Chapter Eighty-Three: A Year Later
Thousands of vines weave layers of green nets in the forest, or entangled, or wandering, or elegant, like tangible music, like silent poetry and painting. And the trees in the forest are so straight, straight, standing on the mountainside, whether overlooking or looking up, the densely tied tree poles, like the warp in the hands of the textile woman, the trees on the cliff are even more amazing, chanting the breeze and the moon, composing a symphony of life.
Suddenly, a black shadow suddenly appeared in this beautiful scenery, his body swayed, like a ghost, constantly shuttling between the trees, galloping towards a big tree.
Here, an adult clouded leopard lies quietly on a tree branch, its green eyes fixed on the ground.
As if sensing the impending crisis, the hair on the clouded leopard's body suddenly stood upside down, and even the whole body seemed to grow larger at this moment.
It roared, strained its limbs, and lunged toward the black shadow that was rushing towards it.
However, the black shadow suddenly accelerated in mid-air, and rushed towards it like a meteor catching the moon.
The black shadow and the clouded leopard staggered in an instant, and the void splashed a waterfall of blood.
Zheng Haotian stretched out his feet on the big tree and gently fell to the ground. And it was only at this moment that the clouded leopard, whose neck was completely severed, fell to the ground.
Turning around, Zheng Haotian walked steadily to the dead clouded leopard, and his gaze when he looked at the leopard's corpse no longer had any excitement and guilt, but was only filled with a kind of indifferent indifference.
In the jungle, the strong are kings, and the fittest survive.
He has gradually become accustomed to this naked rule of survival.
The corners of his mouth cracked slightly, and he smiled mockingly. Sure enough, after killing, the heart will become cold and ruthless.
He even killed his own kind, so if he killed some aliens, he would naturally not be moved.
The pungent smell of blood quickly spread through the air.
This was a very dangerous thing to do in the jungle, and in just a moment, there seemed to be a slight noise all around.
Some ill-intentioned guys seem to be moving closer to this place.
Zheng Haotian's eyes flashed, he raised his head, and suddenly let out a long howl.
This howl was like a dragon roaring and a tiger's roar, accompanied by an incomparable killing aura, with him as the center, it suddenly spread out in all directions.
The jungle seemed to be silent for a moment, and then the restless atmosphere around it suddenly disappeared like the water of the ebbing tide.
His ears twitched slightly, and a satisfied smile appeared on Zheng Haotian's face.
All the beasts that tried to get close were frightened away by him at this moment, and among them, there was no shortage of overlord bears and wolves on Bear Wolf Mountain.
Of course, the bears and wolves that appeared here were not the berserk bear kings or the white-eyed wolf kings, otherwise Zheng Haotian would not have dared to roar and provoke so unscrupulously.
With a flip of the wrist, there was already an extra sharp dagger.
Zheng Haotian stabbed the clouded leopard in the abdomen with a knife, and after a few strokes, he had already disemboweled.
Skillfully plucked the leopard gall, he took out the kettle to clean it, and threw it directly into his mouth.
As he bit his teeth hard, a bitter taste with a fishy smell quickly spread into his mouth, and at this point, all his taste buds seemed to have only one experience left.
Bitter......
It's so bitter.
Swallowing all the bile into his stomach with difficulty, Zheng Haotian slowly closed his eyes, and the true qi in his body quickly boiled.
One after another of the true qi was magically born from the dantian, and the leopard gall turned into a powerful true qi at this moment, constantly filling his meridians, and finally flowing to the dantian.
A quarter of an hour later, all the bile had been completely digested by him, and his true qi had increased a little more.
However, at this time, Zheng Haotian's face did not show any excitement, but his brows were furrowed, and his face was full of regret.
It's not ......
Although his true qi had improved slightly, he was still a little short of being able to break through the limit of a beginner hunter.
At this time, a full year had passed since Zheng Haotian killed Xue Qili.
During this year, Yu Weihua and Lin Ting swallowed the Xiangyun Pill and retreated at home. Zheng Haotian was bored, so he had to go out to the mountains alone to hunt.
Over the course of a year, he had killed hundreds of mountain beasts.
In this area, he is already the king and hegemon as a human being, and even if he encounters a bear wolf, he has to take a detour.
In the mountains and forests, wolf meat, leopard meat and bear meat are all he must have, not only that, but under the stimulation of bear bile and leopard gall, his true qi has already had a sense of fullness three months ago.
According to Yu Jiansheng, this is a sign that he is about to break through to a beginner-level hunter and be promoted to an intermediate hunter.
It's just that this kind of omen has been there for three months, but no matter how much he swallows his gallbladder to increase his true qi, he has never been able to really cross this step.
However, his hard work was not in vain, and he vaguely had some kind of understanding.
I should lack some kind of opportunity, if I can encounter any chance, maybe this level can be crossed in one step.
Reaching out, he lifted the adult clouded leopard up like a kitten.
He came to the stream, skinned the clouded leopard and cramped it, lit a campfire and began to cook.
The rich aroma dispersed, but strangely enough, except for some herbivores who came here leisurely to drink, not a single carnivore dared to approach this place.
The beasts in the mountains were far more powerful than domestic animals, although they did not have intelligence, but they had instincts, and when Zheng Haotian killed too many large beasts in just one year, the fierce aura accumulated in his body was enough to make most creatures retreat.
He gulped down the leopard's meat, feeling wisps of heat permeate all over his body.
It's a wonderful feeling, and you want to indulge in it.
However, from Zheng Haotian's mouth, there was a long sigh of helplessness.
Over the past year, his strength, speed, stamina, and even hearing have improved in different ways, but alas, this seems to have reached a limit, and the rate at which he continues to improve is outrageously slow.
Even the leopard's speed gain is slow and difficult to feel.
He thought to himself that maybe it was time to try a different taste.
After eating and drinking, Zheng Haotian got up, patted his buttocks, and strode away with leopard skins, bones and other valuable things.
An hour after he left, carnivorous beasts appeared one after another, eating the remnants of the leopard's flesh cleanly, leaving nothing behind......
※※※※
After leaving the jungle, the sun in front of me suddenly became brighter.
Zheng Haotian raised his head and looked up, the dazzling sunlight seemed to have softened a lot.
In a few moments, he had returned home with a large leather bag on his back.
As soon as I arrived at the door, I already heard two extremely familiar voices in my ears. He was overjoyed, pushed the door in, and shouted, "Lin Ting, you succeeded?"
Hearty laughter suddenly came out, and Yu Weihua and Lin Ting walked out of the house side by side.
At this time, both of them released a faint, unusual aura on their bodies. Especially Lin Ting, his eyes flashed with a particularly bright essence.
"I succeeded. Lin Ting nodded heavily and said proudly.
Zheng Haotian laughed loudly, threw away the package in his hand, and pounced with open arms.
The three brothers hugged each other tightly, and then began to frolic again.
Yu Jiansheng and Zheng Chenglian shook their heads and smiled in the room, as if they were very dissatisfied with their childish actions. But in fact, in their eyes, it is full of generous doting.
"Alright. Yu Jiansheng waved his hand lightly and said, "Haotian, since you have come back, then the three of you will go to the city with me tomorrow." ”
Zheng Haotian was slightly stunned, he responded casually, but looked at the two friends with suspicious eyes.
Lin Ting smiled and said, "Uncle Yu said, as long as I can also be promoted to hunter, then take the three of us into the city to join the martial arts hall and learn real martial arts." ”
Zheng Haotian's eyes were faintly shining, and his heart was pounding.
After taking the Xiangyun Pill, Yu Weihua was successfully promoted to a beginner hunter half a year later, but it took Lin Ting a whole year to achieve his wish.
At the foot of Bear Wolf Mountain, as long as you can release your true qi, you can worship in the Xicheng Martial Arts Hall, and you can learn truly powerful martial arts at a very small price inside.
Although Yu Weihua and Zheng Haotian had become hunters a long time ago, they never mentioned it, but how could Lin Ting not know their thoughts.
However, with the friendship between the three of them, there is no need to repeat some polite words.
Fortunately, after half a year, Lin Ting finally broke through the limit smoothly and raised his true qi to the realm of a hunter who can release and hurt the enemy, so that he would not delay too much.
"Uncle Yu, can I go to the martial arts hall now?" Zheng Haotian asked in a deep voice.
Yu Jiansheng nodded slowly and said, "You are fourteen this year, and being promoted to hunter at this age is also a rare genius, but it is not terrifying, so you can go." ”
Zheng Haotian's face finally showed a smile of joy.
He had been waiting for this day for two years, and from tomorrow onwards, he would be able to truly show himself as a hunter.
Taking a deep breath, Zheng Haotian suddenly asked softly, "Lin Ting, what are your plans?" ”
The three brothers exchanged a look that only the three of them knew.
Lin Ting smiled slightly and said, "I promised to get ahead and let her pass through." Now, I have the qualifications. ”
"But what about the old guy?" asked Yu Weihua worriedly.
Lin Ting clenched his fists, and he said coldly: "I will continue to work hard, and one day, I will definitely be able to surpass him." ”
Zheng Haotian and Yu Weihua nodded at the same time, their eyes were unwavering, one day, they would definitely be able to surpass the middle-level hunters, and it was foreseeable that this day would definitely not be too long......
