Chapter 114 Preparing for Alchemy
Chapter 114 Preparing for Alchemy
In the blink of an eye, Wu Ren was radiating a dazzling golden light, and his right hand transformed into an indestructible blade, slashing fiercely at the flying centipede with lightning speed.
His right hand moved with the ease of slicing tofu, effortlessly severing the two-meter-long head of the flying centipede.
The headless flying centipede did not die immediately; its body writhed violently, instantly clearing a large area in the dense forest.
It's unclear whether it was a last-ditch effort or a desperate struggle before death.
However, all of this was in vain; having lost its head, it was destined to have no hope whatsoever.
At the same moment as Wu Ren, Kuang Zheng also made a decisive move.
His hands moved like lightning, delivering a fierce hand chop to the Flame Wolf. The Flame Wolf's body was as thick as a mountain, but its ten-meter-square neck was incredibly fragile before Kuang Zheng's hand chop, instantly being severed in two.
Just as Wu Ren and Kuang Zheng launched their thunderous offensive, Ying Yue seized the opportunity and launched a fierce attack on the ice bats without any mercy.
She moved with agility, approaching the ice bat like a ghost, her hands flashing with cold light as she aimed straight for the ice bat's vital part—its head.
This series of sudden and fierce attacks caught the beasts completely off guard, leaving them no time to react effectively before they perished on the spot.
When the Fire Wolf's head slammed heavily onto the ground, its round eyes were filled with disbelief and shock, as if it couldn't believe that it had lost its life so easily.
The flying centipede not far from it was in an equally miserable state. Until its last breath, it was still rolling its body, seemingly unwilling to accept its fate.
Although Ying Yue used all her strength, the gap between her initial stage of enlightenment and a level three beast was still too great.
Despite the surprise attack, and the fact that the attack targeted the opponent's most vulnerable point—the head.
However, the ice bat was only seriously injured and did not die immediately!
But that was enough, because Wu Ren and Kuang Zheng, standing to the side, would not give it any more chances.
In the blink of an eye, Kuang Zheng and Wu Ren's fierce attacks arrived almost simultaneously.
The ice bat, which had just fallen to the ground and hadn't even gotten up yet, stared wide-eyed in horror as it saw a gray aura rushing toward its head like lightning. At the same time, another golden aura, like a sharp sword, pierced straight toward its vital heart!
Faced with such a swift and deadly attack, the ice bats didn't even have time to react.
In an instant, two muffled "poof" sounds were heard, and two streams of spiritual energy containing terrifying destructive power had entered its body without any hindrance.
Once these two powerful forces entered the body, they were like two nuclear bombs suddenly exploding, releasing enormous destructive power.
That already enormous body was torn into several pieces by the violent impact, blood splattering everywhere, a scene of extreme gore and horror.
In the blink of an eye, the majestic ice bat was decapitated and died on the spot.
However, the battle did not end there, and Ying Yue, who was standing to the side, did not stop either.
At the very moment that Kuang Zheng and Wu Ren made their move, she waved her hand lightly, and two streams of purple spiritual energy roared out like dragons emerging from the sea.
At this moment, the two armored eagles that were still circling in the sky did not even have time to let out a warning cry before they were accurately struck by the two purple spiritual energies.
With two crisp cracking sounds of bones breaking, the two armored eagles plummeted straight down like kites with broken strings.
Seeing his companions dying one after another, the cunning Wentian Beast sensed something was wrong and immediately turned to flee.
But how could Ying Yue let it escape so easily?
Although it was outmatched by the Ice Bat, it was still a piece of cake to deal with the Sky-Listening Beast, which was at the first level!
With a flick of her wrist, she unleashed another burst of spiritual energy.
This spiritual energy moved incredibly fast, like a purple rainbow streaking across the sky.
The Heavenly Beast didn't even realize the danger approaching before its tiny head separated from its body and rolled far away.
In just a short time, the entire team, except for the Iron-Eating Beast, had perished.
It wasn't until the ice bat's soccer ball-sized head rolled more than half a meter across the ground that the iron-eating beast, which had been hiding in the grass nearby, realized something was wrong.
However, it was too late by then.
Facing the level-two beasts, Wu Ren and Kuang Zheng displayed an overwhelming advantage.
Wu Ren, in particular, has already stepped into the fusion stage of cultivation, and his strength is astonishing.
The outcome of this battle was predetermined from the very beginning.
In just two breaths, the once majestic Iron-Eating Beast's several enormous heads were easily severed.
With the battle over, the three began to clean up the battlefield.
Unlike in the past, this time their goal is not simply to obtain the beast core.
You should know that wild beasts can hide many precious things all over their bodies!
For example, the corpse of the ice bat, through a special refining process, can be made into a simplified version of the "Spirit Gathering Pill".
Although the efficacy of this pill is far inferior to that of the authentic Spirit Nourishing Pill refined using a complete beast core, it still possesses considerable effects.
You should know that this was someone they used to look down on as "trash".
But now everything has changed. Because they have fully integrated the inheritance within their bodies, they not only know more about cultivation, but also have many methods of alchemy and weapon crafting.
Therefore, not only are the cores of wild beasts useful, but their flesh, bones, and even venom are also excellent materials for alchemy and weapon crafting.
The simple Spirit Gathering Pill and the complete Spirit Gathering Pill are the refining methods obtained after integrating the inherited techniques.
Compared to beast cores, it has unparalleled advantages.
After all, if you were to wander around with a beast core, not only would a lot of the energy it contained be lost, but it would also be extremely inconvenient to carry around.
In comparison, elixirs are much better. Even a simplified version of the Spirit Nourishing Pill can cleverly resolve these problems.
Of course, obtaining a genuine Spirit Nourishing Pill would be the best possible outcome.
But under the current circumstances, having such an alternative is quite a good thing.
But right now they're so poor they're practically urinating blood, so where would they get the confidence to be picky?
Therefore, this time, they packed up and took everything they could possibly need without hesitation.
This plundering of these wild beasts can be described as reaching an almost insane level.
If these people hadn't had almost no need for food, they probably wouldn't have escaped even the flesh of that wild beast.
After a frenzied digging, the once relatively intact beast carcass became a gruesome sight, as if it had been viciously devoured.
Looking at their bountiful harvest, the three felt completely satisfied.
They had already planned this out, and they could take advantage of the opportunity presented by the large-scale manhunt and their forced hiding to refine a batch of pills.
Once this batch of pills is successfully refined, the group will no longer need to worry about the incredibly keen sense of smell of the Wentian Beast.
The reason was simple: among the pills they were about to refine was a magical pill called the "Hidden God Pill".
This elixir has no other function but one thing: it can completely change a person's aura characteristics in a short period of time.
In this way, as long as they take the Concealing God Pill, these people will be able to completely say goodbye to the days when they are relentlessly pursued by the Wentian Beast.
Once the Sky-Listening Beast stops tracking it, the Ironclad Eagle will be left to fend for itself.
Because they lacked the precise directions provided by the Celestial Beast and information from the three humans.
Even the best eyesight of the Ironclad Eagle is useless, since they are not the only three who walk upright on the wilderness these days.
The "human" that the fruit spirit has transformed into is running around the world.
Without the surveillance of the Sky-Listening Beast and the Ironclad Eagle, can the inescapable net of Wild Mouth Ridge still live up to its name?
Once the "real-time monitoring" of the Sky-Listening Beast and the Ironclad Eagle is gone, will the three of them still be so timid and hesitant?
