Chapter 40: One Hundred Thousand Mountains
The news of the death of Hou Tianba, the head of the Martial Hall of Kunshan City, quickly spread throughout Kunshan City, causing a great shock.
And Hou Zhengqing's abolition shocked the high-level of An Yunguo, after all, Hou Zhengqing is a disciple of the Great Elder of Luoxia Sect, and his identity is not trivial.
Ye Xiang's name, overnight, spread throughout the entire Anyun Kingdom, but all martial cultivators knew that there was such a figure.
The rumors about Ye Xiang are also becoming more and more mysterious, some say that Ye Xiang is a great martial artist, some say that he is a vicious, bloodthirsty murderer, and some say that he is a real demon.
Subsequently, An Yunguo issued a high bounty to find Ye Xiang's whereabouts.
On the contrary, it was the Luoxia Sect, there was no movement, only some gossip came out, saying that the great elder of the Luoxia Sect personally went out of the customs and vowed to Ye Xiang, but no one knew how it was for the time being.
In a cave five hundred miles away from Kunshan City, Ye Xiang was sitting cross-legged inside, his breath was thick, and the three true qi flowed back and forth around his body, condensing and thickening, and even a trace of true yuan penetrated into the bones through the flesh and blood.
"True Yuan penetrates the bones! After a while, you can try to break through. Ye Xiang exhaled a deep breath of turbidity.
In the battle of the Hou family the day before yesterday, Ye Xiang benefited a lot, not only did his actual combat experience improve a lot, but even the true yuan in his body was much thicker, and he had already taken a step towards the level of a high-ranking martial artist.
Killing Hou Tianba, that is the other party's intention to kill himself, and the same is true for Xue Buyi, and it is not a matter of once or twice, and these two are not a good thing.
Hou Tianba was originally the head of the Hou family, and he was a brutal and murderous figure, Xue Bushi was insidious and cunning, as the hall master and chief sect head of Kunshan City, he once did not hesitate to kill his two sworn brothers in order to compete for these two positions.
"Huh? Where is this? A voice sounded from the side, and I saw Xing Han open his loose eyes and ask in a whisper.
"Brother Star is awake? This is a cave 500 miles away from Kunshan City, which is relatively hidden and difficult for ordinary people to find. Ye Xiang said.
"Five hundred miles away from Kunshan City?" Xing Han was stunned, "Brother Ye, aren't we in the inn?" How did you come here? ”
"Something happened yesterday......"
Ye Xiang hesitated, and then told him everything about yesterday, including Xing Han's fascination with the ghost incense.
Hearing these words, Xing Han's face changed slightly, and when she heard that Ye Xiang broke into the Hou family alone to save her, an inexplicable warmth swelled in her heart, she had never felt this before.
"Then you came with me last night?" Xing Han asked in a trembling voice.
"Of course."
"What about you...... Is there a ......" Xing Han was halfway through his words, and his cheeks suddenly turned crimson.
"Is there anything?" Ye Xiang looked puzzled.
"Oh, nothing."
Xing Han hurriedly changed the topic and said, "Then Brother Ye, what are your plans now?" Why don't you come with me to Silvermoon Island? ”
"Silver Moon Island......" Ye Xiang hesitated, shook his head and said, "No, I still have some things to do, and I can't go to Silver Moon Island for the time being." ”
Hearing this, Xing Han's expression was full of loss.
Sensing Xing Han's expression, Ye Xiang said: "Brother Xing doesn't need to be like this, I will definitely go to Yinyue Island to see you another day when I have time." ”
"Really?" Xing Han's face was happy.
"Of course, it shouldn't be too long, about half a year at most."
"Alright, I'll wait for you on Silvermoon Island." Xinghan said.
Afterwards, the two chatted for a while, and finally under Xinghan's reluctant gaze, the two said goodbye to each other.
Seeing Xing Han, who was stepping on the jade feather sword flying away, Ye Xiang suddenly remembered something, and almost forgot to ask about Xing Han's jade feather sword, but then thought about it, maybe Xing Han used his sister's.
The reason why he didn't follow Xing Han to Yinyue Island was that Ye Xiang was not familiar with Yinyue Island, and secondly, he had a deep hatred of blood and a lot of things to do.
"I have to restore my own Tianwu vein first...... Ye Xiang said in his heart.
Restoring the martial veins that have been taken away is almost impossible for ordinary people, just like people who have had their hands and feet cut off, how can they grow again?
Ye Xiang knew a method, this method could only be done by a refiner, but the chance of recovery was very slim, but he still planned to try it.
The existence of the Tianwu vein is extremely important to Ye Xiang.
There is a big gap between a martial cultivator who has a martial vein and a martial cultivator who does not. Just like Ye Xiang, why did he practice martial arts at the age of three and become a martial artist at the age of six? Just because he has the Tianwu vein.
Moreover, with the improvement of the realm level, especially after reaching the martial artist level, most of the many martial cultivators will be trapped at a certain level, and it is difficult to go further, and the most important qualification is limited.
Ye Xiang is already sixteen years old, and now he has only recovered to the level of a mid-level martial artist, in the absence of the Tianwu Vein, it will take at least ten years or so to restore the strength of the peak of the previous year, and if the Tianwu Vein recovers, it will take three years at most.
Time waits for no one, the golden period of a martial cultivator's cultivation is from sixteen to thirty years old, just fourteen years, if you can't make a breakthrough, the older you get, the faster your potential will be depleted, and it will be almost impossible to reach a higher level at that time.
"In order to restore the Tianwu vein, you must know that your Tianwu vein has been truncated...... Then you need a pulse-fixing potion. And this kind of elixir is one of the high-grade elixirs, and the materials required are scarce, and they are extremely rare. And if you want to restore the Heavenly Martial Vein, you must find many precious herbs, and even some rare elixirs. Ye Xiang rubbed his eyebrows.
The herbs needed for the pulse-fixing elixir alone are a very large amount, and even some of them are priceless.
If he was in the Star Picking Sect, Ye Xiang would be able to get it together quickly, but in Anyun's country, it would be almost impossible to find these things.
"It's better to go to Penglai City to have a look." Ye Xiang said in his heart.
This Penglai City is located in the Dali Dynasty, and it is the closest dynasty to Anyun Kingdom, although Penglai City is not the imperial capital of the Dali Dynasty, but it is also one of the big cities, and Ye Xiang also wants to meet Dongfang Jian, after all, the two chatted speculatively that day.
"Let's go to the 100,000 Mountains first to see if we can find the Nine Turns Golden Spirit Fruit." Ye Xiang made a decision, this decision was indeed very risky, and if he was not careful, he might die in the 100,000 mountains, but for the improvement of spiritual power, it was not enough to rely on the concentrating elixir.
The Nine Turns Golden Spirit Fruit is one of the elixirs, and it is extremely rare.
Although Ye Xiang can still refine the concentrating elixir, this elixir has a flaw, that is, if you take it the second time, the effect will be halved, and by the third time, it will hardly have much effect. As for the rest of the elixirs that increase spiritual power, Ye Xiang had the recipe in his hand, but he didn't have the materials, and even if he refined it, it was still unknown whether it would succeed, because the grades of those potions were all above the high level, and there were even pills.
The medicine is divided into four levels: primary, middle, high and top, and above the medicine, it is the elixir, which is condensed by a special technique, the former is a liquid, the latter is a concentrated solid, in terms of efficacy, the elixir far exceeds the elixir.
But the elixir is not so easy to refine, only those master-level figures can have a way to refine the elixir.
With Ye Xiang's ability, it is extremely difficult to refine the elixir, the most important thing is that the materials are too scarce, not to mention the rarity of many materials, and the price is even more frighteningly high.
Ye Xiang did not return to Kunshan City, but entered the Lianyun Mountains along the west.
…………
Roar......
A second-order top fierce beast, the Armored Rhinoceros Beast, pounced, and a young man jumped up, accompanied by the Thousand Fist Shadows fused into one, and smashed the Armored Rhinoceros Beast's head with one punch.
Before the boy could fall, the other two armored rhinoceros beasts had already rushed up, their thick limbs stamping on the ground, causing the ground to rumble and tremble.
The young man's eyes condensed slightly.
Sigh ......
A sharp sound of breaking through the air came, and two cold lights flickered, and the two rushing armored rhinoceros beasts stumbled out, knocked down a row of trees, and could no longer get up, a slit appeared on their foreheads, and they were killed by sharp objects through their heads.
At this time, the boy fell back to the ground, and two small swords as thin as cicada wings slowly floated down, circled around his hand, and then were withdrawn.
It has been three days since Ye Xiang came to the Lianyun Mountain Range, and the deeper he went, the more terrifying the fierce beasts he encountered, there were very few first-order fierce beasts, most of them were second-order, and sometimes even third-order.
If it was just a second-order fierce beast, as long as it was not in groups, Ye Xiang could handle it. If you encounter a third-order fierce beast, if it is a low-level fierce beast, you can also kill it with the ability of the emperor, and if you are stronger, you can only retreat.
Under the fierce battle, Ye Xiang's control of the small sword is getting stronger and stronger, but the loss is still the same, it can only last for ten breaths at most, and if it is longer, the spiritual power will be exhausted, and there will be severe pain in the head, it doesn't matter in ordinary times, but if there is a sharp head pain when dealing with a fierce beast, it will inevitably suffer.
Ye Xiang ran the Three Qi Transformation Yuan Gong, and the true yuan in his body slowly grew, and the true yuan that penetrated into his bones was much more than three days ago.
"I'm afraid it will take less than a month to break through." Ye Xiang was very pleased, this time it was not in vain, while killing the fierce beast, the true yuan in his body was also constantly getting the opportunity to condense, and the true yuan condensed in the past three days was much higher than he expected.
Just as Ye Xiang was about to walk, suddenly there was a sound of Suo Suo from the bushes, and it was the sound of footsteps.
Someone......
Ye Xiang frowned.
In the past three days, he has gone deep into the Lianyun Mountain Range, and he has not encountered anyone other than the fierce beasts, mainly because the fierce beasts here are too terrifying, and ordinary martial artists dare not approach this place lightly.
Whew......
Three figures swept out, it was two men and one woman, these three people were wearing light martial armor, and the vital position was protected by heart goggles, the true yuan on these three people was extremely thick, and the skin was blooming with a rich luster, and the flow of true yuan was from the skin to the bones, at least the characters at the upper level of martial artists.
