Chapter 04: The White-eyed Jackal
"What sound??" The screams were very poignant and terrifying, and many of the students turned pale with fright, and they involuntarily clenched the weapons in their hands.
"Is that the voice of Mentor Redia? it seems to be the sound of a fight. The instructors slowly stood up, frowning and staring at the depths of the dense forest, but the fog seemed to be getting heavier and heavier, and the distance of sight was less than thirty meters, and they couldn't see the situation in the distance at all.
Arnold picked up the giant sword beside him and said in a deep voice, "You guys are waiting here, I'll go over and take a look." ”
"We'll go with you. The other two male instructors also drew their weapons.
Elinda suddenly stopped: "Wait...... Listen...... It seems that there is a voice......"
"What sound?"
"Huh......"
"Something is wrong!!"
Coo-goo!goo-goo!
Strange cries rang out all around, densely packed, accompanied by small, heavy gasps. The wildebeest by the river pricked up his ears and stared straight at the fog around him, snorting and slowly retreating, as if feeling a strong danger.
"That's ...... Damn, how could there be such a thing nearby!" Arnold's eyes narrowed slightly, and his expression changed color in horror.
"Everyone, be careful!!" Elinda's face sank like water, and she stood at the front of the line, and with a flick of her hand, a blue sword appeared in her hand, exuding a slight chill.
"Another demon beast, it's going to fight, look at me!" The students didn't see what it was, but instead of being nervous, they showed a hint of excitement.
One of the important reasons why the teams of the various family academies will hike through the psychedelic forest is to experience, so that they can experience the cruelty of the world and grow in the experience of fighting. What's more, each of them has the strength of a third-order martial artist, which is enough to resist the invasion of second-order demon beasts.
But soon, everyone's excitement was replaced by consternation, and all cheeks faded blood.
This is...... Oh my God, jackal? To be exact, a second-level demon beast white-eyed jackal!
None of this is the key, the key is ...... Densely packed, there are enough hundred!
The white-eyed jackal is only the size of a domestic cat, the whole body hair is snow-white, and even the eyes are white, it looks hollow and weird, and it is very crazy! The white-eyed jackal has an amazing speed, likes to eat people, and often haunts the dense forest in groups, and even the fourth-level demon beasts have to be avoided from afar, not to mention ...... Arnold and the others unexpectedly found more than a dozen xenos with golden retrievers on their foreheads in this group of white-eyed jackals.
The mutant species of the white-eyed jackal, or the evolutionary species, can evolve into a third-level or even fourth-level demon beast depending on the number and color of the golden retriever.
"You crow's mouth!" Du Yang cursed in a low voice, his face extremely solemn.
This is called the prophet of the unknown. Tang Yan looked curiously at this seemingly cute but actually mad demon beast, and moved back without a trace. Just came to this world, there are still many unknown things, like this strange species, Tang Yan has only seen it in science fiction movies, but he feels curious, and he is not really afraid.
Now more thoughts are still on Yang Ruyan and Li Shouze, for fear that these two will have bad intentions again.
"The white-eyed jackal is fast and ferocious by nature, and all the students work in groups of three to take care of each other. Arnold stared at the white-eyed jackal with two golden hairs on the top of his head in the wolf pack, this should be a fourth-level demon beast, looking at those smart and cruel eyes, as if he had spirituality, it was likely to be a fourth-level peak, even stronger than himself.
"White-eyed jackals shouldn't roam this area. Elinda's brow furrowed slightly, her vigilant gaze peering through the mist into the depths of the forest, trying to find other traces.
Arnold said in a deep voice: "It seems that we guessed correctly, someone must be deliberately trying to delay our time!"
"Delay, I don't think it's that simple!" Elinda's expression grew heavier. If it was just to stall for time, there was no need to attract such a large group of white-eyed jackals here.
This is to ...... Homicide??!!
The rest of the mentors all changed their faces, that's right, if you just delay time, there is no need to get so many jackals, the three screams just now are likely to be Rhadia and the three mentors.
Killing? Killing!
"Everyone remember, this is not an experience, it's a battle to the death, everyone shoots immediately, and the battle is quick and fast!!" Elinda Jiao shouted, the blue sword in her right hand vibrated slightly, and the ice brilliance was agitated, and she took the lead in rushing into the jackals, her body was like a colorful butterfly dancing, and it was like a cheetah stabbing stab, and the blue long sword in her hand danced out bursts of brilliance, and the Dao Dao Wind Blade swept away, ruthlessly killing the white-eyed wolves around her.
The wolves looked hideous, slowly took a few steps back, and then ...... With a strange roar, he rushed towards the team like an arrow.
Don't look at their petite size, but the speed of their ejection is extremely amazing, as well as the dense momentum and hideous appearance, which makes many students pale, and Tang Yan in the back also feels a tingling scalp.
"Kill!!" The thick roar shook the audience, Arnold was like a mad beast, running wildly and proudly bombarding, the giant sword in his hand tore out of the golden brilliance, the cruel crippled three jackals, faintly, the strong body surface actually had Jinhua circulating, like a thin layer of armor draped on the body, looking heroic and extraordinary.
Mentor Arnold's bravery aroused the fighting spirit of the audience, and the three martial spirit pinnacle-level mentors each used their martial arts skills to meet the jackals, creating as much momentum as possible, trying to attract the attention of the jackals to their side.
But...... The number of jackals was huge, and in the hissing roar of the fourth-level wolf king, nearly fifty jackals avoided the instructor and pounced on the students, and the current dozen or so jackals rushed up violently and viciously pounced on the students in front of them.
"The more you retreat, the easier it is to fall into passivity, everyone, kill! Cross Wind Blade!" Li Shouze's expression was cold, and he took the lead in making a move, with a clear shout, the two short swords crossed and slashed, and the two light cyan wind blades shot into the air, splitting the oncoming jackal into four pieces in an instant, and the scarlet blood and minced flesh were splashed in the air like fireworks.
"Okay!!" The students were slightly shaken, and finally mustered up their fighting spirit and performed moves one after another to meet the jackals.
Yang Ruyan's body was like a ghost, shaking out a fleeting afterimage, and he rushed directly into the jackals, and the two colored swords danced with brilliant brilliance, looking even more dazzling.
Tang Yan's face was full of surprise, staring at the warriors who were killing in the field, it was really a magical continent, and it could really control the wind and fire?
The more I looked, the more I felt magical, the more I watched, the more I felt excited, knock, knock, the strange drum sound echoed in my mind again, and a touch of killing intent grew in my heart.
Tang Yan couldn't help but tighten his hands, guiding the spiritual power to converge on his hands, and the magical thing happened again, and small flames appeared on his ten fingers, showing a bleak cyan, but it was not too hot.
Do you want to try it?
Tang Yan was eager to try, but ...... A strange voice sounded behind him, Tang Yan's heart was slightly frightened, and he subconsciously dodged to the side, just at this moment, a white light swept across his cheek, and then there was a sharp tingling and moist feeling.
Tang Yan covered the cheeks left behind and looked at it, and not far away, a white-eyed jackal was staring at him with his teeth bared, and there were a few yellowed hairs on the top of his head, which was not ordinary at first glance.
Damn! Lao Tzu is innocent! Tang Yan's heart trembled, and he resolutely ran into the battle circle, but seeing the students who had fallen into a bitter battle, and thinking about the popularity of Tang Ergongzi, it seemed that no one would have the leisure to help him, but he might be secretly framed by Yang Ruyan. Secretly gritted his teeth, his expression was ruthless, and Tang Yan, who hadn't run a few steps, turned around and rushed towards the dense forest.
The white-eyed jackal didn't intend to let Tang Yan go, and chased after him with a whooshing sound.
A moment later, there was a terrible scream in the woodland.
The white-eyed jackal came like the wind, and it was amazingly fast, Tang Yan only felt that there were bursts of afterimages in front of him, leaving hideous wounds on his body, and the pain was unbearable and the blood flowed endlessly.
Yang Ruyan in the battlefield always looked at Tang Yan distractedly, and saw that he was chased into the dense forest by a white-eyed jackal, and secretly said that this guy would definitely die, but for the sake of insurance, he still gave a look to Yuan He, a student who belonged to the Yang family, without a trace. Yuan He, who was in the fringe area at the moment, nodded quietly, and while dealing with the white-eyed jackals that came one after another, he dragged them to move towards the depths of the dense forest.
Du Yang accidentally noticed the scene here, and didn't want to be nosy, and continued to deal with the jackal in front of him, but ...... More than ten seconds later, he secretly gritted his teeth, his face hesitated, and he broke free from the killing of the white-eyed jackal and rushed into the dense forest.
The battlefield was chaotic, the white-eyed jackals were getting more and more crazy, Arnold and the others went all out, the students were too busy to take care of themselves, no one paid attention to the situation here, and even if there were, they didn't care too much. Treating a young master like Tang Yan, they don't have much good impression at all.
In the woodland, Tang Yan was covered in blood, and the wolf who was tortured by this jackal was unbearable, but ...... Gradually, his eyes became more and more cold, his expression became more and more hideous, and a touch of madness gradually grew in his heart, and after a while, he roared and shook his body violently, this time, he narrowly avoided the killing of the white-eyed jackal.
Because of extreme sports, Tang Yan has learned a lot of martial arts self-defense moves, and his skills are flexible and strong, if it weren't for this body being too weak, maybe the situation would be much better.
With his feet shaking the ground, his waist exerting his strength, his fists clenched violently, and he took the afterimage rushing in front of him, at this moment, the strange drum sound in his mind roared, and the essence of his whole body surged towards the right fist acupoint like crazy, and the thin cyan flame suddenly became intense, and even the speed of the fist was a few points faster.
Bang!!
The fist hit the jackal's head, and with a subtle click, it screamed and flew upside down on its back, crashing into the nearby tree.
Tang Yan didn't expect to be killed with one punch, he took a deep breath, and prepared to fight again, but something strange happened, the cyan flames quickly covered the white-eyed jackal's whole body, as if it had some kind of life, and the jackal let out a terrible scream, rushing left and right in the forest, but it was never able to get rid of the burning of the flames.
What's going on?
The wolf screamed and struggled in pain, and let out a desperate wail, and it took three or four minutes for the white-eyed jackal to stop struggling, and curled up in place, and said no more.
The cyan flames continued to burn its corpse.
Tang Yan seemed to have been drained of all his strength, his chest was full of breath, his feet trembled, and he sat on the ground with a bang, looking at his fist in disbelief. What happened just now? It was the sound of drums, and it was the movement of spiritual power, although he successfully threw an extremely violent punch, but the cyan flame seemed to instantly absorb ninety percent of his spiritual power.
At this moment, Tang Yan was weak, panting heavily, his forehead and back were full of sweat.
After a while, the burning cyan flame gradually extinguished, and the white-eyed jackal was burned to ashes.
No, what's that?
After the flame was extinguished, a colorless liquid the size of a grain of rice appeared on the ground, and the brilliance flowed, charming and eye-catching, and a trace of pure energy escaped.
Tang Yan was secretly strange, and cautiously approached the past, this is the crystal nucleus? No! Although this Tang Ergongzi does not learn and has no skills, he is still clear about some basic common sense, only powerful to the fifth level demon beast can condense a refined energy body in the body, named the crystal nucleus by the martial artist, which contains surging life force and energy source power, which is the lifeblood of the powerful demon beast, and it is the treasure in the eyes of the martial artist.
But the fifth-level demon beasts are all terrifying beings comparable to the martial king level, and they have a certain amount of intelligence, except for those royal families or super families, not many people dare to hunt the fifth-level demon beasts to maybe the crystal nucleus.
But...... What is it?
Tang Yan carefully picked up this drop of liquid, pondered for a moment, and his spirit lifted slightly, could it be because of the cyan flame?
Thinking about it another way, wouldn't this cyan flame be able to refine the creature and condense it into a spiritual power essence?
It's a little simpler, as long as you catch your prey, you can condense all their energy and absorb it all?
If that's really the case......
Tang Yan was excited in his heart, the martial artists of this world basically relied on their own cultivation to absorb energy, or to absorb the elixir, but the elixir was more precious than the demon core, and it was not possible to eat it casually.
But he can actually use flames to refine the corpse and condense it, this advantage is enough to give him a unique advantage in absorbing energy.
With the attitude of trying, Tang Yan put this drop of liquid in his mouth, and in an instant, the surging pure energy spread to the whole body, the muscles and veins that had just dried up were replenished, and the surging source power roamed freely in the body, moisturizing the tendons and veins. The little source power that escaped was still slowly repairing the fleshy and bloody body, and replenishing the power consumed.
