Volume III, Chapter 104
In the next few days, Chen Fan spent the next few days in cultivation.
When Chen Fan was cultivating, he didn't forget to input the power of the beast soul into the bodies of the two little blood wolves at the same time to help them grow rapidly.
By the afternoon of the ninth day, with the appearance of a familiar warm current, Chen Fan's beast clan level had risen to level sixteen, which had already surpassed the fourteenth level of the human race level.
After inspecting the two little blood wolves lying on his legs, Chen Fan found that their soul strength and strength had reached the level of a sixth-level beast, and the strength of their bodies had reached the level of a seventh-level beast.
But the strange thing is that if an ordinary blood wolf has reached this level, the length of the body has reached at least two feet or more, and the weight is at least a dozen kilograms, but the two little blood wolves are still the same as before, and the body shape has not changed, but the weight seems to have increased a little, but it has not reached three kilograms.
For this, Chen Fan was also a little strange, could it be that the power of the beast soul would only allow the little blood wolf to gain the power of the growth period in advance, but it would not affect its normal development?
However, Chen Fan is still very happy about this. Because Chen Hong likes these two little blood wolves very much, he will tease them at night, and since he moved into Chen Fan's tent to sleep that night, he has stayed there and has not moved out again.
Chen Hong didn't want the little blood wolf to grow into a fierce big blood wolf, so now that the little blood wolf has increased its strength, it still maintains its young appearance, which is really the best of both worlds.
If the little blood wolf grows up early because of the increase in strength, Chen Hong may be unhappy, then Chen Fan may interrupt the artificial enhancement of the little blood wolf's soul and strength, which will be a pity.
Chen Fan stood up and walked out of the tent, and the two little blood wolves also ran out with him.
Come outside. Chen Fan saw that Chen Hong and the three of them were sorting out the collected herbs not far away, and they were placing them on the ground in different categories.
Chen Fan walked towards them.
"What are you doing?"
Chen Hong was concentrating on placing the herbs, when suddenly a voice sounded from the side, and when he looked up, he found that Chen Fan was standing next to him, looking at him with a smile. I couldn't help but jump in surprise.
"Brother Chen. Why are you here?"
"Senior brother!" Gao Qiang and Ma Shan next to him also stood up.
Chen Fan smiled and nodded to Gao Qiang, and then said to Chen Hong: "I'll come over to take a look after I finish cultivating, what are you doing now?"
"The precious medicinal herbs in the valley have basically been harvested, and we are now sorting all the medicinal herbs into categories, and then seeing what pills can be refined. Chen Hong replied with a smile.
"Oh, no wonder you asked me to bring you all the herbs I had put in place this morning. Chen Fan came to his senses: "How is it now, is it finished?"
"It's divided, now I'm looking at how many pills can be refined. Chen Hong was very excited, pointed to a bunch of herbs and said, "Look." Those are the herbs used to refine the White Creation Pill, and I didn't expect to find all the raw materials here. Speaking of this, his face darkened again: "It's a pity that these herbs are very rare, only enough to refine once, and I don't know how many Creation Pills can be refined in the end." ”
Chen Fan patted Chen Hong's shoulder and comforted: "Don't be discouraged, you can find these herbs, you are already very powerful." Others can't even collect half of the materials, but we can collect them all now. I'm already very lucky, the pills that have been refined are enough for you to use, what do you want so much. ”
At this time, the little blood wolf ran to Chen Hong's feet and arched her legs, as if to blame her for standing here and blocking them from running around Chen Fan.
Chen Hong lowered his head and looked. Immediately shouted happily: "Big Ash, Little Ash, you are here too, I miss you so much." With that, he bent down and picked up a little blood wolf.
The little blood wolf writhed his body, unwilling to be hugged by Chen Hong.
"Don't move. If you move again, I won't give you anything to eat. Chen Hong was used to the struggles of the little blood wolves, and every time he picked them up, they would writhe around.
Chen Fan smiled bitterly and soothed the little blood wolf through his soul and quieted it down.
Except for Chen Fan, the little blood wolf is not willing to contact other people, Chen Hong is already considered good, if it is Gao Qiang and Ma Shan, it is possible that he has already begun to resist the attack.
Every time Chen Hong picked up the little blood wolf, she had to be comforted by Chen Fan, and the little blood wolf would be willing to be hugged by her.
Chen Hong hugged the little blood wolf and teased for a while before he continued: "The remaining herbs can also refine some better pills such as 'Divine Power Pill' and 'Continuation Pulse Pill', not to mention those that are worse." ”
"Okay, let's start alchemy tomorrow, and when the alchemy is done, we'll go out. Chen Fan looked at Gao Qiang and Ma Shan again, nodded approvingly, "Yes, you have all improved, you must persevere, the enemy is very strong, we must have the power to protect ourselves." ”
"Yes, Senior Brother. Gao Qiang and Ma Shan agreed in unison.
The next morning, Chen Hong began to refine the pill.
Chen Fan had already built a simple wooden shed next to the mountain wall, and took out the Dan furnace and other utensils brought out from home and put them away, waiting for Chen Hong to do it.
The process of alchemy is very complicated, not only is there a lot of work, but it also needs to be very precise, even the slightest mistake may lead to the reduction of the effect of the refined pill, or even the failure of refining.
Chen Hong's current alchemy is different from the alchemy of those cultivators in the novel, as long as the materials are put into the Dan furnace, a few tricks are played, and some real fire is released, and when the time comes, the pill will naturally succeed.
Her current alchemy has to process each raw material separately, and the processing method of each material may be different, boiling, drying and grinding, cultivating and baking, or washing the herbs, and then chopping them into a paste, and then going through different processes to boil the juice, or warm fire cultivation, or boiling and slag removal, or ...... After a series of complex processes, it finally becomes Dan in the Dan furnace.
There are also two cases of this Cheng Dan:
The first is a lump that becomes a paste directly. In this case, as long as the medicine block is cut into equal volume of medicine grains, and then kneaded round and dried, you will get one pill after another.
The second is to get some powder. These medicinal powders also need to add some edible raw materials, stir them with water, divide them into pills, and then dry them with fire, and then become the final pills.
There is also a special place in the alchemy of the Natural Gate. In the process of finally becoming a pill, he will continue to input the true qi unique to the natural gate to help Cheng Dan.
This practice can enhance the efficacy of the pill, and in this case, the pill refined will increase the effect of the pill by at least two percent compared to the same type of pill, and the side effects of some pills will be reduced. Or even disappear.
Chen Fan didn't understand these complicated alchemy methods, and he couldn't help at all, so he just sat next to him and continued to cultivate while watching.
Gao Qiang and Ma Shan were on the side to help, doing some simple work to reduce Chen Hong's burden.
Time passed quietly in such a busy work, in the blink of an eye. Chen Fan has been in this valley for a month.
After so many days of hard work, Chen Hong finally finished refining all the pills that could be refined, and refined a total of three good pills:
Creation Pill (White): An elixir that can improve strength, suitable for people below the eighth level of the day after tomorrow (including the eighth level of the day after tomorrow), each pill taken will increase by one level.
Divine Power Pill: An elixir that increases strength in a short period of time, lasts for half an hour, and has no sequelae after use.
Continuation Pulse Pill: A miracle pill for the treatment of broken meridians. It has a miraculous healing effect on broken meridians caused by fighting or practicing.
The Creation Pill (white) obtained ten pieces, and the Divine Power Pill refined thirty pieces. There are only five Continuation Pulse Pills.
There are also some relatively poor pills, such as the "hemostatic powder" to stop bleeding, and the "elder-catching pill" to treat fractures, etc., all of which were included in the storage pool by Chen Fan.
Although these pills were of little use to Chen Fan, as long as he used the "Divine Light", all his injuries would be cured. However, it can still be useful in some situations where it is inconvenient to use the "divine light".
Now that the herbs in the valley have been picked and the pills have been refined, there is no need to stay here anymore, so Chen Fan decided. Rest in the valley for another night and leave the next day.
That night, a fire was set up, and a raging boar that had been put away was taken out of the storage tank, cleaned and grilled on the fire.
Everyone gathered around the fire, eating and chatting, and they were very happy, laughing from time to time. Even the two little blood wolves seemed to be infected by this atmosphere, running around Chen Fan happily, running to Chen Fan's side from time to time, raising their heads to eat.
After these twenty or so days, the two little blood wolves can already eat meat normally, and they don't need to drink broth, and at this time, the little blood wolf's soul strength and inner Dan's strength have reached the level of an eighth-level beast, and the strength of their bodies is equivalent to that of a tenth-level beast.
Because ordinary beasts and alien beasts don't pay much attention to the cultivation of the body, they all rely on their natural physique. And forty percent of the beast soul power that Chen Fan input is used for the transformation of the body's physique, so the little blood wolf's defense power is so amazing now, it is already higher than the attack power.
However, the appearance of the little blood wolf has not changed, and it still maintains its original appearance, so that every time Chen Hong sees them, little stars will appear in his eyes.
In the midst of laughing, Gao Qiang suddenly asked about the future itinerary.
"Senior brother, where are we going to go when we go out?"
"Let's go back to Nongxia Town first, ask for news, see if anyone has come to look for us, and then decide how to go. Chen Fan had already thought about this question, and he would have told them if Gao Qiang didn't ask, but now that Gao Qiang asked, he immediately said it.
"Whether or not anyone comes looking for us, we must leave Nongxia Town for the time being, and we cannot stay there for the enemy to come to us. ”
"And where are we going next?" asked Ma Shan.
"I'm going to go to the capital, although there are many strong people there, and there are many masters, but because of this, even if the Scorching Sun faction finds us there, they don't dare to gather a large group of masters to besiege us, which will provoke the interference of many masters, the number is small, and we are not afraid, so it is very safe there. ”
"Moreover, there are many pharmacies in the capital, and you should be able to collect the materials for refining a higher-level Creation Pill, and when your skill is reached, you can use the Creation Pill again to improve your skill. ”
"Also, we can also stop by to see Yu Ruoxi and see how he is now. ”
"Okay, that's it! When the time comes, you must go to Yu Ruoxi's house to see, the first business family of the Eastern Empire, it is also very face-saving to say it. Gao Qiang agreed repeatedly, he had a good impression of Yu Ruoxi.
Yu Ruoxi is bold and generous. is polite and treats everyone equally, never because he is from a big family and looks down on other people's character, not only infected Gao Qiang, but even Chen Hong and Ma Shan have a good impression of him and feel that he is very worthy of making friends. So the two also echoed and agreed to this decision.
Seeing that they all agreed, Chen Fan was also very happy in his heart, in fact, he still had a purpose that he hadn't said, that is, to go to the capital to see Qin Wen's family.
He wanted to see what extent Qin Wen's family power had reached, and he wanted to find out the situation of Qin Wen's family in advance, so that he could counterattack in the future. Although he doesn't have the confidence to confront Qin Wen's family head-on for the time being, there should be no problem with self-preservation, and he won't be mentally retarded and have a head-on conflict with Qin Wen's family now.
He wants to lurk, like a poisonous snake, and bite them when he has the opportunity.
In fact, if you calculate it carefully, the power that Chen Fan has now is already very amazing.
First of all, now the progress of his power can be described as a thousand miles in a day. Every day is different, every day is improving.
The Terran level can be upgraded by one level in about six days. As for the beast level, thanks to the help of Neidan, it will be able to increase by one level in about three days, but this speed will become slower and slower as the level continues to increase.
Now Chen Fan's human race level is sixteen, and the beast race level is nineteen.
Since Chen Fan could cultivate four powers at the same time, and each strength would correspond to a physical attribute. These four bodies can be replaced at any time.
Since the level of the beast race has now surpassed the level of the human race, Chen Fan is now using the physical attributes of the beast race.
If the physical strength of the beast clan can be perfectly superimposed with the power of the beast soul, the attack power can be compared to the innate second-level master. Even if the physical strength of the human race is perfectly superimposed with the divine qi, the attack power is equivalent to an innate first-level master.
It's a pity that Chen Fan can't perfectly stack the strength of his physical body and the power of the crystal source for the time being. It can't exert the strongest attack power, but now Chen Fan's beast clan physical strength is superimposed on the power of the beast soul, and he has also exerted the attack power of an innate first-level master.
The current Chen Fan can also be regarded as half an innate master.
Secondly, he has a large number of loyal subordinates, each of whom is incredibly powerful.
Among his subordinates, the most powerful is of course the water element.
Eleven innate third-level peak masters, sixteen innate first-level masters, plus Chen Fan's own terrifying skills, the power they exerted already had the strength to compete with the ten major sects or ten major families of the Eastern Empire.
But this is not enough, Chen Fan does not want this kind of comparable strength, he wants the strength to make the enemy irresistible, he wants to sweep the enemy with absolute superiority, and let the enemy never survive with one blow.
Therefore, now he still needs to endure, and he will not provoke Qin Wen's family until he is absolutely sure.
He had time, and with his terrifying power, he would soon be able to achieve his goal.
He now boosts not only his own power, but also the power of his minions.
If you can summon dozens of innate sixth-level water elements at the same time, plus a large number of cobra guards, who can resist?
"Qin Wen, you wait, the humiliation you imposed on me, I will get it back soon, I will make you regret it, you did that to me that day. ”
Looking at the fire, Chen Fan's gaze was unprecedentedly firm, he must become a peerless powerhouse, an invincible powerhouse who doesn't need to look at anyone's face anymore.
The dry wood that was burning in the fire was suddenly bursting, and a "pop" sound came out, accompanied by a cloud of sparks, as if celebrating the imminent birth of a future peerless powerhouse.
Nongxia Town, Chen's courtyard.
This is the place where Chen Hong and others have lived for several years, although it is very dilapidated, but it embodies the hard work of Chen Hong and others, and every brick and tile here has their sweat remaining.
Every day, around the old wooden table that has been wiped clean, sitting on a wooden bench that is shabby but still very stable, eating together, although life is sad, but the heart is a very happy day, now thinking about it, Chen Hong is still very happy.
But......
All this is gone forever, and it will never come back.
Looking at the broken old wooden table in front of him, the collapsed house, and the broken bricks and tiles scattered around, Chen Hong's tears could no longer be controlled. Roll down.
Gao Qiang and Ma Shan's faces were also gloomy, the home they had lived in for many years had become a ruin, and their hearts were also very uncomfortable.
Chen Hong threw herself into Chen Fan's arms and cried in a low voice.
Gently stroking Chen Hong's long hair, Chen Fan looked at the ruins in front of him with murderous intent in his eyes.
Since you have ruined our home. Then I will destroy your sect as well, an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.
"Okay, don't cry, I will help you build a bigger and more beautiful house when you have the opportunity to come back later, so that you can live in it comfortably and be a princess. Chen Fan stroked Chen Hong's hair and comforted her softly.
"Really, will you be with me too?" Chen Hong looked up. There were still two lines of tears on his face.
"Really. I'll be with you all the time, don't cry anymore. You see, Big Gray and Little Gray are laughing at you. Chen Fan gently wiped the tears from Chen Hong's face with his hand.
Chen Hong turned his head and saw that the two little blood wolves on the ground were at Chen Fan's feet, gently biting Chen Fan's pants, pulling them, and looking up at Chen Fan, meaning to ask Chen Fan to hug them.
Look at the cute appearance of the little blood wolf. Chen Hong couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Wiping the tears from his eyes with his little hands, he squatted down and picked up a little blood wolf. The little blood wolf twisted his body and looked at Chen Fan with his eyes, as if to say: Why didn't you hug me? I don't want her to hug me!
Seeing Chen Hong laughing, Chen Fan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart.
He didn't know how to comfort girls, and asked him to coax girls, he would rather go to a big fight.
Behind Chen Fan. It is seven girls with black veils and six big men with strong bodies, the seven girls are the seven water elements such as Shui Yiyi, and the six strong men are the cobra guards who have changed their appearance through the "summoning creature transformation technique", as for the explanation of Chen Hong and others. It's still the same old saying: sent by his master.
Although the strength of Shui Yiyi and other girls is terrifying, their appearance is too weak, and when others see them, their first thought is to occupy, not to be afraid.
Now that he has returned to human society, in order not to cause more trouble and attract people's attention, Chen Fan summoned six cobra guards and turned into six strong men.
In this way, there will be no yin and yang decline as before, and I and others will not be so eye-catching, and there should be fewer troubles.
The six cobra guards, Chen Fan named them respectively: Huo Yi, Huo Yi, Huo Shan, Fire Lion, Huo Wu, and Huo Liu. Huo Yi was the first cobra guard to be summoned, and his wisdom was the same as that of Shui Yiyi, surpassing the other cobra guards a lot.
At their feet, there was a middle-aged man in a gray robe, the middle-aged man's clothes were torn and burned, there were residual blood stains on the corners of his mouth and the clothes on his chest, and his face was shriveled, looking like he had gone through a fierce battle.
"Let's go," Chen Fan patted Chen Hong on the shoulder, "We'll come back later." ”
"Hmm!" Chen Hong responded, his smiling face a little gloomy again.
"Gaoqiang, distant mountains, let's go. ”
Chen Fan shouted, and then instructed Huo Yi to lift the middle-aged man in his heart, and then walked out first.
When he came to the field, Chen Fan asked Chen Hong and the others to wait for him in place for a while, and then he took the middle-aged man with Huo Yi and entered the woods next to him.
Entering the woods, Huo Yi threw the middle-aged man to the ground, and the middle-aged man almost screamed in pain.
"Tell me, who are you, why are you secretly following us outside the Chen family. Chen Fan's tone was extremely cold.
"I ...... You...... I'm going to ask you what about you, you hurt me for no reason, and you took me here, and you don't know who you are. The middle-aged man had an innocent look on his face.
"Ah......h
Chen Fan's hand let go of the middle-aged man's finger that had just been broken, and said coldly: "You have given up the first chance, and now is the second chance, please think clearly before answering." ”
Looking at Chen Fan with a cold face, the middle-aged man's heart couldn't help but chill, although he didn't know what kind of means Chen Fan would use to deal with him if he didn't tell the truth, but it was conceivable that it must be extremely painful.
"I ...... I'm from the Sun Seventh Team. Since the people in the Chen family killed the grandson of the second elder of our faction and fled without a trace, the captain asked me to stay there and observe to see if the people from the Chen family would come back. The middle-aged man thought about it, but decided to tell the truth, he didn't want to be tortured by the cold teenager in front of him anymore.
"What about the rest of your team?" Chen Fan continued.
"They stayed here for a few days, and no one from the Chen family showed up, so they went back to the sect to report first. I'm the only one left here. Enduring the sharp pain in his hand, the middle-aged man hurriedly replied.
"How many days does it take to get from here to your sect, and will your sect send someone back again after receiving this news?"
"It will take about twenty days to get from here to our sect on horseback, and now our sect should have received this news, as for whether it will send someone back again, I don't know. But according to the character of the second elder, it was his most beloved little grandson who died this time, and he should send someone to track you down at all costs. The middle-aged man had to answer all questions, and he had already guessed the identity of Chen Fan and others.
"Tell me about the strength of your sect. "Chen Fan doesn't really attach so much importance to the matter of the Scorching Sun Faction sending people, he just wants to know about the movements of the Scorching Sun Faction, with the strength he has now, there is no need to be afraid of the enemies of the squad at all, as long as it is not sent out, the people of the squad will come, and if they meet, they will be killed directly.
"I ...... I'm not very sure about the situation in the pie. The middle-aged man said timidly, with his identity, he really couldn't get in touch with the core secrets of the sect.
"Say as much as you know. Chen Fan glanced at the middle-aged man, and the killing intent in his eyes made him feel a chill in his heart.
"Yes, yes. The middle-aged man agreed repeatedly: "As far as I know, there are ten elders and four Dharma protectors in the sect, they are all masters of the third level or above, in addition to them, there are about thirty or so innate masters, and there are about three thousand disciples in the sect, but most of them are scattered everywhere to manage shops and experience and hunt for treasures, and the total number of disciples in the sect on weekdays is less than a thousand." ”
"What is the martial arts of the head of the Scorching Sun Sect? Who is the highest martial artist in your faction, and what realm have you reached?"
"The martial arts of the head of my sect are said to have reached the innate fourth-level realm, but I don't know if it's or not, when it comes to the highest martial arts in our sect, it should be the Great Elder, and his martial arts have reached the innate fifth-level realm ten years ago. ”
Innate level five!
It seems that he can't fight the Sun faction head-on now. Since you can't beat it, let's avoid it first.
"Whew!" a finger shot out, opening a hole in the middle-aged man's forehead.
When the middle-aged man lost his breath, there was still a stunned look on his face, as if he didn't believe that Chen Fan would kill him.
"I won't keep you to report the news, if you want to blame it, you will be blamed on the Burning Sun faction. Chen Fan said lightly and turned to leave.
Huo Yi also followed behind Chen Fan and left the woods. Only the middle-aged man in the woods was left with wide eyes and dead eyes.
Returning to Chen Hong and the others, Chen Fan didn't say much, just said that the Liesun Faction had already received the news that their people had been killed here, and that he and the others would become enemies of the Liesun Sect in the future.
In order not to be traced down by the people of the Liesun faction, he could not go to the town to buy horses and hire carriages, so he could only leave on foot.
Considering that Chen Hong's martial arts were too low, it was difficult to keep up with the long-distance journey, so Chen Fan ordered Huowu and Huoliu to carry Gao Qiang and Ma Shan respectively, Shui Yiyi carried Chen Hong on his back, and the two little blood wolves were lying on Chen Fan's shoulders on both sides, and a group of more than a dozen people rushed away from Nongxia Town into the distance, and disappeared in the vast forest sea in a blink of an eye. (To be continued......)
