The Hengduan Forest stretches for thousands of miles and is lush and green. There are many mountains and valleys in it, and there are also various underworld beasts, which are full of opportunities and dangers for cultivators.
Shi Jiu's goal was very clear, to hunt ordinary animals or the lowest-level underworld beasts as food for the next few days. At this moment, Shi Jiu, who was walking in the forest, was inspecting everything around him and thinking about how to hunt prey. In this way, after walking through the jungle for most of the morning, Shi Jiu finally saw his first prey - a pheasant.
"Okay, it's up to you." Looking at the pheasant in front of him, Shi Jiu did not pounce on it immediately. He knew that he had no experience in catching pheasants with his bare hands, and the only thing that could help was the dagger given to him by Brother Li. This dagger helped him kill a Moon Howling Wolf before.
Without disturbing the pheasant, Shi Jiu quietly approached and hid behind a big tree. Then he quietly raised the dagger in his hand and secretly performed his martial arts. At the moment when Pheasant raised his head, Shi Jiu quickly shot out the dagger that had gathered its power. With a scream, the dagger hit the pheasant's body. Seeing this, Shi Jiu rushed forward and grabbed the pheasant that was flapping its wings.
"Yes, today's dinner is settled." Shi Jiu felt excited. After all, this was the first prey he had caught with his own hands.
"I wonder if the blood of this pheasant can attract the underworld beast?" Shi Jiu looked at the pheasant in his hand and thought of Brother Li and the others who used the blood of the black-lipped deer to attract the hyena-mouthed pig.
Although he was not sure, Shi Jiu decided to give it a try. So Shi Jiu found a smaller open space, slit the pheasant's neck with a dagger, and after the blood was drained, he placed the pheasant on the bloody ground, then climbed a big tree next to the mountain and waited for the prey to arrive. .
"I hope I won't waste my pheasant." Looking at the pheasant on the ground, Shi Jiu thought to himself.
While waiting for his prey, Shi Jiu didn't waste any time and started running his skills to attract the Ming Yuan around him.
As time passed by, Shi Jiu, who had been in the tree for most of the afternoon, felt a little discouraged when he saw that no prey had come to the door yet. Just when Shi Jiu had the idea of going back, there was movement in the woods ahead, and suddenly a hyena-mouthed pig jumped out.
After seeing that it was a hyena-mouthed pig, Shi Jiu suddenly became excited, "God has treated me well, and still let me wait for the prey." After being excited, Shi Jiu began to figure out how to kill this big meal that was delivered to his door.
Upon seeing this, after observing the surroundings for a while, the hyena-mouthed pig slowly approached the pheasant on the ground. When it was about to lower its head and bite the pheasant's neck, Shi Jiu, who saw the right time, immediately jumped down from the tree. , and then stabbed the hyena-mouthed pig into the head with a dagger.
After feeling the severe pain in his head, the hyena pig screamed in panic and struggled to run deeper into the jungle. However, Shi Jiu didn't give it a chance. After tossing the pig's head with a dagger, the pig fell to the ground. Seeing the hyena pig lying on the ground, Shi Jiu felt excited.
After the excitement, Shi Jiu began to search for the underworld core. After all, the underworld core was the most valuable thing on the underworld beast. After some searching, he couldn't find it, and Shi Jiu was not disappointed. He knew that the chance of low-level pigs producing Hades Cores was very small. However, Shi Jiu was still very happy to be able to kill the Hyekou Pig alone.
After dealing with the hyena pig for a while, Shi Jiu carried today's prey on his back. Although the hyena pig weighs more than 100 kilograms, Shi Jiu, who has embarked on the path of cultivation, is not too heavy to carry on his back at all. It is obvious that Shi Jiu is already in the heroic realm, and all aspects of his body have been greatly improved.
Shi Jiu found a small stream and started skinning and removing the bones to prepare for tonight's feast. After many attempts to drill wood to make a fire, a small flame finally rose. After carefully growing the fire, Shi Jiu used sharpened branches to skewer the pork, then placed it on tree branches stuck in the ground on both sides of the fire, and slowly roasted it.
"It's a pity that there is no seasoning." Shi Jiu felt a little regretful, but the smell of meat attracted him again. Towards evening, Shi Jiu finally roasted tonight's delicacy, then cut off a piece with a dagger, put it in his mouth and chewed it.
"It tastes pretty good." Shi Jiu commented to himself while chewing. After eating nearly a quarter of the barbecue, Shi Jiu burped with satisfaction, then put out the fire and walked towards the cave with the remaining food.
After returning to the cave, Shi Jiu did not fall asleep immediately, but opened the Po Shan Code. He wanted to find some secret techniques or moves. Po Shan Dian is a book on martial arts. Although there are some explanations of some moves, it is too simple. After all, when fighting against others, the martial arts are the foundation, and moves such as boxing are the focus. After turning to the last page, Shi Jiu finally found the secret skill he wanted - Poshan Plum Blossom Hand.
Poshan's Plum-Breaking Hand is a secret close combat technique that allows the underworld to flow through special meridians in the arm and uses the joints and wrists to exert force. It can be practiced to the extreme to ignore the opponent's body defense. However, if you want to practice this secret skill, your own strength must reach the third level of Qi realm, because only by reaching the Qi realm can you open the special meridians in your arms.
Looking at the introduction of Poshan Plum-Breaking Shou, Shi Jiu couldn't help but think of a martial art in the TV series Tianlong Babu that he had watched in his previous life - Tianshan Plum-Breaking Shou. They have similar names and similar uses.
"It's a pity that you have to reach the spirit realm to practice, otherwise you will hurt your arm." Although he is temporarily unable to practice, Shi Jiu still knows this secret skill by heart.
"After we leave here, we have to find a way to get some secret moves, otherwise we will be at a disadvantage when fighting against others." Shi Jiu thought to himself.
The next day, Shi Jiu did not go out hunting again because yesterday's food could still last for two days. Since he had just entered the Heroic Soul Realm and his realm was still unstable, Shi Jiu still practiced the Soul Mountain Code to stabilize his current realm. On the fourth day, after eating almost all the food, Shi Jiu decided to go hunting again. After making some preparations, he walked deep into the dense forest.
This time, Shi Jiu changed direction and walked along the stream in the forest. After changing the direction, his luck seemed to be better. Half an hour later, Shi Jiu saw something drinking water by the river in the distance. After getting a little closer, Shi Jiu took a closer look at the creature in front of him. This is a turtle-like animal with a carapace covering its back and long hairs on its limbs. Although he didn't know what it was, Shi Jiu still treated it with caution. It should be noted that when a lion fights a rabbit, he also uses his full strength.
Although Shi Jiu was very careful, he still caught the attention of the creature in front of him. Upon seeing Shi Jiu approaching, the turtle-like animal immediately stopped drinking water and then let out a low roar at Shi Jiu. Hearing the sound that sounded so much like a cow's braying, Shi Jiu couldn't hold back his laughter.
Shi Jiu's actions obviously angered the creature in front of him. Immediately afterwards, the turtle-like animal rushed towards Shi Jiu, and at the same time spit out a water column from its mouth and shot it towards Shi Jiu. Looking at the angry "tortoise", Shi Jiu immediately stopped laughing. After barely dodging the water column attack, the turtle-like animal also rushed in front of Shi Jiu.
Shi Jiu knew he couldn't hide, so he kicked the "tortoise" hard, hoping to kick the "tortoise" away. However, the picture he expected did not appear, and instead was knocked away by the thick tortoise shell. After landing, Shi Jiu did not rush to attack, but hid behind a big tree when he was not paying attention.
This is obviously an underworld beast, and it can knock Shi Jiu flying. It is most likely a second-level underworld beast. When Shi Jiu was thinking about how to deal with the underworld beast in front of him, the tortoise-shaped underworld beast had already walked to the big tree where Shi Jiu was hiding, but it didn't notice Shi Jiu and kept walking forward. When it was about to pass by the tree, Shi Jiu saw the right moment and kicked it hard in the neck.
This sudden kick immediately knocked it to the ground.
Looking at the underworld beast with its legs in the air, Shi Jiu said fiercely: "As long as you are a turtle, you are afraid of this move. Although I don't know what you are, you didn't run away." Then, while the "turtle" underworld beast was still there, Before it could recover, Shi Jiu immediately stabbed its head with a dagger. After a while of stirring, there was no movement at all.
