can no longer satisfy Lin Yuan's current state, so every afternoon Lin Yuan will come to the mountains and forests to carry out a unique cultivation - hunting.
Lin Yuan's hunting method is different from others, because the Yuanwu Continent is full of vitality, the beasts here are also much more powerful than when he was on the earth, and the villagers are often in groups and fully armed to deal with them, while Lin Yuan is not only alone, but also bare-handed, only for the purpose of cultivating actual combat, to stimulate his greatest potential in life and death.
Lin Yuan was originally born as a special soldier, and the rules of survival in the jungle have long been familiar with it, and after a while, he came to the depths of the forest, he jumped and stood on the top of the highest tree nearby.
A tiger roar came from the depths of the jungle, Lin Yuan's eyes lit up, and as soon as his feet were forced, he flew over half of the valley and disappeared into the green shade.
The yellow-bodyed, black-striped tiger with two heads and feet the size of an adult was full of hostility towards the uninvited guest in front of him, but his eyes flashed with greed, he was originally the king of the mountain, and ordinary humans were just delicious food in its eyes, it didn't care about the elk it had just hunted, and turned to Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan was bare-handed, his eyes were full of fighting intent, although fighting with the tiger with his bare hands required at least six layers of strength like Uncle Wang's, but Lin Yuan was born in a special forces in his previous life, and he was running around for peacekeeping missions all year round, and he was the number one soldier who had gone through the baptism of life and death, and he had very rich combat experience, coupled with some physical moves that Uncle Huang had taught him since he was a child, Lin Yuan was confident and invincible.
He quickly dodged to the side, and slashed at the tiger's waist with his palm as a blade, and the tiger roared and was swept away by the volley, and was knocked out two or three meters away before falling heavily to the ground, and the tiger was even more angry when he swept the ground, got up and began to attack again.
Lin Yuan chuckled, and secretly said that this tiger really had rough skin and thick flesh, and the palm of his hand hurt a little when he hit his body, he shook his hand and concentrated on catching the tiger's trajectory.
The reason why the tiger is the king of the mountain is not only that its teeth and claws are extremely sharp, but also that its speed is very fast, Lin Yuan knows that this tiger is only careless because of Lin Yuan's way, and it will be difficult to get a bargain next.
After a few rounds, Lin Yuan avoided several attacks from the tiger, but his fists and feet hit the tiger without pain or itching.
Lin Yuan's body footwork was taught by Uncle Huang, called You Dragon Step, and after performing it, he was not only as light as a swallow, but also could walk on the ground no matter how rugged and bumpy the environment was.
The external skill stage of this world is very similar to the martial arts novels of Lin Yuan's previous life, cultivating internal force, practicing the cheats of exercises, just like this dragon step, its own internal force is blessed on the soles of the feet through a unique running line, and it can burst out with speed and flexibility far beyond ordinary people.
After a stick of incense, Lin Yuan was quite satisfied with his dragon steps, and immediately lost the interest of continuing to "learn" with the tiger, and couldn't help but adjust his breath, and put his hands in a peculiar shape one after the other.
"Open the Mountain!"
The oncoming tiger let out a miserable cry in the air, and then catapulted out in the opposite direction, smashing heavily on the uncle in the distance, the tiger's mouth and nose were overflowing with blood, and its limbs fluttered a few times, but it couldn't stand up, its eyes were full of horror, and it couldn't imagine how the fist, which was not painful or itchy, suddenly burst out with such great power.
If a mortal wants to cultivate the Yuan, he must first have the foundation of the ten layers of external power, and during the period of cultivating external power, it is not the Yuan Force that circulates in the body, but is collectively referred to as the internal force.
Heaven and earth vitality is everywhere, and there is also a small amount of heaven and earth vitality entering the body between breaths, although ordinary people can't sense it, they can also use it to cultivate internal force, and then borrow internal force and external strength to exercise their body, bones, skin, essence and spirit, this is the external master in the eyes of ordinary people.
Lin Yuan's "Dragon Walk" and "Mountain Opening Palm" are the specific external forms of internal force, which are collectively referred to as "martial arts" in this world.
The power of martial arts is big and small, and it is not limited to the realm of external skills, it is said that those cultivators with great magical powers still practice the corresponding martial arts cheats, but the power is greater, and ordinary people can't imagine.
The tiger struggled to stand up, but the blood in his mouth and nose increased, and he couldn't survive. And just as Lin Yuan was about to make up for it and send the tiger directly on the road, there were bursts of terrible screams from the depths of the forest.
"Help!!!"
"Big ...... Big cow!"
Lin Yuan was startled, and he didn't care about the dying tiger in front of him, and rushed straight towards the depths of the forest.
The source of the cry was not far from Lin Yuan's location, that is, Lin Yuan had already arrived in a few breaths, but when he saw the scene in front of him, he couldn't help but gasp.
I saw two teenagers of his age covered in wounds, hugging each other tightly and huddled in the corner, shivering, their eyes full of horror, and not far in front of them, a slightly larger boy fell in a pool of blood, no longer a piece of good flesh on his body, as if he had died.
And on the boy's corpse, a tanuki covered in black hair but emitting a strange light was staring fiercely at Lin Yuan, who had just arrived.
If you look closely, the cat still has an eye on its forehead, but it is completely closed at this time, and there is still light blue blood flowing from it.
Shadow Cat!
The Yuanwu Continent is vast and boundless, and although the human race is dominant, there are also other powerful species, which can also cultivate the Yuan after being psychic, collectively known as spirit beasts.
According to the division of talents, spirit beasts are divided into gods, immortals, heaven, and earth four orders, also known as divine beasts, fairy beasts, heavenly beasts and earth beasts, among which the divine beasts are the most powerful, and they have inherited the natural supernatural powers since the bloodline, and have almost endless longevity, and the ability to reproduce is extremely weak, and they have always been in a single line, and the growth time of the divine beasts is hundreds of thousands of years, and the reproduction is almost extinct so far, which is already a legendary existence.
Immortal beasts and divine beasts are generally the same rare existence, although they do not have natural supernatural powers, but they have the blood of immortal beasts in the same level they are almost invincible, as long as they are given space to grow, they can look at the world, looking at the Yuanwu Continent, there are only a few dozen ancient Xiuyuan sects and families, and any release will cause turmoil in the Yuanwu Continent.
As for the Heavenly Beast, its strength in the same realm is also far beyond ordinary people, and many large sects and families will worship a Heavenly Beast as a hole card, for example, the Five Elements Sect of Tianji Mountain in the Yan Kingdom is offering a Red Flame Snake that has reached the Guiyuan Realm Heavenly Beast, as long as the Red Flame Snake does not die for a day, the first position of the Yan Kingdom of the Five Elements Sect will be unshakable.
Earth beasts are the most common in the Yuanwu Continent, but it does not mean that the strength of the earth beasts is extremely weak, you must know that as long as it can be called a spirit beast, it is a great supernatural power who has been psychic and can cultivate the Yuan, and the worst is also the spirit realm, which is far from what Lin Yuan, a small shrimp who has not even cultivated to the extreme, can deal with.
Lin Yuan has liked to listen to Uncle Huang tell some strange things on the Yuanwu Continent since he was a child, so he can distinguish some common spirit beasts, this shadow cat is also an extremely rare existence among earth beasts, the shadow cat is extremely fast, ordinary people can't see its trace at all, its sharp front claws can instantly tear mortals apart, and its most dangerous place is not only that.
The Shadow Cat has three eyes, and when someone makes eye contact with the third eye on its forehead, it can create an illusion that makes people fall into a mist of illusions, at which point the Shadow Cat uses its speed and front paws to attack, and it is impossible to prevent it.
Lin Yuan is like a great enemy, but his mind is running quickly, the more dangerous the situation, the more calm he must be, it is the psychological quality that Lin Yuan has long had in his previous life, compared to the earth beast, his cultivation is estimated to have died the moment he saw the shadow cat, but this shadow cat just stared at himself with a fierce face and did not launch an attack at the first time, it is obvious that there is a lot of article in it.
The Shadow Cat's third eye could no longer be opened, and it was obvious that it could no longer activate the illusion, and Lin Yuan found that there was faint blue blood flowing out of several places on its body, but it was well covered by black hair. Its eyes, though fierce, were full of exhaustion, and it seemed to show some signs of unsteadiness.
It was wounded, and it was very badly wounded.
If so, everything made sense, Lin Yuan held the dagger at his waist with his right hand hidden behind his back, ready to deal with a sudden attack at any time.
These teenagers of the same age as him were obviously from the next village, but for some reason they ran to this deep mountain and old forest, and they also encountered spirit beasts that had never been seen in the mountains and forests. And now, even if Lin Yuan wants to escape, I'm afraid it's delusional.
After such a short stalemate for a short time, the shadow cat couldn't help but attack, turning into a black shadow and attacking Lin Yuan's life.
